Approved For Release 2009/09/09: CIA-RDP05T00644R000601680055-4 2 5 APR 1977 MEMORANDUM FOR: DDA FROM: Director of Central Intelligence SUBJECT: Classification I understand that the procedures for handling CODEWORD material with regard to signatures, etc., are less complex than for handling TOP SECRET. Thus, many of our people use CODEWORD classification where it is not needed in order to take the easy route. Would you check on this and let me know if we should change our regulations. If so, should such a change apply to the Community as well.
