"The national security is many times threatened more by this than by the buildup of Soviet arms, or the buildup of Soviet personnal, or breakthrough in weapon developement."

The Committee report says foreign intelligence services have penetrated some of the most vital parts of US defense, intelligence, and foreign policy structures.
委員會報告說，外國情報機構已經滲透到了美國國防、情報及外交政策機構中核心部分。
The report cites a string of recent cases, including the Walker Whitworth spy ring, which gave the Soviets the ability to decode at least a million military communications.
這份報告援引了最近的一系列案件，其中包括Walker Whitworth間諜環，這些案件足可以讓蘇聯破譯至少一百萬次軍事通訊往來。

Republican Dave Durenberger of Minnesota, Chairman of the Intelligence committee, sums up the current situation this way:
情報委員會主席明尼蘇達州共和黨人Dave Durenberger以此概括了當前局勢：
"Too many secrets, too much access to secrets, too many spies, too little accountability for securing our national secrets,
“太多的秘密，太多的盜密，太多的間諜，而保護我們國家機密的責任感少之又少，
and too little effort given to combatting the very real threat which spies represent to our national security."
而針對間諜太多的付出恰又代表著我們國家的安全真正受到了威脅。”
Senator Durenberger said the Committee found some progress has been make in toughening up security clearances for personnel,
參議員Durenberger說，委員會在加強人員安全保障方面取得了一些進展，
and some additional resources have been devoted to countering technical espionage,

but he said much more needs to be done and he described the current security system as one "paralyzed by bureaucratic inertia."

The Committee makes ninety-five specific recommendtions,

including greater emphasis on re-investigations of cleared personnel, a streamlined classification system,

more money for counter-intelligence elements of the FBI, CIA and the military services, and tighter controls on foreign diplomats from hostile countries.

The report cites FBI assessments on how extensively the Soviets use diplomatic cover to hide spying activity.
這份報告援引了聯邦調查局的一份評估報告，評估報告證明了蘇聯如何大范圍利用外交掩護來掩蓋間諜活動。
There are twenty-one hundred diplomats, UN officials, and trade representatives from the soviet Union and Warsaw Pact Countries living in the United States.
有二十一名外交官、聯合國官員和來自蘇聯及華沙條約國家的貿易代表居住在美國。
And according to the FBI, 30% of them are professional intelligence officers.

它說為聯合國機構工作的蘇聯人大約有800人，其中300人在紐約，其中四分之一為克格勃或蘇聯軍事情報機構GRU工作。
