O t Version 02 lino 14 8. The ut1ine ot duties as ginelly written in S. 102 is subject to various interpretations and does not clearly define the responsibilities of the Central Intelligence Agenoy. The entire outline has been deleted and a disoription of the duties and rssponai. bilities of the Central Intelligence Ageney has been substituted which follows closely the wording of tho Xxecutive Order s$ttb1ihin the Central Intent- genes Group. The bill in its original form provid.d that the Central Intelligence Agency shall in no way relieve the existing intelligence agencies of their responsi- bilities; for, or authority over, intel/i gene, work under their jurisdiction. This provision has been revised to provide that intelligence responsi- bilities of the departments and other &genet.' shall not be affected except as they at be relieved of authorities and responsibilities by the Central Intelligence Agency pursuant to authority provided in subsection (b). The sub. section referred to provides that tho Central Agency perform such ittelligen serviees of common concern as ths Council of Common Wenn* determines cap be more efficiently accomplished by the Agency.

Rww sub?paragraph (f) covering the responsibility of the Director for protecting intelligence sources and methods. Provides for en executive secretary to be appointed by the President, with the advice and consent of tcle Senate, con. pensation to be at the rate of $10,000 per annum. Also provides that such secretary may, with the approval of the Director of the Central Agency employ the services of part tins advisory personnel. The foregoing has been deleted and no provision substituted therefor. It is believed to be unneveaseey and undesirable to have an executive eecretary appointed by the President to serve under the Director of Central Intelligence. It ie further believed that the executive seoretery should be and can be appointed by the Director of Central Intelligense under the provisions of subsection a (Item 2 above). It is also believed that subsection a will permit employment of sueh part il4e advisory personnel aa may be deemed necessary. As originally stated the b 1 provides that the Central Intelligence Agency make use of the facilities and services of the Depertmente of State, Treasury, Justice War, Wavy, Air and other Governmental agencies available for intelligence work and authorises and directs suoh agencies to make such faoilities and services available and to participate to the fullest extent in the objectives of the agencies. The fornoing has been revived but retains the same requirements and a paragraph has been added (e) which provides that the intelligence operations of the department* and agencies shell be open to inspection by the Director in connection with planning operations of the Agency, and the intelli gone. possessed by such departments and Approved For Release 2000/08/23 : CIA-RDP64-00658A000100030004-1 Approved For Relelne 2000/08/23 : CIA-RDP64-00658A000100030004-1 fit 4 Version 02 line 19 8, liee eneies shall be nude freely ami1b1e Director for correlation, tion or disseminatien?
