(Address by the Deputy Director of Central Intelligence Given to the
Personnel of the Office of Training at the Annual Christmas Meeting)
Several years ago Matt Baird invited me to your Christmas Party.
Apparently I seemed so pleased to have been invited that he has been
sort of compelled to invite me every year since. I can't help him out
of his predicament now by appearing displeased, and so give him an ex-
cuse not to continue the custom, because I'm not a good enough actor to
feign displeasure. By the same token, I must not talk too much and so
give him that excuse to scrub me. So, with good behavior, it looks
like you're stuck with me.
last year provided me an opportunity to talk to you about the
challenge each of you has in your duties with the Office of Training.
I suggested that you accept the missionary task of getting the word
to other Agency employees about training opportunities. I am happy
to note that you have made considerable progress in doing just this
during the past year.
Your Bulletin is getting a wide distribution. I understand that
even errors in the Bulletin have brought results. When a news story
on a German Area Course was tied pictorially to a selection of book
covers, all on Japan, there were chuckles in the EE Division of DD/P
over this "booboo". However, chuckles or not, there came an immediate
order from that same Division for those same Japanese materials.
It appears that your Bulletin is increasingly being read and relied
upon by Agency people.
One of the most rewarding results of your efforts is seen in the
language training program. The word has gotten out about the language
incentive program. I understand that over 450 employees are now en-
rolled in voluntary language programs. This number is above and be-
yond the approximate 850 enrolled in the regular language programs.
The figure is impressive. It still isn't large enough. One of the
jobs you have to do next year, in this program, is to provide the guid-
ance to assure that those persons taking language voluntarily are
studying the languages which will be in greatest demand by the Agency,
both now and in the long run. Guidance to these "volunteers" will have
to come from supervisors and from you here in the Office of Training.
This guidance will have to be based on a clear appreciation and knowl-
edge of long-range programs and trends. In short, we have the program
going. We are developing our pool of linguistic talent. Now,, we want

to orient it, as appropriate, to fulfill the defined requirements of
this Agency, both short and, long run. The management of the training
offered can spell success or failure in this effort.
Another aspect of the management of training is seen in the con-
siderable attention that you have given in the past year to establish-
ing prescribed training standards. for on--the-job courses. Learning
by doing is an effective means of acquiring a skill. It is important
that the on-the-job courses are given the benefit of the professional
guidance available in you people here.
I am also aware that you have done a good deal in adjusting and
improving established courses. Considerable work by instructors in
the various OTR schools has gone into developing new and altered courses
to meet the changing needs of the Agency. This is all to the good--
I could go on.
What of the future? Last year you came up with and implemented
a language incentive program. In previous years, you have under-
taken many other progressive steps. For example, you have estab-
lished a School of International Communism. You have effected an
extremely significant management training program. What is it going
to be this coming year? What identifiable steps are you going to
take next year to improve the training programs of the Agency? It
is easy to slip backward. It is easy to buckle under to the impact
of In-Baskets, and take satisfaction in meeting short-range require-
ments. It is easy to forget to keep your tools sharpened. But in
CIA, we cannot afford to stagnate.
I think this is particularly clear when we note the accomplish-
ments of the Soviets, much of which probably is directly attributable
to their training programs. Many skeptics who previously have pic-
tured the Communists as a bunch of backward imitators are changing
their views. On the industrial front, the Communists are making
rapid strides. They are facing many problems, of course, but they
have announced their intention of catching up with and passing the
United States industrially. Mili?tagrily, they are making every effort
to emerge stronger than the west. Their manpower and materiel re-
sources are being marshalled to these ends at the expense of higher
standards of living. This doesn't concern the Russian leaders. They
have established a goal and they are acting that the goal be met.
The thoroughness of Soviet education has become familiar by
now to every reader of the American newspaper. Whether the goal is
to produce scientists or spies, the Soviets are willing and able
to devote seemingly unl:i.mitod quantities of time and cash to the
purpose. Soviet successes are causing the American Government and
people to re-examine the quality of our schooling throughout the
country.

But Soviet successes provide a dismal note for a Christmas
gathering. We think of Christmas as a happy time--a time for our
children--a time where peace on earth is the principal theme. It
is rewarding to me, and I'm sure to all of us, to know that our
daily work is directed to assure the preservation of these things.
CIA is doing an increasingly important job, and doing it well.
Success has come from vigilance, insight and applied imagination.
The ambitious Communist, through his boastful threats, should merely
spark our conviction to stay ahead. Putting this in a training
context, I ask again, what new programs do you people here today
have in mind for unleashing the creative energies of our people in
CIA? You need make no apology for our present training program,
but we do need to think ahead and continue our steady progress.
Remember, the measure of CIA accomplishments is reflected in large
part in the quality of training we provide our people.
I extend to all of you a Merry Christmas.

CORPORATION EXECUTIVE CONFERENCE
The School of Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity and its affiliated Foreign Service Educational Foundation
present each year a series of meetings designed specifically to
meet the requirements of the executive with international interests-
to exchange mutual understanding between business executives, labor
leaders and Government official on matters affecting American busi-
ness operations abroad.
Attendance at such meetings is limited. However, a small quota has
been obtained which permits Agency personnel to attend these two-day
sessions on a non-participating basis, as guests of the President,
Foreign Service Educational Foundation.
The next conference is scheduled for 11-12 February 1958. The
topic will be Conte mporarwy Africa (South of the Sahara). Problems

The Supervisory Development Course is specifically designed for
experienced supervisors who require a good foundation in modern
management practice, recent appointees to supervisory positions,
candidates for supervisory positions and supervisors who have had
no "formal" training.
AMA MANAGEMENT COURSE
The AMA Management Course consists of four one-week units of ad-
vanced study in the principles, skills and tools of management.
The curriculum is a distillation of practical operating experience
which represents a fundamental body of management principles.
Each of the four units is taught on an average of twice a month
during 1958. The four units must be completed over a period of
twelve months. Unit I must be taken first, but the other units
do not necessarily have to be taken in sequence. The course may
be taken at the Sheraton-Astor Hotel in New York City, at the AMA
Academy at Saranac lake, New York, or during July and August on
the campus of Colgate University, Hamilton, New York. Tuition
for the course is $850.
The course is planned for the individual faced with broad and
growing responsibilities. He must have substantial business ex-
perience, regardless of background and formal education, which
is of sufficient maturity to enable him to contribute to the group
discussions; and his responsibility must be broad enough so that
he can put the concepts of the course to significant use.
SELECTION AND ORIENTATION OF SUPERVISORY PERSONNEL
The American Management Association will hold a seminar on Selection
and Orientation of Supervisory Personnel 16-17 January 1958 in the
