U.S. and U.K. representatives. At the 2nd Meeting 9 pril 

1954) it was reported that U.K. authorities had'indicated 

informally general approval of an early conference on the 

subject; thereupon, USCIB agreed that a Working Committee under 

the cognizance of the Director, NSA, should be convened to 

prepare recommendations for an agenda and a conference delegation. The Working Committee, which was chaired by Mr. W. F. 

Friedman, submitted recommendations which were forwarded to 

USCIB members for consideration at this meeting. The Working 

Committee Report was distributed. on 27 April 1954 as USC!B 

29.18/1. It is understood that position papers on conference 

items are in preparation. The Executive Secretary has forwarded a formal proposal to LSIB that a U.S.-U.K. conference 

be held in London in July. To date no reply has been received • 

Principles for Use in Jamming and Intercept Operations - USCIB 

first considered this subject at its 94th Meeting (1.3 November 

195.3). At that time it was agreed that the Intelligence 

Committee should study the problem raised in USCIB 20./6 and 

submit its recommendations to USCIB through USCIBEC. A detailed 

account of action since initial submission of the Intelligence 

Conunittee recommendations is contained in USCIB 20./13. The 

basic issue at this point is whether the Board action in this 

matter should be published as a USCIB directive, or issued in 

the .form.of a policy memorandum ~or the Director, NSA.
