3. Mr. Kirkpatrick asked the Assistant Directors to make
sure that their offices reported each day on matters for the Director's
log.. he stated that a negative report was desired as well as a
positive one. He stressed the fact that it was important to keep
the Director informed on any' matters in which CIA was dealing with
an outside agency, and asked that the offices also make sure that
memoranda of conversation were prepared. It was pointed out that
if the item was sufficiently covered in reporting for the Director's
Log that a memorandum of conversation would not be necessary.
