g. On 26 August 1965, CODIB met again, this being for their sixty-
fourth meeting. '
h. At this meeting, as reflected in the Minutes issued under date
of 30 August, Mr. Borel expressed the opinion that much.of the Report
could be bought now and indicated that he proposed to use the CIA paper
entitled "CIA Reaction to CODIB Task Team IV," dated 16August, 1965,
.and distributed at the end of the session, as an initial draft directive
for USIB consideration. as _,Board action on the Team Report. At the
same meeting, recommended the inclusion in the CODIB
report to USIB designating DIA as the monitor or executive agent. For
action, DIA was requested to review the CIA paper and see if "there
are too many reservations to preclude going to,USIB at this time. "
i. I asked to distribute to you CODIB's document dated
31 August with its three attachments.
j. A day or so later, as Chairman of your Task Team, I coordinated
with CODIB on its Draft Quarterly Report insofar as mention of our Team
25X1A
was concerned.
3. I think that this brings you fairly up to date.' At the moment,
is staffing a DIA response to CIA's views on our Task Team's
Report. of
4. I believe that is is appropriate at this time to ascertain the views of
our Task Team on CIA's reactions to the Task Team's `Interim Report,
and I would suggest that we view this in three steps:'.''. If
a. The reservations expressed by CIA, which strike me as being
very reasonable indeed.
b. The conditions stipulated by the CIA, as a condition for acceptance
of the Task Team's recommendations; and
c. The recommendations made by the CIA for /fallow-up actions
by the Task Team.
5. My ovn personal inclinations lie in the field of thanking CODIB/CIA
for the response received from CIA; suggesting that CODIB proceed as
planned with its proposed draft directive 'for issuance by USIB, including
the reservations expressed by CIA; to recommend that CODIBarrange
for the so-called "Recommended Follow-Up Actions" be delegated to
the operational elements concerned in CIA and DIA for resolution;
that agreement be reached, similarly, between CIA and DIA on the
matter of the proposed Executive Agency to permit of its operation

with the maximum of efficiency, at the lowest possible cost, iri the
best interests of the Intelligence Community, without detriment to the
operational relationships between DIA and the Unified and Specified
Commands while, at the same time, meeting the requirements of the
Intelligence Community; and, finally, that Task Team IV and its members
be permitted to retire from the field, with full honors, to enable us to
devote more time- and effort to our regularly assign.ec . tasks, but with
the Task Team -IV being retained on paper, for a 'reasonable time, to
enable reactivation should that become necessary.,
