The following points were discussed.
s. The time lag inherent in the forwarding r,4y pouch
of routine intelligence reports could be factorially
reduced if automation were introduced into the re-
porting program, at as early stage and continued
throughout the forwarding aye tea.
to. Automation system adaptable to the intelligence
reporting process are currently available. The prod--
tan of introducing the" automation systems into the
various established departmental field "parting
activities is not so such a technical problem as an
administrative one. It is difficult to persuade
bureaucratic institutions to change established a i thoa.*.
a. CIA* td/p, has started to Introduce, automation
into routine reporting on a small scale. The results
of the ssperiaeeat are promising and nay lead to ea-
passion of the arcs of tape punching equipment for
the initial field typing of reports. Also, the CIA
Office of Communications is experimenting with a
h speed radio circuit to Washington.
This circuit will be able to pass the present total
cable and pouch reports to Washington in about
one one (1) hour.
d. The iervices have comeesereisl contracts for
studies on automation of inforeatiou handling. The
Air force, in particular, 1n interested in the report-
ing problem.

contain a high percentage of maps, photos and

The installation of an Ocenter in a foreign
area would, however, be just a beginning. to order to
capitalize on the efficiency of this equlpasnt out-
stations would have to a tied in with the II center
by rapid means - radio or wireline coeeunicationb with
on-line enciphering etbods. irnrce the awe of the
has been suggested for the rapid perm of Information,
each outstation would have to streamline its operation
to ensure that the flow of intornatiun would not suiier
undue delay biefore reaching the 0 field center. Out-
stations, therefore, would require a sufficient auntaer
of "ilesowriters" so that teletype tapes could be made
simultaneously with the typing of reports and it is
possible that 24 hour standby of communications facili-
ties would 'iA required..
.. The Washington end of the system wauid, at course,
present a large problem mince extensive modification
of present methods and equipment would be required.
The initial selection of material for dissemination
in accordance with the unique requirements and priorities
of Individual consumers becomes one of the first com-
sideratio . One way of doing this wouule -e to employ
as NSA-typo system r- that is, the field station would
determine the ultimate distribution of items it reports
and would punch the appropriate routing ia&tructions in
the teletype tape which it produces. Upon receipt in
the sabiaagton center the cables would be scanned eloct-
tronically and routed automatically to ultimate cons ra.
A system such as this is feasible technically and would
ensure alert Immediate delivery of field items to users.
The difficulties which such a system pesos are fairly
obvious;
1. ih~/P cables, tor example, are now screenesu an
TM reports. The concept of a tielo station send-
ing its cables to users without an intermediate re-
view would require a fairly drastic chi ge in poli-
cies and procedures. This would no douf t make it
essential for field stations to pertorn reviews of
material in tam of certain criteria before trans-
mission in order to determine it the material is
"end-product" or "operational" data.
2. The Washington center would have to be alert
for cables with security and dissemination restric-
tions such as Internal Use Only".
