Approved-,~p]- Relgase 2002/06/25: CIA-RDP76-0Q 1 R000100050219-8 DD/M S 74-2472 STAT STAT Director of Central Intelligence The Agency's Alcohol Prevention and Treatment Prog Bill: 1. With regard to your recent note to me concerning the proposals forth by Mr. I readily concede that has written essive letter. an also willing to agree that 11r. IL as a arm alcoholic, gives every indication of having done extreme ivvate sector. - 2. Having said this, I remain convinced that there is no need for his services, either as a consultant or lecturer. You recall that earlier this year, Mr. a recent retiree, made a what similar proposal that he be hired on a six-month contract to assist in the Agency alcoholism program. After a rather corrlete review of our efforts in this area, I forwarded to you a me orandu dated 11 February 1974, which indi- cateed that we have a three-element program in which the Office of Medical Services and. the Office of Personnel collaborate and, when appropriate, use the services of a volunteer recovered alcoholic. 3. In effect, I feel our program recognizes alcoholism as a treatable illness; it conforms to p guidelines; an there is no real STAT benefit in consult wi i L557 any more than there was a need to STAT consult with '+t. I age n urge that you sign the letter that has been drafted by a Office of Personnel. Harold L.
