bibliography of research on the subject of economic penetration in
Indonesia, including a report prepared by ORR now in the process

2. Mr. Landon of the OCB Staff was very interested in getting
the outline plan of operations in the hands of the Board Assistants
on time and stated to the Group that they would have to decide
whether to postpone submission of the paper or eliminate consideration
of this new research. It was decided that the outline plan of opera-
tions gave adequate consideration to the subject of economic penetration.
However, Mr. Landon agreed that the Working Group should read the
suggested bibliography of the additional paper being developed by CIA,
and that another look should be taken at the plan before it went from
the Board Assistants to the Board itself.
3. Some eleven courses of action were written into the plan
before this meeting and an additional four or five were added by the
ICA representative. 25X1A9a
