The interdiction of illicit drugs destined
for the United States remains one of our highest
priority foreign policy objectives and it is
imperative that we maintain the momentum of our
interagency efforts of the past two years. It
is my intention, therefore, to retain the essential
elements of the Cabinet Committee on International
Narcotics Control, including the Working Group,
the Coordinating Subcommittee, and a select number
of functional subcommittees.
I have asked William J. Handley, the newly
designated Executive Director of the Cabinet
Committee, to serve also as Chairman of the Working
Group. The recent reorganization of the law
enforcement agencies and other changes since the
last meeting of the Working Group have led to a
number of shifts in personnel. Would you please
let Mr. Handley have the name of the appropriate
individual who will represent your Agency at future
meetings of the Working Group.
Sincerely ,
Lt. General Vernon A. Walters, U.S.A.,
Acting Director of Central Intelligence.
