DIARY NOTES

to see me. He is well pleased with his new assignment and will be happy to go back to

2. John Tietjen was in to see me:
25X1A9a
a. He reported that the Assessment and Evaluation Staff and the Psy-
chiatric Division had now exchanged briefings and that it was his honest opinion
that in the overt and semi-covert fields there were no conflicts or duplications
of effort. He still believes that the covert assessment area is the area in
which competition is likely to continue and in which it will be most difficult
to coordinate thoroughly. However, it is his opinion that the A&E Staff is not,
in fact, doing very much in this field at the moment and he believes that Dr.
are two personalities that are not likely to have great dif-
ficulty about small matters.
b. I talked to him about "full-duty/general" having a different meaning
for a JOT than it does for the normal employee. His explanation, I thought,
was quite logical,sAd t he knows exactly where an employee is going to be
used; for example, he might qualify a Communications Technician for "full-
duty/general" whereas he would be reluctant to qualify a JOT with the same
physical limitations. This, I think, is reasonable and proper and he has
agreed to make a presentation to Matt Baird and others if25X1 Aga
they so desire.

c. He was highly complimentary o as a result of
seeing him in action on his recent trip with General Cabell. 25X1A9a
3. - reported that Mr. Pahl, General Accounting Office, wanted to go much
deeper into our activities, particularly in the Finance Division, than we had agreed to let
him go. Mr. Pahl is about ready to go back to Mr. Samuelson and report that it is impos-
sible to conduct a meaningful audit and to recommend that they pull out the audit team al-
25X1A9a together. (On Wednesday, 6 January, Larry Houston, and I
met to discuss this matter and agreed that we would not retreat from our earlier position.
However, we all emphasized that we must go out of our way not to withhold things from him
that were in support of vouchered activities. In this connection, we agreed tentatively to
give him the Audit Manual and to let him see the Audit Report on the Fiscal Division. I
also arranged to see Mr. Pahl to talk with him about the over-all approach.)
4. I lunched with Matt Baird and filled him in on my thinking concerning an Executive
Development Program within the DD/S area and also discussed the Notice announcing the
formulation of an Agency Retirement Board. I told Matt, however, that he should not take
any firm position with regard to his people who will be affected until the Retirement Board

Heads transmitting a copy of his report on Career Service and asking that it
not be discussed with the Deputy Directors. I told him very frankly that I
thought this was an extremely bad practice, that I resented it very much and
regarded it as an act of non-cooperation with the DD/S rather than coopera-
tion. He professed to have handled the matter in this way merely to save my
time. I told him that if this were true he could have at least had the courtesy
to pick up the squawk box and discuss the matter with me or have sent me a
courtesy copy. This encounter concluded by his saying that he thought I was

e. With regard to his major programs in 1960 which will be of primary
interest to DD/S, he proposes to undertake immediately a survey of the Agency's
training requirements and our ability to meet them. This will include a good
hard look at our Language Program. He will also do a survey of the Office of
Security, probably starting in the spring. I told him that I would like to consider
with him what personnel should do this survey and that there were, fact, parts
of Security which I thought I would ask him to do personally. My principle

the Management Staff has finished their study.

to him that I did not think we were going to be able to make more than the 3%
reduction in DD/S and that, in fact, if the Director approved the new COMINT
Close Support Program and the expanded JOT Program, the reduction which we
will make by 1 July would be wiped out during 1961 and 1962.
