MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Administration
FROM: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT: Elimination of Inefficiency, Waste and Abuse
DD/A Registry
X 45
1. Thanks for your response on inefficiency, waste and abuse. As
John McMahon probably told you, I want to know that we have examined all
elements of the Agency to look for economies, efficiencies, and operations
which can be scaled down or eliminated as a result of changing priorities
so that we have submitted ourselves to a process as rigorous as that which
the Presidential Commission chaired by Peter Grace, made up of business
volunteers, has applied to other elements of the government. I would like
to see'that we have tapped the Grace group for free expertise and experience
wherever in the process of our examination it appears it would be safe and
profitable to do so.
2. I still think the travel approval may be too loosely and freely
given. I understand the security requirements and the special needs of
various components requiring approval of either the DDCI or the Executive
Director would not, it appears to me, cut across these considerations.
