ONI E 'I LETTIB DEPART T F THE NA VY

SHINGTO , D. C. (Pr epar ed by Op- 921)

(This Ne sl etter is intended for dissemination t all persons c ncerned with inve s tigations , Suffici ent copi es are furnished o all w dist ri ution f ind i vidual copies t o each aval Intelli gence gent , )

This is su e comes t o you Hi th summer d rawin g to a close , vacati ns ending , and schoolrooms , i ncluding eur own Agents School , e h ing t e voices ha py (?) s t ud ents . Except fo r our favored b r ethern in So ther Calif mia an like climes, the f r ost will soon be on t he pumpkin , and &10 tire s and skid c ains will s tart to figure jri ou r road trip plans , This is a good ti e f r taki.n stock of past achievements and also of thin s yet l ef t undone,

In the rec ent past , a number of factors have contri uted ma erially t the welfare of agents as a gr up. The pay rai se , of c r se , is a shot in the am for everybody, run the r e troactive f eature give s an added boost , The r ecent directive authorizing further promotions furnishes addi tional i centi ve to competent , career-minded a gents . Passage of l egislation ich rovides statutory aff irmation of the authority for agent s to carry firearms i n the perf ormance of thei. r duties is another step which enhances the pre stige of the agent's job. The opinion from t he Civil Service Commission holding th NI agents core within the provisions of t he law permitting t wenty- year-hazard ous­duty-at-age-fifty r etirement may also b e counted as a s olid gain , All harx:i s may be assured that the Great White Father in Washington in the peroon of NI Headquarters will continue to foste r and f urther their inte r ests .

On the other side of the l edger, however , is the positiv r equirement for renewed effort on the part of eve ryone to increase his volume of work. Since the beginning of the y ear t here has been a gradual diminution of the bac klog, but it is still at an unacceptabl e l eve l and in the month of July even r eg:is­tered a slight rise , This problem i s of dir ec t conc ern to very person in the Organization with duties involving investi gations and every possible m asure must be taken to correct it. At the same time , it goe s without saying , there must be no compromise with the quality of our inve stigations. It b hoove s ach and every one of us, t he r e fore , to r esolve at this time to contribute even more than he has in the past in oroer that ou r pre sent high standards may be main­tained and surpassed. KEEP UP THE GOOD IDRK--BUT 00 MORE OF I T, AND 00 IT BETTERL

LEGAL BEAGIES

Messrs. Charle s R, 1rlilson, Francis x. Mc Kenna, and John w. Lynch, all of the Office of Naval Intelligence (Op-921D), were r ec ently admitted to practice before the United States Court of Military App eals.

In a recent investigation of an alleged compromise of Classifi matter (Category 5(a)) a Postal Inspector i Char ge advised that in such case s (where there appears to have b een a violatio of Post al Regulations) the O I investi­gation should be pursued only to the point , h r e it i s defini t l y e stablishcd that the Classifi ed matter has be n r ecei vcd at a local p st offic c . From that point on , it was explained , the Postal I nspectors should be iv the facts and they in turn wi 11 conduct their i nve s i gation to p ro e or di s prov the r sponsibility of any p rson or p r sons e loyed by the ost Offic e D part­ment, Inasnruch as that a.tency has juri oo iction o er viol tion of ostal la ti.ens, any qu stioning c-f witne s se s empl oyed by the Post Offic e De ar should be conducted by the Postal Ins ector s .
