MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Conversation with Dr. Brzezinski,
17 January 1978
1. Discussed the suggestion someone made about changing the
language in the Executive Order on clandestine collection. Expressed
my strong opposition to this.. Brzezinski suggested I talk to David
Aaron on Thursday as he was running this. I told him the fall-back
position would be my wording from Saturday's suggestion a week ago
which was briefed down into the final draft.
3. Thanked him for the budget help. He indicated he is holding
out for a to increase in everything else after the NRP is held constant
at our growth figures.
4. Thanked him for the memo on political analysis in intelligence.
Brzezinski suggested a PRC meeting on political intelligence. Brzezinski
suggested this include a discussion of the cuts and their impact or lack
of impact. It also will be on counterintelligence and our vulnerability
to provocation. Discuss his memorandum, the role of the State Department
and the Defense Attaches.

7. Discussed the PDB. and enlarging distribution to Acting
Secretaries of Defense and State. Brzezinski was generally opposed
to this. We agreed we'd leave it up to those departments to raise
the issue with the President if they wanted to.
8. Discussed the CIA study on comparative arms sales. Brzezinski
wants to hold off until the end of February before releasing it. He
believes it could be released in the long run.
