1. At its meeting on 18 July 1962 the United States
Intelligence Board (USIB) approved retention of the Critical
Collection Problems Committee subject to a broadening of its
charter in DCID No. 2~2. The Chairmanship of the CCPC, which

Central Intelligence, has been vacant since Mr. Robert Amory
resigned his position with the Central Intelligence Agency.
2. I am therefore designating of the
Office of Scientific Intelligence ( , , Chairman
of the Critical Collection Problems Committee. He has had
many years o~ high-level experience in intelligence, including
an unusually extensive participation in highly sensitive
collection systems. He has worked with the CCPC since its
founding and has, in fact, chaired its most active task force.
His responsibilities within QSI are sufficiently flexible to
permit him to devote a mayor part of his time to CCPC activities.
3. My designation of or this post reflects
the great importance which a-- ac o t e work of the, CCPC in
assisting USIB to stimulate and improve collection action in
critical foreign intelligence fields. I urge all members of
the Board to give their full support to the Work of this
Committee.
