Dear Mr. Kinney:
On 18 January 1983, Mr. L. E. Lowry, Jr., OSD Records Administrator,
forwarded to this Agency 36 documents with a request that we review
their classification status. We have reviewed the documents, identified
by number as attachments in your list, and our determinations are as
follows:
a. Documents 5 and 35 may be downgraded to CONFIDENTIAL.
b. Documents 11, 20, 24, 26, 28, and 34 must be retained
at SECRET.
c. Documents 27 and 36 must be retained at CONFIDENTIAL.
d. The CIA has no objection to the declassification of the
remaining twenty-six documents.
Copies of the enclosures listed on the attached documents did
not accompany the documents and, therefore, the enclosures will
require separate classification review to determine their classi-
fication status.
State Dept. review completed
DPMO review(s) completed.
USAF review(s) completed.

SUBJECT, Hoover Co nieision Sub--C?.aaaittee on Intelligence Chaired
by General k Clarrk, USA $Ret )
1. It is understood that General Clark will pay you a courtesy call
an 4 Nove*or 1954 at 2:310 Through his chief of staff, General Christianson,
it is understood that Genea'sl Clark vould be pleased it W. Andersen were
also present at this amens bsvaeeso of his personal interest in intelli-
genoe ratters.
2. As You are Aware, the Hoover Comission was established by
Congress and is concerned principally With organization mattors and eoonozq
in Government. The Clark Sub.Comdttes on intelligence is no exneption.
3. These facts, however, oareats certain ooelioations insofar as
intelligence is oonoerned: While the specific organisatisnaa. arrangeseente
within the Executive Branch of erernsertt fir the oondust of intelligence
activities are not partiou aesly classified, virtually all of the details
and most of the justifications for these organisational arrangements
involve knowledge of data, the release of which through congressional
channels would prove damaging to the best interests of the United States.
4. It is understood that the Clark Sett-Cow ittee at this time antici-
pates submitting two r.portsss the first an unclassified report on
organization and cost which will be sotmitted to Congress, and the second
a Classified report for possible aul*i"Ien to the President.
5. Insofar as the Department of Defense is concerned, there are
three major organisational problems in the intciligence fields
1. The relationship, possible duplication, overlap, and lack
of coordination among the Service intelligence agencies and the
intelligence staff of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
,k. The lactic of coordination, the duplication, and the conflicting
areas of interest as between the several Service departeental
intelligence agencies end the Oentrsl Xstelligssr os ?gwAy.
g. The continuing U* of prevtaten for an d is voice in
intslliganee policy matters an the part Of the to office of
the Csmrestary of Defense.
