Compiled by the Journalist Dr. JULIUS MADER it mentions about 3,000 American civilians and military men, who operate in more than 120 countries. JOHN F. 101NNb1DY, the American President in 1962 already had called public attention to the growing importance of subversive war. Pointing out that the monstruous effectiveness of hydrogen bombs.consi- practical dorably reduces the possibility of their use, the President emphasized the increasing importance of subversive war and subversive actions for the infiltration of other countries. In approximately the past fifteen years, the United States has carried out a series of extremely threatening military operations, which definitely could have led. to a third world war, if the Socialist World had not insured pence through its vigilance.

In addition, the aggressive war against the people of Vietnam and American intrigues in Greece in support of the reactionary military junta in its takeover of power in 1967. The Centrist Democratic Youth Association EDIN already revealed the fact before the April putsch, that CIA had influ- enced the Greek elections with considerable sums of money. An investigation of the facts before the six day war of Israel in June 1967 shows, among other things, that the United. States Defense Department is today the greatest purchaser of petrolem and the cheapest crude oil comes from the Near East. Wall. Street Journal reported that the United States has invested the enormous amount of eight billion pound sterling in oil production in the Near East, while the American political economist VICTOR EID.LO declares that a third of all the profits from foreign investments, which flowed into the United States in 1965, came from the Near East, an area in which the CIA, as MADER's book shows, has employed a very large number of its workers. The extraordinarily powerful and influential intelligence agency, the CIA, is directly subordinate to the Office of the President of the Approved For Release 2004/11/01: CIA-RDP88-0135OR000200840055-2 Approved For Release 2004/11/01 : CIA-RDP88-0135OR000200840055-2 United States of America. The CIA presents to the President every ,morninv, a "list" of items investigated by the Intelligency Agency, which is characterized as "strictly secrete. This list is compiled in the CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia and is said to cost about fifty million dollars. The radio antennas installed on the roof alone cost 50,000 dollars. Three million words are processed daily in Langley. and are based on radio reports in 60 languages. )very month about 200,000 newspapers, books and other publications are analyzed in all details. Even the West German news magazine Dor Spiegel pointed out in its edition of 23 May, 1966 that only 17.8 percent of applicants for CIA employment were found suitable after taking the compulsory lie detector tests. The majority of CIA workers have been in CIA employment at least 10 years, as the figures in UWhols who in CIA show". The salaries are high and, in many cases, exceed$20,000 a year. It has always appeared that CIA workers were entrusted with civilian assignments. However, their actions prove the opposite. The Military Assignment of the CIA "Who's who in CIA thoroughly destroys the official legend that CIA is a non-military organization. It is estimated that more than a million American soldiers were stationed. abroad in 1967. CIA workers are attached to these troops. It also must be pointed out that the United States now acts as a partner in bilateral or multilateral military agreements with over 40 countries.

In addition the Pentagon has military attaches at 71 United States embassies and legations. Finally the American Government tends to send "advisers" whenever an opportunity presents itself. Finally there is the twin brother of the CIA, the so called Defense Intelligence Agency, which was founded by the former head of the Defense Department Robert S. McNamara and since his resignation this year, has been built up with great speed by CLARK M. CLIFFCIN.D.

CIA Remains Anonymous It is understandable that ruling circles in the United States are not exactly anxious to publicize the activity of the CIA. However, recently the subversive activity of the CIA has become public and,in fact, at a period when it pleased the men behind the scenes the very least. Amon; the examples, as one firct thinks about it, are the unouccessful hay of I'Z,.;n invasion against Cuba in 1901 and the fact that the CIA failed when on 13 August, 1962, East Germany secured its state frontiers against West Berlin, which shelters some 90 espionage Approved For Release 2004/11/01: CIA-RDP88-0135OR000200840055-2 Approved For Release 2004/11/01 : CIA-RDP88-01.350R000200840055-2 organizations, mostly financed and supported by the United States and serves the West German extremists as a "springboard to the East" In "Who's who in CIA" 1MjADIER comes to the conclusion that it is high time to begin, at least the first exposure offensive against the machinations of the CIA. The East German journalist hints that, in all probability, further volumes in the CIA will follow. Also interesting are the statements about the development of the CIA and the special functions of related organizations, such as the FBI, the Office of Intelligence Research (OIR) and organizations associated with the CIA, such as church, cultural and academic organi- zations, radio stations like Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty, which concentrate on propaganda. broadcasts to the Socialist countries. We large also find exact details on the control, which the CIA exerts on a number: of mass media such as Prouves (Paris) and. Encounter(London), aside from the indirect cooperation with organizations with such innocent sounding names as American Council. for the International Commission of Jurists, Congress for Cultural Freedom, International Labor Research Inc. The Los Angeles Times (May 1967) interviewed the former CIA consultant ThOMAS t1R11DEN, who pointed out that the CIA is systematically carrying out a systematically developed program for splitting the West German trade unions. Largo financial amounts were used to keep the trade unions on an anticommunist course. Approved For Release 2004/11/01: CIA-RDP88-01350R000200840055-2.

In India at the end of 1967, more than 200 scientists published a statement, in which they expressed their alarm about the fact that foreign agents and similar organizations, in the first p1b ce the CIA, had infiltrated in vital areas of public life in India. The scholars attacked with special sharpness the activities of the so-called Asia Foundation, which according to statements of the Indian Government is financed by CIA. The CIA is forbidden any intelligence activity in the United States, even according to its own rules. The American magazine Saturday Evening Post published at the end of 1967 a devastating exposure of the evil machinations of the CIA in the United States, which " actually his infiltrated all important and influential areas of American life, such as employer a.esociations, trade unions, churches, the Government, universities, the press, other mass media and much else".
