paper. Then attended with Mr Dlles, the meeting of the Steering Groups
Dulles had to leave after approximately a half an hour and I remained
for nearly two hours more While all:ports of sniping and nit-picking went
on with respect to DCI 'a proposal,. At the end of the meeting, it was
agreed that I should attempt to obtain clarification to some doubtful points
from DCI and have a draft if recommended action for Senior Staff to consider
placing before the Council when it meets-on Wednesday. Upon return, took a
hand at this and 'checked with Mrs Dulles, and did it once more.

Frtdar, 28 November 1952 (3 e: 8)
At morning meeting* DOI in response to questions from DD/CI gave a
brief description of the proceedings at the NSC on the 26th. Apparent.
Ly, DCI did most of the ta4ing* the others present not having reads with
the exception of Fosters t4e Joint Chiefs' memo or otherwise done their
homework. DCI characterized the Joint Chiefs' memo as and got
some degree of agreement 44 to this from Foster. The action taken ap-
proved the recommendatione Of the Senior Staff but did not include alaY
action on the Director's Urger project. The President apparently con-
cluded the discuselon with the suggestion that JOCI will see if he can work
things out with the JCS. DCI went on to comment that he thought a good
approach henceforth wo4id be throegh Fosters Who seemed to have some under*
standing of the prOblem. In response to my questions he indicated that we
ehould move right es/ with the staff work necessary to implement Para-

I went over he NSC action with respect to
the summary evaluation. 1Expressed the desirability of proceeding immediate
ly to outline best possible terms of references including in tabular form
the detailed percenta,Te of destruction estimates under various assumptions
as to weapons availible and delivered on target. When such terms of refer
ence have been refined., it will then be appropriate to consider who can

conferred with Messrs. Ley end Gleason
at the NSC office with respect summary evaluation. Agreed that the very
detailed terms of reference in the nature of questions that must be answered
should be prepared irrespective of the machinery for obtaining the answers.
further agreed that the machinery should consist of a high level Steering
Group to be Chaired by a presidential appointee and including as members,
a representative of the IAC? of the JCS, and of both /IC and the ICIS* Each
of these should be men of real authority and should be supported by top flight
deputies for actual work. It is important that the Steering Group be consti-
tuted from the outset of the program and concern itself with the entire exercise,
start MWEkeviewing and finalising the terns of reference presented to the
NSC, will have a revised draft reflecting these and yester-
day's discussions formy consideration by Saturday.

I made no specific commitment but merely sounded him out as to interest which
he expressed very diffidently, but very definitely. Gleabon also gave me a

because he initialky stated the proposed action ahould await determination
by the Intelligence community of the total Russian resources for attack,
including stockpile of bombs, etc. I assured him that this step was al-
ready complete for the years in question, and shortly will be completed
thru '57 and that, therefore, we had reached the etage where we must start
to pull the two things together. He appeared satisfied.
Thereafter, there took place a lengthy discussion of a mechanism for
coordinating behind-the-lines activities in the event of hostilities. DCI
outlined clearly his concept of the subordination and reponsibility of CIA
units under his senior Representative to the Theater Commander. It was
agreed that more general information should be exchanged between the Army
people and the DD/P as to present plans. Da expressed grave doubts as to
the feasibility of some of General McClure's expansive plans.
