Subj: Free Flow of Operational Information to CIA
Refs (a) ER-1-288 of 8 May 1950
1. ONI offers no objection to the "statement of requirements* mentioned
in paragraph 3 of the reference and will make every effort to meet such
requirements. However.. ONI is forbidden to release the verbatim text of
operational dispatches received from or sent to U.S. Naval Forces. Out-
going dispatches to these forces contain no intelligence not already made
available to the CIA through established channels. Incoming dispatches
containing information of an intelligence value will be extracted and this
information supplied to the OIL. However, these extracts cannot contain
details of the operations of U.S. forces as such information is not intel-
ligence and is considered to be beyond the purview of either departmental
or national intelligence.
