Approved For Release 2007/10/19: CIA-RDP81 B00878R000300030003-7 7 V , DPS-4875 copy _or 4 11 October 1958 MEMORAND[JI FOR : Security Officer, DPS/DCI THROU( : Director of Administration, DPS/DCI SUBJECT : Proposed Declassification of AS-8 Communication System REFERENCE : DPS-4599, 6 October 1958 On the basis of your views as expressed in the reference, I am ready to concur in the declassification of communications system AS-8. In so doing, however, I believe we should call the attention of the Director of the Office of Communications and the Director of the Office of Security to the problem you raise in your memorandum, namely, that association of this equipment with the Agency in embassies abroad could have quite embarrassing conse- quences.. Would you, therefore, draft for my signature a memorandum addressed jointly to the two above-mentioned individuals with a copy to the DD/S expressing our concurrence in the declassification and calling their attention to the problem of association. /s/ RICHARD M. BISSELL, JR. Special Assistant to the Director for Planning and Development Attachments 1. DPS-4599 cys 1 & 2 2.
