REPORT 10 THE PRESIDENT BY THE SECURITY RESOURCES PANEL OF THE
ODM SCIENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
(NSC ActionNo. 191%; NSC 5724; sc 5724/1; NSC Actions Nos.
1841 and 1842)
General Cutler, in his briefing on this item, pointed out

that the Department of Defense was to present a report on certain
military recommendations included in the so-called "Gaither Report”
for which there had not been sufficient time for discussion before

the Council at its January 6 meeting.

The first item to be reported on was whether to produce
additional first-generation ICBMs beyond the 130 currently pro-

grammed to be operational prior to the end of 1963; whether to

build additional launching sites required for an operational capability of such additional ICEMs; and whether to harden such additional launching sites.
The second item, continued General Cutler, was whether
to order now production of more than three POLARIS submarine missiles systems, and whether possibly further to accelerate POLARIS
production.

The third matter was whether to utilize modified exist- .

ing anti-aircraft missiles (TALOS) as interim defense against ICBM

attack at SAC bases, pending the development of an initial operational capability of the more effective NIKE-ZEUS anti-missile
missiles.

The fourth matter was whether to harden SAC bases by providing blast shelters for a large part of SAC planes, weapons, personnel, and supplies.
The report on the first three of the aforementioned matters was presented by Mr. William Holaday, Director of Guided Mis-

siles, Department of Defense. (A copy of Mr. Holaday's report on
these three items is included in the minutes of the meeting.)
in the course of his report, Mr. Holaday made use of charts which
indicated force objectives and estimated fund requirements.
