In Washington: A man who chooses his
issues carefully and times his few speeches for
maximum impact, Hamilton in the course of 22
years service has built a reservoir of respect
few members can match.
In the coming months, he may need to dip
into that reservoir at least a little bit, as he
finds himself embroiled in the sort of public
controversy he has preferred to avoid in the
past. Already a crucial player in foreign policy
through his role on the Foreign Affairs and
Intelligence committees. Hamilton now is in
charge of the special committee investigating
the Iran-contra affair.
Hamilton's two years as Intelligence chair-
man in the 99th Congress marked perhaps the
first effort of his long career that did not meet
with universal praise from all sides. He handled
the work with his customary fairness and grace,
and maintained the independent approach to
the CIA that had established the committee's
reputation. But in his reluctance to engage in
partisan warfare. Hamilton held back from
investigating early reports of illegal White
House links to a private network dispatching
funds to the Nicaraguan contras.
In September of 1985, then-national secu-
rity adviser Robert C. McFarlane appeared
before the Intelligence panel at an informal
hearing. There was little evidence available to
contradict McFarlane's denials of administra-
tion involvement in illegal contra aid. Hamilton
said at the time. "How could we take the word
of nothing on the one hand against the very
specific word of the U.S. national security ad-
viser on the other'?"
More than a year later, as the Iran-contra
scandal unfolded. -Hamilton admitted that he
might have done more to investigate the situa-
tion. "One of the emerging lessons from these
events." he said, "is that we did not have
sufficient oversight...." Hamilton conceded
514
that the committees involved. including his
own, "did not do as good a job as we should
have done."
Hamilton's reputation for evenhandedness
is one that does not preclude strongly held
views: Hamilton has in fact been a leader in
efforts to force Reagan to change his policy of
aiding the contras. "I still don't think the
policy is working." Hamilton said in early 1986.
"The Sandinistas are more repressive, the war
is continuing, the peace process hasn't moved
anywhere. What have we gotten?"
Hamilton drafted a compromise in the
spring of 1985 designed to aid Nicaraguan
refugee's and promote a Central American re-
gional peace treaty. Hamilton called his pro-
posal "tough-minded diplomacy" with a better
chance of success than trying to force the
Nicaraguan government to negotiate "with a
gun to its head." In June of 1985, the House
voted for humanitarian aid to the contras, but
no direct military assistance. Hamilton op-
posed that move. A year later, he again was on
the losing side as the House agreed to give the
contras an additional $100 million.
Behind Hamilton's feelings against U.S.
aid to the Nicaraguan rebels is a fundamental
discomfort with the American Military pres-
ence in Central America. "There seems to be a
disproportionate emphasis on the military as-
pect of our policy." he said in 1984. criticizing
the buildup of U.S. troops and equipment in
Honduras. "The problems there are funda-
mentally economic and social, and we're re-
sponding with military might."
Hamilton's policy views and his low-key
style have evolved over 20 years on Foreign
Affairs, which he joined as a freshman in 1965.
and on the Europe and Middle East Subcom-
mittee. which he chairs. He is one of a handful

L.. H. Hamilton, D-Ind.
Indiana 9
This is the largest and least urbanized
district in the state. The hilly forests and
farm lands are more akin to Kentucky and
parts of southern Ohio and Illinois than to
the flat Hoosier farm lands farther north.
Many of those who settled here came from
the South and brought with them their
Democratic allegiances.
Poultry and cattle are the major agri-
cultural commodities of the area, which is
also the center of some of the nation's finest
and most abundant limestone quarries.
Stone cutters, like those portrayed in the
Movie "Breaking Away," regularly excavate
rock that is used for building material
throughout the country.
The Indiana suburbs of Louisville, Ky.,
along the Ohio River, make up the district's
largest concentration of voters. The focal
point of this mostly middle-income area is
New Albany, which lies just across the Ohio
River from Louisville and is the district's
largest city, with 37,000 people. Population
expansion in the river counties during the
1970s was the main reason the 9th grew

Bloomington; New Albany
faster than any other Indiana district dur-
ing the decade.
In the days of the steamboats, when
Indiana's economy depended upon the car-
goes that came up the Ohio River, New
Albany was the state's largest city. Although
the river's contribution to the local liveli-
hood has dropped off considerably in the
last hundred years, the 9th still depends
upon river traffic and industries located
along the river bank for many jobs.
In its northwest corner, the 9th takes in
most of the Democratic parts of Blooming-
ton, the home of Indiana University. The
district boundary runs along 3rd Street in
Bloomington, placing the northern two-
thirds of the city's 52,000 residents in the
9th. Included in that area is all of Indiana
University's campus as well as most of the
off-campus housing and faculty neighbor-
hoods.
Population: 544,873 White 530291 (97%). Black

of members who have made the once-passive
Foreign Affairs Committee closer in stature to
its traditionally dominant Senate counterpart.
Now second in line on the full committee
behind Chairman Dante B. Fascell of Florida,
Hamilton seems almost certain to inherit the
committee at some point in the next few years.
In 1972, Hamilton sponsored the first end-
the-Vietnam-War measure ever adopted by the
Foreign Affairs Committee. His amendment to
a foreign aid bill called for withdrawal of U.S.
forces from Vietnam, contingent on release of
all prisoners of war and agreement with North
Vietnam on a cease-fire plan. The amendment
was killed on the House floor in August 1972,
but it helped set the stage for later congres-
sional actions to end the war.
That perspective was a factor in 1986,
when Hamilton rebelled against the Reagan
administration's "covert- aid to guerrillas in
Angola. He argued that the secret aid
amounted to a major foreign policy shift that
should be publicly discussed. The president,
Hamilton said. "cannot expect sustained sup-
port for foreign policy initiatives, including
covert action operations, that are generally
unpopular or where a covert action mechanism
can be viewed as having been chosen to avoid
public debate or a congressional vote on the
matter." But Congress approved aid to the
Angolan guerrillas.
As chairman of the Europe and the Middle
East Subcommittee, Hamilton has sought to
steer a middle course between the panel's mili-
tant pro-Israel faction and those who want to
pay serious attention to Arab and Palestinian
demands. He has the respect of the American
Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the
dominant lobbying presence on his panel, but
he is far from an automatic AIPAC vote. Ham-
ilton sharply criticized Israeli handling of thc
raids on Palestinian camps in Lebanon. In the
98th Congress, Hamilton was one of only four
committee members who voted against a House
resolution seeking to move the U.S. Embassy in
Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem ? a high
priority for many supporters of Israel, although
not so much for AIPAC.
Hamilton also has been one of the more
skeptical members in his approach toward Rea-
gan administration plans for new arms sales to
Jordan. He has questioned the link between

arms sales and the peace process. calling it
"more of a negative than a positive one.- Rejec-
tion of the Jordan sale by the 99th Congress. he
said. "may complicate diplomacy: it may cause
the king to have some doubts. I don't know that
approval of the sale will help push the process
forward."
When the Reagan administration first pro-
posed the sale of 400 shoulder-fired Stinger
missiles to Saudi Arabia. Israel complained
that the weapon might fall into the hands of
Arab terrorists. Hamilton essentially stayed out
of the dispute at that time. He chose not to sign
a "Dear Colleague- letter opposing the sale, but
never endorsed it either. In the end. the admin-
istration went through with the sale. and Con-
gress did not block it.
In 1986. when the administration again
proposed arms sales to Saudi Arabia. Hamilton
took a different approach. He told critics their
opposition would "reinforce a lot of anti-Amer-
ican feelings in the area.- He was one of only 17
Democrats who did not vote with the majority
to block the sale. which eventually took place.
In his subcommittee's sensitive debates
over aid to Greece and Turkey. Hamilton has
played what amounts to a referee's role. He has
been willing to back increased arms sales to
Turkey. but has insisted on imposing condi-
tions and considering arms for Greece at the
same time.
Hamilton began to build his favorable
reputation early in his House career: winning
election in 1965 as president of the huge fresh-
man Democratic class in the 89th Congress.
Later the same year. Hamilton received wide-
spread press attention with a letter to Presi-
dent Johnson saying it was "time to pause" in
action on Great Society social programs.
For several years. Hamilton spent much of
his time on ethics issues as a member of the
Committee on Standards of Official Conduct.
In 1977 he chaired a task force that recom-
mended new rules limiting members' outside
earned income and honoraria. Most of the
recommendations were adopted by the House.
although in 1981 the outside income limit was
doubled. to 30 percent of a member's salary.
In the 96th Congress. Hamilton was the
dominant Democrat on the ethics committee.
performing many of the behind-the-scenes
chores for its mercurial chairman. Charles E.
Bennett of Florida.
Hamilton persuaded the panel to revise
the ethics rules to clarify the differences among
various punishments meted out in ethics cases.
He worked on the committee's recommenda-
tion of censure for Michigan Democrat Charles

well as on the Abscam bribery investigations

Bennett and most of the committee. The panel
recommended that Rep. Michael "Ozzie-' N1
D-Pa.. be expelled following his conviction
in federal court for accepting bribes. The ex
pulsion came to the floor on the day the House
was scheduled to recess for the 1980 elections.
and Hamilton said the rushed atmosphere wa:
denying Myers due process. But the majorit
was on the other side. and Myers was expelled.
Hamilton left the panel at the end of I98(i.
At Home: The son and brother of mini:.
ters. Hamilton has a devotion to work that
comes oui of his traditional Methodist family.
From his days in Evansville High School in
1948. when he helped propel the basketball
team to the state finals, to his race for Congress
in 1964. he displayed a quiet, consistent deter ?
mination.
When he graduated from DePauw Univer-
sity in 1952. he received an award as the-
outstanding senior. He accepted a scholarship
to Goethe University in Germany for further
St udy.
Hamilton practiced law for a while in Chi-
cago. but soon decided to settle in Columbus.
Indiana. where his interest in politics led him
into the local Democratic Party. In 1960 he was
chairman of the Bartholomew County (Colum-
bus, Citizens for Kennedy. Two years later he-
managed Birch Bayh's Senate campaign in
Columbus.
He was the consensus choice of the local
Democratic organization for the 9th District
House nomination in 1964. and won the pri-
mary with 46 percent oi the vote in a field of
five candidates. He went on to defeat longtime
Republican Rep. Earl Wilson, a crusty fiscal
watchdog who had represented the district for
almost a quarter of a century.
With his widespread persona! respect.
Hamilton has been re-elected easily ever since.
After a few years. Republicans gave up on
defeating him and added Democrats to his
district to give GOP candidaies a better chance
elsewhere in the state. In 1976. for the first
time in the history of the district. the Republi-
cans put up no candidate at all. In 1951't and
1954. Reagan's popularity in Indiana caused
Hamilton no trouble.
Conceding that Hamilton was unbeatable.
the GOP Legislature made no effort to weaken
him in l9S1 redistricting. although the:, re-
moved Hamilton's home town of Columbus
from the district. He moved to the- next o?unty
and was re-elected with 6; percent.

3 Bob Stump (R)
Of Tolleson ? Elected 1976
Born: April 4, 1927, Phoenix. Ariz.
Education: Arizona State V.. B.S. 1951.
Military Career Navy, 1943.46.
Occupation: Farmer.
Family: Divorced: three children.
Religion: Seventh-day Adventist.
Political Career Ariz. House. 1959-67: Ariz. Senate,
1967.77. Senate president. 1975-77.
Capitol Office: 211 Cannon Bldg. 20515: 225-4576.
In Washington: Stump has served in the
House on both sides of the aisle, but he has
stuck to the back benches on each side. In the
course of more than a decade in office. he has
introduced few bills and spoken remarkably
rarely on the floor.
When he does rise in the House. it is nearly
always to make a conservative point on a de-
fense or foreign policy issue.
During 1986 deliberations on an intelli-
gence authorization bill. Stump joined Florida
Democrat Claude Pepper in offering an amend- ?
ment allowing the CIA to continue providing
covert military aid to rebels fighting the Marx-
ist government of Angola. The original bill
included a requirement that aid for the Angola
rebels be publicly debated and approved by
Congress. "It's a tough world.- Stump said.
-and some things must be done in secret to be
successful.- His amendment passed. 229-186.
Stump maintains his hard-line views about
other foreign policy matters as a member of the
Armed Services Committee. Even as other
hawks were backing away from a C.S. military..
presence in Lebanon in 1983. Stump did not
waver in his support. saying. "We need to raise
the flag ? we've retreated one too many
times.-
From 1983 to 1987. Stump also served on
Intelligence: in the 99th Congress. he was rank-
ing Republican on the committee. and proved a
loyal supporter of the government intelligence
community. In 1954. when Congress was decid-
ing whether to exempt the Defense Department
from a .bill curbing the federal government's
use of lie detectors. Stump argued that more
agencies should be able to use the tests. specifi-
cally the FBI. because of its counterintelligence
programs. "I don't think we've gone far
enough.- he said.
Stump's switch frOm the Democratic Party
58
to the GOP was easil
his House career.
First elected in 1976 and re-elected twice
as a Democrat, Stump was the target of a long
and vigorous recruiting effort by Republican
officials, who urged him to cross the aisle and
run for office the way he voted on the floor ?
in support of the GOP. In 1951. a few months
after he backed President Reagan in the critical
tax and budget decisions. Stump announced he
would finally make the move. He said he had
been a Democrat out of family tradition, but
felt increasingly alienated from his party.
Republicans boasted that Stump's switch
was a harbinger, and that other disaffected
Democrats would soon join the GOP. But only
one other Democrat left his party ? Eugene V.
Atkinson of Pennsylvania ? and he lost the
next election.
The party switch resulted in a temporary
setback for Stump. He had won his place on
Veterans' Affairs in 1981. when the Conserva-
tive Democratic Forum pressured Speaker
Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. to give prize assignments
to conservatives. But two years later. new party
ratios in the House altered tie balance on each
committee: reducing the Republican member-
ship of Veterans' Affairs from 15 to II. Stump.
then last in seniority, failed to win a place. He
did not regain it until 1957.
Perhaps the most permanent effect of
Stump's switch was a change in party rules.
Stump had been allowed to keep his Demo-
cratic seats on Armed Services and Veterans'
Affairs through the 97th Congress, despite his
declared intention to run as a Republican in
1982 In 1983 Democrats pushed through a rule
providing that any future member who leaves
the party in the middle of a session loses his
Democratic committee assignments immedi-
ately.

Once dominated almost entirely by
"pinto Democrats" ?? ranchers and other
conservative rural landowners ? the 3rd
has become prime GOP turf over the years.
The GOP has fared particularly well
here in recent presidential elections. There
was no county anywhere in the district in
which President Reagan did not approach
60 percent of the vote in 1984: four years
earlier, the 3rd was his best district any-
where in the state.
The majority of the vote is cast in the
Maricopa County suburbs west of Phoenix.
Glendale and Sun City, an affluent retire-
ment community, are among the most im-
portant towns politically. Both produce
mammoth Republican majorities. Political
organizations among the retirees in Sun
City contribute to turnouts of 90 percent or
higher in congressional elections.
Moving west. the 3rd takes in northern
Yuma County, a sparsely populated moun-
tainous area whose residents generally take
a Republican point of view. Much of this
portion of the county is occupied by a
national wildlife refuge and an Army prov-
ing ground.
Residents of the northernmost portion
of Yuma County moved to set up their own
local government in June 1982, passing a
ballot initiative that transformed northern
Yuma into brand-new La Paz County. The
La Paz community of Quartzsite swells dur-
ing the winter, as travelers flock to take
advantage of the warm climate and rock and
mineral shows.
Mohave County, occupying the north-
western corner of the state, is home to three
North and West ? Glendale;
Flagstaff; Part of Phoenix
groups in constant political tension ? Indi-
ans. pinto Democrats in Kingman and Re-
publican retirees in Lake Havasu City. The
county ? evenly split between Democrats
and Republicans ? has been close in recent
statewide elections.
To the east lies Coconino County.
where partisan sentiments are mixed. The
northern end, near the Utah border, in-
cludes "the Arizona strip," a heavily Mor-
mon region that bears a staunch affinity for
the GOP. Sedona. a city at the county's
southern end, also votes Republican.
But old-time Democratic loyalties per-
sist in Flagstaff, the seat of Coconino
County and the commercial center of north-
ern Arizona. Among Flagstaff's leading in-
dustries are lumber, mining and tourism ?
which is spurred by the proximity of ski
resorts as well as the Grand Canyon to the
north and the Oak Creek Canyon to the
south.
A drive through Oak Creek Canyon
brings one to Yavapai County. a mountain-
ous area that includes ancient Indian ruins
and ghost mining towns. The county centers
on Prescott, the former territorial capital
that hosted the first session of the Arizona
Legislature in 1864. Yavapai was the only
county in the state to vote for Republican
Pete Dunn over Democratic Sen. Dennis
DeConcini in the incumbent's race for re-
election in 1982.

Though he is nearly as conservative on
economic issues as on defense and foreign pol-
icy. Stump bends noticeably when it comes to
protecting his state's water interests. When the
Carter administration tried to impose on West-
ern landowners the stringent federal water con-
trols of a long-ignored 1902 law. Stump simply
introduced a bill to repeal major portions of the
law. That bill never went anywhere: a compro-
mise on the issue was finally reached after
several years of dispute.
Although not generally a supporter of wil-
derness designation for public lands, Stump
introduced the Arizona Strip Wilderness Act in
1983, saying it assured a sufficient role for
development and was "an example of business
interests and environmental concerns working
together." When this bill was folded into the
larger Arizona Wilderness Act in 1983, Stump
unsuccessfully opposed it, arguing that a grow-
ing state could not afford to put "unreasonable

Bob Stump, R-Ariz.
Stump said his decision would not cost him
any significant support in either party. He was
right. The middle-class retirees who have
flocked to this Sun Belt territory in recent
years brought their Republican voting habits
along. and the conservative rural Democrats
who traditionally have formed the core of
Stump's constituency proved willing to move
across the aisle with him. Stump coasted to
victory with 63 percent of the vote, the only
House incumbent to switch and survive the
fight in 1982.
He has since tightened his grip on the 3rd.
After polling nearly three-quarters of the dis-
trict vote in 1984. Stump was unopposed in
1986.
The ease with which Stump made the
transition owes a lot to his roots as a "pinto"
Democrat, a conservative of the type that dom-
inated state politics before the postwar popula-
tion boom. A cotton farmer with roots in rural
Arizona, Stump served 18 years in the state
Legislature and rose to the presidency of the
state Senate during the 1975-76 session. When
GOP Rep. Sam Steiger tried for the U.S. Sen-
ate in 1976. Stump ran for his House seat.
In the 1976 Democratic primary, he de-
feated a more liberal. free-spending opponent.
former Assistant State Attorney General Sid
Rosen. Stump drew 31 percent to Rosen's 25
percent, with the rest scattered among three
others. In the fall campaign, Stump's GOP
opponent was fellow state Sen. Fred Koory. the
Senate minority leader. Stump wooed conser-
vative Democrats by attacking his party's vice
presidential nominee, Walter F. Mondale. He
was helped in the election by the candidacy of
state Sen. Bill McCune. a Republican who ran
as an independent and drained GOP votes
away from Koory.

Talking Points for DCI Meeting on the Persian Gulf
6 May 1988
The Persian Gulf has remained relatively quiet since the US-
Iranian clash last month. Nonetheless, Tehran has attempted to
instigate terrorist operations against US targets in Pakistan and
Afghanistan and has maintained terrorist and political pressure on
the Gulf states, especially Saudi Arabia.
Iraq has not successfully attacked a ship for more than six
weeks, but its warplanes continue to fly ship attack missions
in search of targets. Iran has attacked only one during that
period.
Iranian forces are maintaining a low profile, but Tehran's
rhetorical stance has hardened somewhat following the
announced expansion of the US protection policy.
Iranian small boats were active in the northern Gulf last
weekend probably conducting operations against Iraqi early
warning stations rather than preparing to lay mines or conduct
ship attacks.
however, that Iranian
Revolutionary Guard naval forces were planning additional
minelaying operations soon in the southern Gulf.
Iran is likely to respond to any successful Iraqi ship attacks
by resuming strikes on vulnerable merchant ships and oil
platforms in the southern Gulf.
We believe Iranian military forces are unlikely to seek
further confrontations with US forces, but the risk of clashes
may be greater now that the US has expanded its protection
policy to include ships other than the 11 reflagged tankers.
In a speech on 4 May, Assembly Speaker Rafsanjani said that
despite the new US protection policy, Iran will continue to
retaliate for Iraqi ship attacks and warned that if the US
continues "its tension-making policies, Iran will be forced to
deliver blows" at US interests.

-- The forewarning may prevent these attacks, but we expect
terrorism to continue to be a key Iranian weapon against the
United States.
-- Khomeini remains silent, suggesting he is either too ill for a
public appearance or that the regime is bewildered about how
the Ayatollah is to deal with the twin Iranian setbacks in the
Gulf and at Al Faw. Iranian media have noted the Iraqi attack
at Al Faw but have not yet reported the Iranian retreat.
-- With so many problems closing in on Iran at once, and with its
options narrowing, we believe Tehran will continue to look for
ways to demonstrate Iran's resiliency and its continued
ability to punish its adversaries. Top Iranian leaders
continue to warn that th United states faces increased danger
of Iranian retaliation. 25X1
Saudi Arabia and Kuwait remain prime targets of Iranian anger
and frustration.
The break in diplomatic ties demonstrates a new willingness by
the Saudis to stand up to Iran, but the action will certainly
aggravate tensions with Tehran. It dramatically increases the
likelihood of serious disruptions by Iran or its surrogates at
the Hajj celebrations in mid-July and could well lead to an
even higher level of terrorism against Saudi targets.
Riyadh believes that Iran already is orchestrating a terrorist
and sabotage campaign against Saudi interests. Since March,
six overseas offices of Saudia Airlines have been bombed and
three explosions have occurred at Riyadh's oil facilities in
the Eastern Province, probably carried out by pro-Iranian
Shias.
-- The Saudis are deeply concerned over the continuing Iranian
attacks on Saudi shipping; more than half (17) of the 30 ships
Iran has attacked since January were involved in trade with
Saudi Arabia.
-- Iran will attempt to exploit the break in relations to widen
the differences within the GCC on how to deal with Tehran.
The Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister's visit to the UAE this
weekend apparently was the opening move. Iranian First Deputy
