Th© attached submission fro® the J*I*G* is in
large measure self explanatory. Th© J.t*C. is now convinced
that It is essential to run a Joint Indications Seen into
which all Directorates and Departments represented on the
J*I.C* will submit on a timely basis items which may lead
to the opinion that war was imminent or in preparation.
An attempt has been made to define what le meant by
indications intelligence and this Department, as well
as other Directorates, will have to contribute in some
measure. We have already instituted a somewhat unworkable
system for forwarding Information from this.Department to
the Joint Indications Boon but this will need seme revision
and, I believe, an. extra officer*
I have already submitted
a memorandum to Mr* Macdonnell on this point*
,'*
the principal reasons for requiring a
Joint Indications Boom will be in support of th® procedure
which has been agreed to in Cabinet Defence Committee for
exchanging information with th© Americans which might lead
to the declaration of an Alert with respect to the North
American defence system* You ere already aware of the
background and details of these negotiations with the
United States*
$t
The C airman, J.I.C*, has been invited to be
present at this meeting and will be available for any
cross questioning which may be necessary on the detailed
operation of the'scheme*
