Register between 8 May and 19 June, 1951. 3. Findings of the Survey: The following are the outstanding items: a. Unique industrial and biographic data exist in very great quantity many different stations under jurisdiction of the IAC agencies and the ECA. These should be carefully screened by competent specialists, and those of greatest importance should be microfilmed for IAC use in Washington. b. Unclassified publications of great importance to economic research are to be found in any stations, ,hough not available in Washington. They include such items as manu- facturers' catalogs, trade directories, and local publications. Many are readily procurable through open channels overseas. They should. be carefully screened, and direct procurement of the important items should be undertaken. c. U.S. officials overseas feel even more keenly than those in Washington the need for a coordinated effort to bring together, safeguard, and analyze the industrial and biographic data in their custody. 25X1 4, CIA has equipped, and staffed a Microfilm Team for this purpose under the leadership of 11 ill depart for Europe 25X1 on or about 13 August 195 to be followed in a week or zen days by the members of the team. 25X1 S-E-C- i-E-T IAC-D-19 1 7 August 1951 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059A000100030001-6 25X1 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 TAB Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 25X1 L Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Next 1 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 TAB Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 25X1 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Next 5 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 TAB Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 25X1 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 TAB Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 S-E-C-R-E-T Security Information IAC -D -67 18 February 1953 INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS 1.

In order most effectively to strengthen the national facilities for the timely recognition and the appropriate handling of true indications of hostile action, and to minimize the concomitant dangers alluded to above, the Panel recommends: a. That the national security agencies take immediate steps to strip the Unidentified Flying Cbjects of the special status they have been given and the aura of mystery they have unfortunately acquired; b. That the national security agencies institute policies on intelligence, training, and public education designed to prepare the material defenses and the morale of the country to recognize most promptly and to react most effectively to true indications of hostile intent or action. We suggest that these aims may be achieved by an integrated program designed to reassure the public of the total lads of evidence of inimical forces behind the phenomena, to train w~ersonnel to recognize and reject false indications quickly and effectively, and to strengthen regular channels for the evaluation of and pros-apt reaction to true indications of hostile measures.

S. Information Agency's Intelligence Needs 1. The Director of Central Intelligence, on request of the Director of the U. S. Information Agency, and with the full support of the Department of State, has agreed to appoint an officer to conduct a survey of the U. S. Information Agency's essential intelli- gence needs. It is recognized that the U. S. Information Agency, in view of its recently acquired independent status, has a need for intelligence in order to fulfill its overseas information mission. Likewise, the U, S. Information Agency can probably provide resources useful to the Intelligence community. 2. There is attached at Tab A the Terms of Reference for this survey, which will be conducted under the direction of Mr. Richard Bissell, Special Assistant to the DCI for Planning and Coordination. 3. It will be of undoubted assistance to the successful conclu- sion of this survey to have the advice of the IAC members and such information as they may have which bears on this question. Moreover, many IAC agencies have related needs for intelligence in support of propaganda and psychological warfare and an interest in the effects of any proposed arrangements on the respective agencies. Hence it would be appreciated if each IAC member would notify the undersigned as to a representative with whom Mr. Bissell's designee may work.

Copy of. subject report is attached. It was transmitted by the DCI to the Director, USIA, on 23 July, and accepted by the latter on 30 July 1954. 2. The IAC will note that three recommendations require IAC action. One of these (Part 1, paragraph 4c, page 4, and Tab A, paragraph A) is that the IAC approve a proposed distribution of NIE's and NIS to USIA. IAC action on the recommendation respecting NIS is being sought through IAC-D-45/55, to be circulated 6 August. IAC action on the recommendation respecting NIE's is being sought through IAC-D-82/2, to be circulated 6 August. .3. The other two recommendations requiring IAC action (Part 1, paragraph 4b, page 4, and Part 2, paragraph 4, page 5) are that the IAC approve the statement of "Types of Intelligence and Intelligence Information Required to Meet USIA's Essential Needs" (Part. i, paragraph 3c, pp. 1-3) as (a) the basis for providing intelli- gence and intelligence information needed by USIA. and (b) as a. basis for providing intelligence support to meet related needs of other agencies. The IAC will be asked to approve these two recommenda- tions at an early meeting.

Tab E, Which are quoted in their entirety herein. ) Part 1 Intelligence Needs IDENTIFICATION OF INTELLIGENCE NEEDS 1. Problem: To identify the types of intelligence and intelligence information required to meet the U, S. Information Agency's essential needs. 2. Discussion: Consideration' of this problem has included the question: "What are the U. S. Information Agency's essential intelligence needs to support its policy, programs, field and. media operations, evalu- ation and training?" Each of these six major functional areas of USIA will need, in varying degrees, intelligence of the types listed below. In the case of USIA's evaluation of its program, it has been found by the Survey to be especially necessary to distinguish' between. the function of making. evaluation judgments and the function of providing intelligence essential to such judgments. 3. Conclusions:. a. The types of intelligence and intelligence information required to:x eet USIA's essential needs have been identified as set forth in paragraph c below. (These types, deal solely with foreign intelligence or intelli.- gence information and do not deal with USIA's needs. for " "Americana, " i. e., domestic information on the U. S.) b. The required intelligence is not now adequate in character, and particularly in quantity, to meet the needs. c. USIA has essential:needs for the following types of intelligence and- intelligence information: 1) Selected segments of 'societies: selected classes, groups, organizations (public and. private), and: their leadership, present and potential. a) Size, composition, ideologies and attitudes, predis- posifi'ons,'a' d reactions to! (1) the Vtdted States, the USSR and other countries. of:gr.eatbst significance and Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CII4=RDP67-00059A000100030001-6 CONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Part 1 Intelligence Needs Conclusions, (continued) their basic policies, (2) critical foreign and internal problems. b) The patterns of influence among groups, organizations, and leaders (including the government); specifically, who is 'influential, on whom, how, and how much. 2) Media Research and-Analysis: a) Communications habits and types of media in the country (press, publications, radio, motion pictures, TV). b) Organizational aspects of each medium, including location, key personnel, finance, distribution and exhibition outlets, and a description-of the facilities of the media. c) The political orientation of the media. d) The content of the communications output by the media. e) Location, size and type of audience receiving the output of the media. f) The reactions of the audience to the media, and why. Foreign Propaganda, both friendly and unfriendly, including exchange of persons or cultural exchange. a) Facilities and personnel. b) Program content and plans. c) Estimates of probable courses of foreign propaganda. d) Analyses of foreign propaganda vulnerabilities. 4) Impact of factors affecting public opinion and attitudes and the net impact of such .factors on the people of a country. Such factors would include historical attitudes of a people, and the influence of current domestic and foreign official and unofficial activities. 5) Descriptive Detail, that is, unclassified or declassified intelli- gence information to supplement the content of USIA. media with items of local interest in order to make the output appear more interesting and more authoritative, particularly in denied areas.

International Communism: a) International organizations, personalities, programs, fiscal support, methods and success or failure of operations. b) Local applications, including counterespionage infor- mation, with emphasis on communications facilities. d. It is recognized that intelligence and intelligence information perti- nent to the needs described above can usefully be provided USIA in the following three basic forms of intelligence, which are normally used for production for other purposes: 1) Intelligence Estimates, including National Intelligence Estimates (intelligence covering the broad aspects of national policy and national security) and estimates of probable developments, capabilities and intentions re- garding specific countries or areas 2) Basic Intelligence, including National Intelligence Surveys, that is, factual intelligence which results from the colla- tion of encyclopedic information of a more or less permanent or static nature and general interest which, as a result of evaluation and interpretation,. is determined to be the best available. Current Intelligence, that-is, spot information or intelli- gence of all types and forms of immediate interest and value to operating or policy staffs, which is used by them usually without the delays incident to complete evaluation or interpretation. 4) Intelligence Reports' nn Specialised Subj cts e. USIA needs certain intelligence publications currently produced by the IAC agencies. A list of such publications, with recom- mended distribution, is attached at Tab A. No elements of.USIA, especially Field and Media operations, should be sent masses of intelligence. Rather.- annotated bibliog- raphies of available finished intelligence (e.g., Annex C to Tab I, Annex B to Tab J) should be made available to the media and the field for their review and selection of those items which they wish to have made available for their review and possible retention.

Problem: To determine the extent to which the types of intelligence and telligence information required,to meet the essential needs of USIA are related to the essential needs of other US programs. Discussion: Consideration of this problem has included the original specific question: "Is the intelligence and intelligence information required to support a covert psychological warfare program and the US Information Agency program so similar that it, could be provided most efficiently by a single organization? If ego, where should that organization be?" It has become clear in the course of the Survey that this question is too4imited and should be inclusive, as is the statement of the problem above, of other related US pro grams. (The relationship of foreign propaganda analysis to other intelligence sup- port is being studied separately from this survey.) 3. Conclusions: a. The types of intelligence and intelligence information identified as required to meet the essential needs of USIA are substantially. those required to meet the needs of CIA/DDP4except for detailed 25X1 "operational intelligence" and "CE information,. which should be provided by DDP), the Public Affairs Staff of the State Department,: and to a lesser extent (because of requirements bearing upon enemy military personnel, which should be met by the military intelligence agencies) the "psywar" programs of the Armed Services. b. Therefore, to the extent that these types of intelligence and intel- ligence information meet the needs Of agencies. with related missions, these agencies should be served'in the main by a single organization :(See Part 3) .

Arrangements ORGANIZATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS Problem: To recommend the organizational arrangements, and sources and magnitude of funds, required to provide the US Information Agency with such essential intelli- gende and intelligence information as can be obtained and which can be made, available. 2. . Discussion:` Consideration of this problem has included the following questions: a. Are the. present mechanise sand, the interdepart- mental arrangements adequately responsive .to the U.S. Information Agency's essential needs ? b. What present facilities and resources in the Gov- ernment not now utilized by or. made available to the U. S. Information Agency could be more effectively utilized by the U. S. Information Agency' in order to satisfy its intelligence needs ? c. If the U. S. Information Agency needs an intelli- gence staff, what should be the order of magnitude of such a staff ? d. Should the U.S. Information Agency be a member of the IAC 7 e. Are revisions required in' NSC Intelligence Direc- tives f, What security arrangements are required to meet solutions to the above problems, and in particular, how can the needs of the U. S. Information Agency for de- classification of pertinent intelligence. best be achieved? 3. Conclusions a. The intelligence required for USIA activities does not differ in and from the intelligence required to support the political, econo- mic, and military activities.of the government. USIA does, however, require. the intelligence identified in Part 1, paragraph 3r above, with an emphasis, a detail, and a form not normally required in intelli- gence produced for other purposes.

In the main, provision of the types of intelligence and intelligence information required to meet the essential needs of USIA has been the primary responsibility of the Department of State, which has utilized its own resources and those resources supported or contributed by other agencies, as established in NSCID-3. Production by State has, of course, been supplemented by productionby other intelligence units maintained by agencies with related, needs. c. The total.available intelligence of the types required by USIA and similar comsumers has been inadequate in character, and particularly in quantity, to meet the needs of these consumers. This inadequacy has been most marked with respect to basic intelligence and special reports based thereon (as distinguished from intelligence estimates and current intelligence.) Therefore the production of basic intelligence in the fields set forth in Part 13. c above should be increased, along with that of special reports based substantially thereon. The USIA should also be given wider access to intelligence estimates and to current intelligence as recommended in Part 14. d above to meet its needs for these forms of intelligence. d. On the basis of the allocation of responsibilities within the Intelli- gence Community presently set forth in NSCID'3, the Department of State should continue to provide the major part of the intelligence required by the USIA, and by other consumers with similar needs. If it is to dis- charge this function, its production of intelligence should be increased mainly by an expansion of the NIS both topically and in depth of detail, 'particularly to include increased and more adequate intelligence on "International Communism.'' e. To meet its remaining needs, the USIA should have an intelligence organization designed to ensure that full use is made of the resources of the intelligence community and to be responsive to those USIA needs which cairinot be met by the community. The recommended functions and TbO for a USIA intelligence organization are set forth at Tab B and Annex A thereto4 "Intelligence" means foreign intelligence in this survey. Nevertheless, USIA may find it desirable to include in the proposed USIA intelligence organization the function of providing "Americana, " i. e., domestic information on the U. S. f. In drawing a definite line between the State Department's function of providing basin intelligence and special reports and that of the USIA's Approved For Release 2004/06/247 CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 CONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Part 3 Organizational Arrangements 25X1 25X1 intelligence organization, the basic principle should be to ensure the fullest use of the Department of State's analytical staff and to avoid any duplication by the new USIA organization. Accordingly, the State Department should continue to produce such special reports and analyses required by USIA and similar consumers as can efficiently be turned out by the Department's analytical staff without competing with its basic responsibilities or its ability to meet the State Department's own specialized needs. In general terms the analytical functions of the proposed USIA intelligence organization should be limited to: (a) the tailoring of basic intelligence to its special needs, and (b) the per- formance of analyses which by reason of some special circumstances cannot efficiently and conveniently be performed elsewhere in the intelligence community. g. The Survey has found it especially necessary to distinguish between the function of making evaluation judgments and that of providing the intelligence essential to such judgments (see Part I, paragraph 2 above), and has concluded.;.P.would not be desirable to place the responsibility for making evaluation judgxrients on the USIA's programs within the USIA intelligence organization. That responsibility properly. should be integrated with the executive functions of the Agency or discharged by a separate staff. h. USIA operations in the field (USIS) require intelligence support; in addition to such support as can be provided from Washington, some local support can be provided. The needs for such support and the possibilities of meetin those needs locally vary greatly between posts and programs. j. USIA should not become a member of the IAC at this time because: (1) It is not believed that the contribution which USIA could make to National Intelligence Estimates is one which would be sufficiently different from the contributions of the present IAC members.

(3) Whenever matters within the purview of USIA are to be discussed by the IA.C, the DCI can invite USIA participation, as provided in NSCID-l. (Similar USIA representation should be obtained by the I AC subcommittees on basic intelligence defectors, and foreign language publications.) k. The question of IAC membership should be reexamined after a sufficient amount of time has passed for the implementation of this report. 1. No revisions in the NSCIDs are required to enable the intelligence needs of the USIA and similar consumers to be adequately met as proposed in this Survey, that is in a manner which reflects the present allocation of responsibilities as among the various agencies that make up the intelligence community. M. To obtain the intelligence and intelligence information required to meet its essential needs, the USIA should make such adjustments as are necessary in its security standards for personnel and handling of information. Recommendations: a. That the Department of State, as the appropriate agency under NSCID-3, expand and redirect the resources of its intelligence organization so as to accomplish the additional production, princi- pally under the NIS program, recommended above. This will require the use for these purposes of additional funds and personnel over and above those now available in the Department of State or elsewhere. Eventually the additional outlay required under the NIS program might amount tol or possibly even more. Because of pro- blems of recruitment and production planning, however, only to I land 30 to 40 additional slots over and above those originally budgeted will be required for these purposes in the Fiscal Year 1955. Except insofar as these resources can be made available by the curtail- ment of other activities in the Department of State's intelligence organization or elsewhere, the necessary funds should be provided by the Central Intelligence Agency through the NIS program pending. a reexamination of the method of financing that program. 25X1 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 CONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Part3 Organizational Arrangements b. That USIA establish an intelligence organization, separate from the Department of State, with functions and, organization, as set forth in Tab B and Annex A to Tab B, and with funds provided by USIA's regular appropriations. Until a sufficient amount of time has passed for the implementation of this report the organization should have a T/O of an order of magnitude of 70 to 90 positions. c. That the following organizations now under the administration of USIA be abolished: CPI, VOA Library & Research, Photo and IPS Libraries, and that part of IEV which has been engaged inthe collection and production of intelligence. The slots and money thus freed will be enough to meet a T/O of the order of magnitude described above. d.

Problem: To recommend measures to insure that such intelligence or intelligence information produced or collected by the U. S. Information Agency is made available to the IAC agencies. 2. Discussion: Consideration of this problem has included the questions: "Is there any important intelligence available uniquely to the U. S. ;Information Agency which is not known to the intelligence' community? Is there likely to be any such under new arrangements?" 3. Conclusions: a. USIS missions are in a position to add significantly to the collection of intelligence information for USIA and related consumers. b. Requirements upon USIS x d.ssions. for such collection should be carefully drawn, levied in moderation, and coordinated in Washington by USIA with the Department of State, c. In the field USIS reporting should be coordinated with reporting by other sections of the Embassy. d. USIA should screen and disseminate its intelligence and intelligence information to .U. S. agencies concerned. e. USIA may well develop information. collecting techniques useful to related programs and t? intelligence. Such nformation and techniques should be made available to U.

By an exchange of letters in April 1954 (Tabs C and D) the Director of Central Intelligence and the Director of the United States Information Agency agreed that the former should conduct a survey of USIA's intelligence needs and assets and submit recommendations on how those needs should be met and those assets used. The terms of reference for the Survey are at Tab E. 2. The DCI appointed, as Director of the Survey, Mr. Richard Bissell, Special Assistant to the Director for Planning and Coordination. 3. To accomplish his assignment, Mr. Bissell established his survey team which devoted the major part of its time to the conduct of the survey during the eight weeks which then ensued. 4. The IAC Agencies were invited to participate. (Tab F, IAC-D-82). In addition, Mr. Bissell requested USIA, the Operations Coordinating Board, and DDP/CIA to designate an official in their respective areas on whom the Survey could call for assistance and advice, and who would be in a position to arrange for interviews and conferences with their officials who had an interest in the problems faced by the Survey. 5. The following are the officials who were thus appointed: USIA OCB DDP/CIA IAC /State: Army: Navy: Mr. Henry Loomis Dr. Horace S. Craig Mr. Fisher Howe Mr. Yaro J. Skalnik Lt. Comdr. A. Christopher Major Thomas B. Johnson - 12 - Approved For Release 2004/06/24 I/ f p AAQ0059A000100030001-6 Approved.For Release 2004/069QNf(fi2 1$, t-00059A000100030001-6 JIG; AEC: FBI: Captain P. C. Staley, USN Dr. Charles Reichardt Mr. Meffert W. Kuhrtz 25X1 6. As may be observed from the records of interviews and conferences, Mr. Loomis, Mr. Howe, Mr. Craig andi were invited to attend as observers as many Survey meetings as possible, since the solutions to the problems would require primarily the understanding and cooperation of the most interested agencies represented by these officials. They were of course, free to ask questions and to enter into the discussions. 7. In conducting its investigation to determine the needs for intelligence: on the part of USIA, the Survey Team initially sought to understand as fully as possible the functions of the various components of USIA, to discern what they considered were their needs, and to help them articulate needs previously onlyevaguely phrased. 8. The Survey Team interviewed or held conferences with over 100 individuals from'all components of USIA /Washington, VOA /New York,(where two days were spent), the Department of State (Public Affairs Staff, Political desks, Intelligence area), ;Operations Coordinating Board (staff), CIA /DD?P, PAOs, USIS Missions in Europe' (Ten.:days to coverr London, Paris, Vienna, . unich)'and in' Latin America (Ten days to cover Rio, Trinidad,.. andMexico City.) (See Tab G.) 9. The Survey Team reviewed examples of both raw and finished intelligence in this field, as well as documents bearing upon the organizational aspects of this problem.' A"selectiox of the latter is listed at Tab H. 10. In order to relate the statement of need to specific USIA operations, Thailand and India were selected as case studies.

In view .of the U. S. Information Agency's mission and functions, as stated in the U. S. Information and -Educational .Exchange Act of 1948, as amended; in the President's Message to the Congress of 1 June 1953, and in NSC 165/1, 24 October 1953, the survey shall: a. Identify the types of intelligence and intelligence information required to meet the U. S. Information Agency's essential needs. b. Recommend the organizational arrangements, and sources and magnitude of funds, required to provide the U. S. Information Agency with such essential intelli- gence and intelligence information as can be obtained and which can be made available. c. Recommend measures to insure that such in- telligence or intelligence information produced or col- lected by the U. S. Information Agency is made available to the IAC agencies. In conducting the survey, the related needs of all intelligence agencies for similar intelligence and intelligence information should be taken into account, as well as the resources both in Washington and in the field. 2. Among specific problems to be included in the survey are: 1) What are the U. S. Information Agency's essential intelligence needs to support its policy, programs, field and media operations, evaluation and training? 2) Are the present mechanisms and interdepartmental arrangements adequately responsive to the U. S. Informa- tion Agency's essential needs? 3) What present facilities and resources in the Gov- ernment not now utilized by or made available to the U. S. Info*mation Agency could be more effectively utilized by 24- Approved For Release 2004/06/240,Q7fAL00059A000100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004106124cW -%059A000100030001-6 the U. S.

That a bibliographical statement of the existing intelligence production relevant to the types of intelli- gence needed by 'USIA should be sent to the field for the selection of those items which would be of greatest likely use. b. In the development of an operational plan.for India, an intelligence annex should be developed, based upon the findings in the Thailand case study and adapted to meet the peculiar needs of India. The terms of reference for such an annex are attached at Annex A hereto. c. That there were possibilities for PAO reporting but that requirements for such reporting should be carefully drawn, levied in moderation, and fulfilled in full cooperation with the Embassy.

It should be noted that in no case would a National Intelligence Estimate or Special Estimate be permitted to go to a foreign national staff. The document produced by the Intelligence Committee even though it were identic with the U. S. National Estimate would be transmitted to the major commands or to the foreign national staffs without any formal identification of origin or connection with the United States Government other than U. S. concurrence in any NATO estimate, 4+. Under present arrangements SHAPE.is authorized to request contri- butions on area intelli ence from the National Staffs. Insofar as such requests dea strict Wi military intelligence, the support is provided by the JIC or by the competent Service agency. In other cases the support required may take on the character of a National Intelligence Estimate. It is understood that upon transmittal of the latter category of intelligence by JIC to SHAPE, SHAPE would presumably, with its own staff, produce its on intelligence estimate out of the national contributions.

Government has supported the de'+relopmei t and t b- lishment of NATO because of its estimate that in the face of Soviet policy it is only by combining their resources tkat the Westc nations can frustrate Soviet designs and at the *ame ti maintain a free society. Action by the 12 members of NATO in gearing theme el+es economically, militarily, and :morally to the tasks at hand is dependent upon a common appreciation of the facts co4ceaning the Soviet ezd Its preparations for war, its capabilities, and its intentions. 4. The U. S. Government,. while geographically most remote from the Soviet orbit, has been most concerned about the Soviet problem. As the single nation with the material and moral resources necessary, the U. S. has found it necessary to take the leadership in virtually all fields of the common effort. This leadership can be strengthened and made more. effective if it is fully extended to the intelligence sphere as well. One of the main problems the U. S. has had with respect to NATO has been to convince them that the Soviet menace is not so vast as to make Western resistance pointless, Joint strategic intel- ligence and guidance can be of immeasurable value in the resolution of these problems, S-E-C-R-E-T IAC D39-39/ 11 December 1951 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059A000100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059A000 ` - ` a Security Information IAC-D-39/1 11 December 1951 5. Furthermore the U. Si. is the only country with sufficiently comprehensive and reliable intelligence resources to provide a reason- ably accurate appraisal of Soviet strength, capabilities and intentions. DISCUSSION 6. The U. S. must support NATO with strategic intelligence for two reasons: a. To discharge our obligation to provide to the Standing Group the best strategic. intelligence and guidance available to support and direct the combined military strategic planning and secondarily to make ;known to the major NATO commands the strategic intelligence upon which strategic planning is based; and b. To assist the NATO nations to properly and accurately assess the Soviet menace. (. The United States Government is currently making available to the U. S. Member, Standing Group, Intelligence Committee, through JIG appropriate intelligence of all the agencies and of the IAC. It is also making available to SHAPE for tabling: a, sanitized summaries of Watch Committee reports;. b. military intelligence; c, a political-economic summary prepared by the Depart- ment of State's intelligence area; do certain portions of the National Intelligence Surveys.. Specifically with respect to national strategic intelligence estimates, support for NATO has been confined to the following: a. making NIE's and SE's available to the U. S. Member for his background in dealing with the other members of the Intelli- gence Committee; b* assisting in the preparation of an initial overall estimate for the Standing Group; c. the preparationiof SE-16 in response to a specific request of the U.

Underlying our decision regarding the substance of our strategic intelligence support of NATO and the method to be used for providing it are these major considerations: a. Need for cooperation: It is clear that NATO cannot meet the crisis which it faces if its members are mutually suspicious that each is holding back from the other his true purposes or his true estimate of the situation. A genuinely cooperative attitude is an essential if the personal relationships of members of the Standing Group, the Intelligence Committee, and the major NATO commands are to generate harmony which is required for joint action. This problem has been faced in practically all our participation in international organizations, b. Need for U, S, leadership: Because of the limited resources of most of the NATO governments tto produce intelligence information and high quality national estimates, U. S. intelligence has the large share of producing strategic intelligence. As the chief con- tributor to NATO intelligence, the U. S. must be scrupulous in its effort to contribute to the common cause the maximum which other considerations will permit, Because it has greater resources for collection, collation, and estimating than any other of the NATO powers its obligation to assume leadership in this respect is undeniable. c. Appropriateness of U. S. strategic intelligence to NATO .needs: National Intelligence Estimates as currently prepared by the IAC are designed to meet the needs of the President and U. S. ,policy officials, Frequently the way these estimates are written is stimulated by, and therefore directed toward, the requirements of U. S. policy. This may be to respond to an existing situation, to take the initiative with respect to a developing situation, or to create a situation to our advantage in our relations with the enemy, our allies, or the neutrals. Such intelligence estimates might well be inappropriate, from the U. S. point of view, for meeting NATO needs (although they might influence the other nations to our advantage) unless they were carefully selected and their use was surrounded with adequate restrictions. Strategic intel- ligence for NATO should be pointed toward the strategic questions facing NATO although in some cases these may coincide with the immediate questions facing the United States Government. To obtain maximum U. S. strategic intelligence support for NATO with the least expenditure of our limited personnel and resources requires us to use if at all possible what we have already -3_ S-E-C-R-E-T IAC-D-39 1 11 December 1951 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AOOO Security Information IAC-D-391 11 December 1951 produced, taking into account: (e.) the danger of divulging prematurely a U. S. policy move; (b) the security consideration. d. Security: In any dissemination of U. S.. intelligence to foreign governments in addition to the obvious hazard of tipping the U. S. policy hand prematurely to our allies there is the more serious danger of malicious or unintentional leak to the USSR. The foreign national members of the Standing Group, the Intelligence Committee and the major NATO commands have an international character and are either morally bound or sworn not to divulge to their nationa:. staffs intelligence or other information having to do strictly with the international or collective business of NATO. On the other hand it is understandable and entirely probable that in retaining their relationships to their national staffs (highly necessary to main- tain and develop vitality and viability of the international groups) there will be some unauthorized revelation of information. It is difficult to provide assurances comparable to that effected within this Government that no such leaks either malicious or unintentional will occur because: (1) these foreign nationals with international responsibility have not been subjected to security investigation equal to our own, and (2) they possess a dual. role as international and national officials. Any arrangement, therefore, for the trans- mission of U. S. national strategic intelligence must either be based on faith that no disclosure will occur or upon recognition that some d-ieclosure is inevitable and that, special estimates will have to be prepared for NATO or existing ones will have to be expurgated. It is noteworthy that this problem is more acute for the United States than for other countries because of its larger potential contribution to the common fund of intelligence and because, on account of the U. S. power position, the USSR would consider a U. S. intelligence estimate of much more value to them than one representing the views of any other country.

In keepin; with the present policy of the United States which associates this country with other Governments in political and military cooperation, it is essential to provide these -overnrnents with U. S. national intelligence where such action will contribute to the security of the United States. 2. Heretofore national intelligence has been Given some forei&n disse.iination, on a highly selective basis, to a fear other foreign overnments and NATO bodies. This has been done under the authority of the Director of Central Intelligence as inferred from the National Security Act of l"'.47 and the National Security Council Intelligence Directives. The volume of intelligence that can and should be released to certain foreign Govern- rients has become so considerable, however, that the National Sec-Lrity Council is requested to grant sortie specific authorization and clearly fig: the responsibility for the disseriination of national intelligence to f ore. novernr,lents . 3. It is therefore proposed that paragraph 5 of NSCID-1 be desiGnated 5(a) and that the followinG be inserted: Paragraph 5(b) - Unless otherwise provided by law or NSC Directive, the Director of Central Intelligence is authorized to 25X6 S-E-C-R-1 -T IAC-D- 0 1 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-OQQ5i Q GjW1-6 Approved For Release 2004/06/24: CIA-RDP67-00059AO00100030001-6 S-E-C-R-E-T Security Information IAC-D-40/l 4 February 1952 disseminate National Intelligence on a strictly controlled basis to foreign governments and international bodies upon determination by the Director of Central Intelligence, concurred in by the Ixtelligence Advisory Ccrsmittee, that such action would substan- tially promote the security of the United States provided that any disclosure of classified military information included in such national intelligence is in accordance with the policies laid down in the U. S. National Disclosure Policy (MIC 206/29), such deter- zination to be made by the Army, Navy and Air Force; and provided fuxther that any disclosure of FBI intelligence infor iation will be cleared with that Agency prior to dissemination. 4. In connection with the general subject of dissemination of intelligence to foreign governments, it is noted for the information of the National Security Council that the Central Intelligence Agency has been in the past and is currently disseminating intelligence infor- mation collected by it and finished intelligence ( other than national intelligence) produced by it to certain foreign governments on a reci- procal basis. This is being done in keeping with national-security interests and, where military information is involved, under the 'resident's policy with respect to dissemination of military infor- mation to foreign governments (MIC 206/29).

Macy Bureau of the Budget SUBJECT: Budgetary Analysis of Intelligence Programs 1. In response to your 17 November 1953 request for advice and assistance from the Intelligence Advisory Committee in the development of a more adequate budgetary analysis of U. S. intelli- gence programs and more specifically in the formulation of a categorized approach to budgetary analysis, there is attached a suggested initial listing of categories to accomplish these purposes. 2. In keeping with the understanding reached at the IAC meeting at which you were present, internal security programs are excluded from the categories as they will be excluded from the analysis. 3. Based on informal consultation, it is my understanding that you believe these categories will be suitable to assist you, at least in the initial stages, to achieve the objectives outlined by you on 17 November to the IAC. 4. As the survey proceeds, the Bureau should feel free to call upon the IAC for additional assistance, as appropriate. It would be appreciated if the Bureau's findings would be made available to the IAC. /s/ Robert Amory, Jr. for ALLEN W.

The major categories should be restricted to the classical classification of intelligence, namely: collection, production and dissemination. 2. The category "collection" should be divided as overt and covert. 3. Intelligence activities under the category "production" should be further classified as follows: a. Political, cultural and sociological b. Ground Forces c. Naval Forces d. Air Forces e. Economic f. Scientific and Technical 4. No attempt has been made to classify "production" or the subdivisions of "production" as basic, current and national intelligence. Such a division, if made, would be unrealistic, inasmuch as in some agencies the employment of personnel on these respective categories of intelligence will vary with the intensity of international relations and crises. There is no formula thus far discovered or used among the agencies which could indicate the actual allocation of total resources to those categories of intelligence. 5. The category "dissemination, " for the sake of uniformity in the survey, should include screening, reproduction, translation, distribution and libraries, although the relationship of those functions to both production and collection is recognized. 6. In connection with these activities, whether by intelligence or by operations, which serve purposes other than intelligence, the approximate intelligence cost should be broken out and listed. This is particularly applicable to certain problems in collection, but is not necessarily restricted to. collection.
