The legislation follows the spirit and intent of
recent Office of Personnel Management (OPM) initiatives for
a simplified management system approach to the existing Civil
Service Personnel Management Program. DLI personnel are in
full support of these initiatives and are striving to accomplish
superior employee production. The OPM initiatives, however,
fall short of allowing DLI to meet fully its organizational
goals. DLI is a uniquely designed academic Insitution
comprised of foreign language teaching specialists with
native-level proficiency. There is no system allowing for
progression in this environment by academic degree attainment
or superior academic achievement. In addition, the Institute
needs authority to classify its academic personnel and to
support academic degree attainment.
The purpose of this legislation is to grant the
Secretary of Defense the authority to establish an in-
dependent civilian personnel management system for the
DLI and to promulgate regulations that will allow for the
career development and training of faculty to meet the
language training mission similar to private academic
institutions. The proposed changes in the personnel manage-
ment systems would lead to the professionalization of the
faculty and resources. It would also lead to a significant
improvement in student graduation rates. This improvement
would contribute significantly to educating graduates who
can perform at the required level in critical intelligence
and foreign liaison functions throughout the Department of
Defense and the national Intelligence Community.

DLI is an academically and professionally accredited
Institution of higher education operated for the Department
of Defense by the Department of the Army through its Train-
ing and Doctrine Command. As a part of the Federal Govern-
ment it is administered under normal military and civil
service procedures. DLI is accredited by the Accrediting
Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, Western
Association of Schools and Colleges. Since DLI is not a
degree-granting Institution, it is recognized under the
jurisdiction of the Junior Commission as a specialized
post-secondary institution.
DLI is responsible for all military foreign language
training for the Department of Defense. DLI trains
approximately 6,000 students per year from all four Services
(Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps). For academic
and administrative purposes, the Institute is organized
into six separate language schools with a total of 38
separate language departments. Each school is headed by a
dean and each department by a chairperson. During the past
decade, the DLI civilian faculty and staff has almost
doubled to its current total of approximately 870 instruct-
ional and academic support personnel.

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/12/28: CIA-RDP90M00005R001500050008-8
The language instruction that DLI provides becomes the
foundation for future development in the students' designated
career fields. Each career field requires specific language
proficiency levels for its personnel. Currently, many of
these levels are not being attained. While numerous factors
contribute to this situation, a major problem is faculty
personnel management as it is administered under the current
civil service system. The growth in DLI student population
(nearly an 85 percent increase in graduates from 1979 to
1986) has resulted in personnel management requirements which
exceed existing limits. Specifically, the current classifi-
cation system gives rank and pay to each position. It
provides little or no flexiblity for reward of individual
qualifications and contributions. The necessity to double
faculty size has resulted in the hiring of numerous native
speakers who are not trained in language teaching. At present
only extremely limited professional training can be provided
to correct this serious deficiency.

Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/12/28: CIA-RDP90M00005R001500050008-8
To correct these serious problems, the enclosed legisla-
tion is proposed. It would grant the Secretary of Defense
classification and compensation authority for DLI. This would
allow DLI to structure its work force following accepted
academic models. Specifically, academic staff and faculty
personnel would be awarded academic ranks based upon individual
qualifications. Personnel would be required to meet established
academic standards and would be compensated according to their
individual contributions to the organization. This would
provide management the flexibility essential to the operation
of a modern educational institution. It should be noted that
comparable personnel management systems have already been
authorized for other Federal institutions: the U. S. Naval
Academy by Section 6952 of title 10, U.S.C., the Naval War
College by Section 7478 of title 10, U.S.C., the U. S. Naval
Postgraduate School by Section 7044 of title 10, U.S.C.,
the U. S. Coast Guard Academy by Section 186 of title 14,
the Merchant Marine Academy by Section 1126(e) of title 14,
U.S.C., the Panama Canal College by title 20, U.S.C., and
the Air Force Institute of Technology by title 10, U.S.C.
The second legislative change requested would allow DLI
to provide financial assistance to the faculty in pursuit of
degrees in fields related to foreign language teaching. Such
authority would have an immediate, positive impact on faculty
qualifications and be a major investment in improving the
professional quality of the faculty.

The total additional cost of implementing this proposed
legislation during the next five years is estimated at $1.3
million. However, by enhancing the quality of language
instruction, the proposal is expected to improve the proficiency
of students by approximately 25% without increasing course
length. The cost of increasing the length of courses to
achieve a 25% increase in proficiency under the existing
instructional system would be approximately $55 million over
the next five years. Thus, the proposal is estimated to
result in a net avoidance of costs of approximately $53.7
million in the next five years.

SEC. . adds a new Subsection (g) to Section 5532,
Subchapter IV, Chapter 55 of title 5, United States Code
to permit retired military personnel to receive their full retir-
ed or retainer pay when employed by the United States Government
on intelligence-related duties. Under present law, a retired
officer of a Regular Component holding a position with the U. S.
Government forfeits a portion of his retired pay. The effect of
this policy is to discourage such retired officers from seeking
Government positions. There is, however, a particular need to
attract to Government service retired military personnel with
intelligence backgrounds; this section provides a means of doing
so. By the time they retire, military intelligence officers are
trained and qualified to high levels of unique professional
expertise and are generally functioning at the height of their
career productivity. If they could fill civilian positions,
without financial loss, the United States Government would be
able to obtain and benefit from their continued service.
Additionally, the civilian component of the Intelligence
Community would be strengthened by the admixture of retired
officers and civilian personnel lacking such prior military
experience.

these clandestine activities. This promotion authority will be
used only if the Secretary of the Army determines that public
disclosure of the identities and Army affiliation of the
officers concerned might endanger their personal safety or
compromise sensitive intelligence or counterintelligence opera-
tions. The new provision authorizes the President, acting
alone, to appoint such officers to grades below that of brigadier
general. It also requires the Secretary of the Army to provide
annual reports to the Armed Services Committees of the Senate
and House of Representatives specifying the number of officers
appointed under this special procedure and the grades to which

Subsection adds new subsection (e) to Sec-
tion 1430 of title 8 to allow members of the U. S. Army
Russian Institute (USARI) staff who have defected or
emigrated to the West to obtain U. S. citizenship while
working at the school in Garmisch, Federal Republic of
Germany. Section 1430 already allows several excep-
tions to the normal requirement of prior residence or
physical presence within the United States for U. S.
citizenship. The new subsection will allow members of
the USARI staff to remain at the school to perform
their teaching duties while at the same time accruing
time towards U. S. citizenship. At the present time a
majority of the staff at USARI are stateless. Because
of the location of the school, employees are unable to
fulfill the residency requirement for U.S. citizenship.
As defectors and emigres, the employees are unable to
receive any of the benefits and protections guaranteed
by U.S. citizenship. Their unique situation, their
dedication, and their invaluable contribution to the
United States Government justify an exception to the
statutory requirement. This section would also provide
an incentive to qualified defectors and emgires to con-
sider USARI as an employment alternative without for-
feiting their right to apply for U.S. citizenship.

SEC. . amends paragraph 1590(e)(1) of Chapter 81
of title 10, United States Code, which was enacted as
Section 504 of the Fiscal Year 1987 Intelligence Authoriza-
tion Act, Public Law 99-569, 27 October 1986, by deleting the
phrase ", during fiscal year 1987,". The operative effect
of the deletion is to grant the Secretary of Defense permanent
special termination authority with regard to any civilian
intelligence officer or employee of a military department
under the circumstances detailed in paragraph 1590(e)(1).
Deletion of the phrase ", during Fiscal Year 1987," in
paragraph 1590(e)(1) parallels action previously initiated
by the Defense Intelligence Agency to grant permanent
special termination authority to the Secretary of Defense
vis-a-vis civilian officer or employee of the Defense
Intelligence Agency by amending paragraph 1604(e)(1) of
title 10. Parity alone between the DIA and the Military
Services in managing their civilian intelligence personnel
population dictates adoption of this proposal. It is hoped
that the Secretary of Defense will never have to make use
of this special termination authority; such authority will
be invoked only as a last resort. Should an instance arise
when it is necessary to invoke this authority, it will be
too late to enact such a provision.

In response to an expansion of
STAT
personal services for instructors at
courses, DIA has tasked Army to fill six new instructor
positions at In order to fill these positions, Army
would be required to adopt one of three alternatives: pull
officers from their duties in the field; attempt to hire the
instructors as civil service annuitants; or hire the instructors
by means of a Government contract. The first alternative is
unacceptable operationally, as the personnel are far more
urgently needed in the field. The second alternative is also
unacceptable, as the likely pool of candidates is made up mainly
of retired Government employees, civilian and military, and the
salary that could be paid to them as annuitants is severely
limited by statute. The salary limitation would make the
position extremely unattractive. The final alternative is
considered acceptable, but only if the instructors can be hired
with a contract for personal services. It is necessary for
Army to retain a high degree of flexibility in the assignment
of duties to the instructors and to maintain the type of
supervisory control that exists in an employer/employee
relationship, a control found only in a personal service
contract. This amendment will permit the Army to contract for
