In view of the action taken by thw Joint Chiefs or

prepared, I have been advised that the Secretary ot the Navy
has approved the J.C.8.659/1.
I concur in Captain Coolidge's recommordoition. Pur.

This memorandum appeara to represent the
culmination of a systematically developed effart
the part of the Coat Guard to take over the Emer-
gency Rescue Equipment activities. Early in our
oi.erations they were annoyed by recommendttlons oritiaal
of so-called life saving suits ELnd lite preserver light
which they had previously approved and issued..
I recommend that, if the Secretary of the
Navy approves this J.C.S. 669/1, OSS withdraw lite
personnel, funds, and equipment as rapidly as pose 1*
consistent with an orderly handling of transfer arrang
merits.

A oopy of the abashed comrunlestion frat
the Joint Chiefs has been 4hown to Capt. Ilarold CottIldpi
and has been diocussed with\him. It to his undekrOanding
that this abolition of prose t worangemests is tint
step toward a complete Wrest ot amitrgeney reeell*
work with 088 omitted from the picture. Him prettent
information indicates that subsequent to attolitionl or
the coAmittee, an alternative plan will be considsmed
and eventually will be put into effeot in such a way
that the Navy alone will be handling the matter.,
Although Capt. Coolidge Is of (vow** dosirou*
that the work be continued and that OS continue to
play its part, he has the immediate problam of what to
do about the personnel, space and materiel faciIittes
which are devoted to this work. Accordingly, he la
most anxious to secure any clarification which could
be had from the Joint Chiefs as to any alternative plans
which are to be considered and whether those call for
any participation by 058. You may thererere wish to
ask Mr. Cheaton to seek claritioation tram Colo Irldley,
No formal reply to the communication would
seem to be necessary.

FROM; Edwin J. Plazioa, Jr*
SUBJECT: Memorstr..........A....4..,eum Ecttleratna R s jitzt
My comments on t ottachtd, mamorundUM
are two in numt4r:
(1) Apparently it is contan214ted tratt,
all administrative detalla nith reCerenao t*
operation of the Committee and its activities
will be handled by the Information Exchamm4
Isn't that stretching the customary dutieS
of such an Information i.iJcchane a little bit
far?
(2) It would &ppear to one viewing the
suoject from where I stand that an OSS dudget
of $78,490 for the fiscal jear 1944, in connec-
tion with the operation cf the Information
Exchange. Exhibit and Te:thnical Literature
Research Sections, is rather large. A staff
of twenty-two Civil ScrvLce emrloyee3, in
addition to the pecial Juty Staff, whidh
may be assigned for part- or full-time duty
by other services or Government Agenctes# ia
quite a sizeable group for a Committee of
this nature which is just beginning to runcticrt.
