TFBE WHITE 9iOl1SE PLAN
I NTL
TO PRIDiVE THE GOVE~r~IYVdE~dT
Now the re-elected President is moving on domestic problems.
Ahead: efforts to overhaul Gavernmient, bring the budget under
control, cut down on bureaucracy and avoid tax hikes.
With a ne~y mandate from the voters
. -but a Congress still controlled by the
political opposition-President Nixon in-
tends to press for far-reaching reforms
in Government agencies and programs
? during his second term.
The President has said:
"I honestly believe that Government
in Washington is too big, and it is too
expensive. We tau do the job better
will fewer peoplo,"
On .the outcome of this effort may de-
pend the burden of federal taxes, the
impact of inflation on the cost of living,
the value of the American dollar, and
the availability of money and credit for
business expansion.
Action agenda. In the fortnight im-
mediately following his re-election, Pres-
ident Nixon took these actions:
? Signaled a firm determination to
'shake up the organization of the exec-
utive branch of Government from the
White House on down.
? Called for resignations of about
2,000 presidential appointees, including
Cabinet officers and White House aides.
Many will be retained. Some will be
shifted to new jobs. Others will be
dropped.
? Conferred with top advisers includ-
ing ~~ice President Spiro T. Agnew at
Key Biscayne, Fla:, or Camp David,
Mci., on plans for Administration per-
SOIlIlel, policies and programs iu the new
term. I14r. Agnew has been the President's
liaison man with Governors, mayors and
local officials around the country.
? Recalled Iioy L. Ash, president of
Litton Industries and former head of
the President's Advisory Council on Ex-
ecutive Organization, to assist in the
struchrral planning.
? Consulted John B. Connally, former
Texas Governor who led the Dcmocrats-
for-Nixon drive in the recent campaign.
Mr. Connally was a key member of the
Ash Council, before serving as Treasury
Secretary in the first Nixon term.
? Set December 15 as a target date
for announcing persomtcl and policy de-
cisions in overhaul of the Government.
Associates say the President will be
guided by recommendations of the Aslr
Council, which conducted a two-year
study of Government operations in
19G9-1970.
The advisory group submitted about
1G separate reports. Many remain con-
fidential memoranda for the President.
Others were published at the time ~Ir.
Nixon First called for wholesale Govern-
ment reorganization in his 1971 state-
of-the-union message.
"Most Americans fed up." The
President said thou that "most Ameri-
cans today are simply fed up with gov-
ernment at all levels."
The Ash Council found that the Gov-
ernment has grown up in a topsy-turvy
fashion, adding people and programs
without any consistent pattern, and with
a great deal of overlapping and dupli-
cation among agencies.
As a result, Mr. Nixon told Congress
in January, 1972, "Our Federal Govern-
ment today is too often a sluggish and
unresponsive institution, unable to de-
liver adollar's worth of service for a
dollar's worth of taxes."
here are major reforms proposed by
the Ash Council, as revised by the
White Ilouse in the last two years:
New super-Departments. A half doz-
en Departments of Cabinet rank and a
score of lesser agencies would be con-
solidated into four new super-Depart-
ments along modern, functional lines.
A White Douse documentary on the
subject said that "the executive branch
should be organized around major pur-
poses of Government."
The new super-Departments would
deal with domestic problems in these
areas: human resources, - natural re-
sources, community development and
economic alPairs.
Programs dealing with people-such
as education, welfare, health, manpow-
er training, social security and unem-
ployment insurance-would come under
a Human Iesources Department.
Other programs-those dealing with
urban renewal, rural development, city
planning, hospital construction, mass-
transit systems and urban highways-

MENT?REORGANIZATION PLAN."
would be assigned to a Departrnent of
Conununity Development.
A Natural Resources Department
would guide land use, soil conservation,
energy sources and minerals, ~vatcr re-
sources and marine technology, public
works, recreation alld civilian atomic
energy.
Under an Economic Affairs Depart-
ment would come many existing func-
tions of the Commerce, Labor and
Transportation Departments, along with
the Tariff Commission acrd Small Busi-
ness Administration.
The Agriculture Department would
be retained as a separate entity, but
would be limited to dealing with farm-
commodity production and marketing
programs. Its present operations arc
much broader.
These Federal Departments would be
abolished: Interior; Commerce; Labor;
Ilcalth, Education and ~?Velfare; Hous-
ing and Urban Development, and Trans-
portation.
Originally, the Ash Council proposed
to leave intact the existing Departments
of State, Treasury, Defense and Justice.
Recently, President Nixon reportedly
has been focusing on shaking up the
State Department, leading to specula-

lion that Mr. Connally may become the
next Secretary of State.
Objective: give the foreign service a
new mission of looking out for economic
interests of tl]c United States arowld the
world in an era of increasingly tough
trade competition.
At Key Biscayne on November 11,
Deputy White house Press Secretary
Gerald Warren said that "a great deal
of staff work" has gone into plans for
remodeling the foreign-policy apparahls,
Officials point out that a number of
Government units have varying roles iu
foreign affairs, including the `Treasury,
Justice, Commerce and Agriculture De-
partrrients; Export-Import Bank; National
Security Cocmcil, Central Intelligence
Agency, and many others.
President Nixon would like to achieve
better eo-ordination, particularly as it
affects U. S. interests in world trade,
monetary and economic ail=airs.
The. "fourth branch." The White
House distributed in 1971-without rec-
ommendatians-an Ash Council report on
federal regulatory commissions.
Terming them a "fourth branch of
GOVet11[Tlen.t," .inVCStlg:lt01'S folllld t11CSC
commissions "are not sufficiently ac-
countable for their actions to either
Congress or the President." The report
suggested that they should be "more
responsive to the public interest."
There are :tt least eight of these
quasi-judicial bodies, with broad au-
thority to regulate private enterprise.
The. Ash. Cow]cil proposed that six of
them be abolished, wi.tl~ their functions
redefined and assigned to new agen-
cies. The six:
Interstate Commerce Commission,
Civil Aeronautics Board, Federal ~Sari-
time Commission, Federal Trade Com-
mission, Securities and Exchange Com-
mission and Federal Power Commission.
New agencies to be created: 'Trans-
po:rtation Regulatory . Agency, Federal
Power Agency, Securities and Exchange
Agency, Federal Trade Practices Agency
and a P'edcral Antitrust Board.
'The Asb Council also recommended
that the Federal Commwlications Com-
mission be reduced from seven to five
COIn II] 1SSI Ollel'S.
1Vo public recommendation was made
-at least, none was published-conceru-
ing operations of the National Labor Re-
lations Board.
The White IIouse took the position
that it was circulating the report for
collsideration and comment by inter-
ested parties, subject to later action.
However, informed sources say that
the emphasis on Government reforms
now being considered by 'dir. I\'ixon
does not appear to lie in the regulatory
area.
Changes by Congress. Some chvlges
proposed by the Ash Council and other
advisory bodies have been enacted by
Congress. For example:
A new Enviromuental Protection
Agency was created to .deal with air,
water and noise pollution across the
board.
Tlie Budget Bureau was recast as a
modern Office of Management and
Budget in the Executive Office of the
President.
Also approved wero a new Domestio
Council and an International Economi~~
Policy Council at the White House.
The Post 0II}ce Department was re-
formed as a Government corporation
known as the U. S. Postal service.
A new corporation was set up to
take over at Government expense the;
money-losing passenger operations of
certain railroads, under the trade name:
of AA?iTRAK.
But the major proposals of the Presi??
dent for? Goveruanent reforms were ig??
pored by the Democratic-controlled Con??
gress during the last two years.
Now, Mr. Nixon says he has decided.
"to accomplish as much as I can of that
reolganization through executive action."
Presidential powers. Opinions vary
on how much the President can do widl-
out the consent of Congress.
One authority expressed this view:
"You can't abolish or create executive
departments without the consent of Con-
gress. You probably can't merge some
operating programs without congressional
approval.
"There are, however, a lot of internal
structural changes within Depal?tments
and agencies that could be done by ex-
ecutive orders of the President."
Another official claimed the President
has considerable latitude to merge or

ed out that the President possesses a veto
power over legislation.
T~evcrthelcss, it is expected that re-
newed requests will be made to Congress
for ?substantive legislation to accomplish
major reforms in the structure of execu-
tive departments.
Clthenvise, the President may set up
supervisors in the 't~'hite House to keep
watch on operations of the bureaucracy
in the lower echelons of Government.

officials emphasise that Government re-
argani~ation is atY integral part of a much
broader package of reforms presented to
Congress in the 1971 state-of-the-union

~4r. Nixon called for "a new Anx:rican
lievolution? to "return power to the pco-
plc" through federal revenue sharing with
States and localities, deceniralizatio^ of
thi; fedc;.ral bureaucracy, and elimination
or consolidation of a host of narrow-liur-

T~'ederal Government has snore than 1,000

than 40 billion dollars a year. "e'v'e have

Democratic vice presidential
candizlate Sargent Shriver
Bald yestcrciay that a Ric-
Govern administration would
."convert the State Depart-
ment from a passive handmai-
den of the military pursuit of
'potiver to a true minstry of
peace" ..
Chat?Sin ; that Ricltarcl
Nixon had "failed the cause of
peace" Shriver said: "~Ve n7ust If

witlt polder which esclncles at?;
tentiotr to 1>eoples' lives. A.nd
we.must reform a foreign pol-
icy bureaucracy which is a
mechanism for tvar instead of
a ministry fnr peace."
In a wide-ranging foreign
policy speech in PhiIadephia,
Shriver cited L'.S, failures in
Vietnam, where he said that
over the last. four years "no le?
gititnatc basis has c~istcd for ?
perpetuutin~ that 7t?ar," and ;
the subcontinent of Asia;
Where ignoring diplomatic re-
ports of "selective genocide"
the U.S. continued sending
arms to "Pakistan's dictator-
ship" Tie also charF;ed that
"for anilliozts in Africa, Latin
America and Asia, we have be-
come blind pursuers of power
grid patrons of oppression.."
? Shriver said: "Over the past
35 years, military thinking has
come to dominate our furcign
?policy machinery." As a result
"the ?. State Department be-
came a tail to the military
beast, wagging at it.s master's
:command." The Secretary of
State, he said, "acquiesces si-
lently in military solutions
and .emerges only to de-
mean his office by engaging in
political attacks."
(In Ncw York, a spolccsman
t'or Secretary of State ZFilliam
P. P.obers, said: "Secretary
Rogers believes that the rec-
ord of American foreign pol-
icy in the last three years has
been so successful as to speak
for itself and not require a de-
(tense. 1:Ie believes that the
overwhelming majority of
,Americans support it"
(The spokesman said Shriv-
j er's comments on Pogers him-
Iself Were "not Worthy of com=
merit" Rogers fs in New York
to confer With foreign minis-
ters attending the United Na-
tions.)
Shriver said that although
~RIr. Nixon promised four years
ago to "clean house" at the
State Department, "that house
is falling down." :lIcGovcrn'
he said, "will clam house" and
institute major changes. TYtere
would be a strong Secretary of
State "enj~yit?~ the Presi-
dent's confidence, and wi3ling
to take charge of all our civil-
ian foreign activities:'
He said policy Positions
Would ?be staffed with '9n7agi-~
native melt and women," re-
tirement age With pension
would be lowered to 50 to "in-
duce retirements by. super-
fluous senior officers;' re?
ct?uits With training in cultural
anthropalogv and "theologies
and philosophies of other na-
tions" Would be welcome. IIe
said the department ~3'ould be
"streamlined" - meaning a
cutback in personnel.
Tlto State Department said
Shriver, a former ambassa-
dor to Trance, would take.
charge of U.S, diplomatic mis-
sions abroad. "Today," he said,
"there are more CIr~ and De-
fense Department personnel
in our embassies than there
are b'orci~n Service Officers."
Taking a stvipc at the power
concentrated in the hands of
the president's chief foreign
policy adviser Henry A. Iiis-
sinocr, Shriver said: "A presi-
dent needs a sarong State De-
partment - to curb the impul-
ses of our national security
bureaucracy toward military
intervention; to stop unin-

(literally) intriguing story is that of the
O.S.S. in China and Indochina. There were
both pro-Communists and anti-Commu-
nists in the U.S.S., and most agents sym-
pathized with Asian .nationalists, so that
the O.S.S. aided Thai partisans against the
British and. of course more famously, the

statement of the reason that the Na-

anathema, when he wrote this:

Political rhetoric ranging from dia-

tially based on a great drive to throw

" Back in 1cJG3, shortly after President Kennedy's
assassination, Robert r. Kennedy, while he was
still Attorney-General, conducted his own investi-
gation of the death of his brother. That private in-
vestigation, which ran parallel with t:he official
inquiry into the magnicide conducted by the ~Var-?
ren Commission, was ?featured by trips to this
country by an Inspector Iamilton, former Chief
Inspector of Scotland Yard. Hamilton, an old

" many contacts during the ]otter's ambassadorship
in London, ]lad been retained by Bobby to help
unravel the real truth about the murder of J.r.K.
After long conferring with the merr-hers of the
Kennedy family and making a few discreet sotuld-
ings with liis own contacts, Hami]ton zeroed on
the fact that the assassination of 1olrn Kennedy
had occurred very shortly after his brother Bobby
had made some preliminary moves of taking direct,
personal control of the U.S. Central Intelligence
Agency, whose leadership he blamed for the Bay
of Pigs fiasco. Hamilton, following the "cui pro-
= lest" ("whom does it benefit?") reasoning, reach-
ed the- conclusion that Bobby's move t:o seize con-

" murder of his elder brother.
After Bobby's own assassination in 1'68, it is not

Bobby had collected in his private investigation
or whether it has been destroyed.
But apparently Teddy has become convinced of
the correctness of Hamilton's conclusion, and
furthermore, considers it to have been further vin-
- dicated by Bobby's own death-which occurred
. within a matter of days after he threw his hat into .
the presidential ring and was on the way to put
himself again in the position to take over the

Mr. Marchetti was on tl:e director's staJJ of the C!A when
he resigned fro-n the agency two years ago. Slnce then, his
novel The Rope-Dancer has been published by Grosset &
Dunlap; he is now working on abook-length critical m~alysis
of the CIA. ,
The Central Intelligence Agency's role in U.,'>. foreign af-
fairs is, like the .organization itself, clouded by secrecy
and confused by misconceptions, many of ttien- deliberately
promoted by the CIA with the cooperation of the news
media. Thus to understand the covert mission of this
agency and to estimate its value to the political leadership,
one must brush myths aside and penetrate to the sources
and circumstances from which the agency draws its au-
thority and support. The CIA is no accidental, romantic
aberration; it is exactly what those who govern the country
intend it to be-the clandestine mechanism whereby the
executive branch influences the internal alfairs of other
nations.
In conducting such operations, particularly those that
are inherently risky, the C!A acts at the direction and with
the approval of the President or his Special .Assistant for
National Security Affairs. Before initiating action in the
field, the agency almost invariably establishes that its oper-
ational plans accord with the aims of the administration
and, when possible, the sympathies of Congressional lead-
ers. (Sometimes the endorsement or assistance of influen-
tial individuals and institutions outside government is also
sought.) CIA directors have been remarkably well aware
of the dangers they court, both personalty and for the
agency, by not gaining ,specific official sanction for their
covert operations. They are, accordingly, often more care-
ful than arc administrators in other areas of the bureau-
cracy to inform the 1Vhitc House of their activities and to
seek Presidential blessing. To take the blame publicly
for an occasional operational blunder is a`srnall price to
pay in return for the protection of the Chief Executive and
the men who control the Congress.
The U-2 incident of 1960 was viewed by many as an
outrageous blunder by the CIA, wrecking the Eisenhower-
Khrushchev summit conference in Paris and setting U.S.-
Soviet relations back several years. Within the inner circles
of the administration, however, the shoot-down was
shrugged off as just one of those things that happen in the
chancy business of intelligence. After attempts to deny
respon$ibility for the action had failed, the President openly
defended and even praised the work of the CIA, although
for obvious political reasons he avoided noting that he had
authorized the disastrous flight. The U-2 prof;ram against
the USSR was canceled, but work on its follow-on system,
the A-11 (now the SR-71,) was speeded up. Only the
launching of the reconnaissance satellites put an end to
espionage against the Soviet Union by mantled aircraft.
The A-11 development program was completed, neverthe-
less, on the premise that it, as well as the U-2, might be
useful elsewhere

5500 million-a-year private war in Laos and pacification/
assassination programs in Vietnam.
The reorganization of the U.S. intelligence commu-
nity late last year in no way altered the CIA's mission as
the clandestine action arm of American foreign policy.
Most of the few changes are intended to improve the finan-
cial management of the community, especially in the mili-
tary intelligence services where growth and the technical
costs of collecting information are almost out of control.
Other alterations are designed to improve the meshing of
the community's product tivith national security planning
and to provide tt~e White House with greater control
over operations policy. However, none of that implies a
reduction of the CIA's role in covert foreign policy action.
In fact, the extensive review conducted by the White House
staff in preparation for the reorganization drew heavily on
advice provided by the CIA and that given by former
agency otlicials through such go-betweens as the influential
Council on Foreign Relations. Earlier in the Nixon Admin-
istration, the Council had responded to a similar request
by recommending that in the future the CIA should con-
centrate its covert pressure tactics on Latin American,
African and Asian targets, using more foreign nationals as
agents and relying- more on private U.S, corporations and
other institutions as covers. Nothing was said about reduc-
