AUTOMATIC DATA PROCESSING IN
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
Mr. RIBICOFF. Mr. President, as a
member of the Ad Hoc Privacy Subcom-
mittee of the Government Operations .
Committee, I have been especially con-
cerned with the development, uses and
abuses of automatic data processing in
the Federal Government. The sharing
and distribution of data about citizens
has significant implications for the right
of privacy.
Currently, S. 3418, in the Senate Gov-
ernment Operations Committee is con-
cerned with determining what. standards
Congress should set for the protection
of privacy in the development and man-
agement of Federal information systems.
Surely, we cannot allow information
systems in the Federal Government to
become technological monsters without
proper and necessary controls to protect
private rights against unnecessary col-
lection and distribution of personal
data-nor can we allow information
vital to the public interest and the pub-
lic's right to gain access to information
to remain confidential.
However, it is important that Ameri-
cans have knowledge of, have access to,
and have the opportunity to change or
clarify information about their lives
which is part of a data bank system.
Mr. President, a recent editorial in the
Washington Post, July 19, discusses the
concern and need for legislation in this
area. I ask unanimous consent that the
article entitled "Controlling the Data
Banks" be printed in the RECORD.
There being no objection, the article

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD -SENATE
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
CONTROLLING THE DATA BANKS
Congressional concern about preserving
civil liberties has been, over the years, a
sometimes thing, so many people will be sur-
prised if the current surge of legislative in-
terest in protecting individual privacy ac-
tually produces much legislation. There are
growing indications, however, that this year
Congress might really follow through on at
least one major privacy issue by enacting a
measure to regulate data banks and protect
citizens against the improper or undisclosed
collection and use of personal information
by the government.
The need for controls has been amply doc-
umented. After four years of work, Sen.
Sam J. Ervin's Subcommittee on Constitu-
tional Rights has just released a landmark
study which itemizes 858 federal data banks
containing over 1.2 billion records on identi-
flable individuals. Over 86 per cent of these
files are computerized.. Various data banks
hold information on citizens' employment
records, medical problems, driving habits,
criminal histories, financial dealings, mili-
tary service and other sensitive subjects. At
least 29 files concentrate on derogatory in-
formation. In more than 42 per cent of the
cases, citizens are not notified that such rec-
ords about them are being kept. And only 1e
per cent of all these data banks have been
expressly authorized by law. All this Is dou-
bly awesome because the study is incom-
plete. It does not include the White House
"enemies lists" or the records maintained by
some agencies which refused to cooperate.
Clearly some basic rules need to be set be-
fore the government's penchant for collect-
ing information grows and further out of
hand. Last year an HEW advisory committee
proposed several fundamental principles:
that there should be no files whose existence
is undisclosed; that citizens should be able
to review and correct almost all records
about themselves; that information
gathered for one purpose should not be used
for another without the subject's consent;
and that extensive efforts should be made to
protect the security and confidentiality of
all files. These principles have been incor-
porated in the Koch-Goldwater bill in the
House and in Senate measures sponsored by
Sen. Ervin and several colleagues.
On both sides of the Capitol, useful hear-
ings have already been held. The legislative
efforts have received a strong assist from
Vice President Ford, who pushed the Office
of Management and Budget to submit some
specific recommendations to the Hill.
For all this progress, however, the hard
work is just beginning. Major disagreements
have surfaced about the way that basic poli-
cies should be applied to governmental files
as different as, for instance, the FBI's in-
vestigative dossiers and the masses of inac-
tive records in the National Archives. Agen-
cies have already started lobbying for ex-
emptions for national security files, per-
sonnel records, census data and other Cate-
gories. Indeed, some modifications will be
required. For example, notifying the subjects
of all files would be self-defeating for law
enforcement agencies; for the Archives it
would be impossible. But Congress should
resist the pressures to write such broad, per-
manent exemptions into a law. The prudent
course would be to authorize an oversight
board to make exemptions in accord with
strict guidelines and with ample opportunity
for public comment before any data-collect-
ing is allowed to proceed in secrecy.
Another major issue Is how ambitious
legislation should be. Some bills would reach
not only federal files but also state, local
and private data banks. Ultimately these files
should also be subject to controls, since citi-
zens can be hurt just as badly by the misuse
of private records as by federal mistakes.
Yet Congress may not know enough about
the multitude of nonfederal files to deal in-
telligently with them all at once. The diffi-
culties encountered in trying to regulate
credit reporting and limit the traffic in arrest
records suggest that a careful, step-by-step
approach is best outside the. federal domains.
By reforming the policies for federal agen-
cies and federal aid recipients, this Congress
can set a strong example for the states and
give citizens far more assurance that they
won't be hurt by information lurking some-
where in a data bank.
SOVIET MILITARY PRODUCTION
Mr. THURMOND, Mr. President, the
July 13, 1974, issue of the Sun News,
Myrtle Beach, S.C., contained an article
by Mr. Ernest Cuneo entitled "Russian
Steel Goes to Military."
This article draws attention to the fact
that the first rule of espionage analysis
is that the intent of a major power can
be measured by what it does with its
steel.
It is significant, therefore, that Russia
now produces more steel than the United
States and an extremely large percen-
tage of this production goes to military
requirements.
This is an important article and I urge
-its careful study by my colleagues,
Mr. President, I ask unanimous con-
sent that this article be printed in the
RECORD at the conclusion-of my remarks.
There being no objection, the article
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
RUSSIAN STEEL GOES TO MILITARY
(By Ernest Cuneo)
WASHINGTON (NANA) .It is a first rule
of espionage that the intent of a major power
can be measured by what it does with its
steel.
Hitler well knew this. He hid Germany's
vast increase in steel production, moving the
thick armor plate out at dead of night
conceal his vast rearmament program.
It took the best teams in Great Brita s
international, intelligence service to f 'et
out the destination and use of the me of

the other hand, is the base of a iplomatie
The amount of steel a natio roduces is
the first mark of its strength t is signifi-
cant, therefore, that Russia ow produces
more steel than the United ates.
Even more interesting, h ever, is what
Russia is doing with its s 1. Russia is, in
fact, engaged in a tremend crash military

tion of Russian tanks. Russian army has

But, though the land forces of . e Soviets
are a matter of prudent cone the truly
awesome growth of Soviet sea wer is, in
the opinion of American exper a far greater
threat to the West than the easing of the
Russian army in the land of Europe
The Red navy now has fo deep-sea fleets
and not less than 375 aeti longrange sub-
marines, with a projected tai of 585 sched-
uled for the 1970s. By ay of comparison,
Hitler's navy accoun for an average of
700,000 tons sunk pe month with a basic
submarine fleet of o 51.
The Baltic Sea a forest of Red masts.
Some knowledgeab people believe the naval
concentration ter re carries the greatest
broadside firepo in recorded history.
The opening f Suez, of course, will com-
pound the at ngth of the Red Black Sea-
Mediterrane forces by permitting the
union in t Red Sea of this Russian fleet
with flotil from the powerful Red Pacific
fleet.
Thus, hatever may be the diplomatic talk
of det to and of the thawing of the cold
war, ssia relentlessly pursues a policy of
unpr edented armament building, ap-
pro Ing what would have been called be-
for World War II a massive mobilization.
In addition, our jittery Western allies have
been all but panicked by the insistence on
the floor of the U.S. Senate that American
troops In Europe be cut by 150,000 men.
But this, to a degree, makes sense; in the
absence of a remedy for the huge relative
military decline of the West, the present dis-
array of NATO's military posture evokes un-
pleasant memory of the fate of Gen. Custer.
In brief and perhaps tragic testimony, re-
tired Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Elmo
R. Zumwalt, told the Congress that without
assistance from our allies, the U.S. 6th Fleet
in the Med could not answer for the security
of that crucial sea.
A free translation of this is that the
Soviet navy, with superior missile range and
brand new ships, has successfully challenged
the complete superiority which the U.S. 6th
Fleet had maintained until the middle '60s.
Add to this that much of the Russian
armament is going West to Europe and not
East to the Russo-Chinese border. Add fur-
ther, that detente has been slowed down
almost to a halt in the U.S. Congress be-
cause of the massive Red military buildup
and there is some hint, at least, that a fierce
Russian diplomatic offense against the West
is an increasing possibility.
When British intelligence reported to the
late unlamented Prime Minister Stanley
Baldwin that Hitler was arming to the teeth,
Baldwin suppressed the news on the ground
that his party would lose the election if it
were known.
The American political situation is as
bad; the truth Is not being told. Neither of
the major American parties has called Rus-
sian rearmament to the attention of the
American, people, founded on the perhaps
