Surveillance Counter-measure Committee under the temporary
chairmanship of Mr. Thomas Karameseinee, Assistant Deputy
Director for Mans for CIA. The Committee to made up of repre-
yes of the Intelligence Co nunity. The work is to be
out by two sub-committees -- one with responsibility for
rch and development, and the other for implementation of
urea.
I a= of the opinion, and USIB concurs, that this Corn
should have a full-time chairman. for
ten years Chief of Technical Services Division, CIA, who is
particularly well qualified in this field, is free to accept this
appointment. His selection has been concurred in by General Carter
of CIA, General Carroll of DIA, and Mr. Hughes of the Department
r to making this formal appointment, I would like to have
your views since the work of this Committee requires not only the
support of the Intelligence Community, but that of other elements
of the Department of State and Department of Defense.
There is some urgency attached to this matter since Mr.
is willing to serve, but is delaying a decision on other
Les open to him until this question is resolved.
