I understand your luncheon remarks were well received. The attached outline of your speech covers the major themes you have been hitting in your public appearances including something on our relations with academia which would be important for the Brookings audience.

Background: The Brookings Institution is a private nonprofit organization devoted to research, education, and publication on important issues of domestic and foreign policy. The organization was named in honor of Robert Somers Brookings (1850-1932), a St. Louis businessman whose leadership shaped the early organization. Its principal purpose is to bring knowledge to bear on the current and emerging policy problems facing the American people. Brookings functions as an independent analyst and critic, committed to publishing its research findings for the information of the public. The latest issue of The Brookings Review features an article on "Restoring Effective Government: a Conversation on Constitutional Reform" in which Lloyd Cutler, one of the evening's honorees, is a primary discussant. (For additional background information, including a list of trustees and The Brookings Review See Tab E.) 4. Remarks: You agreed that we should focus on the roles and missions of the CIA and is relationships with Congress and with academia, drawing on your recent speeches and the NEWSWEEK interview. Attached is a proposed speaking outline that covers these topics and adds some remarks on our relationship with the media. (For remarks see Tab F.)

WEBSTER DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BEFORE THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, DC NOVEMBER 10, 1987 Declassified in Part -Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01 : CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90GO01 52RO01 202400013-7 SPEAKING OUTLINE I. INTRODUCTION: SECRET INTELLIGENCE IS A NECESSARY TOOL VITAL TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY. A. INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES MUST BE CONDUCTED OBJECTIVELY, PROFESSIONALLY, AND LAWFULLY. B. THERE MUST BE A TRUSTWORTHY SYSTEM OF OVERSIGHT AND ACCOUNTABILITY WHICH BUILDS, RATHER THEN ERODES, TRUST BETWEEN THOSE WHO HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MANAGING OUR INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM AND THOSE IN CONGRESS WHO ACT AS SURROGATES FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. C. OUR GOVERNMENT RELIES HEAVILY ON INTELLIGENCE: TO HELP FORMULATE AND CONDUCT FOREIGN POLICY, TO VERIFY ARMS CONTROL AGREEMENTS, AND TO UNDERSTAND THE MILITARY CAPABILITIES AND INTENTIONS OF OUR ADVERSARIES. 1. SOME OBSERVERS HAVE CHARGED THAT OUR INTELLIGENCE ANALYSIS HAS BEEN POLITICAL--THAT IT HAS BEEN "COOKED" TO TELL POLICYMAKERS WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR. 2. I HAVE TAKEN A NUMBER OF STEPS TO ENSURE THAT THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY PRESERVES ITS OBJECTIVITY AND PROTECTS ITS INTEGRITY. 3. WE INTEND TO "TELL IT AS IT IS," AVOIDING BIAS AS MUCH AS WE CAN. 4. MY POSITION ON THE PREPARATION OF INTELLIGENCE JUDGEMENTS, PARTICULARLY NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE ESTIMATES IS THAT THEY CAN BE USED IN WHOLE OR IN PART. THEY CAN BE IGNORED OR TORN UP. BUT THEY MAY NOT BE CHANGED. Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90GO01 52RO01 202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 II. COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS MAKE UP THE GREAT PERCENTAGE OF OUR WORK. BUT THERE ARE OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES. A. THE CIA IS RESPONSIBLE FOR COUNTERINTELLIGENCE OVERSEAS. B. WE HAVE ANOTHER ROLE--PERHAPS THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL: THE IMPLEMENTATION OF FOREIGN POLICY THROUGH COVERT ACTIVITIES. 1. ALTHOUGH COVERT ACTION IS NOT DEFINED BY LAW, IT HAS COME TO BE UNDERSTOOD TO REFER TO ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE ROLE OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT IS NOT APPARENT. 2. FROM PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT FORWARD, EVERY PRESIDENT HAS ENDORSED AND USED COVERT ACTION TO SUPPORT THE FOREIGN POLICY OF THIS COUNTRY. --COVERT ACTIONS TRADITIONALLY CLAIM ONLY A VERY SMALL PORTION OF THE CIA'S BUDGET, BUT THEY ARE THE FOCUS OF THE GREATEST CONGRESSIONAL AND PUBLIC ATTENTION. 3. UNDER THE HUGHES-RYAN AMENDMENT, THE PRESIDENT MUST FIND THAT EACH COVERT ACTION IS IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY BEFORE THE OPERATION CAN BE INITIATED. --WE HAVE TO KNOW BEFORE THE PRESIDENT MAKES THE FINDING THAT THE COVERT ACTIVITY IS DOABLE IN A LAWFUL WAY. --THE NATIONAL SECURITY PLANNING GROUP MUST ASK ITSELF: --WILL IT WORK? --IS IT CONSISTENT WITH OVERT POLICY? --IS IT CONSISTENT WITH AMERICAN VALUES? --IF PUBLICLY EXPOSED, WILL IT MAKE SENSE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? ,i Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 III. CONGRESS HAS A ROLE IN FORMULATING FOREIGN POLICY AND IN FUNDING INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES. A. IN 1976 AND 1977, BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS ESTABLISHED INTELLIGENCE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEES TO MONITOR ALL SIGNIFICANT INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES. 1. THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY IS REQUIRED BY LAW TO KEEP THE COMMITTEES FULLY AND CURRENTLY INFORMED OF ALL INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES.. --WE DO THIS THROUGH SUBSTANTIVE BRIEFINGS AND THE PROVISION OF INTELLIGENCE PUBLICATIONS.1 2. TO MEET EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES, THE PRESIDENT CAN LIMIT NOTIFICATION TO THE "GANG OF EIGHT." 3. THE PRESIDENT HAS ANNOUNCED, WITH RESPECT TO COVERT ACTION, HIS INTENTION TO KEEP THE COMMITTEES INFORMED WITHIN 48 HOURS EXCEPT IN THE MOST EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCES. B. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CONGRESS MUST BE ONE OF TRUTH AND NOT DECEPTION. 1. WE HAVE EXTRAORDINARILY GOOD OVERSIGHT COMMITTEES BEING MANAGED IN A WAY THAT PROTECTS INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND METHODS.2 2. I HAVEN'T ENCOUNTERED ANYTHING YET THAT WAS SO SENSITIVE, SO LIFE-THREATENING, THAT I COULDN'T SHARE IT WITH THE COMMITTEES.3 3. FROM TIME TO TIME SOME QUESTIONS ARE ASKED ABOUT SOURCES AND METHODS THAT I FEEL OBLIGED TO PROTECT.4 ON SUCH OCCASIONS I CAN TELL THE CONGRESS THAT I AM NOT AT LIBERTY TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS. 3 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 IV. WE BELIEVE THERE CAN BE AND SHOULD BE A CLOSE l-WORKING RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY AND THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY. A. ACADEMICS WERE IN AT THE BEGINNING OF OUR MODERN INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM. B. WE RELY ON COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES AND INSTITUTIONS SUCH AS BROOKINGS FOR THE EXPERTISE THEY CAN PROVIDE IN DEVELOPING ACCURATE ASSESSMENTS. 1. THERE IS NOTHING SECRET IN THESE RELATIONSHIPS. 2. MANY FACULTY MEMBERS WORK CLOSELY WITH US. SOME BECOME SCHOLARS-IN-RESIDENCE SHARING THEIR KNOWLEDGE ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS. 3. AGENCY OFFICERS PARTICIPATE IN PROFESSIONAL AND SCHOLARLY ASSOCIATIONS AND MAKE SUBSTANTIVE PRESENTATIONS ON CAMPUSES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. --FOR EXAMPLE, OUR OFFICERS REGULARLY ATTEND LECTURES, MAKE PRESENTATIONS, AND PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSIONS HERE AT BROOKINGS.5 --UNDER YOUR SPONSORSHIP, A STUDY GROUP VISITS OUR HEADQUARTERS SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR TO DISCUSS THE AGENCY'S ROLE AND ACTIVITIES.6 C. WE ALSO RELY ON COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES TO SUPPLY THE NEW PEOPLE THAT MAKE OUR SYSTEM WORK. 1. OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS, STUDENTS AND FACULTY OPPOSED TO THE ADMINISTRATION'S POLICIES HAVE CHOSEN THE CIA--AND ITS RECRUITERS--AS TARGETS FOR MANY OF THEIR PROTESTS. i Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 2. DESPITE THIS ACTIVITY WE CONTINUE TO SEEK OUT "THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST" ON OUR NATION'S CAMPUSES TO JOIN US. V. IN OUR RELATIONS WITH THE MEDIA, WE WORK TO ENSURE THAT NOTHING IS PUBLISHED ABOUT THE SOURCES AND METHODS OF INTELLIGENCE. A. A BALANCE HAS TO BE STRUCK BETWEEN AN OBLIGATION NOT TO DAMAGE NATIONAL SECURITY AND THE NEED TO PROVIDE THE PUBLIC WITH THE INFORMATION IT NEEDS. B. WE ARE PREPARED TO DISCUSS SUBSTANTIVE AND OTHER ISSUES WITH THE MEDIA, SOMETIMES ON THE RECORD, MOST OFTEN ON BACKGROUND. 1. WE EXCLUDE CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. 2. WE ALWAYS ARE TRUTHFUL AND EXPECT THE MEDIA TO BE THE SAME WITH US. C. COOPERATION MUST BE DEVELOPED BETWEEN THE MEDIA AND GOVERNMENT ON STORIES THAT PUT INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND METHODS AT RISK. 1. THE TASK IS TO RECOGNIZE THE POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGE AND TO CONSULT ON HOW IT MIGHT BE MINIMIZED. 2. WE ARE ALWAYS READY AND AVAILABLE TO HELP ON THAT. D. WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN, IN THE END BALANCE THEIR NEED FOR INFORMATION AND OUR NEED TO PROTECT INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND METHODS. --WE CAN HAVE BOTH A FREE PRESS AND NATIONAL SECURITY. 5 1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/01: CIA-RDP90G00152R001202400013-7 VI. CONCLUSIONS. A. SHARED RESPONSIBILITY FOR INTELLIGENCE IS VITALLY IMPORTANT BOTH ON THE EXECUTIVE AND CONGRESSIONAL SIDE. B. WE WORK WITH THE CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEES WHICH ACT AS SURROGATES FOR THE CONGRESS AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. C. WE WORK WITH THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY TO OBTAIN ITS EXPERTISE AND TO ENCOURAGE ITS PEOPLE TO CONSIDER CAREERS IN INTELLIGENCE. D. OUR RELATIONS WITH THE MEDIA ARE AIMED AT BUILDING TRUST FOR THE CONDUCT OF INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES AND THE PROTECTION OF OUR SOURCES AND METHODS. E. WE DILIGENTLY CARRY OUT OUR ASSIGNMENTS AROUND THE WORLD WITH FIDELITY TO THE CONSTITUTION AND THE LAWS OF OUR COUNTRY.

The seminar is conducted about 12 times a year and is designed to afford mid-level management of top corporations an exposure to representatives from the National Academy of Public Administra- tion, the House Committee on the Armed Services, the Congressional Budget Office and the Office of Management and Budget, etc. The seminar' members visit to Headquarters for lunch and an hour-long briefing and question-and-answer session is the last session on their agenda and follows a morning spent at the Department of Defense. The luncheon is hosted by a senior Agency officer (a Deputy or Associate Deputy Director, the Executive Director, the Inspector General) accompanied by seven or eight mid-level officers drawn from all four of the Directorates. Following lunch in the Executive Dining Room, the seminarians and the Agency officers repair to the DCI Conference Room, where the host provides a 10-15 minute over- view of the Agency and Community and then invites questions which are answered as candidly as possible by the Agency officers.

K. MacLaury to speak at the Brookings Institution on Tuesday, 10 November. The suggested format is 15 minutes of informal remarks followed by discussion. You could expect an audience of 80 attendees made up of Brookings' trustees, their guests, and members of the staff. Spouses are included and you are invited to bring a guest. The cocktail reception begins at 6:30 p.m., dinner at 7:15 p.m., remarks are scheduled for 8:15 p.m. Adjournment is at 9:30 p.m. Although the topic of your remarks is at your discretion, your views on the "appropriate role of the Agency in US foreign policy" would be of interest to the group. I suggest that we develop from your recent speeches and your NEWSWEEK interview remarks on your views of CIA, its role and missions, and its relationship with Congress. If you agree, I will get the drafting process started. President MacLaury was at my dinner table at Hilton Head and we discussed the possibility of your making a presentation at Brookings.
