Approved For Release 2002/06/10 : CIA-RDP61 SO075OA000200110013-2 -04947/58 Copy j of 3 rugust 1958 ORANDUM FOR: Special Assistant to the Director for Planning and Development ,ti UBJECT Items for Your information or Action as You Deem Necessary 1. New CHICOM Materials. CHICOM film (6017) arrived about 10 o'clock this morning. General Cabell requested that selected briefing materials- from that mission be available by noon, 27 August in the event that Mr. Dulles may wish to use the material with the President. I have laid this on HTAUTOMAT, will check their selection this afternoon, and it will be in my office not later than 11 o'clock ffledne sday, 27 August. 2. Processing and Reporting on Mission 6017. The processing and preparation of the PI report on Mission 25X1A 6017 took 30 hours which is not surprising. with much more experience ran from 17-30 hours for the same type of work on the B configuration. However, A.f/S SO channels were used to transmit the report which with hand encryption took 24 1/2 hours. The Air Force proposes that we now try hand carrying the report 25X1A from I land reporting it through our channel. This has been laid on. Lateral dissemination in the field will continue to 25X1 A be handled directly out of 3. Priority Requirements for Shallow Penetration. (Tab -04946/58, 20 August 1958) Because of developments no doubt already made known to you by Colonel Burke, this paper has not been discussed with General Cabell to my knowledge but is included in briefing preparations Colonel Burke has undertaken.

Needs for Tactical Coverage of the CHICOM Areas (Tab B, 'I'CS-3653-58, 25 August 1958) 25X1 C This paper was developed Monday morning. 25 August, by the ARC, each of whom checked with his boss and confirmed that this does express their agency's views. I gave the original to General Cabell this morning, 26 August, prior to the IAC in the event that the matter should come up at the IAC. He took a dim view of the daily coverage idea. I have checked further with the Navy on its view on this point, and they report that they would back down on the daily basis but if conditions remain as they are periodic coverage to meet the changing situation would meet their need. It seems to me it's a bit difficult to know at this time whether the proper period would be once a week as General Cabell suggests or perhaps in certain circumstances twice a week. Of course, weather may turn out to be the controlling factor. I have made a copy of this available to Colonel Burke and Operations DPS/DCI. 5. Sanitization of ODE Photography. (Tab C, TCS-3644-58, 20 August 1958 and TCS-3646-58) This paper has been fully coordinated with Operations DFS/DCI, 25X1 A Colonel Burke. and Mr. Lundahl and has been read in draft by the other members of the ARC. Mr. Amory has signed it. I left the paper with General Cabell this morning. It is now prepared for Mr. Dulles's signature. It may be that General Cabell will want to sign it himself, in which case I told him we would make the change for his signature. In its present form, this paper incorporates what I understood to be your sug- gestions for editing and General Cabell's own redraft in certain places, particularly the last paragraph. 6. Highest Priority Targets for Peripheral Photography. (Tab D. DRAFT SC-04893-58, 18 August 1958) 25X1A This paper will be discussed by the ARC on Thursday this week. The point of the paper, we hope, will be to make the best possible case for oblique photography that we can, keeping in mind views. No need for you to read this at this time.
