BARMINE asked SURINE if he could tell him over the phone as to Just why he wanted to see him, but SURINE said that it could not be discussed telephonically. As BARMNE still remonstrated against seeing SURINE, the latter finally told him that he did not want to ask him any questions but rather, "I want to state something to you". At this point BARMENE thought that possibly SURINE had a subpoena for him and had used the pretext of wanting to see him as an opportunity 6f serving him with such. He, therefore, asked SURINE to come to his office in the VOA which SURINE did, and then he and SURINE went to a nearby Schraffts bar. BARMINE commented that he was very sorry that he had not taken someone with him to meet SURINE in view of what occurred. BARMINE said SURINE opened the conversation with some remark to the effect that he "had worked on me in Baltimore" when he was in the FBI. He then told BARMINE that he was representing McCARTHY; that they were aware of the statemnts BARMINE had made relative to LATTIMORE and the IPR, and that they wanted BARMIWE to put these into the form of an l affidavit. EARMTFE said that SURINE did not say he was fro the FBI but he definitely did indicate in his manner and comments that what information they had had come from the FBI. He said that SURINE, apparently to &#39; emphasize his connection with the FBI, had displayed to him a "pin" or a "medal" which indicated how many years he had been with the FBI. BARMENE said that he immediately told SURINE that he would make no affidavit, that he did not appreciate the manner in which SURINE had approached him, and he wanted nothing further to do with the matter. He then left SURINE. On, BARMINE thinks, Thursday, March 30th, the newspapers carried the story to the effect that he, BARHINE, "had made an affidavit" regarding LATTINORE. Ap arently as a result of this, BARMINE was summoned to the office of his "VO§FHIEF" and questioned concerning the matter. _L<l13 r ¢ i < i 1 1 Q 5
