The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a
previous order of the House, the gentle-
man from Iowa (Mr. BEDELL) is recog-
nized for 5 minutes.
Mr. BEDELL. Mr. Speaker, in recent
months we have heard much discussion
in this Chamber about the need for re-
ducing our dependence on foreign sources
of oil and for attaining greater energy
self-sufficiency. There, is little disagree-
ment over the importance of these goals.
However, securing a consensus on a pro-
gram for achieving them is an entirely
diff erent matter.
The administration's energy program
seeks to raise U.S. fuel prices to artificial-
ly high levels in order to discourage con-
sumption and encourage domestic invest-
ment in energy exploration, research and'
development. On the international front,
administration officials are attempting to
secure agreement among the oil-consum-
ing nations to negotiate with the oil pro-
ducers for a minimum floor price for
foreign oil. At home, President Ford has
called for the decontrol Of domestic oil
prices and the deregulation of natural
gas, and has proposed an ERDA budget
that places a distinctly top priority on
nuclear development and synthetic fuel
production.
The focal point of the administration's
energy strategy is high oil prices. We are
all aware of how the OPEC cartel has ad-
ministered the international price of oil.
In the last 18 months, OPEC has in-
creased the price of oil fivefold, and it
has just announced that it plans another
increase for September.
The administration's response to this
price fixing has been to advocate the
negotiation of a minimum floor price for
foreign oil
.
And
,
-what is even more dis-
turbing, administration spokesmen con-
tinue to argue that the price of domestic
oil should be allowed to rise to OPEC
levels.
In my view, this high-price energy
strategy is an unnecessarily risky policy
that holds ominous implications for the
American people and the American econ-
omy. Rather than stoically accepting,
and indeed even encouraging, high en-
ergy prices, we should be implementing
a program designed to force down the
excessively high price of oil, both foreign
and domestic. Higher and higher prices
will only prolong the recession and con-
tribute to greater inflation while further
increasing the profits of the international
oil companies and decreasing the pur-
chasing power of the American people.
What this Nation needs is an energy
again this year, with a new President and
a new majority in Congress.
INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION
OF OFFENSES RELATING TO IL-
LEGAL CIA DOMESTIC _ INTELI I-
GENCE ACTIVITIES -
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a-
previous order of, the House, the gentle-
man from New York (Mr. BADJLLO) is
recognized for 10 minutes.
Mr. BADILLO, Mr. Speaker, in recent
months, we have witnessed growing pub-
lic awareness and concern over invasions
of privacy and surveillance of private
citizens by agencies of the U.S. Govern-
ment. These feelings have been fueled
by allegations in the press and sub-
sequent information released by various
Federal officials - about the extent to
which illegal, improper, and unethical
activities were engaged in by agencies of
the Federal Government in carrying out
domestic intelligence and surveillance
functions. Last week the public learned
of the shocking magnitude of these ac- -
tivities when the President finally re-
leased the "Report of the Commission
on CIA -Activities Within the United
States." ..

lated the individual rights an liberties
o American ci izens as protected by the
Constitution and many Federal statutes.
These appears to be little question that
the conduct of such acts went far beyond

1973. Two years ago the average- price of
domestic oil was $3.50 a barrel; a ear later
it was $7.05. And as a result, the 1 Indus=
try's after-tax return on equity as risen
to a level nearly 50 per cent higher. than the
business average. If the Ford Administra
tion has its way, and all price controls are
'lifted, the price will hit $13 a barrel and
more which, combined with Mr. Ford's two
$1 tariffs, will cost the economy at least
$36 billion.
If, instead, domestic oil prices were rolled
back to a level closer to what a truly free
market would set, we would save about $7
billion a year. Such a rollback would free
dollars now wasted in inflated fuel prices
to be spent in depressed areas of the econ-
omy. The $7-billion figure, developed from
Library of Congress studies, assumes the.
price of "old oil" is rolled back from $5.25
a barrel to $4.25 a barrel and the price of
"new oil" Is reduced from $11-plus a bar-
rel to no more than $7 a barrel. This pol-
icy would guarantee the oil companies aver-
age prices 50 per cent greater than they
charged just two years ago.
The industry argues that it needs unlim-
ited prices and profits as "Incentives" to drill
more domestic oil. But industry apologists
did not discover $7 to be an inadequate in-
centive until after oil prices hit $11. In 1972,
the National Petroleum Council estimated
the average price would have to rise to $3.65

South Korea is an 'example of a. situa-
tion where the United States can and
should maintain a military committment
to an ally. The land forces of South Ko-
rea are extensive -and of high quality;
and South Korea thus provides the land
force element whichis not an appropri-
ate American contribution to any pos=
sible future conflict arising from North
Korean aggression. The United States
is enabled by the South Korean develop-
ment of adequate land forces to provide
to the alliance those forces which, we are-
best suited to provide: air and sea forces.
Such an arrangement Is appropriate to
the best interests and to the capabilities
of both parties,: and creates a situation
where the advantages of alliance out.
weigh any possible disadvantages.
It Is thus in our interest to maintain
our alliance with Korea, and to make-
clear to North Korea, through our dec-
larations, our unmistakable resolve to aid
our South Korean ally in the event of
North Korean aggression. We must never
repeat our error, which led to the Korean
war of 25 years-ago, of stating that Ko-
rea does not constitute an important in-
terest of the United States, and of giving
the mistakeny impression that we would
not use military force to aid South Korea
in the event of aggression. South Korea
is an important ally of the United States,
an ally which continues to maintain its
own defense in such a way that the land
war aspect of a Korean conflict would
not have to fall on us. It Is .thus in our
interest in every way to continue our
committment to Korea. I have no doubt
that we shall do so.

Interstate money, and the administra- gress of U.S. intelligence activities. As a mom-
how often. they travel, what kind of
transportation they will use, and how
they will get to work. Yet there is no
leadership . from the executive branch.
What we need is a national transpor-
tation policy, a sense of transportation
investment priorities, which will assure
the American people that the most mo-
bile Nation on earth will not become
immobilized. as our supplies of energy
become imperiled.
I can no longer wait for the adrninis-
tration proposals. Today, I am announc-
ing a comprehensive series of hearings
on the future of the highway program
and the importance of national trans-
portation policy. In these hearings,
which will center around specific issues,
we. will explore indepth the directions
of transportation policy for this decade
and beyond.
Our witness list includes administra-
tion witnesses; State, and local officials;
citizens' and environmental groups;-
transit officials; academicians; and two
former Federal Highway Administra-
tors.--
We expect these hearings to have an
extra dimension, for we are dealing with
a set of circumstances unlike any we
have faced before. I have informed the
witnesses that we do not want to hear
a restatement of old arguments; we want
to explore the premises underlying our
transportation policy and leave our-
selves open to a wide range-of options,
either to -continue programs which are
effective or to restructure the entire
highway program.
Meanwhile, these witnesses should
have the opportunity to review the ad-
ministration's proposals. I urge the
President, the Secretary of Transporta-
tion, and the Office of Management and
Bud;end this inexcusable delay and
the table so that my subcommittee and
the Congress can debate them on the
merits
ber of the Senate Select Committee to Study
Government Operations with Respect to 5n-
telligence Activities, i am- convinced that
the Senate can make a constructive Investi-
gation--and. indeed, that such an investiga-
tion is sorely needed.
In the aftermath of Watergate and follow-
ing a series of shocking revelations of the
abuse of power, it is clear that one of t?he
most important tasks facing the Congress 18
to determine the proper role of intelligence
agencies within our constitutional system of
government. Thirty years' experience has
proven that the existing legal foundation
for our intelligence agencies, eestablished
in 1947, is inacjequate. It is necessary to write
new laws, to draw new guidelines for our in-
telligence agencies. _
That is why Senator Mansfield and I pro-
posed in October of 1974 that the Senate es-
tablish a select committee to make a detailed
,study of the legal authorities of all U.S.
intelligence agencies, foreign and domestic,
and of the over-all U.S. intelligence require.
ments.
It is an astonishiin fact for example that
there is no specific authority for aL covert
o erations b the C.LA. an here in the law.
I th ast it has been ar ue at the
President mpow 12Y- t ak_
Security Act -of 1947 to assign "intelligence
tions are subsumed under the meaW of
"'in- elligen_ce activities."
Covert activities of some kind might be,
necessary in some future circumstances.
There must be sound guidelines consistent
-with constitutional guarantees. Moreover,
the distinctions between foreign. and domes-
tic are-far less clear now than they may have
seemed in the years just following World
War U.
Technological advance, a boon to the agen-
cies, has proven to he a threat to constitu-
tional guarantees. It is clear that secrecy
and open democratic government have
proven to be uneasy partners.
It is my view that there is a requirement
for a thoughtful redefinition of our national
intelligence needs. I am convinced that the
Select Committee on Intelligence offers the
best means of resolving the type of ques-
tions enumerated by Mr. Baldwin and in
the nonpartisan, thorough and considered

 S 1170C CONGRESSIONAL RECORD --SENATE June 26, J9.75--
accurate or irresponsible press accounts and
self-serving politicians have greatly dam-
aged United States intelligence organiza-
tions,
Some crippling restrictions already im-
posed are now being followed by extensive
and num"sous investigations into every
facet of intelligence and counterintelligence,
which may result in new and dangerous
exposure o:: organizations, methods and per-
sonnel.
One of the most damaging and irresponsi-
ble leaks In United States intelligence
history-the widely published accounts of
the salvag-'ng of the sunken Soviet sub-
marine-al:?eady has occurred, with- the
media, in the name of freedom, damaging
the defense of freedom.
Nor is it encouraging that The New York
Times allowed the columnist Jack Anderson
to trigger its. own actions. The consequent
publication by The Times and all other media
of a fantastic technological feat and an
intelligence coup still incomplete could
cause immense potential damage. One need
only recall the broken codes of World War
II, and, in recent history, the nasty surprises
new, Soviet weapons provided in Vietnam
and in the 1973 Arab-Israeli war.
The current investigations, therefore-un-
less they at e to be of great aid and comfort
to those win would destroy the system of
political fr. edom that makes such investi-
gations po:rsible-must concentrate on the
constructiv>, not the destructive; on the
future, not the past.
They must avoid, at all costs, any more
public exposure of secret intelligence meth-
ods, technilogy or personnel. No intelli-
gence organization, even in a democracy,
can be a completely open book if it is to
be worth it: cost.
But there are some key questions that
require reassessment.
Are them, for instance, too many semi-
independent intelligence agencies, each
vying for power? Or does each have its im-
portant specialized role and does each act
as check-ref n on the others?
Should ti.e director of Central Intelligence
be given more power-to knock heads to-
gether, to merge, to allocate tasks? Or would.
this continue and expand an already dan-
gerous centralization of power?
Intelligence and counterintelligence are
twins. Wha :, particularly, should be the rela-
tionships between the Central Intelligence
Agency and Federal Bureau of Investigation,.-
and whoshauld do-what in counterespionage
and countei-subversion?
It is eas; to dismiss the Communist end
radical and terrorist threats as bogeymen;
yet the capability of Puerto Rican nation-
alists and radical Weathermen to bomb pub-
lic places repeatedly without detection-and
the ability of so well-known a figure as Patty
Hearst to remain hidden in an American
undegrounc, speaks badly indeed for present
and recent attempts of our intelligence serv-
ices to corn tat espionage, subversion or even
simple anar ;hy.
How does one define the thin line between
freedom an-1 license, security and repression
the "right -t) know" and irresponsibility? The
political exi.remists and fanatics, in pursuit
of revolution, believe that the ends literally
justify any neans.
United States intelligence agencies can
never embrace such a concept, without ulti-
mately aldi ig the hidden enemy. The adop-
tion of such a policy-the ends justifying any
means-would subvert our own institutions.
Yet there is a nagging problem here; a threat
exists and it cannot be met by mouthing
shibboleths
How should authority over our intelligence
services at the top level be exercised? In-
telligence Ic. a tool of government; as such
it can be t' irned by those who control it to
secret intelligence it is clear that only ::
handful of Congressmen, picked for ability,
judgment and discretion and devotion to
the common good, can be kept fully informed.
Intelligence-facts, secrets, our own and
the opposition's-meariej, today and for the
future, security-the difference between, the
life and death of a nation. -
Granted the need, how then do you keel:
intelligence apolitical, freed from the am-
bivalent pressures of domestic politics, in a
milieu such as Washington, which is high-
ly partisan?
And, ultimately, the larger question-the
unresolved residue of Watergate-how do you
curb - executive power without crippling it
and how do you operate a democratic govern-
ment, or for that matter, any government
without secrecy? -

eliminating deduction for the
first-class component of air travel as ar

- Recently, there have come to my at-
tention two press items supporting this
legislation. Mr. President, I ask unani-
mous consent that an editorial from the
Sacramento Bee and an opinion column
from the Louisville Times be printed ir.

There being no objection, the material
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD
as follows:
[From the Sacramento Bee, May 15, 19751
FLYING HIGH
Many tax benefits which the government
allows as the ordinary and necessary cost of
doing business are legitimate and there is
no quarrel with them. Others are not-to an
extent that may surprise the general tax-
payer.
Critics contend the definition of "ordinary
and necessary"-with a 48-cent tax subsidy
for every dollar of deductible business ex-
pense-has been stretched beyond the break-
Ing point in a number of areas. -
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy says the average
citizen has been a silent partner at many
high-living business functions: The cor-
porate host pays half the bill himself but
sticks the taxpayer with the other half. The
Massachusetts Democrat says it costs the
government hundreds of millions, perhaps
billions, of dollars to maintain the extrava-
gant executive in style.
Kennedy told the Senate that whatever the
complexity of other aspects of the business
expense issue, the tax break allowed for first-
class air travel is one of the least justifiable
and that's why he was prompted to introduce
legislation to eliminate it.
Based on Civil Aeronautics Board figures,
.the bill would bring in an. additional $280
million in tax revenue this year, $342 million
next year and as much as $431 million in
1978.
Nothing in the bill would prevent the ex-
ecutive from flying first class: the additional
cost simply would be treated as a nonde-
ductible luxury item In a period of concern
i..aac 1anut, 'Nov. tine couple seated behind
me attracted the attention of my seatmate., a
Chicago newspaperman.
"Your governor (of Kentucky) and his wife
are the only gubernatorial party I've seen not
flying first-class, up front," he said in won-
der.
Ile referred to the fact that Gov. and Mrs.
Wendell Ford were happily seated with hot
pallol in the less spacious, less gracious-but
cheaper--section of the aircraft. Gov. Ford
made no big deal about flying economy class;.
able or otherwise, for such frugality.
a $1 billion state budget, the dollar sav-
ard, I believe, for other state employees
given their choice, would wing off on
order confines of the first-class section.
v. Ford is now Sen. Ford and I have
ire that taxpayers are subsidizing their first-
class travel. They are the business and pro-
fessional people on expense account, The ex-
pense accounts subsequently become federal
tax deductions. And you and I and every
other taxpayer help foot the bi.l for those
ritzy flights.
Sen. Kennedy's bill would allow deduc-
tions only for legitimate, business-related
flights that are in the coach (or economy)
cl ass.
. In this time of d,:ep recession, there
Is no justification for a loophole In the tax
laws that requires thehard-pressed average
taxpayer to subsidize the comforts of frst-
class airfare for traveling executives," Sen
Kennedy said.
The senator also noted that outlawing fir=-
class flights as deductible expense it.-
would produce P. modest, but meaning-Z'. tax saving: An estimated $280 million i...
1975 and up to $431 million by 1978.
Sen. Kennedy's bill in no way penalizes
businesses. "It is a legitimate business dt
sion to travel by air .. ," he said, pointing
out that a businessman flying in the coach
section gets to his destination at precisely
the same time as the person flying first-class.
Therefore, he said the coach-class fare "is
all that should be allowe3 as a business ta;
deduction." -
"With the marginal corporate tax rate:
48 per cent, the corporation receives a 4r---
cent tax subsidy for every dollar of deduct-
ible business expense," Sen. Kennedy said.
"In effect, the ordinary taxpayer picks ul
half the tab for every business expense that
qualifies as a tax deduction. Every time the
waiter brings the billat the end of a martini
business-lunch or four-course dinner or
evening entertainment, the corporate host
pays halt the bill himself, but he sticks the
taxpayer with the other half."
Congress this year would be wise to tighten
up the business-deduction laws to make sure
that "business trips" are deductible only if
"business," and not pleasure, Is the chief
reason for the trips. Numerous other expense
account loopholes shoulc?_ be closed. But a
good start for this tax reform would be Sen.
Kennedy's bill. If it passes, it would no longer
surprise a Chicago newsman to see a governor
flying economy class, back: there with all the ;
ordinary taxpayers.
