2. I talked to Gordon Stewart about the Project - retirement plan and re-
turned it to him for rewrite prior to presenting it to the Director. I also asked him to
insure that the provisions of the Director's memorandum---requiring that retirement
plans for proprietary projects be coordinated with the Director of Personnel---be in-
corporated in the Regulations,
3. The Director advised me that Mr. Joseph Campbell, the Comptroller General,
had telephoned him about the problem of certain contracts . I explained tha5X1 A
these were Dick Bissell's projects and that we had been o ding the General Accounting
Office away from them. I agreed to furnish him with up-to-date information on where
this matter stood and subsequently asked Ed Saunders to prepare a one-page memoran-
dum. The Director also said that he and Mr. Campbell had discussed Congressman
Kilday's interest in having us explore the possibility of expanding the GAO audit at which
time they agreed that Mr. Adolph T. Samuelson, Director of Civilian Accounts and
Audit Division of the General Accounting Office, should meet with me for a preliminary
discussion.

If, however, this effort fails we will have to face the question of w et er or not we should

he would, therefore, be eligible for retirement next Spring as previously arranged.

to whether or not there was any merit in separating the assessment function from the
Psychological Staff and combining it with our Psychiatric Division in the Medical Staff,
leaving the remainder of the A&E Staff with the Office of Training. It was his opinion
that this would not be timely. He does believe, however, that the A&E Staff and the
Psychiatric Division should work much more closely together and suggested that we
consider the possibility of placing them in contiguous space in the new building.
He also discussed with me the problem of personnel reductions. He said that
he was in somewhat of a dilemma inasmuch as General Cabell and Mr. Dulles appeared
to be of different minds about the reduction. He went on to explain that he thought a re-
duction in force would be possible in this Agency and that he was studying the matter for
Mr. Kirkpatrick. I told him I did not believe that the reduction in force would be a good
thing, but that I had to admit that we had not actually run a test to see what would happen.
