When General Smith- of the.

either Davies or "Tawny Pi-

One alternative to Congres-
sional surveillance is more ex-
pliclit responsibility by the
President and the Secretary of
State. But this, too, presents
a problem. The C.I.A. is a
"dirty" operation and the.
President and the Secretary,
of State have to stay "clean."
Unpleasant things done in a
cynical world are rarely ad-

two, exceptions, the , U-2 af-

Congress will grow. Yet the

intelligence is ? defeated by
publicity; democracy is de-.
