SUBJECT: Weekly Activities Report
A. SIGNIFICANT ITIQNiS
None to report
B. OTHER. ACTIVITIES
1. Latest in the series of staff planning sessions concerned
with our reoriented area program took up the matter of basic subjects
which will be common to all our AAO briefings, whether given to
individuals or to classes. The ideas expressed at this meeting will
form the basis of a policy which I expect to draw up in early January.
The degree of emphasis to be given each subject in a particular
briefing will be left up to the instructor and will of course vary
with the area covered.
2. Our eight-hour briefing on Latin America appeared to be
somewhat more successful than the previous one in September. While
of OCI (on American policy and Latin American institutions)
latecomers gave us a total of 10.
was the attrition of original enrollees (from 15 to 8), though two
and my opinion. In addition, I am now able to handle two periods
without assistance (on basic strategic factors and conclusions
regarding the Americans abroad problem). Biggest disappointment
of WH (on how to deal with Latinos) was excellent, in
was not as well prepared or forceful as we would wish
