MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Research and Development, DDS&T
FROM: Don I. Wortman
Deputy Director for Administration
SUBJECT: "Comment" for October 1980 Issue of DDA
Exchange,
1. The DDA Exchange is a quarterly Directorate publication that
is widely circulated to both DDA and non-DDA Agency employees. In the
time that we have been publishing the magazine, four years now, many
of the Agency's senior officers have contributed the lead article
"Comment". Attached.for your perusal is the last copy.of the Exchange
that we published.
2. I think that a "Comment" from you in our next quarterly
publication would be very appropriate. We have adopted a theme
presentation for the October issue -- the DDA in the 1990s -- and we
have requested each of our regular contributors to address the theme
by "blue skying" a little on their projected operations fifteen or
twenty years from now. I think that from your vantage point, you
could provide an interesting perspective on the DDA in.the 1990s. The
choice of subject matter is entirely yours; however, as a suggestion,
you might address the impact of the introduction of high technology
(video, fiber optics, and the like) on areas where DDA offices
currently provide information handling services. Can we count on a
"Comment" from you?
3. The "Comment" article should be sized at about a thousand
words so as to leave sufficient room for your photograph and an
appropriate caption. in order to meet our next publication schedule,
we will need your contribution by 15 September 1980. We would
appreciate it if you would send your material to the Managing Editor,
25X1A DDA Exchange, - Headquarters.
