House Democratic and Republican. leaders yester-f
day joined in un .ng.: swift passage- of a bill that
would make it a crime to disclose the names of CIAO
or other undercover U.S. intelligence operatives;
working abroad:
In an opening hearing on the bill by the House
Intelligence Committee, Majority . Leader Jim
Wright (D-Tex) said he hopes the proposal won't
.fall by the wayside as it did last-year when "some
I people found- reason to drag their feet." He pro-
test .i that the country has tolerated "abusive dis-
closure ... by rogue agents". long enough. ,
Minority Leader Robert H. Michel (R.-Ill.) voiced
his agreement in prepared testimony promising
strong bipartisan support,
The measure would make it a felony to disclose
details identifying covert agents even if the informa-
tion comes from public documeriL. It was held up
last year amid debate over its constitutionality and
efforts to exempt some revelations such as those
that might be involved in news reports of inteii
Bence fauns or abuses.
CIA Director William . J: Casey emphasized the
Reagan administration's support for an undiluted
bill, galling it a priority item in the president's pro-
gram "to enhance the nation's intelligence capabili-
ties:"
Casey said "a coterie of Americans" devoted to
the destruction of U.S. intelligence agencies has
caused `untold damage" by naming names of CIA
officers throughout the world- He asserted that the
1975 slaying in,Athens of CIA station chief Richard'
Welch and incidents within the last year in Jamaica
and Mozambique could be attributed to unauthor-
zed disclosures.
i
Justice Department representative Richard K i
Willard, who followed Casey to the microphone, f
asked that the bill be amended to criminalize "at-
tempts" by past or present government officials and
contractors to make unauthorized disclosures. Pre-
cutors, he suggested, should not have to wait "until
the identities have actually been disclosed to the
public"
Rep. Wyche Fowler (D-Ga.) balked at that idea
and suggested it might do little more than cloud the
prospects for the bill.
"I can conceptualize as a two-bit- lawyer an at-
tempt to murder or an attempt to commit rape, but
I have trouble with an attempt to make a revels-.
Lion," Fowler said. "Until somebody speaks, we don't,
know what they're going to say."
In' addition to U.S. intelligence officers, infor-
mants and "sources of operational assistance"
.abroad, the bill also proscribes disclosure of the.
names. of undercover FBI counterintelligence or
counterterrorist agents in this country.
Rep. John Ashbrcok (R-Ohio) said he thinks false
or mistaken identifications of individuals as U.S.
secret agents should be outlawed, too. Casey agreed
that this would be "appropriate," although he said it
`might be more difficult to prove the requisite crru-i
nal "intent to impair or impede the foreign intalli-
gence activities of the United States." -

ash Keeplngr.Low Profile as Stand-In
for Reagan
'By Lee Lescaze
Washington Post staff Writer
As a stand-in' for President Reagan
without presidential powers, Vice
President Bush is attempting to keep
a low public profile while being nei-
ther: brash nor timid in. the top-level
meetings over which he now is pre-
siding.
And it was easy to keep that low
profile yesterday. Reagan had planned
to spend the day in Springfield, Ill.,
addressing the state legislature, so
there' were no presidential events
which Bush had to add to his sched-
ule. He went through an unremark-
able series of appointments including
a lunch with CIA Director William J.
Casey and a meeting with former Irish
Foreign Minister ' Garret Fitzgerald,
the leader of the opposition Fine Gael
Party.
An earlier vice president, Richard
M. Nixon, described becoming a
stand-in as one of his six crises. After
President Eisenhower had a heart at-
tack Sept. 24, 1955, Nixon wrote later
in his book "Six Crises" that he real-
ized, "Every word, every action of
mine would be more important now
than anything I had ever said or done
before because of their effect upon the
people of the United States, our allies
and our potential enemies."
"My problem, what I had to do,
was to provide leadership without ap-
pearing to lead," Nixon wrote, noting
that it would be dangerous for him to
make any move that might be inter-
preted as an attempt td usurp the
powers of the presidency.
Bush aims at achieving the same
balance, according to White House
sources, but he is having a far easier
time than Nixon.
decided to keep it that way.
For" one thing, Bush is generally
trusted by the Reagan inner circle.
Most important, White House Chief
of Staff James A. Baker III was
Bush's 1980 campaign manager before
joining the Reagan-Bush campaign. In
addition, presidential counselor Edwin
Meese III was one who adovcated
early on that Reagan should choose
Bush as his running mate.
"Bush is performing extremely well.
He's filling in for the president with-
out being brash or overly assertive. I
speak for everybody here," Baker said
yesterday.
As a symbol of his role while
Reagan remains hospitalized, Bush
.presided at his first Cabinet meeting
Tuesday sitting in his usual chair and
leaving Reagan's chair vacant.
However, Bush has not been so
deferential as to be reluctant to take
charge when needed, one White
House aide said. At the Cabinet meet-
ing he reportedly broke in on the dis-
cussion at a couple of points to call
for additional staff work.
Bush? also canceled all his travel
plans through the end of next week to
remain in Washington for at least the
early days of Reagan's- recovery. U.N.-
Ambassador Jeane J. Kirkpatrick will
substitute for Bush at a Geneva con-
ference on African refugees, White
House deputy press secretary Larry-
Speakes announced.
Nixon reported that "I did my best
during this period to avoid meeting
the press," and Bush seems eager to
follow that example. In normal times
the vice president moves around alone
without the group of reporters that
always trails after the' president. Bush
requested Bush to describe his Tues-
day,visit to Reagan in the hcspital for!
cameras, he chose 'o do it in a formal!
setting with the visiting prime min-
ister of the Netherlands instead of
making his staterrent in the White
House press room where reporters
would undoubtedly have attempted to
as I
k him questions.
"What the vice :)resident wants toi
do is conduct his schedule in a normal
fashion and assum,! what is necessary
of the president's r:=sponsibilities while)
keeping very close ,) the senior White
house staff," Pet-r Teeley, Bush's
press secretary, sail;.
Bush had been : itting in on almost
every major meeting the first two
months of the Reagan administration!
so the absence of the president - has
not meant a dra.,tic change in his
schedule. In cont-ast to yesterday,
however, today wi l he busy. It will' include the regular Thursday Cabinet'
meeting, a sessior with Republican
members of the House Ways and
Means Committee who are vital. to
the chances of passage of Reagan's tax
package and a me?cing with Poland's
deputy prime m mister Mieczyslaw
Jagielski.
The vice president allowed reporters
to see him only once, yesterday at a
brief session in the Roosevelt Room
during.which he said he is not used to
such intense interest from the media.

William Joseph Casey
THE "CYCLOI L" M
VES IN AT LANGLEY
by Louis Wolf
On December 11, 1980 President-elect Reagan an-
nounced his selection of William Joseph Casey to suceed
Admiral Stansfield Turner as Director of Central Intelli-
gence. The announcement trumpeted a message to the
American people and to peoples and governments around
the globe of the much-heightened priority the new adminis-
tration would give to the intelligence apparatus.
It is essential to review Casey's controversial career in
light of the central role he is expected to assume in the
Reagan-Bush administration. He is in fact the first DCI to
be made a member of the President's Cabinet. Nearly every
press report would have readers believe. that Casey's con-
nection with intelligence was confined to his World War 11
service in the Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor
of the CIA. As we shall demonstrate, this is not the case.
Background
William Joseph Casey was born 67 years ago in New
York City. During his teens, he was nicknamed "Cyclone"
by schoolmates because of his volatile temperament. After
earning a Bachelor of Science degree at Fordham Universi-
ty and a law degree at St. John's Univeristy, he was admit-
ted to the New York Bar in 1938, a year after he joined the
Research Institute of America. In 1942, General William
"Wild Bill" Donovan recruited him into, the OSS under
cover of the U.S. Naval Reserve when it became apparent
that Casey's poor eyesight would disqualify him from ac-
tive sea duty. At 29, he became chief of the OSS secret
intelligence branch in the Western Europe sector, and from
his London office, coordinated several hundred men in-
volved with the war's most sensitive intelligence and sabot-
age missions in Germany and France.
After the war, he worked closely with General Donovan
and some of his OSS colleagues in the formation of the
CIA. He is known to have argued strongly for the institu-
tionalization of covert action as the moving force of U.S.
postwar intelligence. He proudly claims a role in helping to
establish how the CIA would be organized and function.
Casey also applied his intelligence experience to the
Marshall Plan, the postwar economic recovery program
for Western Europe which was central to the U.S. strategy
of limiting the influence of the socialist and communist
unions and political leaders. Casey was a key advisor to the
Plan during the early 1950s.
Still with the Research Institute of America, Casey also
lectured at the New York Institute on Federal Taxation,
Business Planning, a subsidiary of the Prentice-Hall pub-
lishing company. He stayed there for seventeen years and
carved out a niche for himself as an author and editor of
various manuals for business people and lawyers. Am_)ng
the 30-plus publications that would earn him millions were
such evocative titles as: "How to Build and Preserve Execu-
tive Wealth"and "How to Raise Money to Make Money."
During his unsuccessful 1966 campaign for a congressional
seat, he bragged: "I've made all the money in business that
my family could ever spend."
It was one of the Casey tax manuals that stirred up a
hornet's nest. In 1964, a lawyer-author who had submitted
a book manuscript to Prentice-Hall brought a plagiarism
suit against Casey upon realizing that 2V2 pages of text
from the work, which the firm had already rejected, found
their way into the text of one of Casey's manuals. His
deposition was taken; the transcript shows that he swore at
the author's lawyer, now dead, and threatened in a string of
expletives to "kick your ass out of here." The j udge in tite
case has since stated that plagiarism had indeed been com-
mitted. Even Casey has admitted there was plagiarism, but
alleged that his subordinates were to blame for it though he
was editor of the manual. While Casey represented that the
judge had ordered the record sealed on his own initiative,
the judge told Congress it was Casey's lawyers who had
done so "for the purpose of expunging the verdict and the
record of the trial and possible attendant publicity."
