?5X1A9a 10 has a proposal to establish 20 military positions for doctors
in the Medical Office. He believes, as does Personnel, that this is the only

a letter to the Department of Defense, saying that we had reviewed this matter

are working on such a letter.

to prepare them in final form for signature. We probably should warn Mr. Dulles
that where new policies are announced involving the expenditure of unvouehered
funds it is necessary for the Director personally to sign them. In view of the
