DIARY NOTES
DD/ 3 October 1962
1. I telephoned General Quinn, Deputy .Director of the Defense Intelligence
Agency, and invited him to visit our Static Display at his convenience. He
will let me know when he can see the display.
2 . and I met briefly with Mr . Kirkpatrick
to discuss space. He agreed that we have done about all we can do pending some
policy guidance from General Carter or the Director . Kirk will arrange a time
for us to talk to General Carter -probably Friday, 5 October.
3. The Director has requested Mr. Kirkpatrick to obtain a sketch of our
property and to identify on it property owners surrounding us. The Office of
Logistics is in the process of ascertaining the property owners, which will take
a day or two. I gather that the Director's idea was to consider the possibility
of buying same of this property in order to prevent the building of apartments
on it. (Since we have been unwilling to take a position against apartments until
now, I would be very surprised if we could really go forward with. buying adjacent
properties in order to prevent them.)
4. I talked to John Tietjen about his budget, which he felt was extremely
tight. He thought that he would have to have the 2 per cent now being withheld
and possibly more in order to get by for this fiscal year. I asked hirn to take
up this matter with Gates Lloyd and right away with a view toward
making a presentation to the Financial Policy and Budget Committee. John and
I also discussed a project which he would like very much to undertake and which
would be quite expensive . I asked him to bring this forward at a fairly early
date with the hope that we might identify year-end savings which could be used
to get this project under way.
5. John Bross telephoned to request that I meet with at 1630
hours on Tuesday, 9 October, to discuss our supergrades. (I have arranged
for Emmett Echols and~to be here, and John Bross is inviting the
other Deputies to come or to sen a senior representative.)
6. I agreed to attend a briefing on OSA activities, which
is arranging for 1500 hours on 23 October. All of our DD/S Office Heads and
Staff Chiefs who have proper clearances will be invited.

7. Emmett Echols advised me that they have been in touch with an
applicant in whom Congressman Johnson had an interest,
and that was no onger interested in employment with the Agency.
25X1A9a $. ~ telephoned Emmett Echols to say that Congressman Jerry
Ford who was on our Appropriations Subcommittee, was interested i.n the case
25X1A9a of ~ who was rejected for the JOT" Program by our Medical
Staff. Emmett has checked into this case, and there is no uestion at all about
the soundness of the decision. (I asked him to have xplain this 25X1A
to Jerry Ford; I feel sure that we will hear nothing further out t.)
9. Shef Edwards telephoned to say that he had received the paper from
the Credit Union recommending that we hire an outside auditor to audit Credit
Union activities. Shef said that he had advised who brought the 25X1A9a
paper to him, that he had serious reservations about this and had suggested
25X1A9a that ,who had signed the paper, bring it to me before proceeding
further.
10. John Tietjen reported that ~ has been hospitalized again for
psychiatric reasons. It may be serious this time and could mean that he will
not return to duty with the Agency.
11. John Tietjen also talked to me about some of his personal ambitions.
As I have realized for many years, he is restless in his present job. I have
no worries that he is likely to leave it, but at the same time he would like to
do something more in the Agency in the field of medicine, the scientific area,
or elsewhere than he is doing at present. I assured him that I would keep my
ears and eyes open for any such possibilities .
12. I talked with Emmett Echols about the possibility of having 25X1A9a
_ reglace when Harry's tour expires. Emmett thought that
this would be highly acceptable, and I agreed to mention it to Iaick while he is
here this week.
