### NUMEC, Israel and the Director's knowledge
The Washington Star reported on March 2, 1978 that [[Carl E. Duckett]], whom the Star called the CIA's former chief of research and technology and the Post the CIA's third-ranking official at the time, told [[Nuclear Regulatory Commission]] officials in a closed February 1976 briefing that Helms had told President [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] in 1968 that the CIA had evidence [[Israel]] possessed atomic bombs, and that Johnson replied "Don't tell anyone else, even [[Dean Rusk]] and [[Robert McNamara]]." Helms, then operating a private consulting firm, said "I have no recollection of any such conversation," and when asked whether he would deny any of the events Duckett described said "I don't say they didn't happen." The Washington Post of the same date reported that, according to the classified record of the briefing, Duckett also said the CIA considered the question of whether highly enriched uranium had been diverted from the Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation plant at Apollo, Pennsylvania "academic" because Israel had developed its own weapons, and that "if any such scheme was under consideration, he would have known about it and he never heard so much as a rumor." Duckett is the sole source for the 1968 conversation; [[Walt Rostow]], Johnson's national security adviser in 1968, told the Times he could not remember the events.[^9] A Washington Star article of March 23, 1978 reported that the Atomic Energy Commission, "confused and embarrassed by the worst loss of nuclear materials in its history," had decided in 1966 to conceal the loss of 202 pounds of highly enriched uranium from the Apollo plant from the public, according to a document released by the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee.[^10]
