FOREWORD
DCID No. 1/3, revised annually, is intended to serve as a stable
basis for long-term intelligence planning by identifying critical
intelligence problems deemed likely to persist over a period of five
years or so. Such guidance must necessarily be expressed in relatively
broad terms.
The purpose of this Quarterly Supplement is to provide more current
and specific guidance within the context of DCID No. 1/3, by calling
attention to situations which, within the next six months or so, may require
some adjustment of present intelligence attention and coverage. The
Supplement is intended to guide short-term intelligence planning by
Note*
This Foreword is unchanged from that of the last Quarterly
Supplement. In the numbered items of this present document,
however, strict interpretation is made of the Quarterly Supplement's
purpose. Thus the present document does not contain several
items listed in the current Supplement. This does not mean, of
course, that items deleted do not still deserve high priority attention,
as provided for in DCID No. 1/3.

Quarterly Supplement
anticipating changes in specific situations which may justify either some
reduction or some augmentation of effort. This Supplement excludes
situations or questions which are already explicitly listed in DCID No. 1/3
as being of high priority. It supersedes all previous Quarterly Supplements.
It is not the function of this Supplement to present a complete listing
of all matters of intelligence interest. Like DCID No. 1/3 itself? the
Supplement presupposes that the bulk of the intelligence required for the
formulation and execution of national security policy will be the product of
normal coverage pursuant to DCID No. 1/2.
This supplement will be superseded by another in June 1966.
