The establi shment of this coordinating Bureau of
Strategic Research and Development is not designed nor
intended to supersede necessarily any existing Government
agency or other established group. This Bureau is estab-
lished for the purpose, however, of maintaining contact
and liaison with all Government, civic, and industrial
groups, whose activities in any way affect the strategic
position of the U.S.A. At the discretion of the President
of the U.S.A. and/or the Special Congressional Committee,
any item, factor, or problem would when deemed necessary
be referred to the Bureau for check, study, review, and
recommendation, thus insuring that strategic factors
would receive critical and specialized consideration and
emphasis.
To facilitate the presentation of recommendations
and suggestions from the Bureau, it would appear advis-
able to consider including in the specialized personnel
of the Bureau a small, highly-trained group of individu-
als thoroughly conversant with all legislative procedures,
thus enabling the Bureau to submit in draft or usable
legislative form to the President of the U. S.A. and/or
to the Special Congressional Committee pertinent material
for consideration as and when directed to do so. Such
a facility would insure prompt availability of legisla-
tive material of a strategic nature.
