CIRCULATION 2. In view of the large military interest in this matter, we are suggesting to the Chairman, Chiefs of Staff that his Department undertake the collation of the views of those departments and agencies in the Government who would be interested in the agreement, and we ourselves shall be sending our views to them in due course. We would like to incorporate in our views any particular comments that you may care to make, not only on the agreement as a whole, but especially on the Security Annex and the two appendices thereto. We assume although we cannot yet be certain that it is not the State Department's intention that this annex would be declassified in time even though the main agreement would be. This was the case with the military agreement now in force; the two annexes to it remain classified. 3. The Security Annex and the two appendices go considerably further than the corresponding Security Annex of the present agreement. For ease of reference, we attach a copy. You may wish to consider whether it would be possible to suggest to the Americans that a more simple Security Annex along these lines could be made part of the new agreement. If this should not prove possible then we would be grateful for any ideas which you may have to make the draft less objectionable from our point of view.
