MEMCRANDUM FOR: Mr.. Allen Dulles, Director
of Central Intelligence
Attention:
Subject: L'ud et Analysis on Overt intelligence
Collection.
This is a reply to your memorandum of Januar
__,
1955 on the above subject, addressed to the intelligence
Advisory Committee. The draft has been reviewed and in
general is concurred in. However, it is believed that
the two modifications stated below would improve the
paper for submission to the bureau of the .budge,
A statement on external research coordination,
suggested by R as an addition to the December version of
the paper, was not incorporated in the current draft.
R's external research activity has been Included in the
cost tabulation, and it was believed, therefore, that
some reference to a coordinated collection program would
be pertinent in the accompanying narrative. I still
believe that the paper would be improved by the inclusion
of a brief statement on external research, but this
addition is left to your discretion.
The following rewrite of sub-section b. PUbl?gdlion
Pr
c
o
urement on page 10 is suggested:
"Full coordination of publications
procurement in the field by all pertinent U. S.
representatives abroad is desirable and neces-
sary to utilize available resources fully and
to prevent duplication of procurement in
response to general requirements. Many
requirements are now being coordinated in
Washington by the Procurement Sub-Committee

Approved For Release 2 /08/26 : Cl tscaff000200OW07-2
established under NSCID-lc, but some separa
channels still exist."
I believe that the above revision strengthens the draft
but does not alter the sense in a manner which would
require further coordination.
