t,al Intelligence Agency
Subject: State Department Draft Pursuant to Paragraph 6.2
of PSB D-24,
I enclose copies of State Department suggestions
supplied by Francis Stevens regarding stand-by instructions
for the contingency of Stalin's death. Please send me the
comments of your agency as soon as convenient.
If it develops that major differences of opinion
exist, I will be glad to,arrange a meeting for fuller
discussion. In such case, it might be better to meet and
talk before agency or department positions are further
consolidated.
I will also be glad, of course, to circulate any
alternative draft you may wish to have considered,
