lating agency. It must provide many of the
facts upon which policy is built. Its'secret
operations can influence policy; and it re-
quires, as do all executive agencies, the close
supervision of Congress.
For a variety of reasons the CIA has not
had that supervision in the past. The sys-
teirn of division of powers upon which our
Constitution was founded must not be elim-
inated, or minimized, in the name of secrecy.
And secrecy does not preclude effective con-
gressional control.
Today the CIA is monitored by four sub-
committees of the Armed Services and Ap-
propriation Committee of House and Senate.
Cuba alone would appear to offer ample evi-
dence that these divided committees do not
exercise adequate supervision. What is clear-
ly needed, as we have said many times, is es-
tablishment of a Joint Congressional Com-
mittee on Intelligence, a "watchdog" com-
mittee similar to the one on atomic energy.
Such a committee, continuously function-
ing, thoroughly informed, scrupulously dis-
creet, could be the CIA's "conscience," Its
legislative monitor.
If war is too important in the atomic age
to be left to the generals, secret intelligence
is certainly too important to be left entire-
ly to its own devices.
Russians Eager To Buy Complete
Factories
EXTENSION OF REMARKS
OF
HON. ALEXANDER WILEY
OF WISCONSIN
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
Wednesday, February 7, 1962
Realistically, the sale of a nail and
bolt, or a factory, by the West, to Com-
munist-dominated nations could-and
probably would-be utilized to construct
"coffins" designed for "burial" of the
West.
Recently, the Milwaukee Journal pub-
lished an article from the North Ameri-
can Newspaper Alliance entitled "Russ
Eager To Buy Complete Factories."
Reflecting this effort of the Commu-
nists to benefit from technological prog-
ress by the West, I ask unanimous con-
sent to have the article printed in the
Appendix of the RECORD.
There being no objection, the article
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:

Proposals by the Federal Government
Concerning Electric Power Production
Across the Country Will Have Imme-
diate and: Long-Range Effects on Our
Nation's Fuel Industries
EXTENSION OF RENLARKS
OF
HON. JAMES E. VAN ZANDT
OF PENNSYLVANIA
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Wednesday, February 7, 1962
Mr. VAN ZANDT. Mr. Speaker, the
proposed program of the Federal Power
Commission, outlined in the President's
1963 budget message, is attracting na-
tionwide attention because it envisions
the creation: of a nationwide coordinated
and interconnected electric power sys-
tem rather than on a local area basis.
The following interesting article on the
FPC program appeared in the February
1, 1962, issue of the United Mine Work-
ers Journal::
UNITED STATES MOVES To STEP UP POWER
PROGRAM
Two potentially controversial proposals
by the Federal Government concerning elec-
tric power production across the Nation that
will have immediate and long-range effects
on the coal and other fuel industries are
now under consideration.
A special Interior Department task force
has recommended that Congress vote money
next year to. create an extra-Ugh-voltage,
direct-current Interconnection between the
power systems of the Pacific No:'thwest and
California. The 1,000-mile electric power
intertie would connect the Los Angeles area
with Columbia River power dams.
The coal industry's biggest lustomer is
the electric power industry and E. major por-
tion (54 percent) of the electric power in
the Nation is. produced by readily available,
low-cost bituminous coal.
Of greater importance on a long-term
basis is the proposal for a natonal power
survey looking toward creation of a nation-
wide, coordinated and Interconnected elec-
tric power system. This proposal was an-
nounced by Federal Power Commission
Chairman Joseph C. Swidler.
The FPC program, proposed in President
Kennedy's 1963 budget message to the Con-
gres.., outlines how the Nation's 3,600 elec-
tric power systems can key their future ex-
pansion plans to a national scale rather than
on a local area basis. The survey will be
completed in the summer of 1963, published
and made available to the Congress, the
entire electric power industry and the gen-
eral public.
In line with its traditional. position on
such matters, the coal industry has called
for an investor-owned power grid in keep-
ing with the best tradition of the free
enterprise system. The industry will con-
tinue to oppose unnecessary extension of
federally subsidized power projects whenever
needad additional power can be provided by
privately owned electric companies.
FPC Chairman Swidler has invited the coal
Industry and other fuels industries to sub-
mit their views on the nationwide power
grid to the FPC.
The power survey will be made by the
FPC staff and consultants from industry if
Congress appropriates the $380,000 requested
for it in the President's budget.
Aim of the program would be to have
available ample supplies of low-cost elec-
tricity throughout the Nation by 1980. By
that time the power industry will be three
or four times its present size and will use
energy equivalent to 900 million tons of coal
annually. If coal continues in its present
place as the Nation's No. 1 electric power
producer (54 percent) this would mean that
the power industry by 1980 will be consum-
ing between 450 and 500 million tons of coal
annually. At the present time gas (21 per-
cent), water (19 percent), and oil (8 per-
cent). altogether do not produce as much
electric power as coal. Atomic power pro-
duction (less than three-tenths of 1 per-
cent), of course, is still In the high-cost
experimental stage and is expected to stay
there for many years to come.
Swidler stated recently to coal Industry
reprecentatives: "Anyone who looks at pro-
jections of energy use must realize that coal
is on the verge of burgeoning on a period
of growth * ` `. Home-heating electricity
will grow. Whatever you can do to make
low-cost energy available is to your interest.
What you may not get today (in increased
business) you will inherit tomorrow. The
tonnages of coal required for power produc-
tion in the 1980's will make you fellows
hustle to get coal out of the ground."
In connection with the proposed intertie
between the Pacific Northwest and Califor-
nia, Secretary of the Interior Stewart L.
Udall said the Nation's depressed coal min-
ing areas stand to benefit most from the
propcsal. Udall said the direct-current lines
offer dramatic possibilities for long-distance
transmission of power which could help mar-
ket electricity produced at coalfields and
transmitted over extra-high- voltage power
lines to the cities.
A shorter distance high-voltage transmis-
sion line is already being planned in the
East by the Virginia Electric Power Co.
VEPCO has announced it will construct a
350-mile high-voltage line to link a new
coal-burning generating plant in Grant
County, W. Va., with Richmond and north-
ern Virginia at a cost of $50 million. VEP-
CO expects its system to be the first in this
hemisphere to carry 500,000 volts of elec-
tricity. At present the usual. power over
longer distances is 230,000 volts..
WHY EXTRA-HI(.H-VOLTAGE DC POWERLINES?
Extra-high-voltage, direct-current electric
power transmission lines, such as the 1,000-
mile electric power intertie-proposed by the
Federil Government between the Pacific
:Northwest and California, do not exist in
the United States at the present time. One
direct-current line is in service in Sweden;
one is being completed under the English
Channel, and two other direct-current lines
are under construction in New Zealand and
Russia.
Direct-current transmission eliminates the
technical limitations imposed by distance
and magnitude of power now being carried
by proven alternating-current lines. Extra-
high-voltage generally means in excess of
230,000 volts. There are about 2,000 miles
of 345,000-volt alternating-current circuits
now in use in the United States.
It is not economical to transport electricity
over long distances on low-voltage circuits
because the power is lost due to conductor
resistance and other characteristics common
to the movement of electricity. In the case
of steam-generated electricity (using coal as
the fuel) it usually has been more economi-
cal to transport the fuel to the generating
plant before converting it Into electricity.
The higher the voltage of the transmission
line the less loss there is of the power trans-
mitted. And high-voltage systems designed
for direct current show an even higher effi-
ciency than those carrying alternating cur-
rent.
Extra-high-voltage transmission systems
are economically feasible only when the ca-
pacity can be used for transmitting large
blocks of power long distances from remote
plants or for interconnection of large sys-
tems where there must be a means of moving
large quantities of power back and forth as
the need arises. Direct current is especially
suitable for high-voltage, long-distance

HON. JACOB K. JAVITS
OF NEW YORK
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
Wednesday, February 7,1962
Mr. JAVITS. Mr. President, last week,
on the occasion of the confirmation of
the nomination of John A. McCone as
Director of the Central Intelligence
Aency, I noted that the manner In which
to deal with dangers of that office which
may exist is to establish a Joint Com-
mittee on Foreign Information and In-
telligence. Senate Joint Resolution 77,
which would do this, was introduced, as
I noted, by Senator MCCARTHY last ses-
sion and I, along with some 20 other Sen-
ators, am a cosponsor of the measure.
An editorial in today's New York Times
supports this bill on the same basic ra-
tionale and I ask unanimous consent that
it be printed in the Appendix to the
R',ECORD.
There being no objection, the editorial
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows: '

The Central Intelligence Agency, under its
new Director, John A. McCone, is opening

perience in the intelligence community, Mr.

day, told the world that this is im-
possible.
The New York Daily News, in its edi-
torial of February 6, in its usual, hard-
hitting language, comments on the
misunderstanding of communism by this
administration. The editorial follows:
SUSLOV LAYS IT ON THE LINE
Mikhail A. Suslov, a big banana in the
Kremlin mob, has shot, a valuable dash of
cold water into the current chatter about
peaceful coexistence between communism
and capitalism.
A shooting war should be avoided, Suslov
told a gathering of Russian educators last
Tuesday in a speech made public Sunday.
But he added that an ideological struggle
between the two systems is unavoidable,
and must go on until the last remnants of
capitalism are destroyed.
Thus, a lelading Communist affirms again,
in unmistakable language, the longstanding
Red ambition to enslave the entire human
race.
Let's hope the Suslov speech was duly
noted In all of the world's non-Communist
capitals, particularly Washington. The
Commies are playing for keeps; you cannot
do business with them, any more than you
could with Adolf Hitler; and non-Commu-
nist statesmen who fail to recognize and act
on these truths are gambling with the lives
and liberties of their own nations and
peoples.

Mrs. KELLY. Mr. Speaker, since
1953 I have during eaei~, Congress intro-
duced a resolution to create a Joint
Congressional Colnmitt? 2 un Intelligence
Matters. All of the arhuments which I
have advanced in the at retain their
validity.
In this morning's N: w York Times
there was printed an editorial entitled
"Congress and CIA," which read as
follows:
CONG4E!~S AND CIA
The Central Intelligence Agency, under its
new Director, John A. MeL ,l e, is opening a
fresh chapter. Though wit ,out prior experi-
ence in the intelligence n immunity, Mr.
McCone is an able admix: sirator. He has
already made changes Ix- personnel and
methods which are hopeful. and others are
impending.
But the Central Intelligerrf Agency cannot
live by itself. It is not a p-licy-formulating
agency. It must provide x;iany of the facts
upon which policy Is built. IFs secret opera-
tions can influence policy, and it requires,
as do all executive agencies the close super-
vision of Congress.
For a variety of reasons be CIA has not

of division of powers upon which our Con-
stitution was founded mu i, not be elimi-

And secrecy does not prech?ue effective con-
gressional control.
Today the CIA is n,onito cut by four sub-
committees of the Armed a vices and Ap-
propriation Committee of louse and Sen-
ate. Cuba alone would appear to offer ample
evidence that these divides ,-ommittees do
not exercise adequate super t-+ :ion. What is
clearly needed, as we have :?.id many times,
is establishment of a Joir U Congressional
Committee on Intelligence L "watchdog"
committee similar to the see on atomic
energy. Such a committc i, continuously
functioning, thoroughly in+,xmed, scrupu-

If war is too important in the atomic age
to be left to the generals, as r-t intelligence
is certainly too important ti be. left entirely
to-its own devices.
Mr. Speaker, over the y. ars the Times
has supported this legisla i1cn and I am,
of course, delighted that ti e continue to
do so. Early last year aftc P similar edi-
torial appeared, I had occasion to write
the following letter to th;: rimes:
Mr. CHARLES MERZ,

DEAR MR. MERZ: I read wi!:li interest the

"What I wish to stress, then, Is that in our
preoccupation these past years with the very
real threat from the left-from commu-
nism-we have been blind to the growing
danger from the right. We all agree we must
be vigilant against communism. But it is
not the only place from which danger comes.
Right-wingers who carry the word "America"
so heavily upon their tongues are just as
likely to subvert the true spirit of America
as are the Communists who extol Russia.
"First, the rightists are frustrated folk
who appeal to other frustrated folk. They
don't like the world we live in * * * the world
that has no easy solutions, that demands
so much with so little hope of immediate
resolution, that saps so much of our patience
and piece of mind. From international ten-
sion and fear to the tremendous transforma-
tions going on at home in such things as
the long delayed emancipation of the Negro,
America is being pushed and pulled in all
directions, not all of them comfortable. The
rightists are those who want to stop the
clock or to turn its hands back to an earlier,
easier time when things seemed to be less
confusing and more subject to man's control.
"Second, the rightists have little ability
to approach the problems of the world with
much understanding of Its complexities.
For them life seems to be black or white. As
Senator THOMAS DODD said when he addressed
a huge rally in the Hollywood Bowl, 'The
only alternative to total defeat in the strug-
gle with communism is total victory'. This
'either, or' approach leaves out all rational
middle courses of action.
"Third, they have a demon phobia. In
this case the demon is communism and the
demon is found nearly everywhere. It is
practically omnipotent as well as omni-
present if you believe what they say. It has
permeated the faculties of our colleges and
it is in the editorial offices of our important
newspapers. It has infiltrated the leadership
of the labor unions and has considerable
control over the National Council of
Churches. Indeed this sermon to them
would undoubtedly be Communist inspired.
If you're not for them you're against them.
"T. Coleman Andrews, one of the most
vehement of the rightists, called the New
York Times 'the uptown Daily Worker.' The
Justices of the Supreme Court have been
called Communist by other rightists for their
decision on segregation. Robert Welch,
leader of the John Birch Society, has stated
that 'Dwight Eisenhower is a dedicated, con-
scious agent of the Communist conspiracy.'
He has also said that 'Communist influences
are now in almost complete control of our
Federal Government.' These people have
a demon phobia that borders on mental
illness.
"And fourth, the rightists distrust dem-
ocracy. As Alan Barth puts it, 'The rightists
never regard themselves as gullible or sus-
pectible to Communist subversion; but they
appear to be convinced that all their coun-
trymen are outright simpletons ripe for a
shift of loyalty at an

Through this means, the United States
may take an offense against steady Commu-
nist pressure of economic and political sub-
version. The European Common Market
plan is drawing Europe together in a politi-
cal as well as economic unit. It i.s a com-
munion of defense. The United States,
working with Europe, could serve as a rally-
ing base for the Western World.
A freedom to negotiate with the Common
Market means a sharp break with some of
the past traditions and thinking. The
European market has six countries, 160 mil-
lion consumers, Britain will swell the num-
ber to 220 million. Similar in almost every
respect is the Latin America Free Trade As-
sociation. This makes three common mar-
kets, European, LAFTA, and Communist.
The U.S. choice is to join one of tae three-
or form its own. A step requiring enlarged
Presidential freedom to act.
The effect on farmers will vary accord-
ing to the product, Landon bald. For years,
the emphasis has been on quanta?y produc-
tion instead of quality. Profitable wheat
business in Kansas depends on a :market for
the grain. There Is as muchdi:ference In
wheat as there is in the gravity of oil. High
protein hard wheat is needed. Kansas can
raise It-the common markets need it. High
quality red meat, another Kansas product,
is needed throughout the world, Landon said.
The Kansas oil producer has excess capacity.
Russians, too, can compete in these same
basic fields.
Barriers to trade and finance must be
removed for the long-term benefit. The Kan-
sas farmer, the eastern manufacturer and,
in fact, every wage earner and Investor in
the Nation, must have a unity for assurance
of peace.
Cooperative trade agreements pave the
way, Landon believes.

Mr. BOW. Mr. Speaker, in all of the

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD- APPENDIX A963
entitled "Reappraising the CIA," In it, the
writer clearly creates the Impression that my
distinguished colleague, Senator MANSFIELD,
was the sponsor and original author of the
resolution which would establish a Joint
Congressional Committee on Intelligence
Matters. Humbly I submit the true historical
background on this resolution.
Late in 1950, while serving on the commit-
tee which was responsible for the Mutual
Defense Assistance Control Act of 1951 (Bat-
tle Act), I came to realize the tremendous
lack of knowledge, on the part of the Con-
gress, of intelligence matters. After 2 years
of periodic consultations with Members of
the House of Representatives and legal coun-
sel, I introduced House Concurrent Resolu-
tion 168 in the 83d Congress (July 23, 1953).
This resolution provided for the establish-
ment of a Joint Congressional Committee on
Intelligence Matters. While I endeavored
to convince many other Members of the
House to cosponsor my resolution, my suc-
cess was limited to my colleague, Mr.
ZABLOCKI (H. Con. Res. 169, 83d Cong.) and
Mr. JUDD (H. Con. Res. 170, 83d Cong.).
In 1955, Senator MANSFIELD introduced a
similar resolution in the other body (S. Con.
Res. 2, 84th Cong.). During the 2d session of
the 84th CoIgress, this resolution was re-
ported in the Senate but did not pass be-
cause of certain. weaknesses in that version
of my resolution.
I endeavored, along with Mr. ZABLOCKI, to
have this resolution reported. from the House
Rules Committee in the 84th, 85th, 86th and
87th Congresses. In March of this year, I
appeared before the Committee on Rules and
gave testimony in support of my resolution.
Members of the House Committee on Armed
Services appeared in opposition and testified
that a Subcommittee of the Committee on
Armed Services was and had been reviewing
CIA activities. The committee did not re-
port my resolution but, recognizing the
importance of the matter, did not table the
resolution. The matter is still before the
committee and considerable sentiment for
,favorable, action has developed. A. report of
the proceedings before the Committee on
Rules by C. P. Trussell appeared in the New
York Times on March 5, 1961, at page 56.
Although I have never been a person who
seeks excessive publicity, I believe that credit
should be given where credit is due. I en-
close herewith copies of House Concurrent
Resolution 168, 83d Congress; a letter which
I addressed to the Speaker of the House on
January 20, 1954; Mr. Trussell's article of
March 5, 1961; and a copy of Senate Con-
current Resolution 2, 84th Congress.
Sincerely yours,
Honesty Is Still Our Best Policy
EXTENSION OF REMARKS
OF
HON. VICTOR L. ANFUSO
OF NEW YORK
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, February 1, 1962
Mr. ANFUSO. Mr. Speaker, last Sun-
day, while attending mass at my com-
munity church in Brooklyn, St. Joseph
won many friends for us in Mexico. His
name is Mr. Patty Mangiaracina, whom
I have known for many years and who
has demonstrated honesty all his life.
Briefly, the story is as follows:
Several months ago, the wife of a high
Mexican official, the Honorable Hugo B.
Margain. Under Secretary of Industry
and Commerce, lost a bag in New York
during a visit there. She was not sure
whether she had lost it at the hotel, at
Pennsylvania Station. or in a taxi. She
wrote to the hotel management and to
station officials, but the bag had not been
found. In the meantime, Mr. Mangiara-
cina had found the bag and turned it
over to the New York Police Department.
Early in January. Mrs. Margain in
Mexico received a letter from the New
York Police Department stating that a
bag had been turned in which could be
hers and would she identify it. The bag
was identified and subsequently returned
to Mrs. Margain in Mexico.
Last week Mr. Mangiaracina received
a letter of thanks from the Mexican Un-
der Secretary of Industry and Commerce
in which he expresses "deepest grati-
tude for your wonderful sense of hon-
esty" and also his appreciation for "all
the trouble you and the police depart-
ment took in order to recover the bag."
Mr. Margain forwarded through the New
York office of the Banco National de
Mexico a Mexican gold coin as a souvenir
from his wife to Mrs. Mangiaracina.
Mr. Speaker, courtesies and acts of
this kind are very often more meaning-
ful and beneficial than aid programs and
similar efforts. I have not only extended
my personal best wishes and congratula-
tions to Mr. Mangiaracina, but I am also
writing to Police Commissioner Michael
J. Murphy, of New York, to congratulate
him and the fine men of his police de-
partment for a job well done. A little
incident like this is worth tons of
speeches.
It is of paramount importance for the
good will and prestige of our country
that we impress upon Americans travel-
ing abroad how urgent it is for them to
be on their best behavior. It is simi-
larly important that we extend the best
treatment and friendliness to foreigners
visiting our country. This could go a
long way toward strengthening the ties
of the United States with those of other
nations in cementing lasting friendship
with them and strong support for us in
our endeavors to attain security of the
free world.
