SUBJECT : Policy Guidance ior Preparation and Review of
Fiscal Year 1966 Budget
REFERENCE:
i. During FY 1964 the Agency has taken a number of important
steps in complying with the President's admonitions for economy and
efficiency. No vital operations have been impaired, productivity has
been improved, and the over-all on-duty strength reduced. In E-Y 1964
there has also been considerable reprogramming in the Agency, both
within and among Directorates, and some elimination of marginal
programs in order to accommodate new higher priority efforts. With
the requirement to submit the Agency's FY 1966 budget, there is pro-
vided a further opportunity to take the kind of hard program look
requested by the President.
2. Within the next few days the Offices ox your Directorate
will be called upon to prepare their YY 1966 budget estimates. It is the
Director's wish that each Deputy Director and Office Head personally
review these submissions with the 'utmost care to insure that they represent
a sound allocation of resources against highest priority objectives.
3. The Director has instructed that the budget reflect a decline
50X9 in over-all Agency personnel strength to 1.)y June 1965. Within the
Agency_total, the personnel ceiling for the DDJS will be 'n FY 1965
and n FY 1966. The personnel ceilings include positions for
the Career Officer Training Program and propose no change in communi-
cations support levels. These two ceilings are not to be reduced in

adjusting the position allocations within year Iiirectorate'e new ceilings.
Requirements for additional ceiling to meet an expanded role in the
National Communications System will bit provided for if pending proposals
are approved. Dollar tareet ceilings to accommodate your programs
for FY 1966 are Dollar ceilings for the FY 1965 'inancial
Plan are now under review in the Office of Budget, Program Analysis anti
Manpower. However, prior to the issuance of allocations it will be
necessary to provide BP.A.P.L by 15 July with the new office break-out
of your Directorate's FY 1965 manpower ceiling.
4. The achievement of these goals will require all of us to
demonstrate our management ingenuity in reshaping and reassigning
current assets to meet future demands as we see them. New priority
programs must go forward and other less important ones dropped.
Deputy Directors and Office Heads, in concert with my office, will be
expected to reprogram and effect reorganisations as necessary to
accomplish the FY 1965 and FY 1966 objectives.
