Chile's need for outside aid *ay well extend to mapping topo--
graphic changes . However, there are ne .tive factors that bear o, 7
the proposed use of the U-2 for such mapping.
. Securing aerial photography is only the b ginning of a
operation. Chile also ;ticks the equipment and trained, ye-
ceded to use large amounts of aerial photography. The 1.
would have to backstop all aspects of map cosaiailaties. The aircraft
used, would thus be only one part of a larger public relations pie.
2. On U-2 is not the proper aircraft to use for photo a a pp
Chilean - -- d areas. There is no special need for high flying
the U-2 could thus be called gra ndstardi ,
and the U.S. might be legitimately criticised on the ground that its
sit was generated by self- interest.
