                      1. Reference your request for a statement on subject officer    o
                the purpose of including such statement in his security file, the
                following is offered.

                     2.  Conein has been known by the writer for a considerable period
                 of time, for the past two years on a day-to-day basis, since he has
                 been directly under the supervision of the writer. It is the frank
                 opinion of the writer that Conein has definitely settled down and is
                 most anxious for a continued career with this organization. His desire
                 to continue his career is endorsed by me.

                      3.  It is pointed out, however, that Conein does require more day-
                 to-day supervision at the moment than perhaps some other person than
                 Eyself would give him. However, due to this day-to-day supervision, it
                 is felt that far more results have been obtained from the services of
                 Conein.
     L
                      4   Quite frankly, Conein had quite a reputation prior to his'
                 assignment with the German Mission, and in many quarters because of his
                 wartime activities, he was played up to as a hero and a free-wheel
                 operator.  The continued back slapping and praise on the part of many
                 of our staff members did not help the situation. His flair fo
                 exaggeration can be directly attributed to this back sa
                 p7'I'ST~sthings I have personally made clear to Conein on two
                 occasions during the past year, and I must- say that he certainly has
                 profited by the discussions he has had with me on this part of his
                 character.
