New Cuban Raids: Kennedy Says Attacks Don't Advance Cause

President John Kennedy: "I think when these issues of war and peace hang in the balance that the United States Government and authorities should and when American territories are being used, they should have a possession of some position of some control on the matter. We don't think they're effective, we don't think they weaken Castro, we don't think, rather hastily organized, to raid, which maybe shoots up a merchant ship, kills some crewmen comes back holds a press conference, doesn t seem to us that represents a serious blow to Castro and in fact it may assist him in maintaining his control. We distinguish between those actions in which we feel advances the cause of freedom and these hit and run raids which we do not feel advance the cause of freedom and were attempting to discourage those."

August 1, 1994 - Part 3
(13:40:32) Ms. KuLKA. That's correct. The CHAIRMAN. Was recusal, which was on the briefing sheet, discussed during this 4 to 6 hours with Mr. Altman? MS. KULKA. Yes. The CHAIRMAN. To what length? I'm asking you to give me an estimate. You obviously don't have a stopwatch. Ms. KULKA. We probably may have spent 15 or 20 percent of the time that we discussed bow we would respond to all requests on Madison on the recusal issue. The CHAIRMAN. Wouldn't it then have been-you did some of this briefing, I think, even the day before the hearing. Am I correct in that? Ms. KULKA. I think-1 can't recall. It was Monday or Tuesday night, whether it was Wednesday night I can't remember The CHAIRMAN. The point is, it came very shortly before the hearing. Ms. KULKA. That's correct. The CHAIRMAN. And part of the question we have to ask ourselves is would it have been reasonable for Mr. Altman to have remembered the subject of recusal, which bad been the focus of, you percent of the briefing time? You discussed it a short time hand. It was on the briefing document that he bad., We have ether or not it was reasonable that, in the scope of the operations he was asked, he would have mentioned that issue. As I be did not, ' Ms. KULKA. Senator, I don't want to mislead you. We did not spend 15 or 20 percent of the time discussing his recusal issue with the White House. That was in passing. He put it down on his pro posed answer. The time we spent discussing recusal dealt with recusing whether a Senator asked a direct question about why he wasn't recusing himself or what he expected to do, and how he would talk 60 about his understanding of the way in which he would proceed, how he had instructed us in handling the matter, and so forth. The CHAIRMAN. I appreciate the point you're making and we' have a chance to hear from him on that question. Senator Sarbanes. is asking for- Senator SARBANES. Could I just got a clarification? Was the briefing of Altman And your work preparing for the briefing concern the whole activities of the RTC? Ms. KuLKA. That's correct. Senator SARBANES. What portion of the briefing related to Madi-son and Whitewater would you say? Ms. KULKA. Maybe 35, 40 percent, Senator SARBANES. OF, Thank you, The CHAIRMAN. You know, I think that begs another question. Was the recusal issue, that you said took 20 percent of the briefing time, on some issue other than Madison and Whitewater, or was it just on that issue? KULKA. It was on that issue, sir. It would have been maybe 15 to 20 percent of the time we spent on Madison, which would have made it a smaller amount of time in the briefings. I just- The CHAIRMAN. Senator D'Amato. Senator DAMATO, Thank you, Mr. Chairman, I'm not going to' take all my time. I'm going to yield my time to Senator Mack. Regarding the preparation for that meeting, that Chairman Riegle spoke about, on February 24, 1994, wasn't there a preparation of Q's and As regarding contacts between Treasury and the White House? Ms. KuLKA. There were questions posed, sir, yes. Senator D'AMATO. Was it a Q and A? Ms. KULKA. Yes. Senator D'AMATo. About the contacts between Treasury and the' White House? Ms. KULKA. That's correct. Senator DAMATO. And that was about Madison and the contacts between Treasury and the White House re: Madison, it wasn't about anything else. Right? Ms. KuLKA. I don't have it in front of me, sir, but my recollection was that it was about Mr. Altman's contacts. Senator D'AMATO. With the White House? Ms. KULKA. That's correct. Senator D'AMATO. As it related to Madison? Ms. KULKA. That's correct. Senator D'AMAT0. Didn't the answers specifically make reference to the recusal discussion on February 2, 1994? Ms. KuLKA. That is my recollection. Senator D'AMAT0. So recusal answers were actually prepared as it related to the Madison matter whether or not he was going to recuse himself. Is that correct? Ms. KULKA. And his discussions with the White House as it related to that. There were two different sets of Q's and As that would have dealt with it. One would have been in the context of what his discussion with the White House bad covered and the other would have been directly on the issue of recusal, 61 Senator D'AMATO. To. Before the February 2, 1994, White House meeting, did anyone ask you for authorization or advice on what to say at that meeting? Ms. KULKA. I'm sorry? Senator D'AMATo. In other words, there was a meeting on February 2, 1994, where Mr. Altman met with Bernie Nussbaum, Maggie Williams, and others on the White House staff. Were you consulted about that meeting and were you asked any advice as to what they should or shouldn't say? Ms. KuLKA. I was unaware of that meeting until the Q and A session several weeks later. Senator D'AMATO. That's substantially what we know of it, Would you have approved a briefing of the White House or any other private party that disclosed the progress of the Madison/ Whitewater inquiry? ' ? Ms. KuLKA. I don't know what you mean by "progress," sir. Senator DAMATO. Status of the case,

August 1, 1994 - Part 3
(13:45:45) Ms. KuLKA. I don't know that anyone-I really don't even know if Mr. Altman knew the status of the case.Senator DAmATo. I'm not asking that. I said would you have approved it? I'm not asking you to get ahead or to try to anticipate what went on at that meeting. I said would you have approved a briefing to the White House or to any private party that disclosed the progress of a case under inquiry? Ms. KuLKA. I don't know what you mean by progress, sir. I don't mean to be argumentative, but our Q's and A's, I think, to some degree, were prepared to discuss some of the procedural aspects, if we were asked that by the Committee. If that is what you mean as progress, I think we would have been prepared to talk about the date that had been originally set for the expiration of the statute and tolling and so on. Senator D'AMATO. Didn't you prepare and send to the staff a memo of February 4, 1994, in which you instructed the RTC officials what areas they should not discuss? Ms. KULKA. That's correct. I did prepare one, and talked about what they were limited to discussing. Senator D'AmATo. Isn't it a fact that that February 4, 1994, memo does not authorize any discussions with non-RTC officials about the likelihood of requiring a tolling agreement from private Parties in the Madison case? Ms. KuLKA. It speaks for itself, sir, and I don't remember the words precisely. Senator D'AMATO. That's a fact. Isn't it a fact that your February 4, 1994, memo does not authorize any discussions with non-RTC of ficials about which particular RTC personnel were supervising the Madison investigation? Ms. KuLKA, I'm sorry, sir, but if 0 you's like to give it to me, I'll reread it. otherwise, you have it in front of ~ you, 'Senator Sarbanes. Mr. Chairman, if we re going to do this-is this Ms. Kulka's memo? ' Senator D'AMATO. Yes. February 4, 1994, and we have it, The CHAIRMAN. If you're asking to have it in front of you, I think You ought to be able to have it in front of you. Ms. KuLKA. I'm sorry to say I can't even read that. 62 Senator D'AMATO. Let's send one down--let's read them out loud, These are talking points for anyone authorized to discuss the Madi. son situation, additional information should not be supplied unless it has been properly approved. This is standard procedure and anyone authorized to speak should be aware that the discussion of any additional information could have an impact on the agency's legal position and any matters arising out of Madison. It's too bad that maybe they didn't have this before because, obviously, matters that are now rather contentious and the question of what they did speak about at that February 2, 1994, meeting could have been avoided. You have a list of eight different points., Does that refresh your recollection? Ms. KULKA. Yes, I have it in front of me now, sir. Senator D'AMATO. Isn't it a fact that the February 4, 1994, memo does not authorize any discussions with non-RTC officials about which particular RTC personnel were supervising the Madison investigation? Ms. KULKA. Unless it had been properly approved, sir. Senator D'AMATO. Correct. I yield the balance of my time to Senator Mack. Senator MACK. I thank my friend. How much time do you have left? Senator D'AMATO. I don't know. Three or 4 minutes. You can take it. Senator MACK, Mr. Roelle, you had testified that Mr. Stephen Katsanos informed you of a press inquiry regarding matters relating to Madison in October 1993, which is to say not September 1993, and didn't you then relay that information to Mr. Altman? Mr. RoELLE, Yes, sir. Senator MACK. Do you have any disagreement with the way I've laid out those dates? Mr. RoELLE. I don't recall exactly when I got the information from Mr. Katsanos. It was the E-mail that I referred to earlier in testimony today. I think be had forwarded a copy of it to me. Senator MACK. I think that was October 6, 1993, but I'm not positive. Mr. RoELLE. I had a subsequent normally scheduled meeting with the Treasury at Treasury. I related the fact that one of our Investigators had been questioned by a reporter regarding the criminal referrals. Senator MACK. What was Mr. Altman's response to that? Mr. ROELLE. He took it rather well. He didn't get upset and he didn't express any indignation. He just said thank you. Senator MACK. Was there any conversation with Ms. Hanson? Mr. ROELLE. Yes, he called Ms. Hanson on the phone and told her what I was telling you.

Sub Disaster : Nation Mourns 129 Lost In Test
"I conclude with great regret and sadness that the submarine Thresher is lost" with those words Admiral George Anderson, chief of naval operations mounted an epitaph for 129 men aboard the nuclear craft.

August 1, 1994 - Part 3
(13:50:32) Senator MACK. Mr. Roelle has indicated to us that on two different occasions Roger Altman directed Ms. Hanson with respect to the Madison matters. One, was either on September 24 or 27, 1993 ' you're not positive about the date, but I believe it was September 27, 1993, and the other was on October 6, 1993, when you informed Mr. Altman of the press information. And at that time, he directed Ms. Hanson to inform "Jack, Bernie, and the Secretary," I believe. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 63 The CHAMMAN. Senator Dodd. Senator DODD. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I don't think I'll need all of the time. Let me thank all four of you for being here. As I said the other day, one probably didn't assume that a year or so ago, you'd be as . iced to recall every conversation, thought, or hypothetical ques-tion in front of a Senate panel. It has been a panel for this purpose, so I want to thank you personally. All of you, have distinguished records and long service, and that should be noted as part of the record. I also want to associate myself with the questions raised by Senator Bryan and the concerns raised about the management issue of asking by statute to fill vacancies with only confirmable people. At that particular time in this Administration, it limited the decision to the Secretary of the Treasury and Mr. Altman, thus placing ourselves in a situation that invites the kind of problems and troubles that the OGE's office has identified, I'm hopeful we'll address that issue, but it's important to note that all of you seem to express the notion that Mr. Altman, as well, was concerned about this and trying to do the best job he could. I think it's important for the record to reflect that. I asked some very pointed questions, at the outset, in my line of questioning this morning, to get to the important questions for you, not hypothetical questions about what you would do if you were private attorneys or, in retrospect, what someone should or shouldn't do under political circumstances, and so forth. The issue for all four of you, but principally Mr. Ryan In and Ms. Kulka, is of what, if anything, happened as a result this information being shared? People have used the words "insider information" suggesting, in effect, that that information bad some impact or effect on the progress of the particular cases. There's a legitimate set of questions that will come to those witnesses about what information was shared and with whom, and we ought to look at that. The second set of questions, in my view, addresses the issue of what, then, was done with that information, and to what extent that information, then, affected or is affecting the progress of the particular case', the Madison case. ~ It seems to me you're in a unique position to answer the latter question, and your opinions regarding the first are certainly worthwhile, but only the witnesses who were involved directly in those conversations are going to shed the kind of light that this Committee needs to have. I want to focus this question, again coming back to the point, what were the implications, what actions either were suggested by the White House or the Treasury Department and what, if anything, did the RTC do with that information, if, in fact, it was shared or given to you? It was pointed out by you, Mr. Roelle, that the reason you keep referrals private is for two reasons. One is to protect the innocent. Their reputations can be ruined if that information gets out. The other reason is to not destroy a case to protect a case in effect. I would ask you whether or not that is true, if that is exactly why the rationale for keeping the referrals private is important? Mr. ROELLE. Yes, sir. 64 Senator DODD. Are you, or any of you here, aware of any evi-dence that the disclosures in this case either by the press or oth-ers, in any way altered the course of the referrals or enabled any-one to gain an unfair advantage? Mr. ROELLE. I am not, sir. Senator DODD. No advantage whatsoever? Mr. ROELLE. I am not aware of it. Senator DODD. Ms. Kulka? Ms. KuLKA. I am not. I have great concern about parts of our investigation- that keep getting released inappropriately and the effect that has on our ability
