Priscilla Johnson McMillan : Biography

Priscilla Livingston Johnson was born in Glen Cove, New York, on 19th July, 1928. As a student she was a member of the United World Federalists, an organization run by Cord Meyer. After graduating with a master's degree from Radcliffe College in 1952 she applied to join the Central Intelligence Agency. .....

John Newman writes.:

....The Case of the Two Priscillas

"Screwball," said a CIA employee who had known Priscilla Johnson at Harvard. "Goofy," and "mixed up," said an April 1958 CIA message characterizing Johnson at the time she had applied for CIA employment in 1952.1 These unkind, condescending words were accompanied, however, by "excellent scholastic rating" and "thought [to be] liberal, international-minded, and antiCommunist."

Priscilla Johnson came from a wealthy Long Island family and had a master's degree from Radcliffe College. Perhaps the general political inquisitiveness of this intelligent girl rendered her insufficiently malleable for work with the CIA, but it was her associations with left wing organizations like the United World Federalists (UFW) which, in the end, became the red flag that made her unattractive to the CIA.

"Security disapproved," wrote Sheffield Edwards, CIA security officer in 1953, at the end of an investigative process that lasted more than six months.' By this time-April 13-the point was moot because Priscilla had withdrawn her application. In fact, in April 1953 she was working for Senator John Kennedy.

While membership in organizations like the UFW were an obstacle to Priscilla Johnson's application for CIA employment, the same was not true for someone else she met in the UFW. He was Cord Meyer, a man whom Johnson says eventually went on to become "the brains behind the CIA program to fund left wing publications."' The umbrella organization for these publications, according to Johnson, was the Congress for Cultural Freedom, and the CIA was the "covert" source for its funds. Its publications were "respected Cold War liberal" journals, she recalls, like Encounter and Survey, which I did some writing for."

CIA interest in Priscilla Johnson was reopened in 1956. On August 8, Chief, CI/Operational Approval and Support Division (CU OA) submitted a new request to a Mr. Rice in the deputy director for security's office.' This was a standard CIA form asking for approval of operational use of Johnson, and it was accompanied by a CIA standard form 1050, Personal Record Questionnaire. The questionnaire listed Priscilla's previous work in 1955 and 1956 as a translator for the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, and also her "freelance" writing for several publications, including the New York Times and the North American Newspaper Alliance.

On August 23-and in spite of the 1953 security disapproval-a CIA Security Office and FBI records check was completed without adverse comment.' This information was passed in a Security Office memo from Robert Cunningham back to the requesting counterintelligence element, CI/OA. The Cunningham memo partially illuminates the original CI/OA request. For example, it said, "Pursuant to your request, no other action is being taken at this time." In other words, the chief of CI/OA had specifically requested that no further action, which presumably included further investigation, about Johnson be carried out. It also said this about Johnson: "who is of potential interest [approximately four to five words redacted]." The redacted words were probably a name or element in the CIA's Soviet Russia Division, most likely SR/10, the branch that handled "legal travelers" to the Soviet Union.

We may surmise that SR/10 was behind the request for operational approval because of a CIA document five months later. On January 25, 1957, SR/10 sent a standard form to Chief CI/OA asking for cancellation of the approval for Johnson's operation use.' In Form 937's box "Reason for Cancellation" was this typed note: "SR/10 has no further operational interest in subject [Johnson]. Please cancel."

To understand the significance of this form, we must return to the 1956 Cunningham memo of August 23. There is something terribly wrong about the contents of this CIA document. It said that Security Office files showed Priscilla's middle initial was "L for Livingston and is not R."8 That the Security Office had uncovered this kind of error is perhaps understandable, but the next sentence was extraordinary: "She was apparently born 23 September 1922 in Stockholm, Sweden, rather than 19 July 1928 at Glen Cove, New York." The Cunningham memo made no attempt to explain this transformation. Instead, the memo rather matter-of-factly proceeded to explain the new history of Priscilla this way:

She was utilized by OSO in 1943 and 1944. Clearance was based on Civil Service Commission rating of eligibility which in turn was based on a favorable investigation and record checks. An FBI record check completed 21 August 1956 was returned NIS [Naval Investigative Service].

The 1928 birth date carried in Priscilla Johnson's CIA records for the preceding four years could not be reconciled with this new data unless a fifteen-year-old girl, not yet out of high school, had been working for the Office of Special Operations during World War Two.

The Cunningham memo is all the more incredible because it makes no attempt whatsoever to reconcile the incongruity between these two seemingly different Priscilla Johnsons, one an OSO veteran at the time the other was a child. Moreover, this time there was no mention of adverse information about Priscilla's left wing activities. There appears to be too many egregious errors by the Office of Security, and therefore this story does not sound believable. The bizarre story of the CIA's 1956 renewed scrutiny of Priscilla Johnson does not end with the Cunningham memo. If we back up one step for a closer look at the August 8 request for operational approval, we notice something weird about the CIA standard form 1050, Personal Record Questionnaire, which accompanied it. The questionnaire's contents purport to be about the Priscilla born in New York on July 19, 1928. Yet it is strange that Priscilla's memberships in professional and social organizations, her political affili ations, contacts, acquaintances, brothers, sisters, and relatives, were all listed as unknown. The form did manage to correctly name her parents, Stuart and Eunice Johnson. Priscilla's alleged signature, however, is now too faint to read, as are the date and the city and state where she supposedly signed it. Moreover, it was witnessed by someone who lived in Somerville, Massachusetts. Priscilla was in New York during August 1956. Perhaps the Office of Security has an excuse for why it failed in 1956 to furnish CI/OA with the same "derogatory" information on Priscilla that it furnished in 1953. That excuse might be that the second, Swedish-born, Priscilla Johnson — whether she was a real person or a cover story — had a good security record. Historians now have the unenviable task of trying to figure out whether the CIA was inventing a false Priscilla Johnson or whether it was incapable of telling the difference between two people born five years and three thousand miles apart .....

Thomas F. McCoy CIA officer, political consultant

5 December, 2009

Thomas F. McCoy, 91, a retired CIA officer who later had a long career as a political consultant, died Nov. 25 of heart disease at his home in Chevy Chase.

Mr. McCoy joined the CIA in 1951 and served as a political officer in Rome for six years in the 1950s. He had additional overseas assignments in Spain and Southeast Asia before he retired from the agency in 1968.

As a friend of Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy's (D-Minn.), Mr. McCoy joined his campaign for the 1968 Democratic presidential nomination and became national campaign co-chairman. He was primarily responsible for fundraising and campaign finance.

In 1969, Mr. McCoy opened Washington Information Associates, a political consulting firm with a specialty in fundraising. He worked on many national and statewide campaigns before his retirement in 1993. He was considered an expert on campaign finance and often testified before the Federal Election Commission.

Thomas Frederick McCoy was born in New Haven, Conn., and attended George Washington University. He served in the Army during World War II and was selected for the Office of Strategic Services, the wartime forerunner to the CIA. While serving in London, he met his future wife, another OSS employee.

After the war, he ran a frozen-foods business in Connecticut before moving to Washington to join the CIA. A daughter, Sarah McCarthy, died in 2005.

A son, David McCoy, was shot and killed in an unsolved slaying in Prince George's County in 2002.Survivors include his wife of 64 years, Priscilla Johnson McCoy of Chevy Chase; four children, ....

For 16 years, the CIA and State Department have been aware of what John Newman published in his book, related to the details and connections displayed above, and not one official word has been released on the Kabuki dance that was the alteration of Priscilla Johnson McMillan's CIA file. Recently, I sent an email to Priscilla pointing out that in the fullness of time, information in emerging obituaries will have an important impact on her long record of deception. I received no reply. Priscilla can be observed on the internet, a protestor against the corruption and secretive government of the city manager in Cambridge, MA. Priscilla's hypocrisy knows no bounds, and neither does the hypocrisy of the CIA and other involved government agencies and political deception and infiltration agents.

Priscilla Livingston Johnson's mother was Katherine Beeckman Steward, a daughter of Campbell Steward, and a niece of former Rhode Island governor Robert Livingston Beeckman, and of Mrs. Louis L. Lorillard. Katerine married U.S. diplomat F. Hallett Johnson in 1920 and daughter Priscilla was born in Stockholm in 1922.

I see little chance that this Priscilla's back ground details were merged with Priscilla R. Johnson's record at CIA as the result of an inadvertent clerical error, so what does this merge in the latter Johnson's CIA file actually indicate? The more we know, the better position we should be in to accurately determine what happened and why.

I intended to verify the lead I found at Ancestry.com that led me to believe that Priscilla Livingston Johnson, b. 1922 Stockholm, Sweden, was the daughter of a U.S. diplomat. Until now, I had not verified her D.O.B. more closely than the year, 1922. Now

I can post an exact match, 23 September, 1922.

Tom, I think you may be onto something here. I wish I could add something of substance, but I cant; so I hope you'll accept my encouragement to keep pursuing this avenue of research. Looking forward to more on the topic.

I have noticed Tom's work in this area, but don't personally know anymore than anyone else.

However, I do believe he is on to something. The first thing that jumped out at me as a memory

of an interesting area is that Michael Paine once worked for a Griswold Manufacturing Co., which,

I believe traces back to what appears in the URL immediately below.

http://www.cowtownco...old History.htm

The following account written by William M. Harned of, Pennsylvania, examines the long history of the manufacture and sale of Griswold Hardware products. Rather than rewrite or edit this fine account, we are publishing it as written by William Harned.

Matthew Griswold, born, Old Lyme, Connecticut, June 6, 1833, son of Matthew and Phoebe (Ely) Griswold. Matthew spent the first 30 years in Old Lyme, Connecticut, on the family farm. In 1865 when Matthew Griswold came to Erie, Pennsylvania, from Old Lyme, he joined with J. C. and Samuel Seldon; forming the Seldon-Griswold Manufacturing Company. Their specialties, at first, were separable door butts (hinges) and other items of light hardware. Then they also manufactured stovepipe dampers, thimbles, and other stove furniture. It wasn’t until the 1870's that they included skillets, pots, grinding mills, waffle irons; and added a tobacco cutter to their line in 1883. At this time Matthew, Jr., was added to the business. In 1884 Matthew Griswold bought out Seldon, forming The Griswold Manufacturing Company....

.....In 1951 Griswold Mfg. Co. had a float in Erie’s bicentennial parade. Two thousand small paperweight #30 pups were handed out to the crowd. In all about 3,000 of these pups were made. About 1,000 were made as giveaways to large distributors nationwide. In 1950 Griswold Mfg. Co. was turned over to two men from New York; and then in 1957 the company closed its doors. Of the many reasons as to why the Griswold Mfg. Co. closed down, this writer can only theorize; productions costs and competition with what is called pretty cookware, i.e. stainless, copperclad , and designed porcelain finishes. How ironic it is, cast iron is still unbeatable as cookware! To date we have 526 pieces catalogued, photographed and priced, as well as including the 92 years of history relating to the Griswold Mfg. Co. My wife Denise and myself have been researching for the past six years; and I have been collecting Griswold for thirteen years. Our forthcoming book, Griswold Cast Collectables should be available late in the spring.

If you telephone Yale University and ask to speak

with Mr. Griswold, the operator will ask you to be more

specific. Do you want the man who runs the university’s housing bureau

the man who runs the personnel department, the man who runs

the entire university, or some other Griswold?

A. Whitney Griswold is president of the 250 year-old school.

Arthur R. Griswold runs its housing and accident prevention bureaus

Dr. Matthew H. Griswold of Kensington is an official of the state health

department, but he comes down to Yale regularly to give public health

lectures.

Mrs. Lura E. S. Griswold is administrative assistant of Osborn

Zoological Laboratory. And whom do you think Yale has just appointed

as its personnel director? George H. Griswold

Dr. Matthew and President Griswold are distant cousins.

Otherwise the Griswold’s are unrelated.
