approval; Sponsor - Mr. Lehman

This estimate was placed on the regular estimates
schedule in response to an informal request from the Bureau of Near

level and that he expects no difficulty at USIB.

discussion of the potential for upheaval and disintegration on Taiwan.
State is preparing a footnote to one of the conclusions that will spell
out the above differences.
At the USIB meeting of 13 January 1972 Admiral
Gayler requested that the Board consider estimative judgments regarding
the future viability of US SIGINT installations in certain countries of the
world as related to the political situation in those countries. It was
agreed that in lieu of making this type of judgment in a national estimate,
the subject would be treated in a separate BNE memorandum to USIB 25X1
fnr nrHnc of the Game time as the Board considered the relevant estimate.
