CIA and churches policy clash over missionaries abroad
CIA Director George Bush and Senator Mark Hatfield forged an April May agreement that allows CIA contact with missionaries abroad while dropping Hatfield's anti contact bill. The deal keeps U.S. clergymen as intelligence sources but leaves churches uneasy about use of indigenous pastors and relief workers. Bush widened the missionary definition to include relief efforts funded by religious groups. The church receives insulation abroad, yet credibility and policing concerns remain unresolved.
