1 ORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
SUBJECT: Scientific and Technical Efforts in the
Foreign Intelligence Field
Your report of June 24, 1964, reflects that further
organizational and planning steps have been taken by the
Central Intelligence Agency in the area of the recommend-
ation made by the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory
Board on March 8, 1903 for the assignment of top priority
to the creation, organization and exploitation of new
resources of science and technology for intelligence
purposes.
Noting that you plan to submit a further report in
July on substantive progress made in this field, it would
be appreciated if your forthcoming report would include
(1) a comprehensive review of the principal actions taken
within the Central Intelligence Agency to date in meeting
the objectives of each of the five parts of the Board's
recommendation, and (2) a coordinated report, prepared in
consultation with the member agencies of the intelligence
community involved, reflecting the status of plans and
actions by such agencies in the areas dealt with in
Paragraphs (a) and (e) of the Board's recommendation,
It is also requested that a copy of your July report
be forwarded to the President's Board in time for consider-
ation at the Board's meeting on August 6-7, 1964
