ME IO;ZANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: Harry E. Fitzwater
Deputy Director for Administration
SUBJECT: DCI Address
1. The latest version of your speech for employees is much better
than the version you gave me on Friday. I do have some nit-picks which
are at the paperclips. First, the second sentence of the second paragraph
may be shortened to improve its impact. Second, page 4, first line, do you
really mean "armor heavy"? Third, page 7, middle of the page please add
"support" to the specialties otherwise you will have a fourth of the
employees unhappy that their discipline was not included. You place
emphasis on the analytical, operational, and technical areas but they
would not get far without the support given them by highly capable people
in this Directorate.
2. This morning I gave you my comments on Friday's draft. It appears
that you have taken care of my major concerns in your latest draft.
3. I fully support the last four pages and the direction you are heading.
I do caution that we do not have the flexibility that industry has, that we are
tied to the rest of the government by a bureaucratic umbilical cord, and that
it is difficult to turn past practices around. This is not to imply in any way
that we should not try, and I am behind you and your proposed program 100%.
4. Don't cut the speech--you have the Auditorium for an hour or more if
you desire.
