DAVIDSON (te a . Holmes 2u-——+ if ‘ ° t We 3 Ahh = J SUBIEC | REQUEST FOR EXECUTION OF FORM SHOWING PERSONAL HISTORY INFORMATION REGARDING THE DIRECTOR, MR. TOLSON, MR. MOHR AND MR. BELMONT. My memorandum of 7-26-65 noted that on the morning of that day, Jack Adler, First Assistant in the Administrative Division in the Department, called Inspector E. W. , Walsh of your office stating that John Macy, advisor to the President on personnel matter: ! had requested execution of forms showing persona]-his y-typ infor mation and ha etm | officials in the Department including the Director;° We Seotson Me atohs Q ‘ | as well as information on each of their positions. Thefirm is captiohed "Fact Sheéf on Non-Presidential-Appointive Policy and Supporting Positions." According to the Depart- ment, the request was made in a letter from Macy to the Attorney General of 7-22-65 in which Macy stated the President had asked him to make a study on the staffing structure ond policy in the Executive Branch including information on the background and qualifica- tions of the incumbents. According to the Department, this appears to tie in with the President's general desire to insure top positions are staffed with the best available talent | which has been receiving some publicity. It was approved that we gather information “ecessary to execute the forms and that the executed forms be sent through for approval : | before dispatch to the Department. Enclosed is a proposed letter to Adler in the Department transmitting forms in . .siplicate, as requested, applicable to the Director, Mr. Tolson, Mr. Mohr and Mr. Belmont. Part I of the form shows position information and part I shows incumbent /Aaformation (personal history type). EH is noted that item 10 of part I calls for a brief | description of the duties of each position and also calls for experience and training requir« i: is believed desirable to make the point here that for years the FBI has had a comprehen sive, competitive, long-range executive development program to provide the FBI with xeculives, its primary theme being that every executive must work his way up through the ranks of the FBI and that this policy has been found to be both logical and necessary. Accordingly, the reports concerning positions occupied by Mr. Tolson, Mr. Mohr and Mr. Belmont contain information on this point. EK is not believed appropriate to include such information in the f rm. pertaining to the Director’s Position since the Director is the incumbent.
