The CIA was not involved in providing Israel with nuclear technology, despite the Israelis' request for assistance in developing an atomic weapon.

Several nuclear scientists were secretly sent to work with Dimona scientists, but this is false according to Mr. Angleton.

A British-born physicist working for the US Government had access to sensitive information and was involved in intelligence gathering related to the CIA's activities.

The CIA did not have control over any stocks of fissionable materials independently and could not acquire them without the knowledge of the Atomic Energy Commission.

Mr. Angleton stated that he never had a policy question about dealing with someone who claimed to have access to fissionable materials, but it was a problem in the agency once where someone approached him claiming to have access to such material.

Mr. Szulz mentioned that Mr. Angleton said that if Mann's name were to surface, he might go as far as to commit suicide.

Mr. Angleton stated that he did not recall saying this to Mr. Szulz but thought it was possible that he told Colby or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police about an open espionage case in which a report mentioned Dr. Mann being present or someone trying to cut his throat in Philby's house in Washington.

Mr. Angleton recounted the story of the transfer of atomic technology, stating that he was taken back by this information and made corrections, including changing the timeframe from the early '60s to an unspecified time period and stating that as far as he knew, there was no CIA involvement in delivering fissionable material.

The document discusses a meeting between Senator Tower and Mr. Angleton, a high-ranking official in the CIA's Counterintelligence Division, regarding the JFK assassination records.

Mr. Angleton testifies that he was informed by Golstein, a KGB defector, about the damage caused to the US by Soviet intelligence operations. He mentions that Golstein had access to archives and could have worked up information on agents who were under control as a result of Golstein's disclosures.

The conversation turns to the topic of liaison between the CIA and other government agencies, with Mr. Angleton expressing his views on the importance of having a clear chain of command and avoiding dual authorities.

Senator Baker asks Mr. Angleton about his views on the Rockefeller Commission reports, and he responds that he doesn't see anything wrong with them. The conversation also touches on the topic of Chile and the potential damage to US posture abroad if sensitive information falls into the wrong hands.

The meeting is adjourned at 6:05 p.m., subject to the call of the Chair.
