Extract

The U-2 affair which led to the aborted Summit Conference in 1960, the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, and C.I.A, support of the ill-fated Diem regime in Vietnam have all served to focus attention on the problems of management and control of one of the world's largest Intelligence empires. C.I.A. reportedly employs more people than the Department of State (although it denies any foreign policy-making role) and has an annual budget estimated at over $500,000,000. For the last three years it has been ensconced in a new $50 million building in Langley, Virginia, which has emblazoned over its glittering entrance, “The Truth Shall Make You Free.”
