Approved For Release 2007/03/02 r CI ,R 78-03568AO00100290007-2 STM DARD FORM NO. 04 Office Memorandum ? UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT TO : Director of Central Intelligence VIA: Management Officer FROM : Assistant Director, OSO DATE: LIE? 2 5 1950 SUBJECT: Request for Authority to Establish a Basic Communications Training Course in the Communications Division OSO Reference: (a) Memo fr Chief Commo to ADSO dated 18 Sept 1950, subject "Establishment of Basic Communications Training Course" (b) Memo fr Chief Comma, to ADSO dated 18 Sept 1950, subject "Establishment of a Basic Communications Training Course on a Contract Basis" 1. Authority is requested for the immediate establishment of the Basic Training Course and the program incident thereto as outlined in reference (a). Coincident with the establishment of the Basic Communi- cations Training Course, the possibility of obtaining such services on a contract basis with private schools, as outlined in reference (b), will be explored with the thought in mind that in the event of general mobili- zation additional training facilities may be required. 2. It is believed that the cost of contracting for the type of basic training desired will about equal that estimated to set up and operate a Basic Training Program within the Communications Division. In addition to the cost factor, however, it is believed that such a Training Program within the Communications Division will be much more businesslike, dependable and secure.
