2. Beyond that, I think we often give guidance in platitudinous
terms. It is nice to be cost effective or fiscally prudent or balanced,
but for heaven's sake we all expect to be in those categories at all
1. I have finally looked at the draft FY 1982 NFIP guidance. I'm
afraid I find it boring reading! Clearly I don't relate to all of the
detailed specifications that have to be into it about Form 4E and 4F,
etc., though I really wonder if they shouldn't be in an appendix, even
an appendix that applies to all recipients. In short, it is very difficult

we should do that because it will force careful consideration of
how our national systems can better support tactical commanders.
That is, by looking at the overlaps between IRA systems and
national systems we should. try to determine if there are ways
in which the national systems can do more for the tactical
commanders.
c. We must look for imaginative ways to enhance collection
and production a ainst the Third World and a set of priorities
for doing that.
4. These are not my goals for the intelligence community but those
which I think are most related to the budget, ThPrP nrnhahly arc, thers,
but I haven't given enough thought about it.1
5. Overall, I leave it to you to pull together. I can't take much
more time on it. It may be that the document just can't
guidance and comptroller-type guidance at the same time
