Acting DD/I
Friday, 19 December 1952
1. Received from 25X1A9a query as to why Peron's message to
Ibanez congratulating them on election and "Looking forward to the day
when our two countries will be under. same flag.," had not been reflected in
NIE-70,. Asked 0/NE to comment.
25X1A9a
2. Conferred with Wisner and~on Friday cable concerning particu-
larly the CIA non-participation in the special security committee of the
Tripartite Conference with Cdr. Kelso Daly of JIG sitting for the U.S. It
was my impression that Layton had agreed not to convene this committee.
25X1 A2 Will discuss this with won his return. Wisner feels that 25X1A9a
this is primarily a DD/P activity????????
25X1A9a 3. Told Wisner and - that would be ideally 25X1 A5a 1
suited to give thorn expert advice on PT opera- ions in the event that they
would 'wish to check up on information given them officially by the Navy.
25X1A9a 4. With DCI, of 0/CI, went to
New York to brief General Eisenhower. The briefing lasted somewhat over a
half hour and covered Korea, Indo-China, Philippines, North Africa, Iran,
Vienna Peace Conference, and German-French EDC problems. The last part of
it was also attended by Governor Sherman Adams. It seemed to go very 'well
with Ike paying close attention and interjecting numerous questions and comments.
5. For the future, it was agreed that the next formal briefing would
25X1A9a be Friday, 2 January, but meanwhile, would remain with his
secure room and bring to the President-elect's attention urgent items on a
spot basis. General Eisenhower indicated a desire to be informed as to NSC
and other policy-makers' reaction to intelligence developments. I would go
so far as tojay what he really wants is a very brief report on changes in
various situations with the bulk of the time devoted to a general bull
session as to what we ought to do about the principle trouble spots. DCI
obviously worried about getting too far into the policy side. Enroute home,
DCI said he did not really know what to lay on but would think it over and
would inform me later.
6. While at the Commodore chatted briefly with Stewart~,~whose column
of the day had briefly scoped my comment on Indo-China (I believe based on
info supplied him by General Vandenberg) and I renewed my fairly small
acquaintance .,rith Max who is Sherman Adams' chief assistant. In my
opinion, he should be chief contact at the 'White House as it is quite
apparent that the Dire for and Governor Adams are on rather frosty terms,
