Memorandum: I desire that the following policies and procedures be placed immediately into effect. One, as a matter of general policy, memoranda should be prepared on blue paper, unless the subject matter is of such a nature as to be of permanent value in the Bureau's files. The Director, if he believes that the contents of a memorandum should go the files, should indicate to the stenographer or typist that it be prepared on white. In the event it has been prepared on white, then, after it has been reviewed by a unit chief, assistant director, or assistant to the director, and those officials take a contrary view, they should draw a pencil line through the memorandum, after which it should be handled exactly as if it had been prepared on blue. I have no objection to memoranda with a pencil line across the first page being forwarded to me, and I intend to exercise likewise the prerogative of drawing a pencil line through memoranda which I feel have no permanent value to the Bureau's files.
