roposed Revisions to Guidelines
During the 1950-54 period the Office of the Special Assistant -
Intelligence (R) and its subordinate components produced a great number of
reports and other material. Many of the formal reports of the Office of
Intelligence Research (OIR) were labeled "intelligence reports" or
"intelligence research reports," as opposed to "policy' reports, in order
that "R" could express its independent judgment and conclusions without
having to clear its reports with the substantive bureaus. Some of the
"intelligence reports" produced by OIR referred to or included information
that originated from the intelligence activities of other agencies or
foreign governments. However, other "intelligence reports" of OIR merely
reflected the analysis and judgment of the OIR analysts based solely on
public knowledge and Foreign Service reporting. The reports during this
period carried no special indicators which might warn of the use of
sensitive intelligence information including that which was obtained from
other agencies or foreign governments.
INDICATORS OF INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION
The following terms, symbols, or types of documents usually indicate
the presence of intelligence information in a document. Documents in
category la below (consisting mainly of reports by the Office of
Intelligence Research in "R") should be carefully reviewed but should be
referred to the Department of State for further review only if they
contain indicators listed in category 2 or information listed under
Categories of Intelligence Information. Documents containing one or more
of the indicators in category 2 require further review by the Department
of State.
1. Indicators Not Requiring Automatic Review by Department of State
a. Documents produced by INR's predecessor (Special Assistant -
Intelligence (R)) and its subsidiary offices and divisions,
especially the Office of Intelligence Research (OIR).
(See the last paragraph of the Introduction.)
2. Indicators Requiring Further Review by the Department of State
a. Documents or information which are clearly labeled
"Intelligence" (except for item la. above) or which
refer specifically to covert, clandestine, or
intelligence activities, sources, or methods as
described below under Categories of Intelligence
Information.
b. Documents or information generated by intelligence
organizations of the U.S. (excluding item la. above
or foreign governments.

Subject Guidelines for the Review of
Department of State Intelligence Information, 1950-1954
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of these subject guidelines is to aid in the
identification of indicators and categories of information on
intelligence activities, sources and methods which should be
referred to the Department of State for further review; however,
these guidelines provide no authority to declassify any
information. The guidelines cover all intelligence information
of whatever origin found in records of the Department of State
for the period 1950-1954 as well as intelligence information
generated by the Department of State which may be found in the
records of other government agencies or departments. If there is
any question as to whether a document contains information
falling within these guidelines, the document should be referred
to the Department of State for review. (U)
These guidelines are to be applied in the context of the
"Guidelines for Systematic Review of Department of State Records
Dated 1950-54" and of any other pertinent country or subject
guideline for that period. An intelligence-related document
usually needs to be reviewed also in the light of other subject
or country guidelines. (U)
During World War II the United States built up a large
foreign intelligence program, of which the Office of Strategic
Services (OSS) handled most of the overall coordination and
analysis. With the end of the war two important branches of the
OSS were transferred to the Department of State by Executive
Order effective October 1, 1945 with the aim of making State the
chief intelligence coordinator of the U.S. Government. In
January, 1946 however, State lost its interdepartmental
intelligenc coordinating role, and a much smaller departmental
organization was established under a Special Assistant for
Research and Intelligence (its symbol was SA-MC: SA for Special
Assistant, ?and MC for Alfred McCormack who held the position).
In 1947 the intelligence unit was strengthened again, and in 1948
W. Park Armstrong, Jr., was named Special Assistant for Research
and Intelligence with the organizational symbol of "R". From
1950 through 1956 the organization of the unit was as follows:

2. The Panel Was employed to advise the Department on the work
of the United Nations Disarmament OommIssion, speclAcally with respect
to developing a comerehensive report for armed forces and nonp-atomic
amaments comparable to the United Nations atomic energy plan.
3. !Cu met with the Panel on kpril 28, 1952 and sugeested various
lines of approach which the Panel might wish to take. You indicated
thrt the Panel might want to look at our current armaments proi,yam to
ree where it is heeded enc.' whet alternative roaem might be open to Us.
I. The Panel met once eore in tht Department on May 6 for general
discussion and the only official contact we have had with them since
that time has involved one visit to Mr. Nickerson by Dr. Oppenheimer,
aside from the continuing lieison on general arranemnnt:-,
and no forth, which we have had with Mcleorge Bundy, the Panel's
Secretary.
5. The lack of contact has been based on the Panel's with to
conduct its deliberations without involvement in Areteeday Depart-
mental operations and in an atmosphere of fairly unlimited inquiry.
We made no attempt to disoomrage this but have tried to keep the

of the developments as thew ars taking plass in the Melted Nations and
of the factors from our standpoint (such as the Seventh United Nations
General Assembly) which might affect the timing of their findtngs,
In this connection we have excluded the possibility Of eventing on

We have boon expecting a report of their worl: but until we knew what their
conclusions are we oannot advise as to the natur.2 end We of the report.
With r:Tard to th3 problem of prese leaks, aur major ?omen: is that there
