 advise Mr. Davidson and Major iceyhoe of. this action.
 4. 1 think we can use this procedure as i precedent
 1. tojor Byrne's office (A:CI'i) was contacted in regard to
 the release of the panel report to Hz. Davidson and Major Keyhoe.
 I was rererred to Major Tacrer, Office of the Secretary of Air
 Force Information Service (SOM).
 2,6  In response to our query as to whether Air Force had
 any objection to our cnswering these letters enclosing a copy
 of the. panel report, Major Tacker indicated that he had rather
 the CIA twrward the letters to him with copies of the unclassi-
 fied report and he will answer the letters.  He stated that the
 Air Force is endeavoring to impress.upon Major Aeyhoc and others
 in a eimilar position, that his office is the proper place to
 core for such information.
 3.  Innew of n3r conversation with} Tacker, I callsd
 FF:ank Chapin the DDCI's ofiiee and advised him that the
 Force no  onJ.y preferred to answer the letters, but war
 neat insistent that they be permitted to answer them. He,
 therefore, is going to send the letters to b'ajor Tacker aa,t
