The Honorable Brien Mckahon
Chairman
Joint Committee on Atomic Energy
Congress of the United States
Washington 25, D. G.
Thank you for your letter of 22.January 1951 in
which you request a report on Soviet capabilities to
counter the delivery of U. S. atomic weapons. An estimate
of this scope will require the participation of the Weapons
Systems Evaluation Group of the Department of Defense, which
I have requested. This Agency is willing to undertake the
responsibility of preparation and of bringing the estimate
into the current schedule of intelligence production. This
will take some time as a detailed study will be necessary,
but, I believe we can have a satisfactory estimate ready for
you by April 1.
Your letter also requests information as to the
background of the semi-annual report whIch was recently
delivered to you. Since this information is of a very
sensitive nature, I have asked Mr. Walter Pforzheimer to
discuss with you informally the best means by which it can
be transmitted to you.
With kindest regards, I am
Sincerely,
(signed) Walter B. Smith

MEMORANDUM FOR: THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
SUBJECT: Request from Joint Congressional Committee on
Atomic Energy
1. Senator Brien McMahon, Chairman, Joint Congressional
Committee on Atomic Energy, has requested a comprehensive estimate
on Soviet capabilities "to impair, prevent, or frustrate the
delivery of atomic weapons to targets inside the USSR."
2. This agency, with the assistance of the Departmental
intelligence organizations, is willing to undertake the prepara-
tion of the necessary estimate, which we believe is desirable to
insure Congressional support.
3. However, Senator McMahon's request necessitates an appraisal
of Soviet defensive capabilities in terms of U. S. offensive capabili-
ties, and this can only be done with the cooperation of the Weapons
Systems Evaluation Group because of its recent operational analyses
in this field.
4+, Therefore, I request your authorization for the Weapons
Systems Evaluation Group to participate in this project. The finished
product will be issued as a national estimate with the same limited
distribution as that recently given to the report on the Soviet atomic
energy program.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Secretary
Intelligence Advisory Committee
SUBJECT : Terms of Reference and Membership for the
Joint Atomic Energy Intelligence Committee
1. Pursuant to the general provisions of NSCID No. 3 the
Joint Atomic Energy Intelligence Committee was constituted as a
working group under the Scientific Intelligence Committee on
21 November 1949. Later, under provisions of DCID 3/4, in
August 1952, the Joint Atomic Energy Intelligence Committee
(JAEIC) was reconstituted "as a permanent interdepartmental
committee with the same structure and functions as before."
2. The present JAEIC membership is as follows:
a. CIA, Chairman
b. State Department
c. Atomic Energy Commission
d. Army
e. Navy
f. Air Force
$. JCS
h. FBI
Ad-Hoc
j.
OSD
3. The JAEIC approved terms of reference are forwarded
herewith as enclosure 1. The functions listed are essentially
identical with those transmitted to the SIC on 24 March 1950 and
under which the JAEIC has been onerating since that date. It is
recommended that enclosure 1 be published as Annex C to DCID 3/4.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT : Briefing Memorandum on JAEIC Terms of Reference,
IAC Agenda Item
1. The proposed Terms of Reference for JAEIC have been
approved by all the full members of JAEIC. The functions are
essentially the same as those agreed upon in the past, but in
some cases they are spelled out a bit more clearly. The definition
of atomic energy intelligence, see Footnote J to the.Terms of
Reference, is new and limits JAEIC activities more than the old
NIA Directive 9 which defined it as follows: "All intelligence
information related to foreign atomic energy intelligence
developments and potentialities affecting the national security."
The present definition is acceptable to O/SI.
2. There has been considerable discussion within JAEIC on
this definition and it is possible that the Joint Staff or some
other military member might attempt to still further restrict
JAEIC fields of interest by recommending changes at the meeting.
In particular, they may wish to add at the end additional items
to be excluded from atomic energy intelligence. These might be
tactics and techniques of employment of nuclear weapons by armed
forces, or the political and strategic implications of various
weapon developments. He may also try to insert "scientific and
technical" between"is" and "intelligence" in the first line.
Although JAEIC does not intend to concentrate or do any extensive
estimating in these fields, these limitations are not considered
desirable. These fields must be considered in making an over-all
evaluation of the Soviet nuclear program.
3. It is considered that these proposed JAEIC functions are
good guide lines for other similar committees which may be set up
under the IAC. For example, we would recommend that the proposed
Guided Missile Committee have identical functions. Likewise, if
the charter of the SEC is revised, these functions might be
satisfactory for it as well.

1. In connection with item 8 of the Agenda for 5 September,
we have been advised by JAEIC that it has issued a second statement,
dated 30 August, dealing with a later explosion. This statement,
available from your JAEIC representatives, will be placed on the
agenda for the 5 September meeting.
2. In connection with both statements, the IAC, should
consider, in compliance with the paragraph 5 of DCID 11/1 (as
revised 17 July 1956), the question of release to foreign governments.
We are informed that JAEIC has made no recommendation on this
question, which appears to involve issues both of security and of
policy in the dissemination of information on nuclear matters which
is withheld from the US public.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Chairman, Intelligence advisory Committee
SUBJECT : Scope of Part II of NIE 11.-2-57 and Scope of Future
IAC Responsibility for Nuclear Weapon Allocations
1, In an attempt to accomplish the task of preparing a Part II
for NIB 11-2-57 an Ad Hoc Working Group was formed and has held a
number of meetings during June and July. This group has encountered
basic differences of view concerning the scope of the estimate and,
in discussion of the issues, has uncovered what appear to be basic
differences as to the responsibility the IAC should assume in the
field of estimating Soviet nuclear weapon allocations. At a joint
meeting of the Senior IAC representatives and JAEIC members on
24 July these: issues could not be resolved. We therefore regret-
fully submit the problem to the lAG for resolution.
2. The immediate issue concerns whether Part II should be done
at all,, or w e er, it is done, it should include merely illustra-
tive examples or should include a broad high-low range of possible
allocations divided broadly by missions and delivery systems. The
alternatives are:
Alternative A: no Part II at all.

4. Agency Positions. The tentative Agency positions appear to
a. On the immediate issue of Part II of NIE 11-2-57:
State Air Force, and CIA favor going ahead with
erna ve for C approval.
AEC and JIG favor going only as far as Alternative B,
but would accept Alternative C.
Army and Navy favor Alternative A, or Alternative B
at most the event Alternative B is adopted, the
Army would oppose the inclusio,). f Section I-IV and
favor solely the statement on i,iathomatieal possibilities.
b. On the long-term issue of MC responsibility:
State, Air Force and C If1 -- in the event that the
present exercise does not produce an Alternative D
result -- favor the II.C taking responsibility for
an appropriate project to produce an'Alternative D
result at the earliest possible time, whether as
part of NIE 11-Ii-57 or as a separate project. Such
a project would include explicit discussion of
possible Soviet strategy, relevant delivery systems,
and war-gaming factors (with outside advice as needed).
AEC favors the IAC taking responsibility for an
appropriate project to produce an Alternative D
result at the earliest feasible time, provided
that Soviet strategic policy can be outlined in
sufficient detail to provide meaningful guidelines.
Arr
__ttNaavy and JIG do not favor the TAC taking
responslbi. i y at any time for an Alternative D
result in the absence of a clear and convincing
showing of consumer requirements, particularly at
the NSC level.

1. In accordance with the instructions of the I.'.C (IAC-11-300,
paragraph 5, 30 July 1957) a Working Group of your repnr:sentatives
continued work during August and September on a 'art II draft for
NIE 11.2.57, the Narch 1957 estimate on the Soviet nuclear ,Program.
'Early in October, this work was suspended as it became clear from the
progress of NIE 11-21-57 and the G14IC and J!;'',IC contributions to this
estimate and to NIE 11-10-57 that there uere sure to he substantial
changes in the estimates both of nuclear weapon development dates
and of development and production dates for major delivery systems.
2. The Doard of National Estimates and the Chairman, JAEIC,
now believe that every effort should be made to complete a section
on nuclear weapon allocation for inclusion in the forthcoming new
estimate rn the Soviet nuclear energy proram, NE" 11-2-58, now

scheduled to reach the IAC in mid-January. ??Te recognize that
there may remain disagreement over the scope of such an allocation,
but we believe that (a) this disagreement can best he resolved in
the light of an actual draft reflectin; the dif:! ercnt viewpoints,
and (b) that the Working Group is in a position to adapt its past
work to present such a draft, probably concurre.ntiy with the
submission of the basic estimate to the I.W.
3, Accordingly, we rocormencl that the IWC direct that the
Working Group continue its work and prcparo to submit a draft
(reflecting the various scope alternatives), in the light of the
proposed conclusions of NIE ll-2-58 as to the supply of fissionable
materials and weapons types, as nearly concurrently as possible with
the corm lotion of the balance of NID 11-2.58.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Chairman
Intelligence Advisory Committee
SUBJECT . Coordination of Intelligence Guidance and Collection
Activities at the Geneva 1958 International Conference
on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy
1. The second Geneva International Conference on Peaceful Uses of
Atomic Energy scheduled for 1=11+ September 1958 offers a unique oppor-
tunity for the intelligence community to acquire a great deal of infor-
mation on Soviet nuclear energy activities via the information released
by the Soviets as well as additional data by an exploitation of overt
and covert sources. A wide range of subjects that are important from
an intelligence standpoint have been included on the Provisional Topical
Agenda published through the United Nations for this conference, and
extensive Soviet Bloc participation is assured. There will be oppor-
tunities for extensive overt coverage and only a small overt effort
against several key areas of information appears necessary.
2. A particularly timely exploitation of this conference is
needed to assure prompt reporting and evaluation of the information
obtained in order for JAEIC to complete its annual NIE on the Soviet
atomic energy program during October and November 1958. Information
derived from Geneva should make a substantial contribution to the Estimate
as was, .the :case in 1955.
3. Interested analytical and collection elements are already
planning a number of actions and the AEC, Division of Intelligence, has
initiated some steps to coordinate these efforts. It is believed that
the sizeable intelligence effort required, if carefully coordinated,
can be carried out without interfering with, or deterring, the basic
US objectives.
4. Under NSCID No. 2, the Departments of State, Army, Navy and
Air Force as well as CIA all have responsibilities for the collection of
scientific and technical intelligence'that is obtainable through this
conference. In addition, the AEC is, vitally interested in this intelli-
gence, and has a responsibility for collecting intelligence through its
representatives to the conference. The best possible community approach
is needed to satisfy these complex intelligence interests and preserve
the sanctity of the intent of the Conference.

5. It is the opinion of JAEIC that the IAC should take cognizance
of this need for concerted, but'carefully coordinated, intelligence
effort, and should sponsor the needed coordination. We recommend that
the IAC note this memorandum and approve the following:
a. There shall be a concerted and carefully coordinated
effort under IAC auspices to exploit the second International
Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy for intelligence
purposes. This effort shall in no way jeopardize the basic US
objectives of this conference;
b. The responsibility for coordinating all aspects of this
intelligence effort is assigned to JAEIC on an ad hoc basis, and
JAEIC shall advise the IAC as soon as practicable after the
completion of this conference of the intelligence gain and
experience acquired from a collection standpoint.
6. It is my intent that this coordination effort will be handled
by an ad hoc working group under Dr. Charles Reichardt, the Atomic Energy
Commission JAEIC member, and that the group include working level repre-
sentatives of both collection and evaluation elements to the extent
desired by member agencies. Any formal coordination of clandestine
collection found necessary can be accomplished via existing mechanisms
for that purpose with the aid of collection guidance generated by this
working group-

BRIEF FOR: Director of Central Intellige
SUBJECT : Coordination of Intelligence Guidance and Collection
Activities at the Geneva 1958 International
Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy
1. The attached recommends that the IAC assign to JAEIC,
on an ad hoc basis, the responsibility for coordinating intelli-
gence exploitation of the Geneva atomic energy conference, i-14
September 1958.
2. All members of JAEIC have agreed to this proposal but
there may be some reluctance on the part of the AEC when the
matter comes before the IAC. The AEC-JAEIC member, Dr. Reichardt,
agreed to the attached text only after exhaustive argument
concerning the intent of language in He favors the
formation of a steering group under J s rec ion as we propose,
but has argued that this group should be directly under IAC
rather than JAEIC.
3. The AEC declined to accept responsibilities for atomic
energy intelligence collection abroad during the rewrite of
While some effort may be made to interpret present
wording to include this responsibility for the Geneva Conference,
I do not believe the intent of the present directive can be thus
interpreted.
4. I strongly recommend that the JAEIC proposed plan be
adhered to and approved. It is needed to provide coordination
of the many diverse requirements and collection problems which
will arise as planning for the conference proceeds. We were not
satisfied with our "take" from Geneva in 1955 and believe that
stronger coordination will produce better results.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: Memorandum From the Chairman, JAEICC, Dealing with
Revision of Certain Parts of NIE 11.2-57t 5 June
The Board of National Estimates has reviewed the referenced
memorandum with a view to whether any new NIE should be issued in
the immediate future to take account of the revisions stated. It
is our conclusion that the subject is not of such crucial importance
as to call for such action, either through a new NIE or "Memorandum
to Holders" such as was recently used for SNIE 11-10-57 (ICBM).
2, However, we believe that policy-makers concerned in the
subject should have the benefit of the current JAEIC view. Accordingly,
we recommend that the IAC note the attached memorandum and direct that
JAEIC distribute its more detailed memorandum on the subject, now
available, to all holders of NIE 11-2-57 and NIE 11-2-58.

FACTS BEARING ON THE PROBLEM
(for facts, see Inclosure 1)
CONCLUSIONS
2 In blocking the reception of VOA broadcast programs in
territory within the U.S.S.R. and Satellites, the preponderant
advantage and possibility of success lies with the Russian jamming
organization due to inherent, inescapable physical factors. Improve-
ment in the extent to which the VOA can be made accessible to Russian
listeners can be achieved by informed manipulation of the broadcast
and relay frequencies and directional aspects of the VOA transmitters
based upon knowledge of the Russian jamming ability at the time.
This knowledge can be partially obtained by a monitoring organiza-
tion capable of identifying and locating the Russian transmitters
and frequencies available for interference operations. The ultimate
success of the jamming operation versus the penetration effort would
be determined by Russian decision as to the scale of their jamming
effort.
.3. An effort in support of the VOA program would provide
valuable information concerning Russian potential to block or inter-
fere with other communication services of the U. S. government and
possibly lead to the development of techniques for combatting such
interference.

4. Under present intelligence priorities and service opera-
tional requirements, existing facilities of the military services
and AFSA are not available for application on the required scale to
the problem of obtaining adequate information on present Russian
jamming of the VOA and potential Russian ability to interfere with
other U. S. communications. The facilities of the Services and
AFSA now installed overseas are not technically suited to a solu-
tion of this problem. No other agencies of the U. S. maintain
suitable facilities where they are required.
5. A program for obtaining information on Russian jamming and
potential for radio interference, such as suggested in Inclosure 2,
could be initiated at an estimated initial cost of $5,000,000 for
the first year and the provision of 355 trained technicians. The
effectiveness and success of this undertaking would be gradual
and in proportion as equipment and personnel became realities and
experience was gained, but the ultimate degree of success cannot
be predicted.
6. Operational direction of a program such as that envisaged
in Inclosure 2 could be conducted most effectively by AFSA which
now has the most complete store of information on Russian communi-
cations activities, is continuously acquiring this information, has
communications with and operational reporting from several of the

monitoring sites in the suggested program, and has had wide experi-
ence in the field of monitoring and transmitter location and
identification.
7. It is possible to render a minor amount of assistance to
the VOA program with existing Service facilities and personnel.
This amount of assistance to the VOA will not appreciably improve
the penetration of Soviet jamming and other interference nor will
it materially increase the amount of information obtained which will
assist other U. S. Government communications services in combatting
present and future Soviet radio interference,
8. If a program such as that indicated in Inclosure 2 is under-
taken, full advantage and use should be made of the experience and
technical knowledge of other agencies which have previously dealt
with this or similar problems, e. g., the FCC.
9. A program of obtaining information on Russian jamming
potential by direct intercept, D/F, and signal analysis would in no
way diminish the need for obtaining intelligence on the problem by
other means, such as covert operations, COMINT, and reporting by
diplomatic missions suitably located.

FACTS BEARING ON THE PROBLEM
1. Intentional jamming of the radio relay circuits and broad-
casting channels of the VOA programs is being carried out by Russian
radio transmitters with the result that only an estimated 100 of
the Russian language broadcasts of the VOA can be received in the
U.S.S.R. There is similar Russian interference with VOA programs
designed and engineered for reception in the European Satellite
States of the U.S.S.R.' Greece, Iran, and China. There has occurred
in recent months sporadic intentional interference with U. S. Ser-
vice communications and International Commercial radio communica-
tions, apparently created by Russian or Satellite organizations.
2. The effectiveness, skill and occasional misdirection of
this interference with the VOA indicate the existence in the U.S.S.R.
of a carefully engineered, well operated and lavish system of radio
jamming under competent control and probably under central direction.
3. The capability and effectiveness of this Russian jamming
organization are such that it could create serious interference
with, if not total blocking of, communication circuits of other
U. S. government services, particularly the armed forces' trans-
oceanic circuits and other radio channels serving forces afloat and
ashore in Europe, Africa, the Western Pacific islands and the main-

land of Asia.
4, The number of Russian broadcast transmitters has been
increasing in the recent past, particularly in Western Russia, the
Satellites and the Russian occupied zones of Germany. The frequen-
cies of these broadcasters interfere with those of the VOA Western
German stations and Armed Forces Network stations in Germany and it
appears certain that the purpose of many of these transmitters is
not to deliver Russian government programs but to block programs of
other governments, such as the VOA and B.B,C,.
5? In the case of radio broadcasting there is no way now
known to science of combatting jamming interference created by
jammer signals of approximately equal or greater strength than the
broadcast signal in the area of intended reception other than by
avoiding the frequencies on which it is possible for the jammer to
produce such interference.
6. In the case of radio relay to the broadcasting point (as
is necessary for the VOA) or in the case of point to point radio
communication (as for government service or commercial circuits)
the effect of jamming interference can be diminished by knowledge-
able manipulation of the transmission frequency; in effect "dodging"
the jamming.
7? In either case the degree of success in evading interfer-
ence is dependent upon (a) immediate knowledge by the transmitting

ranges of active and available jamming transmitters, (b) the ability
of the jamming organization to "follow" frequency shifts by the
point-to-point or broadcasting transmitters and (c) availability of
jamming transmitters so located and employing power and frequencies
such as to produce an effective jamming signal at the receiver.
8. A considerable amount of information on Russian trans-
mitters of all Russian communications services is available in AFSA
and is being continuously and systematically expanded; much less
information on Russian broadcasting and active jamming transmitters
is available and information on these two types is not being syste-
matically developed.
9. Little or nothing is known of the Russian organization
responsible for this operation or of the method of control of the
jamming operations. Information on these subjects is essential to
the planning of adequate counter measures.
10. The Navy Security Branch can, with existing facilities,
render the following assistance to the VOA: daily, but at times
which would be dependent upon operational commitments (of first
priority), obtain and transmit by rapid means to a designated center
D/F bearings of Russian jamming transmitters from stations as
follows:

12. The Air Force Security Service considers that its exist-
ing facilities are insufficient for its primary mission and could
not, therefor, be committed to any continuing program of assistance
to the VOA. The AFSS can, however, accept specific D/F missions
from the VOA and attempt to locate specified transmissions within
the limitations of available facilities and after satisfying other
assignments of first priority.
13. Technically, the problem of separating and taking bearings
on several Russian interfering radio signals transmitted simultan-
eously on the same frequency from different localities is extremely
difficult. Employment of supressed carrier or other unusual techni-
ques will add to the difficulty. The Navy maintains only one D/F
in the Atlantic net favorable located outside the Continental U. S.
which severly limits the accuracy of positions of transmitters in
Russia located by this D/F network..
.14. The FCC has provided a limited amount of information on
Russian jamming transmitters and has had. considerable experience in
the type of D/F and monitoring operations required for the VOA prob-
lem. Certain British organizations have had similar experience of
value.
15. Additional facilities to obtain information on Russian
jamming activities and on radio transmitters capable of interfering
with U. S. communications could be provided and maintained far more

16. An organization of monitoring, direction finding, signal
analysis and rapid communications facilities for the purpose of
assisting the VOA in the present problem of increasing its penetra-
tion of Russian jamming and for providing information of value to
the military and other government communications services in com-
batting future Russian interference with U. S. radio communications
could be provided at an estimated initial cost of $5,000,000. This
would include equipment, installation and operating costs for the
first year. Additionally, there would be required 355 trained
technicians. Such an organization is outlined in I}closure 2,
17. There is a deficit of trained personnel, direction finder,
intercept and signal analysis equipment, communications equipment
and frequencies for any effective program for obtaining information
on Russian jamming potential. The approved programs for the expan-
-sion of AFSA facilities and those of the service cryptologic agencies
would be in conflict or competition with an effort to alleviate the
jamming problem, present and potential, from the standpoint of pro-
curement of trained personnel and facilities.

MEMORANDUM FOR: EXECUTIVE SECRETARY OF THE NATIONAL
SECURITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Intelligence Support for the Voice of
America with regard to Soviet Jamming
Reference is made to my memorandum of September 7, 1950,
on the above subject, forwarding the Report of the Ad Hoc Committee
on Voice of America Jamming, and noting that Recommendation 3 of
the Report regarding establishment of an additional monitoring
facility would be referred to the U.S.C.I.B.
The Chairman of USCIB has now forwarded to me the attached
report which recommends, in brief, that an additional monitoring
facility be established under the operational direction of AFSA and
delineates the requirements in terms of facilities, personnel and
equipment for the establishment of such a facility. This U.S.C.I.B.
report and its recommendations have the unanimous approval of IAC.
In the light of the USCIB report and further consideration
of the problem, the IAC now submits, for the consideration of the
Council in connection withNSC 66, the following final recommenda-
tions which incorporate the recommendations of the USCIB report and
the recommendations of the earlier IAC report, appropriately revised:.
1,.. That a readjustment of priorities among existing intelli-
gence tasks or a reallocation of the use of existing intelligence
facilities should not be undertaken.
2. That there should be established an additional monitoring
-activity to obtain and provide information on current Soviet radio
communication activities which will assist the VOA in its program

and assist other US Government communications services in combat-
ting present and future Soviet radio interference, and that this
additional monitoring activity be established, coordinated and
operated as follows:
a. The initial program for this activity should be under-
taken along the lines suggested in Enclosure 2 of the USCIB
Report of 28 November 1950-
b. This activity should monitor and locate Russian
jamming signals and other interfering transmitters and should
convey promptly and continuously to the VOA and other interested
US communications services such resulting information as will
assist them to improve their reception.
c. This activity should not interfere with existing
monitoring programs, particularly from the standpoint of equip-
ment and personnel,
d, This activity should be thoroughly coordinated with
existing monitoring activities.
e. In view of the COMINT aspects of this program, USCIB

SPECIAL REPORT OF THE NIS COMMITTEE
1. The NIS Committee has for some time been concerned over
the general situation in respect to basic intelligence collection,
maintenance, and production for the NIS Program. In view of the
increasingly critical international situation, the Committee is of
the opinion that much greater emphasis must be given to the NIS
Program. to provide the essential basic intelligence on strategically
important world areas at the earliest practicable date. The Com-
mittee has therefore examined this matter and has arrived at
certain conclusions, set forth hereinafter) which it,desires be
laid before the Director of Central Intelligence for consideration
by the Intelligence Advisory Committee.
2. The actual operations of the NIS Program have extended
over the past two years. The experience of this period confirms
the essential soundness of the Program as a means of developing
the basic intelligence needed by the Government. There has been
a vacillation of support by the Intelligence Agencies, however,
which has greatly complicated the task and weakened the production
effort. Moreover, the uneven quality of NIS contributions indi-
cates a serious lack of qualified personnel available for NIS work.
The NIS Committee considers that no real measure of improvement in.,
the NIS Program can be realized at any level of effort without first
effecting a fundamental improvement in these aspects of the Program.
3. Recently the Secretary of Defense has directed the Armed
Forces Agencies to assign support sufficient to maintain NIS pro-
duction at the equivalent rate of eight NIS a year on a long range,
continuous basis. At this rate of production there should be
available by the end of this fiscal year the approximate equivalent
of 18 NIS. Considering only the 60 high priority areas contained
in the JCS list, there will still remain the equivalent of 42 NIS
to be produced beginning with fiscal year 1952. How soon this job
should be done is determined by the national security interests.
How soon this job will be done is determined. by the amount of
support which is directed toward its accomplishment,
4. At a sustained rate of production of 8 NIS a year the
NIS on all high priority areas will be completed and placed fully
on a maintenance basis sometime during fiscal year l957.. This is
nearly 5 years beyond the original target date approved in 19+8
by the IAC, the JCS, and the NSC. In spite of the urgency of the
present situation, the Committee feels that too much time has
already been lost to make the original target date a feasible goal.
The Committee therefore agrees that an intermediate target date

should be set on the basis of a reasonably attainable augmentation
of NIS production capabilities within the CIA and the IAC Agencies.
This is indicated in the following table and sets the completion
of the primary requirements by the end of fiscal year 1954. There
will also be needed additional capabilities for the maintenance
of published NIS.

5. In order to achieve the foregoing NIS production scliedule,
it will be necessary to build up a competent staff in each agency
actually capable of this production at the beginning of the fiscal
years involved. To do this needs more than mere authorization. It
needs the assignment of a priority for the NIS Program in each agency
commensurate with its importance and sufficient to ensure the acqui-
sition of this staff both through new recruitment and through re-
alignment of agency capabilities. Moreover, there will be needed a
greatly increased collection effort to fill the serious gaps which
now exist and to keep the basic intelligence up to date. The NIS
Committee therefore recommends:
a. that the NIS on all JCS high priority areas be com!leted
and placed fully on a maintenance basis by 30 June 1954;
b. that the Intelligence Agencies assign to the NIS Program
a degree of priority which will ensure the summary attainment of
adequate production and maintenance capabilities for this task;
and.
c, that the collection of NIS requirements on high priority
areas be afforded the necessary increased support.

of the necessary departmental capabilities to meet this pro--

NIS COMMITTEE FINDINGS
-SECRET
IAC-D-1 1
13 March 1951
1. The following questions were asked the NIS Committee:
a. At the presently authorized T/0 of the contributing
agencies, which is based on the production of the equivalent
of 8 NIS a year, when will the NIS be completed on the 2L
Highest Priority Areas contained in reference memorandum?
b. Assuming the rate of production proposed by the NIS
Committee in its Special Report of 16 February 1951, when
will the NIS be completed on the 2t Highest Priority Areas
contained in reference memorandum?
c. What portions of the NIS outline do the IAC Agencies
consider could be omitted with a view to reducing the pro-
duction load?
Completion Dates
2. The Committe feels that, while a certain amount of
production on the new Highest Priority Areas is already being
accomplished, it will require an appreciable length of time
before maximum effort can be directed to these new Highest
Priority Areas. In many instances, area specialists will have
to be recruited. In other instances, current production will
have to be completed before starting work on some sections of
the Highest Priority Areas in order that the large amount of
production work already accomplished will not be wasted. In
other words, it takes time to realign NIS production to new
priority objectives. Moreover, the existing staffs in the
contributing agencies include area specialists concerned with
other high priority areas who should continue NIS production
in the interests of realizing the maximum production capabilities
of these agencies. There is no assurance, either, that some of
these other high priority areas may not be raised in priority
at some later date.
SECRI, .T@SECRET
3. Taking into account the above factors, and based on
the assumption that adequate staffs can be recruited within a
reasonable time, the NIS Committee considers that the NIS on
the Highest Priority Areas can be completed with the presently

authorized T/0-by 30 June 1953. The NIS Committee further
considers that, while the NIS production rate proposed by the
Committee in its Special Report of 16 February 1951 will be
capable of a much greater "across-the-board" production of the 60 High Priority Areas than with the presently authorized T/O,
the completion of the NIS on the new 2)4 Highest Priority Areas
will be accomplished with the proposed larger staffs about six
months earlier, or 30 December 1952.
Portions That Could Be Omitted
)4. The NIS Committee members stated that their agencies
did not consider that any substantial reduction in the NIS
outline should be made. The Air Force is eliminating certain
Order of Battle data in Section 83, Chapter VIII (Armed Forces),
but since this information is maintained by the Directorate of
Intelligence as a standing requirement, its exclusion from the
NIS will not appreciably reduce the amount of effort necessary
to produce this NIS section. The NIS Committee has kept NIS
requirements under continuing revision since the inception of
the NIS Program, and the Committee considers that any major
reduction in the present requirements would be prejudicial to
the NIS Program.

CIA FINDINGS
'-SECRET
IAC-D-13/1
13 March 1951
1. CIA was requested to consider the following questions
relating to the NIS program:
a. How can CIA be. of assistance to the military
services in their recruitment for NIS positions?
b. Could sections.af the NIS be prepared under
contract by Universities or private research groups?
c. Could training programs be instituted to pro-
vide more analysts with the special kinds of competence
required for NIS work?
Recruitment Assistance
2. The CIA personnel office is in touch with the Army
NIS people and will endeavor to render such assistance as
they can. Upon preliminary examination CIA believes it can
be most helpful by making available the services of CIAis
recruiting teams and by drawing on extensive CIA application
files. This can best be done by getting the Army's specific
qualification requirements, Although the matter is still
under study, it does not now appear that CIA can be of much
assistance with regard to the civil service aspects of the
problem or financial support.
Contract Research
3. Arrangements of this kind have been tried in the past
with somewhat unsatisfactory results. There is a tendency for
academic experts to reflect in their contributions special
points of view which are not in keeping with the purely objec-
tive and factual tone required in the Surveys. An understanding
of the precise specifications, requirements, and editorial
character of the NIS can be acquired only by a contact between
the writer and the editorial group closer than that which is
possible when the work is done in a distant city by people not
familiar with the program. Finally, in many cases a good deal
of classified material must be used in the preparation of the
Surveys which cannot easily be made available to private groups.
The possibilities of having completed sections ready for publi-
cation farmed out on contract do not, therefore, look promising.

4. On the other hand, a real saving in the time and
effort needed for final preparation in Washington may be
possible by having done at Universities background studies
which assemble some of the basic material and which can then
be edited and blended with classified data by the Washington
agencies. The extent to which this can be done depends upon
the availability in private institutions of qualified analysts
and information relating to the high priority areas. The
External Research Staff maintained jointly by the State Depart-
ment and the CIk is currently conducting an inventory of the
research facilities of 90 leading colleges and universities
throughout the United States. When this survey has been com-
pleted it will be matched with the list of NIS sections still
to be done on the high priority areas to determine the specific
possibilities of contract research. It is believed, however$
on the basis of a preliminary comparison of the sections to be
done and the probable research facilities available that only
a few contracts of this kind will turn out to be feasible or
desirable.
Training
5. The problem of training analysts for NIS work is
inseparable from the broader problem of training people capable
of doing competent research on various areas of the world. The
principal. requirements for NIS analysts are a sound grounding
in one or more of the major disciplines (e.g. economics, political
science, history, military science) etc.) and some academic study
in the language, institutions, and characteristics of an area of
the world. No short program of special instruction can supply
these qualifications, which can be furnished only by appropriate
academic training. Such special skills as are peculiar to NIS
production are best acquired by on-the-job training in the NIS
program itself.
6. Any increase in the number of area specialists being
turned out by the colleges and universities, and any improvement
in methods of drawing such people into intelligence work will
benefit the NIS program. The problem of ways of encouraging the
universities to expand their area programs is one which CIA is
considering jointly with the State Department.

SUBJECT: Conflict Between NIE 40 and Sections of the NIS
I have been ins-cructed by the Economic Intelligence Committee
to request from the IAC a statement of the relative priority of
NIE 40* and certain sections of the NIS program. At the last
meeting of the EIC both the Army and the Navy representatives indi-
cated that preparation of their assigned sections on NIE 40 would
cause considerable delay in their submission of certain NIS assign-
ments. In view of this conflict and in response to the Navy's
request the detailed terms of reference for the economic sections
were pared down to the absolute minimum necessary to answer the
central question raised by the estimate. The Army and Navy repre-
sentatives indicated that in spite of this revision a delay in the
submission of sections of NIS studies in the highest priority
group would result which might be as much as one and a half to two
months, The EIC Working Group on NIE 40 feels that the assignments
now proposed for the Army and Navy relating to such items as ship-
building; transportation, weapons productions, electronics, and
the like cannot be satisfactorily secured from any other source
and it is the opinion of this group that these assignments are an
integral and vital part of the study.

NIS PROGRAM
VaW
1. The augmentation of NIS production proposed by the NIS
Committee in its Special Report of 16 February 1951 was considered
by the IAC on 15 March 1951. Essentially, the IAC agreed that, for
the remainder of this fiscal year, the Intelligence Agencies will
devote their efforts to building up their capabilities to at least
an 8 NIS-a-year level. The IAC further agreed that at the end of
this fiscal year this matter would again be considered with a view
to determining the extent to which further augmentation should be
carried.
2. The NIS Committee examined the production situation at
its meeting of 29 May 1951. Current NIS production is roughly 50%
of commitments, or at the rate of 4 NIS a year. Recruitment of
personnel is slow in all of the Intelligence Agencies and it appears
that authorized strength will not be reached before the end of the
first quarter of fiscal year 1952. In consequence, the full pro-
duction of these staffs will not be reflected in the finished con-
tributions from the Intelligence Agencies until the middle of next
fiscal year. The NIS Committee anticipates, however, that the
production schedule for fiscal year 1952, which calls for the
equivalent of approximately 10 NIS, will generally be fulfilled.
In this respect, attention is invited to paragraph 6 of NIS Committee
Meeting No. 106, of 29 May 1951, which indicates the general pro-
duction situation of each agency. (Excerpt attached)
3. The NIS Committee, therefore, believes that further
reconsideration of the NIS Program by the IAC should be deferred
until the capabilities of the presently authorized staffs in the
several Intelligence Agencies can more accurately be appraised.
Furthermore, the NIS Committee is of the opinion that no material
advantage would be gained at this time from any current revision
of the JCS Priority List, since scheduled NIS production for the
next fiscal year will be proceeding on as broad a front as possible,
including all highest priority areas and a large number of high
priority areas.

State - Expects to have authorized personnel on board by October 1951
in which event State should be able to complete its allocations
in NIS areas by the end of FY 1952.
Army - The personnel situation is uneven, particularly in some of
the Technical Services where recruitment has been slow. In gen-
eral terms, however, Army should be able to complete its alloca-
tions for at least 8 NIS areas during FY 1952.
Navy - Does not expect any substantial increase in production until
authorized personnel have been recruited, which should be sometime
during the summer. Navy expects to produce at the rate of 4 NIS
during the first six months of FY 1952 but anticipates that its
allocations in 8 NIS areas will be met by the end of FY 1952.
Air Force - Expects that its authorized strength will be reached by
September 1951. In this event Air Force should complete its
allocations in approximately 10 NIS areas by the end of FY 1952.
Scientific Intelligence Committee:
The SIC has scheduled 4 Chapters VII (Scientific) for FY 1952
and may be able to produce one more before the end of the year.
Since there are relatively few countries which have a real scien-
tific potential, the slower production of Chapters VII will not
unfavorably affect the overall completion dates for the highest
priority areas.

3, My rec+ ndati ons as to the CIA position are as follows s
a, NU -40 is very definitely of sufficient importance to
justify so delay in the 2115 program. Dr. Lamer and Dr. Kent
of ON agree with this view.
b, This particular conflict is illustrative of a general
problem which the IAC might profitably discuss. The military
services, especially the An q and Navy, are not now staffed to
do an adequate job both on the N2IS and on support for the national

suffer until they build up their capabilities further.

Bacoloitation of Captured Sources (IAC-D-14)
1. This natter has been placed on the agenda at the request of
General lee who is desirous of having TAG approval of the DCI's reply
to the Secretary of Defense. It was thought vise at the saws time to
seals approv al by those agencies concerned of the agreement by which CIA
would represent the interests of State and the AEC in this matter. The
P31 has declined to be associated with the Department of State, the AEC
and CIA in this matter pretering to utilize its existing channels of
Information with the Department of Defense.
2. It is likely that the broad question of CIA representation in
Theaters of Operations will be precipitated collaterally with the dis-
cussion on this subject unless it is held to be out of order in the
present context. Coordination thus far achieved has been without
prejudice to the problem of overall CIA representation in Theaters of
Operations* The CIA position has been that it was not necessary to
solve this problem in order to more ahead with the exploitation of
captured xrces, and that the ultimate decision on CIA representation
in the Zone of the Interior and in Theaters of Operation should be made
at another time.
3. The ndum of the Secretary of Defense pertains to the overt
exploitation of captured sources for intelligence purposes and does not
enter the field of CIA covert operations. Uowever, to reserve CIA's
concern In the operational aspects, Paragraph 5 has been inserted in the
tm of reply as a precaution against curtailment of CIA operations
of this meter.
The following is attached TAB A for IAC approval:

1. On 6 December the Secretary of Defense requested the DCI
to coordinate with the other interested non-Defense agencies the
JCS recommendations for the exploitation of intelligence from
captured sources.
2. These recommendations have been thoroughly explored by
CIA in conjunction with the Department of State, the FBI, and the
AEC, and with the designated team of the JIG,
3. The JCS recommendations cover directives establishing in
the Zone of the Interior two agencies of the JCS for the exploi-
tation respectively of such documents (ASPIC) and personnel (ASPIC)
as may come under military jurisdiction in a Theater of Operations,
and a third agency (JMIA) to coordinate the exploitation of materiel.
Manuals detailing the operation of each of these agencies and pro-
viding for their functioning in Theaters of Operation are under
preparation by the Joint Staff in consultation with CIA.

MEMORANDUM FOR: SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
SUBJECT., Directives for the Exploitation of Intelligence
Derived from Captured Sources
1; The proposed intelligence projects referred to me with
your memorandum of 6 December 1950 have been taken up with the
Department of State, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the Federal
Bureau of Investigation; The Department of State, the AEC and
the CIA have a common interest in being assured that documents,
personnel and materiel will be readily accessible to these agencies
for foreign intelligence exploitation. The FBI feels that its
primary responsibility for internal security can best be met through
direct liaison with respect to these sources.
2: The Department of State; the AEC, and the CIA agree that
their common interest can most effectively and efficiently be
served by being represented through the CIA in both the Theater of
Operations and the Zone of the Interior. This representation is
considered necessary in order to insure, through participation of
the CIA within the Theater of Operations, that the selection and
exploitation of documents, personnel, and materiel are accomplished
as required by the intelligence needs of the non-military agencies
and that appropriate items are consigned through Joint Centers in
the Zone of the Interior to other suitable locations for non-
military exploitation,

3. For the purposes of exploitation by the non-military
agencies it may be necessary from time to time to associate
personnel from the Department of State or the AEC with the CIA,
representation at appropriate facilities in the Zone of the
Interior, and to detail personnel from these agencies to CIA for
representation in the Theater of Operations. It is moreover to
the interest of these agencies for the CTA to maintain the closest
possible liaison with MIA, in the allocation and consignment of
materiel for non-military exploitation. Consignment for non-
military exploitation would be without prejudice to the right of
the Armed Services to control. the final disposition of the
documents, personnel, and materiel selected. This fact would
not be permitted to interf are with complete non-military exploi-
tation of materiel.
1.' CIA representation for those purposes in Theaters of
Operations will require certain administrative and operational
su5port by the Department of Defense, particularly with regard to
subsistence, quarters, transportation and communications.

the benefit of the other agencies of the Government;

MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT AMONG THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY,
THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND THE ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION
1. As a matter of common concern and in order to avoid
unnecessary duplication, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) will
represent the Department of State and the Atomic Energy Commission
(AEC) in the exploitation for foreign intelligence purposes of docu-
ments, personnel, and material acquired in Theaters of Operations
by the military forces. In its representative capacity the CIA
will:
a. Arrange with the Defense Departments for CIA repre-
sentation, in association with Department of State and AEC
personnel as appropriate, at the Armed Services Document
Intelligence Center (ASDIC), the Armed Services Personnel
Interrogation Center (ASPIC), for CIA liaison with the Joint
Materiel Intelligence Agency (JMIA) and for CIA participation
in the Joint Intelligence Centers or analogous organizations
established or to be established in Theaters of Operations;
b. In so far as funds are available, provide budgetary
support for all such exploitation except that which is of
interest to only one agency, in which instance the CIA will
arrange for that agency to underwrite its particular project;

EXPLOITATION OF CAPTURED SOURCES
1. On 6 December 1950 the Secretary of Defense requested the
DCI to coordinate with the other interested non-Defense agencies
JCS recommendations for the establishment of joint agencies in the
Zone of the Interior for the exploitation of intelligence from
captured documents (ASDIC), personnel (ASPIC), and materiel (JMIA).
2. On 8 February 1951 the IAC decided to defer action on this
matter pending resolution of the related question of CIA representa-
tion in Theaters of Operation.
3. By memorandum of 15 February, the Deputy Director for
Intelligence, The Joint Staff, invited reconsideration of this
decision on the ground that CIA representation the Theaters of
Operation does not bear closely enough on the matter under discus-
sion to warrant delay and recommended that the IAC recommend forth-
with to the Secretary of Defense that he approve the directives
covering ASDIC, ASPIC, and JMIA,
4. Since the presentation of this subject to the IAC on
8 February, the proposed reply to the Secretary of Defense has been
modified in two respects:
a. To eliminate all reference to the Theaters of Operation,
except in a general statement (paragraph 4);
b. To provide for CIA to name an Assistant Director in
ASDIC and ASPIC and a special adviser in JMIA, in order to
ensure that the non-military aspects of these operations will
receive adequate attention.
5. The following is attached for IAC approval:
A memorandum from the DCI to the Secretary of Defense in
reply to that cited in Paragraph 1, embodying the principles
of non-military participation in the proposed agencies.

SUBJECT: Directives for the Exploitation of Intelligence
Derived from Captured Sources
1? The proposed intelligence projects referred to me with
your memorandum of 6 December 1950 have been taken up with the
Department of State, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. The Department of State, the AEC and the
CIA have a common interest in being assured that documents, personnel
and materiel will be readily accessible to these agencies for foreign
intelligence exploitation. The FBI, while associating itself with
the principles set forth in this memorandum, feels that its primary
responsibility for internal security can best be met through direct
liaison with respect to these sources.
2. The Department of State, the AEC, and the CIA agree that
their common interest can most effectively and efficiently be served
by being represented through the CIA, This representation is con-
sidered necessary in order to insure that appropriate items are made
available at suitable locations for non-military exploitation.
3.. For the purposes of exploitation by the non-military
agencies it may be necessary from time to time to associate personnel
from the Department of State or the AEC with the CIA representation
at appropriate facilities. It is moreover to the interest of these
agencies for the CIA to maintain the closest possible liaison with

JMIA in the allocation and consignment of materiel for non-military
exploitation. Consignment for non-military exploitation would be
without prejudice to the right of the Armed Services to control the
final disposition of the documents, personnel, and materiel selected.
This fact would not be permitted to interfere with complete non-
military exploitation.
4. The Department of State, the AEC, and the CIA believe
that in order to meet their responsibilities with respect to intel-
ligence of concern to the non-military agencies it will be necessary
for CIA to have representation in theaters of operation. Recogniz-
ing, however, that this broad question is now under discussion as
a separate matter, it is not proposed to hold up the current
directives pending its resolution.
5. Accordingly, CIA has the following changes to suggest in
the wording of the directives so as to take account of the non-
military needs;
a. ASDIC and ASPIC, paragraph 4, add to section b: "and
one appointed by CIA, to represent the interests of CIA, the
Department of State and the AEC."
b. JMIA, paragraph 3(c), change to read: "c. Insure
that close liaison is maintained between JMIA and the various
ZI intelligence exploitation agencies of the Armed Services
as well as CIA so that:"

c. JMIA, paragraph L+, add new section d: "The CIA, on
behalf of the State Department and the Atomic Energy Commission,
will name an adviser to the Director, JMIA, to ensure that the
non-military aspects of the operation will receive appropriate
attention."
6, This Agency welcomes the establishment of the proposed
centers for the exploitation of captured documents, personnel, and
materiel since these arrangements will very considerably assist it
in discharging its present functions in these fields for the benefit
of the other agencies of the Government.
7. The Intelligence Advisory Committee approved the principles
and specific changes set forth in this memorandum at its meeting on
5 March 1951. On the basis of this concurrence, it is recommended
that the Department of Defense proceed in accordance with these
principles with the establishment of the organizations proposed in
your memorandum.

PROPOSED MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
MM011ANDUM OF AGREE ENT AMONG THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY,
THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND TGIF., ATOMIC ENERGY CO : HISSION
1. As a matter of common concern and in order to avoid
unnecessary duplication, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) will
represent the Department of State and the Atomic Enerf-y Commission
(AEC) in the exploitation for foreign. intelligence purposes of docu-
ments, personnel, and material acquired in Theaters of Operation
by the military forces, The FBI will arrange for the exploitation
of such sources for internal security purposes. In its represen-
tative capacity the CIA will:
a. Arrange with the Defense Departments for CIA repre-
sentation, in association with Department of State and AEC
personnel as appropriate, at the Armed Services Document
Intelligence Center (ASPIC), the Armed Services Personnel
Interrogation Center (ASPIC), for CIA liaison with the Joint
Materiel Intelligence Agency (J TA) and for CIA participation
in the Joint Intelligence Co.nters or analogous organizations
established or to be established in Theaters of Operation;
b. Insofar as funds are available provide budgetary
support for all such exploitation except that which is of
interest to only one agency, in which instance the CIA will
arrange for that agency to underwrite its particular project;

c, Devise procedures which will ensure the. establishment
of agreed priorities for exploitation purposes;
d. Arrange for agency participation, where required, in
the exploitation processes in the Zone of the Interior and
within Theaters of Operation. In the latter case represen-
tatives of the Department of State or the AEC would be
detailed for these purposes to the CIA., presumably under the
overall theater command.
2. The foregoing arrangements will in no wise affect normal
liaison relationships between the Defense Departments and the State
Department, FBI, or the AEC.
