1. Chief, FE Division telephoned to advise me that he had

and I asked him to furnish me this information inasmuch as would e an im-
portant factor in making a selection.
11. Asked to examine the possibility of replacing
25X1A9a Office of Training, with a good, general administrator, grade GS-13 or GS-
25X1A9a 12. and I met with Lyman Kirkpatrick and to discuss
the Inspector General/Management Staff relationship. Kirk was extremely frank
and forthright in his criticisms; briefly, they can be summarized as follows:
a. The Management Staff has not met deadlines in completing
surveys of the Security Office and the Office of the Comp-
troller in a way that would contribute anything to the I.
G.'s reports.
b. Some of the Management people are taking on an "I.G. at-
titude" and, perhaps, looking into things or asking for
documents which are really of no concern to thee.
C* The Management Staff and the Inspector General's staff are
both suffering because the Management Staff in the DD/P
area is attempting to funnel its reports through the Of-
fice of the Inspector General
After considerable discussion of all of these points it was finally
agreed that:
a. The Inspector General should and would depend upon the Man-
agement Staff to make manpower surveys and do other things
which properly fall within the charter of that Staff*
stem of coordination between the I.G.'s Staff
and the Management Staff would continue until
the manpower surveys of the area divisions were finished,
inasmuch as the worst was now over; i.e., surveys of the FE
and EE Divisions. When these are completed the Management
Staff and the Office of the Inspector General will discon-
tinue the close working relationship which they have now had
and will stand on their own two feet. Further, in order to
avoid "contamination" there will be no further interchange
of personnel.
There was a general discussion as to where Mr oint of con-
tact in the DD/P area would be. Messrs. Kirkpatrick, are, at

the moment, all strongly opposed to having it be the COA/DDP, which office they
apparently regard as a bottleneck for any reports that may be at all critical
of "administration." I will have to discuss the matter further with.
and others in order to resolve it.
