concurred. that. legal..lT we ahou.ld operate under PL 733 - and that, since an interdepartmental ZXecutive Order was in the making - we would be juat.itied to set up procedures s1m1111r to ABC's pending issuance __ ot the J:a:ecutive Order. It waa 

augpsted that n tollow the principles ccmtained 1n the draft d11cusion 

(mrewith with l1f1' camunt, draft received b;r the Securit.7 Control Dirision on 

22 April (lnclosure lo. l)J which ia now before the Rational Securit.7 Council. 

2. I conferred with the Secreta17 ot the Anv'• office (Hr. Jobn Connell) 

an 21 April 52. The ~st of what WU discussed there is at\acbed (Inclosure 

No. 2). In Camell'• opinion PL 73.3 will not auttice as our authorit7. 

3. Before recmgnending our pending procedure, I wish to di•cuss all of the 

matters forwarded herewith with the Secretal"J' of Detenae•a Office again, particularq 

with respect to our cCIDllll81'lts on the ICIS proponl. In the meantime, I suggest tbi•

10. Page 18 - A statute is needed. There is no objection to tbe application 

ot procedural safeguards. 

ll. Page 19 - Concur with l; as limited heretofore, concur with Jt and i.• 

12. Paga 21 - Do not believe that "appeal" in th19 sense should be granted 

in removal actions or c17Ptologic actiYitiea. Heads ot Agenc7 

have great rasponsibilit7 securit7-wise; it there is a doubt in 

their minds regarding a securit7 risk, that doubt should be 

upheld. Appeal could be for purpose of establishing right to 

other government empl07 in less sensitive operation. 

13. Page 23 - Para. ! - But should be afforded the opportunit7 to resign. 

14. Page 23 - Para. 1 - Not pract1,cal unless investigative procedures an 

speeded up withou.t lass ot thoroughness. If AFSA were limited 

by this proviso, it would go out of business - or, at least, 

be unable to expand its operation as required by current 

directives. 

Director, AP'SA, should be authori~ed to grant interi.~ 

clearances to highest level - on a calculated risk. Currently, 

a faTorable RAC plus a favorable interview b7 means ot the po~graph is considered a basis for interim-top secret clearance. 

In 671 cases, onl.yl.,2 luch interims were not supported by the
