Bilateral Atomic Energy Agreement -- Exchange of Military
Jnf.QEmation. (Telephone . conversation_ with. Mr. Glazebrook
on June 71
At Mr. Wershof's request I telephoned Mr.
Glazebrook and told him the following:
1) That we had just heard through Mr. Bennett
that the Committee on Atomic Energy in Congress
had informed the United States Atomic Energy
Commission that they would insist upon the declassification of the Bilateral Agreement on
Civil Atomic Co-operatlonps soon as the Agreement
has been submitted tol45^6ongressional committee,
as provided under the new Atomic Energy Agreement;
2) That this would presumably affect the bilateral
agreement relating to co-operation in the military
field;
3) That a telegram i*s on its way to the Embassy
transmitting the decision of Cabinet Defence Committee
that afternoon; that Cabinet Defence Committee had
agreed to the initialling of the Agreement on Military
Co-operation subject to three conditions, including
that the Agreement should be kept classified until
it had been signed at the conclusion of the thirtydays required under the United States Atomic Energy
legislation; and

- 2 4) That the Embassy should not take action on
the telegram of instructions until they are
satisfied that all three conditions laid
down by Cabinet Defence Committee could in
fact be satisfied, Including the condition
regarding security classification of the
Agreement.
2.
Mr. Glazebrook said that he had not heard
about the position taken by the Joint Congressional
Committee; that the Embassy would be careful not to take
action on the Agreement on Military Co-operation until
they are satisfied that the conditions laid down by
Cabinet Defence Committee could be carried out and reported to this Department on Wednesday by telephone about
the point concerning classification.
