Deputy Director's Staff Meeting
Wednesday, 31 January 1951
Mr. Reber discussed psychological warfare and said that the
services were not too happy about State taking over research support
for psychological warfare intelligence. Mr. Jackson informed him
that the IAC had been told about the reorganization and suggested that
he conduct information discussions with the JIC.
Mr. reported that he had discussed the transfer
of personnel from State to 0/PC with Mr. Howe, and that there seemed
to be some confusion as to whether it was a CIA request or an 0/PC
request. Mr. Jackson suggested that a conference be held with
Mr. 0 on this subject.
Mr. Jackson inquired as to the status of NSC-29. It was
reported that Mr. Reber had been holding conversations with the
Department of State and would have recommendations prepared at an
early date.
Mr. pointed out that under NSC-282 CIA had
been requested to prepare a study on economic intelligence and that
this had not yet been completed. He said that Dr. Millikan was
advised of the situation and was exerting pressure to get it finished.
There was mention of the visit of General Donovan on
1 February, and the desire of the Director that he be briefed by the
pertinent Assistant Directors.
