Mr. BROGER. Slide 1: Based on the testimony that has already been given, Mr. Chairman, here is a chart, and there will be several to follow, briefly outlining the responsibilities of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower. He has other responsibilities, but the one you are interested in primarily falls under the Deputy for Education and Manpower Resources.

Senator STENNIS. Just a moment. I believe it would be easier for us to move than it would be for you to move the chart. Now, my eyes are not weak but my glasses are.

[Laughter.]

Mr. BROGER. If you would prefer, Mr. Chairman, that will be fine. I will try to read from the chart anything that might be essential. Senator STENNIS. I will just move around here.

Mr. BROGER. We are sorry that we are not able to provide better facilities.

Under Mr. Katzenbach, there are three directorates. The primary one I believe of interest here is my Directorate for Armed Forces Information and Education. I have two field agencies, one in Los Angeles and one at New York. The one at Los Angeles handles radio and television. The one at New York: radio, television, and press. (Slide 3.)

MISSION

"...shall include the production

of materials in such areas as

DEMOCRACY vs COMMUNISM

WORLD AFFAIRS

FORCES for FREEDOM

CITIZENSHIP

ORIENTATION FOR OVERSEAS DUTY

CODE of CONDUCT

Now, for a brief outline of what you already know, the six major themes that we cover in this Directorate are: Democracy versus Communism, World Affairs, Forces for Freedom, Citizenship, Orientation for Oversea Duty, and Code of Conduct.

My office is organized roughly like this: The officers in charge at Los Angeles and New York report directly to me. There are certain support divisions and the three operating divisions for radio-television, motion pictures, and publications. We will take each of these divisions separately and give you just a brief runthrough of the type of activities which they perform.

First, in the Publications Division, here are samples of the types of materials that we put out. For instance, "The Fighting Man's Code" is the type that the staff prepares in our own office here. "Americans Abroad, Spokesmen for the United States" is the type that we purchase. I would like to come back to some of these just a little later and provide some information I think would be interesting.

From private reprints, such as Newsweek or U.S. News & World Report, or other magazines, sometimes there are outstanding public themes which are provided to us, sometimes free of charge, which we will distribute to the forces.

Pocket guides such as this one on Japan [indicating] are contracted by us to an individual writer and then reproduced in the Government Printing Office and distributed. Or perhaps in other Government agencies such as State Department or ISIA there are pamphlets put out which we will pick up and reproduce in quantity and distribute to the services. This is just a sample of the six types

Now we will break those down into several areas. "For commanders" is, for instance, in a sense our hot-line publication. This is the kind of publication that will almost be hand carried through clearance procedures and distributed in 50,000 copies through the services, to the top commands. These will cover such subjects as the Congo, Vietnam, Disarmament and Nuclear Tests, the Berlin Crisis, China and the United Nations, Alliance for Progress, Soviet Communist Party Congress, Brazil, the European Common Market, Analysis of the Soviet Communist Party Congress, the Threat to Southeast Asia, Tanganyika, the Food for Peace Program, Kuwait, Sino-Soviet Dispute in Perspective.

These are issued every 2 weeks. As you know, the commander has access to many sources of information from both private as well as official U.S. sources: radio, newspapers, and so forth.

We felt that in many cases the commander would like to have one wrap-up version of the best information that we can provide him on a particular subject. This publication has been produced since last July for the commander.
