Notes for Your Talk to the Senior Seminar
in Foreign Policy at 3:45, 15 November,
in USIB Conference Room
1. Yours will be the Agency's closing remarks. Prior to
your appearance, the students will have heard a brief welcoming
address from DCI; a rundown on the intelligence community and the
history of CIA from Kirk; the relationship of intelligence to the
formulation of policy from Ray Cline; the role of science and tech-
nology from Bud Wheelon; and the clandestine services from Dick
Helms.
2. Suggest your remarks include the following:
I. Appropriate remarks on the value of having the
student members of the Seminar aboard in order that
they can become better acquainted with the Agency's
capabilities and resources. This knowledge can and
should be put to use by these students as they assume
their various tasks in government agencies.
II. We think highly of the Senior Seminar program
and beginning next year, we are sending two Agency
students to each running of the Seminar.
III, Note the value of the students' rent opport

IV. Next March the Agency will make a presentation
to the students on the Agency's role in counterinsurgency.
the Chief of our Special Operations Divi-
sion will make the presentation. We also plan to include
a display of covert paramilitary equipment. This display
has been seen by President Kennedy and was of consider-
able interest to the staff and students of the National War
College who spent a day here with us last month.
V. Appropriate remarks on our pleasure at having
had the students here with us.

AGENCY NEWSLETTER
1. The past few months have been a period of intense activity at
Headquarters. The Cuban crisis having calmed down somewhat, we now
find ourselves in the middle of the Vietnamese crisis. Much has been
written and will be written about the Agency's role in the crisis and cer-
tain aspects of it have political overtones. In a newsletter such as this
there is not space to permit a complete analysis of the performance of
the Agency, but I believe the question you would most like answered is
whether you can be proud of what the Agency has done in South Vietnam.
The answer is "Yes, you can be very proud". You are familiar, after
the Cuban crisis, with the fact that once a situation develops into this
magnitude it is almost impossible to protect our operations, and once
they are opened to scrutiny they are often misrepresented and misinter-
preted, so I want to take this opportunity to tell you that we here in
Headquarters consider that the Agency's performance in South Vietnam
has been first-rate. We are confident that the top executives of our
Government, members of Congress and the press are becoming more
and more aware of the importance of the Agency in carrying out national
policy.
2. It should be of particular interest to the personnel in the GS- 13
to GS-15 category that the first Mid-Career Training Course began on
7 October with 30 students representing all major components of the
Agency. This Course is part of the Agency Mid-Career Training Pro-
gram which establishes the principle that each Career Service will make
a critical assessment of each of its members at his mid-career stage to
evaluate his prior experience, accomplishments and potential. This will
serve as a basis for planning an appropriate program for his future train-
ing and growth to insure that the individual will be of most value to his
Career Service and to the Agency. The training program will be tailored
to each individual's needs, taking into consideration his prior experience
and training as well as his probable future development and responsibilities.
The training may be stretched over several months or years. The Mid-
Career Training Course, of approximately six weeks duration., is one part
of the Mid-Career Training Program. Among other topics, the Course
covers the functioning of the various components of the Agency; the
 Approved For Release 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B01676R001400110004-3
functioning of other agencies of the US Government, particularly those
with intelligence and action responsibilities, and the Agency's relation
to them; also covered are foreign and domestic political and other factors
affecting US Government policy and actions. To give you an indication of
the quality of the Course, the following individuals, in addition to almost
all the top officers of the Agency, were speakers at the first course:
Allen Dulles, McGeorge Bundy, William Bundy, G. Mennen Williams
and Dean Acheson.
3. The Director and all other senior officers of the Agency have
been doing everything possible to see that the Early Retirement Bill is
enacted into law. As you. are aware, its purpose is to afford an improved
retirement system for a portion of the employees of CIA. Generally only
those career employees whose work is oriented toward the conduct and
support of intelligence activities abroad are to be covered under the system.
It was determined that rather than establish an entirely new system, the
Agency would follow precedent established in the retirement field by
Foreign Service legislation. Consequently, the Bill authorizes the estab-
lishment of a separate retirement system for the Agency which is
substantively identical to that of the Foreign Service. It is estimated
that approximately thirty percent of all Agency employees will qualify for
coverage under this system. The Bill provides for voluntary retirement
at age 50 if an employee has 20 years of Government service and at least
five years of service with the Agency. Where individuals. in GS-14 and
above are retired involuntarily, they would be entitled to draw an immedi-
ate earned annuity regardless of age. Where the employee involuntarily
retired is grade GS-13 or below, he would be entitled to severance pay
equal to one month's pay for each year's service not to exceed 12 months
and, if otherwise eligible, to deferred annuities at age 60. It is believed
the enactment of this legislation will fulfill Agency needs and will enable
the Agency to keep a younger service by retiring people earlier and pro-
viding for them a more equitable annuity. It will, we believe, significantly
improve the career structure of CIA and will permit greater efficiency and
flexibility to Agency management and administration generally.
I am certain you will be interested in these remarks of
Mr. McCone when he discussed the Bill before the House Armed Services
Committee on 23 July:
"I have now been associated with the Central Intelligence
Agency for almost two years and I have been Director since
the 29th of November 1961.

"During the period of my service with Secretary Forrestal
in 1947 and 1948, and as Under Secretary of the Air Force in
1950 and 1951, and more recently as Chairman of the Atomic
Energy Commission in 1958 and 1961, I naturally had a very
considerable contact with CIA. Hence, through direct partici-
pations in recent years, and through a less, intimate but still
important contact over a long period of time, I have been able
to personally evaluate the quality, integrity, and the dedication
of the employees of the Agency.
"It is my belief that the caliber of.the.:personnel of the
Agency is unequalled in any other agency of Government and,
for that matter, any private industry with which I have been
associated. I can say very frankly that ,I have never been,
surrounded by a group of men of greater intellectual quality
or more sincere dedication of purpose than the men associated
with me in the Central Intelligence Agency.
"For the most. part, the senior men and women in the
Agency possess a most unusual academic, background, and,
in addition, a high.degree,of professionalism gained through
uninterrupted service extending over a great many years with
the CIA and its predecessor. organizations.
."With world conditions as they are,. and. in. view. of the
serious responsibilities assigned to, the Central. Intelligence
Agency bylaw or. by Presidential directives, I believe it
essential that the superb quality of men and women of CIA be
maintained and indeed be improved, and, moreover, that the
dedication of these employees be recognized by. the provision
of adequate benefits.
"I believe the enactment of this legislation will be a positive
step in this direction. The legislation will significantly improve
the career structure of the Agency and will permit greater,
efficiency in personnel. management of the: Agency. "
"The task of the Central Intellige.nce.Agency is a most
serious and difficult one. We are charged by law with the
responsibility of furnishing to the President and his policy
advisers evaluations concerning the intentions of other countries,
most particularly of the Communis.t.bloc,. Upon these evaluations

hinge a great many basic decisions which affect the security
and the future of the United States, and, for that matter the
free world.
"We in the Government,can afford nothing less than the
best in personnel who shoulder this responsibility, and the
proposed Central Intelligence Agency retirement system
will in my opinion do a great deal in maintaining the quality
of that which we now have and in encouraging its continual
improvement.
"I therefore heartily endorse this legislation, and I urge
its early and favorable consideration by the Congress.
"As this committee knows, Lt. Gen. Marshall Carter,
Deputy Director of Central Intelligence, serves as the
General Manager of the Central Intelligence Agency. This
is a necessary arrangement if I, as the President's principal
intelligence officer, am to be free to consider problems of
the intelligence community as a whole.
"General Carter, therefore, is the man in CIA most
familiar with all of the details of this legislation and best
equipped to present the matter to you and.to answer your
questions.
"However, this is a subject which has been close to me
in CIA and in the State Department when I was studying this
problem as a member of Secretary Dulles' personnel policy
committee, and also in the Defense Department as well.
"In introducing General Carter and asking that he continue
this presentation, I wish to assure you of my support of this
legislation and my desire to answer any questions you may
care to direct to me. "
You will also be interested in the remarks of Congressman Rivers
on 4 September when he was discussing the proposed Bill before the House
Armed Services Committee:
"Let me at the outset say, Mr. Chairman, that we worked
pretty hard on this bill. It affects one of our vital agencies.
It-is doing an outstanding job . . .

"In our opinion, many CIA. employees s.e.r-ve under. condi-
tions which are as difficult, probably, more dangexous: and
onerous than the conditions which led to improved retirement
benefits for the Foreign Service- and certain personnel of the
FBI and other agencies.
'CIA employees who will come under this proposed
system are obligated, in writing, to serve anywhere in the
world according to the needs, of the Agency, as: is the case
in the Foreign Service and the military, but unlike the normal
civil service employee. The Agency has a definite-- need. to .
maintain a young service by encouraging earlier retirement
and in some cases directing earlier retirement. The, volun-
tary early retirement features' of the 'proposed legislation
will serve this end. "
The Bill has passed the House and is now before the Senate
Committee on Armed Services.
5. The Field will be interested to learn of the broadened effort the
Agency has mounted to create a better understanding of our capabilities
on the part of the military and the State Department. We, are, now giving
briefings to the senior military schools (such as the National War, College),
interdepartmental seminars (conducted by the Foreign Service Institute),
and the State Department senior seminar group, on the mission and
functions of the Agency and its role in counterinsurgency. As part of
this program the faculty, student body and directing staff of the National
War College visited the Agency on 14 October to attend lectures and
briefings. We believe these efforts are having a good effect. in gradually
producing a realistic and mature understanding of the Agency among
senior US officials who should understand our role.
6. Along these same lines, "The 100 Universities Program" gives
a new dimension to Agency recruitment and public relations. During the
week of 4 November, 20 senior officials, drawn from the four Deputy

We have gained immensely in practical knowledge as a result
of the Cuban crisis, and as you are aware we have made a number of
practical adjustments based on this experience. However, much remains
to be done.
8. There have been several major organizational changes in the
Agency about which you should be aware. On 6 August 1963 Mr. McCone
approved the reorganization of the DD/R, redesignated the Deputy Direc-
torate for Science and Technology; Dr. Albert D. Wheelonwas named
Deputy Director. The DD/S&T retains the Office of Special Activities,
the Office of Elint and the Office of Research and Development. In
addition, the Office of Scientific Intelligence was moved from DD/I to
DD/S&T and the Automatic Data Processing Staff was moved from DD/S
to DD/S&T and renamed the Office of Computer Services. At the time of
the reorganization the DCI gave the following reasons for establishing
the DD/S&T:
a. To insure the professional coupling of all Agency
scientific and technical assets and programs.
b. To enlarge and improve Agency scientific and technical
environment.
c. To facilitate the development of the scientific and
technical career services.
d. To give flexibility in the collection and analysis of
scientific and technical material.
e. And, finally, to facilitate shift in skills as changing
requirements demand.
The DD/S&T will continue to support National Intelligence Esti-
mates through ONE and coordinate fully with DD/I all scientific .and
technical intelligence production for consumers outside the Agency.

The Office of Computer Services pools the majority of Agency
capabilities and equipment in this field.
Dr Wheelon also replaces the DDCI as Chairman of the Agency
Research and Development Review Board, comprised of the Chief of the
Technical Services Division, the Director of Communications, the
Assistant Director for Scientific Intelligence, and the Director of the
National Photographic Interpretation Center. This Board was established
for the purpose of reviewing and integrating research and development
activities, and scientific and technical efforts, in the various Agency
components concerned. The Board also ensures that all scientific and
technical activities are constantly related to the broadest interpretation
of the Agency's mission. and constitutes a reviewing body for the Agency's
research and development effort as a whole. 25X1
9. As you can see we have been making a major effort to give our
scientific and technical activity the important place the times call for.
As a further step to bring excellence t our scientific and technical eff rt

Board will be to advise the Director on the adequacy of the Agency
research and development effort and point out.possible application of
newly emerging scientific developments to the mission of the Central
Intelligence Agency. is ably assisted by top-notch experts
from the American industrial and academic scene.
10. Another change of real significance has been the appointment of
Mr. John Bross to be Deputy to the Director for National Intelligence Pro-
grams Evaluation. On 6 September 1963 the DCI sent a memorandum to
the members of the USIB which stated:
"At the time of my appointment as Director of Central
Intelligence and later by letter of 16 January 1962, the Presi-
dent directed that I maintain, with the Heads of the Depart-
ments and Agencies. concerned, a continuing review of the
programs and activities of all Departments and Agencies
engaged in foreign intelligence activities.
"The purpose of this directive was to ensure proper
coordination of all elements of the Intelligence Community
and to provide effective guidance to them in the interest of
0 SECRET O
 Approved For ,ase 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B0167p1400110004-3
ensuring efficiency and completeness of coverage with a
minimum of waste and duplication. To date I have dis-
charged these responsibilities personally, working
directly with you or your representatives on the United
States Intelligence Board.
"I now feel that to carry on this work more effectively
a small staff reporting directly to me is necessary.
Therefore I am appointing Mr. John A. Bross as my
Deputy for National Intelligence Programs Evaluation and
have directed him to organize the necessary staff. He will
be responsible for the review and evaluation of programs of
the Intelligence Community as a whole. He will represent
me in my capacity as Director of Central Intelligence as
contrasted with my responsibility as Director of the Central
Intelligence Agency.
"Initially it is my intention that Mr. Bross and his staff
concern themselves primarily with the development of a
community-wide intelligence activity inventory to establish
the totality of the United States foreign intelligence effort
in terms of activities performed, their objectives, and the
resources committed to their support. Such an inventory
will serve as a basis for community-wide program evalua-
tion and will facilitate judgments concerning the relative
cost and effectiveness of particular programs, thereby con-
tributing to sound decisions concerning our investment of
money and manpower in our intelligence effort.
"In addition, Mr. Bross will review and evaluate for me
the actions of the USIB committees and members of the
Intelligence Community taken to implement the Priority
National Intelligence Objectives as established at regular
intervals by USIB. The PNIO's set forth the most important
tasks to be undertaken by the Intelligence Community, and
thus serve as a guideline for the community's activities. The
reviews will be submitted to the United States Intelligence
Board periodically.

SUBJECT : Graduation Speech to Mid-career Course
Here are some of the things which happened, or were said, which
may give you some background:
During the first two weeks at the Farm which were devoted to a
25x1 discussion of the Agency:
I the only pre-JOT who has taken the Mid-career
Course De fore a ook the JOT course and acted nobly as bus driver
and got cheered every time he went around the corner without getting
the rear wheels over the curb. (You are being requested to give him
an Honorary Diploma!)
The best jobs done in presentation were by Kirkpatrick and Cline
and Colby and Wheelon. The last made us all feel the importance of 25x1
technical intelligence collection. So did Lundahl.
The most revealing professional secret unloaded was
who bluntly said that the CE world was so sacred it sh s-
cussed even in the Agency family. I understand he is now walking
around with a bodyguard.
Mr. A. W. D. was superb as always, and told us that in fact
intelligence is a.difficult and dirty business that can only be
entrusted to people with the G-Damnedest highest principles.
The second two weeks at the Brookings Institution were interesting
but had too many political scientists. The most interesting parts
were those which discussed the power factors in the U. S. Government,
e.g., the White House, the Bureau of the Budget, and A.I.D.

two weeks were concerned with "World Affairs."
the anthropologist, told us that we were really
entitled to consider ourselves different from the Australian
aborigines, but Dean Acheson wasn't so sure. Anyhow, Acheson
felt we are all different from General DeGaulle. He hopes that
we are all different from George Kennan.
Mr. McCone said that he had discovered that the Course had been
so successful that its members had decided that they were able to
pull off a coup in the Agency and seize power. He didn't mind this
particularly, as long as it was kept to the Deputy Director level,
but there was a level at which this sort of an idea should stop!
Every officer in the Agency was most helpful in presenting the
course, as were many high level outside speakers. One of the best
student reflections I heard was that government officials were
really a very able and fine lot of people.
There were a number of very nice things said about the Course.
My impression was that people felt honored by being in it and
learned a very great deal.

Welcoming Speech to Project USEFUL No. 10
Good morning. It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Central
Intelligence Agency.
It's nice to see so large a group. You are the tenth group
scheduled to participate in Project USEFUL since its inception at
the request of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in 1954, and I know your time
here will be well spent. You have been selected by your parent
Services to meet with us to be briefed on the nature of our work here
at CIA.
Over the next two weeks a number of our senior people will
talk with you on subjects designed to give you a good deep look at CIA.
I hope that after these two weeks you will return to your organizations
with a better understanding of CIA's role in national security. I
invite you particularly to relate what you learn here to the problems
you face and to be thinking of the ways in which this Agency can be of
use to the military establishments, particularly in wartime.
The speakers who will follow me will cover in some detail
the organization of the intelligence community and the various jobs
that are done here in CIA. Let me describe these in general terms
for you.
 Approved For Rase 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B016764,001400110004-3
The intelligence community is composed of the CIA, the
Defense Intelligence Agency, the Intelligence Bureau of the State
Department, the intelligence components of the Army, Navy and
Air Force, the National Security Agency, the FBI, and the Intel-
ligence Office in the AEC. The top officials of each of these com-
ponents meet weekly as members of the United States Intelligence
Board. The Board is chaired by Mr. Mc Cone as Director of
Central Intelligence.
The USIB acts as a sort of Board of Directors of the intelli-
gence business. Two of its most important functions are to discuss
and approve National Intelligence Estimates and to determine, after
due consultation with policymakers, the Priority National Intelligence
Objectives. These Objectives are in the form of $64, 000 questions
which we must try to answer to the policymakers' satisfaction. The
Priority Objectives include such topics as Sino -Soviet preparations
for attacks against free world countries.
To accomplish its task of trying to get the answers to such
important questions as these, each, agency in the intelligence
community collects the kind of information it is best suited to collect,
makes it available to other intelligence agencies, and analytical
work begins. In addition to these efforts by each of the agencies
in the community, there are certain national assets available to the
community. These include the National Security Agency at Fort Meade.
 Approved For Release 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B01676R001400110004-3
?
The NSA,,the cryptologic service of the USUis charged with the
responsibility for gathering communications intelligence and electronic
intelligence. Information of this type is brought together at NSA,
analyzed, a L L 1, and disseminated to the intelligence community.
In addition there is the National Reconnaissance Office which
is reyponsible for all overhead photography. It functions under the
Secretary of Defense and executes plans developed jointly by the
Director of Central Intelligence and the Secretary of Defense.
There is the National Photographic Interpretation Center, known
as NPIC NPIC receives, analyzes and reports on the productilm of
overhead reconnaissance. NPIC is under the CIA which is the
Executive Agent for national photographic interpretation.
This is no small community. The work requires something in
excess of 100, 000 men ands women. Its budget is estimated at
something between $2 and $4 billion a year depending upon just what
is allocated to intelligence and what is allocated to reconnaissance
as a normal function of the armed services.

? .
In CIA our two main functions are: (1) the collection of foreign
intelligence and (2) the analysis, correlation, production and dissemina-
tion of finished intelligence.
When I speak of finished intelligence, I am referring to such
things as National Intelligence Estimates which make vital and
important forecasts of situations lying ahead. These Estimates
cover a wide range of subjects. The most important is perhaps the
annual estimate dealing with the Soviet capability for long -range
attack against the continental US, but there are equally important
estimates covering such topics as, "Prospects for Stability in Ceylon. "
In addition the CIA turns out finished current intelligence
daily and weekly. These are brief assessments of critical developments
taking place around the world.
The preparation of an intelligence product of this kind requires
an elaborate supporting structure of up-to -the -minute communicatiosis
and a quick reaction time among our analysts who must be able to Eris
p1ce together a number of fragments to develop a quick and meaningful
summary of what the fragments portend.
In our clandestine offices in CIA the major effort is built around
-Ar 1L1 !
the collection of foreign intelligence t p with. preparation
of finished intelligence for the policymakers. In addition to these
collection efforts, we have found it necessary over the years to build
 Approved For Rase 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B01676RO 1400110004-3
capabilities in other fields which we are frequently called upon to
use. These include propaganda, psychological warfare, counter-
intelligence and paramilitary operations.
As examples of what I am talking about, we must be able to
provide paramilitary instruction and hardware on short notice to
countries in various parts of the world upon direction of higher
authority. We must keep a close tab on the Sino-Soviet intelligence
apparatus, and we work closely with the FBI in developing plans to
'forte penetration efforts by the enemy.
I want to emphasize to you that the CIA, despite what you read
in the press, does not operate unilaterally, it does not make policy
and it uses its capabilities only when directed to. Covert US actions,
wherever they may take place around the world, are only undertaken
upon approval by the White House, State Department, Defense, or all
three.
E With the need for secrecy in much of our business, we
become natural targets, particularly of the press, for criticism.
 Approved For Rase 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B016764 1400110004-3
This is something we have learned to live with. We can neither
trumpet our successes nor openly defend ourselves in event of
attack.
While I am on this subject, let me discuss the South Vietnam
situation to straighten out the picture as presented by the press.
In 1961, when the US made its commitment to_' I t up South
Vietnam and put an end to Viet Cong x insurgency, the US military
Special Forces were not totally prepared to take over the responsibility
for the immediate training of the necessary number of South Vietnamese
forces to combat the insurgency. MAAG was already overburdened
with the training of the South Vietnamese army and we were asked to
assume the function of covert training in various counterinsurgency
fields in South Vietman.
As the size of the war effort grew, CIA's activities in these
fields expanded and it became impossible to keep our activity as covert
as we would have liked. Gradually, over the past 18 months, as the
US military became capable, we began to transfer phases of our
activities to the military. Even so, parts of the activity remained
with us by direction of General Harkins even though it was somewhat
beyond our normal charter. Our activities are what General Harkins

It was the subject of review periodically in Washington. There was
general approval of the manner in which we were handling this task
that had been given us.

While carrying out these tasks in the CI field, the CIA station
in Saigon continued to forward intelligence reports of the political
situation in South Vietnam. The record of this reporting shows that
it has been remarkably accurate. We saw the tarnishing of the
image of the Diem government in the eyes of the South Vietnamese
people; we noted the success of the war effort and we noted that the
tarnishing of the Diem regime had not serio usly affected the war
effort, but as the Buddhist problem became acute, we also predicted
that if the Diem government did not correct and reform itself in
some way soon, the war effort would be seriously affected.
station
Our zibamtion has reported countless tdimarx rumors of coups
and coup planning by the South Vietnamese military but it was the
station's and the intelligence community's evaluation that a coup
attempt would probably touch off civil war and that the only ultimate
victor would be the Viet Cong.
At no time has the Station in Saigon or has CIA in Washington
taken unilateral steps in this situation. Criticism of us has, to a
great extent, been malicious; it has been wrong and it has been
detrimental to the interests of the United States. We are happy that
Secretary MaNamara and General Taylor's recent trip has once and
for all put this criticism to rest and we hope we will hear no more
about it.

like to discuss these major points: the relationship of intelligence to policy -
the relationship of intelligence to security - and last, some problems of
coordination.
INTELLIGENCE AND POLICY
As you well know, traditionally, intelligence has been a support function
to policy formulation and policy implementation. The policymaker turns to
intelligence for answers to the questions which he must resolve before he
makes decisions. Most of his answers will come from overt intelligence
organizations. For answers to the more difficult questions, he turns to
clandestine intelligence collection organizations which sometimes can supply
him with the key information upon which his decisions will be based. I will
be the first to admit that we do not always find the complete answer to the
policymaker's questions, nor is he always completely satisfied with our re-
sult. We-do find, however, answers to many of his "knottier" questions.
The relationship between the policymaker and the intelligence organizations
which serve him is an outgrowth of the completeness and accuracy of the
intelligence provided. Sometimes the relationship between the two is not as
good as it should be because the policymaker does not know the capabilities
and the limitations of the intelligence organizations which support him.

Those of you who are involved in policy planning, and depend upon us for
support, need, therefore, to have some knowledge of CIA. Project USEFUL
is one way of accomplishing this.
INTELLIGENCE AND SECURITY
Intelligence is part of the basis for policy or contemplated action which
will become apparent at some later time; therefore, it is essential that intel-
ligence protect the interests or potential intentions of the policymakers from
inadvertent or other types of exposure from those against whom policy will be
directed. Furthermore, intelligence uses certain techniques in arriving at
the answers to policy questions which, if revealed, could shut off the flow of
further information, or possibly lead to national embarrassment. The key
device in protecting the interests of those whom we serve is compartmen-
tation -- a device subject to a great deal of interpretation. Normally the
greatest efficiency in any organization is accomplished by the best commun-
ication, both vertically and laterally. Compartmentation limits communication
and consequently hinders efficiency and coordination. There continually exists
the question of how much communication is allowable without sacrificing ef-
fective performance.
Through Project USEFUL we are attempting to give you, or communicate

to you, certain information which I feel will allow for better working
relationships between people in your organization and CIA.
INTELLIGENCE AND COORDINATION
If we examine the total intelligence picture of the United States Government,
as well as the relationship between covert action programs and overall policy,
we find a number of major factors which greatly influence effective coordin-
ation. These are: 1) a policy-directed division of labor, 2) multiplicity of
organizations, 3) bigness, 4) lack of uniformity in organizational patterns for
similar or related functions, and 5) interdependence in order to accomplish
the overall mission.
Let us examine a couple of these factors. Bigness should be looked at
in conjunction with compartmentation and control. Normally the bigger an
operation, whether in Government or business, the greater the problem cf
achieving effective coordination. Add to this compartmentation and there
always exists the possibility of attitudes developing in subunits which can
lead to bureaucratic hardening of the arteries.
Now let us look at the problem of interdependence among intelligence
organizations to accomplish the overall national security mission. There
does not exist in the intelligence community or national planning structure

a self-contained unit which consumes its own product. If such an organization
could exist, it would serve little purpose and undoubtedly would operate at
minimal efficiency. Planners rely on producers of intelligence. Producers
rely on collectors. Producers also rely on other producers for sources of
data and checking hypotheses. Collectors rely on other collectors for col-
lection data. Therefore, since this interdependence is obviously present,
we must not overlook opportunities to utilize the facilities and capabilities
of other intelligence organizations. USEFUL will help point out how we
are dependent on you and you are dependent on us.
Project USEFUL is an effort which will in the long or short haul produce
a working team -- a team dedicated to the task of assuring that the full im-
pact of intelligence is brought to bear on the serious questions of national
policy in peace or in hot war. I hope you will find the next two weeks enjoyable
and, as the project name implies, "USEFUL".

Attachment 1
Project USEFUL Speaker Guidance Sheet
For the 1963 presentation of Project USEFUL, the Joint Staff has been
invited to nominate 50 Officers. A review of the list of nominees received
to date shows that these Officers are, for the most part, engaged in planning,
training or operations in the fields of unconventional warfare, psychological
warfare, or intelligence. All major commands, both overseas and in the
Continental United States, will be represented. All Officers who will attend
have been informed that the information they receive at Project USEFUL is
on a strict "need-to-know" basis.
Objectives: The primary objective of this program from the Agency's
viewpoint is to maintain and improve Agency-Department of Defense
cooperation and coordination through a more effective understanding of CIA
on the part of the military. Thus, we hope to inform these Officers of our
capability to support the military effort in wartime and, conversely, to let
them know what types of support we need from them in order for us to carry
out our missions. For individual speakers, this is the opportunity to acquaint
a large number of officers, with whom you or people in your component will
assuredly work in the future, with those matters which willifacilitate the
accomplishment of your tasks.
Approach: In previous courses, the audience has reacted more favorably
to presentations which stressed the positive contributions- which the Agency can
make to the Intelligence Community and to the Military in time of war. While
recognizing the difficulties inherent in clandestine or covert operations, a
positive approacz towards their solution will be appreciated by the Officers.
Lecturers in the past have effectively used historical examples to illustrate
major points. References to current or sensitive operations should be avoided.
Please bear in mind that for a number of these Officers, Project USEFUL
is their first close acquaintanceship with CIA. It might be well to avoid, or
to spell out, internal Agency terminology with which they are not familiar.
From past experience, we may expect frank and direct,questions, a strong
desire to understand, and an appreciation of the contributions which the CIA
is making towards the attainment of National objectives.

SUBJECT . Suggested Topics for Consideration by the
DDCI in His Intelligence Review Presentation
on 25 October, 1145 Hours.
1. The intelligence Review Course is designed to provide
an opportunity for experienced personnel to review the current
state of the intelligence profession; to examine organizational
changes and inter-relationships; to review intelligence objectives
and requirements; to examine the current status of the Intelli-
gence process and to consider future trends.
2. Members of the seminar have suggested consideration of
such topics as the following:
(1) "Present status and outlook for career planning
and career development:
a.
role of internal training;
b.
role of
rotation for on-the-job training;
c.
role of
foreign assignments; and
d.
role of
incentives for self study.
"To improve professional competence of present employees,
so that they may have an opportunity to fill the future personnel
needs of the Agency in:
a.
b.
c.
middle management;
computer and machine processing;
technical and scientific areas;
and
d.
job vacancies in other components of Agency."
(2) "Will the rigidity of career service lines continue to
effectively prevent - assignment of individuals to duty with
other career services?"
(3) "Why are experienced and professional Agency employees
who are declared surplus by one component not used to fill
vacancies in another component, e.g., 71 surplus OCR professionals
experienced in writing are reportedly not to be acceptable to DDP
to fill reports officer vacancies?"

? SE`~~I~`~uC RT ?
(4) "From recent articles, and comments in this course
/ (Intell Review) DIA seems to be trying to out-CIA the Agency.
Have you any comments on this?"
(5) "In his capacity as coordinator of the overall USIB
Intelligence efforts, just how much influence can the DCl exert
V/ to eliminate needless duplication of effort -- particularly with
respect to DIA/CIA relationships?"
(6) "What are the benefits, if any, of being appointed to
the Career Service?"
(7) "Has the Agency explored the feasibility of regular
short tours of duty with other government or private research
agencies, in order for employees to improve their substantive
competence?"

SUSPENSE - 11 October
I calle n office on 10 Sep,
told her I had brought this matter up with General
Carter but that he had given neither a yes nor a
no reply -- that we would put the memo in suspense
for about a week before the course and bring it up
with General Carter again; and that we would be
in touch with OTR at that time.

NOTES FOR GENERAL CARTER'S WELCOMING REMARKS
These points are suggested for development in General Carter's seven
minute welcoming remarks:
A. Comments on CIA's Place in The National War College Curriculum for
63-64
If not mentioned by General. Wooten, recognition would appear to be
in order that this session will be the third "exposure" to CIA speakers
during NWC's Course Number 3, entitled "Formulation of National Security
Policy."
(1) Mr. McCone addressed the combined classes of The
National War College and the Industrial College of
the Armed Forces on Wednesday morning, 9 October.
(2) Mr. Kirkpatrick will have talked with NWC on Friday
afternoon, 11 October--immediately prior to this
program.
B. Comments on the Likelihood that the Visit to Headquarters Building
can now be considered as an Annual Affair
(1) As indicators of the latter, we have:
(a) The apparent success of last spring's initial visit
and
(b) A return this fall.
C. Comments on Modifications from Last Year
(1) General Griswold expressed particular interest in having
the 163-164 class hear about:
(a) The Agency's role and capabilities in counterinsurgency.
(b) The technical intelligence presentation, and
(c) The photographic intelligence coverage.
(2) We have targeted our presentations to cover these specific
topics; two this morning and a third in the afternoon.
(3) After luncheon, each of our guests will have the opportunity
to visit two areas within the Building. One is an exhibit
of Agency publications and intelligence products and the
other is a display of covert paramilitary equipment. I
sincerely hope that our day will prove highly worthwhile.

ANNUAL VISIT OF NATIONAL WAR COLLEGE CLASS TO HEADQUARTERS BUILDING
1. The Student Body, Faculty, and Directing Staff of the 1963-
64 Class of The National War College will be guests of the Agency on
Monday, 14 October 1963. The annual visit is scheduled considerably
earlier in the academic year than was the case for the 1962-63 class.
2. The group will arrive by bus at 8:45 a.m. and will be admitted
via the tunnel entrance for a morning academic program in the CIA
Auditorium. After luncheon in the North Cafeteria, the group will be
divided for visits to selected areas on the first and ground floors in
the south end of the building. At midafternoon the group will reassemble
for a final CIA presentation in the Auditorium and depart shortly after
4:00 p.m.
3. The presence of 160 senior military and civilian guests requires
adjustments and cooperation on the part of Agency employees, particularly
during the luncheon hours. These are the changes for 14 October only:
a. North Cafeteria will be used exclusively by the
conference group and by Agency alumni of The National War
College and other Agency hosts, during the lunch period.
b. Other official visitors will be permitted the use
of the North Dining Room if accompanied by Agency employees.
The building exit near the North Cafeteria will be locked.
c. Agency employees not involved with visitors will be
expected to use the South Cafeteria. The Cafeteria Manager
has urged fuller use of the South Cafeteria during the slack periods,
11 - 11:45 a.m. and after 1 p.m.
4. All employees are requested to cooperate in observing these
necessary adjustments during the luncheon hours. The Agency wishes
to extend complete hospitality to The National War College guests and
to other official visitors who will be here on 14 October, and to make
their visit an impressive and successful occasion.

Re the static display at Area B, it will not be set up until late Friday afternoon,
at the earliest.
Will you plan to wait until Monday at 11:00 to see both displays? Yes No o/

THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY

THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
The United States has carried on intelligence activities since the
days of George Washington, but only after World War II have they been
systematized on a government wide basis.
The organization first formed for this purpose was authorized in a
letter-directive dated 22 January 191x6, in which President Harry S. Truman
instructed the Secretary of State (James F. Byrnes), the Secretary of War
(Robert P. Patterson), the Secretary of the Navy (James V. Forrestal),
and his own personal representative (Admiral William D. Leahy), to
constitute themselves as the "National Intelligence Authority." The
Authority was directed to plan, develop, and coordinate "all Federal
foreign intelligence activities" in order to "assure the most effective
accomplishment of the intelligence mission related to the national
security." The members of the Authority assigned persons and funds from
their departments to form the "Central Intelligence Group," which was
the operating body for the NIA. The "Group" was headed by a "Director of
Central Intelligence" appointed by the President.
The National Intelligence Authority (NIA) and its operating component,
the Central Intelligence Group (CIG), were in existence for twenty months
in 1946 and 19117. Under the terms of the National Security Act of 1947
(which became effective on 18 September 1947), they were superseded by the
National Security Council (NSC) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
The first Director of Central Intelligence was Rear Admiral Sidney
W. Souers, U.S. Naval Reserve, who served as head of the Central Intelligence
 Approved For Release 2006/07125.,;:CIA-.RRP80B01676R.0

Group from 23 January 1946 to 7 June 1946. The second was General Hoyt
S. Vandenberg, U.S. Air Force, who served from 10 June 1946 until 1 May
1947. The third was Rear Admiral Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter, U.S.N., who
served as head of the Group from 1 May 1947 until it became the Central
Intelligence Agency on 18 September 1947, when he became the first
Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Admiral. Hillenkoett,er served
as head of the Agency until 7 October 1950.
The fourth Director of Central Intelligence was General' Walter Bedell
Smith, U.S.?.., who served from 7 October 1950 to 9 February 1953.
The fifth Director of Central Intelligence was Mr. Allen Welsh Dulles,
who served as Director from 26 February 1953 to 29 November 1961.
Mr. John Alex McCone, the present Director of Central Intelligence,
was designated for that position by President Kennedy on 27 September 1961.
He was given a recess appointment and sworn into office on 29 November
1961 in the White House. The oath of office was administered by Earl
Warren, the Chief Justice of the United States. Mr. NcCone's nomination
was unanimously approved by the Senate Armed Services Committee following
a public hearing held on 18 January 1962, and the Senate confirmed his
nomination on 31 January 1962.
The Deputy Direct.or of Central Intelligence is Lieutenant General
Marshall Sylvester Carter, U.S.A. The White House announced on 9 March
1962 that the President had selected Major General Carter to be the
Deputy Director of Central Intelligence. He was nominated by President
Kennedy on 12 March 1962 and confirmed by the Senate on 2 April 1962,
with the rank of Lieutenant General.

There are four Deputy Directors for particular functional responsi-
bilities in CIA, as follows: Deputy Director (Intelligence); Deputy
Director (Plans); Deputy Director (Research); and Deputy Director (Support).
The CIA's headquarters building is located in Langley, near McLean,
Virginia. Its post office address is Washington 25, D.C.
The responsibilities of the CIA derive from two acts of Congress --
the National Security Act of 19117 (Public Law 253, 26 July 1947), as
amended; and the Central Intelligence Agency Act of 1949 (Public Law 110,
20 June 1949), as amended,. Section 102 (d) of the National Security Act
states:
"For the purpose of coordinating the intelligence activ-
ities of the several Government departments and agencies in
the interest of national security, it shall be the duty of the
ffentral Intelligence] Agency, under the direction of the
National Security Council --
"(1) to advise the National Security Council
in matters concerning such intelligence activities
of the Government departments and agencies as relate
to national security;
"(2) to make recommendations to the National
Security Council for the coordination of such intelli-
gence activities of the departments and agencies of
the Government as relate to the national security;
"(3) to correlate and evaluate intelligence
relating to the national security, and provide for
the appropriate dissemination of such intelligence
within the Government using where appropriate
existing agencies and facilities: Provided, That
the Agency shall have no police, subpena, law-
enforcement powers, or internal-security functions:
Provided further, That the departments and other
agencies of the Government shall continue to col-
lect, evaluate, correlate, and disseminate depart-
mental intelligence: And Provided further, That
the Director of Central Intelligence shall be
responsible for protecting intelligence sources
and methods from unauthorized disclosure;
11(4) to perform, for the benefit of the
existing intelligence agencies, such additional
services of common concern as the National Security
 Approved For Release 2006/07/25::.;CIA-RQP80B01676R00.~ ;x}0110004-3
Council determines can be more efficiently
accomplished centrally;
"(5) to perform such other functions and
duties related to intelligence affecting the national
security as the National Security Council may from
time to time direct."
The National Security Act, as amended, specified that both the
Director of Central Intelligence and the Deputy Director shall be
appointed by the President, subject to confirmation by the U.S. Senate.
An amendment of 4 April 1953 authorized such appointments to be made
either from individuals in civilian life or from commissioned officers
of the armed services, whether in active or retired status, provided
that "at no time shall the two positions ... be occupied simultaneously
by commissioned officers ..."
A further act of 1956 (the Federal Executive Pay Act, Public Law
854) established the annual basic compensation of the Director and the
Deputy Director at $21,000 and $20,500, respectively.
The Central Intelligence Agency Act of 1949 (Public Law 110,
20 June 1949) supplemented the National Security Act with respect to
the Central Intelligence Agency as follows:
(1) exempted the Agency, in the interest of "the security
of foreign intelligence activities of the United States," from
such existing Federal laws as require "the publication or dis-
closure of the organization, functions, names, official titles,
salaries, or numbers of personnel employed by the Agency";
(2) specified that the appropriations or other moneys made
available to the Agency "may be expended without regard to the
provisions of law and regulations relating to the expenditure of
Government funds"; and that "for objects of a confidential,
extraordinary, or emergency nature, such expenditures to be
accounted for solely on the certificate of the Director, and
every such certificate shall be deemed a sufficient voucher for
the amount therein certified";
 Approved Fdl.Release 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80BO1676R001400110004-3
(3) permitted the Agency to negotiate purchases and con-
tracts without advertising under certain conditions, such as
for supplies or services the nature of which should. not be
publicly disclosed;
(!t) permitted the Agency to transfer to and receive funds
from other Government agencies, for activities authorized under
the National Security Act, including the reimbursement to other
agencies for personnel assigned or detailed to the Agency;
(5) permitted the Agency to contract for special research
or instruction for Agency personnel at outside institutions;
(6) provided for special travel allowances and related
expenses for Agency personnel assigned to duty outside the
United States;
(7) granted the Director of Central Intelligence authority
to approve the entry into the United States of certain aliens
and their families, up to one hundred persons annually, subject
to the determination (by the Director, the Attorney General, and
the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization) that such
entry is "in the interest of national security or essential to
the furtherance of the national intelligence mission"; and
(8) by an amendment in 1951, authorized the Agency to
employ up to fifteen retired officers of the Armed Services who
have been retired for reasons other than physical disability,
and provided that such officers could elect to receive either
their retired pay or Agency compensation.
Under these acts of Congress, the Director of Central Intelligence
is the Government's principal intelligence officer. He serves as the
principal adviser to the President and the National Security Council on
all matters of intelligence related to the national security. CIA's
responsibilities are carried out subject to various directives and
controls by the President and the National Security Council.
One such directive, issued on 16 January 1962 by President Kennedy
to the Director of Central Intelligence (with copies to the Secretaries
of State and Defense, the Attorney General, and the Chairman of the
- 5 -
 Approved For Release 2006/07125._:. CIA-RDP80BO1676R0.01,400110004-3
Atomic Energy Commission), further defines the responsibilities of the
"In carrying out your newly assigned duties as Director
of Central Intelligence it is my wish that you serve as the
Government's principal foreign intelligence officer, and as
such that you undertake, as an integral part of your respon-
sibility, the coordination and effective guidance of the
total United States foreign intelligence effort. As the
Government's principal intelligence officer, you will assure
the proper coordination, correlation, and evaluation of
intelligence from all sources and its prompt dissemination to
me and to other recipients as appropriate. In fulfillment of
these tasks I shall expect you to work closely with the heads
of all. departments and agencies having responsibilities in the
foreign intelligence field.
"In coordinating and guiding the total intelligence effort,
you will serve as Chairman of the United States Intelligence
Board, with a view to assuring the efficient and effective
operation of the Board and its associated bodies. In this
connection I note with approval that you have designated
your deputy to serve as a member of the Board, thereby bring-
ing to the Board's deliberations the relevant facts and judg-
ments of the Central Intelligence Agency.
"As directed by the President and the National Security
Council, you will establish with the advice and assistance of
the United States Intelligence Board the necessary policies
and procedures to assure adequate coordination of foreign
intelligence activities at all levels.
"With the heads of the Departments and Agencies concerned
you will maintain a continuing review of the programs and
activities of all U.S. agencies engaged in foreign intelligence
activities with a view to assuring efficiency and effectiveness
and to avoiding undesirable duplication.
"As head of the Central Intelligence Agency, while you
will continue to have over-all responsibility for the Agency,
I shall expect you to delegate to your principal deputy, as
you may deem necessary, so much of the direction of the
detailed operation of the Agency as may be required to permit
you to carry out your primary task as Director of Central
Intelligence.
"It is my wish that you keep me advised from time to time
as to your progress in the implementation of this directive
-6-
 Approved Fc.Release 2006/07/25: CI.A-RDP80BO1676R001400110004-3
and as to any recommendations you may have which would facil-
itate the accomplishment of these objectives."
The Director of Central Intelligence, as the President's represent-
ative, and as the Government's principal intelligence officer, is chair-
man of the United States Intelligence Board. The Deputy Director of
Central Intelligence is a member, representing the CIA. The other
members are the heads of the intelligence organizations in the Depart-
ments of State, Army,. Navy, and Air Force; the Director of the Defense
Intelligence Agency; the Director of the National Security Agency; the
Director for Intelligence of the Joint Staff, Joint Chiefs of Staff; and
representatives of the Atomic Energy Commission and the Federal Bureau
of Investigation.
Acting in consultation with the U.S. Intelligence Board, the Director
of Central Intelligence makes recommendations to the National Security
Council concerning. the intelligence structure of the Government as a
whole, to insure that each element is functioning properly in the
national intelligence effort.
Similarly, after coordination with that Board, the Director presents
to the National Security Council "National Intelligence Estimates," pre-
pared by the Central Intelligence Agency working with representatives of
other governmental intelligence organizations and, at times, with cleared
civilian experts. These estimates cover specific foreign situations of
national security concern, or the world situation generally. They may
embody a unanimous opinion, or may contain dissenting views by one or
more of the participants.
 Approved For Release 2006/07/25.:.CIA-RDP80BO1676ROO1. 00110004-3
By means of these coordinated estimates, along with related types
of intelligence reports and evaluations, the Central Intelligence Agency
exercises its responsibility to insure that the information going to the
President and his principal advisers on foreign policy and national
defense --- the members of the National Security Council -- is timely,
consistent, and complete. The CIA brings together the judgment of
intelligence officers in all departments and agencies on the major issues
of fact and interprets them for the benefit of the President and his
advisers.
In addition to its coordination activities, the CIA provides various
"services of common concern" to the U.S. intelligence organization
generally. It conducts independent research in fields of economic and
scientific intelligence; monitors foreign news and propaganda broadcasts;
and collects intelligence abroad. It also provides specialized library
and translation services, including both mechanized and manually operated
data-processing facilities, to the various elements of the U.S. intelli-
gence organization.
CIA's facilities and techniques for the indexing, abstracting,
translation, storage, and retrieval of intelligence information have
been praised as "the most comprehensive information system now in opera-
tion," by the Committee on Government Operations of the U.S. Senate, in
its report of 24 May 1960 entitled "Documentation, Indexing, and Retrieval
of Scientific Information." Among the features of this system described
at length in that report (pp. 16 if. and 62 ff.) are specialized miniature
photography, facsimile-printing devices, and punch card indexes extending
 Approved Fdk Release 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B01676R001400110004-3
to more than 10 million cards, used for retrieving documents automatically.
The Central Intelligence Agency does not duplicate and rival the
existing intelligence organizations of the Department of State, the
Department of Defense, or other U.S. Government agencies. It makes maxi-
mum use of the resources of existing agencies. It helps put an end to
unnecessary duplication.
Applicants for Central Intelligence Agency employment are given a
full security investigation after they have been provisionally approved,
following preliminary tests. Some are eliminated because they drink too
much, talk too much, or have relatives behind the Iron Curtain which may
make the applicants subject to foreign pressure; others are screened out
because they have contacts which render them undesirable for service in
this highly sensitive Agency.
Because of the nature of its duties, required by law and by consid-
erations of national security, the Central Intelligence Agency does not
confirm or deny published reports, whether true or false, favorable or
unfavorable to the Agency or its personnel; never alibis; never explains
its organization; never identifies its personnel, except for the few in
the top echelons; and does not discuss its budget, its methods of opera-
tion, or its sources of information.
The Central Intelligence Agency is directly accountable to Presiden-
tial authority and control. This accountability is exercised in a number
of ways, notably through the National Security Council, which is privy to
CIA's activities and programs generally; through the Bureau of the Budget,
on fiscal matters; and by the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory
Board.

The Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board was established by President
Kennedy on L May 1961. It represents a reactivation, with broadened
terms of reference, of the President's Board of Consultants on Foreign
Intelligence Activities, which had been established by President Eisenhower
in 1956, in line with recommendations made in 1955 by the Hoover Commission.
The Board of Consultants was headed, first, by Dr. James R. Killian, Jr.
(president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology), from January 1956
to February 1958. He was succeeded by Major General John E. Hull, U.S.A.
(Ret.), on 28 February 1958. Dr. Killian returned as chairman when the
new Board was named by President Kennedy, and served from May 1961 to
April 1963. He was succeeded by Mr. Clark M. Clifford, Washington, D.C.,
attorney, on 23 April 1963.
The Board's functions, defined by Executive Order of 4 May 1961 are:
"... The function of the Board shall be to advise the President
with respect to the objectives and conduct of the foreign intel-
ligence and related activities of the United States which are
required in the interests of foreign policy and national defense
and security. ... In the performance of its advisory duties, the
Board shall conduct a continuing review and assessment of all
functions of the Central Intelligence Agency, and of other
executive departments and agencies having such or similar
responsibilities in the foreign intelligence and related fields,
and shall report thereon to the President each six months or
more frequently as deemed appropriate. The Director of Central
Intelligence and the heads of other departments and agencies
concerned shall make available to the Board any information with
respect to foreign intelligence matters which the Board may
require for the purpose of carrying out its responsibilities to
the President. The information so supplied to the Board shall
be afforded requisite security protection as prescribed by the
provisions of applicable laws and regulations."
On appropriations and related legislative matters, the Director of
Central Intelligence has contact with several committees of the Congress,
 Approved Far Release 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80BO1676R001400110004-3
particularly the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, the House
and Senate Armed Services Committees, and their respective subcommittees
dealing with CIA affairs.
President Eisenhower, speaking on 3 November 1959 on the occasion
of the cornerstone laying at CIA's new headquarters building at Langley,
Virginia, characterized CIA's work as follows:
"... In war nothing is more important to a commander than
the facts concerning the strength, dispositions and intentions
of his opponent, and the proper interpretation of those facts.
In peacetime the necessary facts are of a different nature.
They deal with conditions, resources, requirements and attitudes
prevailing in the world. They are essential to the development
of policy to further our long term national security and best
interests. To provide information of this kind is the task of
the organization of which you rmembers of CIA7 are a part.
"No task could be more important.
"Upon the quality of your work depends in large measure
the success of our effort to further the nation's position in
the international scene.
"By its very nature the work of this agency demands of
its members the highest order of dedication, ability, trust-
worthiness and selflessness -- to say nothing of the finest
type of courage, whenever needed. Success cannot be advertised:
failure cannot be explained. In the work of Intelligence,
heroes are undecorated and unsung, often even among their own
fraternity. Their inspiration is rooted in patriotism --
their reward can be little except the conviction that they are
performing a unique and indispensable service for their
country, and the knowledge that America needs and appreciates
their efforts. I assure you this is indeed true. ..."
President Kennedy, speaking to the personnel of CIA at its head-
quarters, Langley, Virginia, on 28 November 1961, said:
"Your successes are unheralded -- your failures are
trumpeted. ... But I am sure you realize how important is
your work, how essential it is -- and in the long sweep of
history how significant your efforts will be judged. So I
do want to express my appreciation to you now, and I am
 Approved For Release 2006/07/25: CIA-R:DP80B01676R04 ; .0:0110004-3
confident that in the future you will continue to merit the
appreciation of our country, as you have in the past."
The American Legion, at its 42nd National Convention at Miami
Beach, Florida, on 18 October 1960, adopted the following resolution
on the Central Intelligence Agency:
"WHEREAS, the American military intelligence effort in the past
seven years has taken great strides toward fully apprising the
government of the United States of the true status of the mili-
tary strength of our communist enemies, and
"WHEREAS, the effect of this intelligence effort has been to
immeasurably strengthen the American military position and
prepare this nation to more effectively meet the communist
challenge, and
"WHEREAS, the continuance of this intelligence effort is an
absolute necessity in order to adequately protect. our nation
against the type of surprise attack characterized by the Pearl
Harbor incident,
"NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the American Legion in
National Convention assembled in Miami Beach, Florida,
October 17-20, 1960, urges the full continuation of the
American intelligence effort in every particular deemed
effective for the protection of our nation, and expresses
full confidence in the Central Intelligence Agency, for its
foresight in providing for the protection of our nation
against surprise attack by our enemies."

JOHN ALEX MCCONE
John Alex McCone, the sixth Director of Central Intelligence and the
fourth Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, was designated for
that position by President John P. Kennedy on 27 September 1961. He was
given a recess appointment and sworn into office on 29 November 1961, in
the White House, by the Chief Justice of the United States, Earl Warren.
On 15 January 1962 President Kennedy submitted the nomination of Mr. McCone
to the United States Senate. After a public hearing on 18 January 1962
he was unanimously approved by the Senate Armed Services Committee. On
31 January 1962 his appointment was confirmed by the United States Senate.
President Kennedy, at the swearing-in ceremony on 29 November 1961,
"I want to say what an honor it is and what a pleasure
it is to have Mr. McCone back in the national service.
"This appointment, ... that he was willing to take it,
indicates how important it is, and how important I feel it
is, as well as members of the Government and Members of
Congress believe it to be.
"He has not only the responsibility as Director of CIA,
but also coordinating the work of all the Intelligence
community, and I know that he will give his attention to both
these functions upon which so much of our security depends.
"We want to welcome you here and to say that you are
now living on the bull's eye, and I welcome you to that spot."
On 27 September 1961, at Newport, R. I., the President announced
that he would name Mr. McCone to succeed Mr. Allen W. Dulles as Director
of Central Intelligence and Chairman of the U.S. Intelligence Board. The
President said:

"We (the President and Mr. Dulles) are both extremely
pleased and satisfied that Mr. John McCone, who has served
his country in important positions of responsibility, as
Undersecretary of the Air Force in the administration of
President Truman, as Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission
in the administration of President Eisenhower, has agreed
to once more come and accept a position of high responsibility.
"He has had broad experience. Coming once again to
Washington represents a real sacrifice for him. I know that
all of us who are concerned with our present responsibilities
are extremely happy to have his counsel, extremely happy to
have him associated with us.
"He will come, in about two weeks, and work with Mr. Dulles,
and in November (1961) will assume the responsibility."

Mr. McCone's official service with the U.S. government dates from
the fall of 1947, when he was appointed by President Harry S. Truman as
a member of the President's Air Policy Commission, of which Thomas K.
Finletter was chairman. In that position Mr. McCone helped to formulate
the military-preparedness aspects of the Commission's report, "Survival
in the Air Age," issued on 1 January 1948. From March to November 1948
he served as Special Deputy to Secretary of Defense James V. Forrestal,
and handled the preparation of the first two budgets of the newly
established Department of Defense. In May 1950 he was appointed Under
Secretary of the Air Force, with special responsibilities for the
aircraft procurement program and the construction of overseas bases,
including the planning of the base complexes at Thule, Greenland, and
in North Africa. Upon his resignation in October 1951 to return to
private life, Mr. McCone was presented the Exceptional Civilian Service
Award, which cited him for his part in the doubling of American military
aircraft production during that critical year of the Korean War.
During President Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration Mr. McCone
served in a number of capacities. In 1954 he was a member of Secretary
of State Dulles's Public Committee on Personnel (the Wriston Committee),
which was concerned with increasing the effectiveness of the career
services of the Department of State, both in Washington and abroad. On
6 June 1958 President Eisenhower nominated him for a five-year term as
a member of the United States Atomic Energy Commission. The nomination
was approved by the U.S. Senate on 9 July, and on 14 July 1958 he took
office and was designated as Chairman of the Commission. He served until
- 18 -

the close of President Eisenhower's administration in January 1961, when
he resigned to return to private life.
Mr. McCone has participated in a number of civic, philanthropic,
and educational activities. He has been a director of the Stanford
Research Institute, a trustee of the California Institute of Technology,
and a regent of the Loyola University (Los Angeles), and he was one of
the founders and the first president of the Los Angeles World Affairs
Council, established in 1954. In 1955 Pope Pius XII made Mr. McCone a
Knight of St. Gregory, and in 1956 awarded him the Grand Cross of the
Order of St. Sylvester. In March 1956 Mr. McCone served as President
Eisenhower's Personal Representative to the Vatican at the Pope's 80th
birthday celebration, and in 1958, with Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles and Mrs. Clare Boothe Luce, he represented the President at the
funeral of Pope Pius XII.
Mr. McCone has honorary degrees from several universities including
the University of California, Notre Dame University, Fordhem University,
Clarkson College of Technology, and the Catholic University of America.

LIEUTENANT GENERAL MARSHALL SYLVESTER CARTER, U.S. ARMY
Marshall Sylvester Carter, Lieutenant General, United States Army,
became the Deputy Director of Central Intelligence on 3 April 1962.
On 9 March 1962 the White House announced that President John F.
Kennedy had selected General Carter to be Deputy Director of Central
Intelligence, on the recommendation of Mr. McCone, the Director. On
12 March 1962 the President submitted General Carter's nomination, with
the rank of Lieutenant General, to the United States Senate for

Suggested Comments for Clandestine Services
Review Course, 1400, 9 October 1963
1. In general when giving the final talk to the Clandestine
Services Review Course, I have couched it in broad terms as far as the
future of the Agency and of the career service is concerned. I have not
had a question period, so for your purposes I would think perhaps a few
generalities, either before or after a question period, would be appropriate.
2. I would suggest that you briefly touch on the following subjects:
a. The continued necessity for all employees to
develop increased professionalism, both through training and experience.
b. The fact that competition for promotion will become
increasingly intense.
c. The fact that the Agency will continue to attempt
to select out those who drop by the wayside or are less competent.
d. The fact that we should recognize that there will be
continued pressures for the Agency to do more but that we should not
expect additional money or manpower.
e. The absolute necessity for personnel security.
f. The fact that the Agency is going to look more and
more to supervisors to be good managers.
g. The fact that the Agency offers the best career
possibilities in the U. S. Government to those who are deserving.

SUBJECT : Address to Students in Clandestine Services
Review Course
1. The Clandestine Services Review Course, which you addressed
on three previous occasions, is scheduled for the period 30 September
through 9 October 1963. It would be very much appreciated if you
would again deliver the opening address on Monday, 30 September. The
class will be conducted in Room IA-13, Headquarters Building, and for
scheduling purposes we have allocated the period from 0930 to 1000
hours for your presentation. If that time is not convenient to you,
we will be glad to make an adjustment.
2. This course is conducted primarily for Clandestine Services
officers who have recently returned from overseas tours. When you
previously addressed similar groups, you spoke for approximately
twenty minutes and allowed the balance of the time for a question
and answer period. That worked out very successfully on previous
occasions. Please feel free to select a subject of your choice, for
the schedule will simply list "Opening Address." However, since the
majority of students will be field returnees, I submit the following
for consideration:
a. The new look in CIA regarding organization, policy and
personnel handling under Mr. McCone's and your leadership.
be The relationship and standing of CIA with the President
and the National Security Council..
c. The relationship and standing of CIA with other members
of the U.S. Intelligence Community and particularly DIA.
d. Are any major organizational changes planned or contem-
plated?

your busy schedule to net with this group. If so, I shall come
to your office immediately before 0930 hours on 30 September to
escort you to the classroom.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director (Intelligence)
SUBJECT Report on DDS&T Meeting in the Auditorium
on 6 August
1. The meeting was opened by Gen. Carter who explained
the background of the decision to create the DDS&T and mentioned
the principal personnel and organizational changes resulting
therefrom. The General said parenthetically that in his 16
months with the Agency he had noticed a tremendous reluctance
to change things. However, he felt that there were now com-
pelling reasons to make the aforementioned change. In particular
he cited the tremendous need today to strengthen the Agency's
scientific and technical approach to problems to insure that
the Agency retained its lead in this field. The General
listed the five principal assets of the new Directorate--OSI,
OSA, ORD, O/ELINT and Office of Computer Services. He commented
that the potential of these offices was tremendous and that
it was now desirable to have them pulled together. Reasons
for this were to:
a. insure the professional strength of all
S&T assets, to enlarge the S&T environment, and
to expand and sharpen skills;

b. facilitate long range career development
of the professional S&T service and to develop this
in the analytical as well as experimental parts of
the business; and
c. to attract and retain the highest S&T
skills and to develop a technical "surge tank"
to facilitate shifting assets to meet unexpected
demands.
2. The General announced that Dr. Wheelon would head the
new Directorate. His new deputy would be Col. Giller and his
executive officer would be Jack Blake of DDS. The General
said that any change is painful, particularly to those who
will lodse an organizational member. He said that many pros
and cons could be argued, and that his decision has taken
considerable soul searching, compassionate understanding, and
an effort to avoid misunderstanding. His only course, now
that the decision has been taken, is to ask everyone to try
to make the new organization work and to improve it. The
General then introduced Dr. Wheelon.
3. Dr. Wheelon said that the time for discussion was now
over, that a decision had been made and that the thing to do
was to get organized and tackle the problems ahead. During
the last month he had been much aware of the many rumors which

had produced a period of instability. He wished now to
shut off speculation by saying that he did not contemplate
any major reorganization in DDS&T, nor did he plan any
personnel changes for the foreseeable future except to fill
vacancies.
4. Dr. Wheelon then discussed how the major components
would fit together to meet desired goals. He discussed his
five offices in turn as follows:
Office of Scientific Intelligence
5. He cited rumors that the analytical functions would
be sacrificed to the collection effort and vice versa. He
said that no such choice had been made, and that OSI would
function as before. He mentioned 5 principal ways in which
OSI contributed the Agency's analytical effort:
a. contributions to ONE;
b. contributions to OCI publications;
c. OSI's own publications (Scientific Intelligence
Digest);
d. OSI memoranda;
e. contributions to "demand response" papers
(for the DCI and White House) which require broad
coordination.
6. Dr. Wheelon said that OSI would continue as before
to contribute to the Agency's production effort with respect
to a,, b., and d.; with respect to c., he hoped to continue

 Approved For Rel e 2006/07/2!t~-iAP80B01676R0 400110004-3
the SID while trying to make it more professional and to
widen its distribution. With respect to e., Dr. Wheelon
hoped that OSI would continue to participate in preparation
of DDI all-source and all-skill papers and that OSI would
continue to be represented in DDI coordination panels.
Dr. Wheelon reiterated that there would be no real change
in OSI's support to the DDI, to the USIB committees, and
to the intelligence community.
7. Dr. Wheelon took note of some anxiety that OSI's
separation from the Intelligence Directorate would somehow
reduce its contribution to that Directorate. He wanted to
pledge, however, that OSI would supply even better contributions
than in the past. Dr. Wheelon then explained his two most
important points:
a. He did not intend to have to resolve
coordination problems with Ray Cline. He
expected that this would be done on the working
level. (This was stated constructively, as an
instruction to his people to show good sense
and settle their problems on the working level.)
b. He did not intend to establish report-
ing channels which competed with the DDI.
 Approved For Rel e 2006/07/ - _4DP80B01676R 400110004-3
Office of Computer Services
8. This new office will pull together Agency computer
talent and researchers, with the exception of the NPIC
programs. The skills involved in operating
computers, principally mathematics and electrical engineer-
ing, are similar to other S&T skills. People using computers
as large slide rules for research should be very close to
the computer operations. Dr. Wheelon felt that this was a
natural location for the Agency computer assets, that they
could make a great contribution, and that centralization of
this function helps avoid competing against ourselves. He
concluded by saying that in discharging DDS&T's responsibility
to other parts of the Agency, it is OCS's obligation to do a
first rate job.
Office of Research and Development (ORD)
9. This is a small organization which will be built
slowly and solidly to support other offices.
Office of ELINT
10. Dr. Wheelon says this is in good shape and that it
is clear what it has to do. He senses that with the erosion
of the US overseas position, it will be necessary to shift
increasingly from overt to covert ELINT collection. He says
O/ELINT's business base is expanding accordingly, and he
AnnrnvPC1 Fnr R?I?asP 2 lfAIl7/25 ? C',IA=RnPRORl1A7ARnf1401)11nf04-:3
 Approved For Rel e 2006/07/25: PRR IR 0B01676R 400110004-3
feels that it is important to be ready and able to meet
growing Community needs and to develop new equipment.
Office of Special Activities
11. Dr. Wheelon sensed a certain uneasiness regarding
the future, particularly as a result of opinions expressed
by senior military officers in the Pentagon. Dr. Wheelon
said that the Agency has shown that it can make a very
significant contribution in adopting new programs and develop-
ing workable systems, and he feels that CIA should continue
to play a significant role in the national reconnaissance
program.
12. Speaking generally now, Dr. Wheelon explained that
his approach to a problem was to invite frank discussions
with interested parties before a decision was made, but that
once a decision had been made by him he expected that every-
one would help to make it work. If anyone thinks the wrong
decision had been made he had the right of appeal to
Dr. Wheelon, and he invites such appeals.
13. This was the end of Dr. Wheelon's statement and he
then invited questions from the floor. The first question
related to what working hours would be. Dr. Wheelon said
that the Agency tries to do more then it comfortably can.
He feels overworked himself. He thinks, however, that we
 Approved For Rel,e 2006/071 , .QJ4,.g DP80B01676R 400110004-3
should be willing to ask if we are really strengthening
ourselves for the long term by being overworked for a short
term. He thought that we should occasionally have the
courage to ask management to make a decision on this question.
14. The second question related to S&T assets of TSD.
Dr. Wheelon said that most of these people were really not
very scientific, contrary to the popular impression. There
was a small group, however, engaged in advanced engineering
projects, but it was even more operationally orientated than
OSA. He said he really didn't know much about TSD, implying
that its relationship to DDS&T had not been seriously con-
sidered up to that time. He commented, however, that he had
the impression that TSD was not looking as far ahead as TSD and
DDP would like, and said that it was really ORD's job to back-
stop TSD in this respect.
15. The third question related to the leadership of the
five offices of DDS&T. Dr. Wheelon said that Col. Ledford
would continue to head OSA with Jim Cunningham as his deputy;
the Office of ELINT would continue to be headed by George
Miller and with Col. Nelson as his deputy; ORD would be headed
by Col. Giller (also A/DDS&T). With respect to OSI, Dr. Wheelon
commented that both he
another job and
had left the OSI for
would be holding the bag for
25X1
 Approved For Rel e 2006/07/25: CIA-RDP80B01676R~400110004-3
awhile." With respect to the Office of Computer Services,
"Joe Becker would continue to play a large part." Dr. Wheelon
added that this was the situation tentatively, and that these
details had not had careful thought. He urged everyone to
cease speculation and get back to work.
16. Gen. Carter then reappeared on the stage and said
that some of the questions confirmed his concern that compart-
mentation is neither a desirable or necessary evil. He wanted
to say that it was now essential to block compartmentation
when it inhibited successful completion of a task. (ie was not
questioning compartmentation to protect clandestine sources.)
The General said he could see no sense in a man not offering
to assist the fellow next door just because he belonged to
another part of the organization. He said that the Agency was
a young organization with outstanding people, but that it
could fall apart if its people could not present an Agency
position when they were dealing with problems outside of the
Agency.
17. Referring to the question of working hours, the
General said that he could assure everyone that working hours
would be no fewer. If complaints about working hours were
to be taken to management they should be addressed to Dr. Wheelon,
because for his (DDCI) part he had great difficulty in solving
 Approved For Rel e 2006/07/2 ;, j P80BO1676R*400110004-3
this problem. In connection with the long working hours, the
General wanted to stress the outstanding reputation of the
Agency for being able to deliver the goods rapidly. He gave
assurance that the Agency's flexibility of response was
unsurpassed, and that at the highest level of government the
Agency position is treated with the greatest respect. He
urged that everyone "work like dogs" to protect and enhance
this reputation.
18. He then remarked that some day a show would be put
on regarding professionalism in the Agency. He said that
60% of the top 600 people in the Agency hold Master's degrees
or higher honors. He said that over 600 people in the Agency
were fluent in Russian, and that 5 Agency members could speak
Swahili. He said that no other Agency could match this.
 SeQQ6IQ7I25',:.C,I,RDP80B016
I am Lt. General Carter, the Deputy Director and it so happens for
the next week or ten days, the Acting Director. I wanted to talk to you
all this afternoon for a short time because we are about to undergo some
changes in the, organizational field and in my sixteen months here at the
pic4tel ;pickle factory I have n ed a tremendous reluctance to change so it
seemed only fitting and perhaps timely for you to take a look at the character
who is introducing a change and for me to tell you some of the reasoning
behind that change. I do not have to beat the drum, I hope, on the great
1,4
intensification in the intelligence community ems' the scientific and tecbnicalogical
approach to the intelligence problem. I think we in the Agency are ahead of
other contributors to the intelligence community and I think it is mandatory
o do everything in our lpower to stay ahead. The importance of the scientific .
inputs to the national intelligence effort I do not have to explain to you. But,
I think it is timely to tell you of the assets that Mr. McCone and I have considered
as being immediately available in the community, or as you were,. in the Agency
for direct application to scientific intelligence both in the collection an in the
analysis of intelligence and we have over the last fourteen months been trying to
develop methods of strengthening the Agency input to this national effort in the
scientific field. If I may interrupt here a minute, I am going to speak for about
ten minutes and there will be a speaker after me so I suggest Don that you and the
rest of the boys who either came in late or trying to get out early, help yourself
to a seat. Our4Q.e.iblle assets in the intelligence field have been five. OSI'on
 the analysis end of the b; siness; the Office of ELINT which is as you know
is becoming so much more important every day to our scientific and technical
intelligence and also in carrying out a part of CIA's responsibility in the
National Reconnaissance Plan and the National ELINT Plan. OSA, which is
carrying CIA's responsibility in the National Reconnaissance Program and
which has had a very remarkable and distringuished record. I don't. know
whether you know it or not and I repeat it because I have heard it from high
ranking people in the Department of Defense that had it not been for the Agency
we would not have had a U-2 and certainly'bad it not been for the U-2 we would
not have had to revise our National Intelligence Estimates. This keeps you
occupied periodically. So, it has been very he8pful in keeping us in business
and in revising the national intelligence posture. They have done a very
remarkable job and I see a tremendous future in the OSA. ORD has a long
way to go but no limits to its expansion capabilities. The basic rearch for all
of these operational divisions, as well as other Agency componentsrto my mind
Jr
has no limits; and, finally - our computing activities, J especially scientific
computing and analysis plus the technical selection of new systems ' 'M and more
effective ways of improving the systems that weij presently have in use. There
is a large i*Ic{ut/ amount of R&D still left in this field. Now looking over these
assets and on the basis of the last year and a half of watdhing these assets operate,
Mr. McCone and I have felt it is now desirable to pull them all together and for
 several reasons. One important one was to insure a professional coupling
of all of the scientific and technical assets that we had to enlarge the scientific
and technical environment particularly so that we can sharpen our skills and
keep them sharp,to facilitate the true honest long range development of a
scientific and technical career service,and to have a high degree of flexibility
in our experimental as well as analytical side of the business.
It will facilitate also the common use of consultants particularly OSA 'and
'X.
OSI. It will provide tyre lode stone or a nucleus for I hope attracting and retaining
the highest scientific and technical skills, and having a very mediocre education
in hydraulic engineering.I must say that it gives us a technical surge tank in
wh;ch we can shift assets to meet problems which arise quickly and uxpectedly;
and finally and I think this is extremely important, it will insure because of the
multiplicity of organizations that will be within this new directorate, it will
insure a very close tie-in between foreign systems and our own systems. In
other words we are creating a great mass of technical know-how to combine with
the high speed that we are presently under t// and the high degree of .exibility
which we are privileged to have in the Agency through our most unusual unique
legislative authorities. We have chosen Dr. Albert Wheelon to be the Deputy
Directorate for Science and Technology. 4 have changed the name also from
DDR to DDS&T, only a little less euphonic but I think much more explanatory of
your functions. Colonel Giller.;will remain as Deputy and Jack Blake of DDS
will provide the substantial support and operational facility required to be the
 Executive Officer to arrange space, this is building space, for your 1romotions,
to arrange for all of the manifold operations required to run a Directorate of this
size both management wise and administratively and I hope he will do that not
only effectively but quickly. Now, the Directives were signed last night and
these Directives appoint Dr. Wheelon, Mr. Blake - Dr. Wheelon will also take.
my position as Chairman of the Research and Development Review Board of
the Agency to change the name from Research to Science and Technology,to
transfer the Office of Scientific Intelligence to DDS&T, to rename the Automatic
Data Computer Staff to be the ;Office of Computer Services and transfer that
to the DDS&T. Now any reorganization or any shift of personnel from one
Agency to another is painful. It is painful to the d people who are losting a
member . 1t is must a mild amputation, Itr ? a complete separation. There are
many many pros and cons and we can argue these pros and cons 16 , /dri / backward;
and forwards as iiihie/E/r/ /,bk/ I have been doing, as I am sure many of you have
been doing for the past sixteen months. The point I want to make is that it has
taken a great deal of researching, a high degree of compassionate understanding,
an equally high degree of hk"i t4q argumentative misunderstanding to
develop all the pros and aons to the point where the decision has been taken.
Consequently, my only recourse now is to ask each of you to do everyinthing you
possibly can to insure that this organization not only work; that you make it work,
and that you improve our ovdrall system. This is our one idea - to make it work
to the best interest of the Agency and inevitably if it works to the best interest of
the Agency it is bound to work to the best interest of each of us and all of us.
 I would like Dr. Wheelon to step up here so that you will see what he looks like
and to expand somewhat; oft -.err on my views and indicate exsctlyl how he intends,

6. In another sense, retention, by each of you, of your military status,
enhances your usefulness to the Agency in peacetime. Some of you have filled
duty assignments in military status overseas. Each of you, has performed active
duty assignments with your respective services. These experiences are important
in presenting to the Armed Forces an impression of the Agency on the one hand,
o, on you, on the eu other, an understanding of the military viewpoint and
and have given y
of interagency relationships. Such associations can be mutually beneficial in
all cases where we contribute to a better understanding of our separate ways of
reaching common goals.
7. The question of your actual mobilization assignment in an emergency or
solved
contingency situation will be re-/ primarily on the basis of your professional
qualifications to fill a given position. The factor of cover, and the relative
importance of the manpower requirements within the various components in the
Agency must also be considered. Some of you may be mobilized in military
status and detailed to yourcurrent position if it requires military status in an
emergency, if it does not and you are needed in your current position you may not
be mobilized at all. Others may be mobilized to fill military positions in
components of the Agency other than that to which they are assigned at the time of
emergency to the extent that they are professionally qualified for such positions,
and acceptable to the head of the component concerned.
8. On the ~ractic lsde? each rofrou stands to benefit materially b
retainin our reserve status. You become eligible for certain retirement benefits
after you have put in your 20 years of military service. For many of you, 196 is
the critical yearAome of you may wonder if it is still important for you to partici-
pate in the reserve program. The decision is yours to make. As things now stand,
no one can- say with certainty that the military reserve status of any one of you in
and of itself is as important as your other qualifications to serve the Agency now or
for the foreseeable future, or that your reserve status is an essential factor in
your value to the Agency. In fact the majority of the Agency's manpower has no
current military status at all. Does this mean that continuation in the Agency reserve
program is unimportant? The answer is obviously NO.

9. If you wish to retain your reserve status you should be prepared to
in the reserve ro ram and meet its requirements for your continued
status in it. Unless you are prepared to contribute to the program you will neither
benefit from it, nor will the Agency meet its objectives in supporting it.
10. The fact that you do have military status, and can be mobilized gives the
Agency a measure of flexibility in meeting a situation in which sudden militarization
of some Agency knowledge and experience is in the best interests of the United States.
The maintenance of this program within the Agency is the best means of being pre -
pared to meet such requirements and has been useful to us in Southeast Asia and
elsewhere, even though it has involved relatively small numbers of persons.
11. There are certain factors inherent in the curr
ent reserve organization and
first, that
roue now a omt command and this is im ortant since-more often than not, the
ma or CIA Head rters will alwa s be ad acent to a joint military command; and
second, the fact that you have organized on a regional basis can place the kind of
emphasis on the major geographical areas of the world which not only gives focus
to the subjects you are concerned with, but will make your mobilization assign-
meet easier to resolve. Third, the Agency has benefited in the past from efforts
of your reserve organization in developing ideas and concepts of Agency participation
with the military under various conditions of nuclear and limited war and contingency
situations. It is hoped this effort will be continued because frequently all of us in
our day to day work are so busy that it is sometimes difficult for us to take these
forward looks in the future and make meaningful conclusions about what we should do.
12. I have heard that some of you from DD/I and DD/S have expressed concern
that you will have very little competence to contribute to the work of the DD/P in
mobilized status. Let me assure you that the DD/.P effort can be greatly enhanced
by close working relationships with DD/I, particularly since operations will always
benefit by exercise of the intelligence function, in both the planning and action phases.

Similarly, DD/S personnel are better able to provide support to operations vh ere
their knowledge and understanding of these operations are more than superficial.
In reviewing your training program, there is apparent another by-product which
may have nothing to do with mobilization, but vhich, seems to make you more
aware and knowledgeable through your participation in it of the current problems
the Agency faces in meeting its responsibilities for counterinsurgency operations
or what are now called overseas internal defense operations. Even though'you may
never be mobilized in military status, your participation in this program will
undoubtedly enhance your usefulness to the Agency in the performance of your
daily tasks.
I am pleased to note that your current organization and concept of
training has received official approval of the Department of Defense. It will continue
to have the support of the Agency.
