1. Talked to Ed Saunders about project I pointed out
to him that the discussion which took place at the PRO meeting when this
project was considered had to do entirely with points which should have
been indicated to the Committee in the Comptroller's memorandum. Saunders
agreed and said that he would take care of this in the future. I told
him, also, that he should strive to make his memoranda to the Project
Review Committee on projects more meaningful, and that I considered them
practically useless in their present for o told him I thought we
should have had a preliminary meeting onr~ to iron out some of the
administrative technicalities. We agreed that in the future he would 25X1A2d1
notify this office not later than Saturday of each week whether any
projects to be considered on the following Wednesday should have a pre-
liminary administrative review, and if so, we would schedule such review
on the Monday preceding the PRC meeting on Wednesday.
3. I told Saunders that I had not heard from , who
was indebted to the Agency in the amount of three or four hundred dollars
and that he should pursue a normal course in effecting collection.
5. Discussed the revision of
and told him I hoped this could be e edited and also that it seemed to
me the procedures for cases should conform, insofar as
possible, to the E.0. 10450 cases.
6. I agreed to give the Management Staff Re ulations Control)

S. Agreed wit that it was not necessary for the
Management Staff to have a duty officer on Saturdays for the sake of
coverage alone. His overtime on Saturdays should be governed by his
workload, however.

10. I asked Sheff Edwards to do a brief study for me and come up
with a positive recommendation as to whether we should continue our
present practice of having people take a polygraph immediately after
they take their oath of office or whether we should delay the oath until
the polygraph has been completed.
11. Sheff Edwards reports that he has a backlog of investigations
which he is trying hard to work off, but due to a variety of circumstances
lie may have to have an increase in his personnel ceiling. I told him I
hoped we could complete the Management survey in his office before this
request came up, and that in any case I would expect to get support from
the Medical survey if such an increase is actually necessary.

13. Saunders inquired as to the status of I told 25X1A9a
him that it was my understanding that she was separated on Tuesday and
that I had assumed that his people would have taken the necessary action
to effect collection of her indebtedness as she was processed out.
14. said he had talked to Mr. "Z" and that Mr. "Z" said
that Larry Houston had made a commitment on behalf of the Agency to purchase
his car in a proposal which I declined to approve. John requested
permission to cable Houston, to ascertain whether he had made such a commit-
ment, and I approved.
15. requested permission to delay forwarding requests
for entry in the Career Service until Mr. Houston returns. I approved.

about his position, in view of the fact
that is coming on duty to replace him as Chief of Planning.
I told that my conversations with Garrison had indicated there was
no dissatisfaction with his performance but that we all felt that General
would give us some stature as well as ability in that position,
which would help us accomplish many things that we are trying to do and
are having some difficulty in doing with persons of less stature.
