Kelley: 'Can't deny' FBI burglaries

WASHINGTON ' - FBI Di-
rector Clarence Kelley said
yesterday he cannot flatly deny
that FBI agents or informers
are conlinoing to burglarize the
homes and offices of American
citizens.
"I wish I could say categoric-
ally, unquestionably, that this is
not going on," Kelley said at a
news conference. "I will say,
however, that I feel that it is
not heing done. I can also say
if I determine it's being done
now, I will take action."
BECAUSE FBI officials de-
ceived him in the past, he said,
"I can no longer make cate-
gorical, sweeping statements."
The director said he has in-
sisted on thorough FBI and
Justice Department investiga-
tions. Burglaries were conduct-
ed by agents during the past
five years and a burglary was
allegedly carried out by an
FBI informer only last month.

'-If there's linen to be clean-
ed in our own household, we
should clean it," Kelley said.
KELLEY REFUSED to pre-
dict that the investigations
would lead to criminal charges
and said agents who carried out
the burglaries "may not be
charged" because they were on-
ly following orders from their
bosses.
But he said many FBI em-
ployees fear they will be in-
dicted or disciplined for their
role in the burglaries or other
misconduct.
"Right now," he said, "there
are many people whose morale
has been seriously affected by
virtue of the possibility of eith-
er disciplinary or prosecutive
action."
TEAMS OF FBI agents have
been assigned to work with de-
partment prosecutors on the
burglary case and on a sepa-

rate investigation of financial
improprieties involving FBI in-
surance and recreation funds,
purchasing procedures and pos-
sible misuse of laboratory
equipment.
Kelley said he has insulated
himself from details of those
probes, but will act on the de-
partment's recommendations
when the investigations are
concluded.
For that reason, he said, he
has made no effort to ques-
tion the officials who may have
deceived him.
KELLEY NOTED that at his
last news conference more than
a year ago, he said no burglar-
ies had been conducted against
domestic targets since 1966. In
a statement six weeks ago, he
said he had discovered some
burglaries as recently as 1973.
"I know that I was lied to
because some of those who
conducted these burglaries very

definitely knew about them hav-
ing been there," he said.
"I was out making statements
that there were none, while they-
knew that there were."
IN A PREPARED statement,
Kelley announced several pro-
cedural changes and also made
his sharpest attack yet on the
regime of J. Edgar Hoover who
ran the FBI for 48 years until
his death in 1972,
During the Hoover era, "there
was a certain amount of arro-
gant belief at high levels in the
infallibility and appropriateness
of all FBI activities and poli-
cies," he remarked.
Congress and the news me-
dia, as well as FBI officials
themselves, allowed those "hu-
man failings" to develop
"t h r o u g h indifference or
through unquestioning belief in
a perfect image," he continued.
KELLEY SAID he has made
changes slowly "because of the

complexity of the problems, be-
cause of the necessity to deter-
mine all the pertinent facts,
and to avoid destroying the ef-
fectiveness and dedication" of
employees.
He said he is transferring do-
mestic intelligence investiga-
tions, the area which produced
the burglaries and a broad
range of illegal operations, to
the General Investigative Divi-
sion to be "managed like all
other criminal cases."

Medicaid services restored

Television viewing tonight

By IOIS JOSIMOVICH
State Medicaid recipients
Iave some extra relief in
store for them, at least through
this fiscal quarter.
As of August 1, many free
medical services were restor-
ed after a six-month black-out
due to lack of funds in the
state Department of o Social
Services (DSS). The tab for
the new vision, hearing and
speech assistance programs
will be paid through the state
Medical Assistance program.
There is a catch to the res-
toration of services, however-
they are not entirely free. Den-
tal work for Medicaid recipients
age 21 and over will require the
patient to make a 'co-payment'
of $3 for every dental visit;
and for vision services, pa-

tients age 21 and over will
make a co-payment of $2 for
each service.
"POSSIBLY THIS will dis-
courage some of the people
who come in," said Maxine
Arnett, Intake Supervisor at
the Washtenaw County DSS
building.
M e a n w h i 1 e, speech
services will only cover recip-
ients who are under 21, hearing
coverage is limited to hearing
aids, and re-imbursements for
new eyeglasses will only be per-
mitted once every two years
for those under 21 and every
three years for anyone over
that age. This means that if
glasses get broken or if some-
one is having a lot of eye trou-
ble, their assistance will not
be completely state-paid.

Dentures will only be auth-
orized for reimbursement once
every five years.
A L L REIMBURSEMENTS
will be handled through the
state Medicaid office in Lan-
sing, leaving the County DSS
unaffected as far as its budget
goes. But according to Edith
Goldman, DSS Assistance Pay-
ments Section Supervisor for
Ann Arbor, there will be more
of a workload for DSS staff in
the area of health care itself,
Goldman attributed the new
Medicaid restorations to "a
combination of complaints from
just about every segment of
the population," including coun-
ty departments and community
services which she says may
have been providing the serv-
ices in the absence of state aid.
