MEMORANDUM FOR: D/DCI/IC
FROM: DCI -
SUBJECT: Compartmentation & Security ClasTification
"I" V11,
1. Your memorandum of 29 March and your notebook on
security classification and compartmentation are both extremely
valuable. I'd like to ask a slight bit of additional help in
preparing for the next meeting with the Vice President on this
subject. Would you take Table I of the Annex - Inventory of
Intelligence Community Periodicals - and expand it in three
dimensions: ~_
a. For each of thel publications,
indicate in another column the highest
level of security classification ever
included in the publication.
b. Under the columns for "External
--National Level Customers," list the number
of copies delivered by sum X.
c. In addition to total addressees,
indicate as best as one can succinctly a
rough idea of where they go. Attach then
all the other sections of the Annex without
necessary modification, and reproduce in
ten copies for me to take to the next
meeting with the Vice President.
2. Could you also take the various appendices on compart-
mentation and brief it down markedly just to indicate the basic
divisions and the number of people cleared in each category. I
simply want to give an idea of the magnitude of the task of bringing
this under any tighter control.
