QUARTERLY SUPPLEMENT
(Effective 3 January 1966)
FOREWORD
DCID No. 1/3, revised annually, is intended to serve as a stable
basis for long-term intelligence planning by identifying critical
intelligence problems deemed likely to persist over a period of five
years or so. Such guidance must necessarily be expressed in relatively
broad terms.
The purpose of this Quarterly Supplement is to provide more current
and specific guidance within the context of DCID No. 1/3, by calling
attention to situations which, within the next six months or so, may require
some adjustment of present intelligence attention and coverage.. The
Supplement is intended to guide short-term intelligence planning by anti-
cipating changes in specific situations which may justify either some
Note: This Foreword is unchanged from that of the last Quarterly
Supplement. In the numbered items of this present document,
however, strict interpretation is made of the Quarterly
Supplement's purpose. Thus the present document does not

does not mean, of course, that items deleted do not still
deserve high priority attention, as provided for in DCID No. 1/3.

reduction.. or some augmentation of effort. This Supplement excludes
situations or questions which are already explicitly listed in DCID No.
1/ 3 as being of high priority. It supersedes- all previous Quarterly
Supplements.
It is not the function of this Supplement to present a complete listing
of all matters of intelligence interest. Like DCID No. 1/3 itself, the
Supplement presupposes that the bulk of the intelligence required for the
formulation and execution of national. security policy will be the product
of normal coverage pursuant to DCII) No. 1/2.
This Supplement will be superseded by another in March. 1966.
