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, 1955, pp. 86(;1-8669, CONGRESSIONAL RECORD.) The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the present consideration of the report? There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the report. Mr. JACKSON. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent to have printed at this point in the RECORD a letter which I received from residents of Langley, Va, 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 hones 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. 4821. The Public Roads tract at Langley with I i~ miles of riverfront is the only substan- tial piece of United States property on the 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 -Cram pton Act must be balanced against the interest of providing access for ti-.e motorist. Neither consideration, however. suggests that large Government office buildings should be lo- cated on potential part; 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 recommends d 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 focal 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 ls:nd, 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 work 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 the; 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- ley and on the orderly development of a community, should receive full and careful study including an opportunity for all view- points to be presented. Respectfully yours, BENJAMIN LF.E BIRD. G. BOWDOIN CRAIGHILL, Jr. ROGER F:SHER. MANNING GASCH. ANTHONY LEWIS. SAMUEL F. NEEL. CYNTHIA ZIMMERMAN. Mr. STENNIS. Mr. President, I have a short statement which is a summary of the conference report, and I ask unan- imous consent that the statement may be printed in the RECORD at this point in my remarks. There being no objection, the state- ment was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows: STATEMENT BY SENATOR STENNIS ON CONFER- ENCE REPORT ON H. it. 6929, MILITARY CON- STRUCTION Au IORIZATION BILL A tabulation showing a comparison of the authorization contained in this bill as it passed the House, as it passed the Senate, and as has been agreed to in conference is as follows: ('oniporatire sonunartf of military construction aulliorizatioil bill (II.

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 $432,000 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,- 688,000 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 $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 $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 Senate, 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 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- clons 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 requiremepts, 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 die' 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 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 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. CASE], the Senator from Washington [Mr. JACKSON], and the Senator from Massachusetts [Mr. SALTONSTALLI, 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 (DE AMUSATEGUI) ET AL.
