4 Patience, Loss Of Identity Needed By Illegals' In Central Intelligence Agency By HARRY FERGUSON WASHINGTON (UPD-Persons who work (or the Central Intelli gence Agency (CIA) are roughly divided Into "overts" and "ille gals." The overts work In the open, keep fairly regular office hours and they are forbidden to discuss the type of job they perform. The illegals are the ones who fan out across the world as spies, usually under as sumed identities. Some of them penetrate the Iron and Bamboo curtains In the full knowledge that discovery means death. It takes many months to equip an illegal for his job and it may be many weary years more be fore he comes up with a useful piece of information. The virtue of patience has a high priority in espionage. Gets New Identity The first thing that happens to an illegal is that he loses his identity. He gets a new name. new birthplace, a new family. If he is going to operate in Italy, for instance, he not only must speak flawless Italian but with the precise accent of the province in which he is to operate.

This wee one was like a gift from heaven because she came so late in our lives. J I'm trying des i perately to get J over my heart- break but our J friends are making life unbear ; able. Within a week of the funeral they came in packs to ask if I had any clothing or toys "left over" for their nieces, nephews and grandchildren. Of course I didn't we sent everything to the : Children's Home immediately. Yesterday a friend brought over ; her grandchild who Is the same ' ' age as the little girl we lost. The '.' woman said, "I thought Vicki r could be a substitute for your own y little girl today." j What In heaven's name Is the !-j matter with people that they have '-I such poor judgment? Please tell me what to do. HEAVY HEART ED Dear Heavy Hearted: Where did you find these brainless dolts? I would not call them friends. For the sake of your own mental . health I hone you will soon build ; up the courage to tell them hew ; you feel. ;1 Dear Ann Landers: So "Under standing Mother" thinks It is just fine for a 14-year-old boy to be -'. playing kissing games, does he? ; She also seems to think kids who ; don't go along with the gang ; might develop an Inferiority com- ; plex. Well, my sister had crazy ideas like that, too, and her son developed a pregnant girl friend .'; and a messed-up life. After a while, kissing no longer satisfies the natural drives and ; then the little darlings are com- '" pel led to think of something more ., exciting. How much a part or the ' gang do you think Junior will be when he has to quit high school to support a wife and child? And what kind of a complex will ho have when he finds he has a man's ; job to do before he fully tastes '; the joys of boyhood? Parents who think 14-year-old .', kissing Is just innocent fun are ; crazy. Three cheers, two beers and a preticl to you, Ann, for tell- ing her so.-UNA VOCE ANO i' ANIMO Dear Una! Thanks for the '' cheers. If you don't mind I'll pass I up the been and the pretzel, Just ono more word to "Under standing Mother." Have a stalls '. tic: The average age for the un ; '. wed mother In this country Is 15. '. This ought to clear your sinus '. es, Madume, Dear Ann Landers: I'm a high school senior whose problem is kids borrowing lunch money and I forgetting to pay it back. This I; month 1 am short $3. Hie word must have gotten around that I am a soft touch because all the kids seem to come lo me when they need money. I'm not a fat cat, I don't drive a car, and my dad is no banker. I don't know why they think I m loaded. The same kids who owe me money buy candy bars and malt ed milks after school. They also seem to have money to buy gas for their cars. This makes me sore. Please tell me if it is polite to remind people that they owe money? I hale to do it, but some times I think it's the only way I'll ever get my dough back. RED INK Dear Red: Some kids do for get, so a reminder Is in order. But If they don't come through after one nudge, moke a mental note that Soandso Is a dead-beat and never loan him money again.

Then lie is "papered." He is equipped with every sort of docu ment he could conceivably need in his new environment, and he is taught how to manufacture new ones if the need arises. The next step is to arrange a "drop," a place where the illegal can leave information and be sure that it will wind up at CIA head quarters in Langley, Va. Stories Circulate For obvious reasons the CIA re fuses to discuss the work of i I le gal--,, but some interesting slories about them float around Washing Ion. One involves an illegal work ing in Vienna who for months collected the trash from Russian Aeroflot planes after they land ed. One day he found a bent coat hanger and arranged for it to be sent to Washington. The CIA suspected that the Russians were working on a new long-range bomber and that the metal shavings in the factory were being melted and used to manufacture a special type of coat hanger. Now they had one. The coat hanger was put through a long series of tests to determine its metallic composition. CIA sci entists knew the new bomber's wings were made of the same metal alloy end it was fairly easy from that to determine the size of the bomber's wings and its po tential range and bomb load. The story is plausible because there is no doubt that the CIA has among its overts some of the best scientific brains in the na tion. There probably are about 10,000 employes at the organiza tion's headquarters which covers nine acres some 20 minutes drive from downtown Washington. Next lo the Pentagon, CIA headquar ters is the largest government building in town. Appears Routine Much of the work done by the oveits probabiy appears to them as routine office chores. That is because their assignments are highly compartmentcd and a per son in one small office cannot be exactly sure what his neighbor is working on. Each overt turns in a small piece of information, but only the top echelon CIA men get all the pieces needed to complete the picture puzzle. The CIA buys or obtains about 200,000 pieces of ' literature each month from Russia, the Soviet European bloc and Red China. Nothing is too trivial to interest the CIA railroad time tables, texts of speeches by minor Rus sian functionaries, the pig popu lation of the Ukraine, what movie is being shown in Kiev. The CIA has a translating computer that turns Russian into English at the rate of 30,000 words an hour. Every word uttered in Radio Moscow broadcasts is monitored by the CIA. Most of the time it is dreary work, but Allen W. Dul les, recently retired CIA direc tor, tells how it paid off on one Actress, Baby 'Doing Fine' HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Actress Anne Buxter and her new daugh ter were reported doing well today at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital. Miss Baxter, wife of Australian rancher Randolph Gait, gave birth to the 8-pound, 3-ounce girl, as yet unnamed, Monday morning. The Gaits have another child, Melissa, 1. The actress has another daugh ter, Katrina, 10. by her marriage to the late actor John Hodiak. occasion. A CIA girl in a listen ing post heard Moscow broadcast a vague item for publication in a provincial Russian journal She sent it along to Washington where it was fitted in with other infor mation. What it added up to was several hours advance notice that the Soviet Union intended to re sume nuclear testing. Even the most minor Soviet of ficial doubtless would be sur prised if he realized what the CIA knew about him. A vast card index system is devoted to Com munist personalities and the biog raphies are kept as current as possible. Nobody knows when to day's small fry will become to morrow's big fish. True or not, another story that circulates in Washington Is about the CIA top official who wanted a quick report on the manager of a minor factory in the Soviet Union. He was pessimistic that there would be anything availa ble, but he called for the card index on the man. It was com nleti in everv detail nnH in.tti ed the information that the man s mistress had dyed her hair three times in the last six months. Dif ferent color every time.
