INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
FOREIGN LANGUAGE REFERENCE MATERIALS
1. It has been proposed that it might be of material assistance
to the IAC agencies and perhaps others if an inventory were made of
available Foreign Language Reference Materials.
2. The objective of this inventory is twofold: (a) to determine
by survey existing lexicographical resources in various languages and
functional fields within each language; (b) to determine priorities on
the basis of existing needs for the conduct of the survey.
3. Three appendices are attached hereto for the use of the .IAC
agencies and others in assigning priorities to languages, functional
fields within each language, and the categories of lexicographical ma-
terials required for operational purposes.
a. Appendix A contains a list of languages organized under
two groups: languages of the European-Soviet complex and Near East-
Asian languages.
b. Appendix B contains the list of functional fields which may
be applicable within each language,
c. Appendix C contains the categories of lexicographical ma-
terials which may be required.
la., The agencies, are requested to indicate the following:
a. The languages in each language group in order of priority.
b. The functional fields in each language in order of priority.
c. The categories of lexicographical materials within each
language and field that will best meet their needs in order of priority
d. Any additions to a, b, and c.

5. It is assumed that the existing resources in the languages of
the Western European area are sufficiently adequate to be excluded. from
the inventory. The two broad areas in which the inventory could usefully
be made are the languages of the European-Soviet complex and the hear
East-Asian languages, the former for obvious strategic reasons, the latter
because of the dearth of resources available to meet operational needs.
6. At the conclusion of the development of these terms of reference
for an inventory CIA will undertake to conduct the inventory, reporting
back to the agencies. At that time a meeting to be held among interested
agencies to determine what, if any, additional lexical materials should be
prepared, perhaps by external research contract.

SUBJECT: Actions to Improve Intelligence Coverage
of Indochina
1. The Office of National Estimates has reviewed with the lAC
representatives the intelligence deficiencies in NIE-35/2 on Indochina.
These are transmitted in TAB A.
2. This is not the first such review accorded intelligence on
Indochinaa Following publication of NIE-35/1 in March of last year,
the Agencies informally noted that estimate's deficiencies in intel-
ligence. The representatives who produced the subject paper noted
that steps taken informally by the Agencies as a result of reviewing
NIE-35/1 were beginning to result in better coverage. In view of this,
the IAC agencies' collection administrators have re-examined the
measures suggested last year for improving intelligence on Indochina.
The actions being taken by agreement of the action offices to meet the
present deficiencies are set forth in TAB B.

LIST OF INTELLIGENCE DEFICIENCIES REVEALED IN
T FE PREPARATION OF NIE- 2 INDOCHINA
A. Viet Minh Developments (in order of priority)
Where at all possible, however, the scope and firmness of U. S.
estimates could be increased as a result of more reliable intelli-
gence on:
(1) The extent of consolidation of control over territories
held or infiltrated by the Viet Minh; the political,
economic, and police instruments of control; the extent
to which the regime is welcome and supported; the degree
of power, if any, enjoyed by non-Communist Party leader-
ship.
(2) The relations, if any, between the Viet Minh and Soviets;
the existence, if any, of frictions between Peiping and
Moscow concerning superior influence over the Viet Minh,
The influence within the Viet Minh of French and other
European Communist advisers.
(3) The frictions, if any, which exist between the Viet Minh
and the Chinese Communists; the effect of traditional
Chinese-Indochinese ill-feeling; the existence, if any
of Viet Minh "nationalist," as distinguished from
"Communist," aspirations; the displacing, if any, of
indigenous leadership and influence by Chinese pressure
of personalities.
(4+) The logistic capabilities of the Viet Minh alone.
(5) The Viet Minh manpower situation.
(6) The state of morale among the Viet Minh leadership and
Army, and among the population within Viet Minh-controlled
territory.

(7) The present role of Ho-Chi-Minh; the other important
figures in the Viet Minh (backgrounds, responsibilities,
etc.).
B. Chinese Communist Developments
A situation somewhat similar to that discussed above exists
as far as Chinese Communist support of the Viet Minh is concerned.
I Ithe fragmentary nature of this intelligence
an the difficulties involved in establishing its reliability
seriously weaken its usefulness. Where at all possible, U. S.
estimates would profit from more reliable intelligence on:
(1) Chinese Communist capabilities with respect to Indochina:
log stic support of the Viet Minh from Communist Bloc
sou:?ces, OB, transportation improvements, stockpiling,
and air force and naval developments; economic capabilities
for more active participation in Indochina.
(2) Chinese Communist "volunteers," if any, with the Viet
Minh; the number, method of integration, command relation-
ships, training, status, function, and influence of these
people.
(3) Chinese Communist "advisors" with the Viet Minh; the
number, training, status, function, and influence of
these people.

indications of hostile action, and the Aultivation of a morbid national
psychology in which skillful, hostile propaganda could induce hysterical
behavior and harmful distrust of duly constituted authority.
4. In order most effectively to strengthen the national facilities
for the timely recognition and, the appropriate handling of true indications
of hostile action, and to minimize the concomitant dangers alluded to
above, the Panel recommends:
a. That the national security agencies take immediate steps
to strip the Unidentified Flying Objects of the special status they
have been given and the aura of mastery they have unfortunately
acquired;
b. That the national security agencies institute policies
on intelligence, training., and public education designed to prepare
the material defenses and the morale of the country to recognize
most promptly and to react most effectively to true indications
of hostile intent or action.
We suggest that these aims may be achirsved by an integrated program
designed to reassure the public of the total lack of evidence of inimical
forces behind the phenomena, to train personnel to recognize and reject
false indications quickly and effectively, and to strengthen regular
channels for the evaluation of and pro t.pt reaction to true indications
of hostile measures.

MEMORANDUM, FOR: IAC REPRESENTATIVES
SUBJECT: Clearances for Individuals Attending
Meetings of the IAC
Because of various uncertainties which have arisen in recent
weeks regarding who is cleared for what material in an IAC meeting,
the following procedures are suggested and, unless objections are
heard, will be followed:
1. Each agency is responsible for ensuring that any individuals
it brings to an IAG meeting are properly cleared for appro-
priate classifications of material.
2. Specifically, it will be assumed that all persons attending
meetings of the IAC have been cleared for COMINT unless
the Secretary has been informed to the contrary in a
particular case. Individuals not having this clearance
should normally be present only for the discussion of the
item with which they are particularly concerned. It is
also requested that whenever such an individual is present
the agency responsible for him remind the meeting of
the security limitations upon their discussions.
3. If Restricted Data is to be discussed an announcement
should be made to that effect and the room cleared as
necessary.

MEETINGS OF THE IAC
1. Since October 1950 regular meetings of the IAC have been
held on Thursdays (IAC-M,2 et seq.). Recent changes in the schedule
of meetings of the National Security Council, as well as the elimina-
tion of the regular Friday briefing of the President, now make it
desirable to consider rescheduling the regular meeting for Tuesdays.
2. In view of the above, and pursuant to paragraph 2 of
DCID 1/1, the Director of Central Intelligence proposes to call

MEMORANDUM FOR: The Intelligence Advisory Committee
SUBJECT . Annual Report of Resistance Intelligence Committee (RIC)
for Fiscal Year 1957/58
1. The RIC in reviewing the flow of resistance intelligence in
fiscal year 1957/58 noted some drop in both the quantity and the quality
of intelligence on resistance following the extraordinary flow of infor-
mation touched off by the relaxation of controls and unrest within the
Soviet bloc during 1956. Publication of NIE 10-58 on March 4, 1958
provided a useful basic study on resistance intelligence and estimate on
resistance potential as of January 1958. Although an effort was made
to estimate the potential under conditions of war the Committee feels
that a future revision of NIE 10-58 should give greater emphasis to
resistance potential under various conditions of modern warfare,
general and local, inasmuch as wartime resistance is the crux of the
problem.
The trend of the flow was downward during the year (with some ex-
ceptions in the Far East) but was far from sinking to the level of the
period
In the USSR, as soon as the increased volume of reports on anti-
regime questioning and ideological deviation stemming from the World
Youth Festival (July-August 1957) subsided, the flow of resistance
intelligence dropped to a low level. A continued decline was noted in
Hungary during the last half of 1957, and the flow was negligible in
1958. In Poland, the volume fell in spring 1958 as labor incidents
diminished. The quantity of resistance reportage on East Germany re-
mained stable, although a one-sided emphasis on opposition to the regime,
particularly in raw, unassimilated intelligence material, still tended
to create the erroneous impression that the regime was in trouble. There
has been no change in the meager flow of resistance intelligence on
Czechoslovakia, Rumania, Bulgaria, and Albania.
In the Far East. the main source of resistance information was the
Communist press;
In Communist China, the press source declined because of restrictions
imposed on publication of statements by "rightists" and other dissenters.
continuing
flow of reports concerning resistance activity in Tibet, an the press
provided some information concerning dissidence in other minority areas,
particularly Sinkiang. In North Vietnam, information on dissidence,
particularly among intellectuals, continued to be available in about the

same volume, mainly in the press;
2. Brakes upon manifestation of dissidence and ideological non-
conformity were applied with increasing vigor throughout the Sino-
Soviet bloc during 1957/58, resulting in. the excommunication of Tito and
the execution of ex-Premier Nagy late in the period. By June 30 the re-
maining source of slight deviation was Poland, and even here controls
over popular expression of dissidence were greater at the end of the
period. The obvious tightening of controls throughout the bloc frus-
trated hopes engendered by the previous relaxation; this may have
increased popular bitterness although evidence is lacking.
The increased expression in the USSR of dissatisfaction during 1957
seemed to fall off during 1958, and a greater effort was made to bring
ideological nonconformists into line. Some unconfirmed reports of court
sentences for erring intellectuals were received early in 1958; expul-
sions of students from schools are known to have occurred. The activ-
ities of Jehovah's Witnesses in the Carpathian:Ukraine resulted in court
sentences in 1957. The drive against revisionist views, however, while
increasing in intensity in 1958, still relied primarily on persuasion
rather than repression and chiefly affected intellectuals. Peasant
dissatisfaction tended further to decrease under the impact of
Khrushchev's agricultural programs.
In Eastern Europe signs of resistance tapered off sharply as a
result of the continued post-revolt cleanup trials in Hungary and high-
level purges in Rumania, East Gel-many, and Bulgaria, which deterred
would-be dissenters. Gomulka's warning to workers that strikes would no
longer be tolerated, plus realization that his regime was the best pos-
sible for Poland under present circumstances, served to contain overt
manifestations of dissent there. Accelerated collectivization drives
in Czechoslovakia, Rumania, and Albania demonstrated the confidence of
the regimes in their ability to maintain widely unpopular programs with
little risk? In East Germany, for the first time since 1953, there were
indications that the people regarded the regime's internal security
position as virtually invulnerable. At the end of the reporting period,
however, the East German regime itself apparently became concerned at
the fact that pressure on intellectuals had resulted in an increased
flow of refugees from professional classes.
The extent of resistance in Western China (Tibet, Chinghai, Kansu
and Sinkiang) probably increased slightly during the spring of 1958.
There also were renewed outbreaks among Tibetan tribes; none has been

comparable to those of March-July 1956, however. As a result of strict
governmental controls and the rectification campaign, resistance potential
has probably declined in the rest of Communist China. On the other hand,
resentment over the reversal of the Government's "100 flowers" policy
probably has increased the level of dissatisfaction throughout the
country.
Resistance activity in North Korea apparently remained approximately
at previous levels and was manifested chiefly in passive resistance and
general dissatisfaction with the regime. In North Vietnam it probably
declined in intensity during the year with no reported outbreaks compar-
able to those of 1956; there were occasional strikes and manifestations
of revisionist attitudes in intellectual periodicals.

Annual Report of Resistance Intelligence Committee (RIC)
for Fiscal Year 1956-57
The Committee noted that official disclosures and other
overt sources have become in the past year an increasingly important
source of resistance intelligence.
2. Resistance in the Soviet Bloc in 1956 erupted into violent
forms, with a temporarily successful revolt in Hungary and out-
breaks in Poland, where the seething continued under the Gomulka
regime. In these countries as elsewhere in the Bloc the 20th
Congress of the Soviet Communist Party gave Impetus to develop-
ments which elicited concern of the Communist regimes.
A low level of resistance continued in the USSR, where
destalinization caused widespread ferment with increased ex-
pression of anti-regime sentiments. This ferment found expression
also in other parts of the Soviet European Bloc. However, there
has been no significant change in resistance activity in Rumania,
Bulgaria, or Czechoslovakia. Strict control held down resistance
activities in East Germany, where the resistance potential is
considerable.
In the Far East the most notable resistance activities
occurred in Tibet, where the Chinese are using troops to hold down

resistance and also have retarded the rate of communization.
Resistance appears to have increased in both mainland China and
in North Vietnam. The paucity of information on North Korea
prevents a valid judgment regarding resistance there.
The pattern of resistance showed great qualitative variation
between anti-Soviet, anti-regime, and anti-Communist. There was
some evidence of an increase in resistance potential even where
resistance activities were not prominent.
3. The RIC on April 9, 1957 approved a letter recommending
to the IAC scheduling of a new NIE on resistance in the Sino-Soviet
Bloc. Initiation of this estimate, 10-57, to replace one of 1955 on
the same subject, was approved subsequently by the IAC. The
Resistance Intelligence Committee was designated as the interagency
coordinating body on country studies entering into this estimate.

Proposed Estimate on Resistance in Sino-Soviet Bloc
Pursuant to the instruction of the IAC (IAC-M-292, item 4)
Mr. Kent have consulted further on certain problems
with respect to production of the proposed estimate on resistance in
the Soviet Bloc (IAC-D-75/8, 19 April; Memorandum to IAC, 31 May).
Assuming that the IAG approves the scheduling of such an estimate,
r. Kent recommend that this paper be produced
under the following procedure:
a. Office of National Estimates, CIA, to draft and
coordinate with the IAC agency representatives a terms
of reference to cover both the estimate and the country
studies.
b. Written contributions to be solicited from all
appropriate parts of the intelligence community, including
the clandestine services of CIA.
c. CIA to furnish the person or persons to draft
the country studies.
d. The Resistance Intelligence Committee to act as
the interagency coordinating committee on these draft
country studies. Presumably the Chairman of RIC would
chair these sessions. CIA (ONE) can underwrite repro-
duction and dissemination of drafts, if this seems desirable.
The IAC should do no more than "note" the finished texts.
e. These country studies will be used by CIA (ONE)
as a basis for the draft estimate. It will be handled as a
regular NIE, including LAG clearance.
2. The question of the scheduling of a resistance estimate, and
its production under the above procedure, will be placed on the agenda
of the IAC meeting now scheduled for 25 June.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: Proposal for an NIE on Resistance Intelligence
1. With respect to the proposal of the Ad Hoc Resistance
Intelligence Committee (RIC) for a new National Intelligence Estimate
on resistance in the Sino-Soviet Bloc (IAC-D-75/8), the recommenda-
tions of the Board of National Estimates are as follows:
a. " In principle, we believe that separate estimates
on resistance, covering the entire Sino-Soviet Bloc, are
not justified. The subject is properly treated only in the
context of an analysis of the political-economic situation
as a whole. In the present. case, however, in view of the
new appreciation of the nature and extent of resistance
potential we have derived from developments over the
last year, we recommend that an estimate be undertaken.
b. "We agree with the RIC proposal that this estimate
should take the form of its predecessor--a short general
estimate, followed by country annexes coordinated at the
working level and noted by the IAC. In contrast to the
previous procedure, we recommend that contributions
from interested agencies should be made to the RIC,
which should then present coordinated country studies to
O/NE along the lines of the annexes to NIE 10-55. These
would constitute drafts of the country annexes, and form
the basis for the overall estimate. Terms of reference
would be drafted by O /NE, taking account of RIC advice."

1. In light of the major developments of significance to resistance
potential in Communist countries, the Resistance Intelligence Committee
recommends that the IAC direct the preparation of a revised National
Intelligence Estimate on anti-Communist resistance potential in the
Sino-Soviet bloc. The RIC recommends that this NIE be initiated in the
fourth quarter of 1957 and that it be produced, like the previous NIE on
resistance (NIE 10-55), in two parts: a general evaluation of the bloc-
wide situation, and, as appendices, a series of separate statements for
each country in the Sino-Soviet bloc which the IAC would simply take
note of and whose coordination would be left to the working-level group.
2. 'In submitting this proposal the RIC has taken into considera-
tion the IAC's decision with regard to the previous recommendation of
the RIC on August 7, 1956 for an NIE on resistance. The RIC considers
that NIE 12-57, while it touches on the resistance situation in Eastern
Europe, provides too generalized a treatment to meet the specific
needs of the intelligence community for agreed conclusions on resistance
in the Sino-Soviet bloc.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
SUBJECT : O/NE Comment on Recommendation of the
Resistance Intelligence Committee (RIC) ..-
1. In its Annual Report the RIC notes various Bloc develop-
ments (the riots in Poland and Georgia, student demonstrations in
Prague, the changes in Satellite ruling circles, etc.) and recommends
that the IAC:
"Agree that a continuation of this trend in the Sino-
Soviet Bloc would warrant a revision of NIE 10-55
(Resistance Potential in the Sino-Soviet Bloc) in late 1956.
2. The Board of National Estimates agrees as to the importance
of analyzing these trends but strongly believes that a revision of a
narrow resistance estimate (which we would have to initiate shortly
to complete in late 1956) is not the best way to handle this problem:
a. While many of the trends in the Satellites and USSR
affect "resistance" potential, they are also far broader in
their implications and can be more effectively dealt with in
broad country and regional NIE's.
b. In particular the Satellite NIE now scheduled for
January 1957 (which would thus overlap any new resistance

estimate) will cover this aspect and be a better vehicle for
so doing.
c. As was noted when the RIC was set up, the real
need in this field is for detailed operational intelligence of a
type which highly generalized national estimates are ill-suited
to provide. The RIC itself was created largely to insure that
this need would be met,
3. Recommendation: That the need for a revision of NIE 10-55
be kept under review by the RIC but that revision during 1956 does not
appear necessary, especially since the new Satellite NIE will cover the
most important aspects.

INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
CONTROL OF OVERSEAS DISSEMINATION OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE
1. The Director of Central Intelligence has been concerned with
the security aspects of the IAC agencies sending national intelligence
(which includes NIS's, SE's, NIS's and EIC's) to their overseas com-
ponents. While it is realized that each agency protects this intelli-
gence through its own security regulations, it is felt that some breach
or violation of security with respect to national intelligence might
be exceptionally hazardous to national security, especially if there is
an accumulation of national intelligence materials concentrated at one
point. Accordingly, CIA initiated informal conversations at the working
level with representatives of State, Army, Navy and Air Force to ascer-
tain current practice in the handling of these materials.
2. On the basis of these discussions, and in order to provide
more adequate assurance to the DCI and IAC members in the control of
national intelligence, CIA proposes that the IAC agree as follows.,
In order to provide immediate knowledge in Washington of the location
and extent of national intelligence filed in overseas installations,
and in order to prevent its unnecessary overseas accumulation, each
agency will maintain in Washington an inventory of such intelligence
forwarded by it to its overseas installations. Each agency will indicate
on each national intelligence item it disseminates overseas a period of
one year or less, normally six months, depending upon the subject matter

INTELLIGENCE ON ANTI-COMMUNIST RESISTANCE
AND RESISTANCE POTENTIAL
1. Reference is made to IAC-D-75/3 (originally circulated
by the Chairman, Resistance Intelligence Committee, as the Report
of the RIC, together with RIR-1, dated 29. June 1954).
2. Below are listed the amendments both to the Report of the
RIC and to RIR-1, agreed to by the IAC at its meeting on 13 July.
(See IAC-M-159).
a. Report of RIC: Paragraph II 1 c, page 2, change to
read: "The continued joint production of detailed finished
intelligence in the resistance field by a subcommittee of the
IAC. . ."
b. Report of RIC: Paragraph 3, page 3, change final
phrase to read "for approval for publication" instead of "for
approval prior to publication. "
c. RIR-1: Paragraph 3, page 4, and paragraph 25, page 21:
In each paragraph change the first sentence to read: "There is no
known recent contact between . . . 11
d. RIR-1: Paragraph 5, page 5. Delete and substitute
therefor paragraph 32, page 25, less last sentence.
3. In line with the G-2 suggestion for an ad hoc interagency
working group and the ensuing discussion at the IAC on 13 July, it is
recommended that the IAC, in addition to approving the Report of the
RIC, direct that:
"An NIE on Anti-Communist Resistance in the Soviet Bloc
shall be produced annually, it being understood that the terms
of reference, the estimate itself, and the post mortem on the
estimate will serve to provide:
a. adequate review of developments in the collec`ion analysis,
and dissemination of intelligence on resistance;

responsibility for intelligence production under proposed Resistance
Intelligence Committee, as set forth in IAC-D-75/2.
.)iscus sign:
2. As the referenced document indicates, Staff .DQaf
UD/P to meet its own needs took the initiative to produce an all-
source intelligence study and supplement on satellite resistance.
DD/P has stated that this function is not appropriately DD/P's and
that it should look to the DD/I for the production of intelligence under
Resistance Intelligence Committee.
3. It is agreed between OCI and DD/P that, whoever has
the responsibility, integration of such intelligence will have to be
accomplished within the Special Center because of the need for
all-source intelligence.

4. In the interagency discussions it was recognized by
all parties concerned that the program set forth in IAC-D-75/2
was one designed to obtain the maximum from the modest re-
sources existing in the community through full coordination. All
understand that no additional production resources are to be
created for this effort.
5. OCI is of the view that it should not take the leadership
for the following reasons:
a. Its charter does not require it to produce
research studies of the type mentioned above unless
so directed by the Director of Central Intelligence.
b. It does not have personnel qualified for this
responsibility.
6. However, OCI states that it does identify indicators and
trends in its normal current intelligence production and will con-
tinue to make available such materials for incorporation in any
studies produced by a Resistance Intelligence Committee.
Recommendation:
M/
7. That[ 4i1be assigned the responsibility of Chairman of RIC,
of contributing from its[cezr*eintetligence take as useful to the
program, and for developing with the other agencies appraisals on
resistance and resistance potential from the materials assembled by
RiC, it being understood that DD/P would be responsible for con-
tributing intelligence information derived from clandestine operations
as feasible.

1. OCI does not concur in the recommendation of the fore-
going paper because:
a) The research required to produce studies on
resistance movements is for operational purposes and
those familiar with operations should produce such
studies as an operational support effort.
*b) UCI lacks qualified personnel to assume this
responsibility.
2. That the .LOCI assign to .DUP the responsibility of serving
as Chairman of the Resistance Intelligence Committee and of develoong
with the other agencies appraisals on resistance and resistance poten-
tial from the materials assembled by RIC, it being understood that
i3CI will continue to contribute from current intelligence such materials
as will be useful to such appraisals. It is of course unde_?stood that
the present beachhead in the special center maintained by DDP would
be available as a location for the integration of these materials.

Problem:
1. To define the needs, capabilities and interagency
arrangements for production of finished intelligence on the
anti-Communist resistance and resistance potential of the

Discussion:
2. Attached (Tab B) is a letter from G-2 to the Chairman
of the IAC outlining the importance of this subject and the need
for detailed intelligence on it as a basis for Army planning.
Recognizing the desirability of utilizing the full resources of
the IAC to meet this need adequately, G-2's letter recommends
the establishment of an IAC ad hoc group to survey anti-Com- '
munist movements and resistance potential in the Soviet bloc
and to prepare studies on current resistance trends diar-ing the ' "`'
()~(Ajq" ' I~u.fir st quarter of 1954.
3. The clandestine service of CIA has for some time been
of the opinion that there is a need for continuing systematic
interagency study of all available materials on this subject. In
fact, to meet its own needs (as well as for possible use by other
agencies) the FI staff produced, on an all-source basis, a study,
"Survey of Resistance Activity in the East European Satellites"
(1 October 1951 to 1 March 1953) which was disseminated on
an informal basis to the military services and the State Depart-
ment. A supplement to this survey has also been disseminated.
4. Discussions with intelligence representatives of State,
Army, Navy, Air Force, JIG and CIA have developed that all
agencies have a pressing need for intelligence in this field to

meet continuing demands for planning and operations. All agencies
have. modest production capabilities except JIG, which has none.
All recognize that definite improvement would be possible through
collaborative efforts in production. Insofar as national intelli-
gence estimates are required, there. already exists a procedure
whereby any IAC agency may request the preparation of such
estimates to meet their needs. It is believed that concerted gaid-
ance to collectors from overt sources ( articularly levying of
25X1Arequirements. on the and peripheral
reporting activities) would obtain considerable additional informa-
Lion.
5. That the IAC establish an ad hoc subcommittee entitled
Resistance Intelligence Committee (RIC), with CIA as chairman
and representation from all IAC agencies. It should coordinate
the preparation, within the agencies' capabilities, of all-source
intelligence studies and projections regarding trends, situations,
and specialized phases of anti-Communist resistance and resist-
ance potential in the Soviet Orbit (including Communist China) re-
quired by the participating agencies. The Committee will define
the information requirements for this research and levy them as
appropriate on the collectors. Upon the conclusion of a draft
study or projection on any area, it will be reviewed by the Com-
mittee prior to dissemination to all the agencies for concurrence
or comment before publication. Sanitized versions of all-source
studies will also be issued.
6. That the Committee submit a report to the lAC within
six months with recommendation for its discontinuance or con-
tinuance as a permanent committee.
7. That the Board of National Estimates take into con-
sideration the relative priority of this subject in connection with
the Board's review of the national intelligence objectives.

5. The representatives have. rec.ognized that the
Agencies' resources for strengthening intelligence production
in this field are limited and that the importance of this subject
does not warrant a high priority among the other competitive
responsibilities now facing the community. Nevertheless, they
felt that some collaborative effort in production and in providing
guidance to collectors (particularly in levying requirements ^
I land peripheral reporting ac-
tivities would probably provide considerable additional informa-
tion.
6. By and large, all of the agencies are interested in
obtaining the results of production in this field. CIA and G-2
have pressing needs for it in order to develop planning.
7. Of the agencies, CIA and G-2 have a modest pro-
duction capability, the State Department can provide some
additional assistance, and the other agencies none.
8. It is believed that, within the limitations of resources,
some improvement can be accomplished by IAC approval of the
following recommendations:
1. That CIA, in cooperation with G-2, be responsible
for the initial production of detailed all-source intelligence
studies on the anti-Communist resistance and resistance
potential in the Soviet orbit/
. 2. That CIA and G-2 collaborate in defining the require-
ments for all agencies to levy on appropriate collectors.
3. That upon conclusion of a draft study on any area,
CIA disseminate the paper to all interested agencies for review
criticism and, when feasible, concurrence prior to publication
and dissemination.

1. Attached hereto is a copy of a letter to the Chairman,,
IAC, from G-2 suggesting that the IAC establish an ad hoc group
to survey Anti-Communist resistance and resistance potentials
in the Soviet Bloc. At CIA's suggestion, General Wil:Lems has
agreed that it would be appropriate and helpful if a working level
group of IAC representatives were convened to formulate recom-
mendations for possible consideration of the IAC after a thorough
examination of this problem.
2. Accordingly, it would be appreciated if you would
designate a representative to meet with the Assistant Director
for Intelligence Coordination (Mr. Reber) in Room 1128 M Building
on Friday 6 November 1953 at 10:30 a. m. to examine this prob-
lem. It is necessary that your representative be cleared for
Special Intelligence and it would be helpful if he had already fam-
iliarized himself with a CIA study which has been made available
to each agency on an informal basis, under the title "Survey of
Resistance Activities in the Eastern European Satellites" dated

2. The SEC prepared a revised forecast of areas re-
quiring scientific intelligence coverage in the NIS and pro-
posed a two-year program (through Fiscal Year 1958) for
production of NIS Chapter VII, which the NIS Committee
approved. In addition, the SEC submitted for NIS Committee
approval a tentative program for production of NIS Chapter
VII in Fiscal Year 1959. The forecast, which was approved
by the NIS Committee, permits more effective concentration
of scientific and technical intelligence manpower on Sino-
Soviet Bloc countries and provides for necessary coverage
of non-Bloc countries of scientific and technical intelligence
importance. The advanced programming provides time for
collection in response to specific collection requirements
and for ensuing research.

A. The SEC shall "intesrate scientific and technical intelli-
gence as and when required, for the production of national intelligence."
1. The SEC has integrated scientific and technical con-
tributions to eleven National Intelligence Estimates and one
Special Estimate. A tabulation of these contributions is at
Tab A.
2. In the course of integrating the contributions to NIEs
65 and 90, three ad hoc working groups were established to
resolve conflicting conclusions in the fields of electronics,
guided missiles, and biological warfare. An additional ad hoc
working group was established to prepare the initial draft of
the SEC contribution to SE-38.
3. In addition to normal dissemination to the SEC members
and to O/NE, detailed SEC contributions to NIE-65 and SE-38
were forwarded to technical organizations in the Department of
Defense. (See Tab A.)
B. The SEC shall "coordinate the production of Chapter VII of
the NIS. "
1. The SEC has coordinated the production of twenty-nine
sections of Chapter VII of the NIS, which are listed at Tab B.
This total includes a backlog of fifteen sections from the
FY-1952 program and fourteen sections of the FY-1953
program. The remaining seven sections of FY-1953 program
(NIS-39, China) are scheduled for completion during October
1953. In the course of coordinating the production of Chapter VII,
four ad hoc working groups were established to eliminate sub-
stantive differences in the drafts of some Sections of NIS-3,
France, and NIS-15, Switzerland.
2. The SEC has proposed a three-year program (through
FY-1956) for production of NIS Chapter VII which the NIS
Committee has tentatively approved. This advanced programming
will provide time for collection in response to specific collec-
tion requirements.
3. An additional ad hoc working group was established to
review and recommend changes in the organization and coverage
of Chapter VII. However, consideration of major changes has
been deferred until completion of the survey to be conducted
by the NIS Committee on user reaction to the NIS. The SEC has

V. OBJECTIVE FOR THE COMING YEAR
In accordance with DCID 3/4, the SEC will continue to concentrate
its attention on the integration of intelligence opinion for the purpose
of improving the scientific and technical contributions to national
intelligence. To accomplish this objective, the SEC intends to:
A. Endeavor to make improvements in the present mechanism
for integrating scientific and technical contributions to national estimates.
At present there is no provision for the receipt by the SEC secretariat
of scientific and technical contributions prior to the date that all contri-
butions are due in the Office of National Estimates. Thus, the SEC
integration process must be carried out on "borrowed time."
B, Conduct independent post-mortems of the scientific and
technical portions of important national estimates, particularly those
which are periodically revised as well as reviews of important sections
of NIS Chapter VII.

INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Proposed Survey of Alerting Procedures in Intelligence
1. NSCID No. 1 assigns specific responsibilities to the IAC
and its member agencies in the event that information is received
indicating impending foreign crisis situations or foreign con-
ditions that affect the security of the United States to such an
extent that immediate action or decision on the part of the President
or the National Security Council seems' to be required.
2. Although alerting procedures exist in each Agency, the
Director of Central Intelligence desires that these procedures
be reviewed as a whole periodically in order that the Director
and the IAG may have maximum assurance of the effectiveness
of procedures for handling emergency situations.
3. Accordingly, the DCI proposes that the IAG collaborate
in a fact-finding survey on this subject. He has assigned responsi-
bility to the Assistant Director, Current Intelligence, who has
25XlAdesignatedl as the Intelligence Officer to conduct
the survey. It is felt that to be effective this survey must begin
at the point of receipt of incoming information and examine all
steps in its routing. The survey would point up gaps in existing
procedures should any gaps exist, and would bring together in
one place the details of these procedures.
4. It would be appreciated if each member would inform
the Secretary of his concurrence in this proposal and designate
an officer who could be a point of contact for 25X1A

Central Intelligence Agency.
- fulfilled requests for information on resistance from
USEUCOM and CINCFE.
- served as a forum for inter-agency discussions of
current resistance developments in the Sino-Soviet
bloc.
2. The RIC review of resistance developments during 1955 showed
no material change in the quantity or quality of the flow of resistance
intelligence from the bloc with the exception of some improvement with
respect to East Germany and Communist China. There was little
evidence of active resistance in 1955 in the Sino-Soviet bloc, although
some passive resistance appears to have continued.
3. Since the Twentieth Party Congress in the USSR, the Soviet
and satellite regimes have undertaken a number of measures ostensibly
designed to liberalize their rule. These measures have apparently
produced different reactions among different groups (the riots in Poland
and Georgia, student demonstrations in Czechoslovakia, changes in
top satellite ruling circles, etc). The RIC, working through the

component agencies, is watching the effects of these measures,to
see whether they tend to invite resistance or to lessen resistance.
Thus far, the available evidence is too limited to justify a revision
at this time of NIE 10-55, Anti-Communist Resistance Potential in
the Sino-Soviet Bloc, April 12, 1955.
4. Recommendation. In conformity with its terms of reference,
the RIC recommends that the IAC:
(1) agree that a continuation of this trend in the
Sino-Soviet bloc would warrant a revision of
NIE 10-55 in late 1956.

INTELLIGENCE ON ANTI-COMMUNIST RESISTANCE
,ice
1. Reference is made to IAC-D-75/3 (originally circulated
by the Chairman, Resistance Intelligence Committee, as the Report
of the RIC, together with RIR-1, dated 29 June 1954).
2. Below are listed the amendments both to the Report of the
RIC and to RIR-1, agreed to by the IAC at its meeting on 13 July.
(See IAC-M-159).
a. Report of RIC: Paragraph II 1 c, page 2, change to
read: !'The continued joint production of detailed finished
intelligence in the resistance field by a subcommittee of the
IAC . . . "
b. Report of RIC: Paragraph 3, page 3, change final
phrase to read "for approval for publication" instead of "for
approval prior to publication. "
c. RIR-1: Paragraph 3, page 4, and paragraph 25, page 21:
In each paragraph change the first sentence to read. "There is no
known recent contact between . . . "
d. RIR-1: Paragraph 5, page 5. Delete and substitute
therefor paragraph 32, page 25, less last sentence.
3. In line with the G-2 suggestion for an ad hoc interagency
working group and the ensuing discussion at the IAC on 13 July, it is
recommended that the IAC, in addition to approving the Report of the
RIC, direct that:
"An NIE on Anti-Communist Resistance in the Soviet Bloc
shall be produced annually, it being understood that the terms
of reference, the estimate itself, and the post mortem on the
estimate will serve to provide:
a. adequate review of developments in the collection analysis,
and dissemination of intelligence on resistance;
