In connection with the visits now being made in the Agency by idessrs.
Perry and Hamilton Bureau of th? Hudget~ Mr. Macy emphasized that he did not want
to knoeP anything about our secret intelligence, He stated that he personally did
not want, nor did he want his people to be i.n possession of, information which
would in ar~r way point the finger at them in case of a leak. He does feels how-
ever, that they should take a good look at our administrative machinery. I agreed
with ham and told him that they were welcoeae to see a~rthing that they wanted to
iri this connection. (I am sure that sooner or later we are going to have to clean
our administrative house and. that ij' we don't someone else will do it for us,)
We discussed the personnel restriction which Mr. Taber has imposed upon
the Agency, fir. Macy indicated that fir. Dodge did not want the Bureau of the
Budget to be brought into this any amore than was absolutely essential. He felt
that this Was something which should be handled between the Agency and the Coannit-
tee. (Off the records Mr. Macy indicated that hs thought we might be able to per-
suade Mr. Taber that our strength should be what vre have on boards plus enough ad-
ditional spaces to take care of our "iu process" personnel.) I told him that we
were getting in our office estimates for F'iseal Year 1955 very shortly and T
thought that before going to all the work of preparing detailed estimates he could
give me scene guidance as to what the pitch was going to be in 1955. He said that
he would be glad to do so, I think that this will be vary helpful and might save
us a lot of work.
Another ixrterest which the Bureau of the Budg?t has at the moment is the
development of construction standards i.ri foreign countries to make sure that one
Government agency is not out of linty with another and that expenditures are rea-
sonable and facilities adequate for the countries under consideration, I got a.
definite impression that it made little difference to the ~m3.ni.stratian whether
or not construction was undertaken Ri.th ccyunterpart funds.
The Bureau is also investigating foreign currency control. I told Mr,
Macy that I doubted very much that xe could make arm contribution on this score
and that he might want to talk to us later about our feign currency transactions.
I added that this might be a ticklish subject but that we wau3.d do the best we
could for him.
