Jack: I talked to Emmett Echols who reaffirmed my own impression
that the reason for an appeal to the Director is purely and simply
to provide some basis for direct appeal to higher authority incorporating
any additional information the person being terminated feels he would
like to have brought to the Director's attention. In any other
Government agency, the employee being terminated would have appeal rights
to the Civil Service Commission and from there to the courts. Because
of the Director's special authority, there is no appeal available outside
of the Agency and a proviso was therefore written into the regulation
to give an individual some kind of an appeal, even though it is to the
same authority who decided on his termination in the first place.

MEMORANDUM. FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
THROUGH . Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT : Procedure for Handling is from
Separation Under I- Al
1. Paragraph b(4) of the regulation governing separation of
surplus personnel provides that within 10 days of being notified
an employee may appeal to the Director. The first appeals under
this regulation are starting to come through.
2. In the past the Inspector General has acted for the
Director in reviewing appeals from separations on other grounds.
I assume you will wish us to review the new surplus separations
in the same manner. Normally we shall:
a. Determine that the separation action has
conformed with Agency regulations.
b. Talk perscnnally with the employee and
determine whether his appeal seems to have
merit. If' so, investigate.
c. Transmit the appeal to you with our
recommendation, attaching a reply to the
employee for your signature. If our
recommendation sustained the appeal (which
we would not expect to happen often) we
would attach a draft memorandum from you to
the Director of Personnel postponing or
rescinding the separation.

3. The Director of Personnel concurs in this procedure.
Attached to this memorandum is the first case thus handled.
We have checked the procedures and talked to the employee. I
recommend that you sign the attached memorandum denying the
appeal.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
THROUGH : Inspector General
SUBJECT : Reconsideration of Termination Notice
1. It is respectfully requested that reconsideration be given to the
termination notice received by the undersigned on 9 January 1962.
2. The Agency - as do all. government organizations - has a need
for good records management. I am a trained, professional Records
Management Officer. My career in this field began as a Records Analyst
with WAA in 1947. I transferred to CIA in 1952 as a Records Management
Officer and have remained in this work to the present. I worked on the
Records Management Staff from 1952 to 1959 and then transferred to the
NE Division by request of the Division. Although my work has been
specialized I have kept a broad outlook by constant association with operat-
ing personnel and by observing field problems first hand during two overseas
TDY trips. During my service with CIA I have attended American University
majoring in Public Administration with a two year course in Records Manage-
ment. Additionally, I have attended seminar type courses on Records
Management sponsored by other government organizations, the CIA Writing
Workshop and the Intelligence Orientation Course.
3. I appreciate that my talents are surplus to the needs of the Deputy
for Support, but I strongly believe that I can accomplish my professional
task in some other area where Intelligence and Operations Officers are
performing this function in a non-professional and sometimes disinterested
fashion. I understand that my file has been "shopped" without success. I
submit that this is understandable at a time when each organizational entity
is holding on to their personnel and necessarily excluding "outsiders" from
consideration. I do request that you give these thoughts your careful

consideration and allow me the opportunity to prove to some other agency
element that I can perform and :perform well to the good of the Agency and
the U. S. Government as I have already demonstrated to the satisfaction of
the NE Division.
4. In view of the above, I. earnestly request that favorable consider-
ation be given this appeal and that the termination notice be cancelled.
