2. The IPC recommends the following as participating agencies, however,
all IAC agencies may avail themselves of ISR facilities:
a. Office of the Special Assistant for Intelligence,
Department of State
b. Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff� Intelligence,
Department of Army
c. Directorate of Intelligence,
Department of Air Force
d. Office of Naval Intelligence,
Department of Navy
e. Central Intelligence Agency

of birth as a known or suspected Paper Mill or Fabricator, ISR, with the
assistance of the agency in possession of relevant facts, will furnish all
pertinent information to the agency which submitted the Source Action Form
or Machine Tabulating card.
12. If, after reviewing this information, the requestor desires to
utilize the services of the source in question, a new Source Action Form
or Machine Tabulating card will then be submitted to indicate that the
source is now active for the agency concerned.

or Fabricator, it will so advise ISR and furnish all pertinent data concerning
the source as well as any Information which tends to substantiate this
suspicion.
14. When it has been determined that a source is a Paper Mill or
Fabricator) a card with this notation will be placed in the ISR. If the
danger exists that the source may continue to sell his spurious product)
ISR will disseminate a report "burning" (denouncing) the source to United
States Government agencies and to friendly foreign intelligence services,
as a given case may require. ISR will coordinate the "burn" report with
the other interagency members.
TO PROMOTE riBE 1ST EFFECTIVE USE OF SOURCES
15. Participating agencies will adopt their own internal procedures for
eliminating unproductive sources, however) if a source produces information
which is not of value to the agency controlling the source) but which is of
value to another producing agency) mutual efforts will be made to effect the
retention or transfer of the source.

review by the IAC as a body of crisis situations (IAC-M-273,
8 January 1957, item 5) and stated that he hoped to circulate a
memorandum on this matter at an early date. In this connection, the
Chairman and members noted, and exchanged views on, the situations
in Poland (with particular reference to the probable impact of im-
pending elections), Laos and Yemen.
3. Proposed Interagency Source
Control Procedures
(IAC-D-54/2, 4 January 1957)
a. After opening comments by the Chairman, Mr.
Karamessines outlined and exchanged views with the members on the
nature and purpose of this proposal. During the course of the dis-
cussion, Mr. Belmont, Mr. Traynor and General Collins indicated
that their respective agencies would not expect actively to participate
in this project. General Lewis raised some questions regarding the
draft procedure as circulated (IAC-D-54/2), particularly with respect
to the accuracy of its title and the extent to which an attempt should be
made to specify the action to be taken by individual agencies after a
check of the register disclosed possible duplication or derogatory
information regarding sources.

SECRETARY'S NOTES
1. The attention of the members is invited to their decision
on 16 October that the IAC Standing Committee on Exchanges should
submit an additional oral report within three months on further
activities by the Committee (IAC-M-260, item 4 b). However, the
Chairman of that Committee advises that, because of subsequent
policy decisions affecting the exchange program, the Committee's
activities have been substantially in abeyance during the intervening
period. Under these circumstances, unless specifically requested
to do so by a member, the Chairman does not propose to give 5ucl(b)(1)
an oral briefing at this time.

Interagency Source Control Procedures
1. On 24 July 1952 the IAC approved (IAC-M-77) the recom-
mendations of an LAG ad hoc subcommittee established to determine
����i�����=k
methods for negating the activities of Paper Mills and Fabricators
and for devising interagency source control procedures (IAC-D-54,
2 July 1952). However, terms of reference for the establishment
and operation of an interagency source control mechanism subse-
quently proposed (IAC-D-54/1, 26 February 1953) did not receive
the approval of the LAG agencies.
2. CIA believes that it would now be desirable for the IAC
agencies to review this matter generally and attempt to devise more
satisfactory procedures for dealing with this problem. CIA therefore
recommends that the IAC refer the attached draft (Attachment A) to
the Interagency Clandestine Collection Priorities Committee (IPC),
or an appropriate working group, for review and preparation of
recommendations for submission to the IAC for final approval.
3. This matter will be placed on the agenda of an early LAG
meeting for appropriate action.

DETECTION AND CONTROL OF PAPER MILLS AND FABRICATORS
11. When a check indicates that a source has the same
date and place of birth as a known or suspected Paper Mill
or Fabricator, CIA, with the assistance of any agency in
possession of relevant facts, will furnish all pertinent
information to the agency which submitted the Source Action
Form. Further, CIA, after consultation with the agencies
concerned, will submit a brief summary of this information

12. Each agency will then take appropriate action to
avoid further procurement of spurious information or unwitting
future involvement with the source.
13. At any time a participating agency suspects a source
of Paper Mill or Fabrication activities, it will so advise
CIA and furnish all pertinent data concerning the source and
any information which tends to substantiate this suspicion.
14. Upon such advise, or if a Source Control check
results in suspicion, CIA, with the cooperation of the agency
controlling or using the suspect source, will attempt to
determine, by field investigation in appropriate cases,
whether this suspicion can be substantiated or disapproved.

MEMORANDUM: To accompany IACSR and IACSG terms of reference
SUBJECT : Explanation of changes of terrninoldgy
I. In the terms of reference for operation of the interagency source
control mechanism directed to be established by IAC-D-54, several
terms are employed which for the reasons stated below do not appear
in the IAC directive.
a. "Intelligence Advisory Committee Source Registet"
(or "ISR")
This nomenclature is recommended to replace "Interagency
Source Control Center" because
(I) "Intelligence Advisory Committee" is more definitive and
and authoritative than "Interagency."
(2) "Control" connotes and is used by the intelligence com-
munity to describe the recruitment, employment, direction,
payment, and other operational management of sources. These
functions are not assigned to the mechanism to be established
by IAC -D-54.
(3) The word "Register" is not in current formal use by the
intelligence community whereas "center", "Registry", etc. ,
are. This change will prevent confusion with already named and
operating establishments.
b. "Intelligence Advisory Committee Source Group"
This title is adopted to identify the personnel of the various
agencies who are specifically designated and authorized to conduct
source business.
c. "Drop Memorandum"
This term replaced "Burn Memorandum" since the word "burn"
is used extensively in the intelligence community literally and specifically
with regard to the destruction of documents and materiel.

INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE SOURCE REGISTER
and
INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE SOURCE GROUP
These terms of reference are adopted by the IAC member agencies as
the basis for operation of a means of "interagency source control" and the
discovery and elimination of "Paper Mills" and "Fabricators."
1. In accordance with the provisions of Sec. 102.(d)(3) of the National
Security Act and of NSCID's 1., 5., and 11., the interagency mechanism
for implementing and conducting the procedures directed by IAC -D-54
(Appendix 1), in order to assist in the detection and control of Paper Mills
and Fabrication, to provide better evaluation of intelligence, and to promote
the most effective use of intelligence sources, shall consist of an Intelligence
Advisory Committee Source Register and an Intelligence Advisory Com-
mittee Source Group.
2, For the purpose of this directive, the following definitions are
provided:
a. A clandestine overseas source is one whose identity cannot be
revealed in the report which submits the information supplied by him.
la, Participating agencies are the Office of the Special Assistant
for Intelligence of the Department of State, the Office of the Assistant
Chief of Staff, G-2, of the Department of the Army, the Office of
Naval Intelligence, the Directorate of Intelligence U.S. Air Force,
the Central Intelligence Agency, and the Federal Bureau of Investiga-
tion subject to the exception noted in IAC -D-54.
3. The Intelligence Advisory Committee Source Register (hereinafter re-
ferred to as the "Intelligence Source Register" or "ISR") shall be the central
repository for essential indentifying data concerning all of the clandestine
overseas sources of foreign positive intelligence information used by partici-
pating agencies, and shall be assembled and maintained within the Headquarters
of CIA by CIA personnel initially not exceeding four in number.

4. The Intelligence Advisory Committee Source Group (hereinafter
referred to as the "Iptelligence Source Group" or the "ISG") shall establish,
within the provisions of TAG-D-54, policy and procedure for the-conduct of
the ISR and related activities, and shall be responsible for conduct of all
activities relating to the ISR. The ISG shall consist of one principal and
one alternate member appointed from each participating agency. These
members shall be the only persons to whom ISR data will be disclosed.
5. The Chairman of the ISG shall be furnished initially from the member -
ship representing the CIA, but shall then rotate among the members peri-
odically.
6. Access to the physical location of the ISR shall be denied to all
except the four persons designated in paragraph 3.
7. Data furnished by participating agencies for inclusion in the ISR shall
be submitted on the agreed Data Form (Appendix 2) or equivalent, but only
those portions so indicated in Appendix 2 need be completed for ISR purposes.
These data, or any other pertinent information of sources, will not be dis-
closed to third parties without the consent of the submitting agency.
8. Upon receipt of the Data Form in the ISR, all pertinent CIA files
will be searched and any source information resulting from this search,
together with the information provided by the Data Form, will be filed
in the ISR. Any pertinent information will be recorded on the blank space
of the Form and the Form itself returned to the submitting agency.
Similarly, if there is no unfavorable information and the source is not
being used by another agency, the Form will be stamped "CLEAR" to
so indicate.
9. If search of the ISR or pertinent CIA files discloses that a source
is being used by more than one agency, or becomes "suspect" for what-
ever reason, the ISG members of the agencies concerned will meet for
discussion of the case and determination of their courses of action.
10. Any intelligence source problem which cannot be resolved by the
ISO members will be referred to the Chiefs of the Intelligence Agencies
concerned.
11. When a source becomes "suspect" and investigation is indicated,
this investigation will be conducted by the agency(ies) controlling the
source. Other agencies, upon request, will cooperate and assist within
their capabilities. The results of investigations and actions taken will be
recorded in the ISR.

12. The participating agencies may drop sources from time to time and
for various reasons. When a field unit of an agency drops a source, its
(Washington) headquarters phall be notified, and informed of the circumstances,
in order that the ISR can record such action. However, if a field unit con-
templates dropping a source without prejudice, other U.S. intelligence units
in the local area shall first be provided with the opportunity of exploiting the
source should they so desire. If a source produces information which is not
of value to the (Washington) headquarters of the agency controlling him, but
which is of value to another (Washington) participating agency, mutual efforts
will be made by the ISG members, in coordination with appropriate field
units, to effect his transfer or retention.
13. If a source is dropped because he has been determined to be a Paper
� Mill agent or a Fabricator of foreign positive intelligence, elimination of
the source shall be effected by means of a "Drop Memorandum" (Appendix 3).
These memoranda will be prepared by the controlling agency and disseminated
by the ISR. Drop Memoranda will be classified and dissemination controlled
as the originator desires; such desires to be submitted to the ISR with the
Drop Memorandum. Drop Memoranda should also be accompanied by lists
of all disseminated reports which were based on information supplied by the
dropped sources. These lists should include the serial numbers of the re-
ports, dates of publication, subject, and countries with which the reports
deal.

PROBLEM:
1. To establish an interagency intelligence source control
mechanism.
GENERAL:
2. An IAC subcommittee meeting, held on 4 April 1952 to dis-
cuss the current CIA* procedures for detection of Paper Mills and
Fabrication, resulted in a general agreement that the procedures
outlined would be taken under advisement by each agency to determine
their applicability within that agency.
3. At the 4 April meeting, a Working Group was designated to
develop a practicable source control mechanism which would be sub-
mitted for the consideration of the IAC subcommittee. At its first
meeting, the Working Group agreed that it would develop a mechanism
which would not only assist in the detection and control of Paper
Mills and Fabrication, but also result in better evaluation of
intelligence and aid in the elimination of unproductive sources.
CONCLUSION:
4. To make this system operate effectively, the establishment
of an interagency source control mechanism is essential.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
5. In consonance with the above, the Working Group recommends
that:
a. Each agency establish, as rapidly as possible, its own
source control procedures.
b. Information on foreign intelligence sources and inter-
mediaries obtained by these procedures be held by the agencies
controlling such sources, and the participating agencies furnish
copies of this information to CIA.
c. As a service of common concern, CIA be the clearing house
for interagency Paper Mill and Fabrication Control purposes.
NOTE: '*Unless otherwise indicated, reference to CIA in this
paper refers to the Interagency Source Control Section: Intelligence
Audit Branch, Requirements Staff, Office of Special Operations, CIA.

SOURCE CONTROL PROCEDURES
General
1. Participating agencies will furnish copies of information
on their foreign intelligence sources to CIA.*
2. Upon receipt of these source descriptions, CIA will:
� a. Assign a restricted file category number to these
source descriptions and maintain them in an "Interagency Source
COntrol Center."
b. Check each source description through the Central
Registry of the Office of Special Operations.
c. Inform the participating agency concerned of the results
of this check.
To Detect and Control Paper Mills and Fabrication
3. If check discloses source to be a known or suspected Paper
Mill agent or Fabricator, CIA, with the assistance of any agency in
possession of relevant facts, will furnish all pertinent information
to the agency which submitted the source description. Further, CIA
will submit a brief summary of this information to all other partici-
pating agencies.
4. Each agency will then take appropriate action to avoid further
procurement of spurious information or unwitting future involvement
with the source.
5. At any time a participating agency suspects a source of Paper
Mill or Fabrication activities, it will so advise CIA and furnish all
pertinent data concerning the source and any information which tends
to substantiate this suspicion.
6. Upon such advice, or if a source control check results in
suspicion, CIA/OSO, with the cooperation of the agency controlling
or using the suspect source, will attempt to determine, by field
investigation in appropriate cases, whether this suspicion can be
substantiated or disproved.
NOTE: *In cases where sources are under the jurisdiction of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, no source identity information will
be submitted, since such sources are of concern solely to this agency.

7. If after discussion between CIA and the suspecting agency,
it is decided that the source is definitely suspect, CIA will alert
the other participating agencies.
8. When a source has been identified as a paper mill agent or
fabricator through these or other procedures, files will be marked
accordingly in the "Interagency Source Control Center." If the
danger exists that he may continue to sell his spurious product, CIA
will disseminate a report 'burning" (denouncing) the agent to United
States Government Agencies and to friendly foreign intelligence
services, as a given case may require. CIA will coordinate the 'burn"
report with other interagency members controlling or using the agent.
Interagency members will then take action within their agencies in
accordance with paragraph 4 above.
To Provide Better Evaluation of Intelligence
9. On request, participating agencies will furnish one another
all relevant data on a source, and the source's access to information,
when that information is in the following categories:
a. In cases of unusual importance where decisions of
policy might be made on the basis of information reported by
the source.
b. When the content of source's report on a critical
subject or area is in distinct variance with information in
the files of the agency requesting the complete source data.
10. Requests for complete source data will be held to a minimum.
In those instances where a participating agency receives complete
source data, it will retain the data under carefully controlled
conditions, acceptable to the supplying agency, in order that it will
be made available only to U. S. officials on a strict need-to-know
basis.
To Promote the Most Effective Use of Sources
11. Participating agencies will adopt their own internal proce-
dures for eliminating unproductive sources. However, if a source
produces information which is not of value to the agency controlling
him, but which is of value to another producing agency, mutual efforts
will be Made to effect his retention or transfer.
