Honorable Allen Dulles

Dear Mr. Dulles:
Mr. Co D. Jackson, of our United Nations delega.
tion, suggested I contact you to determine the availability
of a Soviet propaganda film titled "Silvery Dust."
Our curriculum here at the Air Command and Staff
College includes considerable instruction in psychological
operations, and I believe this film would be a valuable
supplement to our program.
In the event a print of "Silvery Dust" is available,
I would certainly appreciate your advising me whether it
could be loaned to the Air Command and Staff College for a
limited time.

TAT 10IOR NDUM FOR
TAT I have checked with in OCD who has informed me
that a copy of the film "Silvery Dust" is available in his film files.
TAT stated that originally the fact that this organization possessed
a copy of this film was considered highly classified. However, it would seem
-that since we have once loaned it to the UN, it may be that this fact is no
:Longer so sensitive..
I see no reason for taking further action at this time. I believe we
should now merely wait until we receive an official request from General
Hopwood for loan of the film. If you agree, I will flag this with ER to
have arr letter from General Hopwood brought to my attention.
