DIARY NOTES
23 October 1964
1. On my way to the office this morning I noticed a rezoning sign con-
spicuously displayed on the property adjacent to our entrance on Route 123.
(I aske to find out exactly what this sign says and what it means.
Having learned later from the sign that there will be a hearing by the Board
of County Supervisors at the Fairfax County Courthouse on 4 November 1964
to consider rezoning of this property, I asked to draft a letter
to the Chairman of the Board objecting to this rezoning application more
strongly than we did in our letter to the Fairfax County Planning Commission.)
2. At the Executive Committee Meeting this morning:
a. Mr. Kirkpatrick reported to the Director that, according to a
paper he had received from me, we are saving $25, 000 a year by turning
off the lights in at night. He said that he thought something
should be done about the Headquarters building since at 10:15 p.m. last
night from the front of the building one could see 60 percent of the lights
on the seventh floor, 80 percent of the lights on the sixth, fifth, fourth,
and third floors, and 40 percent of those on the. second floor. (I want
to look into this and arrange a briefing for Kirk on just what we are
doing and should do with regard to this situation. Apparently he is still
not satisfied that the situation is in hand.)
b. I reported to the Director that the Department of State has de-
cided on, or is at least very interested in, the establishment of a poly-
graph program and that Bill Crockett, Dwight Porter, and Marv Gentile
would be coming out here next week for a briefing. The Director was
very interested in this and said that, based on a conversation which he
had with-the President yesterday, he felt certain we would hear a great
deal more about this. Apparently the Director explained our polygraph
program to the President- -how it works, how essential we consider it,
and also how no other Government agency has such a program. The
President apparently was appalled by this fact and thought that every
Government agency having access to classified information should have
such a program. The Director said that we will probably be called upon
to present briefings for not only the Department of State but also for the
Department of Defense and possibly the White House. To this end, he
wanted a first-class briefing prepared with the best briefers we can

marshal. He wants to preview the briefing himself and, in short, be
prepared to put on a first-class show at any time. (Later I met with
Bob Bannerman, Howard Osborn, John Tietjen, and Emmett Echols to
discuss the Director's request that we develop a first-class briefing on
our security screening processes with emphasis on the polygraph.
Howard will take the initiative in developing the presentation, and I
asked Bob to take a personal interest in the final development of the
complete, coordinated presentation.)
3. Mr. Kirkpatrick advised me that it was all right to send someone to
speak to the Military Intelligence Reserve Society in New York City, and I
referred the letter of 1 October to Matt Baird for direct reply and handling of
the details.
25X1 A9a 4. suggested that I invite Major General Dick Meyer,
Commanding General of the U. S. Army Strategic Communications Command,
over for lunch; I agreed. While trying to reach Major General Meyer, by
mistake I reached Lt. General Richard D. Meyer, Director of Logistics for
the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Both are classmates of mine. General Meyer said
that he wanted to come over and have a talk with me sometime soon. He is
working on some kind of a paper in the logistics field in which he thinks we
would have a real interest. I said that inasmuch as he, General H. K. (Johnny)
Johnson, and Lt. General Lawrence J. (Abe) Lincoln, all members of the Class
of '33, are running the logistics business for the Department of the Army and
the Department of Defense, I certainly would like to see them come up with
something which would give the Army a quick reaction capability, which is
apparently lacking based on our experience with the Special Forces. He said
that this was exactly what he wanted to talk about and that he would get in
touch with me as soon as he has something on paper. I said that I would
certainly welcome this. (Later in the day Alan Warfield reported that he
had lunch with Abe Lincoln, who is the Army Deputy Chief of Staff for Logistics,
and that he had provided Abe with a one-page summary of the logistics ar-
rangements which we have with the Army. It may be that through this series
of contacts (Alan got to know Abe very wel we may be able to be 25X1A6a
of real assistance to the Army in developing something which will be mutually
beneficial to both of us.)
5. Emmett Echols was in to discuss the following:
a. We reviewed John Clarke's memorandum of 25 September 1964
regarding long-range personnel programming. Emmett has started this
job, and I think that he has a fairly good outline of what he proposes to do.

I suggested that he reply to John's memorandum, attaching a copy of his
proposed program and urging John to offer further suggestions. Emmett
said, however, that the key to this whole problem lies in Agency Regula-
25X1 A tion-regarding manpower, which he has been trying to get pub-
lished for the past eighteen months. Closely related to this whole mat-
ter are two Agency Notices which we have been unable to get coordinated.
One is an amendment of Headquarters Regulatand the other 25X1A
is an amendment of Headquarters Regulation would like to 25X1 A
follow up on these right away and see what we can do to publish them
promptly or to decide on an alternate course of action.)
25X1A9a
b. We have now received six nominations for the Federal Woman's
Award. In the light of this number of nominations, I asked Emmett to
convene the Honor Awards Board and to come up with specific recom-
mendations which we can make to Mr. Kirkpatrick.
6. telephoned regarding the following:
25X1A
25X1A9a
b . also reported that a cable has been prepared and
is being submitted to Under Secretary of State Ball which would permit
the return of dependents He didn't know what prompted this
change of heart.
7. Bob Ayers, President of Government Services, Inc . , telephoned to
invite me to a meeting at 11:30 a.m. next Wednesday, 28 October, to re-
view the securities held by GSI. I accepted provided that this meeting does
not conflict with my luncheon with Bill Crockett.
8. Bob Fuchs was in to discuss several personnel cases with me in com-
pliance with DD/S Administrative Notice No. 64-6.
25X1A6a
a. In the case o we decided that Bob should write a 25X1A9a
memorandum for the i e but show d not take any further action at this 25X1A9a
time. Similar action should be taken in the case of
Neither of these two men should have access to cash, a . eas Watt s time.

b. In the case of who was returned from -
not too long ago, a num er o other matters have developed indi-
cating that his handling of his personal finances is delinquent and that
he might be immature in other respects. I asked Bob to place his name
before the Personnel Evaluation Board.
c. about whom there was some question in_
is apparen y oing a very good job now, and I agreed that a memoran-
dum in the file would be adequate in his case.
d. I authorized Bob to place who has had a great
many domestic problems and who had to be brought home from the
in the Industrial Contract Audit Division and to give him a
chance to rehabilitate himself. He, like the others about whom there
is some question, should not have access to cash.
I emphasized to Bob that he should watch all these people very carefully. If
they cannot have access to cash and if they cannot be sent overseas, then they
are millstones around our neck and hamper our flexibility and our opportunity
to develop all-around generalists in the Office of Finance. Bob was very much
aware of this and, I think, is working in the right direction.
