Wo have round a group or Koreans whom we consider suitable material tor our purpose, and wrinld like to selJoot from this numbers the poroonnel we will require. As you knew most Koreans are so bitterly partisan as to make them unsuitable for OSS work. These mon that we have round have therefore been selected from A large number who have been surveyod. We so not believe that we clan rim any number of others who will 4nswer our purpose. 2. Tho Koreans whom we wish to employ are civilians and aro exompt from the draft under present_regulations by reeson of their gge or for oth,,,r ftations. Many of them have dependents for whose support they 4140 responsible. We be- lieve, however, that we ean hire them at a maximum bage salary of $3600, even though a number will be taking a severe firm.- cial loss. For a number of reasons we wiah to induct them into the army. tt in necessary to give them mtIttaJ7 status for travel purposon and to insure our control ?VW' them in China. From 1,he point of view of the men themselvea this 18 dosirkhle because it offorn them the chanee of U.

In the circumstances we hereby request an excep- tion from the provisions of General Order No. 75.10, to r'mit the payment of extra compensation to such Korean recruits of this Division as will bring their total compensation from all sources up to a base salary of $3600, pus such overtime and living allowances as a Civil Service employee with that base salary would be entitled to in China. We hope to hire many of these men for lesser amounts and will treat each case indivi- dually. We believe this renuest is justified since these men are not subject to the draft and are to be inducted principally for our convenience. As to their bargaining position, they are free agents now earning as much as or more than we propose to pay, and we are satisfied that they will not enter our employ on the condition of being inducted unless they receive extra compensation up to this maximum.

After reading tbis Immo of 16 February, addressed to the Director by the Board of Review, General Donovan, on 22 rebruary 1945, called a meet- ing with Mr. Cheston, Lt. Colonel Sears and Lt. Col. Doering. 2. General Donovan stated to Colonel Sears that he had read hie memo and that it was apparent, both from the memo and from what the General had? heard from others, that Colonel Soars believed that he did not have 4 full-time job as Chairman of the Board and that he was interested in doing other work. General Donovan further said that he had understood that Jolonel Sears had looked for another assignment outside 008. The General said that he was sorry he had not known this earlier 'linos he would be glad to help Colonel Sears in finding a new assignment, either inside or outside OM if that was what Colonel Sears wanted. 3. Colonel Sears stated that it was true he did not feel that he had a full-time Job, that he be- lieved that his work on the Board ?coupled his only two hours a day and that he wouldlike to have a job where he would be busy fifteen hours a day. Ho said that he had spoken with Colonel Doubleday about a pos- sible assignment in the War Department Budget Division, but that he did not know if it would materialise. Colonel Sears said that he appreciated any assignment that he might obtain in some other unit of the 0017 might be very uninteresting compared with his work is OBS and that he would be glad to undertake any new assignment that would keep him fully occupied. Mr. Cheaton suggested that it might be a good idea to dis- cuss a possible assignment with the State Department in such work as the Combined Intelligence Objectives Committee, as we know the State Department was inte- rested in obtaining personnel for this work.

General Donovan stated that he would talk with the other members of the Board and pro- ceed accordingly. 5. The same afternoon General Donovan set with Mr. Cheston, Captain Morgan, Mr. Goddard and Lt. Colonel Doering. The General related the sub- stance of the talk with Colonel Seam He further stated that he ,felt that the work the Board had done at the present time had been invaluable, that he be- lieved that it should be continued and expanded, and that the only problem in his mind was as to the best method for channelling the information and the prob- lems to the Board so that they could function fully and effectively. He asked Captain Morgan and Mr. Goddard to consider from this standpoint who would be their choice for a third member of the Board and to consider how the work of the Board could be made more effective. Captain Morgan and Mr. Goddard indicated their agreement and undertook to ac vis the General who they desired as a third member of the Board.

TO: The Director yl SUBJECT: Functt,ms and Duties of the Board of Review 4Y r f4? i74 16 FebruerT 1945 c, ,+! Z purauant to the instructivne contained in your memorandum to the Board of Review dated 23 December 1944, the Board hes consulted approximately twenty of the Office and Branch niefs with a view to determinIna haw the functions of the Board could be of greater service in the OSS organization. As might be expected, those consulted were uniformly cooperative in their approach to the problem, but the difficulty of making certain definitions constitutes a serious obstacle to the working of the Board and it is by now convinced that it cannot carry out the terms of its mission as laid down by you under its present set up. It is quite clear that each Office and Branch Chief has a different idea of what is a project, which is not surprising considering the differences ir their activities.. Furthermore, their activi- ties in many cases do not lend themselves to being sot up in project form. The question also arises as to what extent the normal operations of a Branch should come before the Board for recommendation to you. These questions are illustrative of the subject matter of the diJcussions we have had. We report here- with on our experience and conclusions. With specific reference to Paragraph 3, Domesticyinances, of the memorandum of 20 June 1944: - (a) Items (1), (ii) and (iii) have been completed and orders issued by you upon recommendation of the Board. With reference to item (Ms the Board has not attempted to engage in auditing expenditures. A few cases have come up under (V), but these must of neoeosity have individual consideration depending upon the circumstances in each case. SECRET f*-?-? . ?
