Kelley admits info, tips kept on congressmen
WASHINGTON (AP) — FBI Di
rector Clarence M. Kelley acknow
ledged Tuesday that the agency
maintains some information on con
gressmen, including unsubstan
tiated tips, hut denied the informa
tion is ever misused against them.
Chairman Don Edwards,
D-Calif., of the House Civil Rights
subcommittee, said, however, that
Kelley testified before his subcom
mittee a year ago, and “the exis-
tance of personal or political files in
members of Congress was com
pletely denied.”
Edwards announced he has in
vited Kelley and Atty. Gen. William
B. Saxbe to full-scale public hear-
ings.
“We will ask them to lay out the
full and complete story of these ac
tivities,” Edwards said.
A 550-word public statement is
sued by Kelley again used the word
information rather than files to de
scribe what he said is sometimes
kept on congressmen.
The FBI director said he wants to
testify before the House subcom
mittee “to dispute the fallacious
statements about the FBI’s misuse
of information concerning members
of Congress.
“The policy of the FBI is that in
formation concerning members of
Congress is collected when mem
bers are the subjects or victims of an
investigation or a specific back
ground check is requested concern
ing the suitability for nomination to
a position in the executive or
judiciary branches, Kelley said.
Kelley said “unsolicited informa
tion is received from time to time
making allegations concerning
members of Congress as well as
other individuals in public and pri
vate life” and said this also is filed.
If the allegation does not warrant
FBI investigation, Kelley said, the
tipster is told so and the tipster’s
letter and the FBI reply are “filed
for record purposes. ”
But Kelley said the information
“is never used to influence the
judgment or actions of any member
of Congress. ”
In Hartford, Conn., a former as
sistant FBI director, Cartha D. De-
Loach, said one example of a job-
applicant file on a congressman was
that on former President Richard
M. Nixon when he tried years ago to
become an FBI agent.
Nixon was accepted but didn’t
take the job, DeLoachsaid. He said
Nixon’s record “must have been ab
solutely clean because he was ac
cepted. ”

Ags lead
scientific
expedition
A&M oceanographers are direct
ing a major scientific expedition in
the Southern Ocean near Antarc
tica.
Dr. Kilho Park is currently
aboard the “Islas Orcadas” in the
area of the Drake Passage and Scotia
Sea. Two other ships with Dr.
Worth Nowlin and other TAMU
scientists aboard will join Park Feb.
9 for the rest of the three-month
cruise, along with teams from Col
umbia, Oregon State, and the Uni
versity of Washington.
The TAMU teams, due back at
the end of March, are participants in
the International Southern Ocean
Studies (ISOS) which is a long-term
study of the oceans around Antarc
tica. Nowlin and Park are involved
in the chemical and physical
oceanography of the Circumpolar
Current that circles the Antarctic.
“As we move closer to an under
standing of the global environment,
the important role of the polar reg
ions on the atmosphere and ocean
becomes more apparent,” Nowlin
said.
“A major goal of these studies is to
establish the response of this cur
rent to the large-scale movement of
surface winds,” he explained. “This
experiment is scheduled for 1978.
In preparation for this activity, a
series of experiments to monitor
movement of ocean waters through
Drake Passage is planned for
1975-76-77.”
ISOS is a program prepared by U.
S. oceanographers in response to a
larger plan developed by the Na
tional Academy of Sciences. Ulti
mate practical goals for the 10-year
study includes concern for man’s
impact on the climate. This concern
has been increased, according to the
academy, by the growing capacity to
use global resources — a capacity
that within decades may begin to
approximate the natural forces that
influence the atmosphere and the
ocean.
These alterations to the atmos
phere are assuming a place of prom
inence in worldwide concern over
the environment, scientists con
tend.
Another goal is to understand the
processes that control the biological
productivity which is high in the
Southern Ocean. The large amounts
of summer plankton growth result
ing from the long days of sunlight
are a source of food for small fish to
whales. The monitoring of this will
be necessary if man is to harvest
efficiently but not exhaust the re
newable resources of this rich reg
ion.
Also understanding of the physi
cal environment of the Antarctic
could eventually lead to develop
ment of the region. With improved
local weather, ice and sea condition
predictions, a rational development
of the resources of the continent and
its ocean can be planned.
