There are some situations in which dissemination is made at the topes cape sees Bureau instead of in the field. In the majority of instances, & information received by the FBI should properly be furnished ed immediately to some other egency within the executive branch of os the Government so that the responsibilities of the other agency ut might be fulfilled properly. Care must be taken, however, not ms to disseminate information to any, field branch of ‘another “ee Government’ agency where such a procedure is deemed inadvisable oe _eF because of the inadequacy of security measures in that branch. ~" ae . In these instances the data should be brought to the immediate ee attention of the Bureau for dissemination at the SOG. An aE example of the latter is, cf course, the Atomic Energy Commission, 3s which receives. reports only through the Bureau, as noted in & section 87D 7c (3) of this mamal. Information relating to foreign travel plans of security subjects is disseminated ‘to interested agencies, indluding the State Department, only at the SOG, as set out in 87D 6b (4). Dissemination is also “made at the SOG to the State Department, unless “it appears ‘wndesirable, in those cases in which subjects have been “indicted for violations grounded on subversive activities, - Dissemination in these cases is made to preclude these subjects “ - from utilizing the fact they obtained a passport to refute . . allegations of subversive connections. The State Department, ° therefore, will be in possession of data concerning a defendant . should he attempt to utilize this tactic in such an action. b.
