        Rescission: Annex B of Chapter III, CSHB 70-1-1, 27 October 1966

        1. INTRODUCTION

            The 201 system provides a method for identifying a person of specific in-
        terest to the Operations Directorate and for controlling and filing all pertinent
        information about that person. The system also provides a means .for identifying
        subjects of 201 files from various categories of information about them and for  .
        producing lisits of 201 personalities. according to those categories..Only a rela  '
        lively small number of personalities indexed are of sufficient interest to justify  -
        opening a 201 dossier. These are normally subjects of` extensive reporting and
        CI investigation, prospective agents and source 'i<mb of groups and organi-
        zations of continuing target interest, or  al Jects on whom a volume of corre-
        spondence has accumulated.

        individual in the system to serve as identifying file number for reporting on that
        individual.

        831) and all biographic reporting on and references to the individual, i.e., per-
        sonal history, current status, and prospects.:

            c. The Master 201 Record: a machine record generated by the opening of
        a 201 file. This record .produces the masteri20 referenc-e for the  ain'Index and
        stores the pertinent.information which may later be retrieved' for special istiryg.
