NSCID No. 5-clearly establishes the primary responsibility of C/A for -
the conduct of U.S. espionage and counterintelligence activities abroad,
while at the same time providing the necessary authority for the armed
services to engage in such activities in support of their oWn requirements.
Service participation in clandestine activities has long been recognized etd
welcomed by CIA. It was provided for in the original NSCID-5,by the some-
what vague term "agreed activities," which Wins then necessary to define
and expand in
which
served as a corollary to the original NSCID 5. To the extent that the nee

8 January 1958
MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
This office was not notified in any way by CIA of the specific
time of the IAC meeting on 7 January, but was under the impression that
it was to be held at 2:30 that date. Preparations were made to have OSO
representation at this IAC meeting on NSCIDs 5, 13 and 14. In the
case of NSCID 5, the only one of the threeP6CIDs concerning which this
office had any real change proposals to make, the undersigned had prepared
some proposed changes, concurred in by all members of the OSO office
(see attached comments on NSCID 5).
It was discovered around noon of the 7th that the IAC meeting had
actually been held at 1045. A check with the Office of General
Truscott, the CIA IAC Secretariat, and with CIA coordi-
nator for these NSCIDs that this office had not been notified in any
way of the time, and had had this responsibility.
apologized for his failure to notify this office of the
time of the IAC meeting and agreed, after discussion with General
Truscott, to include, based on the desire of DOD, the change proposed
by this office in paragraph 2'd contained in the attached OSO comments
on revised draft of NSCID 5. Other proposed changes are, admittedly,
not of sufficient importance to require TAG discussion.
The next IAC meeting, on 21 January, will i elude sCID 5 and all
the NSCIDs in final discussion as a "package."

MEMO FOR THE RECORD
I telephoned CIA, re: results
of the 5 November 1957 meeting of the IAC on
NSCID 5 at which Mr. William Smith, OSO, was
present and where certain members agreed to -
submit further position papers.
said he gathered that Army (General Schow)
and JIG (General Collins) were the only ones
to submit such papers and that he would send
these new views, as well as CIA's comments
on them, to OSO for our own office coordination
and comments prior to making any changes in
a new draft of NSCID 5 for action by the
IAC.
