"?S'd?fir 1111 8d -Approved For a ease :'C`IA-RDP62-006808000200150014-6 Office Memorandum ? UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT TO Special Assistant to Chief, Geographic Research DATE: 11 June 19.8 FROM : Acting Chief, Geography Division SUBJECT : Urban Area Program Attachment A is a list of urban area studies and related studies and town plans worked on by the Geography Division. No studies are listed as having been turned. down. It should be recalled, however, that in early 1955 DD/P requested us to pre- pare urban area studies at the rate of 50 a year. Fulfillr~ment of the request was predicated upon an increase of personnel_ for the Geographic Area and the subcontracting of some of the work. Those plans fell through. The DD/P requirement was eventually reduced to approximately 10 per year. '(See Attachment B.) Due to other demands on the Division, it has not been possible to fulfill even this reduced request. Changing DD/P targets and personnel also cause changes in programming of urban area studies from time to time. Recent conversations with FI personnel never- theless indicate a continuing interest in the urban area program. 25X1A9a Sanitized - Approved For Release CIA-RDPA2-00680R000200150014-6 25Xl itized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-0068OR000200150014-6 Sanitized - Approved For Release : CIA-RDP62-0068OR000200150014-6
