DIARY NOTES
DD/S 19 July 1965
1. Bob Fuchs raised a question about the continuation of the pilot pro-
gram of the Managerial Grid based on cost savings of money to be expended
for this program. I said that the Office of Finance should continue this
program until such time as the cost and diversion of manpower seriously
question the advisability of its continuation.
2. 1 met with Alan Warfield, and
Emmett Echols to discuss the status of the proposed transfer of the
Clandestine Services Personnel Division from the Office of Personnel to
DD/P. DD/P proposed the complete transfer of the unit predicated on the
command relationship desirability and the removal of the two -hat condition
of the personnel in this unit working for both DD/P and the Office of Personnel
at the same time. We discussed various aspects of the problem with each
side maintaining a status quo viewpoint. I said that I would inquire into this
problem further to determine what positions must be retained by the Office
of Personnel to perform its functions and what slots and personnel could be
transferred to DD/P. I pointed out that I thought this was a long-range
problem rather than an immediate one and that any decision to proceed on
this proposal based on the benefits to be derived should be weighed against
the disruption which would be caused by splitting up this unit. Tom
agreed with this, and the Office of Personnel will prepare a
further report. was obviously unhappy since he wanted the
unit to be transferred in toto right now. I pointed out that we could not go
back to the 1952 concept but that we would work out an equitable solution
to this problem.

3. Dr. Tietjen called to report that has been medically 25X1 A
approved for overseas duty.
4. Matt Baird telephoned this morning to report that he was leaving
immediate) for Colorado to present the Intelligence Medal of Merit to
whose condition was reported as being very serious.
5. The problem of multiple security clearances on NRO papers was
raised by McGeorge Bundy during a recent conversation with Dick Helms.
The Agency was asked to consider the feasibility of consolidating these

clearances, and a 1963 paper to this effect was resurrected in the Office
of Security. At the Executive Committee Meeting this morning Dick again
raised the question and asked for a progress report. The Office of
Security advised me that the updating of this paper is being expedited and
that it will be cleared first with Dr. Wheelon before submission to NRO
for consideration.
7. Colonel White called about the Director's car. He wanted to cancel
the rental contract with Chrysler, and the letter closing the contract was
stopped before it left the Agency. (Since then Colonel White met with the
Chrysler representative and explained why the rental agreement was can-
celed.) The Director now wants to rent a Cadillac limousine and has talked
directly with Roger Keyes of General Motors. (On 20 July Colonel White
telephoned Mr. John Riggs, Director of Government Sales of the General
Motors Corporation, in Detroit, Michigan. Mr. Riggs was quite familiar
with the Bureau of the Budget limousine list and noted that we were not on
it. Colonel White explained that we had an exception from the Bureau of
the Budget, and this was satisfactory to Mr. Riggs. He asked Mr. Riggs
to lease the Agency a Cadillac limousine for $1, 000 a year. Mr. Riggs
said that he would look into this matter and advise us of General Motors'
position. We would lease a 1966 model, which would not be available
until December 1965 or January 1966.) I telephoned and 25X1 A
asked him to inquire about leasing a Lincoln, a Lincoln Continental, and
a Cadillac. Later in the afternoon he reported that Sam Miller of the
Ford Company would lease a five-passenger, Lincoln sedan (without
center glass) for $750 a year. He had no information on the Lincoln
limousine at that time. Ford makes a special-built Lincoln Continental
with extended frame but has never rented one of these; the price will be
obtained. The Cadillac representative, Russ Wilson, said that he would
have to check on the rental of a Cadillac since General Motors was not
interested in expanding its rental list, which is limited to Cabinet officers.
On 20 July brought me some papers and a brochure on the
Lincoln limousine. However, the Director seems to be going the route
of leasing a Cadillac.

8. The Director requested a set of floor plans of his new house. The
Office of Logistics furnished these plans but without any measurements.
I called George Meloon about this, and proper floor plans were submitted
the morning of 21 July.
