REFERENCE: CIA. Control No. 4290
'. is is to acknowledge receipt today of two copies of
your report on The East German Financial System. So far
have gad a chance to give it only a rapid perusal but
c impression is that it is an informative and well-organized
report. We are grateful for the Agency's assistance in
,ulling this material together, as it was generally agreed
ynen the descriptive studies were launched that an East
Garman report could not be done outside, from wholly
unclassified sources.
As soon as the Columbia University reports are com-
eted for the Polish, Hungarian, and Czech financial
systems, we would appreciate an opportunity to discuss
this East European reset:rch with your specialists, to
review accomplishments to date and to consider what more
needs to be done as background for verification procedures.
We anticipate completion of this phase of the Columbia
project by the end of 1966.
