DIARY NOTES
1. 1 met with Mr. Kirkpatrick and John Clarke to discuss the substance
of the Director of Logistics' memorandum of 28 September 1964 in which he
proposed that we lease the Key Building in Rosslyn, move into it those com-
ponents now in the Matomic Building plus the Office of Finance, and make the
2430 E Street complex available to the Technical Services Division. Kirk ap-
proved of this plan including the financing as outlined in the memorandum.
After the meeting Mr. Innamorati, Regional Director of the Public Buildings
Service, Region 3, called to say that he was most anxious for us to take this
space. I told Mr. Innamorati that there were several things I wanted before
I would sign any agreement. First, I wanted to be sure that there was no
possibility of getting all our non-Headquarters components located in the
He assured me that this would not be possible. Confiden-
tially, he thought that there would be some Government space there but said
that at this time they could not justify the leasing of this block of space, con-
demnation and demolition of the temporary buildings, etc. I then said that I
wanted in some way to be sure that our people would be provided parking in
the Key Building and that I wanted at least a gentlemen's understanding that
we would eventually get the remainder of the consolidation space we need in
that general area. He said that they would do everything they possibly could
to get the parking space for us and to lease the remainder of our space in
that area. They cannot, however, make an iron-clad commitment. I talked
to Alan Warfield about this and asked him and to get together
with Mr. Innamorati today. I can then meet with them tomorrow to finalize 25X1A9a
the deal. (When all the details are ironed out, I want to write a memorandum
to Bob Daly, Commissioner of the Public Buildings Service, outlining our
understanding of the conditions under which we are accepting this space.)
2. Bob Fuchs telephoned to discuss the following:
a. Bob wanted to pursue the survey which his office made about a
year ago of the budget and fiscal positions in the DD/P. Bob believes
that the remainder of these positions should be upgraded to grade GS-14.
He thought that he has convinced f this but wanted to make
sure that I had no objection. I sai hate should recognize that this
is not a good climate in which to upgrade these people but that as a mat-
ter of principle the positions should be established at whatever grade is
appropriate. Otherwise, I had no objection. I did remind him, however,

that I would object to any attempt to remove these positions from the
supervision of the Chief of Support.
b. Bob also wanted to know whether it would do any good to requi-
sition some Class A furniture, including a sofa, for one or two of his
people. I told him to send the requisition to me; it might be possible
to fill it from stock.
3. were in to brief me on the Investigations
Division of the Office of Security. A few years ago an average investigation
took 104 days; today it takes about 60 days. However, with the recently
stepped-up tempo in DD/S&T activities this figure has gone up to about 71
days and may still go higher. This is still not bad and not as critical as it
might have been a few years ago when we were bringing in larger numbers
of people and before we cleared our clerical and secretarial personnel prior
to bringing them to Washington.
25X1 A9a 4. 1 chaired a meeting attended by and other DD/P
representatives, and other DD/S&T re resentatives, Emmett
Echols, Bob Fuchs, to discuss the protection
of Clandestine Services rosters which are printed out by the Office of Com-
puter Services. I think that we reached agreement in principle, and every-
one there was asked to let ow within twenty-four hours whether
on further reflection he ha any o jections to the principles agreed to, which
were fairly well spelled out in a memorandum which
tabled at the meeting. It was a constructive meeting, and I think that DD/P
has a real point in wanting greater protection of these listings of their per-
sonnel.
5. Emmett Echols was in to discuss the following:
a. Emmett reviewed with me the activities of the Personnel
Evaluation Board. The Board seems to be active; however, I think that
we should watch this Board very closely to make sure that it is com-
plying with General Carter's directive of 30 May 1964. I inquired about
two cases which were not on his list; namely,
(Emmett will let me know the progress of these cases.)
b. Emmett also reviewed with me the report from his placement
people, which he thought was quite encouraging. It seemed to me that
the people they had placed were for the most part junior, clerical, or
technical people who could get a job without any assistance. I was not
overly impressed with any progress they have made in the placement of

senior people. I told Emmett that another Action Memorandum had
just been received on this subject and that he should keep very active
and accurate records for defensive purposes if for no other reason.
Actually, I can't be very optimistic about the success of an outplace-
ment program. It is very difficult to persuade other people in Govern-
ment or industry to hire people that you find are not good enough for
your own use.
6. 1 asked of the Office of Logistics to explore the 25X1A9a
possibility of flying the Director downtown from the Headquarters building
by helicopter should he have to get there quickly and the George Washing-
ton Parkway and other in-bound roads are congested. I asked him to find
out what kind of arrangements could be made and how long it would take to
get the chopper to the Headquarters building but not to formalize any ar-
rangements without discussing it with me further.
