South Korean plan to spy on U.S. alleged
WASHINGTON (AP) - The South Korean intelligence agency planned to install a spy network in the White House and to pay off aides to top U.S. leaders last year in hopes of winning U.S. support for South Korea, a document released yesterday alleged.

A subcommittee member, Rep. William Gooding, R-Pa., said he believes Korean efforts to carry out the plan were cut short by the publicity.
The subcommittee apparently obtained the document from Sohn Ho Young, who was at work in New York City two months ago. Young yesterday before the subcommittee yesterday.
