MEMORANDUM FOR: Assistant Director /Research and Reports
Assistant Director /Scientific Intelligence
SUBJECT : Request For Data an Soviet Procurement
and Use of Titanium
1. At the NSC meeting on 15 November, the Director was
asked by Mr. Flemming of the Office of Defense Mobilization
about the production, import and uses of titanium in the Soviet
bloc, and primarily in the Soviet Union. The question arose
as a result of an item in the Director's intelligence briefing of
the Council that the Hungarian government was negotiating to
build an arms factory in India in exchange for titanium ore and
other products.
2. The Director has asked that I prepare a reply to Mr.
Flemming for his signature. Consequently. I would appreciate
receiving,at your earliest convenience,a concise coordinated report
summarizing available information on this subject.
