MEMORANDUM FIR: Executive Assistant to the DCI
SUBJECT: DCI Appearance before the President's
Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIA13)
1. Communications Security. Mr. Clifford's memorandum
asks for comments on how to strengthen (among other things) com-
munications security. Communications security is the responsibility,
of the Communications Security Board, the Chairman of which is
Dr. John S. Foster. The DCI is represented on this Board. and is
obviously interested in the problem. However, the communications
security programs, which are developed by NSA, have not been
considered as coming within the DCI's area of personal responsibility.
The DCI was briefed generally on these programs at the time of his
visit to Fort Meade last summer.
2. General Carroll's A earance before the PFIAB. I
talked to General rro l about his appearance which is scheduled
for this afternoon. He proposes to talk rather briefly and answer
questions. Generally his position is compatible with the statements
in the briefing papers prepared for the DCI. He thinks that the
1 provement of collection programs aimed against China and South-
a;st Asia has been very impressive, particularly in the
overhead reconnaissance fields. He will take the position that he
believes we are doing about all we can in these areas. His only
serious complaint involves efforts by the State Department and the
Bureau of the Budget to reduce the military attache program. He
promised to let me know if anything coaxes up during the course of
his appearance which he thought would interest the DCI.
