Dear Mr . Weberman :

Reference i s made t o your letter in behalf of your client ,

Mr . Irvin Dana Beal, received January 9, 1978 , appealing a
decision of Mr. Thomas A. Trombly , Freedom of Information
Officer , United States Secret Service , denying you certa i n
information under the F reedom of In fo rmation Act . Treasury
regulations regarding admini strative appeals of initia l
d enial s by the United States Secret Service vest the revi ew
a uthority in the Deputy Director of the Secret Ser vice (31
Code of Federal Regulati ons , Subtitle A, Part 1, Appendix D
a nd 40 Federal Registe r 49089, dated October 21 , 1975) .

The records and correspondence pertinent to your a ppeal have

been rev iewed . I have determined that the e x emptions clai med
by Mr . Trombly in his letter of December 1 5 , 1 9 77 were
p roper . Th e Secre t Service r ecords contain inve stigatory
info rmation compi l e d fo r law enforceme nt p urposes . Pu~suant
to Title 5 , United States Code , Section 552, Subsection
(b) (7) (C) , (D) ,(E), a nd ·(F) , information is be i ng withheld
since d isclosure would constitut e an unwar rant ed invasion of
personal privacy , disclose the identity of a confidential
source a nd/or i nformation f urni shed by a confidenti a l source ,
d isclose investigative t ec hni q u es and procedures , or endang er
the life or physical safety o f l aw enforcement personne l .

In addition, purs uant to Subsection (b ) (5) , Secret Service

information is being withhe ld since it c ont ains i ·n t er- agency
or intra- agency memoranda or letters which would not be
a vailable by l aw to a party other than an a gency in litigation

accordance with subsection (b ) (2 ) as matters r e l a t ing so l ely ·
t o interna l proceedings . The above c ited exempt i ons are not
to be construed as the only exemptions which may be app licabl e
to these d ocuments under the Freedom of I n formation Act .

I have a lso determined that certain information in the files

may be p rope rly disc l osed to you . The documents containing
that information are attached to thi s l etter .
..

""
As Mr. Trombly informed you in his letter \~ \ '
iou , the
Secret Service files contain Fed eral Burea d o Investigation
reports . Your Freedom of Information Ac t r q st has bee n
forwarded to the Federal Bureau of Inve stig ti n for their
respons e to you.

Any denial on appeal i s sub j ect to j udicial review in the

District Court i n t h e distr i ct where t he compl a i nant resides ,
has a principal place of b u siness , or in which the agency
records are situated , or in the District of Columbi a .

For the purpose of appeals of initial denial s under the

Freedom of Information Act , the undersigned is the official
makin g thi s determination for the Unit ed States Secret

Freedom of Info Appeal ref 1 FOI/PA serial 2648

Dep. Dir. usss ltr 15 Dec 77
1800 G ! t NW
WASH, D.C. 20223

l.Under provisions FOI/PA I wish to appeal determination signed by ATSAIC

Thrombly dated 15 Dec 77 re; IRVIN DANA BEAL SS files. As a leader of ~
the YOUTH INTERNATIONAL PARTY, Mr Beal has a right to a list of documents
in your files about him along with the reason why each one is denied,
deleted or released: A document i s included about USSS interest in his
arrest in DeKalb County, Georgia - i t is obviously a message fowarded
by the FBI about Dana's arrest because he was on some sort of wa~ch
list. But the question remains - Did the Secret Service have more than
just a routine interest in this arrest since we do not ·know what other
docmnents there are that deal with it, in your files.

2.The Youth International Party, who I also represent in FOI/PA matters

has long been the victum of illegal activity b y the USSS. When we called
for demonstrations at the Republican Convention in Kansas City: we were
put on USSS protective research indexes - just for exercising our con-
stitutional right of assembly. Of course we have to assemble near polit-
ical figures in order to exercise this right - they are the ones with
the power. But this does not make us a threat to their lives. The usss
is so interested in groups like the YIPPIES that they still have not
come-up with a suspect in the bombing on the Ellipase that was directed
at President carter.

3. Dana Beal, and the Yippies, would like a more comprehensi~e and less
deleted look in the Secret Service's interest in our lives . We would
like files on Beal that encompass wider YIP activity, since he is a
leader and founder of YIP along with PAUL KRASSNER, JERRY RUBIN, ABBIE
HOFFMAN, THOMAS FORCADE, ARON KAY, BEN MASEL etc. etc.

4. There is no need to delete the results of interviews with my client.

He knows what he told your Special A~ents and i t only cast aspirsions
on his honesty when you do this.

come to this convention. It is not known how successi'ul this
operation is.
