WHO'S WHO in the Administration
White House insiders assure you that their resident
Soviet expert, Richard Pipes, has little access to the
president and no real power. So, they argue, you
shouldn't worry about his excursions into the more
exotic forms of super-harcilining. What worries us is
that the gentlemen in the Kremlin might not be privy to
this inside information-or might not believe it, as
hawks everywhere tend to discount dovish intelligence
-and might be taking Pipes' views as the real Ameri-
can position.

Our reports about James Baker's attempts to under-
mine Ed Meese were recently confirmed in an article
about Baker in The Texas Monthly. Written by Taylor
Branch, a contributing editor of this magazine, it calls
Meese "a roving mistake in search of a title," and adds:
"There have also been stories suggesting that Meese too
often leaves the command center to make trivial politi-
cal speeches and that be mishandled the administra-
tion's policy on tax exemption for segregated private
schools. Baker had complicity in all these leaks."
