Chilean Crisis

SANTIAGO, Chile, May 80
P.-Chile's powerful Agrarian
Laborite Party plunged the gov
ernment of President Carlos
Ibanez into a major crisis last
night. The party's six cabinet
ministers quit their posts.
The ministers walked out as
a result of Mr.. Ibanez' refusal
to drop Undersecretary of the
Interior Carlos Ferrer Their
retirement was announced by a
spokesman for the party. which
is the Presidents main political
backer.
Secondary and university stu
dents who went on strike Thurs
day and Friday threatened an
indefinite stoppage if Mr.. Ferrer
did not leave the government.
They hold him responsible for
government delay in granting
asylum to 13 Peruvian students
expelled from Argentina after
being held there six months by
President Peron's government.
The 13 were granted asylum
and arrived in Chile last week,
Another four arrived last night
as political refugees from Lima.
In refusing to accept Mr.. Fer
rer's resignation, Mr.. 1banez said
1t was sought by irresponsible
elements who seek to exploit q
situation which has been settled
in a satisfactory way"

There was report that some

billion foreseen in less than a
decade.
The Census Bureau, she said,
tells us that there will be 100
million Americans in 1865.
There are 165 million today.
BY 1865, she said, I'VE expect
that at least 10 million retired
persons will be receiving old-age

putes and active international
cooperation,
Profit Seen in Talks
Borba said that despite "nu-
merous differences" of opinion
revealed in the talks, they had
been profitable"
Moscow radio, in a broadcast
heard in London today, said the
talks between Marshal Tito and
the Russians "are developing in
a spirit of full mutual under
standing"
even if it is still too early to
assess the results achieved, since
the talks have not yet ended"
the broadcast continued, "the
exchange of opinions which al
ready has taken place neverthe-
less shows the usefulness and
appropriateness of such meet
ings."
Neither delegation has made
any announcement of economic
agreements in the talks between
the Yugoslavs and the trade ex-
perts of the Soviet delegation,
Deputy Premier A. I. Mikoyan
and P. N. Kumykin, deputy min
lster of foreign trade. It is ex-
pected, however. that an increase
in trade between Yugoslavia and
the Soviet bloc will result.
Tito Refuses Establishments
Despite the optimistic tone
of the Moscow broadcast, it ap-
peared clear as the conference
drew to a close that the Rus
slams had not succeeded in win
ming Yugoslavia back into the
Soviet bloc nor had they been
able to attract Marshal Tito to
a policy of armed neutrality
such as they instituted in
AuSria.
Instead Yugoslav officials re-
iterated previous statements that
their government would maintain
and strengthen its defensive al
lance with Turkey and Greece,
and also would keep aloof from
any direct connection with East
ern or Western military alliances.

SECURITY
Continued From First PAGE

weapon against domestic politi-
cal opponents. AS far back as
1941, for example, Representa-
tive Martin Dies insisted that
FBI investigations Of subversives
include nudists and technocrats.
Thus, by 1947 when the first
special program began, the
terms Communist" and anti
Communist" had been used
wildly against non-Communists
for more than a decade, rob-
bing the terms Of much Of their
specific meaning. This helped
obscure the real dangers Of the
international Communist con-
spiracy-which most of the ex-
ploiters consistently ignored.
One result has been that those
governed by loyalty-security
programs have expressed doubt
as to its fairness and sincerity.
In 1852 team of university So
biologists polled employees in a
dozen Government agencies on
what they thought was the OBJ
jective Of the security program.
The answers fell into three main
categories: ID to eliminate
would-be spies; (2) to counter
act liberal tendencies in Gov
ernment; and 90 to promote
partisan politics. They were
asked who was most likely to
get into security troubles. The
answer: Those interested in So
cial problems.
This is not necessarily how
the system works, but how those
governed by it think it works.
It Is Of the utmost significance
that these Government employees
believe that the security system
has ulterior motives.
Political exploitation has done
much to destroy faith in the
motives Of security investiga-
tions, but so has the poor quality
Of investigators and officers.
Perhaps the largest body OF
competent investigators is the
FBI. which conducts checks
where loyalty is concerned. Eight
other agencies also do security
work. The Civil Service Com
mission does most Of it, working
with cases where personal re-
liability (security) are involved.
The Army, Navy, Air Force. and
Department Of Treasury, Justice,
State. Post Office, and Agricul-
ture all use their own detectives
for their own security checks
using their own standards. All
use agents who would not be
acceptable to the FBI.
But perhaps the greatest err
rors are committed by private
detectives working in defense
plant cases, hired by individual
industries who have to clear
workers with access to confiden-
tial material. Many plants have
turned to such reputable firms
as Dun & Bradstreet. Although
such agencies are notably COM
petent to establish q mans
credit, loyalty and security are
different matters.
The correctness" of personal
beliefs, the significance of social
and political ideas, and the
meaning Of professional associa-

That is the feeling even
