This would authorize the construction or rehabilitation of five units of housing, a communications fa- cility and other related items for the . chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff and four of his assistants. At the present time all of the Chiefs of Staff are provided with adequate housing. For example, the Commandant of the Marine Corps has some 15,000 square feet in his house. while Admiral Radford's house is some- thing a little over 3,000 square feet. These buildings are to be erected on land adjacent to the Naval Observatory. Now, in addition to that, It is recom- mended here that $56 million be made available to the Central Intelligence Agency to establish a permanent build- ing to house its activities. There are a great number of people employed by the Central Intelligence Agency here in the District of Columbia, and they are being housed in some 33 or more buildings. Mr. Dulles, the head of the Central In- telligence Agency, feels that being housed In many units, as they are, jeopardizes the security that is required. Now, you know what the Central Intelligence Agency is. So, we provide here an au- thorization of $56 million for land and a building. Mr. GROSS. Mr. Chairman, will the gentleman yield? Mr. VINSON. I yield to the gentle- man from Iowa. Mr. GROSS. Are these buildings for the Central Intelligence Agency, esti- mated to cost $50 million, to be con- structed within 30 or 35 miles of the District of Columbia? Can the gentle- man tell me? Mr. VINSON. During the hearings Mr. Dulles designated certain places. Some were outside the District of Co- lumbia. But, he did feel that it was absolutely essential, in view of the char- acter of the work he does, to be within reasonable distance of the District of Columbia. I would say 35 to 40 miles from the District or probably more, but that was the line of testimony. rt that committee did with this bill, We worked 6 long weeks, and read every item. line by line, in order to approve this pro7 posed atithorization of $2,369.000,000. .

I want to draw your attention to the table set out on page 21 of the report, which contains every installation at which there is a Wherry project and at which housing would be constructed under this bill. If you will look at the last column you will see that in every Instance, even after taking into consid- eration every conceivable kind of hous- ing, there still is a large deficit at those installations. Of course, the second last column in- dicates only about 4,500 housing unite to be constructed at these bases. The whole bill contains about 17,000 units, but these other houses are to be con- structed at bases where there is no Wherry housing. Last year Congress authorized 11,600 family housing units. This bill, as I saY, will authorize about 17,000 units. They will vary in cost, with the overall aver- age in the United States being $13,480. Of these 17,000 houses, 3,500 represent replacements of quarters that can no longer be lived in. Five thousand two hundred and seventy-one are for officers. and 11,700 are for enlisted men. All of this housing will be of perma- nent construction and located for the most part at permanent installations.

Mr. Chairman, I j guidance to CIA modeled on that which (Roll No. 071 am voting "present" on the rollcall on R. 6829, authorizing construction for .the military departments and the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency. To me, this is the only sound position open because. I have not been able to find in the extensive hearings and the report the facts I feel I need in order to pass on this $2.36 billion authoriza- tion for the purchase of more real estate by the Department of Defense, which al- ready holds properties costing more than $24.8 billion with some of it being carried at ridiculously low acquisition costs. This holding comprises 61 percent of the acquired real property of the United States Government. In addition, the Department of Defense leases 190 loca- tions including 1,983,686 acres for which it pays an annual rental of $19,697,000. I cannot say that the armed services do not need every facility provided in the bill before us today?but, after reading the hearings, I do have some rea- sonable doubts. Neither can I say that the armed services do need these facili- ties and this land in every case. In the brief of authorizations, under title I, the Army lists $223,993,000, or 40 percent, of its construction authoriza- tions as "classified." The Navy, under title II, lists $151,342,400, or about 25 percent of its construction funds as "classified." I am pleased that the Air Force seems more detailed and forth- right in its justifications throughout and does not hide behind the term "classi- fied" for projects most of which are being built right here in the United States, where all our citizens can observe daily the steam shovels, bulldozers, and steel- workers working on the projects so care- fully "classified" from Congress. I have been unable to discover just what is the construction included in title IV for the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Evidently this $300,000 did not appear in the original H. R. 5700 as in-, troduced by the gentleman from Georgia [Mr. Vnisoal, at least not in title IV where it is now. Is this a house for Admiral Radford? Is it an elite housing project to provide for his per- sonal staff, too? How many facilities can you provide for an admiral for $300,- 000. I am not saying that this is neces- sarily either an unwise or an unjustified expenditure; I would just like to know what it is for and what we get for the money. Such items as "Chairman, JCS, $300.000," do not explain to me what use is to be made of the taxpayers' money any more than I can be completely satis- fied with general phrases such as "Op- erational and maintenance facilities," "Community' facilities." and "Storage facilities," as justifications for the ex- penditure of billions of dollars. I do not know whether the CIA needs a $6 million building site and a $50 million building, or not. I do not know or have any idea of how many employees CIA now has. I do not know what they do or to whom they are really accountable. Perhaps if I knew these things I would want to increase the CIA construction authorization, but I guess I will never know. Perhaps those of us. in Congress will, someday, create a Joint Committee on Intelligence to provide congressional the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy has developed in its field.

The Committee on Armed Services de- Andersen, serves due credit for their application and diligent work on this piece of legis-' lation. The hearings total 4,091 pages. accumulated in approximately 50 hours and 25 minutes of on-the-record hear- ings spread over 21 days. Rapidly cal- culating, I estimate that the committee considered this authorization at about the rate of $789,666 per minute of open hearing time, an evidence of unusual efficiency especially when you consider that their considerations ranged from Alaska to the Midway Islands including the British West Indies, the Canal Zone, Cuba, French Morocco, Hawaii, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Johnson Island, Mariana Islands, and the Marshall Islands in be- tween. Without being able to tell what went on in the off-the-record hearings, one can wish the Army and Navy had justified their requests as forthrightly as the Air Force. The Army will be authorized $551;- 105,000 in this bill as contrasted with $236 million granted in fiscal 1955?an Increase of over 100 percent. The Navy will be authorized $596,140,900 in this bill to accomplish public works as compared with about $202 million for fiscal 1955, an increase of well over 100 percent. The Air Force will be authorized $1,165,- 456,000 in this bill, an'increase of more than 300 percent over last year's author- ization of $398,954,000. Is this too much, or is it too little?. Can we use this real estate instead of ' weapons against an enemy? I just do not know. On the basis of the informa- tion furnished me I have no Way -Cif? reaching a sensible conclusion. So, I voted "Present." . . The CHAIRMAN. Under the rule the - Committee rises. ? ' Accordingly the Committee rose, and the Speaker having resumed the chair, Mr. litxrcazr, Chairman of the Commit- tee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, reported that that Committee having had under consideration the bill (H.

Mr. President, I wish to take this oppor- tunity' to thank the distinguished mem- Lers of the Senate conference commit- tee on defense appropriations for their successful efforts which resulted in the preservation of funds for the Marine Corps, It means that the Marine Corps will be able to keep itself in trim shape and be ready, as it has in the past, to defend our Nation in time of emergency. I feel that this is a major victory for national defense, and, while my feelings on this matter are well known, I wish again to thank the distinguished mem- bers of the conference committee, and especially the distinguished Senator from Georgia (Mr. RussEW. I believe this action will prove in the future to be very beneficial to our na- tional defense.

Mr. Presi- dent, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the unfinished business. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tern- pore. Without objection, the Chair lays 140. 312-2 The Senate resumed the consideration of the bill (H. R. 68291 to authorize cer- tain construction at military, naval, and ? Air Force installations, and for, other. purposes. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tin pore. The question Is on agreeing to the committee amendment, which is in the nature of a complete substitute for the bill. Mr. STENNIS. Mr. President, the Senate is considering the so-called mili- tary construction bill for the budget year 1956. The purpose of the bill is to authorize construction by the military departments and the Central Intelligence Mena in a total amount of $2,357,313,300. This authorization is distributed $527,027,000 for the Army; $571,620,300 for the Navy; $1,205,170,000 for the Air Force; and $53,500,000 for the Central Intellipnce, rinvite attention of Senators L?he fact that the committee report contains a breakdown by States and by military department of the authoriza- tions contained in this bill. The bill as introduced at the request of the Depart- ment of Defense totalled $2,354,352,300. However, subsequent to the bill's intro- duction, the Department requested amendments increasing the authoriza- tion by some ;41 million. These amend- ments were for the purposes of providing additional facilities to accommodate the Increased production of B-52's recently approved by the Congress, and to provide facilities for a new technique in air de- fense. Thus, despite the fact that the committee has made changes in the bill, our reductions unfortunately have been largely obscured by the addition of the authorizations requested after the bill was introduced. In round figures, the pending bill as now presented is $28 million under the total budget estimate submitted, and $11 million, in round figures, under the bill as it passed the House. The reductions and additions made by the committee are set forth in the com- mittee report. in summary form at the end of the title to which they pertain. At the conclusion of my statement, I shall be glad to discuss any item in which any Senator is particularly interested. In the Army title, $160 million, or 30 percent of the program, is for continu- ing the antiaircraft facilities commonly known as nike sites. Sixty-four million dollars is for troop housing and troop support facilities. Eighty-eight million dollars is for family housing, $38 mil- lion is for land acquisiton. Twenty-six million dollars is to continue construc- tion in Alaska and Okinawa, two of our most important strategic areas today. The remaining authorization, apprgx,irs mately 30 percent of the total, is intended, to provide facilities for research and deu" velopment, training, community facili- ? ties, medical facilities, and other miscel- laneous requirements. The Navy title, which totals $571 mil] lion, constitutes another step in the pro gram to keep the Navy's shore establislei,-? ment adequate to service its ships, alfi" craft, and weapons. Approximately sawmill itY Docapieui Ner which means barrackkaiidtachelor.offi-i? Hon. Family housing iiiikes up $56 lion of the total. The remainder of the, Navy program Is for, land acquisitions, research and development, ' training' fit: cillties, the acquisition of aViga,t1911.4,eas, ments around naval air Stations;,"a:poll tion abatement program, and 10 We and recreational facilities.c?

There are two new '13sist in the Air Force program. One..it? Buckingham Weapons Center in Florida and the other a new Air Defense baSeIn the Milwaukee, Wis., area. As has been true in recent years, the Strategic Air Command gets a lion's share of the Air Force authorization. Viewing the pro- gram from categories of construction, airfield pavements is by far the largest Item. Title IV of the bill authorizes the con-, . struction of a headquarters installation for the Central Intelligence Agency. I believe it is widely recognized, in Con- gress at least, that the Central Intelll- gence Agency is scattered among several temporary buildings in Washington, and that It could operate more effectively and economically in buildings designed to suit its requirements. There is local opposition to some of the items in this bill, principally those? pertaining to land acquisition. The committee has afforded everyone who ad- vised us of his desire to do so, an op- portunity to testify. Committee action on the more controversial items is sum- marized in the committee report on page 11. Some of our decisions were diffi- cult ones and we claim no infallibility. We have, however, exercised our best ' judgment, bearing in mind the require- ments of national defense and the views of the persons most directly affected by our actions. Of special significance, I think, is the housing authorization contained in this bill. Scattered throughout titles 1, II, and III are authorizations for the con- struction of almost 17,000 units of mill- tary family housing. In the realization that this request constitutes only a small part of the requirements for family hous- ing, these authorizations have been left virtually intact. In approving this authorization, we have not been un- ndful of the military housin 1- VindiMititothe cers quarters, constant:44 Otit c p bill Vo ovi e $1 thbtYlbig V krantge m nun ttee ? Senate.

The church and hat if something of file utmost importance, omething involving the very life and death of our country had to be accomplished, then he question of financial cost was not to be considered at all. Thus, when it was de- cided to create an atomic bomb?even though no one was certain that it could be achieved?we did not hesitate to spend what was then, and still is, the astronomical sum of $2 billion. We said then, and we say now, that whatever the cost, it was worth it. Something of the same spirit animated the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis when it embarked upon its dramatic pro- gram to stamp out this horrible disease. Untold millions of dollars were spent and will continue to be spent until this scourge is completely eliminated from the world. Who will say that its wasn't?and isn't?worth it? Some such crash program, it seems to me, is required if we are to win the war against juvenile delinquency, a disease which is even mode dreadful and more destructive than polio or any other physical ailment. Let us have more family counselors than we think we need. Let us build more and better schools and playgrounds than we think are necessary. Let us hire better teachers, more teachers and provide them with a wage to which they are entitled. Let us engage more youth directors than we believe we are going to need. The cost will go up into the hun- dreds of millions and billions of dollars, but who will say that it isn't worth it? At the present time juvenile delinquency is problem number one in America. It is in- finitely more serious than any other prob- lem which we are confronted. The very existence of our civilization depends upon its solution. It must be solved and it can be solved and it will be solved, when the citizens of our Nation become aware of the respon- sibilities devolving upon them. Yes, punish- ment is necessary when crimes are commit- ted, whether by juveniles or by adults. But that doesn't solve the problem. It is the delinquent society which creates delinquency that requires our attention. In the 21st chapter of the Book of Deuter- onomy a very strange procedure is described in connection with what is to take place when a slain person is found in a field and his murderer is unknown. The elders and the judges of the city nearest the spot where the body has been found are required to offer a sacrifice, wash their hands over it and then say, "Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it. Forgive, 0 Lord Thy people Israel, whom Thou had redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood to remain in the midst of Thy people Israel." In commenting on this unusual proceeding, one of the ancient rabbis asked: "Why is it that the good people, the re- spectable people, the elders and the judges are called upon to swear that their hands were guiltless of this crime? Why were not the cutthroats, the thieves, and the known criminals of the community made to swear that they did not perpetrate this crime?" To these rhetorical questions he provided the answer: "In order that we might always real- ize that not the bad people, but the good people are responsible for the evils of a community: the evils of life will disappear when the good folk assume the responsibili- ties which belong to them." Amen. the synagogue?when correctly understood t and used by the parents?can and do play a major role in the prevention of delin- quency. The house of God and the religious school must, however, not be regarded by parents as good places to which to send their children, but in which they have no personal interest. How naive can parents be- come when they say: "I sent them to church, didn't I? I sent them to Sunday school, didn't I? What kind of a church are you running? You must have a pretty bad Sun- day school if my children are turning out this way." Now, religious institutions, although they can be exceedingly effective and are effective in the training of character, cannot perform miracles. Such institutions can imbue the child with the highest concepts of morality and unselfishness only when his parents par- ticipate with him. Only then will the child consider these institutions important. Fourthly, the influence of the community Upon the child's growth and development. Good housing, it has been shown time and again, prevents delinquency. And rec- reational facilities, playgrounds and social centers, operated by trained personnel, are all unquestioned deterrents to delinquency. The work of youth organizations like the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, YMCA's, YWCA's, etc., all should be widely expanded so that more and more of our youth will come under their influence. The policy of ' the infiltration of street gangs by trained youth leaders that is being pursued by our own New York Youth Board is, to my mind, an excellent method of dealing with this problem. Yes, when the community influ- ences are favorable, the child has a better chance to be the kind of citizen that his parents and that the community at large would want him to be. Finally, it is Well known that the moral climate of a community has its effect upon the youth. Stories of corruption involving important Government officials, shady busi- ness practices, stories of easy money and of gangsters who are glorified and become he- roes, the effebt of unwholesome movies, comic books, TV programs are not without their Influence upon the young. Dr. Fine tells of a young thief who remarked to him: "Yes, I stole $150 from 'a gas station. So what? How much did Governor Hoffman steal from the people of New Jersey?" It is this attitude that is very easily developed in the minds of impressionable youth. "If they can do it, if they can get away with it, Why can't I?" I shall not go into the improvements that must be made in the various agencies deal- ing with our youth after they have become delinquent?the juvenile police officers, the juvenile courts, improved foster homes, de- tention homes, training schools, etc.?but desire merely to emphasize the need for im- proving those media which will prevent juve- nile delinquency, namely, the home, the school, the church and synagogue, the com- munity, the morale climate. To achieve this purpose, we Must stop thinking in terms of delinquent youth, but rather in terms of our delinquent society. We know the causes. We also know the cure. Our problem is not that we demand that something be done by someone else, but that We express our willingness to accept whatever responsibility devolves upon us as members of society and to make whatever financial sacrifices that may be necessary in order to build a finer, healthier, and more Worthy community life -for the young people of our country. No task confronting us is more important, none more essential to the well-being of our so- ciety. During the war a new expression, crash program, came into frequent use. It means Losing Trade in Latin America,' It goes on to state that Japan and Europe, in- cluding the Soviet bloc countries, are cutting into the trade of Latin America by offering lower prices and longer credit terms. This assertation was contained in a United Nation's report which reviewed the economy of the Latin America coun- tries for the year 1954. Mr. President, the Department of Commerce reveals that our trade with Latin America has dropped by almost $250 million in the past 2 years, and there is every indication that with our little attention to the affairs of the countries to the south of us, and in- creased attention on the part of the countries of Europe and the Soviet bloc countries that trade between Latin America and the United States will un- fortunately continue to fall off. Mr. President, I ask unanimous con- sent to have printed in the RECORD at this point the above-described article. There being no objection, the article was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,- as follows: UNITED STATES IS LOSING TRADE IN LATIN AMERICA LOSS OF UNITED STATES TRADE IN LATIN AMERICA Mr. SMATHERS. Mr. President, to those of us whb recognize the impor- tance of .the Latin Americtureountries to the economic well-being of our Nation, the article whiai appeavad in the July 1 issue of thb- 'VV.hington Post and Times Herald is Indeed frightening. This article Pee/Aided 'ItTnited States Is tfr - UNITED NATIONS, N. Y., June 30.?Japan and Europe, including Soviet bloc countries, are cutting Into United States trade with Latin America by offering cheaper prices and easier credit terms, a U. N. report disclosed today. Soviet bloc trading was sharply on the upgrade, it said. A review of Latin American economies for 1954 was made public here in advance of the meeting of the U. N. Economic Commis- sion for Latin America starting August 29 in Bogota, Colombia. Agriculture increases in Latin America as a whole kept up with a population increase and industry spurted 8.4 percent over 1953, but there were gloomy notes in the review. Investment in Latin America showed a de- clining trend. Balance of payments surplus,. was reduced by more than $700 million. During 1951 and 1953 imports of European rolling stock almost equaled those from the United States, the review noted. The United States also was losing ground in commercial vehicles, not only to Europe but also to Japan. European exports to Latin America of machinery for the pulp, paper, and timber industries have more than doubled in 2 years, while those of the United States and Canada have fallen by 45 percent, the review said. Japan was described as extremely active in textile-machinery sales. Eastern Europe and Japan have provided strong competition in agricultural ma- chinery, cutting considerably imports of United States tractors. The United States still holds an edge in the sale of private automobiles and was showing recovery in agricultural machinery, oil drilling machinery and machine tools, the review said.

J, CONSTRUCTION OF CERTAIN MILI- TARY, NAVAL, AND AIR FORCE INSTALLATIONS - CONFERENCE REPORT Mr. STENNIS. Mr. President, I sub- mit a report of the committee of con- ference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the amendment of the Senate to the bill (H. R. 6829) ,to au- thorize certain construction at military, naval, and Air Force installations, and for other purposes. _I ask unanimous consent for the present consideration of the report. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The re- port will be read for the information of the Senate. The legislative clerk read the report. (For conference report, see House pro- ceedings of July 7, 9. .6, The subcommittee did not know of the objection of the people of Langley, Va., to the possible location of the new CIA headquarters in that community. I am not sure whether it has been finally decided that the headquarters will go to Langley, Va,. I think, how- ever, that certainly the people of that coniMunity should have an opportunity to be heard before the Appropriations Cominittee before any final decision is reached. The committee was unaware of the protest at the time the matter was being considered. There being no objection, the letter was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows: JULY 8, 1955. The Honorable HENRY M. JACKSON, Senate Office Building, Washington, D. C. DEAR SENATOR JACKSON: We are residents and property owners of the Langley-Great Falls area of Fairfax County, Va., who are concerned over the possible construction of the Central Intelligence Agency headquar- ters in the neighborhood. - On April 7 of this year CIA announced publicly that it was giving up any.plan to locate in Langley. Then last week, without notice, language was written into a military construction bill which indicated that CIA was still very much interested in Langley as a possible site. We believe there are serious considerations against locating CIA in Langley that should be brought to the attention of the Congress. Langley is a unique residential area of one- family homes on large lots, country places, and farms. There are no apartment build- ings ahd virtually no commercial develop- ment. A large Government office building will bring great pressure for mass housing, commercial construction, used-car lots, and other changes which will destroy the char- acter of the area. Fairfax County is already hard-pressed to provide water, sewerage, schools, roads, police, and other facilities for a rapidly grow- ing population. Water and sewerage may be esranged for an office building itself, but the great population increase which will follow will throw an intolerable burden on the community. For example, the water table is already falling in the county, and new mass housing in an area of individual wells will lower the table disastrously and dry up many existing wells. To erect a large office building on this river front property and to build a super highway to it in the name of the George Washington Memorial Parkway is directly contrary to the purposes of the Capper- Crampton Act. The Congress in 1930 author- ized. the acquisition of the river front prop- erty, including, the entire Virginia shore of the Potomac from below Chain Bridge to a point above Great Falls, for a memorial to George Washington and for "the protec- tion and preservation of the natural scenery of the Gorge and the Great Falls of the Potomac" (46 Stat. 482). a The public Roads tract at Langley with 11/2 miles of riverfront is the only substan- tial piece of United States property on the a July 11 Virginia shore above Chain Bridge available for park purposes. Other such property is increasingly difficult to acquire. As with the more highly publicized Maryland shore of . the Potomac, the interest of protecting the wilderness of the river and carrying out the statutory purposes of the Capper-Crampton Act must be balanced against the interest of providing access for the motorist. Neither consideration, however, suggests that large Government office buildings should be lo- cated on potential park land. The McLean Citizens Association, drawing Its members from the entire. area, consid- ered the problem at a special meeting and voted to opppose location of a CIA building in Langley. At a subsequent meeting the association recommended that park and rec- reation areas be designated for the area, in- cluding if possible the bulk of the Public Roads property at Langley. Of several sites now being considered by CIA, Langley is the only one in which the local citizens associa- tion has objected. In fact, other areas have pleaded with CIA to locate there and have of- fered free land and facilities. No affirmative reason has been offered for location of a huge Government office build- ing on potential park land, in the midst of an entirely residential area, against the wishes of the community and in the face of Strongly pressed invitations to locate else- where. CIA has no need to have its employ- ees walk in rural residential surroundings. To locate in Langley would damage a unique community with no offsetting gain to CIA. We are presenting our views in this letter to make clear that residents of the Langley area have not changed their opposition to a CIA building here. After the April 7 state- ment we assumed that the mattter was closed. If Langley is again to be consid- ered by CIA, we wish to be heard. Surely such a controversial proposal, with its serious effects on long-established Federal park pol- icy and on the orderly development of a community, should receive full and careful studydncluding an opportunity for all view- points to be presented.

Under the conference agreement the Army would receive $533,904,000 or $6,877,000 more than had been contained in the bill as it passed the Senate. This difference repre- sents, Senate agreement to add $5 million for hospital facilities at Fort Jackson, S. C. and to add $1,877,000 for cold storage facili- ties at Schofield Barracks in Hawaii. The Mavy would receive authorization In the amount of $564,224,300, which figure is $7,396,000 less than the Senate had ap- proved. This net reduction derives from the Senate's agreeing to the addition of $31,000 for pr9viding Navy family quarters in the District of Columbia and to the addition of $432,000 for a dispensary at Quantico, Va., with these additions being more than offset by reductions of $6,098,000 at Camp Pendle- ton' in California; $123,000 at the Naval Powder Factory, Indian Head, Md.; and $1,- 683,000 for land acquisition at Port Chicago, Calif. The decision to reduce the authoriza- tion at Camp Pendleton results from a re- luctance to provide additional facilities there until an adequate water supply for the base is assured. The land acquisition at Port Chicago was deleted, pending an on-the-site study by a subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee to determine whether this land requirement can be co- ordinatd with a similar requirement of the Army in the same area. The relatively small reduction at the Naval Powder Factory, Indian Head, Md. was made after the De- partment of the Navy advised that it no longer required this small item. The Air Force portion of the authorization is $1,207,902,000, an increase of $2,732,000 over the authorization contained in the bill as it passed the Senate. The addition of $2,732,000 is to provide additional facilities at the Charleston Air Force Base, S. C. These facilities were originally scheduled for authorization next year, but were in- cluded in this bill in order to enhance the effectiveness of this important base at an early date. The Senate had provided authorization for the headquarters installation for the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency in a maximum amount of $53,500,000; $45 million of this sum as intended for the construction of buildings. If the headquarters installation were placed at Langley, Va., $8,500,000 would have been available for the extension of the George Washington Memorial Parkway. If a site other than Langley were chosen, $1 million would have been available for the purchase of the necessary land. The House had provided $50 million for the building, and the Conferres agreed to add $1 million to the Senate allowance of $45 million for this purpose. Thus, the CIA is provided a maximum authorization of $54,500,000, of which $46 million is earmarked for the con- struction of a headquarters installation. If the Langley site is finally selected, an addi- tional $5,500,000 is available for extension of the George Washington Memorial Park- way. If the Langley site is not selected, this $8,500,000 is not available for authorization, but $1 million would be available for the ? purchase of land. The' House had provided an authorization of $300,000 for the construction of quarters and related communication facilities for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and his 'assistants. The conferees recognized the de- sirability of providing suitable quarters for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, but no detailed justification for this construction had been ppresented in the Benate, and it was agreed that an authorization of this type should be separately considered. Only this Morning a subcommittee of the Senate Com- mittee on Armed Services took testimony on an alathorization for this purpose, and it is possible that a separate bill to authorize housing for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will be reported in time for consid- eration and action at this session of the Congress. There were two changes from the Senate version of the general provisions contairibd in title V. The Senate conferees agreed to accept a House provision authorizing the secretaries of the military departments to acquire housing units insured by the Fed- eral Housing Commissioner pursuant to title VI or title IX of the National Housing Act in those cases where the housing units are adequate and suitable for housing military personnel and their dependents. This pro- vision, as it was originally inserted by the House, was intended to be complementary to a somewhat similar provision authorizing the secretaries of the military departments to assume, on application by the sponsor, mortgage obligations on the so-called Wherry housing units that had been insured under the provisions of title VIII of the National Housing Act. The Senate bill did not con- tain the provision affecting the Wherry hous- ing units. The House receded from its lan- guage authorizing the acquisition of Wherry housing units and the Senate accepted the House language authorizing the acquisition of title VI and title IX units. The second change in the general provi- sions as they had passed the Senate relates to the provision requiring the secretaries of the military departments to come into agreement with the Armed Services Commit- tees on the utilization of certain classified and overseas construction authorization. This section represented a continuation of committee policy adopted originally in 1952. However, the construction requirements, cost estimates, and base agreements are much more firm and definite today than was true in 1952, and the Senate agreed to eliminate this provision. Mr. STENNIS. Mr. President, the conference report substantially follows the bill as passed by the Senate. With reference to the matter at Lang- ley, Va., we did not locate the CIA build- ing at Langley. There was no testimony taken on that point. I ask unanimous consent that a letter from the county executive of the county of Fairfax, Va., be printed in the RECORD at this point. There being no objection, the letter was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows: COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA, COUNTY OF FAIRFAX, Fairfax, Va., July 7, 1955. Hon. JOHN C. STENNIS, United States Senator, ? Senate Office Building, Washington, D. C. DEAR SENATOR STENNIS: It occurs to me that it would be appropriate to advise you of the position taken by the Board of County Super- visors of Fairfax County, Va., relative to possible location of the Central Intelligence Agency's Office building near Langley in Fair- fax County. Our board has consistently welcomed the CIA to this location and has expressed a willingness to cooperate in every way pos- sible in providing the facilties which this in- stallation would require in order to make it possible for the Langley site to be chosen. The board has officially agreed to provide sewage disposal for the installation and has cooperated with the city of Falls Church and the Virginia Department of Highways relative to supplying water and providing adequate highway facilities for same. It is my understanding that a decision in connection with this location will soon be forthcoming and I am pleased to advise you 000500060021-8 8715 of the position taken by the Fairfax County Board of County Supervisors. With best wishes, Sincerely yours, CARLTON C. MASSEY, County Executive. Mr. THURMOND. Mr. President, I should like to congratulate the members of the conference committee upon the action on the bill which the distin- guished seniof Senator from Mississippi has presented. The able and distin- guished Senator from Mississippi and his committee composed of the Senator from South Dakota [Mr. CASE], the Senator from Washington [Mr. JACKSON], and the Senator from Massachusetts [Mr. SALTowsrALL], performed a very fine service, and I wish to commend them for the excellent manner in which they handled the bill. On behalf of the people of South Caro- lina I should like to say that we are very appreciative of the consideration given to the hospital at Fort Jackson. Fort Jackson is one of the finest instal- lations for training troops, and the hos- pital will provide facilities which are very badly needed there. We are very grateful to the conference committee for their action in the matter. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the conference report. The report was agreed to. Mr. JOHNSTON of South Carolina subsequently said: Mr. President, I should like to com- mend the three Senate conferees on the military construction bill for their suc- cess in retaining certain items in the bill. I wish to say something in behalf of the Charleston transportation depot; and I notice that there is $5 million allowed for Camp Jackson, S. C., for medical fa- cilities. I should like to invite the atten- tion of the Senate to the fact that it is not Camp Jackson. It is Fort Jack- son. It was made a fort several years ago. Also, I notice that $427,000 has been Included for the naval industrial reserve shipyard, Charleston, S. C.; $1,650,000 for the Marine Corps record depot, Par- ris Island, S. C.; $4,649,000 for the Ma- rine Corps auxiliary air station, Beau- fort, S. Q.; and $553,000 for community facilities at the Naval Receiving Station, Charleston, S. C. There are several other items pertain- ing to South Carolina, but I shall not go into them in detail now. I thank the committee of conference for having included these items for South Carolina. I think they are much needed and can well be used in the de- fense of our Nation at this time. MRS. LORENZA O'MALLEY (DE AMUSATEGUI) ET AL.

On April 7 of CLINTON Y. ANDL'RSON, L year CIA announced publicly that it HENRY M. JACKSON, IUS was giving up any plan to locate in Langley. Joszen C. O'MAIIONLY, Then last week, without notice, language was EUGENE D. Muzricist, ? written into a military construction bill ARTHUR V. WATKINS, which indicated that CIA was still very much Managers on the Part of the Senate. interested in Langley as a possible site. We believe there are serious considerations against locating CIA in Langley that should be brought to the attention of the Congress. Langley is a unique residential area of one- family homes on large lots, country places, and farms. There are no apartment build- ings and virtually no commercial develop- ment. A large Government office building will bring great pressure for mass housing, commercial construction, used-car lots, and other changes which will destroy the char- acter of the area. Fairfax County Is already hard-pressed to provide water, sewerage, schools, roads. police, and other facilities for a rapidly grow- ing population. Water and sewerage may be. arranged for an office building itself, but the great population increase which will follow will throw an intolerable burden on the community. For example, the water table Is already falling in the county, and new mass housing In an area of individual wells will lower the table disastrously and dry up many existing wells. To erect a large office building on this river front property and to build a super highway to it in the name of the George Washington Memorial Parkway is directly contrary to the purposes of the Capper- Crampton Act. The Congress in 1930 author- ized the acquisition of the river front prop- erty, including the entire Virginia shore of the Potomac from below Chain Bridge to a point above Great Falls, for a memorial to George Washington and for "the protec- tion and preservation of the natural scenery of the Gorge and the Great Falls of the Potomac" (46 Stat. 482).

Under the conference agreement the Army would receive $533,904,000 or $6,877,000 more than had been contained In the bill as it passed the Senate. This difference repre- sents Senate agreement to add $5 million for hospital facilities at Fort Jackson. S. C. and to add $1,877,000 for cold storage facili- ties at. Schofield Barracks in Hawaii. The Navy would receive authorization in the amount of $564,224,300, which figure Is $7,396,000 less than the Senate had ap- proved. This net reduction derives from the Senate's agreeing to the addition of $81.000 for providing Navy family quarters in the District of Columbia and to the addition of $432,060 for a dispensary at Quantico, Va., with these additions being more than offset by reductions of $6,008.000 at Camp Pendle- tm in California: $1.23,000 at the Naval Powtier Factory, Indian Head. Md.; and $1,- C83.020 for land acquisition at Port Chicago. Calif. The decision to reduce the authoriza- tion, at Camp Pendleton results from a re- luctance to provide additional facilities there until an adequate water supply for the base hi assured. Tlie land acquisition at Port Chicago was deleted, pending an on-the-site study by a subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee to determine whether this land requirement can be co- ordInatd with a similar reqUirement of the Army in the same area. The relatively small reduction at the Naval Powder Factory, InaLiu Head. Md was made after the De- partment of the Navy advised that it no longer required this small item. "I he Air Force portion of the authorization is $1,207,9020'0, an increase of $2,732,000 over the authorization contained in the bill as it passed the Senate. The addition of #2,732,600 is to provide additional facilities at the Charleston Air Force Base. S. C. 1 hese facilities were originally scheduled tor authorization next year, but were in- cluded in this bill in order to enhance the effectiveness of this important base at an early date, The Senate had provided authorization for the headquarters installation for the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency in a maximum ainount of $53,500.000; $45 million of this sum as intended for the construction of buildings. If the headquarters installation were placed at Langley, Va., $8,500,000 would have been available for the extension of the George Washington Memorial Parkway. If a site other than Langley were chosen. $1 million would have been available for the purchase of the necessary land. The House had provided $50 million for the building, and the Conferres agreed to add $1 million ' to the Senate allowance of $45 million for this purpose. Thus, the CIA is provided a maximum authorization of $54,500,000, of which $46 million is earmarked for the con- struction of a headquarters installation. If the Langley site is finally selected, an adc11,- tional $8,500,000 is available for extension ? of the George Washington Memorial Park- way. If the Langley site is not selected, this $8.500.000 is not available for authorization, but al million would be available for the purchase of land. The flouse had provided an authorization of $300,000 for the construction of quarters and related communication facilities for the Chairtnan of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and his assistants. The conferees recognized the de- :Arability of providing suitable quarters for the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, but no (let:Wed Justification for this construction had been ',presented in the Senate. and it was agreed that eh authorization of this type should be separately considered. Only this morning a subcommittee of the Senate COM.* ttee on Armed Services took testimony on an authorization for this purpose, and it is possible that a separate bill to authorize housing for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will be reported in time for consid- eration and action at this session of the Congress. There were two changes from, the Senate version of the general provisions contained in title V. The Senate conferees agreed to accept a House provision authorizing the secretaries of the military departments to acquire housing units insured by the Fed- eral Housing Commissioner pursuant to title VI or title IX of the National Housing Act, in those cases where the housing units are adequate and suitable for housing military personnel and their dependents. This pro- vision, as it was originally inserted by the House, was intended to be complementary to a somewhat similar provision authorizing the secretaries of the military departments to assume, on application by the sponsor, mortgage obligations on the so-called Wherry housing units that had been insured under the provisions of title VIII of the National Housing Act, The Senate bill did not con- tain the provision affecting the Wherry hous- ing units. The House receded from its lan- guage authorizing the acquisition of Wherry housing units and the Senate accepted the House language authorizing the acquisition of title VI and title IX units. The second change in the general provi- sions as they had passed the Senate relates to the provision requiring the secretaries of the military departments to come into 'agreement with the Armed Services Commit- tees on the utilization of certain classified and overseas construction authorization. This section represented a continuation of committee policy adopted originally in 1952. However, the construction requirements, cost estimates, and base agreements are much more firm and definite today than was true in 1962. and the Senate agreed to eliminate this provision. Mr. STENNL9. Mr. President, the conference report substantially follows the bill as passed by the Senate. With reference to the matter at Lang- ley, Va., we did not locate the CIA build- ing at Langley. There was no testimony taken on that point. I ask unanimous consent that a letter from the county executive of the county of Fairfax, Va., be printed in the RECORD at this point. There being no objection, the letter as ordered to be printed in the RECORD, follows: COMMONWEALTH Or VIRGIN/A, COUNTY Or FAIRFAX, Fairfax, Va., July 7, 1955. on. JOHN C. Brzrmrs, United States Senator, Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C. DEAR SENATOR STENNIS: It Occurs to me that t would be appropriate to advise you of the ition taken by the Board of County Super- sors of Fairfax County, Va., relative to ible location of the Central Intelligence ency's Office building near Langley in Fair. ax County. Our board has consistently welcomed the CIA to this location and has expressed a willingness to cooperate in every way pos- sible in providing the facilties which this in- stallation would require in order to make it possible for the Langley site to be chosen. The board has officially agreed to provide sewage disposal for the installation and has cooperated with the city of Falls Church and the Virginia Department of Highways elative to supplying water and providing equate highway facilities for same. It is my understanding that a decision in onnection with this location will soon be forthcoming and I am pleased to advise you 8715 of the position taken by the Fairfax County Board of County Supervisors. With best wishes. Sincerely yours. CARLTON C. MAMMY, County Executive. Mr. THURMOND. Mr. President, I should like to congratulate the members of the conference committee upon the action on the bill which the distin- guished senior Senator from Mississippi has presented. The able and distin- guished Senator from Mississippi and his committee composed of the Senator from South Dakota [Mr. Cssz], the Senator from Washington [Mr. JacicsoN], and the Senator from Massachusetts [Mr. SALTON5TALL1, performed a very fine service, and I wish to commend them for the excellent manner in which they handled the bill. On behalf of the people of South Caro- lina I should like to say that we are very appreciative of the consideration given to the hospital at Fort Jackson. Fort Jackson is one of the finest instal- lations for training troops, and the hos- pital will provide facilities which are very badly needed there. We are very grateful to the conference committee for their action in the matter. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the conference report. The report was agreed to. Mr. JOHNSTON of South Carolina subsequently said: . Mr. President, I should like to com- mend the three Senate conferees on the military construction bill for their suc- cess in retaining certain items in the bill. I wish to say something in behalf of the Charleston transportation depot; and I notice that there is $5 Million allowed for Camp Jackson, S. C., for medical fa- cilities. I should like to invite the atten- tion of the Senate to the fact that it is not Camp Jackson. It is Fort Jack- son. It was made a fort several years ago. Also, I notice that $427,000 has been included for the naval industrial reserve shipyard, Charleston, S. C.; $1,650,000 for the Marine Corps record depot, Par- ris Island, S. C.; $4,649,000 for the Ma- rine Corps auxiliary air station, Beau- fort, S. C.; and $553,000 for community facilities at the Naval Receiving Station, Charleston, S. C. There are several other items pertain- ing to South Carolina, but I shall not go into them in detail now. I thank the committee of conference for having included these items for South Carolina. I think they are.much needed and can well be used in the de- fense of our Nation at this time. MRS. LORENZA O'MALLEY (am AMUSATEGUI) ET AL. The PRESIDING OFFICER laid ,be- fore the Senate a message from the House of Representatives announcing its disagreement to the amendment of the Senate to the bill (H.
