Dear Mr. Chairman:
13 JUN 1977
Thank you for sending a copy of the Committee
report on the National Intelligence Estimates process
as reflected in the NIE Team B experiment, under
cover of your 24 May letter,
I believe that your Committee's comments
and insights regarding this effort will be most helpful
to our analysts in developing estimates which are
both accurate and responsive to the needs of the
users. I can assure you that we are giving them
very careful consideration.
I am particularly gratified by the cooperative
spirit displayed by the Committee in permitting us to
comment on the draft report and in its consideration
of our suggestions.
Yours,

Bob Bowie,
I thought that you would find the attached
letter from the President to Senator Inouye
to be of some interest. I have not provided
a copy of this to Stan Turner but feel free
to do so if you think he might be interested
in it as well. I would not be surprised if
the President raised it with him in the near
future.
