consumption
of military end-items for each of nine countries and consolidated tables
for the ` European Satellites and for the Bloc as a whole o In the lam

it may be'desirable to list the estimates for each end-item count

Ate. documentation necessary for the tables will follow in a separate
part of Section 1 of the appendix (see attached format) * In ..Form 1 the
stub (columns a and b) calls for the nomenclature and units of measure of
military end-itema0 Inventory of military end-items as of 1 July 1952
(columns c, d, and e) is broken down into inventory in hands of troops,
inventory in storage, and the am of these figurese Maxinnun production
capacity (column f) refers to he annual capacity rate as of 1 July 19524
Indigenous production (column g) refers to the 1 July 1952 to 1 July 1953
time spat, The last three columns (columns h, i, and k) refer to the uses
to which ar r given military end 4tem is put in the given country regardless
of -hair this country obtained the.. and-item. "To maintain inventory"' (column h)
means that amount of military end-items consumed to offset. cold war depletion
(attrition) of 1 July 1952 inventory,, from whatever caused If the 1 July
1.952 inventory is being increased, then the difference : between total- supply
(regardless of origin) and the'amount needed to. maintain inventory is in
W
column plus the "to increase inventory" column will equal thV1.95 inventory4
Foran individual country the difference between production and
total consumption will represent net exports if positive and net imports
if negative0 For the Bloc as a whole total production and total consumption
.will be equal,, . since imports for one, country will be exports for another0
That is, positive differences will just cancel negative differences?. It
is also possible, though not -likelyv, that some inventories are not being
fully maintainedo In such cases, the entry in the "to maintain inventory"
column should represent the amount uirl,. to maintain inventory, while

the entry in the "to increase. inventory" column (preceded by a mue

devoted to maintaining inventory, All such cases should be properly
footnoted. T he algebraic sum of the "to maintain inventory" and the
"to increase invent'ory' columneindicates the total amount of the military
end-items being consumed by the military sector 1 July 1952 to 1 July 1953,,
20 Form 2 ashes for the conversion of each military end-item into
the economic inputs named in WGC-Dal (EIC). There will be four Form 2
tables for each military end-item-covered in Form 1, one each for the USSR,
China, the European Satellites, and the. Bloc as a wholen In Form 2 the
stub (column a and b) indicates the economic resources used in making any
particular endaftem,, such as tanks, torpedoesp and so forth. In one column
(cQ:LU n c) is the quantity- of given resource used per unit of the itary'
end-item, The consumption columns (columns d, e, and f) are derivative;
"to maintain inventory"(column d) is obtained by multiplying the columh a
ratio of Form 2 by the "to maintain inventory"(column h, Form 1) entry for
the particular endc:Ltem. Likewise, the "to increase- inventory" -column is
obtained by multiplying the same ratio. by the "to increase inventory"
(column i) entry in Form 1, The total can be obtained in the same fashion
or by adding the two p receding colunnso There will be a Form 2 table
for every military end-item which is covered in the Form 1 tables,, for the
USSR, China, the, European Satellites, and the S4oc as a wholes So.0 for
any given military endmitemA.the tables will resign to the country consuming
the end-item the consumption of the economic resources employed in producing
the end-item, regardless of where it was produced.

production of .all military end-items covered in Form 1, There will be
four - of these aggregate tables, me each for the USSR, China, the European
Satellites, and the Bloc as a whole; the data to be aggregated will be in
the Form 2 tables* These tables indicate the quantities of economic
resources used to maintain and increase the inventories of all military
end-items covered in Form 1o The Form 3 tables are all derivative.
The economic resources in the stub ( .umns a. and b) of 'Form 3 tables are
the same as those, in the Form 2 tableso Entt1 a in each of the other
columns (columns ,c, d, and e) are obtained. summing the entries in each of
the corresponding columns for all military e d items in Form, 2 tables, for
the USSR,, China, the European Satellites, amll for the Bloc as a wholes
'These tables' *will assign to each country con ,liming military end-items the
total consumption of the:' economic resources u4=ed to produce these military
end-items, wherever they were produceda
C ENTRIES
In The tables should show only the best estates. Those cells for
which estimates are made will contain a figvre6 In cases in which a range
estimate has been made, a single figure should two. given in the table; and
a range,--figure, with explanation, given in tJ:e appropriate place in the
documentation (see below). If the ecU ca].lu fcol P'none, 92 the cipher 'N?"
should be entered,. In case the amount is very &tall, negligible,, or
Insignificant, the number sign # should be sheiwri., This notation may be
used without explanation to stand for estimat z which are less than 0.5%
of the total amount of the quantity being a sti fated; in other cases an
explanatory remark should be made in the doctaw1ntationo Where no estimate
is possible, no entry should be made,

2a To indicate, in the fable itself, ` that there is documentation
for a particular entry, an asterisk should be placed after the entry in
the' appropriate cello, This practice can be followed in all tables and
will, eliminate the need for letter or number footnotes0 No notes will
appear on the tables0
00 DOCUMENTATION
l0 Documentation will, be of three different types0 First, general
notes on a group of tables of any given form; second,, general notes for
each table; and third, line by line,, column by column notes for the
contents of each table, AU documentation will be in a separate part of
each section (see attached format),
20 Immediately following the group of tables of any given form, a
statement on the method?legy used to arrive at the estimates is desiired,,
accompanied by an indication of,some of the major limitations which should
be kept in mind by the non mi.li tary reader when to Ain., the to hl
3o All other notes will be presented table
by tabl.e0 At the beginning of the documentation for each table,, any general
notes dealing with the interpretation of 'the specific table should be entered0

should follow a uniformpattern0 For instance, for a Form I table, the
following would apply

Ea M HANICS
1, Uniform practices should be used in' writing the documentation
mart. of each section and in fulling out the tables,
2a Title pages and documentation will be typed on the same vise'
paper (8* z 140) as the standard forms and -the margins will be 3/411
a b o v e the first line and l' below the last line, with lift -to the left
(for binding) and at least to the right,
30 One original should be prepared on electric typewriters, for
reproduction by photoooffset, Another original should be preparedg, with
as many carbons as is 'practicable, for EIS working use- Typieta should be
instructed to use new-black typewriter ribbons throughout0 Both cc ies of
the entire M* Ilitary report will be carefully proofread p and edited by 0-2
prior to submission to SIC for publication. Until this stage is reacted
Pagination should be temporary (in blue penoil)0
4.. A uniform list .o standard abbreviations should be used for varsous
measures that are frequent use, in tables and text. For exale, the
abbreviation "nts" meaning metric tons* should be standard in both text
and tables, When aggregating to avoid significant figures in the tables,
"COD" and (X ),,OUP" will indicate thousands and millions.
5. The classification of the blank forms is SECRET p This classification
should be retained on each page of the tables unless there is a specific
TOP. SECRET' datum on that page of the table, In the documentation also,
SECRET classification should prevail, unless the particular page has TOP
SECRET information on ito
