Production during FY 1959 brought to 4,754 the total of sections, including 722 on Maintenance, produced during the eleven years of the NIS program. This repre- sents 76% of initial world-wide basic intelligence coverage of which the JCS highest priority areas are essentially complete and under active Maintenance. Production during the year was seriously affected by manpower reductions and diversions in the contributing agencies. Scheduling was not met during most of FY 1959 and one-third of the year's total was produced in the final month. The total of 493 sections for the year approximated the JCS annual requirement. 2. The prime concern of the NIS Committee this year as for several years past has been the problem of providing an adequate revision base for more than 4,000 published sections at a time when over-all NIS production in the contributing agencies is being seriously affected by reductions in manpower and diversions of effort to crash and other departmental projects. 3. Directly bearing on the continuing examination of Maintenance and the over-all development of the NIS program was the March 1959 CINCNELM report on use of the NIS in connection with the 1958 Lebanon crisis. Based on extensive comments from the principal U.S. Commands involved, the CINCNELM report confirmed the value of the full spectrum of NIS content coverage and the importance of the on-hand availability of the NIS Sanitized - Approved FerAttregglettOlatte62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved For Release: CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 CONFIDENTIAL at time of emergency. The report stated that the NIS was widely used by all Commands, and, for COMSIXTHFLT, constituted the most important single source of both general and detailed basic intelligence on Middle East and Mediterranean areas. The report specifically com- mented on lack of adequate Maintenance and suggested that in general the NIS be comprehensively maintained at intervals not exceeding five years. 4. To provide a basis for concerted action on the Maintenance problem, the Office of Basic Intelligence prepared a staff study which pointed out that existing capabilities of the contributing agencies could not con- currently support both completion of initial world coverage and comprehensive Maintenance production on an acceptably timely basis. The study concluded that more timely Main-1 tenance will as a minimum require sustained contributor effort at the full JCS annual level of 8 equivalent NIS, as well as selective scheduling in terms of Maintenance priorities in areas and topics. At the close of the fiscal year the member agencies were in the process of pro- viding the NIS Committee with their respective proposals for implementing this program for selective Maintenance. These proposals will be incorporated in revisions of the tentative NIS production schedule for FY 1960 and the NIS forecast schedule through FY 1962. 5. The program for selective Maintenance is being undertaken as an interim measure with full awareness of its effect on accomplishing the NIS mission of providing comprehensive, world-wide basic intelligence coverage. Initial coverage will be nominal or incomplete on many segments of Latin America and Africa. Maintenance will be deferred on many basic topical sections on areas of high JCS priority. There is concern as to possible related loss of the existing impetus for comprehensive collection and research generated by the NIS program. CONFIDENTIAL Sanitized - Approved For Release: CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved F60:1011FiAtItAIRtif'62-00680R000200140001-1 These measures for selective Maintenance will, however, provide an adequate Maintenance cycle for a substantial number of priority areas and topics. Moreover, many published NIS units of lesser Maintenance priority will continue to provide users with basic intelligence of value even if revision is deferred. 6. In view of the basic importance of sustained contributor production, it is disturbing to note that both the Army and the Navy have already announced shortfalls of some magnitude in their scheduled NIS production for FY 1960. The effectiveness of the selective Maintenance measures clearly will require full contributor support at the committed annual rate of 8 equivalent NIS. 7. Throughout FY 1959 the NIS Committee devoted considerable attention to refining NIS requirements. Those for Chapter VII (Scientific Intelligence) and for the NIS on Ocean Areas were completely revised to Maintenance standards as were a number of topical requirements in other NIS chapters. The extensive requirements for Supplement V (Petroleum Intelligence) were abandoned in favor of better integrated selective requirements in the Fuels and Power section of the Economic chapter. The Committee was reluctant to further modify other fundamental NIS requirements which have been so substantially supported by world- wide user surveys and comments from departmental and field activities. 8. In large measure FY 1959 was characterized by constructive support of all participating agencies in furthering the fundamental objectives of the NIS program. The quality of basic intelligence has shown gratifying improvement with more effective widespread field collection response to intelligence deficiencies revealed in initial NIS production. Review procedures have shown some improvement, but are still too cumbersome and time-consuming. Balanced production in consonance with approved schedules, particularly in the case of State, is mandatory for efficient NIS operations. - 3 - Sanitized - Approved For RExtelasel:1OTXRDP62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 CONFIDENTIAL ANNEX Annual Report of the NIS Program Fiscal Year 1 9 5 9 CONFIDENTIAL Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 CONFIDENTIAL N I S COMMENDATIONS On 14 July 1959, the NIS Committee approved the second annual list of awards under the NIS Commendation program established by MS Memo No. 6.

The FY 1959 Schedule called for production of 524 sections. This schedule represented a decrease from the production goal of 561 sections in FY 1958. 2. The record of production achievement in F Y 1 9 5 9 grouped by major contributing agencies was as follows: Sections Scheduled Sections Delivered Defection or Excess Percent Fulfillment State Agriculture Interior 186 9 47 171 7 35 - 15 - 2 - 12 92% 78 74 State (Total) 242 213 - 29 88% Army 115 117 IC 2 102 Navy 41 38 - 3 93 Air Force 25 25 0 100 CIA 89 88 - 1 99 Total: 512 481 - 31 94% Annuals 12 12 0 100% Grand Total: 524 493 - 31 94% - 6 - Sanitized - Approved For RetDalteretAERDP62,00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved FT ggilsaisi9 i94-FRE62-00680R000200140001 -1 3. The total of 493 sections delivered essentially fulfilled the JCS annual requirement and amounted to 94% completion of scheduled commitments. While this percentage attainment was identical to that of FY 1958, production in FY 1959 was 35 sections less than in FY 1958 because of lighter scheduling. Tab A illustrates the major production problem still confronting the NIS pro gr am throughout FY 1959: failure to adhere to established monthly schedules with a resultant end-of-the-year production peak. State and Air Force delivered 40% and Navy 37% of their total yearls pro-. duction in the month of June alone. In light of the FY 1959 production record, renewed emphasis is being given to the need for strengthened scheduling and for effective adherence to the approved schedule. 4. Since July 1954, a total of 40 Chapters I (Brief) has been produced. These comprehensive basic intelligence summaries continue to be widely used throughout the government, particularly at the higher policy, planning, and operational levels. NIS Annuals further extend the usefulness of Chapters I by providing limited maintenance during the period between formal revisions of the chapters. At the end of the fiscal year, 14 Annuals had been produced. 5. Production of 493 sections in FY 1959 brought the total number of sections produced since the start of the NIS program to 4,754, or the equivalent of nearly 77 complete NIS. Of the sections produced in FY 1959, 178 were revisions of previously published sections, bringing to 7Z2 sections the total Maintenance production to date. The year-by-year production of NIS, by agency, is shown in Tab B. 6. The progress of the NIS program since FY 1949, in terms of the number of sections published, in preparation in the contributing agencies, in final review, and at the printer, is shown in Tab C. 7. The NIS produced thus far represent 76% of total world coverage of which the NIS on the highest priority areas is essentially complete and in active maintenance. The status of NIS coverage by world areas is shown in Tab D, by individual areas in Tab F. - 7 - Sanitized - Approved Farditteleasez ellkiREIP62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved FoEINeigm.ECATRt62-00680R000200140001-1 Processing and Review 8.

Maintenance contributions as a group showed qualitative ratings of 22% in Category I, 68% in Category II, and 10% in Category III (mainly deficiencies in Supplements V produced by Interior). * Category Adquacy: I - NIS material which fully satisfied the fundamental requirements of a well-prepared and well-coordinated basic intelligence study, including such essentials as sound research, clear presentation, and substantive adequacy. II - NIS material which with reasonable editorial support by CIA satisfied NIS standards. III - NIS material which did not satisfy minimum NIS standards without major revision. -8 - Sanitized - Approvedcfcmflefsuw. ,cjA.-BDP62-00680R000200140001 -1 Sanitized - Approved F Imarsig ftilit-pipE62-00680 R000200140001-1 Publication 9. A total of 554 sections was published during FY 1959, the second highest total published in one year since the beginning of the NIS program. This large number of sections published, coupled with a decrease in sections processed and forwarded to the printer, brought the printing plant backlog down from 192 sections when the year began to 76 sections when it ended. Average printing time per unit was reduced by more than one month during the year. NIS Gazetteers 10. The major accomplishment in this field was the publication of the revised NIS Gazette e r on the U.S.S.R. This gazetteer consists of seven volumes, contains 362,000 place names, and is the most comprehensive gazetteer ever published on the U.S.S.R. One other gazetteer was published in FY 1959 and the Office of Geography, Department of the Interior, completed work on three others. The NIS Gazetteer production record to date shows 117 gazetteers produced con- taining about 2,219,000 names. The year-by-year production achievement since FY 1949 is shown in Tab E. NIS Base Maps 11. During FY 1959, the Geographic Research Area, CIA, produced 23 standard base maps and 12 page-size base maps, bringing total NIS areas thus covered to 118. In addition the Geographic Research Area maintained its fine record of NIS support through the processing, compilation, and construction of intelligence maps and charts for a wide range of NIS-producing components. - 9 - Sanitized - Approved Foickeiet'ie:EtW-MSP62-00680R000200140001-1 25X1X7 25X1X7 Sanitized - Approved ForeolfiRsgbpik.ftpft2-00680R000200140001-1 NIS Dissemination and Use 12. The FY 1959 dissemination record indicates the manner in which the NIS program is accomplishing the objective of having the basic intelligence required by the government published and available for immediate use as needed. In the course of the year, 554 sections were published totaling about 197,000 copies. Approxi- mately 128,000 copies were immediately disseminated in response to standing requirements. The remainder was placed in reserve to fulfill supplemental dissemination requests. 25X1X7 13. Standing requirements throughout the intelligence com- munity, among various non-USIB agencies,and from account for the bulk of initial NIS dissemination. Copies of the NIS go to major military commands and military schools in the United States as well as to commands, embassies, and posts overseas. The recent CINCNELM report indicated the value of the simulta- neous availability of NIS coverage to all U. S. commands jointly involved in an emergency situation. The list of non-USIB agencies regularly receiving NIS on selected topics and areas as approved by the NIS Committee includes the departments of Interior, Commerce, Labor, and Treasury, as well as the Export-Import Bank, USIA, and ICA. Under the authority of the Intelligence Board, regular dissemination of certain uncontrolled NIS units is made to the 25X1X7 14. A reserve stock is maintained to fulfill requests from all sources and is continually being drawn upon. Approximately 30,000 copies of NIS units were drawn from the reserve stock in FY 1959 to fulfill supplemental requests. Many such requests result from the emergence of priority situations on the inter- national scene. Special studies and projects also create call for the broad range of basic intelligence coverage available in published NIS. Frequent requests from the Weapons Systems Evaluation Group in the Office of the Secretary of Defense are an example of the active demand for NIS support for such purposes. 15. Since the inception of the NIS program, approximately 2,000,000 copies of NIS units have been published to meet the requests for this basic intelligence. - 10 - Sanitized - Approved Fizreglimq9?110011P62-00680R000200140001-1 25X1X7 Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 No. of Sections 160 150 140 130 120 110 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 CONFIDENTIAL THE NIS PROGRAM CONTRIBUTOR PRODUCTION OF NIS BY MONTH, F.Y. 1959 30 June 1959 TOTAL SECTIONS SCHEDULED PER MONTH SECTIONS DELIVERED PER MONTH: CIA AIR FORCE NAVY ARMY STATE (Includes contributions from Departments of Defense, Agriculture and Interior) July Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May June 1958 1959 CONFIDENTIAL Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 CONFIDENTIAL No. of Virtual Sections 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 THE NIS PROGRAM CONTRIBUTOR PRODUCTION OF NIS BY YEAR 30 JUNE 1959 ?496 Requirement for 8 equivalent NIS per year FISCAL YEAR 1949 1950 1951 1 952 1 953 1954 1955 1956 1957 1958 1959 Cumulative production- 121/2 9 13'/ 201,4 29 36 44 521/3 604 69 77 (Equivalent NIS) CIA AIR FORCE NAVY ARMY STATE (Includes contributions from Departments of Defense, Agriculture and Interior) CONFIDENTIAL Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-00680R000200140001-1 1.-1.000171.00ZOOON08900-Z9dCIN-V10 : eseeieN iod peAwddv - PezMueS No. of Sections 5000 4500 4000 3500 3000 CONFIDENTIAL THE NIS PROGRAM NUMBER Of SECTIONS PUBLISHED AND IN PROCESS 30 JUNE 1959 In process in the contributing agencies In process in OBI In printing process Published 25001-- 2000 1500 1000 500 ,N ??\ ?\?
