DIARY NOTES
30 November 1960
1. At the Deputies' Meeting this morning:
a. There was considerable discussion about the upcoming briefing
for President-elect Kennedy. Ting Sheldon has been designated by the
Director to coordinate this briefing. No definite date has been set yet.

c. We also had a considerable discussion about the Photographic
Intelligence Center and its budget problem. The Director asked me to get
together with Bob Amory and Bob Macy, Bureau of the Budget, and try to
reach some agreement. (I have arranged to meet with them at lunch
tomorrow.)
d. In connection with the budget, I talked to Bob Amory about ab-
sorbing some of the personnel cut and he agreed to absorb his pro rata
share.
e. Also in connection with the budget, Dick Bissell told the Director
that he would have a paper in his hands before noon which would be responsive
to the cut which the Bureau of the Budget wants to make in the 10 Division as
well as a paper on anticipated withdrawals from the Reserve. (As of ten
o'clock on 1 December no such paper had been received.)
f. We discussed the movie "Operation Abolition" and the criticism
which is being levied against it, particularly by the Washington Post. I told
the Director that we had this movie, had shown it a number of times in the
Agency and proposed to continue to use it for training purposes. I also re -
ported that there was an FBI paper which supported this movall the way,
and, furthermore, that we had first-hand knowledge that most of the leading
agitators were, in fact, Communists.
