He has .1 booming laugh, a mis- chievious twinkle in his eye, an easy charm and a thigh. !lapping appreciation of a . good story. He is the unlike- liest-looking "master spy" you ever saw The Soviet Union, about which Dulles knows a great deal?and would like to know .1 great deal mote--has a somewhat different estimate r.: the CIA director. To the ' iliks'ans. Dulles is a very sinister fellow indeed. He is, they ,ay a spy, a provocative meddler and a man bent' on ; zuession . . . Ilya . Ehrenburg, Russian prcpagandist, once wrote in ? Pravda. , . If the spy, Allen Dulles, should arrive in heaven through somebody's absent- mindedness, he would begin to blow up t'ne clouds, mine the stars and slaughter the angels " Proof of His Effectiveness. ' This brutal appraisal of Dulles by the Russians has the .encouraging Conclusion that he and his far-flung agency are doing an effective job in gathering intelligence and analyzing it an that the United States will have the in? ..- formation on which to base crucial foreign 'policy deci- sions. Precisely this is what Dulles and his agency are doing. Today marks a significant milestone. in the life of Dulles and the CIA, The cornerstone is being laid for the agency's ? 46-million4ollar building in the Virginia smuntryside 15 miles from downtown Wash- ington. The CIA, now housed ? in several old buildings in the foggy bottom section of Wash- ington. has let down its secrecy bars long encugh to announce that the hew structure will . have 1 million square -feet of 410or? space and will stand seven stories high. The United States has car- ried on intelligence activities since the days of George ? Washington, but only since World War II has this work been systematized on a gov? frninent-ulds boti. The.-air ganization first formed for this purpose originated In a letter dated January 22, 1946, in which Harry S Truman then President, directed the secretaries of State, War and Navy and his own personal representative to organize the 'National Intelligence Au? thority.".

The agency predicted, too, that British ahd French troops. would invade EgYpt. it correctly forecast that riots would be staged against Vice- President Nixon when he vis- ited South America. The CIA ? has much more rigid physical. mental and se- cUrity standards for Its em- ployees than any other gov- ernment agency. ? Out of every 1,000 appli- cations for employment in CIA, 80 per cent are screened out by personnel officials. The remaining 20 per .cent are turned over to security agencies for in%estigetion.. Of this 20 per cent, some 11, per cent are eliminated because they drink tod much, talk too much, or have rela- tives behind the Iron Curtain which may Make them sub- ject to foreign pressure. For serious security reasons 4 per cent of this 11. per cent are screened out, individuals who have cuntacts that make them undesirable for sensitive work. Like his brother, the late secretary ? of State. John Fos- crecy. The agency never says ter Dulles, Mien Dulles pre how much money' it spends, how it is spent or what type of duties Its personnel per- forms. .
