Mayor Pleas
For Boost in
Chest Funds
Declaration of an 'emergency in
the Salem Community chest cam-
aign was issued Saturday by
layor R. L. Elfstrom. Noting that
chest agencies' budgets were re
duced before the campaign, he as
serted that further cuts due to
failure to attain the $105,000 goal
would curtail youth and charitable
work in the city.
The mayor's message follows:
"There is an emergency existing
in the Salem Community chest
campaign, niici u tamui iu.
thorough campaign we are still
$15,000 short of the budget re
quirements. 'The chest agencies budgets
were substantially reduced pre
viously, by the chest budget com
mittee in order, to hold the total
down to $105,000. Further cuts
would mean curtailing the import
ant work of the youth child-care
and charitable organizations, or
each agency conducting a supple
mental campaign.
"Salem is growing, and there
are more people to serve.. More and
more character building organiza
tions are needed to strengthen,
build and prepare our youth for
Times like these. We must keep
these organizations strong and ef
ficient, and to do this, they must
be adequately financed.
"The citizenry of Salem has al
ways been most generous. I ap
peal to you now to meet this em
ergency, and quickly subscribe the
$15,000 needed. Do not wait for
some one to call to see you but
send it at once to the Community
chest campaign headquarters.
"Our Salem . community chest
must be perpetuated."

American Spy System Shows
Increasing Peacetime Strength
By Clarke Beach
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2$-UP)-Coud some nation launch com
pletely surprise atom-bomb attack on the United States? ;
One reply can be given confidently: This government Is now us
ing its eyes and ears as it has never done before in time.of peace.
The American spy system, although still in its infancy, is ro
bust and growing. Men who have had the opportunity to study it
close up say that if it had .been
in existence in 1941 the Japanese
probably would not have succeed
ed in their attack on Pearl Har
bor. It has plenty of growing pains
but it entered the field of inter
national snooping hundreds of
years after other great powers.
And espionage in the atomic age is
indefinitely complex.
The American cloak-and-dagger
men now working noiselessly and
invisibly throughout the world are
doing only a fraction of the job.
Experts in commerce and indus
try, doctors, enconomists and sci
entists extract some of the most
valuable information from innum
erable sources wide open to the
public, such as foreign books and
technical reports.
. The most exacting job of all
lies with the few men at the top
who must evaluate the informa
tion decide what all the facts re
veal about the strength and inten
tions of foreign powers.
The set-up of the American in
telligence system, known as the
Central Intelligence agency (CIA),
was described in some detail by
a task force report of the Hoover
committee. The report was never

printed and this reporter knows of
only one complete copy now avail
able to the public.
From all available information
you get this glimpse of the inner
workings of the American espion
age system:
The Central Intelligence agency
is divided into five major offices.
Three are charged with the col
lection of information. They dp
it by espionage in other coun
tries, by examining foreign docu
ments and monitoring foreign
broadcasts. CIA's five monitoring
stations hear an average of 2,
000,000 words a day.
A fourth unit is the office of
collection and dissemination. It
maintains a vast index system of
facts and photographs of foreign
industry, science, personalities,
etc.
The fifth .unit is the office of
reports and.es timates. Its job is to
evaluate intelligence and prepare
intelligence reports for the presi
dent and other .officials concerned
with high policy.
ft has six regional branches
covering geographical areas and
four concerned with economics.

science, transportation and inter
national organizations.
. The regional branches assemble
raw material : from thousands of
cables and. reports supplied by the
state department, the defense de
partments, .CIA's own clandestine
agents and from various other
U. S. agencies which have missions
overseas.
The regional branch makes an
"intelligence estimate." This is re
viewed by the director of CIA. If
the material is controversial, it is
reviewed by the highest intelli
gence tribunal of all, the intelli
gency advisory committee (IAC.)
IAC is composed of the princi
pal intelligence officers of the
state, army, navy and air force
departments, the joint chiefs of
staff and the atomic energy com
mission. The members issue a ma
jority report, but if there is dis
agreement, any member is free to
write his dissent. The dissent
goes with the majority report to
the president and other CIA "cus
tomers." The necessity for disguise is a
particular handicap to scientists
who work for CIA. No scientist
working for it can publicly ack
nowledge the type of work he is
doing.
"The practical result is to create
the impression that the individual
in question isn't employed by any
body." said the Hoover task force
report. "This makes it difficult
for him to attend conferences or
write papers, and he soon loses
standing . . , it is highly desir
able that any eminent scientist
employed by CIA be given a 'cov
er' position."
CIA got a big lift from congress
in a law passed last June permit

certain officials, to bring into the'
United States 100 aliens a year
without regard to immigration
laws. Thus, foreigners wha under
take dangerous missions abroad
can be assured that when their
job is done they will be brought
to safe shores.
The Hoover commission indi
cated that on the whole it felt CIA
had made a good start.
The task force report, however,
revealed one curious fact: One of
CIA's weakest points is that it
doesn't learn enough about what's
cooking in the U. S. A. The report
explains it this way:
The military services tend to
withhold operational Information
and the details of military plans
on the grounds of security. In for
mulating plans the state depart
ment tends to rely on its own
judgment and information with
out consulting CIA. Although
CIA appears to be supplied with
all information of a strictly (in
telligence nature, it is not clear
that CIA has adequate access to
information about operational de
velopments." Salem YM Annual
