BULLETIN BOARD
INTELLIGENCE To accommodate the heavy demand for the Intelligence
ORIENTATION Orientation Course, the schedule has been expanded to
COURSE provide ten runnings between mid-September 1966 and
mid-July 1967. The schedule for the remainder of 1966
for Introduction to Intelligence and Introduction to
Communism, the companion courses which make up this
program, is given below.
The Office of Personnel automatically sends a training
request for these courses to the Registrar, OTR, on
each new employee as a part of the EOD process; reg-
istration is then negotiated with the employee's Training
Officer. Older employees who have not had both courses
should also .be scheduled by their Training Officer for
either or both, as appropriate.

MID CAREER
EXECUTIVE
DEVELOPMENT
COURSE
The dates for the next running of the Midcareer Executive
Development Course have been set for 30 January - 10
March 1967. It is to be noted that the Managerial Grid
is presented during the first week of this course. Personnel
being considered for the Midcareer course should therefore
not be scheduled separately for the Managerial Grid.
MANAGEMENT, Supervision, the Support School's supervisory course for
SUPERVISION employees in grades GS-5 through GS-10, is being offered
COURSES 28 November - 2 December. Management, the parallel
course for officers in grades GS- I1 through GS- 14, is
scheduled for 12 - 16 December. Both courses will be
held in Room 612, Magazine Building.
READING Agency personnel are reminded that OTR has two Craig
IMPROVEMENT Readers in the Language Laboratory, Room 1D1605
Headquarters. These machines can be of considerable
assistance in improving reading ability. They are simple
to operate, and the instructions with each machine should
enable the employee to improve both speed and comprehension
in reading. For the average individual, each of the 20
lessons presented through this electronic device requires
just under an hour. However, since the entire course is
it form of programed instruction, the user may progress at
his own rate. The machines may be used any time the
laboratory is open.
The Reading Improvement Program of the Graduate School,
U. S. Department of Agriculture, incorporates the latest
and most advanced techniques for developing the maximum
potential of each learner. Instruction is oriented toward
on-the-job reading of Federal employees. Open to all
Federal employees GS-5 through GS-18, students may
enroll in any one of the three sections. All sections meet
for an hour and a half on Tuesdays and Thursdays: Section
A, 1 - 2: 30 p. m. ; Section B, 2:30 - 4 p. m.; or Section C,
4 - 5:30 p.m. The 1967 dates of this program are from
10 January through 2 March and again from 14 March
through 4 May.

SEMINAR An experimental course, "Seminars in Communication
ON and Training, " was conducted in early July by the OTR
INSTRUCTIONAL Operations School. Participants were Agency personnel
TECHNIQUES with field operational experience who were already or
about to be assigned as OTR instructors; their Agency
service averaged 13. 7 years. Units of study included
Effective Speaking, Discussion Techniques, and Seminars.
Utilizing tape recordings and films as well as student
critiques, qualitative differences and shortcomings in
platform presence and speech skills were underlined, as
was the ease with which improvement can be made.
Seminars, conferences, and staff meetings enabled
participants to share experiences and review their own
techniques for handling such groups, and revealed
problem areas and questions deserving further study.
The information gathered through this experimental
course is still being evaluated, but the majority of
participants indicated spontaneously that they had
benefited both personally and professionally from the
course.

ready in mid-October. When the detailed regulations
are issued, they will be retroactive to 21 July 1966,

who have incurred moving expenses as a result of official
travel since that date should keep exact records, including
receipts or other proof of expenses and payments, in order
to obtain reimbursement.

MOBILE Increasingly popular in training centers is the self-contained
P ROJECTION mobile projection console. The unit has a 16mm motion
CONSOLE picture projector plus a built-in daylight-type screen for
use in lighted rooms. It is useful for seminars and other
small groups as an instructional tool, and also for single
students that were absent during the regular class. Simple
to operate, the projector requires only a single on-off switch
for normal use. It can handle up to a full hour of film, or,
through a continuous loop, it can show up to 33 minutes of
film over and over again without stopping. It can also be
stopped during explanations or discussions of details as the
film unfolds. This modern tool is available now in OTR and
a phone call to the Audio Aids Section, will
bring the unit to your office or classroom for a demonstration
of its utility.

meets on mornings twice a week over a period of four
weeks, for a total of 28 hours. The formal courses re-
quire TOP SECRET clearance.
The basic course reviews the principles of grammar
and rhetoric, with emphasis on elements of sentence and
paragraph structure. Most of the course time is spent in
writing and in the analysis and critique of the student's
papers. Specific topics covered in a recent course includ-
ed punctuation, words and wordiness, sentence faults, ef-
fective sentences, vocabulary, unity of paragraphs, and
application of logic. Homework consists of reviewing as-
signments from the textbook and revising papers which
have been corrected and returned.

The intermediate course concentrates on the general
principles of good intelligence writing. It stresses clarity
and accuracy of expression and logical structure in written
compositions. For a greater part of the course the student
practices composition and the instructor analyzes the stu-
dent's work. Examples of topics covered are uses of logic,
outlining, unity and topic sentences, coherence, relevance,
consistency of tone and viewpoint, vocabulary and etymol-
ogy, the importance of listening. Approximately an hour
of each class is devoted to discussion of the previous day's
assignment.
The advanced course is specialized, each running de-
signed to meet the needs of a particular component of the
Agency in its intelligence reporting and report writing.
Formats, styles, rules, and editorial practices of the par-
ticular component are emphasized. A major part of the
time is spent in student writing and in the instructor's
analysis and critique of individual writing problems.
The correspondence course, tailored to the individual's
requirements as well as to his level of proficiency, consists
of nine assignments, with a maximum of two weeks allowed
for the completion of each. Each assignment after the first
requires revision of the previous theme, writing a new one,
an outline of the next theme to be submitted, and completion
of a sentence exercise. Themes are returned with correc-
tions, criticism, and suggestions.
The basic and intermediate Writing Workshops are
offered at periodic intervals, notice being given by cus-
tomary announcement and the calendar in the OTR Bulletin.
The advanced Workshop is given on request. One may
enroll in the Correspondence Course at any time simply
by submitting a form 73, "Request for Internal Training."

INTELLIGENCE REVIEW COURSE
"What manpower or budgetary changes are likely to occur within the
Agency during the next five -- or even 10 -- years which may affect per-
sonnel of all components?
"What type of intelligence support does the President and his chief
policy advisers in the Cabinet currently require for foreign policy and
national security decision-making?
"What developments are taking place in the Agency's relations with
the Department of State, the Pentagon, and other departments and agencies
--either in the Washington headquarters area or in the field?
"What are some of the major problems facing the Agency in its
overseas operations, in its production of finished intelligence, and in
its support both of headquarters and field activities?
"What is your understanding of developments taking place in other
directorates of the Agency, or even other parts of your own component?"
Answers to these questions and information on many additional
topics will be presented in OTR's next Intelligence Review course which
begins on 28 November 1966 and continues full-time through 9 December,
in Room 501 at 1000 Glebe.
The course is designed specifically to meet the intelligence infor-
mation needs of mid- and senior-grade professionals in all parts of the
Agency who have been on duty for at least five years. Its content is
pointed toward the general problem facing most Agency personnel; that
is, that they are so busy with their own specific work that they do not
have time -- nor possibly the opportunity -- to keep abreast of continual
changes taking place within the Agency and the intelligence community.
Guests from the Office of the Director and from the top ranks of each
of the major components explain the significant developments and
problems facing their components. In addition, senior officials from
other departments and agencies of the government explain national
security and foreign policy issues and their requirements for intelligence
support from CIA and from other members of the United States Intelligence
Board.

In addition to hearing guest speakers, and to take advantage of the
presence of co-professionals in the course, the participants meet in
seminars to discuss mutual concerns in the overall intelligence context.
Experience has shown that these seminars are an excellent means for
obtaining a broader understanding of developments taking place within
CIA and an appreciation of future plans envisaged by its leaders.

THE AGENCY'S
FOREIGN LANGUAGE POLICY
A Progress Report
The CIA Foreign Language Development Program approved on 1 February
1966 sets forth a new policy to develop the foreign language capabilities
of Agency employees. The program establishes the following goals:
1. By 31 December 1970 professional employees serving in
"foreign service" career fields will be expected to possess
a fully useful speaking proficiency in at least one foreign
language.
2. After 31 December 1970 personnel assigned to positions
for which specific language requirements have been
established will be expected to possess the requisite
language competence.
3. Effective immediately, professional employees will be
expected to possess at the time they arrive overseas, or
to acquire in the first six months after they arrive, at
least a speaking proficiency at a "courtesy" level.
Nonprofessional employees and wives of employees serving
abroad will be encouraged also to acquire "courtesy" levels
of proficiency.
This new foreign language policy calls for a determination of the require-
ments of the Agency for specific language skills, testing of the language
proficiencies of employees to determine the Agency's current inventory
of skills, and implementation of a program designed to meet the goals
set forth in the program, corelating the results of the requirements
survey and the testing while estimating language-training requirements.
Survey of Agency Language Requirements
During the past two months all components of the Agency have
surveyed their language requirements. They have established required
levels of proficiency in 56 different languages forl This

means that a definite language requirement has been made requisite
to assignment to a particular position; or, when a number of identical
or similar positions exist at a post, a ratio has been fixed setting the
number of these positions which must be filled by linguistically qualified
personnel; for example, a requirement for Intermediate French for
any three of five officer positions at a particular base.
These formulations represent raw materials for the establishment
of standards for fulfilling the foreign language policy. The statements
designating degrees of foreign language competency in relation to
positions, after being refined over the next few years, will become part
of the qualifications which must be met when consideration is given to
staffing these positions effective 31 December 1970.
Testing
Since February, when the new language policy was enunciated, the
Language Training School has been conducting an intensive drive to test
the language proficiency of Agency employees. The objective is to test
all individuals who have claimed oral proficiency in any foreign language
prior to 31 December 1966. Thus far, the response to this drive has been
encouraging: I individuals who originally claimed
proficiency have either disclaimed or been tested. If the same rate is
maintained, the objective will be met.
It is very important that all individuals who have not yet been tested
take the initiative through their Training Officers to see to it that they
are scheduled as soon as possible so that the testing schedule may be
paced through the remainder of the year. An accurate inventory of the
Agency's linguistic assets is, of course, essential for the success of
the language program.
Language Training
The Office of Training has moved in two directions to facilitate the
implementation of the Foreign Language Development Program. Language
Training has been made a part of the training cycle for all Career Trainees
who are destined for "foreign service" types of assignments. The general
requirement is that such Career Trainees must possess an elementary
speaking proficiency in one foreign language before leaving the Career
Trainee rolls for an assignment to a component, and an intermediate
level of proficiency before the end of three years of service. Those going
to the Clandestine Services must have an intermediate level of proficiency
or have had six months of training in a "hard" language -- such as Arabic
or Chinese -- before being permanently assigned.

OTR has also inaugurated a program to facilitate the achievement
of the requirement for courtesy-level language proficiency. A series of
classes has been arranged to provide instruction outside normal duty
hours, either in the morning or in the evening and alternatively at Langley
Headquarters or in the Roaslyn areas. It is anticipated that a new series,
each running 20 weeks, will begin every Fall and Spring. At present,
attendance is restricted to employees whose assignment to an overseas
post has already been determined or is reasonably certain. Wives of
employees preparing for overseas service may attend on a space-
available basis.
Long-Range Policy
It is evident from the provisions of the Agency's foreign language policy
that it is a long-range one which will enhance the opportunities of the
linguistically qualified individual. OTR is currently involved in the early,
or information-gathering and evaluating, stages. The data now being
evaluated on the Agency's needs will for the first time provide specific
goals which can act as benchmarks against which to measure progress
toward a higher level of language qualification on the part of Agency officers.

A MESSAGE from
VICE PRESIDENT HUMPHREY
(Editor's Note: Vice President Hubert Humphrey
was scheduled to make a presentation during
the Agency's Sixth Annual Awards Ceremony
on 19 September in connection with its Nine-
teenth Anniversary. Unfortunately, higher
demands prevented his attendance. In his
letter to the Director expressing his disap-
pointment at not being able to address his
remarks to Agency employees personally he
offered them for publication in any manner
desired. Because of the emphasis the Vice
President gave to training, the OTR Bulletin
was selected as a vehicle for publicizing and
recording his message.)
I have heard and read the words of many CIA staff officers. I
welcome this opportunity to express to them, and to you all, my own
thanks for your distinguished professional competence, marked today
by presentation of certificates and public service awards.
President Johnson is a generous President. He has included his
Vice President among those who counsel him, and he has encouraged
departments and agencies to keep the Vice President informed. If
Hubert Humphrey is not a well informed Vice President, it is not your
fault. You are doing your job, and I want you to know that it is just as
important as you suspect it is!
Each morning your secret daily reports, including reports from all
the U. S. intelligence community, are studied by me as my first order
of business. I use your running account of world events as one of the
most important streams of information available to me. Throughout
the day and week your longer reports and studies are summarized and
brought to my attention. Many is the late evening and long week-end I
have spent over your versions of Thieu, Thanat, Kosygin, Lin Piao,
Mobuto, Suharto, Obote, and the Shah, only to mention a few. You are

teaching me much about the world and about yourselves. Let me say a
few words, therefore, about what I think you are, and what I hope you
will be.
You are sincerely desirous of serving your country. You are
quickly responsive to the will of the President and the National
Security Council. You selflessly perform the tasks America entrusts
to very few citizens. You are aware that sometimes these tasks will
be almost impossible; that is one reason you are keen to accomplish
them. When you fail, you know you will bear the negative consequences.
When you succeed, you hope no one will be aware of it. All these things
I have learned you already are. Now let me tell you what I hope, in
addition, you will be.
As our world gets smaller and more complex, you are going to
have to be better. I hope you are constantly examining your goals.
You are going to have to stay ahead of everything new in the world that
is significant: new groups, new organizations, new leaders, new
economies, new space, new science... new growings-together, and
new tearings-apart.
I hope you will remain the quietly disciplined professional corps
you are, but I hope even more you will experiment and learn. I hope
you will change jobs, move around, go to school, do everything necessary
to avoid the plateau of self-satisfaction, and the hardened crust of
bureaucratic inertia.
I hope you will recognize, too, that you must change as life changes.
I want you to be ahead of the challenges, not abreast of or behind them.
This means retooling-- reschooling-- renewing--for everybody--but
particularly for those who will provide the example, the leadership.
I hope you constantly will re-evaluate your profession at all levels.
That you will define and redefine the requirements to move up from
each level to the next level. That you will identify the significant tasks
of each job, and demand that promotion be based on creative growth,
and demonstrated accomplishment.
I hope you will continue to realize that your profession must be the
home of the non-organization man--the home of the iron-clad individualist
who is big enough to discipline himself--and great enough to give to
mankind and to his country all that he can become.
