FRANK WILSON: "John Chambers has a report for WTOP News."
CHAMBERS: "The Central Intelligence Agency's new chief
has already apologized, and through a Republican Senator announced
he has not written other letters. Still, the Foreign Relations
Committee has ordered his appearance this morning, presumably
for a scolding.
"The incident flared on the Senate floor yesterday.
Senator McCarthy of Minnesota disclosed that CIA Chief Helms
wrote to the St. Louis Globe Democrat just to say how pleased
he was in reading its editorial entitled 'Brickbats for Fulbright',
a derogatory item describing Fulbright as crafty.
"But it was the CIA's intervention into domestic policy
that shocked and disappointed Senators, or so they said. Senator
McCarthy summarized 'This is one of the problems you face when
you promote career men. It's a little like the trouble you face
when you arm slaves. It takes a little time for them to adjust'
"John Chambers on Capitol Hill."
