fey! 14 way, 1n .,.re. a - er.. a minis-
tration, -he: ;.vas `appointed deputy
'? director for operations, making him
chief of CIA covert activities.
Last April, Casey named a polit-
ical crony, Max Hugel, as deputy
director for operations and McMa-
hon hon took over as the director of the
agency's National Foreign Assess-
went Center, an important position
in which he was responsible for the
production of finished intelligence.
On July 14, Hugel was forced tc
resign in the wake of reports that ht
had engaged in questionable stock
amarket dealings' Ever since, some
members of the Sen ate 'Intelligence
`Committee, led by Chairman Barry-
.CzpId'water (R-Ariz.), have- been
.openly questioning Casey's judgment!
and abilities.
McMahon has he reputation in
the CIA as being an extremely com-
petent technician. Nonetheless, he
will have big-shoes to fill in his new
assignment. Inman, also well qualified techni-
cally, enjoyed 'an unusual measure of
bipartisan confidence in Congress,
and is given credit both in the CIA
and outside of it for helping to re-
store the image of an agency that''
was badly damaged by the diselo-
surer of the-Vietnam and Watergate
years. Beforejoining the CLA, Inmar
yas director of the. National Security'
Agency ':
Inman's presence in the No., 2
spot throughout the Reagan adrrri
istration helped to quiet persistent
congressional concerns about Casey.
:Unless McMahon can take bver this
role, there is likely to be; renewed
demand from senators krowie age-
able in intelligence matters that.>tea-
gan find himself a new CIA director.

MORTON DEAN: CBS News has learned that the White House
plans to name John McMahon, a career CIA officer with a low public

Admiral Bobby Inman, who announced his resignation from he number
two spot last week.
Inman, among other things, was reported unhappy about a
possible reorganization of counterintelligence operations. Inman's
resignations made many members of Congress unhappy. And coupled
with their unhappiness with CIA Director William Casey, it Is
uncertain whether McMahon will have confirmation problems, even
though Mc.1ahon himself has no known opponents in Congress.

JACK ANDERSON: CIA Deputy Director Bobby Inman has
resigned from the agency. Congress Is saying privately that
the wrong man is leaving.
Here is the Inside Story?
Admiral Bobby Inman, Deputy Director of the Centr.i l
Intelligence Agency resigned this week. But let me tell you
what the congressmen are saying in the cloakrooms. The prevailing
view is that his boss, CIA Director William Casey should be he
one to leave.
Inman was the only CIA officials who senators truEted.
He was often specifically requested to give closed door briEfings.
You see, Casey has little credibility on Capitol Fill.
Under his leadership the CIA has lost the respect of Congress.
Inman was a personal exception.
One intelligence committee source told me, I am quoting?
Inman was the man everybody wanted to talk to.
Now they don't have a guy in that position to trust...
Inman and Casey had policy differences. They disaggreed,
for example, over the CIA's role in domestic spying. Inman hought
it was wrong for the CIA to spy on American citizens at home,

,,At that,:., Goldwater raised his
hand, as though wielding a dagger,
then added: "But we do it differently
now and he is not a pro."
At his news conference, Lugar
noted that Goldwater and 'others
had hoped to see Inman appointed
to the top job at CIA: He was named
instead to the second spot, which he
reluctantly agreed to take after serving as- director 'of the National Se-
curity Agency. In any 'event, Lugar
emphasized:
"Many of .us voted for Casey and
Inman-as a package," meaning that
they.. supported Casey because Pres-
ident Reagan wanted him and felt
comfortable with him and Inmap, a
intelligence professional of 30 years,
"because -he -knows- more-than -any,

congressional investigations of 1975-

.He said he had noquarrel with
the CIA director's being "a political

'HEN A CAREER intelligence officer relinntiishes hoth .,
avowed desire to "move onto fresh challenges." When that resig='- ff
nation is accepted by .President Reagan with "deep regret" -
.-the, prescribed nod to "leadership and wise'counsel," the doubt
grows. When the name of the retiree turns out to be Aden. Bobby
R. Inman, the suspicions are confirmed.
Adm. Inman had dubious qualifications for the post of dep4y
director of the CIA in the Reagan -administration - years of
specialization in intelligence work.. He. was deputy to (.IA
Director William J. Casey, whose superior qualification for that
post was his' yeoman service as. manager of Ronald Reagan's
campaign for the presidency. '.:. -
When Senate investigations of Mr. Casey's checkered financial
past threatened last year to disclose how inappropriate it was to
place him in. such a sensitive position, several senators made
clear that they thought Adm.. Inman was the ideal man for the
helm of the CIA. The White House made it clear at that time that
if. Mr. Casey had to go, the admiral not only would not get the
directorship but also would be forced out.
..-
~- That subtle persuasion worked. The Senate investigators
yielded with the less than ringing endorsement that Mr. Casey
was not unfit to serve. Mr. Casey stayed and so did Adm. Inman,
but-not for long. He had some peculiar ideas that did not endear
him to his bosses at headquarters in McLean, Va.., and at 1600
Pennsylvania Ave.
He believed, for instance, that the strict rules that controlled
domestic surveillance of American citizens by the CIA were a -
reasonable guarantee of civil liberties. His bosses decided, as,
they have done elsewhere, that civil liberties are an unnecessary,
inconvenience that can be compromised as long as it is'done in,'
the name of national security Inman's loyalty -prompted him to defend in Congress
policies with which he was clearly uncomfortable. Despite Mr..
Casey's description of their association. as a good working rela-
tionship, the opposite was obvious to members of Congress as
well as employees at the CIA. As an intelligence officer, Adm.
Inman was no stranger to the intrigue of espionage.. He had,
however, in his own words, a "steadily diminishing tolerance,+or
petty bureaucratic intrigue." - ' .
Happily for. the petty bureaucrats but unhappily for the
American people, the reasons for the loss of -Adm. Inman 'S
experience and ability are unlikely to be known. Thanks to the
wisdom of the bureaucrats and the wholehearted endorsement
of the Supreme Court, Adm. Inman is free to write anything he
4 wishes about his experiences in government service. He will,
of course, have to submit it to Mr. Casey for screening before
publication. We wouldn't want him compromising national sec:i-
tity,,now, would we?

SUBJECT Schorr t s Commentary on Inman
SANFORD UNGAR: Admiral Bobby Inman, the former Director
of the National Security Agency announced yesterday that he is
retiring as Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
Inman, who is 51-years old says he wants to work in the
private sector, so he will also retire from the Navy.
Inman was regarded by many people in the Regaai Administ-
ration to be too moderate but commentator Daniel Schorr ays there
may be other reasons for the Adtiralts decision.
DAN I Et_ SCHORR: His objections to CIA spying a-- home into
hastily conceived covert operations abroad may have made Admiral
Inman seem too liberal for a right-wing Administration. But more
to the point was his defense of professionalism against he harness-
ing of Intelligence to ideological purposes.
Inman opposed a Reagan executive order easing restraints
on domestic surveillance and breakins less from scruples about civil
liberties than a conviction that an intelligence agency functions
better under professional discipline.
More recently he was fighting a National 'Security Council
plan to elevate counterintelligence into a separate, centralized
agency.
Inman was appalled to find that an avowedly secirity
conscious Administration had no compunction about leaking sensitive
intelligence information for political- and ideological reasons.

Washington-Adm. -- Hobby ? R.
Inman resigned as deputy director of
central intelligence yesterday, ex-
changing cordial letters with Presi-
dent Reagan that an informed official
said cloaked differences with the cur-
rent system. In a telephone interview, however,
Admiral Inman said reports that poli-
cy disagreements prompted his
departure were "really not valid.
Somebody's trying to make a good
story that's not there.... I've had my
;hare of bureaucratic battles.... I'vei
won more than my share-I'm not:
stomping off angry."
In his letter of resignation, re-
leased by the White House, Admiral
Inman, 51, praised Mr. Reagan's ac-
tions to strengthen the intelligence
system. In turn, Mr. Reagan accepted
the resignation with "deep regret".
and* thanked the admiral for his
achivements in a 30-year Navy ca-
reer-most of it in intelligence work. -
Admiral Inman said he also will
resign his Navy commission unless he
receives another active-duty assign-
ment, which "I do not anticipate." He
would remain until a successor is con-
firmed by the Senate, he said-he
hoped by the end of next month.
He took the job as deputy director
"reluctantly" last year, the admiral
recalled, and he believed that "the-
initial challenge has now been met."
One report said he will enter private
business, where his expertise in high
technology presumably would be in
great demand.
The admiral indicated that he had
hoped to leave government service
and start a second career when he left
his job as head of the National Securi-
ty Agency and was persuaded, in-
stead, to take the CIA job in the Rea-
gan administration.
"When I was leaving the NSA job,
I'd had a super time (like) running a
large corporation. It was fun and I
thought that was the right time to
transfer to a new life-style," said the
admiral, who ran that supersecret
code and surveillance agency for four
years.
"My arm was twisted, that's no se-
cret, to help the new administration
to get itself organized. rt c8) I

commitment that they would set out
to do a long-range rebuilding pro-,
grain. That's been done. The plan has
been endorsed . ..,the money and peo-
ple are beginning to flow-"
As in Admiral Inman's personal
explanation, there was no hint of ill
feeling in the formal exchange with
the president. But an official who
watches the intelligence community
closely said Admiral Inman "did not
see eye to eye" with William J. Casey,
who - as director of central intelli-
gence and head of the Central Intelli-
gence Agency is his boss.
This source and others with the
same view were unable to give exam
pies, however. One said merely that
Mr. Casey allowed Admiral Inman to
take responsibility for mistakes and
retained credit for himself.
"Have I had various bureaucratic
disagreements?" Admiral Inman
asked, echoing an interviewer's ques-
tion. "The answer is absolutely yes.".
But, he went on, "in most cases" they'
were resolved in good working rela-
tionships. Asked about his boss at the
CIA, Mr.. Casey, Admiral Inman
roplied, "Ours is a cordial relation=
ship."
The admiral said his plans are
open, adding that he had been plan-
ning his departure since last month.
"I sent the letter off in March to get
them off the dime to address the fact
that this summer I really want to do
fresh things.... It was time to get on
with my second career."
The admiral is a great favorite
with Congress, having received Sen-(
ate confirmation last yea; by a 94-0 f
vote. His self-effacing, tact-loaded
briefings have been praise[ by liber-
als and conservatives alike:
Early last year, his testimony be-
fore the Senate Intelligence Commit
tee defused concern over reported ad-
ministration plans to authorize CIA
spying on American citizens and con-
duct covert operations in the United
States. The admiral made it clear,
Senator Daniel Patrick ;Moynihan. (D,
N.Y.) reported, that ".the job of the
CIA is abroad." l
After that, the guidelines for intel-
ligence activity went through several
drafts, finally emerging in Ian execu-
tive order by Mr- Reagan in Decem-'
.ber 4. The long document fact au-
thorized intelligence agencies to col-
lect information at home a, d the IA

-It broadened the activiti permit

President Carter. But it dirt tut go as.
-far as some Reagan adm istration
officials had proposed in ea ? drafts;
The order says that the iomestic
activities must not be "inte ed to in-
fluence
United States political
processes, public opinion, alicies or
media, and do not include olomatici
activities." They must be xorted to
the intelligence committe s of both
houses of Congress.
There was some concer that Ad-
miral Inman's absence ma result in''i
the guidelines being tighten' d again:
Senator Joseph R. Eiden, Jr D, Del.),
was quoted last night as, sa ling that
"without him, the intellige'ne agen-
cies may be given license f , try all
kinds of questionable thing here and
abroad."
At 51, Admiral Inman Darks even
younger. His career was meteoric, es-
pecially since he graduated sot from
the Naval Academy but from the Uni-
versity of Texas, in 1950, as reserve
officer.
Most of his career has ben in in-..
telligence, more recently v, ith em-
phasis on high technology. It was the
prime consideration in his work as di-
rector of the National Security Agen-.

CIA's Deputy Director Inman is Quitting
In Apparent Flap Over Domestic.Soyi
~
By Gsa,u.n F. SsIB
WASHINGTON-Bobby Inman is- resign-
ing as deputy director of the Central Intelli-
gence Agency? a. move that. government
sources believe- was prompted by,a dispute
over plans for domestic. intelligence activi-
ties.
The CIA yesterday sent .congressionai-
committees :a message . saying President
Reagan "regretted". that Adm. Inman is re-
signing frown the agency, and retiring from
the Navy. -The message said Adm. Inman
was quitting to "enter the private sector."
White House officials insisted that- Adm.
Inman, who .is highly regarded in Congress
and the U.S. hitelligence community, had in-
tended to quit after the Reagan administra-
lion had been in office about 18 months. But
congressional aides and other officials say
his departure seemed to be prompted by a
disagreement with other administration offi-
cials over how to conduct counterintelli-
gence operations in the U.S.
The sources said.Adm. Inman objected to
a new directive the White House approved
on counterintelligence operations. He report-
edly felt the new procedures allowed intelli-
gence agencies to get too heavily involved in
spying activities hi -the U.S. Also, sources
said, he was ` miffed- because the White
use didn't' allow him a greater voice in
shaping the intelligence procedures.
Last year, Adm. Inman battled with
White House officials over the wording of a
broader executive order governing all intel-
ligence activities?gomplaining that It would
allow-the CIA tc conduct-operations against
U.S. citizens. The order was held up for
months and eventually was modified to
overcome most of his objections.
The departure of Adm..: Inman is sure to
create problems- for the administration in
Congress. Many- influential lawmakers hold
him, ire higher esteem than they do CIA Di-
rector William Casey, and they hoped Adm.
Inman eventually would move to the CIA's
top position.
Some of the congressional clamoring for
Mr. Casey's resignation. during a Senate in-
vestigation , -of,_,his. finances last year
stemmed from a desire for Adm. Inman to
move up. Lawmakers have contended that
they get a clearer picture of CIA activities
from Adm. Inman than from Mr. Casey. . -
'Administration aides said they hadn't yet
begun to consider a replacement for Adm.
Inman. He plans to remain in his post until
a successor is named,- - probably early this
summer, administration officials said. i'
Despite the congressional suspicions of a
high-level.-,- disagreement,- administration
aides contended that there weren't any bu-
reaucratic battles that led to Adm. Inman's
resignation. They noted -that he had - been
tempted to take a job-in business last year
and'had to be persuaded to take. the CIA
post in the first place. e:: ; ?.:.; .;
At `that time, Adm. Inman ? complained
that he- could make far more money- by ac-
cepting lucrative private-sector jobs than lie
could by remaining in government service.
To persuade him to take the CIA job, Presi-
dent Reagan agreed to promote him to full
admiral from rear admiral, making him the
first naval intelligence specialist to reach
that rank.
Before taking the CIA job.. Adm. Inman
had been director of the National Security
Agency, a secretive Pentagon organization
that monitors radio and satellite communi-
cations; earlier, he was director of naval
intelligence.
After taking the CIA post, Adm. Inman
confided to associates that he found It diffi-
cult to serve as No. 2 man after directing
the NSA. Some intelligence officials specu-
lated earlier that Adm. Inman might look
for another job if it seemed that Mr. Casey
wasn't stepping aside soon. - - - . -
Adm. -Inman has been handling much of
the day-to-day operations of the CIA, intelli-
gence officials said. Mr. Casey has focused
more on-coordinating the- activities of the
CIA-and;=other U.S. -intelligence organiza--
lions and hasdevoted_a gee it deal of time ti?
his duties as-a member of the Cabinet. Past
CIA directors.'haven't begin :Cabinet mem-
bers. Adra. Inman has been stressing that the
focus more on internationaleconorriic issues
rather than merely I4>litical and military is-
sues. For instance, a -envy analysts recently
began compiling fo erasts of global eco
nomic problems in tt:e next decade or so.
The administration is likely to look for a
il
m
itary officer to tare Adm. Inmap.'s place.:
The No. 2 post at t'ie CIA customarily is
filled by 'a military cffiriat if a civilian has
the top post.

The resignation was greeted with dis .
may on -Capitol Hill where Inman was
much more popular, among both Repub-
licans and Democrats,, than Casey. In
fact, Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.) and,
others made it plain immediately' after-

he assured a Senate committee that his

in Washington today: why Admiral Bobby Inman is quittinr; as

Admiral Resigning
DIANE SAWYER: Surprise and dismay are the reacl-ions
in Washington to the word that Admiral Bobby Inman Is resicning
as the Deputy Director of the CIA and ending his 30-year ::areer
in the Navy. Inman is widely considered this country's b-'st-
professional spy.
Robert Schakne reports on the public and privat com-
ments about his departure.
ROBERT SCI-IAKNE: Admiral Inman has told associates he's
resigning partly for personal financial reasons. With children
nearing college age, he plans to take a job in the privat: sector.
But Inman has also told associates he does not enjoy being number
two to CIA Director William Casey. He and Casey have not always
agreed. And-Inman Is well aware that a number of senator, and
congressmen think that he, and-not Casey, should be runniiq the
agency.
His resignation letter suggests he'd stay on with a
better government. job. He's retiring, he wrote the President,
"in the absence of another active duty assignment, which do not
anticipate.'''
Admiral Inman has had his share of public diffe-ence~
with the White House national security staff. A year ago, when
the White House drew up proposed new guidelines putting t1e CIA
Into domestic intelligence gathering, Inman called.the pr)posals
repugnant, and he threatened to quit.
Inman is a favorite among members of congressio.ial
intelligence committees.

Deputy Director of the CIA Resigns
FRANK REYNOLDS: A major change tonight in the American
intelligence community. The White House announced that fdmiral
Bobby Inman, Deputy Director of the CIA, has resigned. Inman
maintains his retirement was long planned. But there is more to
the story. And we have this report from White House correspondent
Sam Donaldson.
SAM DONALDSON: The White House has been sitting on
Admiral Inman's letter of resignation since March 22nd. That's
the day It's dated. In it, the Admiral recalls for the P-esident
that he reluctantly accepted the job of Deputy Director of Central
Intelligence in the first place. And he says, pointedly, that
he's requesting retirement from military service because '.ie doesn't
expect to get another assignment. And, in fact, the Pres;dent
doesn't offer him one in his "Dear Bob" letter accepting T-he resig-
nation with deep regret.
The fact is, Admiral Inman clearly opposed much of the
Reagan Administration's push for renewed CIA surveillance of
American citizens and for its push for relaxed oversight cf CIA
activities. The Reagan Administration, in turn, never reEily
looked at Admiral Inman as one of its team players. Last year,'
when Senator Goldwater and others tried to force CIA Director
Casey out, the White House quietly passed word that Inman would
never succeed Casey, no matter what.
So Inman, who was widely respected in the intelligence
community, both here and overseas, and by journalists who cover
intelligence activities, has'resigned. IHis letter of resignation,
dated March 22nd, finally released because, according to Deputy
Press Secretary Larry Speakes, Inman wanted it out.
