EXCERPT FROM AD/O DIARY, Wednesday, 13 May 1959
We" awes' with Mr. ften l the !m list of piiliestiee. is erter to clarify
in my own mind why certain publications are D lassified, some Otfietal Use Only, and
others Confidential. Mr. Bagnall reminded me of the time that the Director had
asked that we downgrade, to Unclassified, as many J publications as possible in
order to get them disseminated to industries and educational institutions. At that
time Kr. Bagnall had prepared a list which was approved by the DD/i. Subsequently,
OTS declined quite a few of these publications on the basis that they were neither
scientific nor technical. However, they have remained Unclassified. Mr. Bagnall
pointed out that the advantage of maintaining an Official Use Only classification
on most of FM Is publications is that it keeps CIA publications and dissemination
problems within bounds. Kr. Bagnall pointed out that the publications on the
USSR, BE and FB military subjects were classified Confidential at the request of
0-2. Another publication is classified Confidential because of DD/P source
protection*
