Hi, Fred.
Yes, sir.
Did you get the stuff yet?
Yes, sir.
They're making us a copy now.
We have identified it.
It is all positively related.
The other pieces is a synthesis of the original document.
Some of it is, well, there's one memo from John Dean to...
the Attorney General, with reference to this.
There are several memos by, I guess, two, three, four, five, six, six memos from Tom Houston, who was a White House rep for this agency committee, to Bob Haldeman, kind of giving him progress reports.
They all date between July 1970 and September 21, 1970.
All related to the same subject.
and the whole business of this internal intelligence.
Well, I can assure you it was done.
And it wasn't very successful either.
We are moving out, Mr. President, to control this document.
Okay, it should be.
The Justice Department have evolved.
We're asking the committee to initial the document and it be stored for the MSI here on that call.
Good job, Fred.
Thank you, sir.
