Nature, Purpose, and Scope of the NIS Program
Authority for the NIS Program
The National Tntelligence Survey (NIS) Pro-
gram was established pursuant to National Secu-
rity Council Intelligence Directive No. 3, 13 Janu-
ary 1948. This directive provides that
An outline of all basic intelligence required
by the Government shall be prepared by the Cen-
tral Intelligence Agency (CIA) in collaboration
with other appropriate agencies.
This outline shall be broken down into
chapters, sections, and subsections which shall be
allocated as production and maintenance respon-
sibilities to CIA and those other Government agen-
cies best qualified. by reason of their intelligence
requirements, production capabilities, and domi-
nant interest to assume these responsibilities.
This basic intelligence shall be compiled and
continuously maintained in National Intelligence
Survey to cover foreign countries, areas, or broad
special subjects, as appropriate.
The NIS shall be disseminated in such form
as may be determined by the Director of Central
Intelligence (DCI) and the agencies concerned.
T'he DCI shall be responsible for coordinat-
ing the production and maintenance and for ac-
complishing the editing, publication, and dissemi=
nation of the NIS and shall make such requests
on the agencies as are necessary for the proper
development and maintenance of the NIS.
Departments or agencies to be called on
for contributions to this undertaking may include
agencies other than those represented permanently
in the Intelligence Advisory Committee (IAC) .
Basic Concepts of the NIS Program
The NIS is a concise digest of basic intelli-
gence required by the Department of Defense for
strategic planning and high level operational plan-
ning, and by the Department of State for use in
formulating and executing U.S. foreign policy. It
also serves other Government agencies- which re-
quire it for the accomplishment of their missions.
In general, the intelligence contained in NIS is
concerned with the relatively permanent features
and fundamental characteristics of a country, area,
or broad special subject, and covers such fields as
the geographical, political, economic, military,
scientific, and sociological aspects of the country
or area or the fundamental aspects of the broad
special subject.
The NTS Program has two phases: 1) the initial
production of NIS on countries or areas in accord-
ance with JCS priorities and Intelligence Agency
capabilities and 2) the continuous maintenance
of such NIS.
The objective of the first phase is to pro-
duce integrated basic intelligence studies of all
pertinent aspects of the countries or areas within
the limits of available information and intelligence
on countries or areas.
The objective of the second phase is to keep
up to date the basic intelligence contained in
the published NIS, to fill gaps in this intelligence,
and to improve the presentation of material in NIS.
originally produced. It is the responsibility of
agencies having dominant interest to place each
NIS element actively on a maintenance basis as
soon as the element h.as been initially produced.
This phase of the program is to continue indefi-
nitely. Revisions will be published as required.
Both phases of the NIS Program require an
over-all collection effort covering all important
foreign countries and areas of the. world simul-
taneously.
If information is available to undertake an
NIS of lower priority than one on which ade-
quate material is not available, the -NIS of lower
priority will be produced and will not be held in
abeyance pending the availability of material far
the NIS of higher priority.
While the aim of the collection effort will
be to enable the production of complete and re-
liable published NIB, it must be recognized that
the production and maintenance program requires
information in greater detail than the intelligence
which appears in the published NIS.
New information will be continuously processed
so that the intelligence on hand will be constantly
up to date and ready for use.
The NIS Program must be flexible in order
to meet the basic intelligence requirements of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff. To this end it may be neces-
sary to produce and disseminate separate chapters
or sections of any NIB.

Standard Instructions for NIS
The Standard Instructions for National InteZZi-
gence Surveys contain outlines of basic intelligence
requirements, allocations of responsibility for pro-
duction, and instructions for the production of this
intelligence. These Standard Instructions were
prepared by a joint committee of representatives
of the Director of Central Intelligence and the
Chiefs of Intelligence Agencies of the Departments
of State, the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force;
were concurred in by the Intelligence Advisory
Committee; and were approved by the National
Security Council.
The outlines and outline guides are so drafted
as to cover all the basic intelligence aspects of the
most complex foreign country or area. However,
the appropriate treatment of any topic included in
the outlines and outline guides is determined by
the sense in which and the extent to which that
topic applies to the particular country or area
under consideration. Thus, the outlines and out-
line guides should be adapted to the country or
area on which the NIS is being produced.
The Standard Instructions prescribe the basic
procedures to be followed in producing and main-
taining all NIS. They cannot, however, cover all
contingencies. Hence, when cogent reasons exist,
the instructions may be modified or supplemented
to permit appropriate treatment of any topic.
Content of an NIS
An NIS is divided into chapters, each of
which. treats a major functional aspect of the coun-
try or area under consideration. These chapters
are divided into sections, each of which treats a
major subdivision of the field covered by the chap-
ter. The section is so designed as to permit it to
serve as the basic unit of production and mainte-
nance and so enhance the flexibility of the NIS
Program. The NIS chapters are as follows:
Chapter
I
Brief
Chapter
II
Military Geography
Chapter
III
Transportation and Telecommunica-
tions
Chapter
IV
Sociological
Chapter
V
Political
Chapter
VI
Economic
Chapter
VII
Scientific
Chapter
VIII
Armed Forces
Chapter
IX
Map and Chart Appraisal
Certain topics involving numerous details
are given general treatment in appropriate sections
of NIS chapters and full treatment in supplements.
Supplements are prepared only if the topic in ques-
tion is sufficiently important in an NIS Area to
warrant this detailed treatment. There are, at
present, the following five supplements
NIS Supplement No. I Ports and Naval Facilities
NIS Supplement No. II Air Facilities
NIS Supplement No. III Telecommunications
NIS Supplement No. IV Urban Areas
NIS Supplement No. V Petroleum
The Special NIS on Marine .Climate and
Oceanography divides the world sea areas into
ocean basins. These ocean basins are further sub-
divided into Parts, each of which is comparable to
a chapter in the other NIS. The production unit
is a Part, each of which will consist of three sec-
tions. Ocean basins are designated as follows
NIS 104
Atlantic Basin
12 Parts
NIS 105
Pacific Basin
12 Parts
NIS 106
Indian Basin
4 Parts
NIS 107
Arctic Basin
1 Part
NIS 108
Antarctic Basin
1 Part
A gazetteer will be published for each NIS
Area.
The geographic areas covered by the NIS
are generally defined by political boundaries. In
CHAPTERS II (Military Geography) , however, areas
are determined in terms of natural geographic
units.
In some instances, it is desirable to define
the geographic area in terms of natural boundaries.
For example, since the Iberian Peninsula, includ-
ing the approaches into the Pyrenees from France,
forms a natural geographic concept, it should be
considered geographically as a whole. Thus, the
geographic treatment of this area would serve as
CHAPTER II for both NIS Portugal and NIS Spain.
Conversely, the area included within politi-
cal boundaries may be so extensive as to embrace
several natural geographic units. Examples of
such areas are the U.S.S.R. and China. CHAPTERS
II for these areas would consist of several Parts,
each treating a natural geographic unit.
In addition, it will be necessary to transcend
political boundaries in many instances in order
to obtain comprehensive treatment of certain
functional aspects, such as transportation and
ports and naval facilities; and such procedure
should be followed wherever necessary.
The scope of each chapter, supplement, and
Special NIS is outlined in detail under the Outline
Guides in this volume. Chapter and section out-
line guides in general include initial comments
relative to content of the unit as a whole which. are
not repeated with but are pertinent to the detailed
outlines for individual sections and subsections.
The following standard definitions apply explicitly
to CHAPTERS II-IX and by implication to CHAP-
TER I:
a) The first section of each chapter is uni-
formly entitled Introduction. This section is not
a summary of the basic intelligence contained in
the remainder of the chapter or an explanation of
the organization of the chapter. Rather, it pre-
sents an analysis of the basic intelligence contained
in the chapter. It also presents general aspects
which cannot be treated adequately elsewhere in

the chapter. For example, the organization and
functions of the high command are covered in SEC-
TION 8~ (Introduction t0 CHAPTER VIII, Armed
Forces) because this topic cannot be adequately
treated in the subsequent sections of CHAPTER VIII.
The chapter outline guides indicate the nature and
scope of the treatment to be accorded the Intro-
duction of each chapter.
b) The first subsection of each section is
uniformly entitled General. This subsection is
provided to permit a proper approach to the treat-
ment of material contained in the remainder of
the section.
c) The last subsection of most sections is
uniformly entitled Comments on Principal
Sources. This subsection is to serve the following
purposes:
To provide an evaluation of the principal source mate-
rial used in preparing the section and thereby in-
form the user of the general credibility to be ac-
corded the intelligence contained in the section.
To indicate those aspects of the subject about which
information is deficient or unavailable and thereby
provide collectors of information with collection
targets. In this connection, the principal sources
(not necessarily all sources) actually used should
be indicated.
Summary of agency functions
1. GENERAL
Where one agency is responsible far a sec-
tion of a chapter or a subsection of a section which
is being coordinated by another agency, working
level liaison shall be maintained. All cammunica-
tions of a policy or requirements nature to the
agency preparing the section or subsection will be
passed through intelligence command channels.
In all instances working level coordination
among agencies concerned will include the follow-
ing
Exchange, where applicable, of drafts of completed
draft sections in order to resolve inconsistencies
among sections and detect gaps in over-all cover-
age.
Informal coordination in compiling specific subsec-
tions which are assigned as the responsibility of
one agency but impinge upon the field of interest
of another.
2. NIS COMMITTEE
The NIS Committee consists of represent-
atives of the Director of Central Intelligence and
the Chiefs of the Intelligence Agencies of the De-
partments of State, the Army, the Navy, and the

A. Transmittal of material
1. LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
NIS material delivered to the Basic Intelligence
Division (D/B) , CIA requires a letter of transmit-
tal (original and 2 copies) . The letter itemizes
the number of pages of text and table manuscript,
table of contents and other typed material sub-
mitted, and indicates any omission of material or
other deviation from standard procedure. The let-
ter specifies control aspects of material involved.
The letter of transmittal also indicates the number
of extra- copies of insert maps which the contrib-
utor desires run without NIS reference lines (the
number not to exceed 10 copies of each map except
by special arrangement) , the minimum classifica-
tion for each map if run without the NIS refer-
ences, and any special restrictions concerning ad-
ditional runs and distribution by CIA for other
than NIS purposes.
2. MANUSCRIPT
NIS manuscript is submitted in 5 complete as-
sembled copies. Each of tYie 5 assembled sets of
manuscript includes in sequence 1) title page, 2)
table of contents, 3) text, 4) tables, 5) caption list,
and 6) list of any border information.
Pagination begins with the first page of text of
each Section and is consecutive throughout the
manuscript (including each page of the tables,
which follow the text in sequence of figure num-
bers) . Pagination is by other means than a num-
bering machine, which is reserved for use in D/B
processing.
Manuscript with more than nominal alterations
is not acceptable. Text or tabular material Photo-
statted or similarly reproduced from printed or
other material must be in positive print form and
legible in approximately typewriter elite size.
The supporting items, typed triple space, are as
follows
TITLE PAGE, containing Chapter or Supplement
number and title, Section number and title, and
the statement : "This is a preliminary draft of
Section ,NIS It has not been finally
edited or reconciled with other NIS sections and
should not be reproduced. This Section has been
approved for use in the NIS by the (agency),
(month, year) . This is the uniform date for the
entire section and will appear on each page of the
published section."
TABLE of CONTENTS for each section, including all
headings and subheads used in text according to
the style given in "Text specifications." For Sup-
plements, or when entire chapters are submitted,
a separate table of contents extending through No.
2 heads of all sections also is included. Each sec-
tion table of contents is immediately followed by
a LIST of FIGURES which lists in sequence all figures
with the following details for each : Figure number
as determined by sequence in tentative placement,
category identification (Table, Photo, Aerial, Chart,
Diagram, Plan, Map) , and the caption as it ap-
pears with the figure or in appropriate short-title
form. This LIST of FIGURES is immediately fol-
lowed by a contributor statement, as approved by
the NIS Committee, showing the agency or agen-
cies contributing to and responsible for prepara-
tion of the material.
CAPTION LIST (required for typesetting of all cap-
tions) . Figure numbers far all tables and graphics
are listed in sequence with exact wording of the
caption as attached to the figure. When appli-
cable, the list of captions is followed by a border
information Zist, listing in sequence each insert
map figure number with exact wording of the
border information as specified in "Graphic specifi-
cations," and indicating which maps have apron
material.
3. GRAPHIC MATERIAL
Graphic material, including photographs, is as-
sembled separately from manuscript, in 4 complete
sets with each item in sequence. The 4 copies of
each item consist of an original and 3 copies of all
black and white material, and 4 color proofs for
multicolor graphic material. The original plates
of multicolor maps are retained by contributor
until receipt of memorandum from D/B. These
originals are then forwarded as directed by D/B for
final reproduction.

B. Text specifications
1. TYPING OF TEXT
Text is submitted in 5 copies, typed on one side
only, with the original on substantial 8 x 121/z
bond paper. Duplicating process may be used if
submitted copies are thoroughly legible. Text is
typed triple space. All paragraphs without head-
ings begin with 5-space indent. Normal capital-
ization is used throughout (including headings),
without use of continuous capitalization or of un-
derlining except for foreign or other terms to be
italicized. The last word of a typed line is always
a complete word, avoiding ending any line with
a hyphen. Manuscript conforms to the sample
pages, with margins as shown. Each. manuscript
page, as shown, includes in top margin the name of
the agency of primary responsibility, date (manu-
script completion date, for processing control pur-
poses only), classification,. NIS number and sec-
tion number. The first page of text includes the
section number and title. Text pages are num-
bered consecutively within each section (not using
a numbering machine, which is reserved for D/B
processing).
2. TEXT HEADINGS
Headings used in NIS text material are as fol-
lows
(Grade of head,
not typed in ms.)
II. Military Geography (Chapter title)
22. Coasts and Landing Beaches (Section title)
A. General (No. 1)

(1) Williams Bay -Text follows .....
..
(No. 4 )
(a) Vicinity of Port Smith -Text ..
..
(No. 5)
1) Seaward Approaches-Text .....
(No. 6)
Chapter and section titles are centered. No. 1
heads are typed flush with left margin of text; in-
ferior heads are successively indented 5 typewriter
spaces. No. 1 and No. 2 heads stand alone; text
begins on next line with indentation of 5 spaces and
thereafter flush left. Remaining heads each end
with space, two hyphens, space; text follows im-
mediately on same line, with succeeding lines be-
ginning flush with left text margin.
Each standard heading includes a title in ad-
dition to letter or number. Titles are as brief as
feasible. In No. 1 through No. 5 heads, common
nouns are not capitalized. No. 6 heads are initial
caps except for prepositions, articles, etc.
Headings may stand alone when immediately
followed by the next grade of head. For certain
material (as in Coasts and Landing Beaches), a
heading may be followed on the next line or lines
by coordinates, hydrographic chart references, etc.
No. 5 and No. 6 headings may be modified when
used to introduce a series of similar subsidiary
topics (such as a series of brief descriptive para-
graphs on smaller ports) .
Numbers used to itemize a series of items within
text carry a single parenthesis, e.g., 1) .
3. REFERENCES TO FIGURES AND TEXT
Figures (including -bath tables and graphic ma-
terial) must be adequately referred to in the re-
lated text, using figure numbers assigned by the
contributor. Reference may be integral in a sen-
tence, ". as shown in FIGURE 32-16 ", or
parenthetical, ". . (FIGURES 42-3 through 42-
6). .". It is often desirable to use the reference
flexibly to differentiate types of figures, e.g.,
". . .tabulated in FIGURE 42-7 ." or ". .
shown on the map, FIGURE 42-8 . .". Statements
such as ". in the following table ." or
". in the table above .. ." are undesirable be-
cause the relationship may not be retained in
printing. Because figure numbering is subject to
change in publication or maintenance, reference to
tables or graphic material in other sections or
chapters is by abbreviated caption, type of material
and section number in which it appears, e.g., "(see
population density map, SECTION 41) ".
Tentative placement within text of tables and
appropriate graphic items (e.g., line cuts) is in-
dicated by large carets-with figure numbers on the
right margin of text pages (see sample pages) .
Each figure is caretted only once. Figures expect-
ed to follow printed text, such as half-tone illus-
trations and fold-in maps, are itemized after the
last line of manuscript text.
Because subsection numbering and titles are sub-
ject to change in publication or maintenance, cross
references are made to the highest order of text
topic which will adequately indicate where the ref-
erenced material will be found. Within sections
and especially within lengthy sections, however,
references to subsections may be quite detailed if
desirable. Another section of the same chapter
is referred t0 by ". (SECTION 81, this chapter)
. . ." or ". (See section on Ground Forces)
. ." Reference to a section of another chapter is
aS fO110WS: ". (CHAPTER III, SECTION 31) ."
or ". (See Railway) . ."
The words Chapter, Section, and. Figure, when
followed by identifying number are typed in capi-
tals and lower case.
4. QUOTATIONS AND EXTRACT MATTER
Quotations up to approximately 3 typewritten
lines are included in text within quotation marks.
Longer quotations, and subordinate material like-
wise to be printed as "extract" in smaller type, are
without quotation marks, indented 5 spaces for all
lines and typed double space.

5. SAMPLE PAGES
The accompanying two pages are sample pages
of text manuscript for the guidance of typists.
6. FOOTNOTES
Footnotes to text matter are kept to a minimum.
When footnotes are considered necessary, up to
3 asterisks per page may be used. In manuscript
the footnote is inserted on the line following the
reference, separated from the text by solid lines
above and below; the- footnote- begins indented 5
spaces from left margin, and is typed double space
(see sample pages) .
7. REFERENCE TO SOURCES
References to sources are confined as much as
possible to the topic Comments on Principal
Sources, where .the evaluative discussion normally
will be followed by an alphabetical listing of prin-
cipal sources to which consecutive numbers are
assigned. If sources are grouped by subject cate-
gories, they are numbered consecutively rather
than by .successive groups. In text, and in both
text and figure footnotes, this facilitates brief ref-
erence, e.g., ".. ,based on Source 1 estimates,
. ." or ". (Source 1) . . ." When only a few
principal sources are identified and are not as-
signed source numbers in the Comments subsec-
tion, text or footnote reference thereto is as brief
as feasible. A source cited in text but not included
in Comments on Principal Sources may be de-
scribed in necessary detail but as briefly as possi-
ble. Author, title of source, and date normally is
sufficient, typed in capitals and lower case set off
from text by parentheses.
In the numbered listing of principal sources,
each item is typed double space and is continuous
in the following order and typewriter style
Author, authors, editor or agency; last name
first, capital and lower case, period. Title of book
or other separate publication; capitals and lower
case, underlined,. followed within parentheses by
capitals and lower case translation if required,
period. Title of article from periodical in quotes,
capitals and lower case, comma; followed by name
of periodical, underlined, comma; edition, series,
part, volume, number, selected pages, year of peri-
odical as necessary, separated by commas in that
order, with capital only at beginning of series of
items, abbreviated as ed., ser., pt., vol., no., p.,
period. Arabic numerals used throughout except
Roman after pt. Place of publication in capitals
and lower case, followed by colon and publishing
agency if ~ given, otherwise period. Date, period;
n.d. if not dated, period. Total pages if desired.
Classification in parentheses, capital and lower
case, without period.
When several works by the .same author or
agency are listed, the author's name is not repeated
but is replaced by dashes in subsequent listings.
C. Tabular specifications
1. TABULATIONS
Relatively simple tabular presentations, gener-
ally with no stubs, less than 3 columns of data, and
not requiring more than a printed column width,
are treated as tabulations. Tabulations are incor-
porated in text manuscript without figure number
or title (see sample pages) . They are typed double
space, with no continuous capitalization or under-
lining.
2. TABLES
More complex tabular presentations, generally
with stub and 3 or more vertical columns of data,
are treated as tables. Each table has a descrip-
tive title (caption) preceded by a figure number.
Each table is constructed to stand as an entity,
because of possible separation from text in publica-
tion or use.
3. TYPING OF TABLES
Each table is typed in 5 copies, on one side only,
original on substantial bond paper. Duplicating
process may be used if submitted copies are thor-
oughly checked for legibility. Tables are typed
double space, with no continuous capitals or under-
lining in caption, stubs, column headings, ar data
entries. Tables are typed on 8 x 121/z bond paper
whenever practicable. For more extensive presen-
tations, larger paper may be used, if possible re-
taining the 121/2 inch vertical dimension. Several
separate 8 x 121/2 pages may be used to continue
a table. When more than one page is used to
present a table or when there is significant relation-
ship between columns in separate tables, in typing
it is important to maintain alignment and space
relationship of columns on all pages. Each page
includes in the margin, as iri text pages, the name
of the agency of primary responsibility, date, clas-
sification, NIS number and section number.
4. TABLE TITLES AND FIGURE NUMBERS
Table titles (captions) are as brief as possible
consistent with adequate indication of table con-
tent. Date or dates are included in the title un-
less table content is generalized or in itself provides
adequate date information. The area or political
name is incorporated when feasible, in adjective
form ("Value of French imports, 1945-1950") or
in noun form after substance of caption ("Land
use, France, 1950") .
The .figure number which precedes each table
title is comprised of the section number followed
by a hyphen and the serial number of the table in

CONFIDENTIAL EDITORIAL INSTRUCTIONS
the sequence of all figures (including all tables 7. CONVENTIONAL ENTRIES
and graphic items) within a section, according to
caretted location in the submitted manuscript.
5. TABLE STUBS AND COLUMN HEADINGS
Stubs (horizontal descriptive entries normally
to the left of vertical columns of data) and column
headings are carefully worded and coordinated.
Proper selection and description of categories min-
imizes footnotes and exceptions which require ex-
planation.
In general, the heading at the top of a column
covers all material presented in the column with-
out insertion of additional headings farther down
the column. The same applies to side heads and
lines of data. Where intermediate headings seem
necessary, the material generally is presented as
separate tables. However, related categories of
items (such as apply to various weapons) may be
usefully combined in a single table by making col-
umn headings more comprehensive and using sub-
headings in columns and/or indicating a general
change in category. Preliminary consultation
with D/B on such matters is advisable.
6. TABLE FOOTNOTES AND SOURCE REFER-
ENCES
Footnotes to tables are indicated by up to 3
asterisks and thereafter by up to 3 daggers (the
typewriter symbol ~$ is used for a dagger) . These
symbols are placed at the left of numerical column
data, and at the right of headings, stubs, mixed or
reading column data. Footnotes generally are
typed double space, under the table, starting in-
dented five spaces from left margin of table. The
number of footnotes to tables is minimized by in-
corporation of the material into related text when
feasible, by careful phrasing of stubs and headings,
by consolidation in a reduced number of footnotes,
or by consolidation in a single NOTE carried as a
footnote without symbol.
When source reference or references are con-
sidered necessary and apply for a table as a whole,
they are indicated by "Data from Source 13 ."
beginning at the left text margin and typed two
spaces below a line at the bottom of the table
proper. If a NOTE item. is used it precedes the
conventional abbreviation n a and explanation, if
used (see conventional entries below), which in
turn precedes any symbol footnotes. An entire
table taken verbatim from a source (sometimes as
the only available data, and not necessarily fully
accepted by the contributor) , is so indicated in re-
lated text, by explanation within. the table, or by
footnote; in such. cases it is generally desirable, so
far as feasible, to follow the detailed format of the
original material.
To avoid blank spaces in columns of data, the
following conventional entries are made as ap-
propriate in table columns
.. not applicable; no footnote used
n a data not available, inadequate data, etc;
n and a separated and underlined; until
conventional is well established, explained
as "Data not available", etc., in footnote
0 indicates zero quantity or reading in col-
umns of uniform data such as weather
statistics; no footnote used
none used instead of 0 when data are not uni-
form, e.g., to indicate known lack of pro-
duction of a significant commodity;
underline; no footnote used
~nstg quantity too insignificant to retard;
underline; no footnote used
When exceptional items in a column are esti-
mated they are preceded by est in underlined lower
case, unless symbol and footnote are preferable be-
cause of an otherwise appreciably narrower column
or exceptional items can be feasibly covered in
other footnotes.
Ditto marks are not used in tables. Far this pur-
pose da in underlined lower case is used. Gener-
ally, identical entries in figure columns are re-
peated. It is likewise desirable to repeat word en-
tries which have significance.
8. STATISTICAL TOTALS
When n a or insiq are included with. vertical or
horizontal data entries for which a total is given
that only moderately exceeds the sum of the specific
entries, no footnote explanation may be required.
However, when the total is exactly the sum of the
specific figures, generally it is advisable to indicate
that n a or similar items are not reflected in the
total, e.g., "* Totals are of known data" or
"approx." When totals are not identical with the
sum of specific entries, because of rounding or dif-
ferent sources, indicate by note, e.g., " (Tonnage)
figures rounded to nearest (thousand) are not ad-
ditive".
9. TABLE CONSTRUCTION
Optimum clarity and usefulness require the care-
ful construction of all tables in terms of the nature
and purpose of the material and the characteris-
tics of the NIS format.
Column headings normally are typed and printed
horizontally. They may be vertical when heading
narrow columns of data or generally to facilitate
publishing a table in minimum width. Superior
or consolidating headings are centered over the
appropriate individual column headings.

JUNE 1951 EDITORIAL INSTRUCTIONS CONFIDENTIAL
To avoid repetition of units of measurement after
items of latitude, longitude, time, distance, weight,
etc., units of measurement (abbreviated as appro-
priate) are put at the head of column, or centered
over appropriate columns. Units common to an
entire table (e.g., thousands of metric tons, or per-
centage of population) are placed in parentheses
beneath the table title.
It is desirable, so far as practicable, for a series
of tables dealing with common or closely related
topics to be expressed in a uniform order of magni-
tude of units of measurement, e.g., all in thousands
of tons or hundreds of tons.
Entries in all columns align horizontally with.
top line of the corresponding stub.
Vertical columns of figures are aligned on the
decimal paint, dissimilar figures are centered in
the column, and zeros precede the decimal in num-
bers of less than. 1. Examples of various figure
items are
1500
0.15
15.5 -17.0
insig
30 .(daily)
Generally it is not desirable to carry a column
in which there are no entries. Use of a column
for isolated entries may be avoided by carrying the
entries in a "Remarks" column or by consolidation
in an explanatory note to the table.
Tables generally should be constructed to avoid
extensive use of full-length lines or rules between
columns and particularly between horizontal en-
tries. Lines or boxes around column headings pref-
erably are omitted by contributors unless format
is well established.
Although contributors are not required to con-
form to printing requirements when constructing
tables, general consideration of such requirements
facilitates publication of table material. A printed
NIS single-column width accommodates approxi-
mately 55 units of characters or spaces. A two-
column page width takes approximately 115 units.
A two-page spread takes approximately 230 char-
acters or spaces. Two-page spreads tend to present
page make-up problems in publication, including
separation of tables from related text. Tables
which must be viewed from the side of the page,
and extended tables on fold-in inserts, generally
are not desirable and are used only by arrangement
with D/B. In constructing tables for normal col-
umn or page-width publication, space allowance
must be made for column headings which may be
wider than figure entries in columns, and far stubs.
When it is apparent that the maximum horizontal
lines (allowing fo.r column entries, column head-
ings, stubs, footnote symbols, and adequate space
between columns) will occupy more than the ap-
proximate number of spaces available but will not
utilize more than a nominal additional width, re-
arrangement of the table warrants consideration.
Vertical printing of heads is one device. When the
number of columns exceeds the number of stub
entries, the lay-out often may be reversed to make
a longer but narrower table. When tables present
problems not previously encountered, contributors
are requested to consult D/B before final typing.
D. Graphic specifications
1. GENERAL
All graphic materials, such as photographs,
maps, charts, graphs, and sketches, regardless of
size, are (in addition to numbered tables) desig-
nated as figures. Each figure carries a separate
figure number comprised of the section number
followed by hyphen and serial number of the figure
in the sequence of all figures within the section.
The page size of the printed NIS, including
binding and other margins, is 91/4" by 121/$". The
type is set in two 31/z" columns spaced 1/4" apart.
Figures of column width are printed 31/z" wide,
and 2-column figures are 71/4" wide. The maxi-
mum height of such figures including space for
caption is 93/4".
All graphic items larger than page size are
treated as fold-in inserts. The maximum paper
size used for NIS inserts is 231/4" V x 393/4" H. The
horizontal dimension normally includes a 91/4"
apron.
Figures are prepared to fit NIS indicated dimen-
sions. Care is required in laying out correct pro-
portions and in selecting sizes of symbols, patterns,
lines, and lettering to allow for reduction com-
mensurate with that permitted by other features
of the figure. When a specific amount of reduc-
tion is desired, it is so marked outside the border.
Otherwise, the amount of reduction will be decided
by D/B.
All charts, graphs, maps and other graphic ma-
terial to be printed with text are constructed as
black and white linecut figures of page size or less.
Photographs and other figures requiring halftone
reproduction normally will be published on coated
paper inserts of page size (excepting large -pano-
ramas or mosaics which may be run as fold-in in-
serts) , grouped immediately following text and
table manuscript of each section. Multicolor
graphics normally will be inserted at the end of
each section.
All figures, except insert maps, are accompanied
by captions (in lower case and normal word capital-
ization) which are. carefully worded to be briefly
but adequately descriptive. The first line of the
caption carries the figure number followed by iden-
tification of the subject or brief descriptive phrase;

 Approved For Release 1999/09/02 :CIA-RDP61 S00750A000600100001-2
CONFIDENTIAL EDITORIAL INSTRUCTIONS JUNE 1951
succeeding lines add appropriate amplification, in-
cluding direction of view and indication of the date
(or absence thereof, by "Date unknown") of photo-
graphs. Captions are firmly attached to figures,
affixed to permit reading of the caption while view-
ing the figure but not obscuring the figure image.
Captions must be legible but need not be drafted
since all captions are set in type.
Charts or graphs do not carry titles or caption
material (as distinct from explanatory legend ma-
terial) within the figure image. In the case of a
specially constructed chart or graph, source and
date of information may be drafted within the
figure.
All insert maps carry the title, legend, source
and date of source, and other essential caption in-
formation drafted within the title box or neatline.
Border information, indicated outside the map bor-
der in non-photographic blue but not drafted be-
cause it will be set in type, is as follows: Upper left
corner-agency responsible for map content, and
date to be carried by the section as a unit; center
top-NIS Area number; upper right. corner-classi-
fication; lower left corner-file number and agency
responsible for actual map construction. (unless
the latter is identical with material in upper left
corner) ; center bottom-abbreviated map title;
lower right corner-figure number.
It is not necessary that all maps or photographs
be oriented with north at the top, but the position
of north is clearly indicated by means of a north
arrow, coordinates, ar caption. Names, symbols,
and similar details of figures are oriented for read-
ing from the bottom of the page. In exceptions
where figures must be viewed from the side of the
page, details of the figure are oriented for reading
from the right-hand side of the page.
Printed "stick-up" is preferred for symbols and
lettering. However, Leroy lettering is permissible.
Freehand lettering and symbols are to be avoided
except in such instances as the inclusion of an ex-
istent, printed map or sketch.
It is frequently desirable for graphic material,
such as large-scale aerials of airfields, to be ac-
companied by small-scale line-cut orientation or
location maps.
2. PHOTOGRAPHS
Only clear and distinct photographs are accept-
able, and original prints are supplied insofar as
possible. Except where the original is unwieldy,
prints are supplied at the same scale as originals,
including suggested cropping to be undertaken in
D/B processing.
High-altitude aerial photographs carry a north
arrow and bar scale drafted on the face of the print.
When a photograph originally has foreign annota-
tions an the face of the photograph, the annota-
tions are retained and accompanied by translation
or explanation. Where feasible, the translation is
added to the face of the print in the form of a key
or legend; where space is not available or a key or
legend is not adequately descriptive, the transla-
tion or explanation appears in the caption or on
a separate typed sheet attached to each copy of
the print.
Instructions for selection and preparation of
photographs are set forth in NIS supplementary in-
structions.
3. MAPS
All NIS maps are carefully selected and con-
structed in terms of the purpose and subject ma-
terial of a map or plan, content and positional in-
tegration with text, suitability of color or other
differentiation, and all feasible uniformity in lay-
out, lettering, and other drafted elements.
All maps have a neatline and border, a legend
centered under the map title, a bar scale centered
beneath the legend, and the classification centered
beneath the scale. Legends clearly define all sym-
bols not self-explanatory or generally understood
from common usage. A direction indication, either
coordinates or a north arrow, is included. Maps
prepared as a series (e.g., part and town plans)
have consistent treatment throughout in type style,
zipatone patterns, title and legend layout. Non-
varying plastic (e.g., dyrite, vinylite) is preferable
for the construction of color plates, to facilitate
accurate registry in printing.
A map designed as a black and white line draw-
ing, page size or less, is preferable for many NIS
purposes because it can be printed adjacent to the
related text. When information cannot be ade-
quately presented in black and white, limited use of
one additional color for such maps is passible, upon
consultation with D/B.
A Standard Base Map for each NIS Area is pre-
pared and distributed by Geographic Division,
(D/G) , CIA in the following forms : Black and
white and composite color copies on paper; compos-
ite black line and black line copies of each color
separation plate on plastic (dyrite). Specific in-
structions concerning reduction, sizes, etc., are dis-
tributed with the base map for each NIS Area.
Contributors are responsible for drafting their
own overlays, which are keyed to the base plates of
NIS Standard Base Maps.
In addition to the Standard Base Map asmall-
scale Page Size Base Map is prepared for each NIS
Area. This map is available to contributors in
black-line and non-photographic blue, paper copies.
Black-line maps or color overlays are prepared by
drafting directly on these bases.

For purposes where base maps are not applicable
(such as port plans), contributors are responsible
for compiling and constructing their own maps.
Contributors lacking necessary cartographic facili-
ties should consult D/B.
Fold-in maps are printed with apage-size apron,
to permit full view of the map as the text is read.
This apron can be used for printing information
additional to that contained in the legend, such
as lists of installations or regions. Such informa-
tion is submitted on a separate typewritten sheet,
a copy of which is attached to each copy of the
map. Printed material is not carried on the back
of a map.
E. General
1. NIS SUPPLEMENT SPECIFICATIONS
Preparation of text and graphic material for
NIS Supplements generally conforms to the indi-
cated procedures for other NIS material, with such
modifications as are developed to meet the require-
ments of the Supplements.
2. CLASSIFICATION AND CONTROL
NIS textual material is classified independently
by section. All pages of each section uniformly
carry the highest classification of material in the
section. All material, however, carries at least
a RESTRICTED classification. Tables of contents,
caption lists, all tables, and all graphics intended
to be printed within text, carry the uniform section
classification and are so stamped when submitted.
Insert maps or other insert graphic items (includ-
ing photographs) are not governed by the over-all
classification, but are individually classified as ap-
propriate.
The agency of primary responsibility is required
to indicate any control aspects of submitted ma-
terial.
All Comments on Principal Sources for all NIS
are controlled for "U.S. Officials Only". Each page
of that portion of manuscript is so stamped, top
and bottom. The control for Comments on Prin-
cipal Sources as such does not govern for related
NIS material and need not be specified in the letter
of transmittal.
Certain NIS Areas, as approved and specifically
listed by the NIS Committee. are controlled for
Certain other
IS Areas, as approved and specifically listed by
the NIS Committee, are restricted by control for
"U.S. Officials Only". All NIS material relating
to such Areas, regardless of the content of the ma-
terial, is correspondingly controlled. Each page of
manuscript and each unit of graphic material is
appropriately stamped, top and bottom. All such
material .delivered to D/B carries a cover sheet
specifying control, and the control requirements
also are indicated in the letter of transmittal.
When any element or portions of NIS material
(other than Comments on Principal Sources) are
controlled for reasons other than the approved con-
trol character of the Area, the entire section in-
volved is controlled. Each page of manuscript and
each unit of graphic material is appropriately
stamped, top and bottom. All such material de-
livered to D,/B carries a cover sheet specifying con-
trol, and the nature of and occasion for the con-
trol requirements are indicated in the letter of
transmittal.
3. TREATMENT OF NAMES
Geographic names used in the NIS are those
approved by the United States Board on Geo-
graphic Names- (BGN) . Preliminary gazetteers
are issued to contributors for use in the preparation
of text and graphic materials. Pending publica-
tion of a pertinent gazetteer, or in the case of
names not covered by a published gazetteer, lists
of names are submitted according to NIS supple-
mentary instructions.
English conventional names are used insofar as
they are approved by BGN. The approved native
name is added in parentheses the first time the
conventional name is used in a section, and there-
after as desirable for clarity. It is desirable to use
the native name in parentheses after the conven-
tional name on maps whenever practicable.
Approved native names are used where conven-
tional English names are not provided. Transla-
tion of generic parts of native names (except when
the meaning is apparent) is given, in parentheses
or in running text if feasible, the first time a ge-
neric appears in any segment of text. As a reader
aid, English generics may be interspersed in text.
All terms referring to man-made features, such
as Small Boat Harbor, are in English. Military
regions or other regions arbitrarily designated for
convenience in presentation are in English and
are not required to be identical with BGN approved
versions.
Consistency in the use of the conventional or
the native name for the same feature is maintained
throughout each chapter.
In lists of towns and cities, coordinates are given
for each of two or more places having identical
names.
4. TECHNICAL TERMINOLOGY
When scientific names are appropriately used in
the interest of accuracy, if possible they are pre-
ceded by a common name or common name ge-
neric; e.g., the colon bacillus (Escherichia coli),
malaria mosquitoes (Anopheles maculipennis, A.
Approved For Release 1999/09/02 :CIA-RDP61 S00750A000600100001-2

CONFIDENTIAL EDITORIAL INSTRUCTIONS JUNE 1951
hyracanus) . The scientific names are enclosed in
parentheses and marked for italics in every case.
In a paragraph discussing malaria mosquitoes,
however, italicized scientific names may be used
without a preceding common name or generic.
Scientific family names (names ending in -idae, as
Stomatidae) are capitalized but not italicized.
Special-use terms, such as names of military
regions, are capitalized (e.g., the Kazakh Hill
Country) to clearly maintain identity.
5. STATISTICAL DATA
Statistical data normally are expressed either
in U.S. units of measure or in the metric system,
and are consistent within a section or the largest
NIS unit feasible, except to conform with common
usage, as in discussing 75 mm and 3" guns. All
contributions, should clearly indicate what system
is used, in tables as well as text. When different
measurement systems unavoidably appear. together
in text (e.g., statute and nautical miles) they must
be clearly differentiated. In the case of areas
where available maps or charts use varying meas-
urement systems, the text is expressed in U.S.
units with metric conversion following in parenthe-
ses, and accompanying maps. using extensive
metric annotations in their original farm carry a
conversion table. Both U.S. and other measure-
ments may be given, as in the case of a table, when
contributing to utility.
Measurements are expressed in terms consistent
with the inherent or required degree of accuracy,
(e.g., 2,340 miles of coast, 16' 61/4" bridge clear-
ance) . Conversions are exact when appropriate;
a rounded original figure is not converted into an
inconsistently exact figure; rounded conversions
may be used with a modifying "about" or "approxi-
mate". Units of measurement with varying mean-
ings are clearly defined, e.g., statute miles or nau-
tical miles, short tons or long tons. Both quan-
tity and value may be given when useful for indi-
cating relative importance. In financial data,
conversion factors with date are included.
6. RETURN OF MATERIAL
Detailed procedures governing the return of sub-
mitted material are established in NIS supple-
mentary instructions.
7. EDITORIAL STYLE
Development of style for all forms of NIS content
is a continuing and coordinated result of contribu-
tor and D/B processing of the various types of ma-
terial. For all matters of style not so developed,
and not indicated by specific D/B instructions, the
current Government Printing Office Style Manual
governs.

OUTLINE GUIDE
The fallowing outline guide indicates substance and general arrangement.
In preparation and typing of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instructions are
to be followed in detail.
A conventional CHAPTER I should be a succinct
presentation of the salient basic intelligence aspects
of the NIS Area as a whole. It should present a
clear, concise, over-all view of the principal factors
concerning the NIS Area under consideration and,
while stressing succinctness, should contain suffi-
cient detail to render it adequate within itself to
serve as the basis for initial strategic planning.
More specifically, CHAPTER I should accomplish the
following
Present a clear over-all view of the NIS Area con-
cerned.
Not only present the salient basic intelligence as-
pects of the NIS Area concerned but also evaluate
the significance of these aspects.
Integrate in any one section those aspects of other
sections which serve to enhance the meaningfulness
of the first.
The presentation should be made through the
medium of succinct textual discussions supple-
mented by comprehensive graphic aids wherever
practicable. The text may be used to interpret and
augment intelligence portrayed graphically but
should not repeat such intelligence.
SECTIONS 12 to 18, 1nC1US1Ve, Of CHAPTER I Will
be prepared by-the agencies which produce the cor-
responding NIS CHAPTERS II to VIII, inclusive.
SECTIONS 10, 11, and 19 will be prepared by CIA with
joint assistance and approval.
CHAPTER I will be published as a complete
chapter. No CHAPTER I will be produced until
CHAPTERS II-IX, inclusive, have been completed
and have been edited by CIA. The cut-off date for
all sections of CHAPTER I will be that of the latest
produced Of CHAPTERS II-IX. Preliminary drafts

CONFIDENTIAL CHAPTER I JUNE 1951
of CHAPTER I sections, at least containing a sum-
mary of the salient basic intelligence aspects of
the Chapter concerned and preliminary graphics,
will be drawn up shortly after the completion of
the CHAPTERS II-IX to which they pertain and sub-
mitted to the CHAPTER I Subcommittee for prelimi-
nary processing.
To enable the preparation Of SECTION 10, each
IAC Agency w:~ll submit to CIA a draft setting forth
the Agency's version of its aspects of SECTION 10
and these drafts will then be integrated by CIA
into an over-a:ll draft of the section to be approved
by the IAC Agencies.
Section 10. Introduction
This Section is the medium for explaining to the
user, among other items, the following:
1) The purpose of the NIS
2) The relation of CHAPTER I to the other NIS
Chapters
3) The significantpractices used in the NIS such
as, standard names, standard base maps, and cross
references
4) Any special treatment or omission of intelli-
gence applicable to the NIS under consideration
5) A complete -table of contents for all chapters
of the NIS
Section 11. Strategic Significance of the NIS Area
This Section should give the reader an over-all
appreciation of the basic intelligence aspects of
the NIS Area. It should be designed to impress
the user from the outset with the more permanent
strategic significance of the area but to avoid
purely temporary strategic estimates. In order
to accomplish this purpose, SECTION 11 should be
based upon the intelligence set forth in SECTIONS
12-19 and integrated so that the basic strength and
the weakness of the country become apparent.
Only those elements of basic intelligence which are
required to portray the strategic significance of the
particular area should be included.
Each SECTION 11 must be custom made to fit the
area under discussion, and no prescribed topic out-
line can be set forth. With the exception of the
section title no topic headings will be inserted.
The opening paragraph, however, shall state very
briefly the conclusions drawn from what follows
in the remainder of the section and draw attention
in a few words to what is strategically important
about the area. For instance, it might be appro-
priate to state that a specific country is important
from the strategic viewpoint because of its key
geographical location in a certain part of the world,
any important strength factors, and the principal
weaknesses.
The remainder of SECTION 11 should be an inte-
grated portrayal discussing the important elements
of the country from which are drawn the conclu-
sions in the first paragraph. The discussion
should include the strategic significance to be at-
tached to the geographical location and significant
air distances to important localities in other areas,
and, where applicable, the significance of the NIS
Area militarily, politically, sociologically, scientifi-
cally, and economically. For instance, the coun-
try may have a key strategic location and have
political, sociological, and economic, but no scien-
tific or military significance. If so the significant
but not the insignificant features would be in-
cluded in the discussion. No attempt should be
made to introduce elements not pertinent to the
conclusions.
In conjunction with the text there should be a
composite map portraying the principal basic in-
telligence elements susceptible to such portrayal.
At the end of SECTION 11 of each NIS there shall
be an editorial note stating that SECTIONS 12-19
which follow correspond to CHAPTERS II-IX. In
the event that a whole Chapter, or Section of
CHAPTER I, of a particular NIS is to be omitted, a
statement to ghat effect, together with the reasons
for such omission, shall appear.

SECTIONS 12-19, inclusive, will provide an orderly
arrangement of supporting evidence for SECTION 11
and a concise summary of the significant factual
and interpretive conclusions evolved in CHAPTERS
II-IX. They will thus ensure the reliability of
SECTION 11, and at the same time, fill the need for
a usable digest of the substance of the NIS.
Each section should always include Subsection
A, "General" and such other sections as may be
necessary for proper treatment of the principal ele-
ments of that topic. There should be a final sub-
section, Comments on Principal Sources, except in
SECTION 19 which does not require this treatment.
A. General
An over-all appreciation of the salient features
of strategic significance which are included in the
Chapter under discussion. This Subsection is not
intended to be a mere summary of what is included
in the following subsections but should be a suc-
cinct analysis of the most important elements of
the topic as a whole. The significance of the basic
intelligence aspects should be included and also
those aspects of other sections should be integrated
which serve to enhance its meaningfulness. The
contributing agencies may include such strength
and weakness factors as the agencies deem appro-
priate for an adequate presentation.
B.-X. Succinct summaries of salient features
Each subsection is to be a succinct summary of
the salient topics covered in one or more of the
sections of the corresponding chapter of the NIS.
Should one or more sections of any given chapter be
omitted for a particular country or be considered
of insufficient importance to warrant summarizing
In CHAPTER I, they should be omitted in CHAPTER
I treatment. For example, since Switzerland has
no seacoast, CHAPTER II of that NIS would not
contain SECTION 22, COASTS AND LANDING BEACHES;
and no corresponding subsections would appear in
CHAPTER I. Also, where deemed appropriate, sev-
eral sections of the relevant chapter may be sum-
marized in a single subsection of CHAPTER I. For
example, it might be feasible in a particular NIS
to summarize in a single subsection of CHAPTER I
the salient transportation factors regarding roads,
,railroads, and inland waterways.
Y. Comments on principal sources
Comprehensive evaluation of the basic intelli-
gence contained in the chapter under considera-
tion, including the pointing out of significant gaps
or deficiencies and the general credence to be at-
tached to the subject matter. In view of the in-

OUTLINE GUIDE
The following outline guide indicates substance and general arrangement.
In preparation and typing of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instructions are
to be followed in detail.
The six sections of CHAPTER II cover the strategic,
regional, and topical aspects of the military geog-
raphy of the NIS Geographic Area. Clear distinc-
tion between these three aspects of military geog-
raphy is essential to the orderly preparation of
these sections and to the efficient use of the
chapter.
SECTION 2O, INTRODUCTION, furnishes a strategic
appreciation of the NIS Geographic Area-as a whole
in relation to its surroundings. The Section is a
broad evaluation and although based in consider-
able part on SECTION 21 has much wider scope, in-
cluding discussion of interrelationships between
regions, and evaluations of external approaches,
strategic areas, and internal routes. It should
contain one or more over-all intelligence maps de-
picting such essential elements as strategic areas,
coastal and other approaches, barriers to move-
ment, and corridors and passes favorable to move-
ment.
SECTION 21, MILITARY GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS, 1S
an integration and analysis of the key military
aspects of SECTIONS 22 through 25. It presents
for each region the significant elements treated in
these sections in terms of their combined effects on
military operations, avoiding over-all strategic con-
siderations on the one hand and unnecessary repe-
tition of topical information on the other. Presen-
tation may be by text, tables, and maps. For each
region, the text summarizes and evaluates in terms
of military significance the outstanding military ge-
ographic characteristics of that region; the text is
supported by individual regional tables, based on
more detailed material in SECTIONS 22 through 25,
presenting the environmental characteristics and
military evaluation of the region and of any sub-
regions and/or distinctive areas. into which it is
divided. Intelligence maps and other graphics
present military analysis of the environmental fac-
tors of each region, subregion, or group of regions.
SECTIONS 22 through 25 (arid SUPPLEMENT IV)
comprise the detailed topical treatments of the sub-
ject matter necessary for NIS purposes. Within
each topic or subtopic the material is organized
on a regional or locality basis, as for individual
sectors or subsectors of coast, regions characterized
by similarities of climate, terrain, soil, or vegeta-
tion, and individual urban areas.
The outline presented is designed to provide a
basis for appraisal of the military significance of
the geography of any NIS area. It is intended to
be sufficiently flexible to be adaptable to any pecu-
liar situation that the authors of CHAPTER II may
encounter.
.Each topical heading in the outline must, how-
ever, be considered by the authors. As. indicated in
the guidance for each section, adequate latitude is
provided to permit presentation of each topic in the
clearest and simplest form, where alternative forms
of presentation are practicable.
In the event that modification of the outline, or a
part thereof, is considered by an author to be
desirable for a particular NIS Area, the proposed
modification will not be made without prior ap-
proval by the Chapter Coordinator.

Section 20. Introduction
This Section is prepared by Army from material
provided by all contributors to CHAPTER II. It is
designed to provide the reader with a succinct
evaluation of (1) the external geographic rela-
tionships of the NIS Geographic Area and (2) its
dominantly significant internal geographic charac-
teristics. The Section will be prepared after SEC-
Tlorrs 21 through 25 have been completed. It will
not, however, be an abridgement of either these sec-
t10nS Or of SECTION 12 of CHAPTER I. PhotOgraphS
of especially significant aspects of military geog-
raphy covered by SECTION 20 will be included as
pertinent.
A. Location, size, shape, and boundaries
The significant aspects of the location, size,
shape, and boundaries of the NIS Geographic Area
as a whole will be presented in integrated para-
graphs without topical headings, supported by
1) a map on which the NIS Geographic Area is cen-
tered on an azimuthal projection and on which
concentric circles of air distances are included and
2) a map demonstrating the comparative areas of
the NIS Geographic Area and of the United States
or North America.
S. Dominant geographic elements
All facts of the environment as presented in
SECTIONS 21 through 25 will be considered by Army
in preparing this discussion, and those environ-
mental elements that are dominantly significant
will be treated in integrated statements sup-
ported by one or more over-all intelligence maps
and the minimum number of maps from SECTIONS
21 through 25 that are considered desirable to
demonstrate the significance of the selected
factors.
C. Strategic areas
Each strategic area of the NIS Geographic Area
will be defined and briefly described by Army on the
basis of the applicability of one or more of the fol-
lowing factors (or other pertinent factors) which
are of national or international significance: criti-
cal and/or key industries (especially military end-
products plants) ; critical and other strategically
significant mining developments and mineral re-
sources; key transportation and communications
centers and facilities; military installations includ-
ing key offensive, defensive, and supporting facili-
ties; population concentrations (ethnic, religious,
social, including significant minorities) ; key ter-
rain features (passes, corridors, ,beaches, air-drop
sites) ; food resources, including production and
storage centers; etc. Strategic areas will be delim-
ited on a map with the approaches to and internal
routes of the NIS Geographic Area.
Strategic, for the purposes of evaluating strategic
significance in the NIS Geographic Area, is defined
as: pertaining to the implications of any of the
above factors upon a nation's developing and using
political, economic, and psychological means and/
or armed forces during peace or war to afford the
maximum support to national policies, to increase
the probabilities and favorable consequences of vic-
tory, and to lessen the chances of defeat.
D. Approaches and internal routes
Evaluations of the air, sea, and ground ap-
proaches to the NIS Geographic Area as a whole
will be prepared by Air Force, Navy, and Army re-
spectively and coordinated by Army. Air ap-
proaches will be presented on a quadrant basis. All
approaches will be shown in suitable manner on a
map showing the strategic areas and internal
routes of the NIS Geographic Area. Internal
routes will be evaluated and selected with respect
to the strategic areas within this and adjacent NIS
Areas; first on the basis of current logistical capa-
bilities and second on the basis of potentialities
for logistical development. Routes lacking exist-
ing transportation facilities capable of carrying
military trafpic will be .evaluated similarly in re-
lation to routes having such facilities. All selected
routes will be delimited and classified on the stra-
tegic areas map which will be supported by concise
tabular or textual evaluation.

Section 21. Military Geographic Regions
This Section will be prepared by Army and will
include material provided by Air Force and Navy.
It will be an analysis of the NIS Geographic Area
in terms of military geographic regions. The
military geographic region as discussed in the NIS
is a region in which the combination of environ-
mental conditions is sufficiently uniform to per-
mit, or to require, throughout its extent the use
of the same general mode of military operations
or kinds of warfare and of the same general types
of equipment and personnel. Minor areas in
which conditions significantly affect but do not
prevent the basic mode of military operations may
be considered either as military geographic sub-
regions or as distinctive areas within the military
geographic region, e.g., a hill belt in a large plain.
The military geographic regions and subregions
for each NIS Geographic Area will be delimited
on a map by the Army agency responsible for pro-
duction Of SECTION 21 after topics treated in SEC-
Tlorrs 22 through 25 have been analyzed sufficiently
to permit fixing of boundaries. All CHAPTER II
contributors concerned will concur on regional and
subregional boundaries previous to any agency's
initiating final production of SECTION 21 material.
A. General
A military geographic regions map will show
boundaries of the various regions, subregions,
and/or distinctive areas. Regional breakdown will
also be presented as a list in the text or as a concise
tabular summary. Introductory integrated text
will summarize significant aspects of each region
as is necessary to relate the regions to the NIS
Geographic Area as a whole and to arlalagous or
comparable areas in North America. Photographs
and other graphics may be used for illustration.
B. Regional analysis: Regions A, B, etc.
A concise textual analysis and a tabular sum-
mary of each region and its various subregions
and/or distinctive areas will be given. Each re-
gion will appear as a separate numbered heading.
Intelligence-type maps showing interrelated fac-
tors will be presented for each region, group of re-
gions, or important part of a region.
The tabular summary of each military geo-
graphic region or subregion, supporting the map
presentation of the region or subregion, will in-
clude the topics shown in the sample layout.

FzcuRE 21-1. ANALYSIS OF SINGLE MILITARY GEOGRAPHIC REGION OR GROUPS OF REGIONS (Continued)
INSTRUCTIONS
1) All data in this summary will be presented in tele-
graphic form. The above format will be used, to be
reproduced on a double-page spread, map apron, or
fold-in.
2) Arrange regions in Column I in alphabetical se-
quence (i.e., Region A, Region B, etc.) and identify each
by name. Data included directly under each topic by re-
gions will concern those attributes which are character-
istic of the region as a whole.
3) Arrange subregions and/or distinctive areas in Col-
umn I in alphabetical and numerical sequence under the
appropriate region (i.e., Subregion A-I, Subregion A-2,
etc.) .
4) Treat content of all Environmental Factors and
Military Evaluation columns in definitive terms. Use
salient statistics and facts to categorize the regional,
subregional, or distinctive area characteristics when perti-
nent. A high degree of discrimination must be exercised
in the selection of data to be included in the tabular
summary for each topic. Include only those essential
elements treated in other sections. If a particular topic
is not applicable for any region, subregion, or distinctive
area, the words "not applicable" will be included in the
relevant space in the summary.
5) Under the heading of Military Operations include
factual statements on known types of military operations
such as airborne, amphibious, arctic, armored, cavalry,
desert, infantry, jungle, and mountain, conducted in the
region, or identify the region with a geographically
analogous area for which types of modern operations are
known. Statements should particularly bear on the ex-
tent to which specialized forces were employed in opera-
tions and whether such employment was required by en-
vironmental factors. If the success or lack of success
of either conventional or specialized types of operations
in the region can be definitely attributed to environmental
factors, this should be noted.

(Coordinates of limits of subsector.)
(Figure numbers of beach location maps of
subsector; U.S.H.O. Charts of subsector.)
Subsectors should be selected as logical coastal
units in which hydrographic or terrain conditions,
or both, are sufficiently uniform to permit general-
ization. Limiting of subsectors to lengths con-
venient for the making of beach location maps
leads to unnecessary repetition in the description
of the areas covered by such maps.

scription of general characteristics of subsector;
very brief if covered in generalization under sector
heading.
a. CoesT -Progressing along coast, give for
each part brief statement of offshore approach and
shore features, followed by description of coastal
terrain and brief description of anchorages. Give
reference to applicable U.S.H.O. Chart if several
charts cover area of subsector. Leave description
of beaches to heading (b) . Avoid duplicating in-
formation that is clearly and correctly conveyed by
the beach location maps (distances, shapes, and
dimensions of bays and islands, spot heights, etc.) ,
except where such duplication is essential to clear
statement. Coastal description of subsector may
be broken into subdivisions (1), (2), (3), etc., as
plotted on beach location maps. Subdivisions
should be logical coastal units such as a stretch of
fairly uniform. coast, an island or group- of islands,
a bay or group of similar bays, a prominent penin-
sula.
b. LANDING BEACHES -Exclude general coastal
description. Beach areas are each identified by
reference number in parentheses keyed to encircled

X. Comments on principal sources
This Subsection is to serve the following pur-
poses
1) To provide an evaluation of the principal
source material used in preparing the Section and
thereby inform the user of the general credibility
to be accorded the intelligence contained in the
Section.
2) To indicate those aspects of the subject about
which information is deficient or unavailable and
thereby provide collectors of information with col-
lection targets. In this connection, the principal
sources (not necessarily all sources) actually used
should be indicated.
Section 23. Weather and G'limate
A. General weather and climatic conditions
This Subsection emphasizes the processes
which control climatic regimes and contains
the bulk of general climatic discussion. In-
clude figures, photos, maps, and those tables
which are necessary to illustrate especially
significant climatic factors. Illustrate destructive
effects of weather and weather phenomena such as
dust storms, tornadoes, fog banks, etc. Discuss
the general weather and climate conditions in
their broad aspects emphasizing those elements
and factors having significance in regard to high-
level military operational planning as specified by
the various agencies of the Department of Defense.
Subdivision of the NIS Geographic Area into mili-
tarily significant climatic regions is desirable de-
pending upon the weather and climatic conditions
in the particular NIS Geographic Area.
B. Weather and military operations (text, il-
lustrations, and significant tables)
1. AIR OPERATIONS (above friction layer)
Discuss climatic factors and conditions which
affect all types of aerial operations, e.g., cloudiness,
visibility, icing, turbulence, thunderstorms, winds
and temperatures aloft, dust and blowing sand in
the upper air, and special upper-air weather phe-
nomena. Tables to contain data significant to
aerial operatioli.
2. AIR-GROUND OPERATIONS (within friction
layer)
Discuss climatic factors which affect chemical
and biological warfare, control of atmospheric con-
tamination,parachute, aircraft landing, glider, and
similar operations which take place within the
lower layers of the atmosphere. These conclusions
result from analyses of vertical temperature, mois-
ture, density, and wind structure as influenced by
topography and large-scale meteorological condi-
tions and their translation into microclimatic
terms; i.e., distributions (local) of wind, tempera-
ture, humidity, stability, fog, haze, etc., as func-
tions of location and topography. Give full con-
sideration to t11e periodic (diurnal and seasonal)
and non-periodic variations in stability, visibility,
temperature, humidity, etc.
3. GROUND SURFACE OPERATIONS
Discuss briefly movement of equipment, mobility,
clothing, construction, storage, shelter, etc., in
terms of precipitation, temperature, floods, dry and
wet periods, etc., using illustrative tables when
necessary to emphasize important elemelts. Make
reference to SECTION 24 for the effect of climate on
state of ground and cross-country movement.

Section 24. Topography
This Section is prepared by Army. It is designed
to be topical treatment for the NIS Geographic
Area as a whole of those environmental factors not
treated in SECTIONS 22, 23, and 25 of CHAPTER II
and it is intended that maps and tables be used
to the practicable maximum in presenting the in-
formation. Photographs will be used for illustra-
tive purposes within the topical scope of the Sec-
tion. A reliability diagram will accompany each
topical map included in the Section.
A. General
Appraise briefly the relative significance of the
elements which comprise the topography of the
NIS Geographic Area under discussion.
S. Descriptive analysis
Each of the subordinate topics will treat in
factual terms descriptively and definitively those as-
pects of the topic which are known to have military
significance. Statements on military interpreta-
tions or applications will be confined to Subsection
24, C. Subsection 24, B, will include only such eval-
uations as are prescribed in the following para-
graphs. The discussion of each topic as a whole
will be in proportion to its relative significance in
the NIS Geographic Area with respect to other
topics treated in the Section. Seasonal aspects
will be considered wherever significant. Tabular
presentation will be used to a practicable maximum.
A map will be prepared for each topic where appro-
priate.
1. LANDFORMS, RELIEF, AND DRAINAGE
PATTERN
Cover with an integrated discussion developed
around maps, supported by text and tables, which
treat definitively the essential elements of the topic
with emphasis on the larger aspects of the patterns
involved.
2. DRAINAGE CHARACTERISTICS
Include the essential following (or other perti-
nent) data in their seasonal aspects for signifi-
cant streams, lakes, and other water features
depths, widths, banks, bottom conditions, veloci-
ties, gradients, transparency or turbidity, sedimen-
tation, temperatures, and ice conditions. The
treatment will be in tabular and graphic form
supported by essential text.
3. WATER RESOURCES
Definitive information on quantities, qualities,
availability, accessibility, and distribution of sur-
face- and ground-water supplies will be presented
in map (s) , table (s) , and text. Data on qualities
and quantities will be selected in relation to all
probable military uses of water and not only with
respect to potability.
4. SOILS
The treatment of soils will be developed around
a simplified soils map showing dominant soil units
and supported by a table and text describing their
physical characteristics and evaluating their engi-
neering properties.
5. LITHOLOGY

6. VEGETATION
Existing significant vegetation types will be de-
limited on a map supported by table (s) and text
describing physical characteristics such as heights,
density of stand, stem diameters, coloration, cul-
tivation practices, etc., and evaluating their poten-
tial usefulness as construction materials and as
sources of supplies, and their susceptibility to con-
flagration.
7. STATE OF THE GROUND
This topic will be prepared by Army after SEC-
TION 23 and Subsections 24, B, 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 have
been completed. It will be developed around maps
supported by tables and text and will be a syn-
thesis showing the seasonal occurrence and char-
acteristics of the ground when dry, wet, frozen
hard, and snow covered.
8. CULTURE FEATURES
Cover with an integrated discussion of the loca-
tion and distribution of cultural objects which
exist in sufpicient concentrations to possess signifi-
cance in planning of major military operations.
Such features as mines, quarries, tombs, burial
mounds, dikes, ditches, transportation nets, hedge
rows, terraces, etc., will be evaluated and pre-
sented in map (s) , table (s) , and photographs sup-
porting the text.
9. SPECIAL PHYSICAL PHENOMENA
Such factors as permafrost, seismic disturbances,
and volcanic phenomena peculiarly applicable to
the NIS Geographic Area being considered and of
outstanding significance will be presented in map
and table form supported by an integrated textual
discussion. This discussion will give definitive in-
formation on the phenomena within the area con-
cerned; it will not be concerned with general or
theoretical aspects of the subject.
C. Military evaluation
1. CROSS-COUNTRY MOVEMENT
Evaluate all environmental conditions affecting
off-road movement of military vehicles, equipment,
and personnel throughout the year.
2. CONSTRUCTIONAL ASPECTS
Evaluate the feasibility of constructing air-
fields, roads, shelters, and underground installa-
tions during the various seasons as affected by the
collective environmental factors. Where the nat-
ural conditions of the NIS Geographic. Area war-
rant, roads may be combined in a single topic with
airfields. Otherwise each topic will be presented
separately in accordance with the outline. Spe-
cific military constructional problems other than
those applicable to airfields, roads, and under-
ground installations will be treated under such
additional subordinate headings as are required.
3. OTHER MILITARY ASPECTS
Evaluate such other military aspects as are not
subject to discussion under Cross-country Move-
ment or Constructional Aspects but that are af-
fected by environmental topics treated in SECTION
24.
D. Comments on principal sources
This Subsection is to serve the following pur-
poses
1) To provide an evaluation of the principal
source material used in preparing the Section and
thereby inform the user of the general. credibility
to be accorded the intelligence contained in the
Section.
2) To indicate those aspects of the subject about
which information is deficient or unavailable and
thereby provide collectors of information with col-

should be indicated.
Section 25. Urban Areas
This Section is designed to be a digest of
information on the physical aspects of the
urban areas in the NIS Area supplemented by
pertinent generalized comments concerning their
geographic, political, economic, and military im-
portance. Where the general composition of the
cities and towns in the area lends itself to com-
parison with the cities and towns in a geographic
area of the United States or with those of coun-
tries in the same geographic, political, or economic
group, such comparison is .desirable. Data will
be presented for the NIS Area as a whole, except
when such treatment might be misleading for an
included subarea. When the aI?ea under consid-
eration is divided into distinctive geographic, po-
litical, or economic subareas, the data may be
presented by appropriate subarea.
Tables and charts will be utilized to a maximum
to supplement descriptive text. Town plans will
emphasize those natural and man-made features
of the urban area and its environs that are of
primary military significance. They will supple-
ment the text and tabulated data. Each key stra-
tegic urban area will be illustr. ated by suitable

OUTLINE GUIDE
The following outline guide indicates substance and ge~ieral arrangement.
In preparation and typing of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instructions are
to be followed in detail.
Section 40. Introduction
A. General character of the society
This Subsection should provide a concise syn-
thesis of the general character of the society and
civilization. It should not be merely a summary of
materials elaborated in the remainder of the chap-
ter, but an over-all picture, answering questions
such as the following:
1) What are the main patterns and trends of
social life and social organization? Are they based
primarily on an agricultural or industrial tradition,
on a mixed or other type of economy?
2) Is the society stable or unstable, is it con-
fused, disunited, or imbued with a sense of common
destiny and mission?
3) What is the status of, and the relationships
among, the various classes, races, religious denomi-
nations, nationality or language groups?
4) What are the dominant social motives of the
average citizen-economic, cultural, religious, ra-
cial, etc.?
5) Do the people have an individualistic or col-
lectivist bent or tradition; are these opposite tend-
encies harmoniously combined or at war with each
other?
6) What is the pattern of public opinion forma-
tion and of individual thought? For example, are
the people predominantly logical, romantic, prag-
matic, or otherwise in their approach to individual
and national problems? Are they prone to com-
promise, to legalistic attitudes, to uncritical self-
justification? Is it easy or difficult to influence
them by propaganda?
B. Historical setting
Give a brief resume of such facts in this history of
the country as are essential to an understanding of
the origins of the people, their prevailing tradi-
tions, and their orientation toward neighboring
and related peoples. The form of presentation
may be either chronological or analytical but
should not be an exhaustive chronicle of events.
Omit so far as possible political background ma-
terial, which should be presented in CHAPTER V,
SECTION 50. Effort should be made through coor-
dination to avoid duplicating or omitting impor-
tant background material in these two sections.

Section 41. Population
A. General
This Subsection should provide an appropriate
approach to the material in the remainder of the
section. It should include a brie f statement of
the major aspects of population size, distribution
and change and their significant relationships
with economic and other problems of the country
concerned. It should not be merely a digest of
what follows.
B. Size and geographical distribution
Give brief comparative data on the size and
density of the population as of postwar census or
estimate. Present a table of area and population
in the chief administrative subdivisions (prov-
inces, departments, states, etc.) with number of
persons per square mile, preferably accompanied
by a map of population density for location pur-
poses. Indicate the general pattern of settle-
ment-orientation toward the sea, river commerce,
industrial area, agricultural plains, etc.
Give percent of population, rural and urban-is
it concentrated in major agglomerations or dis-
persed? Tabulate population in larger cities
(postwar census or estimate for a recent date) and
(if possible) in the chief metropolitan areas. Dis-
cuss the role of internal migration in the redistri-
bution of population. Indicate the chief origins,
destinations and causes of internal migratory
movements, particularly rural-urban migration.
attributable to World War II. (Cross-reference to
SECTION 8O, E, Manpower.)
D. Population change
1. HISTORICAL GROWTH
Cite dates and figures for national censuses and
give brief comparisons with neighboring ar rival
countries. Has the country been a population
vacuum (cf. France) or a source of outward popu-
lation pressure (Germany, Japan) ? What are the
factors affecting growth and their present trends?
2. VITAL STATISTICS
Tabulate births, deaths, and excess of births over
deaths for postwar years. Give vital rates per
1,000 population for postwar years and such earlier
dates (e.g., averages for 1921-1925, 1926-1930,
1931-1935, and 1936-1939) as are necessary to give
proper perspective. If possible, give infant mor-
tality rates (infant deaths in first year of -life
per 1,000 births) for the same dates.
3. IMMIGRATION AND EMIGRATION
If available, give table showing immigrants by
chief country of origin and emigrants by chief
country of destination for postwar years and sum-
marized for prewar periods (cf. vital rates above) .
Indicate the residue of migration as measured by
the number of foreign-born and the number of
aliens and naturalized citizens. Discuss war mi-
grations and population dislocations (if any).
C. Population structure
Tabulate population (in thousands) classified by
five-year age groups (0-4, 5-9, 10-14, . 65 and
over) for males, females, and total as of postwar
census or estimate for January 1, of the year of NIS
publication. Is there a significant deficit of males,
and, if so, at what ages? Is it customary for all
adults to marry or is there a large spinster popu-
lation arising from late marriage or other factors?
Is it a young or an old population? Indicate per-
cent of the total in working ages (e.g., 15-64) and
in dependent ages (e.g., 0-14 and 65 and over) . Is
there a heavy burden of old age dependency, child
dependency, or both relative to the working popu-
lation? Note any significant abnormalities in the
age structure (cf. deficits of males in young work-
ing ages owing to war losses) .
Give best available estimates of military casual-
ties, civilian casualties, and total population loss
E. Population problems and policy
Indicate prospective future population trends.
Discuss problems presented by growth, decline, or
distribution of the population, together with the
attitudes of the people and the government towards
these problems. Indicate migration policies and
discuss the present and prospective role of migra-
tion and settlement (e.g., in relieving population
pressure or in developing thinly populated areas).

eign languages. Indicate briefly the extent to
which dialects are spoken and the extent to which
speakers of the different dialects can understand
each other. Maps showing the distribution of sig-
nificant dialects are useful.

a. CLASS sTRATIFICATION -Describe and ana-
lyze the class system of the country, indicating the
basis upon which the important class lines are
drawn, whether racial, religious, economic, or
other. What degree of social mobility exists?

East gives these proportions for many countries be-
fore the war. Figures can be adjusted for any
transfer of language groups that occurred during
or since World War II.
What are the trends with respect to the size
and composition of the social classes? What are
the implications of class division as regards politi-
cal activity and national solidarity? Do some
classes combine for political power over others?
What combinations of this sort now exist? Are
class distinctions forgotten in a national emer-
gency?
b. SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS AND MOVEMENTS -
Describe important social organizations and move-
ments other than those formed on the basis of class
or family; such as, secret societies, cooperatives,
lodges, business and professianal associations,
youth movements, and other groups not covered
elsewhere. Indicate the professed and apparent
real aims, the number and character of member-
ship. What factors determine status, prestige, and
leadership? Estimate the financial resources, and

of kinship groupings, whether the single family,
joint family, clan, etc., with emphasis on differences
from the United States.
3. SOCIAL VALUES AND PATTERNS OF LIV-
ING
Describe customs and characteristic ways of life,
rural or urban, which are of significance as regards
the maintenance of national unity, actual or po-
tential military power, relations with foreigners,
or where applicable the introduction of Western
ideas and techniques. For example, do the social
values emphasize rigid conformity or permit con-
siderable freedom for deviant behavior? Where
these are significantly different from the United
States, diagnose basic attitudes toward life and
death, toward work and leisure, toward change,
toward authority and the role of the individual.
Is there emphasis on obedience to authority?
What are the most effective sanctions motivating
or inhibiting behavior, e.g., prestige, material re-
wards, ostracism, legal punishments, etc. In pub-
lic life are there tendencies toward nepotism, in-
difference to corruption, etc., which have implica-
tions for national unity? Are there significant

1) To provide an evaluation of the principal
source material used in preparing the Section and
thereby inform the user of the general credibility
to be accorded the intelligence contained in the
Section.
2) To indicate those aspects of the subject -about
which information is deficient or unavailable and

Section 44. Manpower
A. General
The purpose of this Subsection is to provide an
appropriate approach to a full consideration of
the problem of manpower and its capabilities. It
should not be merely a digest of what follows in
the remainder of the Section. It should present
an evaluative summary in terms of such basic
characteristics as a predominantly agricultural
population with limited adaptation to industry, or
a tradition of significant craft workmanship, or
considerable maturity in mass production. Sea-
sonal migration of working manpower as well as
trends from rural to manufacturing or service oc-
cupation should be discussed. The discussion
should indicate the social framework for labor, in-
cluding any religious or other traditional aspects
affecting both the present and potential status and
productivity of the total work force. The nature
and extent of labor organization should be dis-
cussed as a segment of the total situation. Brief
consideration should be given the amount and ex-
tent of dependency within the population, and the
nature of those groups which outside of the labor
force, may constitute a potential source of man-
power or an obstacle to its fuller utilization.
B. Manpower analysis
In this Subsection a brief but comprehensive ap-
praisal of the labor potential is desired in relation
to the total population and its dependent elements.
(Cross-reference to SECTION 80 and appropriate sec-
ti0I1S Of CHAPTER VI.)
1. MANPOWER IN RELATION TO TOTAL
POPULATION
a. GENERAL MANPOWER POSITION - Taking
into. account all the pertinent elements in the fol-
lowingSubsection 2, give a brief summary and eval-
uation of manpower potential in relation to the
total population. Show the growth of the labor
force, past and future, and make a comparison
with other countries, where relevant, for propor-
tions of various elements in the labor force (by
sex).
b. RESIDUAL POPULATION -Dependent groups
infants and other dependent children, old people,
unfit to work, the helplessly crippled and bedrid-
den, the insane and chronically ill, and confined
criminals and prisoners. Estimate the extent and
amount of burden on the working population.
2. LABOR FORCE
It is expected that the following analysis will not
only estimate the size or proportion and occupa-
tional distribution (labor force particularly) but
also will evaluate the capabilities of the various
categories and groups within the labor force.
a. DISTRIBUTION BY INDUSTRY AND OCCUPA-
TION -Where possible show distribution in tabu-
lar form by 1) industry group, 2) occupation, and
3) occupational status (employers, self-employed,
employees) . This will include all categories of em-
ployment as well as the armed services. The same
form can not be used for all countries because of
differences in the methods of reporting labor sta-
tistics (e.g., for many countries, breakdowns will
be available for either industry group ar occupa-
tion, but not both) . The data for each occupa-

tional group in the table should show number of
males, females, total, percent of total labor force.
Compare the industrial and occupational structure
of the labor force with neighboring or otherwise
relevant countries.
Show the age-sex structure of the labor force
with special reference to young workers, women
and older workers and possible expansion of these
groups when manpower demand requires.
Indicate the significant aspects of geographic
distribution of the workers, especially as to concen-
trations of types of workers and skills in specific
localities. State whether any trades or other activ-
ities are the special province of any particular
religious, ethnic, or other groups.
Analyze the characteristics of the labor supply
as to the proportion of skilled and unskilled work-
ers. Discuss the productivity of labor in agricul-
ture and other important branches of production,
with special reference to human and technological
factors affecting output, e.g., ability and willing-
ness of labor to learn new techniques, interchange-
ability of manual labor, government and union
restrictions, managerial ability, etc.
b. LABOR RESERVE
(1) Unemp~Zoyed persons -These are part
of the labor force, are available, but are not actively
employed. They include migrants, refugees, dis-
placed persons, workers laid off through cut-backs,
those in process of changing jobs, unpaid helpers
(dependents, usually family), and victims of mis-
fortune (on relief). Discuss from standpoint of
availability and qualification to work (usability) .
(2) Potential reserve -Discuss reserve la-
bor supply : housewives, students, qualified and fit
overage persons, children, under-employed, and
partially disabled and certain types of convicts
and prisoners.
C. Standards and practices of employment
1. UTILIZATION OF POTENTIAL LABOR
SUPPLY
Discuss method and degree of utilization, e.g., is
there a feudal system or not? Is labor used to its
full capacity? Indicate any institutional or other
handicaps affecting labor's efficiency. Unemploy-
ment is one factor which operates against full utili-
zation, and its causes should be briefly discussed.
What industries are most affected?
2. WAGES AND WORKING CONDITIONS
Describe methods of wage determination. Indi-
cate briefly trends of-wage rates and real earning,
and the effects on these of government wage-price
policy. Where possible, show the range of wage
rates paid skilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled labor,
and of salaries paid white-collar and professional
workers. Specify wage rates for both men and
women; perhaps also beginners' pay-apprentices,
young workers. Indicate "low-wage" and "high-
wage" industries and trend in the wage gap be-
tween them. In those economies where compensa-
tion is paid wholly or partly in kind, indicate na-
ture of payment. What additions to real income
are derived from such items as social services and
family allowances, old age pensions, sickness in-
surance, etc.? Indicate briefly the character of

In preparation and typing o f manuscript, D/B Editorial ~fnstructions are
to be followed in detail.
Section 50. Introduction
This Section should show the strategic signifi-
cance of the political aspects of the country. It
should include a brief over-all evaluation of the
political strength and international influence of
the nation in terms of degree of national unity,
will to independence, strength of purpose, fighting
spirit, relative stability and efficiency of the politi-
cal systean, locus of power, and basic objectives of
the government and the nation at home and
abroad. It should include a brief political history,
the specific purpose of which is to show t:he im-
pact of history upon. present-day political attitudes
and institutions. (;Political background material
in SECTION 50 shou d be so correlated to the dis-
cussions of historic setting in SECTIONS 40 and 60
that together they will give a rounded picture of
significant social, economic and political history.
The Section should serve as a political introduc-
tion both to the country and the chapter, drawing
upon chapter content but not presenting a sum-
mary.)
Section 51. The Constitutional System
A. General
This Subsection should provide an appropriate
approach to the treatment of the material con-
tained in the remainder of the Section. It should
be brief and should show the significant historical
background of the nation's constitutional system,
taking into account such factors as traditional
respect for and adherence to constitutional proc-
esses. Features which differentiate the present
constitution from those of the past and of other
countries may also be briefly considered. The Sub-
section should indicate the relationship between
the constitutional system and the degree of na-
tional political stability and efficiency.
B. .Constitution
1. ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT
This Subsection should present the immediate
background of the formation of the constitution,
the political, economic and social groups domi-
nant. in its adoption, the foreign influences present,
and the extent to which it represented public
opinion at the time. of adoption.
2. PRINCIPAL FI~~ATURES
This Subsection should give a summation of the
features of the colistitutianal system needed to
grasp its character, including a definition of the
type of government, established, the relationship
between the provisions of the constitution and the
actual practices of the government, its economic
and social provisionsc, and unusual provisions. At-
tention should also be given to the degree of flex-
ibility and to constitutional and legal provisions
for amendment compared with actual practices so
as to indicate the popular control over constitu-
tional change, and to the provisions for, and ac-
tual practice in, handling disagreement in inter-
preting the meanin?; of the constitution.
C. Constitutionals position of the legislative,
executive, and judicial branches
Briefly compare the constitutional and legal
position and power;, with actual practice. (Re-
serve description of organization and procedure of

D. Civil and religious rights and privileges
This Subsection should include constitutional
and legal provisions and a statement of the actual
situation in respect to civil and religious rights
and privileges, considering especially freedom of
speech, press, radio, assembly, organization, and
religion, but also including other rights and privi-
leges peculiar to the country. The rights and
privileges of foreigners, particularly Americans,
should be examined and compared with those of
nationals. With respect to the suffrage, only law
and practice concerning the qualifications of elec-
tors, such as age, sex, and property should be
considered. (Percentage of the population ex-
cluded from voting and extent of actual participa-
tion in elections should be left to Subsection
53, C.)
E. Comments on principal sources
This Subsection is to serve the following pur-
poses
1) To provide an evaluation of the principal
source material used in preparing the Section and
thereby inform the user of the general credibility
to be accorded the intelligence contained in the
Section.
2) To indicate those aspects of the subject about
which information is deficient or unavailable and
thereby provide collectors of information with col-
lection targets. In this connection, the principal
sources (not necessarily all sources) actually used
should be indicated.
Section 52. Structure of the Government
A. General
This Subsection should provide an appropriate
approach to the treatment of material contained
in the remainder of the Section and should be
brief. It should take into consideration condi-
tions, situations and practices which alter opera-
tion or organization of government as provided
for in the constitution. It might also indicate the
extent to which the framework for regional and
local government differs from that established for
the nation as a whole.
B. Central government
This Subsection is to describe briefly the legisla-
tive, executive, administrative and judicial organi-
zation and procedure, including a limited study of
the major agencies of each. Structural organiza-
tion, character of personnel, extent of popular con-
trol and procedures of operation should be in-
cluded. Any significant demands for change on
the part of influential groups should be pointed
out. The material should be presented in such
a way as to give the reader a clear conception of
the effectiveness of the agencies and the actual
locus of power in formation and administration of
public policy.
C. Regional government
This Subsection deals with major political subdi-
visions, e.g., states in the U.S.
The necessity for Subsection 52, C, and the ex-
tent of coverage will vary from country to coun-
try. It may be essential to include some parts of
B above in cases where an understanding of -the
nature of the regional governments is necessary to
an understanding of the operation of the political
systems as a whole. Where important, there also
should be a discussion of the relation of the re-
gional to the central and local governments (e.g.,
Canada and Australia) .
D. Local government
The considerations applicable in Subsections B
and C above are applicable here. Where impor-
tant, the discussion should include an examina-
tion of the relation of the local to the regional
(if any) and central governments.
E. Dependencies and associated states
This Subsection should include a classification
of dependencies (colonies, trust territories, protec-
torates) ,their governmental organization and rela-
tion to the mother country, the extent of internal
conflict and its international and domestic impli-
cations. The Subsection should also discuss the
structure and internal relationships of associations
of states (e.g., British Commonwealth of Nations,
French Union, etc.) which have grown out of pre-
vious colonial relationships. Where a country has
no dependencies, omission of this Subsection is ap-
propriate and such lack of dependencies would
then be mentioned in Subsection A.

Section SS. National Policies
A. General
This Subsection should provide an appropriate
approach to the material presented in the re-
mainder of the section. It should be used to dis-
cuss briefly the fundamental political, economic,
and social factors necessary to understand -na-
tional policies as a whale-e.g., their origins and
the major factors conditioning their formulation
and implementation. In individual instances, it
may be necessary to emphasize the impact of his-
tory upon the development of national policies.
This Subsection might also set forth the impor-
tant interrelationships among domestic, foreign,
and defense policies, especially as to cause and
effect, disproportionate emphasis, and inconsisten-
cies and conflicts. The popularity of national poli-
cies as a whole and their significance to the politi-
cal system might be discussed. Detailed discus-
sion of domestic, foreign, and defense policies
should be left to the following subsections.
B. Domestic policies
This Subsection should provide a general state-
ment on domestic policy as a whale and analyses
of major issues and individual policies not dis-
cussed elsewhere in the NIS that are fundamental
to the stability of government, or that strongly
affect foreign and defense policies. Important
domestic issues or policies treated in detail else-
where in the NIS, especially lri CHAPTERS IV and
VI and in other sections of CHAPTER V, should
be discussed briefly here with appropriate cross
reference. Such discussions should emphasize
long-standing and probably continuing trends,
and should include a brief consideration of the
characteristic political reactions of the people (mis-
trust of power, informal political forums, etc.},
the implementation of policies, and the effects of
domestic policies upon the political system. In
individual instances, it might be advisable to show
the extent to which the domestic policies are patr
terned after or integrated with those of another
government.

extent of participation in international organiza-
tions. and the extent of popular satisfaction with
foreign policies and their conduct. The organiza-
tion and powers of foreign policy-making compo-
nents and their relations to other agencies of the
government should supplement, as necessary, the
treatment given in SECTION 52. The subsection
should treat such factors as evidence of desire
for rectification of borders, measures for exchange
of population, measures. for expulsion of ethnic
groups, extent of adoption of immigration quotas,
and efforts to extend control over foreign areas.
A discussion of major treaties and agreements of
a strategic nature, particularly those with the
United States, should be included. There should
be a brief discussion of the attitudes of the gov-
ernment and of the people toward, foreign nations
(particularly the United States and Americans)

United Nations or regional groupings for defense
or other purposes) , and toward foreign invest-
ments, with appropriate references to detailed dis-
cussions of attitudes in CxePTEx IV.
D. National defense policies
This Subsection should discuss the present de-
fense policies of m~4jor political importance, in-
cluding civil defensf~, and the influence of these
policies upon dome:~tic and foreign policies. It
should describe the role of the defense establish-
ment and of the armed forces in the government as
far as it affects defense policies. Differences in
viewpoint between the military establishment and
the civilian policy-making bodies which are signif-
icant in the formulation of defense policies should
cial defense policies, :including wartime morale and
the influence upon defense policies of official and
popular reactions toward war, rearmament and
compulsory military training.

CHAPTER ,V JUNE 1951
A. General
This Subsection should provide an appropriate
approach to the treatment of the material con-
tained in the remainder of the Section. It should
indicate briefly the degree of susceptibility of the
people being propagandized, considering such fac-
tors as rate of literacy and extent of cultural affin-
ity with neighboring or other states, with appro-
priate reference to CHAPTER IV. It should endeavor
to bring into perspective the categories of propa-
ganda discussed in the following subsections.
B. Domestic propaganda
This Subsection should analyze the aims, policies,
content, and effect of domestic political propa-
ganda. It should explain the policies of the gov-
ernment regarding domestic propaganda acid the
aims of such propaganda. It should also explain
the over-all organization and functioning of the
domestic propaganda system. Charts and dia-
grams should be used whenever practicable. Gov-
ernment controls which as actually practiced are
in conflict with constitutional and legal provisions
should be discussed.
C. Propaganda directed abroad
This Subsection should analyze the aims, policies,
content, and effect of political propaganda on for-
eign peoples. It should also explain the aver-all
organization and functioning of the foreign di-
rected propaganda system.
D. Propaganda b;~ foreign countries
This Subsection sh~~uld analyze the aims, policies,
and content,-and effect of political propaganda dis-
seminated in the country by foreign countries. It
should also explain briefly the or. ganization and
functioning of the foreign propaganda system
aimed at the country.
E. Comments on principal sources
This Subsection i;~ to serve the following pur-
poses
1. To provide an evaluation of the principal
source material used' in preparing the Section and
thereby inform the user of the general credibility
to be accorded the intelligence contained in the
Section.
2. To indicate those aspects of the subject about
which information is deficient or unavailable and
thereby provide collectors of information with col-
lection targets. In this connection, the principal
sourcesy (not necess~~rily all sources) actually used
should be indicated.
Section 59. Biographies of Key Personalities
A. General
This Subsection should deal with key people who
have or are likely to have a vital role in the political
field. A preface should be inserted to provide per-
spective for the treatment accorded the political
personalities in the Section by pointing out the
principal factors in the basis for selection. When
feasible the preface might also point out briefly the
general characteristics of the group of selected per-
sonalities such as political affiliation, training, ex-
perience, education, religion, and social status. It
should also give, where applicable, cross references
to other sections of the NIS Area in which key fig-
ures are discussed. For example, to SECTION 53,
which sometimes includes additional information
on political leaders; t0 SECTION 56, where heads of
intelligence activitiE~s are discussed; to CHAPTER IV,
SECTION 44, which may give data on key labor per-
sonalities; t0 CHAP7.'ER IV, SECTION 43, which nor-
mally contains information on key figures in edu-
cation, religion and. public information, .especially
the press; t0 CHAPTER VII, which discusses impor-
tant men in the scientific world; and to CHAPTER
VIII, which contai~ls biographies of key military
figures. If the nation produces relatively few lead-
ers because of small populations, form of govern-
ment or some other reason, the biographical texts
should be included in SECTION 53, and not sub-
mitted as a separate section.

B. Biographies
Biographic sketches should be restricted to a
paragraph or two. Paragraph (textual) treatment
will allow more scope for succinct evaluation than
would be possible under the "Who's Who" type of
treatment. The sketch should be introduced with
a concise factual and/or evaluative statement of the
individual's political role. Following this, the
sketch should cover these items, normally in the
order listed: 1) evaluation of character, influence
and political potentialities, 2) personal data (date
and place of birth, education), 3) career (principal
positions held prior to present post, with dates) ,
4) characteristics of any significant publications,
5) languages, and 6) miscellaneous pertinent in-
formation which would help to reveal the character
and attitude of the subject. The sequence of treat-
ment may be varied in special cases where the
available data can be more appropriately handled
in another way.

OUTLINE GUIDE
The following outline guide indicates substance and general arrangement.
In preparation and typing of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instructions are
to be followed in detail.
It is essential that analysts and editors be thor-
oughly familiar with a.ll of the following explana-
tory material, even though they are concerned
with only a portion of the outline of the Chapter.
Analysts should keep in mind that the outline is
meant to serve as a guide and not as a hard and
fast statute of requirements for every study. It
should be used flexibly, adapted to suit the particu-
lar economic circumstances of each area, and the
analysis should elicit those economic features and
developments which are important to that area.
1) Purpose: The purpose Of CHAPTER VI is to
provide a concise but complete survey of the eco-
nomic structure, potential, and importance of the
area. The various sections of the Chapter will
provide, in the aggregate, an integrated view of
the economy, the pattern and direction of its de-
velopment and the capacity of the economy to ad-
just itself to change.
2) Treatment: SECTION 60, which is designed to
give an over-all evaluation of the economy, is to
be treated in the special manner described under
SECTION 60 below. The other sections deal with
basic materials, energy resources, industries, trade
and finance, and such related subjects as are
essential to an evaluation of the economy of the
area and of the manner in which it functions.
Each section should include all the factual data
needed to support the analysis. Such data should
be set forth, so far as possible, in statistical tables,
on charts and maps, and in tabulations. Text
should be used for the purpose of singling out the
more significant aspects of the statistical and
graphic material and of assembling data that do
not readily lend themselves to tabular and graphic
presentation, or where scantiness of data would
make tabular treatment more bulky.
The general ar "A" portions of each section
should indicate the significant aspects of the sub-
ject under discussion and consider them as they
would affect the nation's strength as an enemy,
neutral, or ally. Special emphasis should be given
to such problems as self-sufficiency, capacity to
expand production and supplies, and direction and
rate of economic development.
3) Tabular presentation: It is intended in the
near future to provide specific table forms for cer-
tain. items and countries in order to insure the
required detail in important areas and uniformity
of treatment among countries.
It is especially important that full footnotes be
carried in file copies of the final draft, indicating
source of data plus any other notes necessary for
full understanding of any qualifications of the
data. This is important for the implementation
of the maintenance program and for further re-
search. For the copies to be submitted to CIA only
the principal references and explanatory notes
should be carried.
4) Visual presentation: Maps, charts, graphs,
and photographs should be provided wherever they
will serve in lieu of text, or to summarize or clarify
textual and statistical matter. Appropriate ref-
erence regarding such visual aids should always
appear in the text.
5) Use pattern: Major uses of items should be
shown quantitatively. This information should
be given for all consumption including those items
that are imported. In the case of items that are
used for one purpose which is self evident, the
requirement for this information does not of course
apply.
6) Units of measure and value: See NIS Edito-
rial Instructions (E, 5, Statistical data) far de-
tailed rules.
7) Years to be reported: Annual statistical data
(by calendar, crop; or fiscal years) will be reported
in accordance with the practice in the area. For
the most recent data, however, if not annual, re-
porting should be in the largest available fraction
of a year. As a general rule, figures for several
prewar years or an average of prewar years will
suffice to reflect the prewar situation for com-
parative purposes. If data are taken from two
or mare sources, care must be exercised to assure
comparability; if data are not comparable, appro-
priate footnotes explaining the noncomparability
will be included.

Section 6~~. Introduction
The purpose of this Section is twofold. Firstly,
it is designed to give-an integral view of the struc-
ture of the economy, the pattern and direction of
its development, and the capacity of the economy
to adjust itself to external or internal political or
economic changes. Secondly, it is to serve as a
frame of reference for proper evaluation of the
material, both factual and interpretive, presented
in the subsequent sections of the chapter.
Detailed accounts of the component parts of the
economy are to be presented in the respective
sections of this and other chapters and supple-
ments. Here, the task is to define the significant
aspects of each sector of the economy, to assess the
part it plays in the total economic structure of
the area, and to examine the factors which condi-
tion the scope and direction of the economic pr~ac-
ess. It should present the over-all production or
other figures needed to indicate the position of
any vital industries (such as steel) , both in t:he
structure of the economy of the area and in rela-
tion to world production.
A. Economic structure
This Subsection should be given over to a state-
ment in broad terms of the main structural fea-
tures of the economy. It should examine the posi-
tion and importance of the various sectors of eco-
nomic activity both in terms of their contribution
to national income and in relation to the cot~n-
try's resources and to their potential devel~~p-
ment.
It should also discuss types and rate of domes-
tic capital accumulation, recent pattern of utili-
zation, and factors stimulating or limiting capital
formation such as private or government inve:st-
ment', policies, domestic and foreign markets, for-
eign 'investments, etc. The discussion should,
moreover, analyze the nature of the economic ~de-
velopment in terms of changes in the composition
of the grass national product.
B. Economic dynamics
This Subsection should be devoted to a defini-
tion and analysis of the forces which at pres~:nt
determine the orientation of the economy. 7'he
discussion should examine the technological ad-
vance of economic processes as it affects the var-
ious sectors of the economy. It should ascertain
the competitive strength of the economy in terms
of productivity of labor, degree of mechanization,
etc., and appraise the ability of -the economy to
make appropriate adjustments to change, includ-
ing changing patterns of world trade. It should
also examine the role of the state in controlling
and influencing economic organization, activity,
and development and should evaluate the sig-
nificance of entrepreneural activities of the state.
C. Economic planning
Describe briefly the orientation of current na-
tional policy and indicate the areas of economic
activity to which it applies, the scope and orienta-
tion of long-range economic planning, and exam-
ine critically the degree of disparity between plans
and economic capabilities of the area. Indicate
how the government proposed to finance the reali-
zation of its long-range economic plans, and ex-
amine the extent to which such plans are being
realized. Discuss the nature and amount of as-
sistance, if any, from abroad (e.g., ECA, Eximbank,
Morrison Knudson, etc.) in furthering plans.
D. Strategic aspects of the ecanoxz-y
In this Subsection discussion should cover the
problem of the strategic supply position and eco-
nomic war potential. Here must be examined the
extent to which the country is or can readily be-
come self-sufficient in its major requirements and
what conditions must be fulfilled in order to in-
crease the degree of self-sufficiency of the area.
The problems of self-sufficiency and economic ca-
pacity for war should be considered not only with
respect to available natural resources but also. in
relation to existing man-power and its technical
capabilities, and in relation. to available installa-
tions affecting production. With respect to man-
power, consideration should be given to conclusions
reached in CHAPTER IV on problems of mobility, ex-
isting skills, adaptability of labor to new productive
processes, feasibility of increasing the labor
force through mobilization of over-age and
under-age laborers and women. With respect
to the existing productive plant, attention
should be given to the degree of utilization of
existing facilities. The analysis should. indi-
cate the causes of significant deficiencies or sur-
pluses. It should also indicate the degree to which
the economy is vulnerable to military attack, in
terms of dependence on a particular sector of the
economy or a particular group of installations. In
this connection it would be appropriate to con-
sider conclusions reached in CHATTER III with re-
spect to the transportation system and the manner
in which it affects the economic war potential of
the area.

OUTLINE GUIDE
The following outline guide indicates substance and general arrangement.
In preparation and typing of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instructions are
to be followed in detail.
The following is intended to serve as a general
instruction for the production of CHAPTER VII.
Relevant features contained herein, modified to
conform with the area being covered, shall be in-
cluded with the finished CHAPTER VII to serve as a
guide for the reader.
CHAPTER VII (Scientific) is devoted to the rela-
tively permanent and fundamental aspects of
scientific research and development in the subject
area. Material contained in the chapter should be
adequate to provide key scientific intelligence an-
alysts with a basis for preparing estimates for such
bodies as the National Security Council, the Re-
search and Development Board, the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, and the National Security Resources Board,
and for departmental planning components.
Since ~ science enters strongly into present-day
military planning connected with the national
security, CHAPTER VII places emphasis on the mili-
tary aspect of scientific research and development.
It is recognized, however, that much of the advance
in military technology generates from non-military
laboratories and that the entire scientific base of a
country contributes to a certain extent to the mili-
tary potential of the country. CHAPTER VII there-
fore should also cover subjects which have no
direct military application but which are of sig-
nificance.
The particular area covered by CHAPTER VII, of
course, influences the volume and scope of the tex-
tual presentation. For example, treatment con-
cerning the U.S.S.R. is only complete when full
coverage is provided for salient contributions of
U.S.S.R. satellite nations.
A clearer understanding of the purpose of CHAP-
TER VII is provided by consideration of its relation-
ship with certain other chapters of the over-all NIS
presentation. Generally speaking, CHAPTER VII
covers scientific research and development through
the prototype stage of materiel, whereas CHAPTER
VI (EcorroMlc) deals with the manufacture of ma-
teriel and CHAPTER VIII (ARMED FORCES) with the
quality, quantity, and characteristics thereof.
CHAPTER IV (SOCIOLOGICAL) dea1S with the edUCa-
tional system as a whole and with the educational
level of the population whereas CHAPTER VII deals
with educational institutions and learned societies
which are engaging in scientific research. Since it
is recognized that essentially all aspects of atomic
energy and biological warfare, including the manu-
facture and capabilities thereof, fall within the field
of scientific intelligence, all such aspects should be
respectively treated in SECTIONS 73 (ATOMIC EN-
ERGY) and 74 (BIOLOGICAL V~~ARFARE) and n0 aspect
is treated in CHAPTER VI or CHAPTER VIII. Manu-
facture of chemical warfare material is, however,
treated in CHAPTER VI and the quality, quantity,
and characteristics of such materiel in CHAPTER
VIII.
Because the over-all field of scientific research
and development is not static, the line of demarca-
tion between basic and current scientific intelli-
gence is not always clear cut. This line may be
particularly hazy in the subjects of research and
development programs as such programs, if han-
dled with normal efficiency and force, are likely,
in their progress, to generate from day to day new
facts of interest. It is the intent that CHAPTER VII
provide comprehensive coverage of significant re-
search and development programs. However, that
coverage should be limited to the origin, objectives,
history, general progress and an indication of basic
trends (avoid estimates and opinions which should
be reserved for other types of intelligence produc-
tion) of the programs as of the time of writing.
Also, it must be recognized that the inclusion of a
mass of ephemeral, as opposed to fundamental,
details may require too frequent revision of the
chapter and may tend to confuse or even mislead
the. reader. In view of the foregoing, good judg-
ment must be exercised to determine which details
are to be included and which are to be excluded.
As a matter of fact, however, the very nature of
scientific research and development is such as al-
most uniformly to require protection of them by
the most nearly impervious counter-intelligence
screen that the country in which they are being
conducted is able to erect. Hence, the amount of
detail concerning them is more likely to be little
than great. Therefore, in the preparation of the
text frequent acute problems of selectivity are not
anticipated and, in any event, it is desired to err on
the side of including too many details rather than
too few.

OUTLINE GUIDE
The outline presented for NIS CHAPTER IX is de-
signed to provide a basis for the appraisal of the
mapping program and all types of maps (including
embossed maps), charts, and molded r~:lief
models that are customarily available for any spe-
cific country. Many of the countries included in the
NIS schedule, however, have no adequate mapping
programs or are not satisfactorily covered by rr~aps
of all types. For this reason, it is desirable i;hat
the outline be kept flexible enough to be adapted
to any unusual situation that authors of CxAI'TER
IX may encounter. Every heading in the outline,
however, must be considered by the authors and
be retained without revision unless changes are
first approved by the Chapter Coordinator. 'The
two examples given below illustrate the typf~ of
changes in the outline that are legitimate: 1) In
a few areas (such as Iceland), SECTION 91, D, :3, a,
International Boundary Maps, is not applicable.
In such a case, the situation should be noted in
Section 91, D, 1, General; the international boLind-
ary heading would then be omitted and 91, D, 3, b
would automatically become 91, D, 3, a. 2) For
many areas, no embossed maps are available. If
this is the case, 91, B, 2 becomes topographic maps,
and subheadings a and b are omitted. 3) The
heading, Obsolete Maps, which does not occur in
the outline, may be inserted under any topic if the
contributing agency considers it necessary to warn
users against specific widely used or apparently au-
thoritative maps.
Maps prepared for other NIS Chapters are to be
included in the recommendations and appraisals
lri CHAPTER IX, SECTIONS 91 and 92, even though the
chapters for which the maps were prepared have
not yet been published. Historical maps are not
to be recommended or evaluated in CHAPTER IX un-
less they can be justified as contributing in some
important manner to an understanding of the cur-
rent situation in the country under consideration.
For example, a map of 1850 international bound-
aries should be discussed only if current territorial
claims are based on 1850 boundaries.
Approved BGN spellings will be used for all place
names in CxAPTER IX, when published, unless the
names appear in the titles of maps or books cited.
The preface of CHAPTER IX is a short "Guide to
Users", which will be prepared by th.e Chapter Co-
ordinator. In the Guide, the Coordinator will
note
The structure of CHAPTER IX-its division int~~:
a) a general analysis of the mapping situation of
a given country, b) recommendations of the best
maps available for specific uses, and c) apprais~~ls
of all maps recommended.
That only the best maps for various purposes have
been included.
That the omission of a topic usually covered by
maps indicates that maps on this topic are either
unsatisfactory or not available.
That maps prepared for other Chapters of NIS
will not be considered in SECTION 91 unless they are
also appraised in SECTION 92.
The research cut-off date for each of the contribu-
tions t0 CHAPTER IX.
Other information needed for an understanding
Of CHAPTER IX for the specific country under con-
sideration but not generally applicable to other
countries.
Section 9 0. Introduction
A. General map, chart, and aerial photo cov-
erage
The five subsections listed below are discu~;sed
under this heading. In the first, give briefly the
history and current status of official mapping,
within the country and note the contribution; of
foreign countries to the mapping program. In
Subsections 2 through 5, the basic geodE~tic,
hydrographic, oceanographic, and aerial photo
data fox mapping are to be described. Since
these topics are not covered elsewhere in CHAPTER
IX, it may be necessary to consider some of them
in greater detail than other topics in SECTION 90.
SECTION 90, A, 2, Geodetic Surveys, in particular,
is basic for estimating the reliability of a large
number of the maps mentioned 111 CHAPTER IX.

CONFIDENTIAL CHAPTER I X JUNE 1951
Section 92. Appraisal of Selected Maps, Charts, and Plans
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF CITA-
TIONS AND APPRAISALS IN SUBSECTIONS
B, C, D, AND E
Map groups are to be arranged in the order i:zdi-
cated in SECTION 92 of the outline. All map cita-
tions and appraisals are to be written according to a
standard pattern as indicated below:
Title of map underlined, with English translation
in parenthesis without underlining if title is in a
foreign language; scale; authority; date; language
(if not in English) ; coordinates (and grid) ; call
number or distribution number. Security classifi-
cation.
Appraisal-State the main use or uses of the Inap
(if appropriate) and evaluate the data on the basis
of accuracy. Comment on the following aspects
of the map only if they represent unusual features
or points of great weakness, or strength; 1) areal
coverage, 2) base data, 3) source material, and 4)
cartographic presentation. Other features of the
map may also be discussed if they are of outstf~nd-
ing significance.
If a map citation does not fit the standard cita-
tion' pattern exactly, the contributor may consult
the coordinator as to the form to be used, or follow
the pattern set for a similar citation in a completed
NIS CHAPTER IX. The coordinator may also be
consulted concerning the content of an apprs~isal
while the manuscript is in preparation.
The citation and appraisal of an embossed snap
in SECTION 92 should follow immediately after dis-
cussion of the map from which it was made and
have the same item number followed by the cax-ital
letter A. The citation for the embossed map ~~an,
therefore, be abbreviated. It should include: Title
underlined; horizontal scale, vertical scale; call
number or equivalent. The fact that the map is
embossed should be noted immediately after the
map title unless this information forms part of the
title itself. The appraisal should not repeat in-
formation given in the original map appraisal.
Among the types of information that might bc~ in-
cluded are marginal information and additions to
or omissions from the original map.
Each molded relief model is given its own item
number, as in the case of maps. Citations sh~~uld
be identical to those for maps, except for the+ in-
clusion of a vertical scale immediately after the
horizontal scale. The appraisal should follow the
standard pattern but include also specific evalua-
tion of the model, as distinct from a map.

NOTE This classification of alongside berths is not
applicable to naval and tanker accommod~~-
tions.
D. Estimated military port capacity
A standard formula adopted for determination
of an estimated military port capacity has been
based on the following conditions or factors:
1) Capacity is from ship to shore and transfer of
cargo from the immediate working area.
2) Naval wharves and piers, bunkering facilities,
and petroleum piers generally are disregarded in
evaluation of available berthing facilities for g~~n-
eral cargo.
3) Unloading of ships is by ship's gear only.
4) Evaluation of alongside vessel accommoda-
tion is based on the following vessel types:
a. Liberty-Victory-C2 460' minimum length
(Class "B" berth) 24'-28' draft
b. C1-M-AV1 350' minimum lengt;z
(Class "C" berth) 18'-21' draft
c. Lighters 6' minimum draf~,
5) Tonnage unloaded by vessels alongside
(L/tons per 20 hour day)
a. Liberty-Victory-C2 600 tons
b. C1-M-AVl 400 tons
6) Vessels worked in the stream-free-swinging
anchorage berth with minimum diameter of 1,500'
and 30' minimum depth (Class II anchorage
berth). Vessel 'discharge calculated on Liberty-
Victory-C2 type only (L/tons per 20 hour day) 500.
(Where lighterage docking space is the limiting
factor, the figure of 150 tons per day per 100 linear
feet of dock is used.)
7) Adequate labor and dock-working equipment
assumed.
8) Adequate supply of lighters assumed.
9) Capacity estimates include all allowances and
adjustments necessary to compensate for the pres-
ence of adverse factors such as deteriorated facili-
ties, poor layout of working space and other pecu-
liarities which might tend to alter or affect the
operation of the port at the estimated capacity.

urban areas, size, importance, etc., and their ar-
rangement. (NIS urban areas map-locates all
urban areas or towns selected for study in SUPPLE-
MENT IV. Each urban area is given an identifying
map index number to assist in ready identification,
where these areas are located in a dense pattern,
map insets at a larger scale will be added. This
map will include the main drainage pattern, navi-
gable waterways, main railroad, and highway
networks, important terrain features, and symbols
depicting town functions. Depending upon extent
of an NIS Area, the selected scale will be from
1:500,000 to 1:5,000,000; insets at practical de-
sirable scales.)
Section 2. Principal Urban Areas
Army will submit lists of key strategic urban
areas and other selected urban areas to the NIS
Committee for transmission to IAC agencies for
comment and concurrence. Army will make the
final selection. Discuss or introduce the arrange-
ment of the principal urban areas selected for CxAP-
TER II, Subsection 25, B, 1, with reasons for the
order followed, their relative importance to the
areas of the NIS as a whole, to the sub-areas as
determined by the discussion in CHAPTER II, Sub-
section 25, A, and, to each other. (Paragraph head-
ings for each urban area will be alphabetical and
each area will be discussed in sequence according
to the importance of the area, i.e., A. the principal
urban area, B. the second most important, etc. A

OUTLINE GUIDE
The fallowing outline guide indicates substance and general arrange-
ment. In preparation and typ~in~ of manuscript, D/B Editorial Instruc-
tions are to be followed in detail.
The Special NIS on Marine Climate and Ocean-
ography divides the world sea areas into ocean
basins. These ocean basins are further subdivided
into Parts, each of which is comparable to a chap-
ter in the other NIS. Each Part will consist of
three sections; however, the production unit will
be a Part.
Ocean Basins are designated as follows
NIS 104
Atlantic Basin
12 Parts
NIS 105
Pacific Basin
12 Parts
NIS 106
Indian Basin
4 Parts
NIS 107
Arctic Basin

Section _t . Introduction
Brief synopsis and overview treatment of only
the mast significant aspects of location, size, sh,~pe,
general climatic and oceanographic conditions-, as
they affect the Area's strategic potential, both. of-
fensive and defensive. The treatment should not
be confined to boundaries of the NIS Area when
proper appreciation requires overlapping into an
adjacent area.

graphic means by months the distribution of wind
force and direction.
C. Surface air temperature
Discuss and show by graphic means by mor.iths
the mean, mean maximum, mean minimum, al~so-
lute maximum, and absolute minimum tempera-
tures and/or percentile cut-off points of the tem-
perature distribution (normally 5 percentile) for

or show by graphic means by months the frequency
and distribution of temperatures below free~;ing
and the occurrence of snow.
D. Precipitation
Discuss and show by graphic means by mor.~ths
the distribution, amount, and frequency of ~}re-
cipitation of all types.
E. Cloudiness
Discuss and show by graphic means the distribu-
tion and frequency by months of low cloud amount
(when data are available) and total cloud amount.
Discuss the dominant types and their causes.
(When appropriate, cloudiness may be treated in
combination with precipitation in Subsection D,
above, under the revised heading, Precipitation ~~.nd
cloudiness. )
F. Visibility and fog
Discuss and show by graphic means by months
the distribution and frequency of reduced visibility.
Discuss and/or show by graphic means the distri-
bution and frequency of fog.
G. Special weather phenomena
Discuss and/or show by graphic-means the occur-
rence of tropical and extratropical cyclones,
squalls, waterspouts, thunderstorms, and any other
phenomena of special importance or peculiar to the
given NIS Area.
H. Weather and military operations
Discuss the effects of weather and climate of the
Area on air and surface military operations.
