The Deputy Director (Research) is unable to coordinate the
proposed organization directive in the latest revision of HN 1
for the following specific reasons:
a. Paragraph 1. The Deputy Director (Research)
considers that the research and development mission outlined
in this paragraph is essentially as indeterminate as the version
contained in the original HN 1 - of several weeks ago. As
you are well aware, we have been unable to convert that direc-
tive language into any definitive decisions or actions. Until
this subject is clearly defined, with statements concerning the
transfer of funds, personnel, projects, etc., I believe we will
be unable to proceed on any definitive agreements between the
Deputy Directors involved.
b. Paragraph 2. The lase sentence should be removed
and oe replaced by one which states "All ELINT activities,
including funds, manpower authorizations, and materiel of the
Deputy Director (Support), Deputy Director (Plans), and Deputy
Director (Intelligence) will be transferred to the Deputy
Director (Research) as soon as possible and no later than
15 August 1962". This para raph should also contain the
25X1 appointment of I las Assistant Director of the
Office of ELINT.
c. Paragraph 3. No comment, except that I should like
to know what decisions have been made on I land the
T/O.

d. Paragraph 4. No comment, except that such a "request"
is unlikely to produce much action until the responsibilities are
more clearly defined.
e. Paragraph 5. This should be rewritten to authorize the
establishment of a Scientific and Technical Career Council under
the guidance of the Deputy Director (Research), since it is
infeasible to establish such a career service when the major
scientific and technical components are not under DD/R control.
