Went over to C.I.A. and spoke to all the employees. It was wonderful to see their high morale. I signed the bill which now prevents people like Agee & others from exposing & identifying our agents. Some have been killed because of this. Lunch with V.P. Bush. Then 2 receptions for the Ground Floor Committee with an hour in between in which I met with P.M. Thatcher.
