of responsibilities for subsections of Section
45, as set forth in memorandum dated 6 January 25X1 A9A
1955 to me from Executives OSI.
The attachment to this ssemorardum sets forth
the proposed subsection allocation of responsi-
bilities as agreed to by f OSI 25X1 A9A
and Dr. Seltser of SGO as a basis for reaching
final agreement on this matter.
1. I discussed certain objectives respecting these allocations
as follows (reference is to paragraphing in the attachment to memo-
randum):
Paragraph 33. la -- Section 23 should suffice as Air Force
contribution.
Paragraph B. lb Section 24 should suffice for Engineers'
contribution.
Paragraph B, 2 -- Chapter IV should suffice in general ---
no formalized agreement needed in this instance.
Paragraph B. 3 -- Public Health would appear to be better
suited than Agriculture to supply this information. 0BI will explore
both agencies.
Paragraph 33, 4 - Section 61 should suffice for requirements
from Agriculture. In azy event, since this type of data is supplied
by Agriculture under agreement with CIA for Section 61 no formal
agreement is needeed*
Paragraph B. 5 -- Section 24 should supply all needed infor-
ragraph C. la- Should be done by SGO rather than 05I,
will have this re-examined with SGO for possible change
or oca on,
Paragraph C. 2 --- Veterinary Branch of SGO appears more
suitable than Agriculture to do this Section. 11 investi-
gate matter.

2, The following planned agreement was reached:
ge
will *xplore all questions raised in proceeding paragra s ania
in touch with as as soon as matters have been clarified. At this
subsequent meeting he will bring along to discuss
the definitive requirements such as production, schedules substan-
tive aspects, etc. Concurrently will brief on what
has taken place. The latter will discuss with Bureau o e Budget
their views respecting this allocation and the additional funds
required. Also, take up with Amory the matters dis-
cussed this Eg get agency policy clearance for going ahead
along present lines.
3, Once all matters in proceeding paragraphs have been coupled,
I will propose allocations of Section 45 to the NIS Committee. Upon
approval, I will then prepare a statement for the DCI, together with
a draft of replies to the last memorandum from G-2, setting forth the
allocations as agreed to and proposing a date,, possibly the end of
fiscal year 1955, as the time for new allocations to be implemented.
4. Our general discussion this morning lead to the belief that
this matter did not need to be brought before the Pro seat Review
Board since OBI already has the requisite funds in their
current appropriations,, and the slotting of three ess onals and
one clerical as augmentation to OSI Medical Intelligence Staff. This
can be arranged through shifting of slots within the DD/I area.
