SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CHAIRMAN
19 February 1958
,SUGGESTION NO. 58-208: dated 22 November 1957
, GS-7
Documents Analyst, OO/FDD/DDI
A. Summary of Suggestion
The suggester proposed that the marked copies of Russian
newspapers received by FDD/BU be retained in-tact in the files
and the unmarked copy be used for clipping purposes. The pro-
cedure had been to use the marked copy for clipping.
B. Summary of Evaluation
On 9 December 1957, the Deputy Chief, FDD/00 stated:
"The procedures outlined in this suggestion will be im-
plemented in the USSR Branch 2 January 1958 for the
reasons set forth in the suggestion. No money saving
will result, but we anticipate that we can increase the
quality of our reporting somewhat by its use. The sug-
gester states that he, or she, is an officer in the
branch. This suggestion is clearly within the respon-
sibilities of FDD officers as outlined. Many such ideas
are proposed and adopted each month in FDD. We, there-
fore, do not feel that it is appropriate to the Incentive
Awards Program."
C. Line-of-Duty Status
An excerpt from the suggester's job description states:
"...the GS-7 level is the trainee or junior Intelligence
Officer level in which complete proficiency is required
in the language or languages used, but knowledges of and
experience in the techniques of intelligence, research
methods, operating procedures, reporting techniques, etc.,
are still to be gained during this period."
A conversation with the Deputy Chief, FDD/00 ' revealed: 25X1A
Each officer is expected to come up with ideas on how to
improve the use of Source material. Each person is not
only responsible for extracting the information, but also
for improving the techniques necessary to do this.
