2. Peters said that the purpose of the meeting was to
review the agenda for the Working Group meeting scheduled for
26 September. A copy of that agenda, which had been sent out
earlier, is attached.

Live Director of the CCINC, Harold Horan, NSC, Bartels of D ,
Cooke of DoD; Williams of AID; Long of Agriculture; Towery of
USIA;; Dupont of AODAP; Wiggins of USUN; Morgan

Working Group back into the business on decision making; he

said Handley plans to use the Working Group and not tie its
meetings solely to CCINC meetings. The second reason is that
there will be a CCINC meeting in October. The tentative date,
on the President's calendar, is 23 October.... Peters said
two new committees, at the cabinet level, have been established,
one on treatment, chaired by Weinberger, and one on enforcement,
chaired by Richardson. The October meeting is planned to be a
joint meeting--three committees at a meeting chaired by the
President. Plans for the meeting are for about one hour.
Peters said the "international" presentation will foe" on
where the interest has been and where we are going. He said
one other issue will be added. This is the question of the
world opium "shortage." This subject will not be discussed
at the Working Group meeting but will be discussed at the
cabinet-level meeting: the subject has been under study by a
group chaired by 0MB, and the comments on this may be given by
Minnick or Shepard.
4. With regard to the attached a
nda
a. Item is Handley will discuss his desire/intent
to use the Working Group more, etc. Peters said they want to
trim down the number of subcommittees reporting directly to
the Working Group and the Coordinating Subcommittee. The Con-
gressional and Diplomatic Subcommittee and the PR Subcommittee
will be dropped and acknowledgment will be made of the Training
Subcommittee ( and of the Treatment Subcommittee). There will
remain five specialized subcommittees (Intelligence, Law En-
forcement; Training; Treatment, R&D). The Coordinating Sub-
committee will continue.... Four regional conferences are
planned for the current fiscal year (EUR, ARA, NEA, SEA).
Whether the EUR or the ARA one will be held first has not yet
been decided but the first may be in November. Peters said
that it in intended that these be working-level conferences....
There may be some remarks about developments on Capitol Hill
(e.g., the lartke Amendment for the Foreign Assistance Act
and the Wolff rider on a trade bill).... "FY 75 Funding" will
not be discussed at the 26. September meeting.
b. Item 2 on the agenda will be what is item 4 on
the attached. Peters said that he would like to add a list
of priority countries developed by Handley, Bartels, Cusack,
and Peters. This is a listing of nineteen countries at tour
priority levels;

Peters said they might present the listing with the countries
grouped by region rather than under relative priorities. He
asked for reactions to the listing. Discussion at the table
indicated some uncertainties about relative importance. There
was a suggestion that the listing not be made firm now, and
that a statement now be limited to one saying a listing is
being established.... Peters indicated that Handley will dis-
cuss most or all of the countries listed under item 4 of the
attached and said a brief paper will be prepared for the CCINC..,
In response to a question Peters indicated that key congressmen
were being or would be briefed on the proposal for supplying
helicopters to Burma.
c. Item 2 of the attached agenda becomes item 3 of
the revised agenda. Peters said that "national strategy" should
be deleted from the agenda. He said that he would like to sug-
gest a discussion of, and endorsement of, what the drug prior-
ities are. He would like to see an agreement by BSA and SAODAP
on relative priorities on heroin, cocaine, liquid hash, and
other drugs.... There was some discussion of the priorities
set by the CCINC, and specifically some discussion about whether
interdiction at US borders should be on the CCINC list tae.,
is this a domestic enforcement objective instead of a CCINC
objective?). There appeared to be no opposition to the present
priorities on intelligence and enforcement on the CCINC list.
5. Peters noted that he had had a chance to see John
Warner's trip report and that it had a high statistic on heroin,
addiction among US troops in Germany. There appeared to be
some feeling around the table that the figure was high. John
Whittington will look into some of the realities.
6. There was considerable discussion about the question
of various kinds of "pills" and what might or ought to be
done about these. There was an apparent consensus that CCXNC

priorities and domestic priorities in the drug program need
not necessarily be the same (e.g., CCINC could continue its
top priority on heroin and opiates even if domestic priorities
turned increasing attention to barbiturates and/or other drugs.
