-' ORA DU': 'OR: THE: DIRECTOR
SiBJEOT: "Coordination of intelligence"
1. With reference to the recurring statements throughout the
Dulles Report that the ILC Agencies should more actively participate
in CIA's production of intelligence estimates, we think that complaints
by 3tate are justified that it is not being consulted in the production
of Intelligence Iernoranda, when the subject is obviously within the
field of State's dominant interest. Furthermore, the Air Force received
no prior notification on two recent papers produced in ORE - "Rein-
forcing the Israeli Air Force", and "Uncontrolled International Air
Traffic". Obviously these were both within the field of dominant in-
terest of the Air Force.
2. NSCID "do. 3 paragraph lc(5) States that CIA and the Agencies
shall for purposes of coordination, exchange information on projects
and plans for the production of staff intelligence, and paragraph le(a)
states that the DCI shall request and receive such special estimates,
etc., etc., prepared by the individual departments in their fields of
dominant interest, etc., etc.
3. In October we discussed this with Messrs. Babbitt and
when State first brought up the subject of not participating, an of
not being consulted orally when the subject of the I&: was obviously
within their field of dominant interest. (See October memoranda).
