Memorandum for Executive Director-
Comptroller from D/Personnel,
Subject: Coordination of Actions
Required to Reduce On-Duty Strength
During FY 1965, 28 October 1964
(attached)
B. Action Memorandum A-417, same
subject, 26 August 1964
1. The attached report (Reference A) was submitted in
response to the reporting requirement which you established in
Action Memorandum A-417.
2. A review of the attached papers indicates that, with
respect to reducing on-duty strength, there has been some action
in planning but little or no progress in reduction.
a. ThR Director of Personnel reports significant
achievements in all Directorates "to equate component
staffing complements to new ceilings. " Such action was
taking place even within the Plans Directorate while that
Directorate was proposing delays in reducing to ceiling
levels. Revisions to staffing complements will be
completed before the end of the fiscal year.
b. The Science and Technology Directorate
reports no problem in adjusting its components' strengths
to ceiling. This obviously is because they are in an
expansion situation.

c. Although eight of the nine components in the
Intelligence Directorate face current overages, a
concentrated effort on an Agency-wide basis by the
Director of Personnel should eliminate all overages
by the fiscal year's end.
d. The Support Directorate has plans for
eliminating its overages on time.
e. The plans of the Plans Directorate for
eliminating its overages are, of course, not yet
formulated. The overages are significant.
3. Once a component's personnel strength is reduced to
ceiling, the Director of Personnel's automatic controls will maintain
that situation if they have the backing of the Director's office.
4. Also attached hereto are memoranda for your signature
which direct changes in the reporting procedure and which call
for a continuing aggressive program of personnel economy.
