Will continue efforts to develop sources
in a position to furnish continuing intelligence information
concerning the activities of SEBASTIAN JOHN LA ROCCA as a
"Commission" member and
"family boss,"
as well as
identification of "family"
members.
ADMINISTRATIVE
Philadelphia airtel to Pittsburgh dated 8/25/63
makes reference to New York airtel of 8/5/63 in which
information was received from NY 4008-PC in which the informant
identified a photograph of SEBASTIAN JOHN LA ROCCA as
being identical with an individual known to him as "BIG
JOHN,", who controls Palumbo's Restaurant in Philadelphia,
as well as shylocking, bookmaking, and racketeering in
Philadelphia.
Investigation by the Philadelphia Office
reflects that SEBASTIAN JOHN LA ROCCA,
'Commission" member,
Pittsburgh Division, is not associated with Philadelphia
racket activities nor apparently identical with the
individual observed by the informant.
Information in this report making reference to
WILLIAM "BIG BILL" LIAS has already been furnished to the
Bureau and Detroit by Cleveland; therefore, no copy of this
report is being furnished to Detroit.
Leads have previously been set out to Chicago to
further identify PAOLINELLO, a gunman allegedly hired by
NICOLO GENTILE in the past,
as well as his relationship
with SIGNOR D'ANDREA, former head of the Chicago "family."
Other information contained in this report
suggesting possible leads or investigation by other offices
has been previously set out in substantive case files
pertaining to individuals whose names appear in this report.
Pittsburgh report of 7/31/63 contains additional
information not included in this report which was submitted
since 6/1/63.

1. On 2 May 1977 Chris Hopkins and Annie Goodpasture
visited the (Warrenton Record's Center to review old Mexico
City files in search of additional photographs of the
"unidentified man". We were unable to locate any such
photographs.
It appears that earlier photographs may have
been destroyed in a purge of Mexico City Station files and
that the folders for the destroyed material were re-used to
forward more recent photographic material to Headquarters
for retention.

Mexico Station Coverage of Soviet and Cuban Embassies (1963)
1. unacecal coverage: REPRODUCTION PROHENED
From the time. the Mexico Station was opened in April 1947 until
the arrival of Mr. Win Scott as Chief of Station Cin 1955, the Station had
developed a support apparatus to exploit leads from the Soviet Embassy in
Mexico City. This umbrella type project (LIPSTICK) consisted of multiline
phone taps, three photographic sites, a mobile surveillance. team and a
mail intercept operation.
Telephone taps (LIFEAT) were placed by an employee of the local
[telephone company who was handled by a Station case officer. The number
of lines tapped was limited only by the availability of a listening post
nearby and the availability of Tangauge (English, Spanish, Soviet, Polish,
Czech, etc.) transcribers. Generally, these were Mexican or Mexican-
American recruited agents.
Three photographic sites were handled by a Station case officer
• assisted by technicians on TDY from Headquarters who advised the Station
•on the best types of cameras, films, and concealment devices. These
operations had sub-crypts under project LIPSTICK (namely: LIMITED, LILYRIC
and LICALLA). LIMITED was a fixed site directly opposite the Soviet Em-
bassy (across the street) which had both a vehicle and a pedestrian en-
trance. The gate to the Soviet Embassy was on the northwest corner of the

Soviet compound and the LIMITED site was diagonally across a double laned
street on the
southeast corner of that block. (See attached diagram).
LIMITED was the first photo base and operated strictly on an experimental
basis in the early stages. This base, however, was closed when the Sta-
tion received word that the photograph of the "unidentified man" was
being released by the Warren Commission. LILYRIC was an alternate photo-
graphic base. It was located in an upper story of an apartment building
on the same side of the street as the LIMITED site but in-the middle of
the block south. It had a planted view of the front gate of the Soviet
Embassy. LICALLA, the third photographic site, was located in one of a
. row of four houses on the south side of the Soviet Embassy compound.
This site overlooked the back garden of the Soviet Embassy compound. The
purpose of this operation was to get good identification photographs of
Soviet personnel. The three photographic sites were managed by a re-
cruited agent who was a Mexican citizen, the son of an American mother
• and Mexican father (deceased). This agent collected the film from
the
LIMITED and LILYRIC sites
three times a week. The film was. then de-
veloped and printed into 8 x 10 contact print strips: LICALLA film was
originally processed in the Station but in early 1959, due to the resig-
nation of a technician, this film like that of LIMITED and LILYRIC was
processed on the outside by a recruited agent.

Mobile surveillance was conducted by two American staff officers.
These two officers organized a surveillance team of six recruited agents
which used late model cars and a panel truck for surveillance. The team
could be activated by radio from the LIMITED site whenever someone of
interest left the gate of the Soviet Embassy. These agents were aware of
the LIMITED site since they had been issued LIMITED photographs for
• identification purposes.
The Station also conducted a/unilateral mail intercept operation,
LIBIGHT, which was handled by an American case officer. A recruited
Mexican agent, who had a semiofficial status, obtained selected letters
from a subagent employed by the Mexican postal system:
2. (Liaison Coverage:
Liaisor coverage was unreliable and insecure as characterized by
the nature of the Mexican services at that time. The Mexican Direction
of Federal Security (DFS), (with which we conducted liaison, was a hip-

was principally occupied with political investigations and control of
foreigners. Their agents vere venous trist, and corrupt. (A Station)

(LIENVOY, was run by a Mexican officer. The listening post had 30 lines
connected at one time. The transcription room was staffed by Mexican
SArmy officers.
In 1961, (because of mismanagement by the Mexican prin-
cipals,) the Station chief, himself, became the project case officer. A
Station officer assisted him in the daily supervision of the listening
posts and in picking up the transcripts and the tapes. There was also
an American technician inside the listening post.
3. Oswald Coverage:
REPRODUCTION PROMBITEL
In mid-1962, the Mexican officer in charge of LIENVOY (the
joint tap operation) asked the American officer at the LIENVOY listening
post for the telephone numbers of the Soviet, Cuban and Satellite Em-
bassies in anticipation of possible coverage. The Station immediately
disconnected all of the unilateral telephone taps on these Embassies so
-that they would not be discovered when the Mexicans hooked up their.
taps. The Mexicansasoon thereafter connected five Cuban lines, five
Soviet lines, three Czech lines, two Polish lines, and one Yugoslav
line.
At the listening post, a live monitor made short summaries of
conversations of interest which were then included in a daily resume
for the Chief of Station. Later, when a reel was completely recorded,
full transcripts were typed and passed to the Station; however, there
was usually a time lag of a day or two. Reels which contained Russian

ip a language other than Spanish or English were taken to another location
for translation and typing. Mr. Boris Tarasoff did the Russian transla-
tions but because of the volume of Russian conversations, the translations
usually ran about
a week behind the date of the conversation..
As soon as the Station learned that an American identifying him-
self as Lee Oswald phoned the Soviet Embassy, Miss Ann Goodpasture of the
• Station started screening all photographs. However, here again, there
was a backlog because the photographs were picked up three times a week
• but those picked up were usually for dates a few days before since the
technician who was processing the film, did so on a night-time basis.
Further, photographs were not made initially until a complete roll of
film was used. Later this was changed and the operator cleared the camera
at the end of each day regardless of amount of unused film remaining.
The instructions were to cover the entire work day (office hours) and to
photograph all Soviets, their families, all foreigners, and cars with
foreign license plates. Human
error did occur but generally the agents
were conscientious. The Cuban Embassy coverage had more sophisticated
equipment using a pulse camera which frequently developed niechanical dif-
ficulties.

There was some delay because Station personnel waited to compare the
photographs with the typed transcript. All transcripts were made in
either Spanish or English since the Chief of Station could read only
these two languages and because he personally screened the transcripts
for operational leads.

About mid 1962 (creck date) LiNVOY outside lexi rept
asked
for the telephone nunders of the Soviet, Cuban, and Satellite Embassies.
With tris forewarning, LIFEAT (unilateral coverage)
was disconnected.
However
as I recail, the Mexicans connected 5 Cuban lines, 5 Soviet lines, 3 Czech,
2 Polish, and I Yugoslav line. The baserouse listening post had a live
monitor tico made short sunnaries of interesting conver
for a daily
resume which was received each day around 8 a.".
by (Flick to Goodpasture
to get to Scott before 9.a.m.) Later (when ti
was concletely recorded)
full transcripts were typed and passed
there was usually & time lag of a
Russian or another languege be
post the day after the tre
station in the same way, however,
Those transcripts which had
banish or English vent out of the listening
ript (of other conversations on the reel)was
typed.
These reels were taken to another location where they were translated
and typed. In the case of the Russian translations, Boris Tarasoff usually ran
about a week behind the date of the conversation because of the volume of
Russian conversations among the embers of the Soviet Esbassy. During this
period (fall of 1963) the reels were probably being brought into the station
and carried to Boris by one of the people from the Soviet Section or they may
have been carried to him by flick but I think I brought the reel in and gave
it to Herbert Manell to take to Boris.
Herbert Wanell and his wife Barbara
handled all of the processi:g of Soviet transcripts.
ly job involved screening
the photographs as soon as we learned that the man calling himself Oswald was
probably an American.
However, here again there was a backlag because the
photos were ricked up
three tines a week but the ones ricked up were usually
for dates a few days previously because (the doctor processed the film on a
night time basis.. Photographs vere made usually until one roll was used but
later ve got it changed to one day coverage on each roll - in other words the
operators cleared the camera each day whether there was englisange a full

embassy coverage had more sophisticated equipient (a pulse caera) but it
frequently develored nechanical difficulties. Bob Zambarnardi and Spathar

Item 295, page 3
At 1626 hours, A Soviet calls from the Soviet Embassy Chancery
to
the Cuban Consulate and asks for Sylvia DURAN. He asks
DURAN if the american has been there.
DURAN: Yes, he is still here.
SOVIET:
According to the letters that he showed them from the (Soviet)
Consulate in Washington, he wants to go to the USSR to stay
a long time with his wife who is Russian; but also the
answer had not been received (by him) regarding his problem.
That accordingly these transactions take 4 or 5 months but
without prior approval from the USSR, they have to request
and even then, they could not issue the
esa here (in Mexico
City) without asking Washington.
blingly
this man
(the American),
showed him a lett
which he (the
American) is a member of an organt
in favor of Cuba
and said that the Cubans could
e him the visa without
the Russian visa and now the
"doesn't know what to do
with him, because he has to

Washington.
DURAN:

becau
problem with him (the Anerican)
is that he doesn't k

is very difficult
him a visa, because he was
thinking of proce
his visa, because he knew it was
going to take
Eime waiting for the Russian visa in
Cuba, and the
SOVIET:

is that if his (the American) wife were
now in Wash
son (and) going to receive the visa right now
or the permission from the USSR to return to her country, (1f)
she is going to receive her visa in Washington, then having
this. visa, she can communicate to whatever place, this
permission, for example, here or in any other place (he) can
receive it, but right now they do not have them.
DURAN:
SOVIET:
DURAN:
SOVIET:
..certainly and neither can (the Cubans) give him a letter
because they do not know if the visa will be approved.
They can only give the visa according to instructions.
Then that is what she will put on his application.
Neither can I give him any letter of recommendation because
I don't know him and pardon me for bothering you.
DURAN: It. was no bother, thank you very much.

27 September 1963, Sovict Embassy Consulate 15-00-55
Item 74, page 2
An unidentified man (speaking Spanish) calls the Soviet Embassy
Consulate at 1037 hours and asks for the Consul. He is told that
the Consul is not there. The unidentified man asked what is needed
to get visas to go to Odessa.. He is told to call back at 1130 hours.
Item 137, page 2
At 1235 hours a man named ALATRISTE (not a Soviet) from inside the
Soviet Embassy Consulate calls out to number 45-37-72 (Colonial
America, probably a pension or hotel but number not listed in the
telephone directory) and speaks with a man named SAN ROMAN.
ALATRISTE says that he is in the Russian Embassy and they need to
know what day the boat "KALONIA" will arrive in Odessa
Soviets will also need copies of the passenger manifes
(One concludes that ALATRISTE and SAN ROMAN
representatives
for the boat "KALONIA", and needed routi
information.
First
a call was made to the first listing
Soviet Embassy in the
Mexican telephone directory (which
out to be the Military Attache).
They got the phone number
gansulate and the address. After
making a call to the Cone
it learning that it would not be open
until 1130 hours, ALA
it to the address to get the needed
information.)
• Item 395, pages 7 and 8
Just atter 1600 hours, the Soviet Consulate received a call from the
Cuban Consulate (Sylvia DURAN) who said she had there a U.S. citizen
who had requested a transit visa to Cuba because he is going to the
USSR. DURAN wants to know with whom he spoke at the Soviet Embassy
because she sent him over to them telling him that if the Soviets
approved the visa then the Cubans would give him one without anything
more, advising the (Department of) Immigration in Cuba. She wants
to know with whom he spoke because he says that he doesn't know
either with what person and who told him that certainly there would
be no problem. The Soviet asks DURAN to wait a minute.
After a
short wait DURAN explains the same thing to another Soviet. This
Soviet tells her to leave her telephone (number) and her name and
someone will return the call. DURAN gives her name and telephone
she has moved and
number 11-28-47 then says as a personal thing, will not receive their
has not advised them of a change of address so
Bulletin and can give it to them now.
The Soviet asks her to call
KOUKHARENKO in order to change that address and asks for the name
of the (Cuban) Cultural Attache. DURAN says it is Teresa PROENZA
whose number is 14-13-26. The Soviet thanks her.

SECRET
April 1977
SUBJECT: Theory re MOSKALEV, Yuriy Ivanovich and
Unidentified Man
That Yuriy Ivanovich MOSKALEV might be identifiable with
the "unidentified man" going into and coming out of the Soviet
Embassy in Mexico City in October 1963. The "unidentified man"
was recently identified by SLIPSTREAM as a KGB type by name of
"Yuri" whom he knew in Moscow in 1964.
According to travel records MOSKALEV was in the
USSR in 1964; in the U.S. in Otober 1963 .
MOSKALEV functions officially as a Soviet scientist
and often attends international conferences. He
has been in contact with known GRU Soviet diplomat in
the U.s.
MOSKALEV bears a striking resemblance to composite of
"Saul" in book Appointment in Dallas who claims he was involved
in the assassination of President Kennedy. "Saul" claims:
he crossed border into U.S. illegally and was in
Dallas on 20 November.
That he had been to Mexico City, had a contact in
Soviet Embassy there, in 1963, and that he knew the
identity of OSWALD because he (OSWALD) had been
fingered to him in Mexico City.
---
## Page 7

: 2 -
- that OSWALD was involved in the Kennedy assassination
plot, but that he, "Saul", fired shots that killed
Kennedy.
that two hours after the assassination he, "Saul",
was out of the U.S.
That he used limp as a
disguise.
QUESTIONS
1. Could MOSKALEV be "Saul"?
2. Could MOSKALEV, therefore, be mystery man who
boarded plane in Mexico City for Havana on 22
November 1963?
3. Was assassination a Soviet comspiracy without
Cuban knowledge?
RECOMMENDATION
1. Can we obtain voice tape of MOSKALEV, since he
has delivered speeches at scientific conferences
in U.S. and abroad?
2.
If so, could we arrange to have McDonald (unwittingly)
hear it, to see if he recognizes it as that of "Saul"?

Can we find, hotc that PENKOVSKY identified of

May I see PENKOVSKIY's 201 file for period 61-63?
Get photos and check out MOISEEV and BABKOV.
Via CI Staff, find out if we can show photo to DERYABIN
and ROSTVOROFF?
Could MOSKALEV be Dept 13? Could OSWALD have met with
him in Mexico City clandestinely in 1963?

SUBJECT:
Possible Identity of the "Unidentified Man"
Photographed in Mexico City in October 1963
REFERENCES: A. Photos Taken in Mexico City by Mexico City
Station
B. Paperback Book "Appointment in Dallas"
C. Soit File, Headquarters Information on
Yuriy Ivanovich MOSKALIV, Possible
"Unidentified Man"
1. Photographs of the unidentified nan were taken by
our Mexico City Station on 2,3,4, and 15 October 1963, going
into or coming out of both the Cuban and Soviet Embassies in
Mexico City. Copies were provided to the FBI in Dallas.
Texas on 22 November 1963. Although cropped copies have
appeared in various works, including Volume XX, page 691, of
the Warren Commission Report, and the book "Appointment in
Dallas", to our knowledge the individual has never beeni
identified.
2. On 17 March 1977, a former member of the Cuban General
Directorate of Intelligence (DGI) recognized photographs of
the unidentifid man as Yuri LNU, a KGB officer, whom he met
in Moscow in 1964 while attending an intelligence course
there. He said that Yuri, a fluent English and Spanish
speaker, was acting as a trouble shooter for the Cukan grouD.

the Cuban and Bulgarian groups quartered in the same building
in Moscow. Any time the Cubans had a problem, Yuri would solve
it for them. Yuri was a good friend of Juan (pseudo) a KGB
officer who taught the Cubans about the Agency (CIA) and the
West German intelligence apparatus. Juan told the DGI member
that he had served in Mexico for about 20 years and in the U.S.
• clandestinely for about 10 years (specific dates unknown). Yuri
was entrusted with their welfare only, and did not attend classes
with the Cuban group.
3. SE/X travel records were reviewed in search of an
individual by the name of Yuri who possibly fit the description
of the unidentified man. This lead to an individual by the
name of Yuriy Ivanovich MOSKALEV, a Soviet, reportedly a Doctor
of Medical Sciences, who has participated in international
scientific conferences for the USSR since 1962 or earlier.
Although there is no official 201 file on MOSKALEV, there is a
sizable dossier on him in the Central Reference Service.
Many
of the documents in his dossier are 00 reports from U.S.
scientists concerning MOSKALEV's attendance and behavior at
scientific meetings. It is obvious that he has a much greater
knowledge of the English language than he admits. His capability
is said to improve greatly after a few drinks; however, it is
noted that he rarely, if ever, drank at the scientific meetings.
It is also noted that on
• occasions he reportedly was not
qualified to represent the Soviets at a particular conference.
His papers rarely, if ever, were specific, or presented new data.

the Disguise and Identification Section of OTS/GAD compared
photos of the unidentified man with photos of My Yuriy
Ivanovich MOSKALEV from the FBI, L

It was their opinion that MOSKALEV could very likely ke

Identi-Kit Model composite of an individual who told the
author in London in 1972 that he was involved in the assassination
of President Kennedy. The composite of that individual (code
name "Saul"), whose real name is unknown to the author, kears
a striking resemblance to the photos of Yuri! Ivanovich

in his book that he met "Saul" at an office in CIA Headquarters
sometime after the Bay of Pigs invasion, and that a colleague

of "Saul" as given in McDonald's book, and MOSKALEV.

was a middle-European, so probably
grew up with German

Language.
"Saul"
spoke English
like an American.
Pg. 143 - "Saul" said he came
back to the U.S. for a short period
one time, lived in Southern
Calif. for about a month, or
six weeks, then moved to Mexico.
Said business was good in Mexico,
and that made
it easy, or easier,
to try to make contact with whoever
was trying to make contact with
him.
Pg. 164 - "Saul":
said a contact he
named Troit would have OSWALD in
Mexico City 26 Sept to 3 Oct.L3)
and that OSWALD would call on
both the Cuban Consul and Soviet!
Consud.
"Saul" said he did not have a
photo of OSWALD but had a contact
in the Soviet Embassy would do
the job (identify OSWALD) for him.
Saul said OSWALD did show up in
Mexico City and was fingered to
him. He sat cloe to him in
restaurans and cafeterias.
MOSKALEV has much greater
knowledge of English than
he pretends or admits. .
knew/ According to our records,
OSWALD was in Mexico City
between those dates, and was in
contact with the Cuban and Soviet
Consuls.

"Saul" had to master the art of
the border. On evening of the
crossing borders illegally, so that
20th of Nov he was in Dallas.
no record is kept. False passports
are easiest methods.
Page 177: "Saul" desceibed how
he shot President Kennedy from
2nd story window of County
Records Bldg.,
Page 178:
"Saul" said that he
used "limp" disguise" out of
bldg., and in 2 hours was out of
the U.S.
-
Could "Saul" be mystermy man who
boarded plane for Havana? See
DIRECTOR 36054. Flight from Mexico
City reportedly delayed from 1700 to
2200 hours for passenger who arrived
at 2130.
Page 182: McDonald remembers
"Saul's" statement that long
before the Warren Commission even
existed he had been told that
there was a possibility that
such a
bullet would ke planted
to tie in OSWALD's rifle positively
to the shooting.
It therefore appears that the mere
existence of CE No. 399 tends
io prove the accuracy of "Saul"s
statement and the presence of :!
conspiracy.

"Saul" was telling true story.

and officially backed cover-up.

Herman KIMSEY (what was true name?)
was

Agency.

"Saul" moves from
country to country, avoiding the
U.S. except in extremis but
keeping in touch with his contacts

calls THEM. Spends much time
in
Europe. Has no wife, children,
friends. Is voracious reader.

The results of this type comparison are rarely absolute and are
isually limited by poor photo quality or differences in viewing angle

most impressive work Involves the success he has bad in removing copious
amounts of plutonium and other transuranium products from humans using DIPA.

Lafuma explained that from his point of view he was concerned with only
two prinary aspects of human contact with plutonium, inhalation and wounds.
His studies have shown, of course, that the earlier trcatment is begun the
better the results; but also he has found 1t caster to decontaminate an
area of the body exposed to plutonium through contact or a wound than to
remove It from the lungs.
Lafuma has used
intravenous Injection exclusively
for the treatment of wounds and finds that a very significant amount of the
transuranium particles are discharged from the body in urine.
For the treatment
of inhaled particles, Lafuma has used both DTPA aerosola and
injection.
his results
from Injection are better than the use of aerosole, even 1n luag

2. It appears to me that the Soviets have
a strong tendency toward experi
ments that enable them to study radiation effects on large animals.
They do not seem interested in radiation response - the effect on tissue;
on the other hand, they concern themselves with metabolic effecte; which
are important, because they are related to the ability to suppress Immunity
mechanisms.
They stress Immunology and transplante.

Did Symposium contributions include significant advancements in research
on controlled thermonuclear reactions that nay be useful in determining
the feasibility of initiating uncontrolled thermonuclear reactions solely
without the use of fissionable materials which would produce large amounts.
of energy, on the order of one kiloton or greater?
To the best of my knowledge there was no formal discussion of any
nuclear reactions, as such.
The great majority of the material presented
had to do with biological effects, and the physicists at the Symposium,
were using high energy machines largely to produce the radiation that'
would be comparable to solar flare radiation..
Was anything presented on effects of space radiation on the human body?
I can recall no Soviet references to the Vostok flights.
The
two Soviet
speakers confined their references to purely laboratory observations.
There was a number of US papers, and as
I recall one from France,
oriented to space flight conditions, however..
Were there results in the use of drugs in radiation protection?
charder 270 dad 59r
I do not recall anyone's discussing drugs-Soviet or other.
And I think
that although research in drugs is continuing many radiobiologists are
not very optimistic about their value. This is something many of us
have reservations about.
Was anything presented on the characteristics of a bio-element used for
space radiation detection including the number required for an extended
space probe and the method of transmitting information.

There is no conclusion about the

His comment was to
une arrest that the stucies of radiation lethality done usually in small
inianlo tors not to the point, were not germane to problems in the
trian case, and that to be useful these studies should be done
in animals
closer to man.
What is your critique of his argument?

to effects in the central nervous system-they are very interested in
this and US people have tended to ignore this area.. So conceivably:

respect to distinguishing among the effects of various energies of
neutrons and the techniques for reasuring these energies.
I think it
may be safely assumed that the Russians are using very advanced methods
for detecting and measuring the various energies of neutrons--the
dosintry of neutrons. In the biological effect, I think they are
way behind us.
But they are much involved in the potentials of neutron

of High Energy".
His paper showed that both their production of high
energy protons in the laboratory and the measurements of these protons
with respect to animal work is sophisticated. They are 'advanced in this.
I think this is the distinction to be made: they are more advanced in
the technology of producing high energy radiations and the measurement
of these than they are in biological effects of radiation.
lo Was anything reported on effects of radiation on non-regenerative tissues
such as the brain?

The Russians are very much involved in CNS effects of radiation, but they

One, gets the impression that whereas Russians physics is mechanistic
and quite indistinguishable fron ours in that respect,
Russian biology
is impregnated with philosophy.
doskalev. for example, spoke of how
• the body
"adapts" to radiation in the sense that a single animal adapts.
Most, biologists will reserve this vord to changes in a species over a
very long period. I suppose you could consider wound healing as
adaptation in a sense. But wester biology: sees certain events:
occuring in an organism as the consequence: ofin wound which can be
described withuut resort to notims of teleological adaptation.
This
philosophical tendency has been a damaging element in Russian biology,
I believe.
28. Qo. Here there results in the use
of drugs in radiation-protection?

A.
I can, recall nothing on protective drugs from'anybody.
There was here

and cosmic ray attenuations?
Hell, errin, there was no specific mention of this, but the interest in
the rolative biological effectiveness factor for neutrons and cosnic
was a major concer of the whole Symposium:

It was there by implication. The fact that they were talking about the
of dose fields, the radiation of
experimental
protons of high energy, implies that they would be using some kind of
shielding to get the animal exposed.
44. Q.
This contribution would have been in Afanas"yev's paper "Production and
Investigation of Dose Fields for Irradiation.
of Experimental Animals
with Protons of High Energy"?
Aa. Yes.

NoviRova and bustureve.
They report that 1u to 18 per cent
of the inhaled radioactivity was found in the lungs of rats
and dogs after exposure, and that five per cênt was cleared
by cillasy activity. These data are difficult to evaluate
since the particle sizes of the aerosols were broadly des
cribed as being bedreen 1 and 4. Translosation of the
Inhaled radioisotopes was similar to that reported by others.
Biological effects
were reported only for intratracheal ad-
ministration of Cell and Rul06.. They report degenerative
inflarmation of the lung and aplastic changes in the bone
marrow accompanied by leukopenla in acute stages. In longer
term studies they find chronic premonia and degenerative
and proliferative changes of the bronchial epitheliun

They also reported reduction of bone

As I told you, the military on the spot (General Harkins) and
State agree with these estimates.
They also agree in denying that
either of them was responsible for the backgrounder that produced
the story. However, it is clear from paragraph one of this
message that some American in the Kontum area did talk to the
UPI correspondent. Both the military and State now realize very
well that this is the kind of thing they better not do again.

THINK THAT THE BULK OF NORTH VIETNAMESE IN LAOS WOULD BE TRANSFERRED

NORMALLY PUT INFILTRATORS THROUGH SPECIAL TRAINING AND INDOCTRINATION

MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, External Activities Branch, SSD
SUBJECT
: Manuscript by David Phillips
1. The following passages are a compilation of
observations made by the SSU regarding Mr. Phillips'
manuscript.
The comments are by no
means a total list
of reservations concerning the submitted chapters but
those noted from the perspective of the SSU.
2.
In general the undersigned felt somewhat enlight-
ened but rather uncomfortable in reading the submitted
manuscript.
This uneasy feeling appears to be based upon
two impressions.
there is an obvious
effort on the part of Mr. Phillips to
Throughout the text'rset the record straight"
with regard to events,
techniques and activities involving
CIA.
Regrettably, as
is often the case when one attempts
to clarity and present the real facts, there is a possibility
of further

Because of the various ramifications of the activities of the
iracting that
ambiguous circumstance.
Agency, the SSU gained the feeling that more was lost rather
than won in Mr. Phillips'
efforts.
The second disarming im-
pression is that because an individual has proved to be
an
effective and successful CIA operations officer, there is no
clear-cut assurance that he can achieve the same success
as an
author. The SSU was continually pained by Mr. Phillips' efforts
to employ certain techniques often seen in spy fictions.
The
problem with author Phillips is that he is not writing fiction
and has been identified as a former CIA employee with over
25 years in intelligence service.
Although Mr. Phillips
labored to introduce some humor into his manuscript, some of
his anecdotes appear to be in bad taste.
3. The following comments are codified to complement
those parts of the manuscript reviewed in this reading.
Epilogue
Page 6: Although Mr. Phillips makes a considerable effort
to conceal the true identity of "Abe"

, there is a question
as to whether the fact that two cables were sent from Head-
quarters to
in May 1973, and if this manuscript is the
proper vehicle to surface such information.

CONFIDENTIAL
Page 13: Mr. Colby is quoted by the author indicating
certain information revealing complications between
Mr. Colby and Dr. Kissinger.
In addition to breaching
personal confidences,
the author contradicts what he had
indicated earlier to
be an intent to permit Mr. Colby to
speak for himself.
Page 14-18: Mr. Phillips again refers to "Abe" and
his evaluations of the various congressional select comnittees
investigating the CIA.
In effect these comments are suggestive
alities critical of the Agency.
Chapter 3
Page 5: Have the circumstances regarding Mr. Wisner's
death
ever been surfaced with such particulars as provided
in this text?
Page 14: The information regarding the "laundering of
money" as set forth in
the first paragraphs of this page
serves as a confirmation of official involvement in such
activities. This should be deleted.
Page 21: There is a serious
question raised regarding
the author connecting Ernest Hemmingway and the Havana Chief
of Station implying the prospect of a professional as well as
personal affiliation.
Page 48: If it is in fact correct, has it ever been
officially acknowledged that a U.S. citizen, a businessman
in Havana, implied by the author as being a
CIA agent was
executed?
• Note: This chapter is replete with a profusion
of illustrations of tradecraft and operational activities
too numerous to set forth.
Chapter 5
Page 1: Mr. Phillips in his writing provides a
historical chronology of senior assignments within the Agency
with particular reference
to the LA or WH Division.
This is
Illustrated on this page in his reference to Colonel King
"regaining leadership of the WH Division".
Anyone interested
in noting
the organizational hierarchy and key personalities
the WH or LA Division during the period of Mr. Phillips'
renure with the Agency, would be alded considerably on page 2
and further as the author proceeds to identify Mr. Winston
Scott as the Chief of Station Mexico.

Page 3: Although it has been publicly surfaced that
Mr. William F. Buckley had worked for ClA in the past,
the
author on
this page now ties him in with Howard Hunt
and
Mexico City and further as an American contract agent.
The
best interests of the Agency are not served nor for that
matter the interests of Mr. Buckley and Mr. Hunt are not
served by such revelations.
Page 4-6: The SSU believes it is totally unwise to
have the mission and organization of
the Mexico City Station
outlined
as explicitly as contained in these pages.
Page 5-6: The above observation is further complicated
by the author's remarks
regarding operations levied against
the Cubah Embassy in Mexico.
Page 8: The SSU further challenges the information set
forth on this page regarding the biographic details of
Mr. Winston Scott's assignments in Cuba,|
Eur Division
and Mexico City.
15-1
Page 15: The undersigned does not believe the content
of the information set forth regarding the Agency's procedures
associated with the purchasing of scotch liquor.
He is implying
things which may perhaps have been unique to that station but
certainly has not been a worldwide practice.
Mr. Phillips'
anecdote about the prospects of the Agency printing counterfeit
tax stamps and the details involved in such planning, even
though perhaps presented in jest would not be viewed
as such
in the eyes of many individuals in the United States today.
Page 16: Because Philip Agee has revealed the secret of
the camera operation in his book, is it necessary for Mr. Phillips
to repeat and in effect collaborate what a diseffected employee
of the Agency is purporting?
a friendly alumnus of the
Agency, this serves as a verification of Agee's statements and
provides a violation of sources and methods of this organization.
Page 18-19: Pursuing the aspect of sources and methods,
the SSU questions the author's anecdote regarding the identif-
ication and employment techniques of the material "why me".
It would seem that in so far as any chemical or technical
devices of this nature used by the Organization should not be
surfaced in a book such as this.

The specifics associated with the Cuban

experiences realized in his Agency duties.
Page 33-35:

Secret Service when they are on assignment with the President.
Page 31: Throughout the manuscript the author in his
narration confirms the fact that CIA has stations located around
the world and in his writing
procedes to verify the location of
these stations.
The comments relating to where he was assigned
and where others in the Agency have been or are assigned, not
only relates to the South America area but on this page the
author confirms the fact that there was a CIA station
Other than in the change in name there is no
etfort made to dispel the prospect that the station continues.
Page 42-44: Although it is a most timely subject,
information regarding any U.S. Government effort to assassinate
Castro is
highly explosive.
Mr. Phillips is reporting information
which he has privy to as a direct result of his Agency exper-
iences. These should not be contained in this book.

be avoided.
Chapter 8

The author's remarks concerning CIA support
and methods, and should be deleted.
Pagés 13-21: It is understandable but regrettable that
the author continues to single out sensitive issues; 1.e.
assassination
and in this
instance CIA involvement in Chile.
The information contained in these pages are volatile and
should not be included in such a commercial venture.
Any
such information is liable for quotations out of context
warping or reinforcing the involvement that the Agency did
have in the political activities of Chile.
Page 25:
For the first time the SSU was made aware of
the daughter of a CIA officer who was stripped naked and held
with a knife at her throat by political assassins.
If this
is in fact a true statement, I question the value of such an
inclusion in this text particularly in light of the terrorism
problems that this Agency and other elements of the U.S.
Government are experiencing around the world.
Page 27: The statement the author makes with regard to
promotion to GS-17 is not correct.
Page 31: I believe that Office of Communications should
be consulted on the entire section relating to communications,
communications personnel and the Office of Communications,
however, the sSu raises the question concerning the inclusion
of teletype decoding speeds on this particular page.
Chapter 10
Note: Chapter 10 continues in the same vein as all of the
other chapters.
• It further reinforces the earlier remarks that
the more one
tries to explain and clarify a point the more
confusing it becomes.
The remarks contained in pages 23 and
24 regarding Chile are illustrative of this.

CONFIDENTIAI
In summary, the ssu joins those who feel that this
book would better have been left unwritten. It is a text
replete with names, details, operational information and
close personal
privileged information based upon the author's
assignments which has been rendered into a commercial version
of Mr. Phillips'
affiliation with this agency for over 25
years.
This manuscript reinforces
the difficulty of a retired
operations officer to develop a non-fiction text which is
attractive to the public but does not contain information
regarding intelligence personalities, organization and sources
and methods.

served overseas with CIA and had seen many people killed. He said
that CIA was a bunch of dirty cut-throats and that he would not be
surprised if they sent one of their men to cut his throat. He also said

interested in Dalzell. FBI files
link Dalzell to charges of trans-
porting stolen property, fraud,
and gun-running.
Dalzell was in touch with the
New Orleans office of the DCS
on 15 November 1960, 20
January 1961, and 1 February
1961, in connection with his
proposals for a Radio Free Cuba.

Relationship to Case
In a Vancouver Sun interview
printed 8 August 1967 Norton
claimed that he started working
for CIA in mid-1957, that the.
association ended in November
1966, and that in 1958 he
delivered $150, 000 in CIA funds
to David Ferrie for transfer
to Cuba, and that in 1962 Clay
Shaw passed him $50,000 to
be couriered to Monterrey,
Mexico, where Norton gave
this sum to Oswald. On 15
July 1967 a representative of
Garrison's office flew with
Norton to New Orleans, where
his story was taped. Garrison
has said that he plans to use
Norton as a witness during
Shaw's trial.
Donald P. Norton
Facts re CLA
Norton's story is a lie. He
has had no link with CIA. FBI
reporting shows that Donald
Philetus Norton, undoubtedly
the same person, was discharged
from the U.S. Army (according
to his mother) "with a nervous
condition"; he has a record of
nine arrests, between 1949 and
1958 alone, for embezzlement,
forgery, bad checks, etc.
• Gordon D. Novel
Relationship to Case
Novel has claimed CLA affiliation,
implied Agency ties, and denied
Agency ties.
Garrison has stated
that Novel was a CIA agent and
that one of his lawyers, Stephen
Plotkin, is paid by CLA. Novel
was polygraphed by a private de-
tective in McLean, Va., so that
the newspapers linked him to
CIA. He has alleged that he and
Facts re CIA
All of Novel's claims about
association with CIA are lies.
(The Agency has also had no
tie to Stephen Plotkin.) His
motives remain obscure. One
possibility is that he is in
collusion with Garrison.

others robbed the Schlumberger
bunker in Houma, La., at CLA's
instigation and that he ran the
Evergreen Advertising Agency
in New Orleans as a CIA front.
He left in a New Orleans apartment
a letter, subsequently handed to
Garrison, implying a tie between
Novel and CIA operation Double -
Chek. On 28 May 1967 Novel sent
to the DCI a telegram about the
Garrison investigation. On 22
August 1967 he telephoned the DCS
office in New Orleans and said
that he would try to keep CIA from
becoming involved in Garrison's
investigation. In a Chicago TV
interview of 15 May 1967 Novel
said that he met Garrison in 1966
and later worked for him as a
counter-audio expert. He left
New Orleans for Columbus, Ohio,
shortly after the Garrison inves-
tigation started. Garrison's
subsequent efforts to secure his
extradition were not successful.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
Reportion Examination of Naterial
Related to Lee Barey Oswald Case
The undersigned have examined all the material relating
to the lee Harvey Oswald case provided to us by the warren
ommission and have found no indication that any of the
...A.L.
Items was used for a cryptographic purpose or for passing
secret information:
a. A detailed examination of the dictionaries failed
to show any indication that they had been used in connection
with a dictionary code.
b. A revlew of the letters of all the correspondents
related to the case, as well as of the Oswald Diary and
other documents, provided no suggestion of the use of an
open code.
c. Perforations which suggested the use of a grille
system appeared on two pages of the Russian novel, GLAZA
KOTORYE: SPRASHIVAXUL,
"Questioning Eyes"- However, the
manner of perforating only a few letters does not conform
to any known systen. For purposes of further study, we
would like to obtain the original of the novel on long-ter
or permanent loan. Ne belleve, nevertheless, that it is most
Itkely that the letters were cut out for some purpose
related to oswald's photographic experiments.
d. The appearance of the term "niero dots" on page 44
of Lee Oswald's address book aroused our suspicions.:
particularly in that it was associated with the address of
the photographic firm where he was once employed. There
was nothing to indicate to us that micro dots vere actually
used and we have had to assuma that appropriate technical
tests were made by the FBI or CIA.

Oswald's soviet made portable radio recelver and
Its assoclated power supply were examined and tested by
R34 with negative results. The radio (for purposes of the
tests the power supply was considered an integral part)
conformed closely to one examined by the British In 1959.
A COPY of R34's findings 1s attached.
f, The names appearing in Lee's and Marina's address
books have been checked against NSA files but no CoMtiT
references have been aiscovered. Collateral references
held in the tiles have only confirmed knovn information.
A copy of the report 18 attached.
In addition to the Information on the addresses
developed in the personality check, a separate study of
NSA address files is being made.
• White this study is
not yet complete, results have so far been negative and
there is no reason to expect that anything beyond what
the personality check has already turned up will be
discovered.

MEMORINDUM FOR DRO TORDELLA
SUBJECT: Letter for the President's Commission
1. Please note that I have eliminated two items from the original
Memorandum for the Record on the examination of the Oswald materials:
These are the reference to micto dots" (paragraph d) and the COMINT
reference in paragraph 1.
l suggest that you informally (possibly by telephone) call the
Commission's attention to the appearance of the term micro dots" on
page 44 or Oswald's address book. You might Indicate that this reference
aroused our suspicion but that we do not feel competent to make an
exhaustive examination of the materials for the presence of micro dots -
such examination should be conducted by the FBI or CIA. If micro dots
are actually found, we would be happy to collaborate to the füllest
degree required in the analysis of these dots.
=3:
I do not believe a statement that we have checked the names
against the NSA files needs to be made since:
a. The results were negative and
b. It identifies the existence of sensitive COMINT records.
Of course, we had found something, a positive report would have been
required:
4- Mr. Amold has reviewed the text of the letter and accepts it
as unclassified under the circumstances.

200 Maryland Avenue N.E,

ATIN: Mr. J. Lee Rankin
General Counsel
Doar Mi. Rankin;
skilled cryptologists at NSA carefully examined the materials
relating to the lee Harvey Oswald case provided by the Warren Con-
mission. The results are as follows:
a, A detailed examination of the two dictionaries revealed
no indication of their use for aryptographic purposes.
b. In the correspondence, the Oswald Diary, and the other
documets examined there were no evidences of the use of any type
of cryptography, to include the use of an open code.
C:
Certain letters had been removed from pages 150 and 152
of the Russian novel, GLAZA KOTORYE SPRASHIVAYUI, "Questioning
Eyes." Eight letters had apparently been out from page 152 as follows:
Line 10
Line 11
Line 13
Line 16
Line 24
Line 25
Line 27
One letter had been removed from page 150; however no significance
Is attributed to the removal of this letter since it corresponds in exact

position to one of the letters removed from page 152, It was con-
cluded that this letter had been accidently removed by the cutting
process applied to page 152 and that its removal resuited from the
application of excessive pressure on the cutting tool when the latter
on page 152 was taken out.
The sample is considered too small for any valle conclusions to
be reached as to the purposes for which the above noted letters were
removed. It is considered most unlikaly that this process of letter
removal has any cryptographic implication.
d. The Russian "Tourist" portable radlo was examined for
cryptologie evidence. The radio appears to be a normal raceiver and
there was no evidence of its use for any other purpose.
The names appearing in Lee's and Marina's address
books were checked, No evidence of cryptologie Implication was
found.
Although the results of the examination of the materials provided
by the Commission are essentially negative, further study of these
materials will be made. Il any rasults are obtained, the Commission
will be advised. However, It Is considered most unlikely that any-
thing beyond what is reported above will be discovered.
Sincerely,

A Cuban revolutionary group.
2. Findings:
U.544 datesy Hay 19, luba, Foreign Service Despatch
The Revolutionary Government has skillfully maneuvered
Rolando CUBELA, the President of the FEU, and his pro-Communist
cohorts into a position of power.
First, on May 7, it was CUBELA
who was given the task of inciting the mob and bruiting the fact
/ that the powers-that-be disapproved of Aurelaino SANCHEZ Arango.
Communist "goon-squad" tactics had become so vicious that even many
students who had heretofore been circumspectly apolitical are afraid
to attend classes.
The Vice Secretary of the School of Agronomy asked
how it was that if the CUBELA leadership so deplored violence that it
had remained impassive in the face of the physical violence perpetrated
against his person by members of the Communist Youth from the Instituto
e la Habana, who had entered the University grounds completely armed
in can be ta came carrying arms, in

members present. There are two members who are present who
are still remaining and the Chair will swear the witness.
Will the witness state his name, please.
MI. Hidalgo. Balmes Nieves Hidalgo, JI.
Mrs. Burke. Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you
give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the
truth, so help you God?
Mr. Hidalgo. I do.
Mrs. Burke. The hearing is in closed session pursuant to
the vote that was taken before the recess and that vote still
remains and the hearing is in closed session. If there is
anyone in the room who is not a member of the staff or an
attorney for the witness, they will leave.
Let the record show that the committee is in closed
session.
I would like to read a brief statement concerning the
subject of the investigation. This committee is operating
under the mandate of House Resolution 222 to conduct a full and
complete investigation and study into the circumstances surround-
ing the assassination and death of President John F. Kennedy,
including determining whether the existing laws of the United
States concerning the protection of the President and investi-
gatory jurisdiction and capability of agencies and departments
are adequate in their provisions and enforcement and whether
there was full disclosure of evidence and information among

agencies and departments of the United States Government and
whether any evidence of information not in the possession of
an agency or department would have been of assistance in
investigating the assassination and why such information was
not provided or collected by that agency or department and to
make recommendations to the House if the committee deems it
appropriate for the amendment of existing legislation or the
enactment of new legislation.
This is the mandate of the committee.
You may be seated, Mr. Hidalgo.
Would your counsel state his name.
Mr. Gaines. Stanley H. Gaines, 150 Little Falls Street,
Falls Church, Virginia.
Mrs. Burke. The staff will proceed to interrogate.
MI. Goldsmith. Thank you.
Mrs. Burke, prior to the beginning of this hearing Mr.
Gaines asked me if he might make a brief statement and I
indicated to him I had no problem with that.
Mrs. Burke. Certainly.
MI. Gaines. I would like to assure this distinguished
committee that Mr. Hidalgo has been apprised of the charter
of the committee, of the seriousness of the committee's charter
and the scope of it which is considerably broad and intends to
answer all relevant questions to the best of his recollection.
I would simply like to impress on the committee, although

I recognize it may be carrying coals to New Castle, that a
man who has spent many years as an officer in the Central
Intelligence Agency has a conditioned reluctance to disclose
methods notwithstanding the acknowledged entitlement of this
committee to receive such information if the committee deems
the information pertinent but I raise this point only by way
of appealing to the committee as we may from time to time, if
considered necessary, to carefully weigh the pertinence or
relevance of indispensability of names of persons who may have
risked life or limb or liberty or careers in the service of
the United States. If that information is deemed relevant,
there is no question that it will be provided if we are called
but there may be cases where the committee feels that although
it would be entitled to the information it can do without it
and in such cases we would request that the committee forego
the identification of persons.
That includes the identity of the witness himself. It
would be tragic or could be tragic if the fact were disclosed
to the press, for example, that he appeared before this com-
mittee in the capacity of a witness.
Finally, only by way of underscoring what I have said and
notwithstanding Acting Director Carlucci's letter to the
committee, this officer, like others in his category, feels a
personal fiduciary responsibility toward persons whom he
induced to work in a clandestine capacity for the United States

Government and whose efforts in that regard he directed which
makes it additionally difficult, if not painful, for him to
disclose who those persons were, particularly if some of them
are still in hostile territory.
Having said that, there are no reservations on MI.
Hidalgo's part to answer any questions, save of course his
privilege of self-incrimination if required.
That is all.
Mrs. Burke. Thank you very much.
Counsel may proceed.
TESTIMONY OF BAIMES NIEVES HIDALGO, JI.
Mr. Goldsmith. For the record would you please state your
name and address.
Mr. Hidalgo. Balmes Nieves Hidalgo, JI., 403 Silver Rock
Road, Rockville, Maryland.
Mr. Goldsmith. Mr. Hidalgo, do you also go by the name of
Barney Balmes Hidalgo?
MI. Hidalgo. Barney is a childhood name and so much easier
to pronounce rather than Balmes and nearly everyone, including
relatives, calls me Barney.
Mr. Goldsmith. I take it the answer to my question is yes.
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes.
Mr. Goldsmith. Thank you.
Is it true that you have been employed by the CIA?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.

Mr. Goldsmith. For how many years were you affiliated
with the CIA?
Mr. Hidalgo. Eighteen.
Mr. Goldsmith. What years were those, sir?
MI. Hidalgo. 1952 through 1958. I am sorry.
Mr. Goldsmith. Would you like to clarify that?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, that does not make sense. You must
understand there are going to be lapses here. 1952 through
1970. February of 1952 to February of 1970. Thank you.
Mr. Goldsmith. In what general capacity did you work for
the CIA?
MI. Hidalgo. I was an intelligence agent.
Mr. Goldsmith. Now as an intelligence agent for the CIA
were you required to sign the secrecy oath?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. In that regard I would like you at this
time to have an opportunity to read JFK Exhibit No. 94.
For the record that is the release letter of 23 March 1978
issued by Acting Director Carlucci to Chairman Stokes.
MI. Hidalgo.
Yes, sir, I am aware of it.
Mr. Goldsmith. Have you had a chance to examine that
exhibit?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you understand it?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.

Mr. Goldsmith. Mr. Hidalgo, on July 28, 1978, were you
interviewed by two staff employees of the Select Committee on
Assassinations?
Mr. Hidalgo. It was in July of 1978, yes.
Mr. Goldsmith. Mr. Hardway who is sitting on my left and
Mr. Berk who is sitting on my right.
Mr. Hidalgo. That is right.
Mr. Goldsmith. Subsequent to that interview did you have
any discussion with any employee of the CIA concerning what you!
told Mr. Berk and Mr. Hardway?
Mr. Hidalgo. Concerning what I told Mr. Berk and Mr.
Hardway, no, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. So no one from the CIA, I take it, dis-
cussed the substance of your discussion with Mr. Berk and Mr.
Hardway.
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is that correct?
Mr. Hidalgo. May I say they are no longer the people I
talked to because we are still friends and I see them occa-
sionally. They are not now with the CIA.
Mr. Goldsmith. I understand.
Has anyone from the agency discussed with you the substance
of your testimony that you are about to give here today?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.

intelligence agent for the CIA. Is there a difference between
a case officer and an intelligence agent?
MI. Hidalgo. Not in my meaning of the word, no, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Could you give the committee some back-
ground in your particular areas of expertise as an intelligence
agent?
Mr. Hidalgo. Well, general collection of information,
interrogation of suspected agents of foreign countries, methods
of acquiring information by many means, counterintelligence was
the fourth really.
Mr. Goldsmith. Were you generally involved in clandestine
activities?
Mr. Ridalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. I would like to focus now on the period
1960 through 1964 and I ask you to give the committee a summary
of the assignments that you had during that period.
Mr. Hidalgo. Well, from 1960 through 1964 I was assigned
to the division having to do with Cuba in general and the things
that were going on at that time between Cuba and the world in
general.
Mr. Goldsmith. Was that task force l that you were working
with?

Mr. Hidalgo. I don't recall the name of it.

Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever work with the JM wave station
in Miami?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Would you indicate to the committee where
specifically you were located during these assignments during
the period from 1960 to 1964?
Mr. Hidalgo. In Washington, Miami, New York City,
Philadelphia, New Orleans, Mexico, Guatemala, Salvador. I
believe I have covered them. If I left anything out, I don't
mean to. Puerto Rico.
Excuse me. There is an island a few miles off from
Puerto Rico and actually my work was not in Puerto Rico, it
was on this island.
Mr. Goldsmith. Fine. Now you indicated you spent some
time in Washington, D. C. Do you recall what time period you
spent in Washington, D. C.?
Mr. Hidalgo. Well, Washington, D. C., was my official
station.
Mr. Goldsmith. During that entire period?
Mr. Hidalgo.
Yes, sir. The others were tys.
Mr. Goldsmith. What is a TDY?
Mr. Hidalgo. Temporary duty stations.

Mr. Hidalgo. Domestic --
Mr. Goldsmith. Exploitation section during the period that
you were working for it.
Mr. Hidalgo. Not by that name. If you tell me what --
MI. Goldsmith. Specifically by that name, do you know
whether the agency had such a unit?
Mr. Hidalgo. I am not quite aware of it. I may know it
by some other name is what I am trying to say.
Mr. Goldsmith. Now you indicated a moment ago that you
spent some time in Mexico during the period 1960 through 1964.
Approximately how many times did you visit Mexico for the
agency?
Mr. Hidalgo. I am trying to recall this as best I can.
When the staff interviewed me I made the remark that I had been
there in 1964 and since then my wife corrected me on that. She
said, "You were not there, we were on our honeymoon in 1964 so

So it must have been 1961 and/or 1962,
I don't recall 1963 but 1961 and 1962 are the dates that really
now come to mind. Since then let me say I have been raking my
mind, going over in my mind everything and everything that I
did because I do want to cooperate with you.
Mr. Goldsmith. I understand.
Now what was the purpose of the trip to Mexico in 1961?
MI. Hidalgo. All the trips that I took to Mexico were in

connection with an operation I had going against the Communist
Party in Mexico.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is it possible, sir, that you were also
in Mexico in 19633
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't recall it now but like I say it has
been quite a few years ago.
Mr. Gaines. Counsel, may I simply point out to the
committee members what I think counsel knows, that Mr. Hidalgo
suffered a major stroke in 1958 and a minor one in 1964 and
that that may account for what would appear to be an unusual
lapse of memory. There are many things that he just cannot
remember or cannot remember when asked but there is no inten-
tion to evade any of your questions..
MI. Preyer. Thank you.
Counsel.
Mr. Goldsmith, Perhaps at this time I might ask, Mr.
Hidalgo, how old are you?
Mr. Hidalgo. I am 59 years old.
Mr. Goldsmith.. Mr. Hidalgo, have you ever examined your
office personnel file?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Now you have indicated you were involved
in an operation against the Communist Party in Mexico.
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes.
MI. Goldsmith, Were you also involved in any operations

Mr. Hidalgo. Not in Mexico, no, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. When you were in Mexico on these opera-
tions against the Communist Party, was the local CIA station
to your knowledge aware of your presence in Mexico?
Mr. Hidalgo. YEs, sir. I had the contact.
Mr. Goldsmith. So someone at the Mexico City station knew
you?

the operation against the Communist Party in Mexico?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir, I really don't.
Mr. Goldsmith. I believe you have indicated that to the
best of your recollection you were in Mexico two times during
this period.
Mr. Hidalgo. Two, perhaps three.
Mr. Goldsmith. Was the purpose of your visit each time
with regard to this operation against the Communist Party?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Mr. Hidalgo, without going into sources
or methods, I would like you to give just some general details
on this operation.
Mr. Hidalgo. The operation, as I say, took a couple of
visits to set up and culminated with my gathering every bit of
information from all of the files of the Mexican Communist
Party -- I mean all of the original files of the Mexican

Mr. Goldsmith. Did you work with any other individuals
on this project?
Mr. Hidalgo. I had this contact who assisted me in
satting up what we called a safehouse and put me in touch with
certain members of the Mexican police that assisted me in my
job.

Mexico City station?

one contact knew I was there and arranged things for me.

at that time?
Mr. Hidalgo. You mean to him or in my official capacity?

given to anyone else at the CIA?.

in Mexico City?
MI. Hidalgo. No, sir.

quarters?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.

operations in Mexico City aimed at the Cuban embassy or consulate?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. When you were in Mexico City were you
aware of the photo and telephonic surveillance operations which
the Mexico City station had against the Cuban and Soviet embassy

where it was located.
MI. Goldsmith. Do you know a woman named Sylvia Duran?
Mr. Hidalgo. Sylvia Duran. The name is familiar to me,
very familiar in hearing, but that is as far as I can go, I
mean truthfully.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you recall in your interview with Mr.
Berk and MI. Hardway when asked whether you used Sylvia Duran
your response was, "Sure do know her but I sure don't want to
discuss it"?
Mr. Hidalgo. Okay. I sure do know of her is what I
should have said. Now I am discussing it as to where I heard
it and I will tell you how that name popped up if you wish.
MI. Goldsmith. Please do.
MI. Hildago. Okay. In this operation that I did in
Mesico City I believe it was the last visit that when it was
finally accomplished I needed some information as to times and
places which would enable me to countervent the security of the
Communist Party security system. In other words, I wanted to
do my job and not get caught. The case officer there that I
had contact with said that he had someone, an agent, a Mexican
national, who could tell me these things and without giving me
her name, etc., we arranged or I arranged a method of meeting
her using intelligence trade craft to more cover my tracks,
cover her tracks so that we could meet and she mentioned this
name in the conversation but it had nothing to do with what I

was there for so when the name came up, the name popped into
my memory.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever meet with Sylvia Duran?
MI. Hidalgo. No, sir, not to my knowledge. I met one
woman there and she was someone else.
Mr. Goldsmith. To your knowledge did Sylvia Duran ever
assist you directly of indirectly in any operation?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know whether Sylvia Duran was
affiliated in any way with the CIA?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Do you know whether she was affiliated in
any way with Cuban intelligence?
Mr. Hidalgo. At the time when this contact told me of it
I tied the two together, yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Why did you make that connection?
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know. Now at that time it was
obvious to me as an intelligence agent that there was some
connection there but it was of no interest whatsoever to me.
I do remember that when I next saw this contact of mine I
mentioned the fact to him and let him proceed to do whatever
he wanted to.
Mr. Goldsmith. So for purposes of clarification, during
this period you felt that Sylvai Duran may have been connected
in some way with Cuban intelligence, is that correct?

Mr. Hidalgo. With Cuban operations. You know, the Cuban

Mr. Goldsmith. I am not sure that I understand. When
you say Cuban operations do you mean operations by the Cuban
government?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, rather than saying, yes, I took it for
granted that she was an agent of the Cuban intelligence. That
is why I told this contact and he took it from there to inves-
tigate further.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know whether that issue was ever
resolved?
MI. Hidalgo. No, sir, I never even bothered to check on
it.

MI. Hidalgo. No, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Are you familiar with the cryptonym AMMUG/I?
MI. Hidalgo.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Without disclosing the identity of this
individual would you tell the committee generally who he was?
MI. Hidalgo. AMMUG/1 was a Cuban intelligence officer,
he worked for Directorio General Intelligencia, DGI, the Cuban
government, the counterpart of CIA. He defected to Canada in
I believe 1964 and was brought into the United States and that
is what he did. He was a defector.

AMMUG/1 considered to be?
Mr. Hidalgo. It was quite an effective, important
defection.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is it fair to say he provided a wealth of
information?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Do you know his present whereabouts?
Mr. Hidalgo. I would suspect he is in Miami but I do not
know.
Mr. Goldsmith. When was the last time you saw him per-

handling this defector?
Mr. Hidalgo. I was his hand holder and interrogator for
all the time that he was in the washington area.
Mr. Goldsmith. How many personal contacts did you have
with him during that period?
MI. Hidalgo. Quite a few. I lived in the same apartment
that he did.
Mr. Goldsmith. So you saw him virtually on a daily basis?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir. All day I spent with him and night.

Mr. Hidalgo. From the time he got to Washington, D. C.,
until June -- see if I remember this date now. My wife will

The committee will permit compliance with the subpoena next
week by Tuesday, August 15, at two p.m.
I am sorry to interrupt you. You may proceed, Mr.
Goldsmith.
Mr. Goldsmith. Thank you.
Mr. Hidalgo, I believe my last question to you prior to
our recess was how long a time period have you actually spent
with AMMUG and you attempted to answer that question and my
recollection of your testimony is that you indicated the last
date that you spent with him but you never really told us when
you started spending time with him so again I would like to
ask you how much time, for how long a time period, did you
spend time with him?
Mr. Hidalgo.'
I don't recall the starting date but it
was immediately upon his arriving in the Washington area from
Canada.
MI. Goldsmith. Can you estimate how much time was
involved, a couple of months?
Mr. Hidalgo. Oh, yes. Total five, six months at one
time and then after this June date I again saw him for about
two or three weeks: so it was a bit of a time.
Mr. Goldsmith. During that five or six month period
initially you had daily contact with him I take it.
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir. I actually lived in the same

house he was in.
Mr. Goldsmith. Before we continue with AMMUG I have a
few further questions to ask about sylvia Duran. Did you file
a report concerning information you had received about Sylvia
Duran?
MI. Hidalgo. No. All I did in that case was I saw this
contact of mine in Mexico City and told him about it and it
would have been something like, look, so and so, I am here on
something else, you know, this is out of my bailiwick and I
have no interest in it but if you are interested to follow it
up, go ahead, and that was the end of it.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you recall telling Mr. Berk and Mr.
Hardway at the time of your interview with them that in fact
you had previous information concerning Sylvia Duran?
Mr. Hidalgo. To my case officer, yes; to my contact down
there.
Mr. Goldsmith. You didn't mean a written report?
Mr. Hidalgo. I didn't mean a formal written report, no.
When I came back I probably wrote a simple debriefing report
as to what I did during the time I was away, this was the normal
thing to do, but it would have been focused on my operation,
the success of it, etc.
Mr. Goldsmith. With regard to this operation I believe
you testified that you were in Mexico on two or three occasions!
For approximately how long a time period were you in Mexico on

each occasion?
Mr. Hidalgo. Let me see if I can recall that. It would
not have been more than a week with the exception of the last
one I think it was about ten to fourteen days.
Mr. Goldsmith. Now was it your understanding that this
woman who told you about sylvia duran, was it your understand-
ing that she reported regularly on Duran?
Mr. Hidalgo. No. I knew she reported regularly but not
specifically on Duran.
Mr. Goldsmith. Was she a close associate of Sylvia Duran?'
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know that. My interest in this
woman was simply one of getting my operation through success-
fully and protecting myself and others.
Mr. Goldsmith. I take it, returning to AMMUG, that this
individual was subjected to a series of intensive debriefings,
is that correct?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. And in the course of these debriefings I
take it that he provided information regarding Lee Harvey
Oswald, is that correct?
Mr. Hidalgo. Not to me he didn't, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. To whom did he provide information?
MI. Hidalgo. I don't know if he did. Not to me. All
the information that I was interested in getting from him and
my group was interested in was intelligence information of

Cuban operations against the United States and against other
countries and it was just to get us an insight eye into the
Cuban intelligence system.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know whether AMMUG provided infor-
mation concerning Oswald's contacts with DGI personnel in
Mexico City?
Mr. Hidalgo. He spoke about Mexico City and I remember
showing him many, many photographs from that situation that
you mentioned before, the photographic surveillance.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever show him any of the photo-
graphs from the Mexico City station that had been obtained on
Lee Harvey Oswald in Mexico City?
Mr. Hidalgo. All the photographs I remember showing him
were photographs provided to me by my direct superior in
Washington headquarters and I assumed that all of them were
from this surveillance. Now perhaps others were included in
that, I was not.
Mr. Goldsmith. I understand. : My question is do you
recall whether he was
shown any photographs of Lee Harvey
Oswald?
Mr. Hidalgo. Not to my recollection, I did not. Whether
he was shown photographs by my direct superior or at times when!
some other agent took over, I cannot comment on that but I did
not.

voice?
Mr. Hidalgo. Not to my knowledge. He was, as I say, at
times with other people but when my direct superior came in I
left. At times I needed relief, I needed to get away a little
bit, and other agents would come in.

Because of the compartmentation I had, I wanted not to know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you have any idea what the purpose of
the SI unit was?
MI. Hidalgo.
No, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Was any of the information concerning
Oswald sent to SI?
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Why would this information have been sent
to the SI unit?
Mr. Hidalgo. Disseminated to people that were interested
in it. Let's take, for example, that AMMUG said there is a

factory in Cifenasago or another part of Cuba that we guarded
because of this, that or the other thing, that would not be of
interest to me but I would
report it to my immediate superior
and it would not be of interest to him but he would funnel it
to somebody that might be interested in that information. So
information that we received on AMMUG was dispersed to many
parts of the agency.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did AMMUG provide any information with
regard to Sylvia Duran?
MI. Hidalgo. I don't know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did he provide any information in regard
to a woman named Louisa Calderon? .
Mr. Hidalgo. That would be Cul-nin-o my knowledge of

this was fourteen years ago and since then, and even before I
retired, I went on to other cases and I don't like to
Understand the mentality of the spy, if that is what you want
to call me, you compartment your mind and once you finish an
operation you botch it up very neatly and shove it away. It
is for everyone's good.

reference to a woman named Teresa Proenza Proenza? She was a
culture attache in Mexico City.

Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know. Again I don't recall that.
Remember, my main objective with AMMUG was knowing of my
opposite numbers in Cuba.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is your testimony today that AMMUG never
gave you personally any information concerning Oswald?
Mr. Hidalgo. That is my recollection. The name does not
por up to me.
That is one of the reports that I wrote down.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did Mr. Swenson -- AMMUG's I guess case
officer -- ever discuss with you the information that AMMUG
provided regarding Oswald?
Mr. Hidalgo. No. Mr. Swenson was my direct superior.
I reported to Mr. Swenson. Mr. Swenson did not report to me.
Do you follow?
Mr. Goldsmith. Yes.
Mr. Hidalgo. So if I heard anything from him it was not
my privy to know about
it. He would review the information I
got from AMMUG and if he ever came down to me and said, "What
about this?" it would be something that I had written and he
dir not understand.
Mr. Goldsmith. And he never asked you to question AMMUG
about Oswald?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.

with him. Sometimes he would talk for ten, twelve, fourteen,
sixteen hours. In the middle of the night he would get up and
could not sleep. He would be worried about his family in Cuba.
We would talk and play cards. All the time talking and cooper-
ating. I never bothered tape recording it, it was quite open.
Mr. Goldsmith. Were any of the sessions with AMMUG tape
recorded not necessarily involving you?
Mr. Hidalgo. They may have, I don't know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever receive information about a
DGI case officer in Mexico City named Ernesto?
Mr. Hidalgo. Ernesto. Yes, I believe I remember that
name but right now I could not tell you what it was. I prob-
ably reported on it.
Mr. Goldsmith. Pardon me?
Mr. Hidalgo. I probably reported on it then because that
was
something I was interested in. Any identification of DGI
agents I would immediately take down.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is this information that you would have
obtained from AMMUG or from someone else?

handled other defectors, remember.

referred to as Ernesto may have been an individual named Andres
Armona who also may have been a red headed Cuban. Is that
familiar?

are red headed Cubans so if that was said it would have
impressed me that much but the name sounds like I might have
heard it. Again you have access to any of my records at the
time and if it is there I would admit it but right now I cannot

Mr. Goldsmith. Did you know Win Scott?
MI. Hidalgo. I know him as I know Mr. Berk. Not partic-
ularly. Mr. Scott, here I am.
Mr. Goldsmith. Who was Win Scott?
Mr. Hidalgo. He was a member of the affair there of the
operations. I don't know what his other input was.

station?
MI. Hidalgo. I seem to remember that he was but I never
-- I am sorry.
MI. Goldsmith. How many personal contacts, if any, did
you have with Mr. Scott?

MI. Hidalgo. None.
Mr. Goldsmith. Were you involved in any operations for
MI. Scott?
Mr. Hidalgo. I may have been involved in operations that
he also was involved in, I don't know, but I was never directly
responsible to Mr. Scott as
i such. None of my trips to Mexico
were strictly IDYs and for one purpose only and so I was not
privy to any operation that he had there.
Mr. Goldsmith.. Do you know an individual by the name of
David Phillips?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Who was David Phillips?
Mr. Hidalgo. David Phillips is a personal friend of mine
and an intelligence officer, an excellent intelligence officer
of the agency.
Mr. Goldsmith. How did you get to know Mr. Phillips?
Mr. Hidalgo. In day-to-day operations at Washington.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you know MI. Phillips when he was in
Mexico City?
Mr. Hidalgo. I never saw him in Mexico City. I knew he
was in Mexico City but I never met with him there.
MI. Goldsmith. Were you involved in any operations with
Mr. Phillips at any time?
Mr. Hidalgo. I was involved in operations in which MI.
Phillips was involved in but never together.

Mr. Goldsmith. How often have you had personal contact
with Mr. Phillips?
Mr. Hidalgo. Then?
Mr. Goldsmith. Through the years.
Mr. Hidalgo. Through the years after he retired I called
him. We belonged to the same association. We are both retired
and I talk to him frequently.
Mr. Goldsmith. Was your relationship with him both a
business relationship as well as a personal friendship rela-
tionship?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes. More or actually friendship than
operational.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you know an individual named Maurice
Bishop?
Mr. Hidalgo. Again Mi. Bishop was in the organization but
I had no personal day-to-day open relationship with him.
Phillips, yes; Bishop, no. I knew them both and Phillips I
knew. I know MI. Berk is over there and I know Mr. Hardway is
over there but I have no relationships with them. Do you
follow me?
Mr. Goldsmith. Yes. I believe you indicated that with
1r. Phillips your relationship was both business and personal.
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes.
Mr. Goldsmith. Now with Mr. Bishop -- was this Mr. Maurice
Bishop?

Mr. Hidalgo. I believe that was the name, yes. His was
strictly a business knowledge.
MI. Goldsmith. How long has it been since you have seen
Maurice Bishop?
Mr. Hidalgo. Less than twice or three times in the hall
way somewhere.
Mr. Goldsmith. When was the last time that you saw him?
Mr. Hidalgo. It would have to be before 1970 somewhere.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know what position, if any, he held!
with the agency?
Mr. Hildago. He held a position higher than mine but I
did not know, you know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever have any personal contact
with MI. Bishop?
MI. Hidalgo. I don't believe so. If it was, it was not
that important that it would impress itself upon me.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did he work in the western Hemisphere
Division?
MI. Hidalgo. I think so but again I am not sure of all
the details.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know any other individuals who
were familiar with Mr. Bishop who have known him?
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know. Perhaps Mr. Swenson, perhaps
Dave Phillips.
MI. Goldsmith. Was
Mr. Bishop's office located at CIA

Mr. Hidalgo. I believe so.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you recall which floor his office was
located on?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, sir.
MI. Goldsmith. Do you know whether Mr. Bishop ever went
by any other name?
MI. Hidalgo. No, sir, I have no knowledge of any of his
other names.
Mr. Goldsmith. Would you make your best effort, please,

MI. Hidalgo. I don't know. This must seem strange to
you, it really must, I know but, you see -- How can I say it?
The relationship of one agent to another is a thing that you
try your best not to - not to know.
MI. Goldsmith. Was Mr. Bishop an administrator or a case
officer?
MI. Hidalgo. I would say his position was higher than
mine. A little honcho against a chief.
Mr. Goldsmith. Where did you generally see him on those
occasions when you did see him?

Mr. Hidalgo. I imagine in the agency perhaps.
MI. Goldsmith. For example, in the hallway, in the
refeteria?
33
Mr. Hidalgo. In the hallways or cafeteria. Never cer-
tainly at my desk.
Mr. Goldsmith. What is your best recollection as to the
number of times that you saw him?
Mr. Hidalgo. A couple of times, two or three.
Mr. Goldsmith. When you saw this individual and you knew
that he was Maurice Bishop, how did you know that the gentleman
that you had in mind was not that Maurice Bishop?
Mr. Hidalgo. Someone might have said, "That is Maurice
Bishop," and it was different from Dave Phillips or Hal Swenson,
guys that I know.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you know a man named Firgault?
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't think so.
MI. Goldsmith. At this time I would like to show you an
exhibit, I believe it is JFK Exhibit No. 104, and I would like
to ask you to examine that and to tell the committee whether you
recognize that individual.
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't believe so, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Thank you. You can put that aside now.
Did you know an individual named Antonio Veciana Blanc?
MI. Hidalgo.. Now this name sounds familiar to me in my
Cuban operation, I don't know where. It may have been with

tit brigade or he may have been an agent of an agent. I knew
literally hundreds - hundreds - of the Cubans.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did MI. Bishop have any involvement in the
affairs of the brigade? By brigade I am not referring to the
Bay of Pigs operation.
MI. Hidalgo. I don't know if he did. I was not aware of
everyone. He might very well have been involved in this thing.
MI. Goldsmith: Getting back to Mr. Bishop, when was the
first time you saw him to the best of your memory?
Mr. Hidalgo. I would think about the early Sixties.
Mr. Goldsmith. Were you ever formally introduced to him?
Mr. Hidalgo. No.
Mr. Goldsmith. And from the time that you first saw him
in the early Sixties until the last time that you saw him,
which I believe you said would have been about 1969 or 1970,
approximately how many times did you actually see this man?
Mr. Hidalgo. It would not have been that late because in
late 1964 or early 1965 I left the Cuban operations and went to
another country of interest, so in those times, say 1960 to
1964, it might have been two or three times.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is it fair to say in light of your last
comment that once you stopped working in Cuban operations, you
left that particular area, you no longer saw Mr. Bishop?
Mr. Hidalgo. If I did, it would be just in the hallway
anc I don't think so. I was now in another part of the agency

taking TDY trips for that part of the agency.
Mr. Goldsmith, So by that, in other words that would
irfer that Mr. Bishop worked in the area of Cuban operations?
Mr. Hidalgo. No, not necessarily. He might have worked
in -- you know, there are so many operations. He might have
been transferred to somewhere else, I don't know. You see,
where in the case of Hal Swenson and Dave Phillips I continued
to seek them out and say, "How are you, Dave? How are you
doing?" Go to lunch, play some poker. In the case of Bishop
this is not so.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you ever see Mr. Bishop at the JM
wave station?
MI. Hidalgo. No. In the JM wave station you have to
understand that I was assigned to the JM wave station but I
stayed away from the JM wave station. It sounds peculiar.
was assigned there and yet I was not there. I was assigned
there shortly after I went there and met my own cover and did
my own operations. So when I did go to the JM wave station,
it was just a matter of just quickly in and get it over with.
MI. Goldsmith. Did you ever see Mr. Bishop's picture in
the newspaper?
Mr. Hidalgo. I may have, I don't recall. There was a
time there after early 1964 where you could have asked me to
identify my children and I could not have done it. That is
when I had my second stroke and that was when I left JM wave.

I has evacuated actually out.
Mr. Goldsmith. But you are certain nevertheless that
during your stay at the agency on at least two or three occa-
sions you saw an individual whom you knew to be Maurice Bishop?
MI. Hidalgo. Whom someone told me, "That is Maurice
Bishop. "
Mr. Goldsmith. MI. Chairman, I have no further questions
at this time. I may have a few follow-up questions. If the
committee has questions, I will yield at this time.
Mr. Preyer. All right.
Mr. Fithian.
Mr. Fithian. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Do you get any feel for whether other people that you get
to see just casually at the CIA are --I don't know how to put
this -- higher of lower on the pecking order?
Mr. Hidalgo. Pardon?
Mr. Fithian. Do you have a feel for an individual that
you see casually over at the agency as to whether or not they
are higher up in the structure?
MI. Hidalgo. A feeling?
Mr. Fithian. Yes.
MI. Hidalgo.. You mean when I was working at the agency
if I saw someone --
Mr. Fithian. You didn't see them, you were not working
with them every day, you just see them from time to time, do

as to whether they are above you in rank or equal or whatever?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, I think I know what you are trying to
say. Essentially, yes, sir.
MI. Fithian. Do you have an impression that Biship was
higher?
?
Mr. Hidalgo. I would say he was a higher grade than I was.
MI. Fithian. Higher grade than you were?
Mr. Hidalgo. Of course I was not a very high grade.

MI. Preyer. And Dave Phillips' office was also there?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Preyer. And you would go out occasionally on missions
such as going down to Mexico?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
MI. Preyer. But you would be working for the CIA in
Washington and not for Win Scott, the chief of the Mexican
station?
Mr. Hidalgo. That is correct, sir. When I went to
someone's area on an operation, they would be advised that I

would be coming into the country. Meeting with them, no. If
I reed any contact, if I got into trouble and needed something,
I would always
be able to call and they would recognize the
name and they would assist me if they could.
Mr. Preyer. You say you knew Dave Phillips well but you
didn't have an operation relationship with him, you didn't work
with him on operations.
Mr. Hidalgo. That is correct, sir. It is just, you know,
two guys that met and happened to like each other.
MI. Preyer. Was his office near yours?
Mr. Hidalgo. It was on the same floor.

you?

and there were many people on the floor that had nothing to
do with what I had to do.
• Mi. Preyer. Did Bishop have some relationship in his
appearance and age to Phillips?
Mr. Hidalgo. Again I cannot recall Bishop's appearance
at all.
MI. Preyer. Do you recall more on the name when people
said, "That is Maurice Bishop"?

MI. Hidalgo. Maurice Bishop, right. . It might have been

Ms. Preyer. All right. Thank you.
Well, let me just ask one other question. Staff might
ariswer this. Who is AMMUG? Do we know him by any other name?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir. At one time I could give you his
name, etc. Right now I can only give you his first name.
His
first name I believe was Vladimer and the name I used confi-
dentially was Laddie.
Mr. Preyer. He was
a Cuban defector?
MI. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
MI. Preyer. Who was connected with Cuban intelligence?
Mr. Hidalgo. Yes, sir.
Mr. Goldsmith. Mr. Chairman, I state for the record the
committee does have this individual's true name but just for
sake of security we are not referring to it.
Mr. Preyer. All right.
MI. Hidalgo. I appreciate that.
MI. Goldsmith. Thank you.
MI. Preyer. Thank you. I have no further questions.
Mr. Goldsmith. Mr. Chairman, I have just a few more
questions if I may proceed. How much time do I have?
Mr. Preyer. Mr. Fithian andI will have to leave you in
a couple of minutes here. Will it take you more than a few
minutes or so? We have got to go and vote.

Mr. Goldsmith. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will try to
be brief.
I have a few more questions for you, Mr. Hidalgo.
Do you know whether David Phillips knew Maurice Bishop?
Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know that. He may have known him
but I don't know that.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is it possible that the name Maurice
Biship may have been an alias?
Mr. Hidalgo. Very possible.
MI. Goldsmith. Why do you say that?
Mr. Hidalgo. Because others in the agency thought that
they knew me by X name and they called me by that name when in
fact it was not.
MI. Goldsmith. So the use of aliases even at agency
headquarters was not at all uncommon, is that true, to your
knowledge?
MI. Hidalgo. That is true.
Mr. Goldsmith. Do you know whether Maurice Bishop was

Mr. Hidalgo. I don't know. See, my part of the Bay of
Pigs operation was a specific area and even my immediate
superior during the Bay of Pigs did not tell me everything
about it and I didn't tell him everything that I was doing.
Mr. Goldsmith. Did you know William Harvey?
Mr. Hidalgo. That name I definitely know from hearing
it. Let's see. Again I could not give you a physical
description of the man but I don't think that is Maurice.
That is a true name. I do remember that, yes. Harvey was
mixed up in the Cuban operation definitely.
MI. Goldsmith. Do you recall ever working for him?
MI. Hidalgo. Not directly. Not directly.

penetration agents in the Cuban embassy in Mexico City in

Mr. Goldsmith. Do you have any knowledge of any political
assassination plots on the part of the CIA during the period
1960 through 1964?
Mr. Hidalgo. Let me answer this way. I have no -- as my
attornry knows, I wanted to make a statement to this effect at
the start, if I may make it now. I now nor never knew of any
assassination plot by anyone in the United States Government,
in any agency of the United States Government, any knowledge of!
any assassination plot.
Mr. Goldsmith. MI. Hidalgo, I asked you earlier whether
you knew what the term Domestic Exploitation Section referred
to and I believe your testimony was that you did not.
Mr. Hidalgo. That is right. It didn't make sense to me.
Mr. Goldsmith. Is it possible that the Domestic Exploi-
tation Section is a section that would have contacted persons
is the United States -- for example, relatives of people who
lived overseas -- in order to recruit those persons or to have
those persons assist the agency to recruit persons living
overseas to assist the agency?
Mr. Hidalgo. That might have been the domestic operations
but exploitation just does not make sense. You are right, it
certainly could be something like that.
Mr. Goldsmith. I have no further questions at this time.
Thank you, Mr. Hidalgo.

Mr. Hidalgo. I would imagine they are. It is a form of
intelligence. Why not?
that is or is not done?
MI. Fithian. But do you of your personal knowledge know
Mr. Hidalgo. I have done it myself, yes, sir.
Mr. Fithian. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
MI. Preyer. Thank you, Mr. Hidalgo. We appreciate your
being here today.
Under our rules when a witness completes his testimony if
he or his counsel would care to make a statement for five
minutes or less he is entitled to do so. If there is anything
further you would like to say at this time of add by way of
explanation of any questions you may have answered, the
committee will be glad
to hear from you.
MI. Hidalgo. I can only say, sir, that I came here a
little afraid that I would have to name people whose lives
would have been in jeopardy if that name became known and to
talk about things that would have placed me under possible

have not come up. I thank you very much for the way you have
conducted it.

cooperation with the committee.

The purpose of this memorandum is to summarize investigativ
efforts to authenticate Hoover memoranda dated 8/24-25/36.
Document Section, FBI Laboratory, determined the type appearing
on Hoover memorandum dated 8/25/36 was prepared on a Remington typewriter
with àn elite type used since October, 1935. Hoover memorandum to Tamm dated
9/10/36, was prepared on an IBM typewriter with pica-style type used since 1930:
The letterhead used on both Hoover memoranda of 8/24-25/36 was
authorized FBI stationery effective August 14, 1936.
On 3/10/75, Mr. Donald B. Schewe, Assistant Likrarian, Reference
Archives, Franklin D. Roosevelt Library, Hyde Park, New York, advised that
The White House Ushers Appointment Book contained entries showing that
on Thursday, August 24, 1936, from 9:20 a.m. to 10:12 a.m., President
Roosevelt met with Mr. Hoover in his residence at The White House prior to
leaving for his office. Schewe pointed out that this meeting was significant
since President Roosevelt met Mr. Hoover immediately after returning from
an extended trip, a departure from his usual practice. There was no entry
on 8/25/36, other than the President's departure for the Dakotas at 10:40 p.m.
On 4/2/75, review of Cordell Hull Papers, Library of Congress,
reflected that a Desk Diary (container #68, folder #295, microfilm #38) of
Secretary'Hull contained an entry on 8/25/36 that the Secretary had luncheon
with the President between 1: 00 p.m. to g"t Mine

RESEARCH CONDUCTED AT FRANKLIN D.
ROOSEVELT LIBRARY, HYDE PARK, NY
ON 3/10-12/75
On 3/10/74, Mr: DONALD B. SCHEVE, Assistant
Librarian in the Reference Archives, Franklin D. Roosevelt
Library, Hyde Park, NY, was advised
of our interest in
locating any communications bearing upon a conversation
between former President FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT and former
Secretary of State CORDELL HULL in the latter part of
August, 1936.
Mr. SCHEWE was advised that this conversation
was concerned with the security of the US and that Mr. J.
conversation.
allegedly reduced the subject matter of above conversation
to a memorandum and that we were interested in locating
this memorandum or some information bearing upon above
conversation.
Arrangements were made to meet with Mr. SCHEWE
at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library in Hyde Park, NY,
on 3/12/75. Mr. SCHEWE indicated that in the meantime
se would conduct some research in this matter.
on 3/12/75, Mr. SCHEWE advised that he had
conducted some research relative to our telephone call
on 3/10/75, and inquired 1f we could be more specific
with regard to the dates of the information desired.
"SCHEWE
was advised that to the best of our knowledge the
conversation we were interested in involving FRANKLIN D.
ROOSEVELT (FDR), HULL and Mr. HOOVER, occurred on
approximately 0/24-26/36 and that the conversation concerned
the internal security of the US.

dated 8/24/36, (copy of which is
attached) on White House stationery, classified "Confidential

Mr. SCHEWE stated that "buck slips" are nothing more
than a cover memorandum utilized to transmit communications
which are
It is to be noted that this
"buck slip" indicates that attached to it was a memorandum
for the secretary of State, unsigned, undated and
recommending coordination of activities of all agents
of the Government in foreign countries.

that the synopsis of this memorandum which appears on.
the "buck slip" was the usual practice at that time to
Identify the documents attached to it. SCHEWE added.
that this was the only document he was able to locate
which may have some bearing on the desired information.
SCHEWE stated that the possibility exists that the
referred to memorandum may be located
among the collection
of papers of CORDELL HULI which are now stored at the
Isbrary of Congress,
washington, D.C.
Mr. SCHEWE then exhibited to interviewing personnel
the White House Ushers Appointment Book which was
hand-written and kept on a daily basis. This appointment
book contained the following pertinent information:
Thursday, August 13, 1936, at 9:50 AM
FDR departed the white House for a visit
to the flood areas in NY, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania.
Thursday, August 24, 1936, FDR returned
to white
House at 8:45 AM.
9:20 AM FDR met with Mr. HOOVER from
9:20 AM to 10:12 AM.
(Note * - There is no entry in this book
for Aug. 24, 1936, indicating that Mr.
HULL was there.
Mr. SCHEWE advised that
It is interesting to note that. FDR met
Mr. HOOVER in his residence in the White
House on 8/24/36, prior to leaving for
his office in the White House:
SCHEWE
also pointed out that this meeting was
significant since FDR met with Mr. HOOVER
on 8/24/36, immediately after returning
from an extended trip.
This, according
to SCHEWE was a departure from FDR's
usual practice.
There was no record in the White House
Usher's Appointment Book for 8/25/36, which would indicate
that FDR met with either Mr. HULL Or Mr. HOOVER on that
date.
This book indicates that FDR departed the White
House on Tuesday, 8/25/75, at 12:40 PM for a trip to the
draught areas, in upper Maine, South Dakota and North
- ?

Dakota, as well as a visit to Mt. Rushmore.
FDR did not
return to the White House until Sunday, Sept. 6, 1936,
at 10:02 AM.
The White House Usher's Appointment Book
further reflects that FDR, during the period July 10,
1936,
to Aug, 10, 1936, was away from the white House
campaigning.
FDR returned to the White House on
8/10/30, and remained there until 8/13/36, when he
igain departed on a trip and returned on 8/24/36
FDR also departed from the White House on 8/25/36,
and returned on 9/6/36.
Mr. SCHEWE also produced to interviewing
personnel the appointment book of FDR's private secretary,
GRACE TULLY for the pertinent period. This appointment book
reflects all of FDR's office appointments.
A review
of this appointment book fails to reflect that FDR met
or had an appointment with Mr. HOOVER in his office
during the period 8/13/36 to 9/6/36.
However, this
• appointment book does reflect that during this period
FDR did have a meeting with CORDELI HULL On 8/25/36,
at 1:00 PM.
MC. SCHEWE further advised that he personally
reviewed
the following and was unable to locate any
documents or references which could possibly shed some
-light on the matter of interest to us:
1.) Papers kept in FDR's safe.
2.) Papers kept by his secretary in a separate
White House safe.
3.) Papers kept in FDR's official presidential
file.
4.)
Papers kept in FDR's alphabetical file
maintained by his secretary.
5.) Individual agencies files.
6.) J. EDGAR HOOVER's file.

In conclusion; Mr. SCHEWE stated that after
reviewing all of the are data, he concluded that the
pertinent document of interest
to us is not at the FDR
Library at Hyde Park, N1•
SCHEWE added that if any
such document is at the Library,
it is misfiled and
as there are approximately 21 million pages of manuscripts
and documents at the Library, it would be impossible
to locate same.
It is to be noted that on the enclosed
"buck slip" there are four penciled notations, 1.e.
285-C, X20, X285 and X67.
SCHEWE stated that
these
nottions are part of the FDR Library cross-reference
system.
SCHEWE added that he checked these refereness
and could locate nothing further regarding the matter
of interest to us.
SCHEWE stated that these references
pertained to the enclosed "buck slip"

On 2/6/75 Mr. Kelley and I met with Senator Church
and Bill Miller, Staff Director of the Senate Select Committee.
Senator Church pointed out that he intended to run the Committee in
a very responsible manner, had no intention of destroying or impairing
the effectiveness of the intelligence community and, in fact, hoped that
the efforts of the Committee would help to reestablish public confidence
in the intelligence agencies.
Parameters have not been drawn but Senator Church feels that
the Committee will confine its activities largely to inquiries into domestic
activities. The inquiries will be designed to determine whether agencies
have acted outside the law and the type of remedial legislation necessary
to prevent such abuses in the future.
Study will be largely concerned with the activities of the Central
Intelligence Agency but will, of course, involve the FBI and other agencies
involved in domestic 'intelligence.
& MAY 7
55118
The Committee hopes to have a nonpartisan staff of approximately
40 employees headed up by Mr. Miller and would appreciate having necessary
background investigations expedited to permit an early clearance. Miller
indicated he has already been in touch with Mr. Hotis and Mr. Bowers in
this regard. It was explained that the contemplated procedure involved the
FBI conducting the full-field investigation necessary with the results being
furnished to the Chairman, after which he would, upon being personally
satisfied as to their loyalty, furnish the results to CIA for final clearance.
Senator Church appeared satisfied with this arrangement. He stated that
he wanted to prevent leaks and be hopefully as successful as the Judiciary
Committee was on the impeachment inquiry. Our experience in this regard
was pointed out whergin the Judiciary Committee in connection with the 17
wiretaps had written us alter indicating that if we made lastiet

Re: SENSTUDY 1975
information available they would afford it appropriate security restricted
to members only, excluding staff, and would not make the information
public. Subsequent to the hearings, the Committee published its report
which contained our classified documents right along with the Top Secret
classifications. Senator Church was not aware of this, appeared surprised
by it, and stated surely the information must have been declassified. I
advised him that not by us and it was our information.
Senator Church was asked whether in his opinion the formation
of the Select Committee would have any effect on the proliferation of
committees seeking to obtain testimony from the FBI and it was his opinion
that this would have a favorable effect. He said he had been in touch with
other members of the Senate who felt that it was a waste of time to have
repetitious testimony on the same subject matter before a variety of
committees and he had the feeling that the other committees would hold off
until after the Senate Select Committee completed its hearings. He indicated
that he could not vouch for what would happen in the House, however, he
intended to speak to the House leadership in order to try to effect some
coordinated approach there also, because he was well aware of the large
number of committees seeking to provide oversight or obtain information
from the intelligence agencies.
A question arose as to the extent of cooperation with the Committee
and Senator Church was assured that the FBI would be completely responsive
subject to certain limitations which would have to be delineated by the
President in order to protect sensitive sources and information. Senator
Church indicated that he was going to talk to the President in this regard in
order to secure his complete cooperation, and it was Senator Church's feeling
that the Committee should be entitled to answers to any questions they might
ask without restriction other than, of course, the identities of informants.
He felt the progress of the Committee would be severely impaired if it were
necessary to go to Court over such questions to obtain enforcement of their
right to have access to whatever information they need.

MEMORANDUM FOR: USIB Principals
SUBJECT:
Community Aspects of Inputs to Congressional
Committees Investigating Intelligence
1. The Intelligence Community Staff, with John M. Clarke,
Associate Deputy/IC, as my representative in these matters, will
Keep the Board and other appropriate officials advised as to
progress of the investigations conducted by the Senate and House
• Seleci Committees investigating intelligence activities. In particular,
it will ensure that we are kept informed as to materials which are
formally being provided to the Select Committees by all elements
of the Community. The USIB Ad Hoc Group will assist on this
, matter and provide the mechanism for regular and constant communi-
cations.
2. In response to this assignment, the Intelligence Community
Staff is establishing a registry for documentation relating to the
investigations. This registry will be a source of reference of all
responses, testimony, et cetera, provided by USIB agencies and
available to your designated representatives.
3. In order to make the registry useful to the Board, it is
essential that it include:
a. File copies of documents or other materials which
each Intelligence Community elément provides to one of the
Select Committees where the originating agency considers
the materials to involve aspects of Community activities,
and/or which may result in follow-on queries concorning
the functioning of the Community. The availability of this
documentation will be of particular importance if it is
expected there will be subscquent inquirics relating to the
materials provided and involving elements of the Commanity
other
than the originating clement.

Washington, D. C.
Dear Frank:
Reference is your request for comments on the sample
abstracts prepared in the FBI as a report on materials being
provided to the Senate Select Committee.
As you know, we want to make the Community Registry as
complete a record as possible of what is provided to the
Committee, and for this reason hope that the actual copy of
special reports and particularly mportant documents witt be
provided to the Registry.
Where this is not done, an abstract
or summary of each document or homogenous set of documents.
We have amended the abstract format slightly to include
an entry for "Document Classification."
A copy of the
amended format is enclosed.
Your sample abstracts require a few alterations to make
them more "indexable."
a.
Item 1, "TITLE/SUBJECT" refers to the subject
matter of the material which is being provided.
The
abstract on the FBI Manual of
Instructions should have
an entry here something like "Instructions covering FBI
Investigations in the Security Field," rather than the
title of the Senate Committee.
b. The date at the head of the page should be
the date of preparation of the abstract. The date of
submission to the committee is listed at Item 9.
c.
The entry
"ORIGINATING ORGANIZATION" identified
the organization with authority to release the document.

## Page 31
d.
The "SUMMARY OF CONTENTS" section should
be brief, but also should clearly indicate what is
being provided to the Committee. I wonder, for
instance, whether your sample on the letterhead
memoranda was issued in widely separated time periods:
The summary as written gives no indication as to
the particular subject of any of the memoranda and the
single sentence now used to describe all of them covers
the waterfront.
If the request for information comes officially
from the committee, the Committee title should be entered
under "REQUESTOR,
but if the requestor is an individual
member of the Staff, his name should be indicated.
f.
The last entry in the format, "PROBLEM AREAS, "
has particular significance since it is important to
Know lI there are third Agency, or sources ana methoas,
or other sensitivity problems involved,
and this is
the place to identify them.
We are beginning to use
the abstracts prepared in our office as an aid to
obtaining release clearance when we are dealing with
the document for which another agency must concur in
the release. The "PROBLEM AREAS" section gives such
other agency an idea as to whether we see any important
reason why they should be concerned about release of
the document.
The entry in this final section of the
format is expected to prove useful for this purpose.
5.
that
One copy of the document or its abstract is all
is needed by the registry.
6. The mailing address of the registry is:

DATB:
FROM The Attorney General
SUBJECTNICROPHONE SURVEILIANCE
say 24,195.
155-20
the recent decision of the Supreme Court entitled Irvine v.
Califoreia, 347 U.S. 128, denouncing the use of microphone surveillances
by city police in a gambling caso makes appropriate a reappraisal of
the use which may be made in the future by the Federal Bureau oi
Investigation of microphone surveillance in connection with matters
relaiing to the internal security of the country.
It is clear that in some instances the use of microphone
cuirclianão ds the only possible may nê uncoverine the activities
an espionage agents, messinle sahnteurs, and subversive persons. In
such instances I am of the opinion that the national interest requires
that nicrophone curreillance be utilized by the federal Bureau of
Investágation.
This use need not be limited to the developnent oi
evidence for prosecution. The FBI has an intelligence function in
connection with intomal security matters equally as important as
the duty of developing evidence for presentation to the courts and
the national security requires that the FBI be able to use microphone
surveillance for the proper discharge of both of such functions.
The Department of Justice approves the use of microphone surveillance
by the fBI under these circumstances and for these purposes.
I do not consider thät the decision of the Supreme Court
in Irvine v. Califomia, supra, requires a different course. That
case is readily distinguishable on its facts. The language of the
Court, however, indicates cortain uses of microphones which it would
be well to avoid, if possible, even in internal security investiga
tions.
It is quite clear that in the Irvine case the justices of the
Supreme Court were outraged by what they regarded as the indecency of
installing a microphone in a bedroom. They denounced the utilization
of such methods of investigation in a gambling case as shocking. The
Court's action is a clear incication of the need for discretion and
intelligent restraint in the use of microphones by the FBI in all
cases, including internal security matters. Obviously, the insialla-.
tion of a microphone in a bedroom or ir sone comparably intimate
Location should be avoided wherever possible. It may appear, however,
that important intelligence or evidence relating to motheri connected
with the national security can only be obtained by the installation oi
a micropione in such a location.
It is my opinion, that under such
circustances the installation is proper and is not prohibited by the
•Suprere Court's decision in the Irvine case:
-MW-55118_DocId:32989628
Page 43

## Page 44
-2=
Previous interpretations which have been fumished to you
as to what may constitute trespass in the installation of microphones,
suggest that the views expressed have been tontative in nature and
have attempted to precict the course which courts would lollow
rather than refleci the present state of the law. It is realized
that not infrequently the question oi trespass arises in connection
with the installation of a microphone. The question of whether a
trespass is actually involved and the second question of the effect
of such a trespass upon the acmissibility in court of the evidence thus
obtained, must necessarily be resolved according to the circumstances
of each case.
The Department in resolving the problens which may arise
in connection with the use of microphone suveillance will review the
circunstances in each case in the light of the practical necessities
of investigation and of the national interest which must be protected.
It is my opinion that the lepartnent should adopt that interpretation
which will permit microphone covarage by the FBI in a manner most
conducive to our national interest
I recognize that for the FBI.
to fulêill its important intelligence function, considerations of
internal security and the national saiety are paramount and, there-

The Intelligence Division has reviewed the attached figures
prepared by the Administrative Division. Under the criteria of the current
Classification Act it would be impossible to justify classification of these
figures; however, should they be made public or fall into the hands of a
hostile foreign intelligence service, it would reveal the current capability
the FBI employs in the field of counterintelligence against the total foreigr
threat. In view of the above, the Intelligence Division strongly recommends
that the Legal Counsel Division discuss this with the staff of the Senate
Select Committee pointing out the vulnerability implicit in this attachment
in an effort to have the Committee withdraw its request identified as Ill C.

Regarding the observations of the Intelligence Division
concerning the making available the amount of manpower dedicated to
counterintelligence and domestic intelligence work in the FBI, the
Legal Counsel Division has the following observations:
of
classist
(1) Based on our analysis and conversations this
Division has had with Fred B. Griffith of the Inspection Division, it
In earn appears that the information contained in this memorandum may be
classified confidential under Executive order 11652.
(2) Before making any determination as to whether we
make such information available to the Senate Select Committee, it
would appear we should determine from CIA what their response to
such a request will be so that our position and that of CIA will be
consistent in this area. In this regard SA Paul V. Daly has contacted
Leon F. Schwartz, Liaison Section of Intelligence Division, and requested
he determine from CIA what their position in this regard is.
(3) It is not believed that we should take a hard and fast
position that this information not be made available to the Committee or
that we make an effort to have the Committee withdraw their request for
this information. We should rather develop some fallback position such
as that this information will be made available to the Chairman of the
Committee or will be made available during an oral briefing, etc.

the titles and numbers of FBI field office Agents assigned to
internal security, intelligence collection, and/or counter-

to requirement IIIC of Senator Church's' letter dated 3/19/75.
By addendum dated 4/4/75 the Intelligence Division
recommended that the Legal Counsel Division discuss with the
staff of the Senate Select Committee (SSC) our reluctance to
provide these type figures to the SSC.
On 4/11/75 I discussed with Mr. John Clark, Associate
Deputy to the Director of Central Intelligence for the intelligence
community, the request of Senator Church.
Specifically, Mr. Clark
was asked
i Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had received such a
request and how they responded. Mr. Clark advised that CIA had
not received a specific request for the titles and numbers of
CIA officers assigned to intelligence collection or counter-
intelligence matters. However, CIA had received a request to
identify the names and numbers of CIA covert officers assigned
overseas.

Mr. Clark advised that CIA-intended to advise the Staff

on 4/11/75, from 10:00 am until 12:20 pm, staff
members of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence
Activities were briefed by Assistant Director Wannall and
members of his staff in the Conference Room at INTD.
Briefed
from the Committee were Mr. William Miller, Staff Director;
Mr. Frederick A. O. Schwarz III, Chief Counsel; and
Messrs. Mark Gitenstein, Marvin Epstein, Patrick Shea, Britt
Snider
and Loch Johnson, all staff members.
The first hour of the briefing was occupied with
the showing of the INTD slide presentation and
commentary
which provided highlights of the work of the INTD,
both in
the counterintelligence and internal security field. Following
this presentation a question and answer period ensued for the
rest of the briefing. Mr. Miller and Mr. Schwarz posed most
of the questions.
In the counterintelligence field the thrust of the
questioning was directed toward the continuing growth of the
hostile intelligence presence in the United States and its
(short term and long term offeet on the fBI's operations.
Mr. Wannall pointed out that the Director on previous occasions
had indicated his intention to "beef up" the counterintelligence
effort of the FBI by the addition of some 250 Special Agents,
and that INTD had also effected certain programs designed to
assign certain counterintelligence functions to non-Agent
personnel, thereby freeing additional special Agents to function
as case officers.
In response to a question' as to whether the
additional investigative effort necessary to counter the
mounting hostile intelligence threat might not involve investi
gation of more and more American citizens, ir, Wannall conceded

Again,
Mr. Wannall stressed the precautions inherent in FBI policy
and instructions to the field in these matters, pointing out,
in effect, that these investigations are founded on statutory
authority
and are closely supervised by experienced personnel
at Headquarters level®
The Committee staff appeared to accept
these answers and no critical or hostile attitudes on their
Ipart were evident.
The briefing
was terminated at 12:20 pm, due to
commitments on the part of the staff. Mr. Miller and
Schwarz both expressed their appreciation for the briefing
and indicated it had been most instructive. They indicated
a desire to continue these discussions at some later date and
Mr. Wannall assured them that he would be happy to continue
the briefing at any future mutually agreeable time.
Perhaps most significant of all questions posed was
the final question by Mr. Schwarz in which he inquired as to
what advantages and disadvantages to the FBI could be anticipated
as a result of the Committee fulfilling its mandate,
Mr. Wannall
replied that any statutory authority defining and affirming the
FBI's role in the intelligence collection field would certainly
be a positive achievement, He also stated that any result of
the Committee's investigation which would tend to limit the
investigative resources or the investigative effectiveness of
the FBI would surely be an unfortunate negative factor.

telephoned me
to advise that he had received a request to appear
for an interview by Michael Epstein, staff member of the Senate
Select Committee. The interview was scheduled for 4/23/75.
In response to a question by Mr. Whitson, he was advised
that to the writer's knowledge this was the first former Bureau
employee who had been requested to appear for an interview by any
member of the staff of the Select Committee.
Whitson stated that
he was proceeding on the basis that he would respond to questions
propounded to him but he had some reservation in his mind concerning
answering questions which would involve material which he knew to be
classified at the time he retired. He commented he had noted in the
news media that staff members of the Committee were reportedly to be
granted clearances through TOP SECRET - Q (Atomic Energy Matters) •
Whitson was advised by the writer that while it was true
staff members were being granted clearances, the Bureau was endeavoring
to establish procedures through the Attorney General whereby highly
sensitive and classified material could be revealed on a restricted
basis in response to Committee inquiries; for example, in some

You requested analysis of the legal authority for FBI
criminal intelligence collection and its relationship to our statutory

"The gathering of criminal intelligence information"

general objective is woll understood by those engaged in law entorcement.
There exist individuals and groups whose daily occupations are directed

detected and to some degree measured by the collection of data concerning
their personalife-styles, property holdings, associates, influence, and
access to capital. Such information has been characterized as "criminal
intelligence."
For years, the FBI has been aware of the need to identify
these resources of the criminal element. Congress responded to this
need through the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970. The Congressional
findings were that organized crime in the United States is a highly
sophisticated, diversified, and widespread activity that annually drains
billions of dollars from America's economy by unlawful conduct and by
the illegal use of force, fraud and corruption. Legitimaic business and
labor unions are infiltrated and corrupted and our democratic processes
are subverted. The problem ias declared to be of of national concern
both as to our economy and the domestic security.

Memorandum J. A. Mintz to Mr. Dalbey
RE: FBI JURISDICTION: CRIMINAL
INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION
The Act attempted to attack organized crime by making
criminal the management of syndicated gambling and by prohibiting
rackctecring activity charactcristic of organized crime including the
use of illegal proceeds for investment in legitimate business enterprises.
The long-established suspicions of law enforcement officers
were confirmed by the Congressional findings but statutory enactments
did not eliminate the conduct described as evil therein. There remains
the task of establishing the identities of those constituting the national
menace and developing prosecutable evidence of their guilt. "Criminal
intelligence" collection is one moans by which this responsibility may
be fulfilled. It may be the only practical means in view of the scarcity
of witnesses willing to testify and of the high mortality potential of those
who do appear. A classic example of such intimidation is reported in
United States v. Addonizio, 451 F2d 49 (3rd Ur. 1972) where a prusueuire
¿trose in a conception case found an arcaymous ants on the cost nf hic
car which read "This could have been a bomb. Keep your mouth shut."
Accepting the need for intelligence gathering as a practical
necessity, the issue remains as to its propriety in the face of Constitutional
protections. If the Supreme Court announces that individuals have a
Constitutionally protected right of privacy that may be overcome only
through established arrest, search, and subpoena procedures, the issue
will be settled. But, thus far, the Court has only drawn upon the concept
of Constitutional privacy to resolve cases involving special circumstances
such as marital affairs (Griswold v. Connecticut, 381 U.S. 179 (1965) ) and
interception of communications (Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 347 (1967) ;
More specific Constitutional limitations on the criminal
intelligence function may be found in the First Amenciment protections of
speech and assembly; the Fourth Amendment prohibitions of unreasonabie
searches and seizures; and the Fifth Amendment priviloge against
compulsory self incrimination.
The theme consistently found in decisions having a bearing on thi
relationship between these rights and the collection of criminal intelliga ce
is that, when in direct conflict, the collection efforts must yield. Such is

not to label criminal intelligence as necessarily the product of malpractice.
but to recognize the paramount nature of the Constitutional interests being
safeguarded. Other incidents of government regulatory authority have
been required to yield as well when confronted with legitimate claims of
Constitutional protection, e. s. the administrative search cases, Camara v.
Municipal Court, 387 U.S. 523 (1967).
Overt and obtrusive conduct susceptible of being characterized
as harassment may well be enjoined as, for example, was the case of an
obvious 24-hour-2-day physical surveillance of an individual, his home,
relatives, friends, and associates (Giancana v. Johnson, 335 F2d 366
(7th Cir. 1964) cert. den. 379 U.S. 1001. Similar results might be
expected where an identitied officer loiters in the subject's place of
business (Bee see Books. Inc. V. Leary, 291 F. Supp. 622 (SD 1. 7. 1950)
or openly attends organizational meetings where ms presence ininviis
ammaninitina and the francontino of the hucinode of the accamily (Tappi
309, United Furniture Workc's v. Gates. 75 E. Supp. 620 (ND Ind. I9?0)).
However, open photographic surveillance oi public gatherings (Donahoe v.
Duling, 330 F. Supp. 308 (ED Va. 1971)) and secret monitoring of
criminal activities through the use of undercover agents (Lewis v. United
States,
385 U.S. 206(1966) ) and informants (Hoffa v. United Staïcs, 395
U.S. 295 (1966) ) have met with judicial approval.
Obviously, criminal intelligence information gained by un-
reasonable search and seizure or through compelled self-incrimination is
tainted and subject to judicial condemnation upon complaint of one having
the requisite standing.
Perhaps, the decision coming nearest to discussing the.
legality of criminal intelligence collection was Anderson v. Sills. 106 N. J.
Super. 545, 256 A2d 298 (1989), (reversed on the ground more complic
record was necded to support the decision) 56 N.J. 210, 265 A2d 678 (1970).
New Jersey had responded to the threat of continuing civil disorders by
collecting intolligence intormation on persons and events alleged to have
some rolationship to such activities.
The trial court hold the collection
effort to be unconstitutional because, it conflicted with the First Amendment.

RE: FBI JURISDICTION: CRIMINAL

However, the court order to destroy the intelligence files excepted instances
"where such information will be used to charge persons with specifically
defined criminal conduct." 256 A2d at 305. Thus, the decision may be
interpreted as drawing a distinction between collection of intelligence
information where political or social factors are involved and First
Amendment freedoms therefore may be directly inhibited and collection
of criminal intelligence information where the objective is the establishment
of criminal conduct and the identities of the offenders. While the Fourth
and Fifth Amendment may be enjoyed by the guilty and innocent alike, it
is improbable that the First Amendment would be stretched so far as to
protect freedom of speech and assembly when such speech and assembly
constitute elements of a criminal offense. On appeal, the Supreme Court
of New Jersey returned the case for further development of the record
and observed".. the executive branch may gather whatever information
it reasonably believes to be necessary to enabic it to perform the police
roles, detectional and preventive.
A court should not interfere in the
A tentative conclusion may be stated, subject to further develop-
ment of the case law.
The gathering of criminal intelligence information
for the purpose of developing evidence of specific offenses characteristic
of organized crime is legally justified as well as practically necessary.
Where there is diversion from the proper objective and such collection
efforts are manipulated to cause harassment or where such activity conflicts
with Constitutional rights, to that extent the criminal intelligence program
must be reformed.

ATE INFORNATION CONTAINI
FBI AUTHORITY IN DOMESTIC
INTELLIGENCE MATTERS
You requested an analysis of the Bureau's authority to conduct
domestic intelligence investigations. The question of the jurisdictional
basis for these investigations is being examined at length by the Domestic
Intelligence Division and will not be discussed here.
It is fair to say that the domestic intelligence program is one
of the more controversial areas of the Bureau's activities.
For one thing,
an intelligence investigation casts a broader net than inquiries that are
discoted toward the proof of a specific offense. A large amount of raw data
is collected, much of which has no immediate bearing on potential offenses
or offenders.
But seemingly trivial information may later become important
in the detection and prevention of violence or civil disorder. There are
also fears that these investigations may eventually touch upon one's
political beliefs, habits or associations; or that information collected for
proper purposes may eventually be misused at the hands of Government.
Each is a legitimate concern.
The notion of Government prying into the
personal lives of its citizens is repellent to all of us. And yet there is a
strong sense that the Government must acquire necessary intelligence
information if it is to meet its responsibilities in connection with the
national security.
One of the major concerns about our domestic intelligence
activities is that they are not supervised or monitored by any outside
agency. The claim is mace that the Executive Branch has been left wide
diserction to define its own authority, and to choose the directions, mothosis,
• and focus of its investigations. For one thing, the law has never made
clear what facts and circumstances must be present to authorize an
intclligence investigation, nor how far such an investigation may lawiully
proced without being directed toward proof of a spocific offense.

• RE: FBI AUTHORITY IN DOMESTIC
INTELLIGENCE MATTERS
And unlike the practice in criminal cases, our clectronic surveillances in
security matters are not submitted for prior court approval. For another,
the exclusionary rule which provides the usual method of judicial control
over investigative procedures, is not often available in secuity cases.
Since the goal is largely preventive, these cases seldom come before the
courts. As a result, the public, the courts, and the Congress have very
little information about how we operate in domestic intelligence matters.
and what we do with the information acquired.
In response to this situation, some members of the Congress have
pressured for tighter controls over the Bureau, perhaps in the form of a
the choos subson to even const do at ust has expressed par culins
concern about the right of privacy and the authority of the Government to
gather information. In an exchange of correspondence with the Department
of Justice, the Senator has requested specific documentation of the
Department's guidelines for the gathering and retention of domestic
intelligence information. He has also suggested that legisiation migni ve
enacted, requiring a showing of probable cause before an investigation can
be initiated by the Government. It is doubtful that any such measure would
pass the Congress, but the proposal does show the mood of the times.
A parallel trend may be developing in the courts. In several
recent cases, plaintiffs have made the claim that Government information
gathering, which goes beyond the effort to apprehend criminal suspects,
may have a "chilling cifect" on the exercise of First Amendment rights.
These challenges thus far have not been successful. Anderson v. Sills.

to First Amendment rights. Thus, in Davis v. Ichord, 442 F2d 1207 (D.C.
Cir. 1970) although appellants allegedly felt chilled by a Congressional
Committce's investigation of them, the Court of Appeals found there was
insufficient justiciability in their claims to create a viable case or
controversy. This was because appellants had "failed to bring the fear of
investigation by the present Committee home to themselves,' their fears
were wholly speculative; there were no criminal proceedings contronting
chem; nor was any action pending. Moreover, the Court in Davis 10u1c
that the power of a Congressional Committee began and ended with the
investigation; whenever a Committee of the Congress seeks punitive action,
the Judiciary must become involved, and thus every investigation has a
judicial check which operates to guarantee the protection of constitutional
rights.
This latter aspect of the Davis decision was giveu peispecure bj
the Court of Appeals in Tatum. In contrasting the potential impact on First
Amendment rights occasioned by investigations conducted by the military
with investigations conducica by a civilian investigative agency, such as the
Federal Burcau of Investigation, the Court observed:
The compilation of data by a civilian investigative
agency is thus not the threat to civil liberties or the
deterrent on the exercise of the constitutional right
of free speech that such action by the military is, because
a civil investigative agency has no inherent power always
being subject to the well-defined restrictions of law and
the approval of the courts. ***
There, the Court pantedly examined the "source of the chill" as it had in
Davis, and in applying the "chilling effect doctrine", singled out the FBI
as a source which does not gencrate a reasonable basis for inhibitions or
apprchensions. In this connection the Court stated,

## Page 67
Mcmorandum J. B. Hotis to Mr. Dalbey
RE: FBI AUTIORITY IN DOMESTIC
INTELLIGENCE MATTERS
Referring to our holding in Davis that the
"source of the chill" is important in determining whether
there is any inhibiting effect on the exercise of First
Amendinent rights, we think that there is a significant
difference between investigative actions taken by a
military agency in reference to civilians and similar
investigative actions taken by a regular investigative
agency of a civilian branch of the Government.
One of the functions of a civilian investigative
agency, such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation, is
to compile information on law violators, agitators of
violence, and possible subversives. It has always been
recognized that this is a delicate function, and it is
exercised under the direction of the Attorney General.
Investigation is performed by men a majority de whom it
under the direction of lawyers in the Justice Department,
and the information compiled is only usable and effective
through court action. The FBIis powerless to imprison
or to affect his liberty in any way except through the
action of the courts.
As to the surveillance of public meetings through the use of
informants, it has been held that such surveillance is not per se actionable.
See Donahoc v. Duling, 330 F. Supp. 308 (E. D. Va. 1971) (police
surveillance of streei demonstrations held not to offend First Amendment
rights).
The Supreme Court in Hoffa v. U.S., 385 U.S. 293 (19G0), held
that the use of secret informants is "not per se unconstitutional"
, and does
not violate the Fifth Amchdment privilege against sclf-incrimination, nor
the Fourth Amendment prohibition against unicasonable searches and
seizures. The Court upheld, as rcasonable under the Fourth Amendment,
admission at trial of evidence obnined by an undercover informant to whom
a defondant spolic without knowlcdge that he was in the employ of the police.
385 U.S. at 300-303. Sce also Lewis v. U.S., 385 U.S. 206 (19G6) and
Lopcz v. U.S., 373 U.S. 127 (1963). .

RE: FBI AUTIIORITY IN DOMESTIC

Moreover, the Supreme Court in U.S. v. White, 401 U.S. 745
(1971), recently held that the use of secret informants does not violate
any constitutionally justifiable expectation of privacy under the Fourth
Amendment, even when an informant uses electronic equipment to transmit
his conversations with defendants to other agents.
If the use of undercover government informants without a
warrant does not violate the Fourth Amendment and invade a defendant's
constitutionally justifiable expectations of privacy, Hoffa v. U.S., supra.
and such informants may write down their conversations with deiendants
and testify concerning them, or simultaneously record and transmit such
conversations to other's,
who may testify against them, On Lce v. U.S.,
343 U.S. 747 (1952); U.S. V. White, supra, then clearly mere visuai
"surveillance" of plainstis in plain vior by informants at public meetings
would not violate their constitutional rights.
It would seem that those who elect to present their views actively
in the public arena deliberately expose themselves to the public. See
Associated Pross v. Walker, 388 U.S. 130 (1967). Any recording of their
activities by the deiendants does not invade their privacy any more than
does a newspaper, radio, or television story, and, indeed, much less since
any information compiled is usable and effective only through court action.
Tatum v. Laird, 444 E2d 947, 957 (D. C. Cir. 1971).
More difficult questions are presented where the investigation
delves into the private affair's of the individuals or organizations. Bụt
even here, the courts have generally sustained our procedures so long as
they comport with the restrictions of the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments.

In summary, it is premature to say that the First Amendment
line of cases, dealing with the "chilling" concept offers any substantial
impediment to our intelligence investigations. There is less reason for
optimism, however, with regard to congressional intervention. We
should be prepared,
therefore, to meet arguments regarding the need
for outside supervision. The sound answer, which should satisfy
governmental needs and individual rights, is found in tight internal
controls and carefully developed guidelines.

The criteria and guidelines for FbI investigations

the "I. B. I. Handbook, " and in Letters to all Special Agents
In Charge. In addition, Ins. rions and guidance are given
to the ljeld in Headquarters commuxications on specilic cases.
Compliance with criterianno quicelines is obtained by super-

vision in both the fiold and at Bureau Headquarters. In
addition, regular inspections of field and Headquarters
Divicions assure that Bureau policies concerning investiga
clons are being Lollowed.
in the security tield, the basic responsibility of
the rBE is to
investigate revolutionary organizations dedicated
to the violoni overthrow or destruction of the United States
Government. These include old line Marsist groups, for example,
the Connunist, Party, USA, and the Trotskyist Soclalist Workers
Party; and such new revolutionary groups as the Students for
a Denociatic Society, the Black Panther Party and the Weatherman.

The mission of the FBI in the

priorities of counterintelligence have been variousiy statca
and evaluated. Generally, these objectives may be listed In

identification of intelligence operations and agents;
(2) the penetration of these operations for the purpose
of control and the development of intelligonce information;
(3) neutralization of hostile Intelligence operations through
aisruption and disinformation; and, (4) prosecution. Whatever
the assigned priority, the overall ebjective is to deny access
to information sought by whatever pinctical means are available.
Toroign intelligence investigations are grounded in
the Espionage statute and related lows including the Registra-
tion and Atonic Energy Acis. Individual Investigations are
initiated usually on the basis of & known or suspected connec
tion with a foreign intelligonce service, foreign country or
subversive organization rich such connections. Since these
investigations emanate iron various sensitive sources and.
Involve special considerations, estensive criteria and
Limitations are deined and enumerated in current instruetions.
in general texns, the governing criteria are designed
to preclude initiation and continuanco of investigations which
are

Information Storage and Retrieval
The storage and retrieval of Information is a

for these functions provide for writton records of informa

These "ray" filos are maintained both at the Seat of Govern

ANDMUIDORITY I DOMESTIC
INTELL GICE INVESTIGATIONS
ALL INFORMATION CONTAINED
HEROIN IS UNCLASSIFIED
During our mecting on July 29, 1973, you referred to a discussion
• you lad with Senator Charlos WeC. Mathias, Jr., of Maryland during your con-
firmation hetrings ns to the statutory authority of the FBI and the Departnent of
Justice in the field of domestic intelligence investigations. You then asked
Air. Wiltium D. Luckcichous to work with the FBI in weighing the pros and cons
with regard to statutory authority in this area. I mentioned that rescarch wes
touch with Air. luckelshaus with regord to this matter when we have completed
tho roaclis of our concidoration and lindings within the FBI.
Actually, a study has been going on in the fBI for more than two.
years as to the scope of lil jurisdiction and authority, in domestic intelligence
investigations. When Mir. L. Patrick Gray, Ill, Was designated as Acting
Dircotur of the FBI; he inotrucied that a position paper be prepared conccin-
ing the jurisdiction and authority of the FBI to conduct domestic intolligenee
investigations. A position paper was propared wlich in essence sinted that
authorily of the FBI in this field is bosed on legisintive enactmonts, even
though we may have publicly relied kcavily on Fresidential directives as the
basis for such authority. Mr. Gray ordered an in-donth study made of the
position and in August, 1972, a defailed report was furnished to him. I'ho
following is a summary of that report.
Over a period of several nonths there were a number of public
• statemente questioning authority and jurisdiction of the FBI to conduct comestic
intelligence-type invescinutions, particularly where there is no clear-cut
legislative authority apparent. One of the most scarching inquiries was con-
tained in a paper presented by Professor John I. Clue et a tve dey conforence
at Princcton University in October, 1911, sponsored by the Committee for Public
Justico.

A major thrust of Professor Elliff's paper concorned FBI authority
derived from legislative enactments as opposed to thut derived from Prosidential
directives, beginning with a dircetive issued by President Roosevelt in
September, 1939. Protessor Elliff is of the opinion ihat the 1939 directive,
which was reiterated on three subsequent occasions, was nagnified by the
FBi from its original purpose to & definitive order to conduct inteiligence-type
investigations.
Senator Send. Ervin, as you know, had been probing into the
nature and extont of FBI intelligonco-type investigations. Sunator Ervin had
even announced that he intended to proyose legislation to prohibit the BI
from Investigating any person without that individual's concent, unless the
Government has roason to believe that person hus commitied a crime or' is
about to commit a crime. Other Congreesmen indicated a similar intcrost
in Fist investicative activities.
Our study revealed that the FBI had declared publicly over a
long period of time thri its responsibilities in the domestic intelligence field
are authorized under ingisinüve enactments, Fresidentic directives, und
instructions of the Attorney General. 'the Presidontiai dircetives are obviously
the 1) directive dated September 6, 1039, and reiterated January 8, 1043;
July 21, 1060; and Deceinbor 15, 1953, and 2) Exccutive Order 10450 dated
april 28, 1053 (ond unended but not yet implomented by Executive Order
11005 dated duly 2, 1971).
In carciully analyzing the language of the first directive, dated
September &, 1039, and considering that the subscquent dircetives are all
hinged on that one, we believe that there is a misconception as to the extent
oi jurisdiction or authority conveyed to the Ill by these dircotives. It
appears that while the 1530 directive fixed responsibility on the Fol to handic
espionage, sabotage, and neutality matters, it did not convoy uny authority
or jurisdiction which the fill did not arcady have from lorisiative chactients.
It is ditficult to read into this directive or in any of those which followed any
authority to conduct intelligence-type investigations which would or could
120t be conducted under un umbrella of legislative enactments.

As & matter of historical fact, Prosident Roosevelt in August,
1936, did request formor Director d. Edgar licover to conduct investigations
of subversive activitios in this country, including communton and fasciem.
This request, however, was a confrontial oral roquest and there is doubt
that any record of it was made outride the FM. This request, or Presidential
mandate, was based, incidantally, on the fuet that the law provided that the
IBl could conduct such invostigatons if the Socrutary of State should so
request.
The study sovenled that while tie 1029 ct gog. dirceliver did not
grant any special intelligence gatbering authorty to the Ell, we were respon
sible under these directives to collect all intelligence informaton furnished
by local, sinte, and Esdural law en reement agencies and patriotic citizens
and to sift und coordinalo all such information for indications of subversive
activity covered by Fedural siatutue.
The study concluded that the FDI has the rosponsibility to con-
duct whatever investigutiona te nocussary to dotermine if ctatutes rciating
to espionage, sabotage, insurrection or zeboltion, scation, seditious con-
spirney, ncrocody of ovortbrowing the Government, and other such crimes
aficeting the national security have boon violeled, In this connection we
note that in o. leiter dnted September 14, 106?, the Departnont of Justies
advised that the FBl is continually alert to the grublem of zccurring riots
and is submitting intelbironce reports to the legretment oi Justice concern-
ing such activity. This letter onumerated sororal Federal statutes end
stated these could be appliable in using maximum available resources,
investigative and intcitizonce, to crllect and ropert all facts bearing on
tho question of schemos os conspiracies to plan, promote on eggravato clot
activity.
In other words, the Dopartment was requesting all possible
intelle cotte the c cans co vie bat suit bi nitro of retain
investigations relating i0 plans of groups or individuals to overthrow,
destroy, intorfore with or threaten the survival of eifective oporation of
national, state, and local governments.

Based on this study, we believe that hod there never been a
single one of the l'rcridentiul directives is question the fBI would have
conducted and will, through necossity, continue to conduct the same intelli-
gence-type investitations as were conductud from 1939 to the present dait.
We also bellove, however, thai in order to counter the criticiam and skepti-
cism ot such individuals as I'rofeseor Bllift and Senator Fun 2. Ervin that
an up-to-date Escentive order should be issued clearly establishing & need
for iniolligence-type investigations and delineuting a clow authority for the
FBI to conduct euch investigutions based on guidelines established by the
Attorney Gonersi aud adhering to constitutional principles.
The study concinded with two baoic recommendations.
1) That the Dopartment of Justice be requested to sponsor comprchensive
legislation spelling cut the lal's investigutive nuthority in the collection of
Bepartment of Justico be regussted to seck a comprehensive Executive order
which woal couct uny possible gop beiwoen statutory suthority and Executive
necessity in protection of the notional seourity.
At fiast glance tiese recommendations may appear to contradict
our porition that we already, huve statutory suthority to condect socurity-type
investigations; that this being the case we do not need additional legislative
enactmunts, nos do we need an ixocutivo order. But being realistic we think:
that the basio statutes upon which we reiy fon our authority to conduct
domosiic intelligence investigadons need to be updated to tit 1978 needs.
Title 15 U.S.C. Suctions 2062, 2384, and 2335 relate to the nutional security,
but the legislarive listory où 2303 and 2081 indicates that they were designed
for the Civil War era, not the lwentieth Century, and Soction 2385 has been
reduced to a fragilo shell by the Supreme Court. Chose statutes are unques-
tionably still valid, but undating is certainly indicnted. The bills introduced
as 1i.I. 6046 and ö. 1400 in lid 952'd Congress appear to contain lenguege which
should fill our stuistory necds, except perhaps for those groupe, such as the
Ku klur ilan, which do not sock to overthrow the Government, but never
theless are totditurian in nature and seck to deprive constitutionally cuarantecu
rightis.

As to the need for un Executive order, we think that two lssues
are involved. We have statutory authority, but what we need is a chirative
requirement from the President as to the nature and type of intelligence data
he requirca in the pursuit of his responsibititics based on our statutory
authority. In other words, thore is a need, from eur standpoint, for both
authoritative and definitive guidelines. The stututes give us the authority.
The Exccutive order would defino our national security objectives.
Member's of Congrose, Including such men as Senator Robert C.
• Byrd of West Virginia, have proposed legiclution to spoll out jurisdedion and
authority of the F'DI in this field. It would appeur that the Prosidont would
rather spell out his own requirements in an Esecutive order instend of having
Congresa tell him what the FBI might do to help hin fullil his obligations and
responsibiuties as President.
The polliical climute of suspicion and distrust resulting fron
disclosures coming out of the Motorgate neurings could present an obutnole
to getting any such Executive order signed in the immeciate future. Lowever,
the rationale is novertheless valid and when scrutinizos closcly, the Jenguage
in the likecutive order we hereinatter propose establishes definitive mádelines
which have heretofore been unclear, It is my belicf that we should go forward
with this.
We therofore propose and recommend that on Exccutive order
along the following lines be submitted to the White Louse with a stoog
recommendation for approval. The language which foliows is mercy to
¡lustrate the type oi ixecutive order which we thunk would be appropriate
and does not necessarily represent an ideal format or style whick should
be subruitied to the Thite House.

killing of police officurs who, by their uniforn, arc a symbol of the democratic
establishicht; hijacking of aircraft in furtherance of revolutionary movements;
terrorist assaults on forcign disonatic personnel and establishments; and open
declaration of wer on vur form o government are only a low of the violent acts
which have bech perpetruted by domestic subversives who seek to destroy or
seriously cripplo our Governmont. Terrorist guerrilla attacks which were
once confined to far away places and zelated to problems of no immediate con-
cern of ours are now possible in this country: Foreign torrorist groups in
collusion with domestic forrorists have laid plans for an airport massacre of
the type which rocenty cccurred in Isracl. Other foreign terrorist elements
have laid plans for terrorist attrains on Americul soil. Arcady one foreign
official has been assassinated, possibly by tercorists.
it would be folly to Mopt an investgative policy based on
the concelt of investigation only then there in rcason to believe a crime
involving the nationol sicurity tea beer contitted. The FBi must
obviously anticipate tue eries doscribed above. We believe that in
older' for the Covermant to be in position to lutend itscli against revolu-
tionary and terrorist eflorts to costroy it, the kEl must have sufficient
investigative authority to conduct intelligence-type investigations not
normally associated with enforcemant of the ctututes. In other words we
think the Fresident has the inhoient Baecutive power to expand by further
defining the Ill's invostigative authority to cauble it to develop advance
information concerniny the plans und aspirations of terrorists and revolu-
tionarios who seek to overthrow or destroy the Government. However, we
also beliove that such expanded authority must be formally soi forth in an
Executive order and that this reccimendation is responsive in the littorney
General's expressed interest in lrying more formal guidelines to our work
in areas where definition is not now cloar.
We consider the issuance of a now Executive order delineating
our jurisdiction, authority, and responsibility to gather and report intellence
information relating to the national security to be a very important and high
priority matter. We bolieve the issuance of guidelines by the Attorney General
under Title 28, Section 533, Unitod States Code, to be equally important.

For your information, our own investigative guidelines as con-

ADDENDUM: Intelligence Division, WOC:aso, 4/4/75
The Intelligence Division has reviewed the attached figures
prepared by the Administrative Division. Under the criteria of the current
Classification Act it would be impossible to justify classification of these
figures; however, should they be made public or fall into the hands of a
hostile foreign intelligence service, it would reveal the current capability
the FBI employs in the field of counterintelligence against the total foreign
threat. In view of the above, the Intelligence Division strongly recommends
that the Legal Counsel Division discuss this with the staff of the Senate
Select Committee pointing out the vulnerability implicit in this attachment
in an effort to have the Committee withdraw its request identified as III C.

ADDENDUM: LEGAL, COUNSEL DIVISION
4-14-75
Kegarding the observations of the Intelligence Division
concerning the making available the amount of manpower dedicated to
counterintelligence and domestic intelligence work in the IDI, the
Legal Counsel Division has the following observations:
(1) Based on our analysis and conversations this
Division has had with Fred B, Criflith of the Inspection Division, it-
appears that the information contained in this merorandum may be
classified confidential under. Executive order 11652.
(2) Before moking any determination as to whether wo
make such information available to tho Canate Celect Committee, it
would appear we should determine from CIA what their response to
such a request will be so that our position and that of CIA will be
consistent in this area. In this regard SA Faul V. Daly has contacted
Leon F. Echwartz, Liaison Section of Intelligence Division, and requeated
he dctermine front CiA what their position in this regard is.
(3) It is not believed that we should take a hard and inst
position that this information not be made avallable to the Committee or
that we make an effort to have the Committee withdraw their request for
this information. Tre should rather develop some fallback position sach
as that this information will be made available to the Chairman ot the
Committee or will be made available during an oral briefing, etc.

In connection with our investigations of staff members for
captioned Committee, we have developed derogatory information on two
individuals which has been brought specifically to the attention of William Miller,
Staff Director of the Committee, One of these involved Mrs. Diane Eloise
LaVoy whose sister-in-law questioned her loyalty and declared she "does not
love America." The sister-in-law said Mrs. LaVoy constantly criticized the
U. S. Government and its policy and underlying weaknesses of our society.
Another individual said she was highly critical of CIA activities. This information
was pointed out to Miller on 3-25-75 when the results of the investigation were
delivered to him, and he also was advised that the CIA would be furnished the same
data in accordance with our agreement concerning these matters.
On 3-24-75 and 3-28-75 results of the investigation coneerning
Mrs. Betty Dale Ellison were delivered to Miller and he was advised that a prief
supervisor with eight years of training and experience in psychiatric care states
he felt Mrs. Ellison needs psychological examination. He termed her a troubleg
maker and said he would have fired her if he had the authority. He described
her definitely as a security risk due to her mental and emotional instability.
It
lalso was pointed out to Miller that other former supervisors described her as
unstable when working under pressure and unable to get along with fellow emplo
ees.
Miller was told that this information also would be furnished to CIA.
On 4-2-75 Miller advised Inspector Bowers he had considered the
matter involving Mrs. LaVoy and had discussed it with the Committee Chairman,
and they had decided to proceed with her as a staff member since they did not feel
the derogatory remarks by her sister-in-law were sufficiently strong enough to
disqualify her since the remainder of the investigation was favorable.

Miller also advised on 4-2-75 that their review of the Ellison
investigation showed justifiable concern for her being cleared for the staff, and
he asked for any guidance we might give him. It was pointed out that the only
real solution to the situation seemed to be that she not be added to the staff.
Miller said he would appreciate any comments from the CIA also in this regard.

Director Sec'y
and Special Agent Paul V. Daly met with William Miller, Staff Director;
Frederick A. O. Schwarz, Jr., Chief Counsel; and Michael T. Epstein of
the Senate Select Committee (SSC) staff. During the meeting Mr. Schwarz
requested a briefing be arranged for staff members of SSC concerning the
ve'
operations of the Intelligence Division, that they be furnished copies of training
documents pertaining to matters handled by the Intelligence Division, and that
they be furnished a glossary of terms used in the intelligence field. He pointed
out the aforementioned material would greatly assist in the SSC staff developing
an understanding of the Intelligence Division operations and hopefully prevent
misunderstandings or needless requests of the FBI.
Mr. Miller advised that Senators Frank Church and John Tower
intended to contact the Director in the immediate future to discuss arrangements
relating to the SSC's review of the FBI activities.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
(1) Intelligence Division review and where possible make available
training documents relating to training concerning Intelligence Division matters
and a glossary of terms used in the intelligence field, or recommend a sounter offer,

At 11:00 a.m. on April 17, 1975, Inspector John B. Hotis
Special Agent Paul V. Daly and I met with Deputy Attorney General Tyler
and Associate Deputy Attorney General James Hutchinson at the request
of the Deputy Attorney General.
Deputy Attorney General Tyler advised that he had been requested
by Burke Marshall and F.A. O. Schwarz, II, who are consultant and General
Counsel, respectively, for the Senate Select Committee, to meet with
him on Monday afternoon, April 21, 1975, to discuss matters relating
to the Committee's activities. The Deputy Attorney General said that he
has been personally acquainted with Mr. Marshall for a long time and also
is acquainted with Mr. Schwarz. He considered the possibility of having
a Bureau representative attend the meeting, but then decided it would be
best if he would meet with Marshall and Schwarz privately to determine
whether they desire to discuss details of the Committee's responsibilities
and if it became necessary, he would request the Bureau to send a
representative to the meeting.

+63-116395-99
The Deputy Attorney General said that he would, of course,
advise us orally or in writing of the results of his conference with Mr. Marshall
and Mr. Schwarz.
2 APR 22 1975
The Deputy Attorney General inquired as to the procedure
currently being employed in responding to the Committee's requests
and Inspector Hotis explained the current procedures. I mentioned to the
Deputy Attorney General the existence of the Ad Hoc Committee of
Intelligence Agencies and suggested to him that he might desire to designate
a representative to attend those meetings in order to be on notice as to the
policies being developed by the White House and the intelligence community
in responding to Committee requests. I explained to him that James

Memorandum to Mr. Adams
Re: Senate Select Committee on Intelligence
Department's representative on the Committee, but he has now been
reassigned to responsibilities at the White House. I told him that
Assistant Attorney General Scalia had been scheduled to attend the last
meeting of the Committee, although he was unable to attend. The
Deputy Attorney General said that he would discuss with Mr. Scalia
the possibility of having Mr. Scalia attend as the Department's
representative.
I asked the Deputy Attorney General whether he was undertaking
the principal responsibility in the Department for matters relating to the
Senate Select Committee and other committees that may be inquiring
into the FBI and he said that that was not clear as yet because the Attorney
General has taken a personal interest in these matters and it appeared that
the responsibilities are still fragmented within the Department. It was
his opinion that the responsibilities should be centralized and he appeared to be
willing to undertake that responsibility.
It was my impression that the Deputy Attorney General was
interested in being of assistance to the FBI in these matters and expressed
a willingness to cooperate by having the FBI participate as much as
possible with the Deputy Attorney General.

Mr. WIlTiam G. Miller is the Staff Director
for the Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations
with respect to intelligence activities.
On 10/5/73,
representatives of our Washington Field
interviewed Mr. Miller, with Bureau approval, relative to
contacts he had had with members of the soviet Embassy,
Washington, D. C.
SAt that time, Mir. Miller vas the
Director of the Special Senate Committee to Terminate the
National
Emergency.
On that occasion he was most coopera-
tive, and upon being advised that the FBI's interest in
(S)[Soviet Embassy personnel focused more on their personalities
rather than Soviet policies per se, Mr. Miller agreed to
be intervieved whenever the FBI felt such was necessary.

Rapota and possibly other soviets.
WFO has noted that
mr. Miller is also known to have been in contact with
Aleksandr A. Kokorev, a First Secretary of the Soviet
Embassy, Washington,
D. C., and a known officer of the
Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU). 5
While Mr. Miller was most cooperative on the last
occasion he was interviewed by the FBI, it is noted he did
not provide any particularly significant information con-
cerning the Soviets with whom he had contacts)While it is
not known at this time whether he could presently provide
meaningful information, an interview with him at this time,
when he is now the Staff Director of the Select Committee
to Study Governmental Operations, could well be untimely and
indiscreet.
ACTION:
(1) In view of impending contacts which will be
had by EBIHQ with hr. Miller, the purpose of this memorandur
is to draw attention to the fact that Mr. Miller has hac
past contact with representatives of Soviet intelligence
services and may be continuing to have same. (5)
peter
(2) If you agree,
there is attached a communication
to VTO captioned,
"Grigoriy A. Rapota; IS - R (SOVEMB-
KGB)" which denys authority for an interview with Mr.
Miller
at this tine and instructs that office to promptly advise
FBIHQ of any additional contacts between Mr. Miller and
representatives of the Soviet Embassy, Washington, D. C.,
which may come to its attention. (5)

a task force entitled Project Senstudy 75.
The concept behind the establishment of this Project
is to develop a capability of implementing requests received
from Select Committees of the Congress in a comprehensive and
timely fashion but yet allow the Bureau to continue to conduct
its day-to-day business in as normal a manner as possible.
We believe that by creating this facility we will be able
meet the requirements of these Select Committees with the
exception of the research that will have to be done in the
substantive Divisions.
While the Project will direct internal work and
related liaison with the intelligence community and the
White House staff, we envision the Legal Analysis Unit Office
of Legal Counsel Division as continuing to be the primary
point of direct contact with the Select Committees of the
Congress.
They will receive all requests and deliver all
responses to these Committees.
In addition, they will meet
with the staffs of the Committees to insure the reasonableness
of requests.
If necessary, they will call upon the expertise
of the substantive Division for determination as to whether
a proposed request from the Committees can be responded to
within a reasonable period of time and within the capabilities
of the FBI's information retrieval systeft- 106

Memorandum to Mr. W. R. Wannall
Re:
Senstudy 75
Because of the White House insistence that all requests
land responses be completely coordinated and available for review
by White House representatives, it is imperative that the Project
have a self-sustained records facility to insure immediate access
to requests received from and responses furnished to the Select
Committees:
In addition, in those instances where certain FBI
documents furnished to the Select Committees must be sanitized
copies dat le imperative this records facility not only retal
the sanitized documents but also copies of the original
For these reasons a senior clerical employee has been
requested to function as a Records Manager for the Project.
In addition to the above, there will be stenographic
and clerical personnel assigned to the Project to support the
work of the Bureau Supervisors. We have not committed any more
personnel to the Project than are absolutely necessary at the
present time.
Should the requests of the Select Committees
require additional personnel, appropriate memoranda will be
submitted with
a complete justification for additional personnel
assigned to the Project.
Although the physical space for the Project is
limited, all personnel connected with Project Senstudy 75
will be located in Room 4063, J. Edgar Hoover Building. This
space is physically located within the Intelligence Division.
As a matter of interest, Mr. James Wilderotter,
Associate Counsel to the President, has requested that should
any member of the intelligence community get requests from other
Committees of the Congress which impact on the intelligence
community; could be of interest to the White House;or are of such
sensitivity that coordination is required, copies of both the
requests and an abstract of the responses should be made
available to the Interagency Registry.

APRIL 11, 1975*
As you were previously advised, William Miller, Staff Director
of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities, requested that we
provide a briefing for certain staff members of the Committee on the functions
of the Intelligence Division. He asked that the briefing cover both internal
security and foreign counterintelligence operations and that it provide a broad
overview of our investigative responsibilities.
1. artis
The Intelligence Division is prepared to offer a two-hour briefing
beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, 4-11-75. It will include a slide show to
be followed by a general discussion and an opportunity to afford questions. and
answers. After a luncheon break, the staff members will be given a brief tour
of the Files and Communications Division.
Since the briefing will cover classified materials, no staff
members will be invited unless they have appropriate security clearances. As
a consequence Professor John Elliff, who has been tentatively named Director
of the Committee's Task Force on Domestic Intelligence, will not attend. It
is hoped that we may provzde him with a privat let fung at some later date:

"The Washington Post," Thursday, 4-10-75, edition
on page A31 contains an article reporting an interview of Senator Frank
Church, Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities.
Senator Church, according to this article, stated that the Committee is
reserving the right to make public eventually any documents it gets and is
accepting nothing with "strings attached."
Inasmuch as this Committee is also the Committee which the
FBI is furnishing information tod, it is believed a clarification of Senator Church's
statement must be obtained and in the interim we should furnish the Senate
Select Committee only those documents which do not have a caveat such as
classified documents or documents bearing the property stamp.
Section Chief William O. Cregar advised that he had contacted
Dr. John M. Clarke, Associate Deputy to the DCI for the Intelligence Committee
concerning Senator Church's reported statement. Clarke stated that CIA
Director William E. Colby was highly upset at Church's remark and that
this statement would be a topic of a discussion of the Executive Committee meeting
of the Ad Hoc Coordinating Group on Congressional Review the morning of
4-11-75. We will be represented at that conference by Section Chief William O.
Cregar and Assistant Director John A. Mintz. Clarke indicated the position.
that the CIA will apparently take regarding this problem is that the White House
should obtain the clarification although CIA Director Colby initially was prepared
to send a letter over his signature to Senator Church to obtain such clarification.
REC 40 d-116375
Inasmuch as the request by this Committee was forwarded throug
the Department, Senator Church's statement was brought to the attention of
Douglas Marvin, Assistant to the Attorney General, who has been handling
all FBI responses to Senate Select Committee requests. Marvin indreated te
was concerned at Church's statement and stated it was the Attorney General's
desire that he be advised of any Bureau response to the Committee

Executive Committee of the Ad Hoc Coordinating Group
on Congressional Review of the Intelligence Community (here-
alter referred to as the FXCOM), held at CIA Headquarters on
the
morning of 4/4/75."
This meeting was chaired by Mr. Colby in his role as
the Director of Central Intelligence. In attendance were
Mr. Roderick Hills, Assistant Counsel to the President; Associate
Deputy AG Wilderotter; Mr. John Clarke; as well as senior officials
from Defense, Treasury, National Security Council, Office of
Management and Budget,
and the Energy Research and Development
Administration.
The following items of interest were discussed:
Mr. Roderick Hills reported that he had a meeting
with the Counsel and Staff Director of the Senate Select Com
mittee (SSC) to discuss having Legal Counsel present when members
of a particular agency were being interviewed by SSC staff person-
nel.
The essence of this meeting resulted in the SSC being
receptive to such an arrangement but it would be incumbent upon
each agency, department or bureau to negotiate the specific
arrangements for such representation with the SSC. Hills also
discussed the problem of the unknown employee or former employee
who might request to be interviewed unbeknownst to the parent
agency.
It was suggested to the Counsel and Staff Director by
Hills that such an employee be interviewed by only one staff
that the staff member attempt to
the parent agency to insure the agency could provide advice
to the sensitivity of the unknown employee's testimony.. No firm

testimony of a secret employee and following such testimony
the employee will be allowed to meet with staff members of
the SSC in an Executive Session. It is anticipated more
definitive information on the final decisions regarding this
aspect will be forthcoming from the White House.
The question was raised by the Bureau representative
Is to whether the Ad Hoc Group and/or the interagency registry
hould be notified as to requests members of the Intelligenc
Community receive from other Congressional committees.
Mr.
Wilderotter advised that this would be a judgment question;
however, if a request from a Congressional committee other
• than
the Select Committees impacted on the Intelligence Community,
involve sensitive issues or would be of interest to the White
House, such requests should be provided to the interagency
Iregistry along with an abstract of the response.
Attached is a list of those members of the SSC staff
who have been certified for access to compartmented information.
Also attached is a paper identifying 10 issues likely to grow
out of Select Committee
deliberations. The pencil notation in
the right-hand column identifies those agencies of the Intelli-
gence Community responsible for preparing a paper which addresses
these issues.
It is noted that issue identified as number eight
is entitled,
that the FBI prepare this paper. Assistant Director Mintz advised
that the Bureau has a study underway on this very subject and
"Intelligence Files and Privacy bired sub deadlin
agreed that the Bureau would prepare this study. The deadline
for completion of the study is 4/25/75.
Also attached is a copy of the survey of the SSC facility,
Room G-308, Dirksen Building, covering all aspects of physical and
technical security. None of
the participants of the EXCOM had
any
objection to the facility and we presume the SSC will abide by
the procedures outlined in the attached survey report.
Attached also for information is a draft of an employee
notice and agreement concerning treatment of confidential material
being considered by the SSC.
It is to be noted that to date neither
the Committeenor its staff has signed any such Secrecy Agreement.

air is passed from the auditorium to the air handling equip-
ment on the roof. These registers are solidly bolted into
the walls.
The front of the auditorium (south wall) is covered by
a large movie screen.
To the right and left of the movie

by the research section clerical personnel.
These rooms
have countertop openings approximately 3' above the floor
for access from within the auditorium.
Countertop openings
exist along both sidewalls th approximately three quarters
of the length of the wall.

end. Access is gained by two stairways on the east and west
side of the auditorium. The second floor space consists of a
large projection room, currently filled with projection equip-
ment, and five small private film viewing rooms.

it will be
placed in the locked trunk of Mr. Marshall's automobile and
taken to the Federal Reserve Building incinerator where he
will witness destruction by burning.
In the event this incin-
erator is booked to capacity, he will take the classified waste
and burn it at the D. C. incinerator.

continues to monitor this area to provide the Committee
with as much security protection against the Audio threat
as possible..
N. Shredder
The facility has one Destroyit Model 51 Shredder used
only for shredding the most sensitive documents.

NOTES FOR SESSION

1188
In previous sessions we discussed the importance of
highlighting issues likely.to grow.out.of Commission.on
Committee deliberations.
We observed that we should identify
isome of those on which a legal brief or annex would be helpful
to Executive Branch initiatives.
The idea was to select a
few where a solid research paper with options, pros and cons,
etc., could help us develop a firm grip on the questions in
issue and identify options.
For example, the question of
-Executive.privacy presents. itself, and I.gather is being:
worked on.
There are others we feel it would be useful for the group
to address
and assign responsibility for further work. For
example:

This memorandum reports the results of a meeting
of the Ad Hoc Coordinating Group on Congressional Review of
the Intelligence Community (hereafter referred to as the
Group), held at CIA Headquarters on the morning of 4/2/75.
The study prepared for the President's Foreign
Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIAB) entitled, "Human Intel-
ligence," has come to the attention of the Senate Select
Committee (SSC).
The major contributors to this report were
the FBI and CIA. It is an extremely sensitive document and
for that reason
any requests from any committees of the
Congress for copies of this report should be referred to the
White House.
At the present time, the consensus of those
persons in
the White House dealing with the subject of release
of information to the committees of Congress is that this
report will not be provided Congressional committees at this
time.
The SSC does recognize a requirement to comply with
the Third Agency Rule which states in effect that classified
information or material originating in one department shall
not be disseminated outside any other department to which it
has been made available without the consent of the originatin.
department.
CIA's General Counsel has produced a paper entitled
"The Third Agency Rule," copy attached, which they have requested
be reviewed by the Legal Counsels of all agencies making up the
Intelligence Community.
A copy of CIA's paper referred to above
has been made available to Assistant Director Mintz who has
indicated he will be in direct siC ift with Mr. Warner, CIA's
General Counsel.

RE:

objections be furnished to the Security Committee of the
United States Intelligence Board (USIB) for consideration.
A copy of these guidelines has been furnished to the Freedom
of Information Unit of the Legal Counsel Division for review.
Their comments will be furnished to the Bureau's representative,
Mr. Frank Schwartz, on the USIB Committee in compliance with
the mandate from the Ad Hoc Group.
Also attached is a copy of the abstract which all
agencies of the Intelligence Community are being required to
use in abstracting information that agency has provided one
of the select Committees.
These abstracts will be retained
in an interagency registry to be available for review by any
members of the Intelligence Community as well as the White
HousE.
The purpose of this interagency registry is to have
available in one location all information in abstract form
that
members of the Intelligence Community have provided the
ssC.
Attached is a memorandum for: Mr. John Clarke, Chairman
of the Group, advising the names and titles of individuals on
Congressman Nedzi's staff or on the staff of the House Armed
Services Committee who have been approved for access to classi-
fied material.
It is
assumed that these persons will have
continuing close
relations with Congressman Nedzi and may be
officially associated with the House Select Committee.
Also attached is a letter from Senator Church, Chairman
of the Select Committee, addressed to the President enclosing a
list of documents which the SSC is requesting from the White House.

For information and record purposes.

The Third Agency Rule
ATI INPORMATION CORTAIIINO
HERETN IS UNCTASSITIED
DATE 1/1 8/01
345P2
LN 55118
1. As early as November 1953, the third agency rule was
included in Executive Order 10501, which has now been revoked.
Section 7(c) prohibited the dissemination of "classified defense
information originating in another Department or agency" to an
agency "outside the receiving Department or agency without the
consent of the originating Department or agency". The only excep
bon to this rule is that dissemination may be made under the authority
of Section 102 of the National Security Act. This section authörizes...
the Director of Central Intelligence "to correlate and evaluate intelli-
gence relating to the national security, and provide for the appropriate
dissemination of such intelligence within the Government using, where
appropriate, existing agencies and facilities".
2. Historically, the responsibility of the DCI to disseminate
intelligence has referred to "finished intelligence". This product is
the end result of contributions from members of the Intelligence Commu-
nity. Therefore, in this situation the finished product is ay homogenous
product and therefore the approval for further dissemination beyond the
receiving agency must come from the Central Intelligence Agency.
3. Executive Order 10501 was superseded by Executive Order
11652 which became effective 1 June 1972. This Executive order did not
specifically cover the third agency rule. However, it does provide the
following controls: Sec..9. Special Departmental Arrangements. The
originating Department or other appropriate authority may impose, in
conformity with the provisions of this order, special requirements with
respect to access, distribution and protection of classified information
and material, including those which presently relate to communications
intelligence, intelligence sources and methods and cryptography.
4. In anticipation of the implementation of Executive Order
11652, a directive was issued on May 17, 1972 entitled "National Security
Council Directive Governing the Classification, Downgrading, Declassi-
fication and Safeguarding of National Security Information". This
-directive does not contain the term "third agency rule" but does have
four subsections which relate to procedures which are similar to what
historically had been called the third agency rule. These sections are:
A. (2) Determination of Need-to-Know. In addition to a
security clearance, a person must have a need for access
to the particular classified information or material sought
in connection with the performance of his official duties or
DocId: 32989628

tractual obligations. The deter
nation of thạt need
shall be made by officials having responsibility for the
classified information or material.
D. Consent of Originating Department to Dissemination
by Recipient. Except as otherwise provided by Section
102 of the National Security Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 495, 50
U.S.C. 403, classified information or material originating
in one Department shall not be disseminated outside any
other Department to which it has been made available
without the consent of the originating Department.
E. Dissemination of Sensitive Intelligence Information.
Information or material bearing the notation "WARNING
NOTICE -- SENSITIVE INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND
METHODS INVOLVED" shall not be disseminated in any
manner outside authorized channels without the permission
of the originating Department and an assessment by the
senior intelligence official in the disseminating Department
as to the potential risk to the national security and to the
intelligence sources and methods involved.
F. Restraint on Special Access Requirements. The
establishment of special rules limiting access to, distri-
bution and protection of classified införmation and material
under Section 9 of the Order requires the specific prior
approval of the head of a Department or his designee.
5. Examples of the application of the Third Agency Rule are:
(a) In a national security estimate, contributions are
received from all members of the Intelligence Community and
then disseminated to members of the community under the
authority of the DCI;
(b) A CIA intelligence report disseminated to the State
Department may not be sent by the State Department to
the Department of Commerce without the permission of the
CIA;
(c) Information which the CIA furnishes the President's
Commission may not be disseminated to other agencies or
to the Congress without the concurrences of CIA. Thus,
a request from the Congress to the Commission for CIA
information should be referred to CIA for action so that
the necessary protection of the information can be insured.

(d)
If the Navy Department discusses one of its operations
with CIA, CIA may not include information about that operation
in papers it disseminates to other agencies unless it has
received the permission of the Navy Department. The distinc-
tion here is that a Navy operation would not be considered part
of the finished intelligence mechanism and therefore would
not fall within the statutory authority of CIA to disseminate
intelligence.

¡HE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
WASHINGTON, D. C. 20505
28 March 1975
MEMORANDUM FOR: USIB Ad Hoc Group
SUBJECT:
Handling of Third Agency Matters in Response
to Congressional Select Committees
+*
'CONTAT
1. As you are aware, Senator Church already has submitted
to me a long list of materials which he requests be provided to his
Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with
Respect to Intelligence Activities. He has submitted other lists to
the Federal Bureau of Investigation and to the White House.. It is
expected that other elements of the Intelligence Community will
be hearing from Senator Church.
2. The scope of the investigation necessarily is going to
involve Third Agency relationships to a considerable degree.
3. In the implementation of Executive Order 11652,
"Classification and Declassification of National Security Information
and Material, " the President directed the following:
• "D. Consent of Originating Department to Dissemination
by Recipient.
Except as otherwise provided by Section 102
of the National Security Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 495, 50 U.S. C.
403, classified information or material originating in one
Department shall not be disseminated outside any other
Department to which it has been made available without the
consent of the originating department."
4. As regards Section 102 of the 1947 Act, the following
quotes 102 (e) in full:
"(3) To the extent recommended by the National Security
Council and approved by the President, such intelligence
of the departments and agencies of the Government, except
as hereinafter provided, relating to the national security,

shall be open to the inspection of the Director of Central
Intelligence, and such intelligence as relates
to the
national security and is possessed by such departments and
other agencies of the Government, except as hereinafter
provided, shall be made available to the Director of
Central Intelligence for correlation, evaluation and
dissemination: Provided, however, that upon the written
request of the Director of Central Intelligence, the Director
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall make available
to the Director of Central Intelligence such information .
for correlation, evaluation and dissemination as may be
essential to the national security. "
5. If I am requested to provide certain materials and
investigation indicates that the material asked for involves a document
which originated within an organization other than the Intelligence
Community Staff or the Central Intelligence Agency, the requestor
will be asked to redirect his inquiry to the office of origin..
6. It already is apparent, however, that the documentation

relationships among various of the elements of the intelligence
. community.
Clearing
each and every such reft ence with arcry
agency mentioned could manifestly be extremely consuming of time
and manpower.
?. I propose the Ad Hoc Group agree on the following procedure.
Where it appears that truly sensitive matters are involved, the
material will be sanitized by the agency concerned and a check will
be made with the appropriate Third Agency organizations before
release. Where the reference concerns a Third Agency indirectly
or is not considered sensitive and does not pose policy concerns, the
agency concerned may forward the material to the requesting Select
mention-by-mention clearance
material has been forwarded will be made to the central index and

all agencies alerted through that mechanism. Agencies will
designate on their submissions to the central index, the name and

MEMORANDUM FOR: USIB Ad Hoc Group
SUBJECT:
Sanitization Guidelines for Documents
Provided Congressional Select
Committees
1. Attached is a copy of a statement, "Guidelines for
Sanitizing Certain Documents Provided Select Committees''
prepared by the Chairman, USIB Security Committee, for
consideration by the Ad Hoc Group. This step is a follow on to
the understanding the DCI has with Senator Church that sanitization
of selective documents will be undertaken before the documents'
are released to the Committee. Similar understandings have been
discussed with House Staff as well.
2. It is important that, to the extent possible, all intelligence
organizations follow generally the same sanitization guidelines.
Accordingly, the USIB. Ad Hoc Group should consider utilizing these
or similar guidelines within their respective organizations.
3. If requested by the Chairman, the DCI will discuss
orally with the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Senate and House
Select.Committees the content of the sensitive USIB or CIA material
excised from documents. Where appropriate, the DCI may discuss
this sensitive material with the entire Select Committee. He
considers it essential that the written record provided to the
Committee staff not include such sensitive information for the
protection of intelligence sources and methods.

GUIDELINES FOR SANITIZING CERTAIN DOCUMENTS
• PROVIDED SELECT COMMITTEES
1. The Director of Central Intelligence has recently discussed
with Senator Church the need for special consideration and treatment
by the Select Committee of certain sensitive aspects of intelligence
activities and the Senator has expressed his recognition of this need.
• Included in such matters are the identities of sensitive sources, the
material provided to the United States by cooperating foreign
intelligence
services, the details of technical devices and systems
and of operational methods, the identities of certain employees whose
safety could be jeopardized if revealed, the identities of American
citizens and organizations who have cooperated with US intelligence
and some additional materials the public disclosure of which would
create serious foreign policy or national security problems. Such
material should be protected not only from exposure but indeed the.
risk of exposure. Further, recognition should be given to the need
to protect certain other information which, if improperly disclosed,
might impair the privacy rights of individuals.

2. One form of this special consideration may include use
of sanitization procedures to avoid the risk of exposing such matters
and at the same time satisfy the Select Committee's need for a full
understanding of the community's activities.
3.
What May Be Sanitized
While it is not possible to anticipate all requirements which
may be levied by the Committees for documentin
g material and not
possible to determine specifically what material should be excised
from these documents, the following illustrations are offered in
certain likely categories. The criteria in all cases should meet
the test mentioned above.
4. Collection of Intelligence
(a) The Committee will probably address the matter of how.
intelligence activities or methods have or may impinge upon individual
rights. Documents supporting responses may be sanitized by removal
of identities of sensitive agents and informants, covert personnel,
and contractual cover arrangements. A descriptive phrase may be.
substituted, i.e., a foreign journalist, a political official in the
opposition party. No sanitization should be used in connection with
= Z
NW 55118: DocId: 32989628 Page 176
---
## Page 177
names of individuals whose employment or former employment by,
or association with a department or agency, does not remain secret
or for individuals whose present or future activities on behalf of the
department or agency do not require that previous cover arrangements
remain secret.
(b) Some information may be required with respect to
technical intelligence systems including cryptologic and communications
activities and reconnaissance capabilities. Almost all of such material
is currently handled in compartmentation control channels under
various codewords or nicknames. No security threat is perceived
by release of these codenames or nicknames in documents. Details
of the technical systems involved, contractual arrangements, funding
and/or names of companies or consultants whose participation was
obtained under agreement of continued secrecy may be excised from
documents. Any question on release of codeword material should be
referred to the Program Manager who in turn may consult with the
Director of Central Intelligence to ensure a consistent approach in
the community's sanitization procedure. While documentary samples
of intelligence obtained by technical means may be used in support of
verbal testimony, no raw product should be provided the Committees
= 3
NW 55118
DocId: 32989628
Page 177
---
## Page 178
' for retention. If absolutely required by the Committees, sanitization
of such raw product should be conducted to mask the degree of
technical capabilities.
•5. Intelligence Estimates
Finished intelligence reports of departments and agencies and
"estimates do not usually contain source identifications and will not
normally require sanitization. However, departments and agencies
' should review such publications to ensure deletion of source identities.
6. Administration
Information concerning the internal administration arrangements
of intelligence agencies may be requested. This may include staffing
chart with occupants identified. Sanitization of individual, Identities
of personnel formerly not under cover and now functioning-in a cover
assignment should be deleted as well as those who may in the future
be considered for a covert assignment.
7.
General
The following categories of information or specific examples
may arise in any number of circumstances in documentation requested
by the Select Committees. In all cases, serious consideration should
be given by the department or agency concerned to the necessity of
-4 -

•deletion or sanitization of this type of information, prior to
providing the document.
(a) Agent or informant names or operational information
revealing them.
(b) Details which would reveal the effectiveness of sensitive
methods and techniques (1) employed overseas in-human-source-
collection, (2) employed for the physical security protection of the
department's or agency's personnel or physical environment.
(c) The numbers, locations, times and other indications of
recruitment or emplacement of personnel within targetted foreign
organizations.
(d) The success or failure of recruitment attempts in any
given targetted foreign organization.
(e) Names of particular employees whose physical safety or
future career might be placed in jeopardy by exposure.
(f) Foreign or US sources, official or otherwise who agreed
to cooperate under terms of explicit or implied confidentiality, who
would be embarrassed or endangered by disclosure of their role.
(g) Identifying information on intelligence services in friendly
and neutral countries.

services against targets within the country extending the collaborations
or within a jointly targetted third country.
(i) Identifying collaboration with foreign governments in

if revealed, would be politically embarrassing in the countries
involved.
(j) Identification of technical intelligence operations of high
technical vulnerability and extremely high political sensitivity.
(k) Specific identification of foreign technical collection
installations involving high political sensitivity in the host country.
(1) Details or disclosure of monetary arrangements with
US and foreign banks, investment houses, etc., in support of foreign
intelligence operations.
(m) Specific information on special relationships with private
firms established with the approval of top corporate officials. This
includes names of firms or industrial associations that collaborate
in a special manner such as providing cover for foreign intelligence
operations.

(1) Names of firms collaborating with US intelligence
agencies in collection and assessment programs (especially

"8.
What Should Not Be Sanitized
There are general categories of intelligence activities which
have already been placed in the public domain by the mass news media
or authors with background experience in intelligence departments
or agencies of the community. Names, places, dates and events
which have been so revealed should not be excised if contained in
requested documents.
-There's anincreasing body of information which-has beer.
released under the Freedom of Information Act. No further sanitization
Lof this material should be conducted unless it relates to an individual's
rights to privacy.
9.
Techniques of Sanitization
Sanitization of intelligence material is usually considered the
act of physical removal of the identity of a person, place or thing
from written communication with or without regard for the residual
7
NW 55118 Docid: 32989628°
Page
181
---
## Page 182
content:
Use of a substitution device, either pseudonym or ident
is an example of sanitization which permits intelligent continuity
of the material without revealing the true identity. Sanitization
does not extend to the use of false or misleading substitute material
in this context.
The integrity of official records must be maintained.. The
following sanitization techniques apply only to copies of records.
(a) Physical Sanitization - Names may be cut out and
the residual material xeroxed and submitted to Committees. Names
may be masked with correction tape and then xeroxed. The xerox
copy may be submitted to the Committees.
(b) Names may be deleted and replaced with "IDEN, "
The delted materialis pravided an a separate IDEN list which
contains names or descriptive phrases substituted for deletions.
(c) The material can be retyped or reprinted with
substitute phrases or substitute descriptions which do not reveal
the sensitive material.
(d) Entire pages can be removed from some documents
and replaced with a blank page carrying only reference information

## Page 183
as to the location of the sensitive material within the contributing
department or agency. This technique may be employed when
physical sanitization or excision of material results in unintelligible
gibberish as residue..
(e) Within a category of inquiry, it may be desirable to
extract a complete document from requested material when the
request is broad and all inclusive within its field. The existence
of such a document should be made known to the Committees but
retained by the agency or department for: review under escort
of a representative of the department or agency.
:10. Management of Sanitization
The original record and a copy of the sanitized version provided
-should-be.readilyavailable.inall-cases-Materials-developedwithin.an
agency or department in response to requests should be reviewed at an
appropriate level for completeness, responsiveness and accuracy. In
the case of documents or materials of a community nature, the release
should be done in coordination with the departments or agencies and/or
the Program Manager concerned and any sanitization should be agreed
upon during coordination.

-..
This proposed use of sanitization as a special arrangement.
to protect selected issues contained in material provided to Select
Committees by one agency may prove to be a futile exercise if not
practiced in common by all participating departments and agencies.
It is essential to the proposal that departments and agencies attempt
to employ the same criteria for sanitization and coordinate as
required.. This paper can serve only as general guidelines on
sanitization.

SENSTUDY 75
By memorandum dated 3-20-75, you were advised of a
request received from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities.
The Intelligence Division requested that an attempt be made to modify portions
of the Committee's request.
Telephone Rm. -
Director Sec'y -
Regarding Part I titled Legal Authorities, the Intelligence Division
pointed out that this particular request was wide-ranging and required a considerable
file review as it requested any memorandum discussing the legal authority of
the FBI to (1) investigate internal security matters, (2) collect intelligence
information, and (3) engage in counter-intelligence activities; together with
copies of all constitutional and statutory provisions, executive orders, presidential
directives, Attorney General opinions and memoranda, and any other materials
asserted as sources of such authority." With regard to Part III concerning the
FBI's administrative organization, they requested the identities by name of personnel
in the Intelligence Division, Unit Chief and above. This caused concern in the
Intelligence Division that there would be a needless proliferation of a list of
Bureau personnel working in this field which list, of course, would be of interest
to foreign intelligence sources.
On 4-1-75 Inspector John B. Hotis and SA Paul V. Daly discussed
these matters with William Miller, Staff Director of the Senate Select Committee;
John T. Elliff, who has been nominated to head the task force for the Committee
looking into FBI activities; F. A. O. Schwarz, Counsel to the Senate Select
Committee; and staff member Michael Epstein. They agreed to modify the request
in Part IlI to the extent that personnel in the Intelligence Division need not be.
identified by name below the level of Assistant Director in the organization chart
to be furnished them pursuant to their request of 3-19-75.
They asked as an
alternative the Bureau prepare a list ot personnel in the Intelligence Division down
to the level of Unit Chief with names included which they would have access to
Ireview in Bureau space.

Legal Counsel to Adams Memo
RE: SENSTUDY 75
With regard to Part I relating to legal authorities, they stated
they were amenable to the Bureau furnishing them whatever documents they
have retrieved up to this time which have been recovered pursuant to their
request of 3-19-75 and that no additional detailed review need be conducted
until they review the aforementioned documents. At the end of their review
they will make any additional specific requests concerning this part of their
request. They also asked that in our response we furnish them copies of documents
listed on a three-page paper prepared by the staff of the Senate Select Committee,
a copy of which is attached.
Staff Director Miller requested that the Bureau expedite their
response to the Senate Select Committee's request as the first meeting of that
Committee is scheduled for WednesdaY 4-9-75,and he felt strongly that they
must have material that showed progress in their study of the FBI prior to that
time. Mr. Miller requested that, if necessary, the request be responded to in
a piecemeal basis and that the complete response does not necessarily have to
be made at one time.
It is suggested that we make available to this Committee as soon
as possible those documents which we have furnished the General Accounting
Office (GAO) which also fall within the 3-19-75 request of the Senate Select
Committee. In this regard staff members have advised they are in contact with
GAO auditors concerning the FBI.
By way of observations it is obvious that the staff members of
the Committee are well versed in Bureau policy and procedures. To this point
they have been cooperative and we should insure that we give a timely response
to their various requests.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
(1) That the Intelligence Division advise whether modification
of the Senate Select Committee's request concerning legal authorities for
investigations and the modification of the table of organization of the Intelligence
Division are acceptable and, if so, expeditiously prepare the necessary response
to the Senate Select Committee.

Director Sec'y —
The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend that all
responses for the production of records, etc., received from Congressional
committees be forwarded by letterhead memorandum through the Deputy
Attorney General to the requesting committee, and also that in selected instances
a property stamp or statement be affixed to certain documents limiting access
With the proliferation of committees in Congress looking into
FBI operations, it is essential that a standard procedure for the forwarding o
documents to the requesting committees be established. Inasmuch as requests
such as the request of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities
have been forwarded to this Bureau through the Department, it would appear
logical that responses to such inquiries and all other inquiries of Congressional !
committees, whether they be directed to the Department and/or the Bureau,
be responded to through the Department. Such a procedure not only will make
all our responses consistent but will also give the Department an opportunity
(review and approve documents being made available to Congress.
In connection with our preparation of responses to requests df
Congressional committees, it is suggested that all responses should be by
letterhead memorandum, the first paragraph of which should clearly describe
the specific request which is being responded to in the letterhead memorandura,
REC:18 62-116.395-
In those instances
ére documents are of a nature that weare:
not desirous of unauthorized personnel, whether they be in Congress or otherwise,
having access to, we should affix a property stamp.
'This property"stampshould.
read as follows:

"This document is prepared in response to your request and
is not for dissemination outside of your Committee. Its use
is limited to official proceedings by your Committee and the
contents may not be disclosed to unauthorized personnel .without

APPENDIX A
PERIOD OF MARTIAL LAW
I. It is further agreed that when a state of martial law has
been declared by the President, the armed forces
commander will
assume responsibilities.for coverage in these
categories. His
authority to direct
and control the subscribing agencies of the
armed forces will be limited only by such instructions as he
may receive from the Secretary of Defense. He will have authority
to coordinate the intelligence activities of the subscribing
agencies in his area of
responsibility, within the limits of
their available personnel and facilities, by the assignment of
missions, the designation of objectives, and the exercise of
such coordinating control as he deems necessary.
authorized to control the administration or discipline of the
subscribing agencies in the area of his responsibility, nor to
issue instructions to them beyond those necessary for the purposes
stated shove.
Personnel of the subscribing agencies in the area of responsi-
bility of the armed forces commander will still send reports to
and be under the continued supervision of their respective head
quarters.
They will render such aid and assistance to the armed
forces commander and his designated representatives as are
possible and practicable:
They will furnish all pertinent informa-
tion, data, and other material that are or may de necessary or
desirable to the armed
forces commander by the most expeditious
means and
methods possible consistent with requisite security.

APPENDIX
B
PERIODS OF PREDOMINANT MILITARY
NTERESIS, NOT INVOLVING MARTIAL LAW
I.
In time of war certain areas will come into prominence as
potential theaters of operation. When an armed forces commander
of such a potential theater is designated, he definitely has
interest in, though not control of, the civilian life within the
area.
In order that the armed. forces commander may prepare him-
self for the discharge of the possible responsibility which may
affix to him, the following procedure is agreed upon:
1. Agents of the FBI; of ONI; ID, Army; and the OSI, IG,
U.S. Air Force will continue to function in accordance with the
provisions of Sections II, III, IV, and V.
In addition therero, the armed forces commander may take
steps to analyze the facilities existing and to explore the
manner in which complete coverage will be obtained if martial law
is declared.
Adequate Liaison with the other subscribing agencies
will insure
that the armed forces commander will have the benetit
of the experience, judgment and knowledge of the representatives
of the other agencies.
3. The armed forces commander is authorized to request and
receive such information from the other three agencies as he may
desire and they may be able to furnish.
II. The analysis and exploration referred to above will show the
coverage furnished by each of the subscribing agencies and any
additional coverage each subscribing agency can undertake.
When
the commander feels that more complete coverage is required, it
is recognized that he is authorized to augment the coverage with
such elements of the subscribing agencies as are under his
jurisdiction.
Prior to any invasion of the spheres nörmally
coming under
the coonizance of the other subscribing agencies
the armed forces commander should obtain the necessary authority
from the Secretary of Defense.
III. Irrespective of the fact that the preceding recommendations
have placed the initiative in the hands of the armed forces
commander, Whenever any of the other services feel that such
a survey to determine adequacy of coverage should be undertaken,
it should be so recommended.

The Director of' Intelligence, U.S. Army, the Director

gations, inspeczor General. U.s. Air Force, with a view to
promoting the closest possible cooperation and coordination
between the Field Services of these agencies agree that the
following recommendations will be transmitted to their field
installations:
(a) Special Agents in Chargé of the Federal Bureau of
• Investigation Divisional Offices, Military Intelligence VIIICers
of the pertznent Armies, District Officers of the office of
Special Investigations, Inspector General, U.S. Air Force, and
Naval District Intelligence Officars will meintain close personal
liaison between those offices and their representatives, including
a meeting of representatives of the four agencies, preferably the
officers in charge, at least twice per month, for
the purpose of
discussing pending
and contempiated investigative activities, and
any other subject necessary to insure that there is proper co-
ordination of their investigative work.
(b) The close personal liaison to be maintained
between representatives of the four agencies at all times should
insure that there is not duplication of effort in any field, and
that a proper coverage of the whole investigative field is main-
tained.
Particular attention should be paid to avoiding any
duplication in connection with the use of informers.
(c) A distinction should be recognized between the
Investigative
interest of irdividual agencies and the coverage
interest.
It is believed that all four agencies should study,
from time to time, the coverage of the investigative field in
order to insure that all channels of interest and avenues of
information are adequately covered by at least one of the partici-
pating agencies.
(d) Where there is doubt as to whether or not one of the
other agencies is interested in information collected, it should
be transmitted to the other agency.

INVESTIGATIVE GUIDELINES
TITLE XI, ORGANIZED CRIME CONTROL ACT OF 1970
REGULATION OF EXPLOSIVES
1. General
Title XI of the captioned law amends Title 18, United
States Code, by adding a new chapter 40 with section numbers 841
through 848 governing the importation, manufacture, distribution
and storage of explosive materials and creating certain Federal
ortenses pertaining to the unlawful use of explosives. ' Administration
of explosives regulation is vested in the Secretary of the Treasury
as is invescinative jurisaiccion over the unlawful acts proscribed
in section 842.
Under authority contained in section 846 the
rederal bureau of Investigacion (rBl) and the Bureau of Alcohol:
Tobacco and Firearms (Alf) have concurrent investigative jurisdic-
cion as to the remainder of chapter 40, 1.e., the unlawful acts
proscribed in subsections (d), (e), (f): (g), (h) and (1) of seccion
844.
Although not specified in chapter 40, the Postal Inspection
•Servico shall have jurisdiction iù investiyaie ail ircidenis
involving explosive or incendiary devices sent through the mails
or directed against U.S. Postal Service property.
Title XI greatly broaders Federal- auchority pertaining to
explosives-connected offenses.
At the same time, Congress has
expressly disclaimed any intent to occupy the field to the exclusion
of state law on the same subject matter.
To effect both Congressional
purposes and to prevent unnecessary duplication of effort it is
essential that the limited Federal investigative resources be carefully
allocated, particularly in cases in which both the ATF and the FBI
have jurisdiction.
2. Federal bureau of Investigation (FBI Jurisdiction in General
(a) Effect on prior jurisdiction - This agreement applies
only to those incidents as to which the FBI had no investigative
jurisdiction prior to the enactment of the captioned Taw and to
incidents previously subject to FBI invastigation by reason of chapter
65, Title 18, United States Code (malicious mischief). Investigative
procedures in other types of incidents (e.g., train wrecking, damaging
aircraft and motor vehicles, racketeering) shall remain unchanged.

explosive (as distinguished from incendiary) materials against the
facilities of a college or university.

4.: Postal Inspection Service Jurisdiction
The Postal Inspection Service shall have primary juris-
diction to investigate all violations of section 844 which are
directed at U.S. Postal Service property or functions:
5. Special Considerations
(a) Bomb Threats, false information (section 894(e)) -
The ATF and the Postal Inspection Service shall have jurisdiction
over violations of section 844(e) against Treasury Department or
Postal Service property or functions, respectively.
The FBI shall
have jurisdiction over all other violations of section 844(e). Upon
receipt of information alleging or suggesting a violation of subsection
844(e), the investigative agency concerned will review available
information to determine whether the identity of the offender is
known or can be readily ascertained and, if not, whether the evidence
suggests a partern or pian of such offenses by à parcicular offerier
or against a particular victim.
If such a patter appears or if the
offender is identified, all available information will be disseminated
as indicated in paragraph 6 below.
(b) Use/carrying explosive in conmission of a felony.
(section 844(h)) - Violations of 844(h) should be handled as an
adjunct of the felony from which they arise and should be discussed
with the appropriate United States Attorney or Division of the
Depariment handling prosecution of the underlying felony offense.
The agency having jurisdiction over the underlying felony will have
investigative jurisdiction over the 844(h) violation (e.g., bank
robbery is under FBI jurisdiction).
(c) Violations of 26 U.S.C. 5861 (destructive devices) -
In incidents involving alleged violations of 18 U.S.C. 844 (which
may also involve a violation of 26 U.S.C. 5861), ATF shall not
exercise its primary jurisdiction under 26 U.S.C. 5861 involving
destructive devices, but the incident shall be treated in accordance.
with the provisions of these guidelines.
This is in no way a
relinguishment oy ATF of its investigative jurisdiction under Title
Il of the Gun Control Act of 1968.

5. Development of Background Information
Some incidents such as those directed against Federal
property or functions (paragraph 2(b) above) require immediate full
federal investigation.
Others require a more circumspect approach
and will result in full Federal irvestigation only after considera-
tion of factors pertinent to the exercise of Federal jurisdiction.
Accordingly, in those incidents which these guidelines do not prescribe
immediate full investigation, the investigative agency having juris-
diccion will develop background information which includes (a) facts
bearing on motivation such as involvement of the suspected perpatrators
in terrorist/revolutionary activities, organized crime, labor-management
disputes, or racial-religious hate activities; (b) the applicability
of state
and local laws and likelihood of state or local investigative
and prosecutive actions; and (c) any other available facts indicating
whether or not the offense warrants Federal investigation and prosecu
tion.
Such background information will be submitted telephonically
(202~739-2745) or by teletype (710-822-0008) to the General Crimes
Section ne the criminal Division and to the appropriate
United States
Actorney. The Criminal Division will advise the investigative agency
concerned whether the matter warrants submission to any other
Division or Section of the Criminal Division, and when so warranted
the Criminal Division will transmit the information to such other
Division er Section.
% Full Investigation
A full investigation will be initiated immediately in
those instances wherein such investigation is specified herein.
other inscances full investigation will be initiated only upon direc-
tion of the Department of Justice after consideration by the Division
having cognizance over the matter of the background information
developed under paragraph 6 above.
8. Reports
Copies of case reports prepared in matters investigated under
these guidelines will be furnishad directly to the Department of Justice
and the appropriate United States Attorney. All investigative agencies
NW 55118

shall submit initial reports as soon as practicable to the Department
of Justice and shall submit progress reports once each 30 days or
as soon thereafter as possible.
The Criminal Division of the
Department of Justice will be informed as soon as possible in each
instance wherein an investigative agency initiates an investigation
under section 844. Such notification is of critical importance to
the avoidance of duplication of investigative activities. Also
agency subscribing to these guidelines shall, upon instituting invas-
tigation regarding possible violations of section 844, immediately
notify other subscribing agencies having a logical interest therein.
Also, a sufficient level of follow-up liaison and dissemination shall
be maintained to avoid duplication of investigative effort.
Additionally, each such agency will exchange information
on a
timely basis and in a manner which will not interfere with
ongoing investigations relative to types, scurces, movement, and
storage of explosives which are the subject of its investigations.
Information regarding significant developments in investigations
being conducted under these guidelines and information of an intelli-
gence nature developed incidontal to investigatione mich is or logical
interest to the Department of Justice shall be furnished promptly to
the Criminal Division of that Department which will be responsible
for any necessary further dissemination within that Department.
9. Review of Guidelines .
These guidelines shall be reviewed on a continuing basis by
the parties hereto to determine whether problems exist in their admin-
istration which should be alleviated or whether modification of any of
the terms of the agreement are needed in the interests of better law
enforcement.

The statement in the attached of the Third Agency
rule is accurate and does not present legal problems.
As an observation paragraph number 7 of the
document titled "Handling of Third Agency Matters in Response to
Congressional Select Committee" dated March 28, 1975, (attached)
appears to be subject to various interpretations. This paragraph and
in particular the second sentence of the paragraph appears to allow the
agency receiving the Committee's request to respond in instances where
a Third Agency is indirectly involved and the material is sensitive with-*
out first contacting the Third Agency. Any notification of the Third
Agency in this instance of the furnishing of such information to the
Committee would be after the fact. The term indirectly is not defined.
Additionally, this paragraph allows the Agency receiving the Committee's
request to respond in instances where a Third Agency is directly involved
and the material is nonsensitive without checking with the Third Agency
involved. It would appear the language in paragraph number 7 should
be tightened up and the appropriate terms defined.

The Third Agency Rule
24202
IIV
I. As early as November 1953, the third agency rule was
included in Executive Order 10501, which has now been revoked.
Section 7(c) prohibited the dissemination of "classified defense
information originating in another Department or agency" to an
agency "outside the receiving Department or agency without the :
consent of the originating Department or agency". The only excep-
tion to this rule is that dissemination may be made under the authority
of Section 102 of the National Security Act. This section authörizes .
the Director of Central Intelligence "to correlate and evaluate intelli-
gence relating to the national security, and provide for the appropriate
dissemination of such intelligence within the Government using, where
appropriate, existing agencies and facilities".
2. Historically, the responsibility of the DCI to disseminate
intelligence has referred to "finished intelligence". This product is
the end result of contributions from members of the Intelligence Commu-
nity. Therefore, in this situation the finished product is ay homogenous
product and therefore the approval for further dissemination beyond the
receiving agency must come from the Central Intelligence Agency.
3.
Executive Order 10501 was superseded by Executiva Ürder
11652 which became effective 1 June 1972. This Executive order did not
specifically .cover the third agency rule. However, it does provide the
following controls: Sec.. 9. Special Departmental Arrangements. The
originating Department or other appropriate authority may impose, in
conformity with the provisions of this order, special requirements with
respect to access, distribution and protection of classified information
and material, including those which presently relate to communications
intelligence, intelligence sources and methods and cryptography.
4. In anticipation of the implementation of Executive Order
11652, a directive was issued on May 17, 1972 entitled "National Security
Council Directive Governing the Classification, Downgrading, Declassi-
fication and Safeguarding of National Security Information". This
-directive does not contain the term "third agency rule" but does have
four subsections which relate to procedures which are similar to whai
historically had been called the third agency rule. These sections are:
NW 55118 DocId: 32989628

A. (2) Determination of Need-to-Know. In addition tia
security clearance, a person must have a need for access

tractual obligations. The dete:
nation of that need
shall be made by officials having responsibility for the
classified information or material.
D. Consent of Originating Department to Dissemination
by Recipient. Except as otherwise provided by Section
102 of the National Security Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 495, 50
U.S.C. 403, classified information or material originating
in one Department shall not be disseminated outside any
other Department to which it has been made available
without the consent of the originating Department.
Dissemination of Sensitive Intelligence Information.
Information or material bearing the notation "WARNING
NOTICE - SENSITIVE INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND
METHODS INVOLVED" shall not be disseminated in any
manner outside authorized channels without the permission
of the originating Department and an assessment by the
senior intelligence official in the disseminating Department
as to the potential risk to the national security and to the
intelligence sources and methods involved.
F. Restraint on Special Access Requirements. The
establishment of special rules limiting access to, distri
bution and protection of classified införmation and material
under Section 9 of the Order requires the specific prior
annental of tha head of a Depertment ou his docignes.
5. Examples of the application of the Third Agency Rule are:
(a) In a national security estimate, contributions are
received from all members of the Intelligence Community and.
then disseminated to members of the community under the
authority of the DCI;
(b) A CIA intelligence report disseminated to the State
Department may not be sent by the State Department to
the Department of Commerce without the permission of the
CIA;
(c) Information which the CIA furnishes the President's
Commission may not be disseminated to other agencies or
to the Congress without the concurrences of CIA. Thus,
a request from the Congress to the Commission for CIA
information should be referred to CIA for action so that
the necessary protection of the information can be insured.

If the Navy Department discus:
es one of its operations
with CIA, CIA may not include information about that operation
in papers it disseminates to other agencies unless it has
received the permission of the Navy Department. The distinc-
tion here is that a Navy operation would not be considered part
of the finished intelligence mechanism and therefore would
not fall within the statutory authority of CIA to disseminate
intelligence.

At a meeting of the Ad Hoc Coordinating Group on
Congressional Review of the Intelligence Community 2/27/75, a
draft paper entitled, "Ambiguities and the Law," was distributed
to all members.
This paper was drafted by Mr. Marvin Smith of
CIA.
It is considered a starting point for the Intelligence
Community to identify areas in existing statutes that should be
changed, as well as to recommend new legislation deemed necessary
to clarify for
ties,
the limitations and missions of various member agencies
an or that con an on
the Congress and the American people the authori-
or departments of the Intelligence Community.
In furnishing copies of this paper to members, the
Chairman of the Ad Hoc Group, Mr. John Clarke, acknowledged the
paper presents a starting point and in no way should be considered
a final draft. He suggested that Legal Counsel representatives
of each agency or department of USIB review the document and
submit their comments directly to Mr. Marvin Smith, on Agency
code 143, extension 4055.
Following the receipt of such comments
from the
legal offices of member' agencies and departments, it
was proposed that a meeting would be called in an
effort to
begin drafting a paper representative of the Intelligence Community
which would reflect recommended changes in existing statutes or
proposals for new
legislation.

AMBIGUITIES AND THE LAW
CIA, NSA, DIA, FBI and, to some extent, several other."*
Federal Agencies, collect information and produce intelligence, but
of different kinds and for different purposes. This is recognized in
practice but is not as clearly established in the law. Given some
lack of clarity in the law and some uncertainty regarding limits
placed on intelligence activities, misunderstanding and fear of abuse
of power easily thrives. In reality, however, in the implementation
of mission and charters and in direction and control, there are not
as many unresolved ambiguities as the uninformed may suppose:
The experience following the National Security Act of 1947 is
such that it is now possible to eliminate some of the vagueness of
the language of the Act. The certainty and public confidence that
should result from clarifications in the law should far outweigh any
disadvantages. A number of possible amendments or additions to
current laws have already been mentioned, and proposed legislation
has already been submitted for some. These ideas and others are
suggested, below.

foreign intelligence.
3) Remove uncertainty regarding responsibility for
internal security matters by modifying appropriate laws to
establish clearly:
--that the collection of counterintelligence
information in the United States and the
collection of information related to internal
security are functions of the FBI;
NW 55118 DocId:32989628 Page 252
---
## Page 253
- 5-
--that the responsibility for the
production of intelligence related to
internal security rests with the FBI; and
--that with due regard to assessed
reliability of the information and
responsibilities for protecting sources
and methods, those agencies engaged in
foreign intelligence activities will make
available to the FBI and other Federal
agencies,
as appropriate, the security
and counterintelligence information relating
to foreign nationals in the United States and
to U.S, citizens which is derived as a by-
product of foreign intelligence activities.
4) Recognize international terrorism and international
illegal drug activities as threats to U.S. national security
and proper targets for U.S. foreign intelligence efforts,
as well as for internal security operations.
NW 55118 DocId: 32989628 Page 253

5) Provide protection against the unauthorized
disclosure of intelligence
sources and methods by:
--providing for the protection of intelligence
sources
and methods on a statutory basis
independent of Executive Order 11652;
--clarifying that the Director of Central
Intelligence is responsible for protecting
intelligence sources and methods related
to foreign intelligence and foreign
counterintelligence;
--assigning to the Director of the Fedezal
Bureau of Investigation the duty of protecting
intelligence sources and methods related to
internal security and to counterintelligence
within the United States;
'--imposing specific burdens, upon officers
and employees of all branches of the govern-
ment and others granted official access, not
to disclose such information without authorization,
NW 55118
DocId: 32989628
Page 254

## Page 255

and providing criminal sanctions for unauthorized
. "i
disclosures;
--establishing effective injunctive recourse,
through the Attorney General, for protection
of all intelligence sources and methods;
--providing for in camera judicial review
of material revealing intelligence sources
and methods when relevant and necessary
to criminal and civil proceedings;
--delineating authorities and responsibilities.
for investigating suspected or discovered
unauthorized disclosures by (a) U.S. citizens
overseas and (b) all persons within the
United States.
6) Delineate areas
of interagency
assistance that
facilitate performance of authorized missions, promote
• economy of resources, and as a matter of policy are
desirable, for example:
NW 55118
DocId: 32989628 Page 255
---
## Page 256
-8-
--cooperation in research and development
of technical collection and information pro-
cessing equipment, methods and techniques;
- loan or supply of equipment, methods and
techniques;
--provision of training in special skills and
techniques;
--passage of information derived as a by-
product of foreign intelligence activities to
those agencies responsible for the matters
involved.
A few changes in the procedures for reviewing intelligence
activities might add considerable understanding and confidence. Of
paramount importance is a form of congressional oversight that permits
the provision to Congress of the necessary information in a timely,
efficient and controlled manner. It is recognized that a number of
Committees in both the Senate and House must be informed of sub-
stantive intelligence, operational matters and fiscal details in varying
degrees.
Just as in the executive branch, the test of access should be
NW 55118 DocId: 32989628 Page 256
---
## Page 257
-9-
"need-to-know." To apply this test and to control and protect
sensitive information provided to Congress, a focal point within...
Congress would be extremely helpful. Whether a joint committee
or not,
such a focal point would also be valuable in facilitating
changes in laws affecting intelligence activities. Congress might
find that a more uniform approach to budget presentation and review
would provide better insight and understanding-
The foregoing suggestions are by no means definitive.
They
do, however, present areas that in the experience of the intelligence
community deserve careful attention.

Project Senstudy 75, established within
Intelligence Division, for the purpose of developing a
capability of implementing requests received from the
Select Committees of the Congress. Bureau file 62-1163950pFVU
has been opened
"for this Project.
Because of the unusual factors relating to this
entire Project, such as the sensitive nature of much of the
material involved,
urgency for handling, necessity for having
the file very readily available to the working staff at all
times, and similar
other reasons, it is essential that the
file be maintained in the work area of the Project which,
effective 4/14/75, will be in room 4063, JEH,
The purpose of
this memorandum,
therefore, is to have Files
and Communications
Division take necessary steps to arrange for the maintenance
of the file in the designated room rather than in the usual
manner
There has already been much publicity about the
Select Committees and we anticipate much more. This involves
many newspaper stories.
It is,
therefore,
believed very
desirable that a Sub A
file to
the main file be opened as
the standardized repository for newspaper articles, As a

before this Committee respond in the same commendable and expedi-
dous manner that they responded in connection with the preparation

5 - Do not number pages;
6 - Each Division will
be responsible for the accuracy
and completeness of the information furnished in final form.
This
will also include up-dating any ipformation previous Eurnished:
1 - Use "Mag" card trewriter courier bathyidentitying
caption on the card folder should be adequate to readily identify
it with the corresponding paper. In addition to the caption ad
folder should also have the name of the originating Division.

dated 3/12/75, the Legal Counsel Division indicated that its

responsibilities within the Bureau for the collection and
preparation of material for tue Senate Select Committee.
This memorandum instructed Intelligence Division
to accumulate data which was identified in a memorandum from
Mr. John M. Clarke from the Ad Hoc Coordinating Group of the
Intelligence Committee. Clarkets memorandum was attached to
W. O. Cregar to W. R. Wannall memorandum dated 3/6/75.
• The identified data to be collected outlined in Clarke's memorandum
was proposed-type data that the Senate Select Committee has
- indicated an interest in.
In view of 3/19/75 letter subsequently received from
Senator Frank Church (Democrat, Idauo), Chairman of the Senate
Select Committee, to the Attorney General outlining a request for
specific FBI documents they are interested in receiving, the
Intelligence Division has begun accumulating this specific data.
In view of this request for specitic data, the Intelligence Division
will not accumulate the data outlined in the Clarke memorandum
since it was only in the nature of proposed data and ditfers from
the specific data to be collected which is extensive in nature.

THE FRAUDULENI USE OF DECEASED INFANT IDENTITY PAPERS HAS

and Bureau Source 4 (access to social security records).
Many of
these matters discussed covered topics with which Mr. Wilderotter
had become familiar when he was assigned to the Department as an
Assistant to former Deputy Attorney General Silberman.
Wilderotter said it was the feeling at The White House
I that while raw fBI files should not be made available to the
Committee, it might be necessary to permit the Committee to review
a few such
files in order that the integrity of the FBI could be
established with the Committee.
It was pointed out to him that

said that this was a matter which he would afford further

might be considered questionable.

On 3-18-75 Professor John T. Elliff advised Inspector John B.
Hotis that he had been contacted by William Miller, Staif Director for the
Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities, and was asked to serve
as Director or the Committee's Task Force on Domestic Intelligence. This
is one of four Task Forces being formed by the Select Committee and it
will focus primarily on the activities of the FBI. The other Task Forces
are on Foreign Intelligence, Military and Technological Intelligence, and
Command and Control.
Elliff said he had not decided whether to accept the offer
and believed that others were also being considered for the position. He
162-
said he was reluctant to do anything that would interfere with the excellent
working amagements he had developed with the Bureau. He feels that his
initial obligation is ic the Director, and the purpose of going to the Police
Foundation was io get formal support for a project that would be of primary
benefit to the Bureau and only secondarily to the Attorney General and Congressta
He said he would be guided by our judgment in this matter and not want io
break any commitments that he might have made with the Bureau.
It he accepts the appointment Ellitt said he would, of course,
suspend work on his research project until he had terminated his employment
with the Committee. He said he would also agree not to use any classified
material that he acquired in his capacity as Task Force Director. Ellist
has discussed this matter with John Heaphy, Assistant Director of the Police
Foundation. Heaphy said the Foundation had no objections whatsoever for
his accepting the position with the Senate Select Committee, and he would
be tree to resume his projec arier the Committee work was gone suf

Legal Counsel to Adams Memo
RE: JOHN T. ELLIFF
It should be noted that the Select Committee considered
offering the position to LarryBaskir, Counsel to the President's _Clemency
Board. Mr. Baskir formerly served as Chief Counsel to Senator Ervin's
Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights, and we had numerous contacts
with him in that capacity. Our purpose was to reach some common agreement
on privacy legislation that Senator Ervin planned to introduce in the 93rd
Session of Congress. There were numerous meetings with Baskir on the
same subject in the Deputy Attorney General's oftice. These eiforts proved
unsuccessful and after several months we discontinued the discussions.
In our opinion, Mr. Baskir was unwilling to work out any reasonable
compromise and seemed unsympathetic to the legiSlation concerns of law
enforcement.
It is clear that this is a matter for Professor Elliff to
determine and the Bureau should not express an official opinion. Although
we have not always agreed with his views on intelligence matters, we
have had no occasion to question his objectivity or his integrity as a scholar.
Mr. Miller knows that Professor Elliff enjoys our confidence and it is
our understanding that he offered Elliff the position in order to avoid an
adversary relationship between the Bureau and the Committee.
Professor Elliff said he would make no commitments to
the Senate Committee until he hears from us.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Professor Elliff be advised that it would be inappropriate
for us to express an opinion on whether he should accept the appointment
offered by the Senate Select Committee.

The following items of interest were discussed:
Mx. William G. Miller, Staff Director of the Senate
Select Committee (SSC),
and the Committee's Counsel, Mr. F.A.O.
Schwarz, III, visited CIA Headquarters to discuss SSC business.
Mr. Miller suggested that a tactic the SSC was considering is
the identification of several key issues that the Committee
For example, the SSC might propose
to identify two or three covert actions engaged in by CIA and
examine them in-depth rather than try to cover each and every
covert action CIA might identify. Colby advised that this
appeared to be an encouraging development and possibly each
agency of the Intelligence Community might be asked to provide
a series of key issues from which the Select Committee could

Memorandum for Mr. Wannall
RE: SENSTUDY 75
Both Miller and Schwarz accepted the Third Agency
Rule and agreed to abide by it. For the record, the SSC's
interpretation of the Third Agency Rule (which is consistent
with the Intelligence Community) is as follows: Classified
information or material originating in one department shall
not be disseminated outside any other department to which it
has been made available without the consent of the originating
department.
The Security Committee of the United States Intelli-
gence Board (USIB) will meet to develop some ground rules and
standardization for sanitizing documents to be furnished to
the Select Committees.
The question of Intelligence Community personnel being
represented by counsel was discussed. The position of the White
House on this issue has been fully reported in a memorandum from
the Legal Counsel to Mr. Adams, dated 3/27/75, entitled "Senate
Select Committee on Intelligence Activities, Rodney Hills
Associate Counsel to the President."
It was also agreed at the meeting of 3/25/75 that the
President's Counsel would attempt to negotiate with the SSC to
insure that all interviews of Intelligence Community personnel
would be conducted on the premises of the bureau, agency or
department employing the persons to be interviewed.
Attached also for the record are the following:
A letter dated 3/20/75 from Staff Director William G.
Miller to Mr. John Clarke advising that Mr. Ben Marshall has been
designated as the Security Officer of the SSC;
A letter dated 3/17/75 from Mr. Miller to Mr. Clarke
listing employees of the SSC who have been cleared by the
Committee for certification by CIA for access to classified
information up to and including "Top Secret";
A letter from Mr. Miller to Mr. Clarke dated 3/20/75
advising that Mr. Ben Marshall was cleared for access to
classified information up to and including "Top Secret";

was in a position to begin receiving classified documents.
He advised
that arrangements had been perfected and that effective 20 March 1975

advise the guard there that material is being delivered and
have him call Mr. Marshall or Charity Benz, both of whom
are authorized to receive classified documents up to and

in his office be telephonically advised (224-1700) of the impending
delivery and the estimated time of arrival so that he or someone from
his office can be available. He also stated that if delivery was desired
to a specific staff member, Mr. Marshall would try and have such

Enclosed is the corrected transcript of my interview
of dangary 10, 1988.1 am sorry 1 was not able to full in
all the several blanks. If I could hear the tape, I might
be able to decipher it My compliments to the transcriber
for getting as much as is there.
I did not realize I was being so earthy, for which
I apologize,
nor that I was talking in incomplete sentences.
Intext would
never pass muster as even a draft of a term paper
in class, but it 1s what I said. I hope it is still helpful®
If you haven't already received a copy, I suggest you
together on the Bootson cop of some ten magent pet
of Bill Buckley's Mongoose,
R.I.Po
They are more complete than my comments on that subject in
my interview abd should be appended to it.
I enjoyed doing the interview and am available to do
more
on subjects thought to be useful.

Interview with Samuel Halpern
15 January 1988
Alexandria, Virginia
by Mary S. McAuliffe
MSM: We'll go back to the beginning of MONGOOSE, we're talking 1961
the last part of 1961 through '63 to some extent.
/ A
^
SH: MONGOOSE actually finished at the end of the Missile Crisis in
1962 and lasted exactly one year. From October '61 to January
'62 I was Deputy Chief of what was then called "Branch 4" of
the Western Hemisphere Division. Branch 4 consisted of Cuba
and all the Caribbean Islands. When we started into MONGOOSE,
by the
time January came around it was quite clear that that
couldn't exist any longer in that particular organizational
eputy
bureaucratic setup, and Dick Helms, who was then the
D/DDP, I
guess it was, or chief of offering guess, decided to take
cuba, at least, out of WH4
and set it up as a
separate branch
then
within WH, still under the Division Chief,
Col. J. C.
King. In January of '62, because things were getting hot and
heavy with the Kennedys on our tail, and I kept screaming--oh,
by the way, the man who was the Branch Chief was Ghosn Zogby
(Of Lebanese extraction), who was a long time Agency employee
(he's now
dead, unfortunately)-he was Branch Chief, I was his
Deputy,
Di so-called Branch 4. When Cuba was taken out and
made a
separate branch under J. C. King, 2og (nickname)
Cuba
continued
as Branch Chief, and I continued as his Deputy until
I was screaming loud and long to Dick Helms that this is
crazy..
MONGOOSE, because it was called MONGOOSE as of
196/

called MONGOOSE as of October 1961--and I'm the guy who came
up with the name--I'll give you that background later--which,
by the way was never used in the Agency. It was never an
Agency crypt. It was an Agency-supplied cryptonym, but we.
never used it.
MSM:
What did you use in the Agency? Was that where "Caribbean
Survey Group" came in?
SH: No. That was a bunch of nonsense. The Caribbean Survey Group
was something totally different. I'll get into that later.
Anyway, I kept screaming to Helms that the likes of a Zogby
and a Halpern are not what this operation needs, because this
was not a CIA operation, it was a political operation, in the
city of Washington, D.C. And, being a political operation,
you have to have a big name in charge, you have to have some
political power.
And I started off with Helms, and he said,
"OK, who do you
want, smart guy?" So I started off saying, "I
think we need Des Fitzgerald," who was then Chief of FE
Division (and I'd been his Executive Officer in FE years ago,
now called EA Division). But he said "No, he's fighting a war
in Vietnam, can't use him." I said, "OK, my second choice is
Al Ulmer," who was then Chief of Station in Paris. I had been
Al's Exec in FE Division when he was Chief of FE in '56 or
'57, '58, I guess. And he said, "No, can't spare him." My
third choice was Tom Karamessines, who was then either Chief

in Vienna or Chief in Rome, I'm not quite sure. I think Chief
in Rome•
Again, Dick said, "Nope, can't spare him." I said,
"My fourth choice is Bill Harvey," who was then Chief, FI
Staff/Division D, and I thought he could be spared. Anyway,
Dick
said, "I'll think about it." A few weeks later, still
January of 1962, Bill Harvey came over to a meeting we were
holding, Zog and I were holding, in terms of what do we do to
answer some of the pressure from the White House. How do we
write papers which in effect says to the President "You're
just full of it, it isn't going to work, you've got no assets,
you wanted it all done by mirrors, and we can't do it, but
we'll try." Well, that is not a forward looking paper. And
Zog and I had to have some kind of help in terms of how do you
draft. in the English language something which says: "It isn't
going to work, boss, but we'll try." And make it sound good!
Anyway, Bill came over one day to one of these meetings, and I
thought to myself then, "Whoops, maybe we're going to get Bill
to take over." Because this is a political operation inside
the bureaucracy of Washington, DC; it's got nothing to do
with Castro. Bill came over, and shortly after that
particular meeting, which was then in the old Quarters Eye
Building, where we were still stationed in the old Bay of Pigs
offices--shortly after that, Bill became the Chief of what
later became Task Force W. And when Bill came over and Task
Force W was created, it was quite clear that Bill could not be
subordinate to J. C. King, so Cuba was taken away from WH

Division and made a completely separate task force all of its
own.
So, from being Deputy Chief of Branch 4 in WH Division,
I became the Executive Assistant to the Chief of the Task
Force, TEW, in January '62. I presume that answers your
question.
MSM:
YeS,
very completely. Thank you. My next one will be a broad
sort of one. What, as an Agency historian, do you think I
should know
about Operation MONGOOSE that I might not
know--that is not known or has been misrepresented?
SH: : Oh, that's easy. Let me start off--I happen to have this by
accident, sheer accident--Bill Buckley's new book, called
MONGOOSE, RIP. He says it's fiction, but he also says, on
pages 319 and 320, in something he calls "Booknotes," he says,
"This is a work of fiction. The most conspicuous historical
characters are obviously characters in history. And some of
the episodes are drawn from official and non-official, but
creditable sources." I'm still reading. I'll take this apart
bit by bit as we go and you'll understand why I'm doing it.
"Operation MONGOOSE was the name given by the CIA to the
attempt to assassinate Castro from 1961 to 1962 and to related
questions."
Period. End of Quote. That is a bald-face lie
from beginning to end. The name MONGOOSE was not a name given
by CIA to any operations. Ed Lansdale, General Lansdale,
as
the Chief of Operations for what became known as Operation

General of the United States, who we'll presume reported to
the President, his brother. Lansdale asked CIA--and I was the
officer involved--for a cryptonym he could use for this
national--I use the word, "national"--operation. All agencies
were involved. It was not
a CIA operation. I went to the
cryptic reference officer--I forget her name, Mrs. Gilbert, I
think--at the time, and I said, "Give me a cryptonym with a
digraph on the other side of the world--away from WH Division
or Latin America." I said, "This is going to get all over the
building anyway, let's confuse them as much as we can for at
least five minutes.
And when the cryptonym gets all over the
world, let's confuse the Russians for a while, because their
penetrations abroad will pick it up faster than we will."
But, being an old Far East hand, I said, "How about
See what they've got in the MO digraphs." She came up with
whole list of digraphs, and I remember telling this to Fritz
Schwartz of the Church Committee Staff. He thought I was
playing games when I picked MONGOOSE, because of the old story
about the mongoose and the snake--an old Indian proverb or
legend. I said, "Nope, I'm not that smart. Totally
ignorant. The word MONGOOSE just sounded good." So I picked
MONGOOSE, and I gave it to Ed Lansdale. It was his cryptonym.
his operation. It was & across-the-board Army, Navy, Air
Force, State Department,, Commerce Department, Treasury
Department-every agency in the government was involved in
this one. It was not just something simply a CIA operation.
5

## Page 8
13-00000
And we never, never, never used MONGOOSE inside the Agency as
a cryptonym to refer to TEW.
We had our own action indicator
for cables and dispatches, and we had our own info indicator,
and that's what we used.
We never referred to it as
MONGOOSE. I had one rubber stamp made, just for fun and
games. I had one rubber stamp made--MONGOOSE. It never saw
an inkpad. To this day, it's as cleam as a bell. It's never
been used.
The reason I can say that is because I have it.
As a souvenir. So, people talking about MONGOOSE as a CIA
operation are just talking through their hat, they're dead
wronge
And even looking at the Church Committee reports, you
will find that they don't refer to MONGOOSE as a CIA
operation. CIA was part of it, no question of that. But so
the Army, so was the Navy, so was everybody else,
including the State Department. And that's where you get that:
reference to the Caribbean Survey Group. That's a State
Department, was a State Department-run coordination committee
of sorts. It had a fancy title, that's all. It was part of
the
MONGOOSE activities, but that was State's share of the
operation.
So, let me keep on going here. He [Buckley]
says:
"MONGOOSE was a name given by CIA to the attempted
assassination of Castro."
Not true. MONGOOSE was never an
operation designed to assassinate Castro per se. MONGOOSE was
an operation to change the government of Cuba, and there were
no holds barred, that's true. And if that meant
assassination, or if somebody felt that meant assassination,
6

## Page 9
13-00000
so be it. But it was not started out as an assassination
operation. It was not meant to be an assassination operation
per se. The idea was to somehow change the government of
Cuba.
Even
as Lansdale's stupid memorandum talking about
assassination, or
"assassination"-
-that was an afterthought.

phrase.
MSM: "In August of '62.
SH:
Yes. And we'd been operating since October '61, for God's
sakes. So, for Buckley or anybody else to label MONGOOSE a)
as a CIA operation and, b) as an attempt to assassinate
Castro, is crazy. It's just absolutely false. Let me go on
to the next one he's got here. All of which he's trying to
prove that everything he's got in here, while it's fiction, is
based upon fact. It's not. He says: "The attempt to
assassinate Castro via a wet suit to be given to Fidel Castro
by James Donovan without his knowledge was made." Not true.
The wet suit wasn't even bought. We never even had a wet

to anybody, as a gift in terms of his negotiations
about freeing the Bay of Pigs prisoners. The business of a
wet suit was somebody's brainchild. The name of the man who
thought of the idea was George McManus. I don't think George
is alive anymore, but anyway, George came up with the idea,
7
---
## Page 10
13-00000
"Look let's give Jim a present to give to Castro." And the
idea was not to assassinate Castro via the wet suit, anyway.
It was to disable him, make him sick. But the thing never got
off the ground
aF dont thi tele bought the wet suit. Didn't
need to, because by the time we were thinking about it and
discussing it and wondering what the devil to put into the wet
suit to make him
sick, Jim had already given him the wet
suit. So we dropped it. And that brings me to another point
that's in the beginning of the book here, by the way. Very
fortuitous. Buckley starts off the book, in an unnumbered
page right in the beginning, quoting from the Church Committee
Report, which says, "We have found concrete evidence of at
least eight plots involving the CIA to assassinate Fidel
Castro from 1960 to 1965." That's totally false. There were
no eight plots, because among the plots--thei so-called
alleged eight plots--one is the wet suit, which never went off
the drawing board. Another one was Des FitzGerald's idea of
that exploding seashell. And that one never got off the
drawing board; it never even got on the drawing board. Des
came in one morning and said he had come up with an idea while
he was shaving. "Let's make up a fancy seashell, fill it with
explosives, put it on the ground, on the seabed, and when
Castro sees it he's bound to go for it, and it will blow up in
his face."
I looked at Des and I said, "you're crazy. It'll
never work."
He says, "You're always negative. Go talk to
TSD. "
It's now called OTS. I said, "Okay, I'll talk to them,
8

## Page 11
13-00000
but it's crazy. How the hell are you going to control that
thing?
HOw
are you going to make him go for that one shell
among a lot of others on the seabed? In the first place, how
the hell are we going to get it onto the seabed?" And he
says, "Go find out." Okay, I dutifully went and talked to the
TSD people. They looked at me and said, "Is Des kidding?" I
said, "No, he wants to know what's the chances." "Tell him
it's zero."
SO
I went back and told des it was zero. That,
my opinion, is not a plot. And neither is it an attempt to do
something. It never got off the ground. And among these
eight that they've listed--and I remember making the same
notations on the report when I wrote it and made my comments
on it...
MSM: This is indeed a quote from the Church Committee?
SH:

have the clipping. I remember the story. The woman may have
actually felt that she was recruited and working for CIA. we
never, never, never, never sent a mistress or a bedmate or
whatever you want to call it as one of the activities to try
to undo Castro. We just didn't. Other people may have used
CIA in terms of a false flag recruitment and convinced her
they were working for CIA, and that happened many a time. We
know, for example, that the US Army, Army Intelligence, used
CIA for cover in some of its activities in support of
Operation MONGOOSE, down in Miami, but we didn't know a damn
thing about it. And they were claiming they were CIA
operators, and recruiting people. And I think there is pretty
good circumstantial evidence, if not hard evidence, that the
Kolly.
Garcia Counterfeiting plan, for which they went to prison--he
and a brother, or he and a son, went to prison for
counterfeiting Cuban pesos--I think the poor people were just
taken down a garden path. They thought they were
counterfeiting for the CIA. And they weren't. We never got
into that. The Army did, I think. And the Army, I think
again, used CIA as part of a false flag recruitment for a lot
of people. So, I think this poor woman, and she may very well
have gone to Cuba for all I know, but she didn't do it for
the
CIA. And we've tried, but there is no way you can
correct
Aubtseat record. It's impossible. It just won't wash.

MSM:
Even if you got all the files out, nobody is going to believe
you. But that never happened. We did not use the woman to
try to get close to Castro. No way. So that's
a phony one.
Let me think.
No, we did try to give him a rifle.
Which ones are correct in there? In his list.
SH:
Well, I'll give them to you. "The allegation to the effect
that the Soviet Union had left in hiding in Cuba one or more
nuclear missiles, were made by Cuban refugee sources and later
by Senator Keating." That's true. Allegations to that effect
were made. So that part is true. And Keating was one of the
ones
making it. But he [Buckley] goes on to say, "These
charges were denied by Robert McNamara and John McCone on
February 6, 1963." And that's also true. But there was never
any evidence that any of the missiles were ever left behind in
cuba.
And there wasn't enough geological evidence--and I
Use
word
that carefully, because the idea was that these missiles were
being hidden in caves.
MSM: McCone worried about it extensively.
SH:
oh yeah, and we had cave experts up the gazoo going into this
whole thing in terms of the size and shape and configuration
of the caves of Cuba, and there was lots of information about
it, believe me.

And
the DDI people in those days were able to dig it all up
and prove that you couldn't put those missiles in any of the
caves in Cuba. Not unless they built special caves for them.
And there was no indication that they had ever done anything
like that.
So, true, allegations were made, and, true, the
allegations were denied. He's right about that. I don't know
anything about the assassination of Blanco Rico by Rolando
Cubela, and that I presume he got from the sources he lists
here, as well as I'm sure "Granmal, the Cuban newspaper, had a
lot about Cubela at the time of Cubela's trial. And so a lot
of it may have come out there. That I just don't know. The
next one is true. The attempt to expedite the assassination
of Castro by providing Cubela with an appropriate sniper's
rifle is factual. That part is true, fishe only trouble was;
ho never recepted it. He never took the pen, the hypodermic
pen, that we prepared for him. And the rifle, I don't think
he ever took, either. Although we were authorized to give it
to him. Or, rather, Des had authorized us to give it to
him.. The next one is the statement by Castro threatening.

Yeah, he uses an awful source for that.. There's no reason to
use

is a queer one:
"The sponsorship of Operation MONGOOSE bY
12
---
## Page 15
13-00000
President Kennedy and Attorney General Robert Kennedy is
asserted by Thomas Powers and John Ranelagh."
Why use Powers
and Ranelagh as sources for that? The Church Committee will
tell you that right there. That's crazy. The next one is:
"Although any direct knowledge of the plan to assassinate
Castro was denied by CIA director John McCone, (Church
Committee, Powers, Ranelagh) it is widely questioned that he
was in fact ignorant of the operation." He was ignorant of
the operation, believe me. He didn't know a bloody thing
about it.
McCone was literally ignorant of the operation.
Nobody was about to go check with him on this one. And,
again, the Church Committee report is very clear that
depending upon which activity you were talking about, McCone
never knew about the Rosselli business, without question he
knew nothing about the the Rosselli business. Without
mostie
never knew about the Ros
ras iness. And as
far as the AM/LASH or the Cubela activity is concerned, I
doubt if even Helms knew about it at the time. Des was
keeping this close to his chest. And, as I reported to the
House Assassinations Committee under Congressman Stokes
several years later, there were four people who knew about the
attempt to assassinate Castro using Cubela, and the four
were: me, the case officer
involved dealing with Cubela, Des
FitzGerald, and the doctor who provided us with the fountain
pen made into a hypodermic and told us what to use. Four
people in the Agency. Those were the days when you could
13
---
## Page 16
13-00000
still maintain some kind of limited activity, or limited
knowledge rather than activity. As I said, I don't think Des
even told Helms about it, let alone McCone.
MSM:
Why not McCone?
SH:
It's the same as you don't tell the President the details.
The job of the Agency is to carry out orders.
The details are
something else.
MSM: And the orders came from...?
This is the old question.
SH:
As far as I'm concerned, it came from John F. Kennedy.
MSM:
Through Bobby?
SH:
Through Bobby.
MSM:
Through Lansdale?
Or just directed?

you assume it must have been?

I think it's the way he reacted, the way he talked, the way
Des
talked.
The pressures Des relayed. His attitude when the
President was killed. And the conversations he had with his
wife, Barbara, in terms of going over to the house, the
Kennedy house. Things like that. There's no question in my
mind, they were close. Now, how close, I don't know. First
name basis,
sure, no problem.. Whether they talked to each
other about investments or whether they went on vacations
together or not, I don't know. But as far as this particular
activity is concerned, there is no question in my mind. Des
wasn't just doing these things out of his own mind. The
pressures that he relayed practically every morning when we
got into the office were just unbelievable. I've never been
on an operation like that before in my life, and I have been
in some fairly sensitive ones. It was just different. It was
just an attitude. We were all under the gun to do something
and do it fast. And there were no excuses accepted of any
kind.
"You," meaning you, Helms, FitzGerald, Harvey...?
well, there are two different periods
Yes, I realize I'm
mixing two periods.
And I happened to
be in both periods, unfortunately.

By "under the gun," you mean the pressure that was being

SH:
Oh yeah. Bobby was on the phone to case officers on the Task
Force, and later the Task Force became called SAS. And
Bobby's secretary--Angie, or Angela--she was on the phone
relaying orders from Bobby, as well. To case officers, right
down in the--we were in the basement, Ge, whatever it was--and
I remember we had to have a case officer, for example. whose
sole job was to carry out Bobby's wishes vis-a-vis the
underworld--let me call it the gangster world. This case
officer was given--and I'm not trying to be racial on this
thing, or ethnic--was given an Italian-sounding name. The guy
looked like: he belonged on the Redskins' line. Huge, big,
hulking guy. Lovely fellow, marvelous guy. And his sole job
in life was to go to the various people that Bobby sent him
to, all underworld types, all across the United States,
because Bobby had the idea that since the underworld had had
16

lots of connections inside of pre-castro Cuba, that they must
have
left their own staybehinds behind there. And therefore
they knew the place, and had the place pretty well wired for
information. Knew how to survive. And why the hell wasn't
CIA tapping this resource, this marvelous resource? And we
had to tap it. So we assigned one guy full time, and the
telephone calls he got from Bobby, right out in the--we had
big front area, the only way we could devise it: there was
the Chief's office, the Deputy Chief's office, my office, and
then what they called the "big arena," where we had a bunen of
secretaries out
in a big bullpen kind of thing. We had a
couple of phones, the outside lines, out in that bullpen. And
tha
Charlie was always answering the phone or being
called to the phone,, because his boss was calling--namely,
Bobby. And, "Ok," Charlie would say, "Guess I got another
trip to make." And so, the pressure was direct. It didn't go
through channels, believe me. McCone didn't even know about
all this. Helms didn't know about this, except for what Des
told him. Charlie would stick his head in to me--he wasn't
going to bother, first Bill Harvey, and then later Des--he
wasn't going to bother them with all those details. "I'm
going off on a trip." You don't bother the boss with, "I'm
going off to Denver, I'm going off to las vegas, I'm going off
to Miami, or whatever. He would stick his head in and say,
"I'm off again, Sam, good-bye." I'd say, "See you when you
get back." What else can you do? And the whole idea was to
17
---
## Page 20
13-00000
go out and talk to these people, whoever they were, and bring
back all these wonderful ideas on how to get rid of Castro.
And that was the phraseology-"get rid of Castro." It didn't
mean assassinate him, per se, just meant change the
government. But if it meant
assassination, fine, too.:
MSM:
Bobby used that phrase extensively in meetings,
and it can be
taken either way.
SH:
Take it exactly what the phrase is--"get rid of." He didn't
say, "get rid of, except don't have him break a leg,"
or "get
rid of, but don't have him catch
a cold"--just "get rid of."
You can take it any way you want. There were no holds
barred.
MSM: Most of the activity, the assassination attempts, you seem to
indicate took place under Des FitzGerald rather than...
SH: : Not true, not true. The ones I knew about. There's only one
basically, the AM/LASH operation. The only one I was directly
involved in. I say these four people were the only ones
involved in that one. Under Harvey, Harvey being a good old
bureau man, kept his own counsel, and all of his dealings with
Rosselli were unknown to me and unknown to his deputy. (Pause
for
telephone call). I was commenting about the fact that
under Harvey, his dealings with Rosselli were not known to

(JMWAVE in Miami, the station). They were not known to Bruce
Cheever, who was Harvey's deputy. They were not known to me,
Harvey's Exec. Harvey kept his own counsel. And I guess
about the only one who even knew that Harvey had been in touch
with Rosselli may have been Shef Edwards, but Shef would never
know the details.. Shef maybe put Rosselli and Harvey
together, or at least his Office of Security did, originally,
but Harvey wouldn't tell anybody a bloody thing, I'm sure. so
McCone wouldn't know about that, and that's what I was
referring to here. I think McCone's an honest guy, and when
he said he didn't know that there was an assassination going

on or
- what have you, I believe him. Every
second of the way.
MSM: How come Helms didn't?
SH:
What Harvey told Helms, I have no way of knowing. On the
AM/ LASH?
MSM:
NO, I mean Helms
didn't seem to believe that McCone could not
have known.
SH :
Well, the only thing I think with McCone is the same,
and he
said it in the Church Committee report, is that he couldn't
have gone along with any kind of assassination because
he
19

would have been excommunicated from the Church, and he is
very devout Catholic. And
so, I take the man at his word.
Why Helms thought that McCone had to know something, I don't
know.
MSM:
Because he did indicate this again and again throughout the
hearings. It's an interesting mystery.
SH: I don't know. He had better relationships with McCone than I
ever did, that's for sure. So I don't know. I didn't know
McCone from a whole in a wall.. First time I really got to see
McCone in action
was when I was « DDP representative to the
inter-agency committee doing the after-action report on the
Cuban missile crisis, which McCone chaired. And I saw him
first time in action, in real action, with coat off andly
shirtsleeves, into the wee hours of the morning--and it was
quite
session, several sessions. And McCone was a rough
taskmaster, very rough. And at the time I
thought he was an
awful DCI, but in retrospect, I think he was
the best
one
ever had.
MSM:
For what reasons?
SH:
be closes
The guy knew how to manage.
He had
to Fift to
the President,
which is the first job of any DCI-at least in our days, that
was the first thing. We didn't have to worry about Congress
20

## Page 23

so much in those days. and maybe it bin the worla now, and
you have to divide your loyalty, which I think is wrong.
Because as far as I'm concerned, CIA is a part of the
Executive Branch, and the head of the Executive Branch is the
President, and not the Congress. And I think there's a
division of labor there which Congress steps over the line too
often on all kinds of things, not just intelligence. Anyway,
McCone had good relations with the President, both Kennedy and
then Lyndon Johnson, and when he lost that good connection
with the President, Johnson, he quit. And that was the right
thing to do. And he quit in
'65. He wasn't asked to leave,
he quit. And I think McCone
knew how to get things done, knew
how to manage, knew how to delegate, and did not confuse
himself with all kinds of minutiae, as some of our Presidents
have done.
Like Carter and Kennedy®
MSM:
Kennedy, too?
SH :
Oh, Kennedy was awful on minutiae. As I testified to the
Church Committee--Bobby, particularly, and the Special Group
(Augmented), which was the group that oversaw or had the
oversight for the Operation MONGOOSE--when
we presented plans
to them for sabotage operations into Cuba, the questions were,
"What kind of shoelaces are the men going to wear?," and
"what's the gradient of the beach?," and "what kind of sand is
there?" Now that's ridiculous for a man at that level to
21

worry about that kind of stuff. That's the same thing that
happened during the missile crisis itself, when the white
House was trying to tell the Navy commanders at sea, the
Atlantic
Admiral of the fleet, how to load his guns.
In what order to
put the armour piercing, the tracers, what have you, bullets
in the machine guns, in the airplanes.. Now that's nonsense.
And this is why, I think, George Anderson finally ended up as
Ambassador to Portugal.. He got kicked out of the CNo job
because he tried to tell the White House, "Hey look, the Navy
knows how to run
a ship at sea, for God sakes." And that's
why I say McCone was a good officer, a good director--I think
he's
the best.
So anyway, that digresses from MONGOOSE.
MSM:
Can we go back to the beginning of MONGOOSE?
SH:
We can go back. I just took this [Buckley book] as a text. I
got so
mad when I read that. Because people will believe it.
That's the trouble.
MSM: You were talking about MONGOOSE's origins in October of '61.
The first document I find in DCI papers is the first meeting
McCone attends. It appears to be an early meeting, if not the
first. As I recall, it is about
November 2lst in '61.
Richard Goodwin is there, I believe, Lansdale, Bobby, the
President and McCone. Very small group. And they are
discussing things, and it is very much at the beginning.

SH:
It's not really the beginning
MSM:
It's after the beginning, okay. And McCone says, "Okay, this
is fine, but all this activity, all these operations, are
going to have to come under the oversight of the 5412
Committee.
The President agrees, and Bobby agrees.
Somewhere
along the line we
seem
to get a Special Group (Augmented). It
is never quite clear. Is Special Group (Augmented) the
Special Group 5412 plus Bobby?
SH :
Yes. And Taylor, General Taylor.
You've got it, right there.
That's the augmentation.
MSM: I've read it a different way. I think Powers, Ranelagh and
those have described it as coming out of Special Group (CI),
which was
a much larger...
SH:
Much larger.
MSM: And CI seemed to have nothing to do with Cuba. It was
everything but.
SH:
That's correct. I think the Church Committee history of that,
I think Karalekhs got this particular part of it right. she
got a lot of
things wrong. As a matter of fact, when her
history came out, in '75 or '76, I sent her something like

Report itself--and you can check that, look at it. I don't
want to take the time now; we can if you want to. But let me
give you a little bit of background on this. I came back from
Saigon in October '61. And after giving my report
to both
Des, who was then chief of FE Division, and to Bissell, and to
(I guess) Helms, as to what I thought about the situation in
Vietnam at the time--and this was when there was a grand total
of 3,000 Americans--men, women, and children--in Saigon, if
you can imagine what it was like. It was beautiful. Stilla
little old French city, except that the VC, the Viet Cong,
were all over the place. After giving my report about how bad
I thought the situation was and some recommendations as to
what
should be done, I was told to take a
few days off, 90
home and relax, forget about it. And I didn't have any
assignment at the time as to what I was going to do next. I

was sitting out in the back yard here and had
the radio on and
a beer in hand, and suddenly they announced that walt Rostow
and two guys from the White House were going out
a mission
to look at the situation in Vietnam. I said, "well, my report
had some effect, anyway. They won't believe me, but at least
they're going to go check me out." I went back into the
office in October '61, and I was told to go see Bissell.
Bissell, whose career had been ruined by the Bay of Pigs, and
everybody knew it, and he didn't know höw long he was going to
be around' anyway-he allowed as how he had a job for me. And
the job was Cuba. And I said, "Where the hell is that?" And
so, he sent me over to see 2og. And that was
the first time
I'd ever met Zog. And then, that same day Bissell called for
both zog and me to come back and talk to him. And it was at
that time, early October '61 (and I can look it up on my old
calendar to see just what day it was, if necessary), he
said--and this is actually quoted in the Church Committee
report, because I'm the guy who told them--Bissell said he had
been in the Cabinet Room at the White House, and he was told
by both the President and by Bobby to get off his ass and get
rid of Castro.
That's the beginning of MONGOOSE, as far as I
know it. And then he said that Ed Lansdale was probably going
to be
in charge of the operation. It was going to be
a ..
government-wide operation, under tight control, and that Ed
would probably come over to get a briefing from us. well, Ed
came over this

formalized, because I don't think that was formalized until
sometime in November-McCone wasn't even on the scene yet.
McCone may have been a gleam in Kennedy's eye, but he sure as
not
hell wasn't in charge yet. He was on deck. I don't think
McCone came around until November, sometime. Ed came over and
started all kinds of screwball ideas and laid out his plan for
the operation. All the agencies of the government,
particularly CIA, State Department and a aspects of the
Defense Department were going to detail men, money and
materiel, plus space, to what amounts to a new agency headed by
Lansdale. And these people
and the money and
everything else
was going to be taken away from these agencies, on detail, and
Ed was going to run a new agency against Castro. This was
Ed's idea. No other way to do it. Well, we thought it was
crazy.
MSM:
McCone thought it was crazy.
SH: You're damn right, because we sent out papers right away
saying, "Whoops, what's going on here?" McCone, Rusk and
MacNamara, not only said "No," they said "Hell, no. The money
is appropriated to the respective agencies by the Congress of
the United States; we're responsible to the Congress of
the
United States for that money, etc. etc. You can't take the
stuff away from us. We'll do all we can to help, but through
the normal chains of command." So in effect, Lansdale became
26
---
## Page 29
13-00000
Chief of Operations, technically and theoretically through the
various Secretaries--the two Secretaries and the DCI plus
whatever other agencies he needed help from. In practice, Ed
dealt directly, for example, with with Bill Harvey after Bill
was named in January of '62. Before then, Lansdale dealt
directly with zogby and me. And he used as his. ftape

who was actually the legman between Lansdale and zog and me.
I knew Frank from way back-he was an old Agency guy, and he
had been sent to the Pentagon on detail. As a matter of fact
it was Frank's suggestion that got me thinking about sent
something bigger than a
Zogby and a Halpern. At this level,
you need some political weight in this town, and that's when I
went through that whole business about getting somebody else.
And I remember Frank
saying, when Bill Harvey was picked in
January, he said
to me, "Now, Sam, the Agency is showing good
sense. They finally put a real top-notch operator in.
charge." That was the attitude of Bill as a rough tough
5.0.b. On the outside. Inside, he was soft as melted
butter. A wonderful guy to work for. If you didn't mind
having a loaded gun pointed at you. So MONGOOSE began in
october '61, shortly after I got back from Saigon, and didn't
become formalized until
, I think it was, November '61, and
that's when you had your meetings that you probably have
records of.

MSM:
Right. Right. There's a Presidential Directive that appears
at the end of the month.
SH:
Okay, as you
well know, by the time a Presidential Directive
gets put together and signed, a hell of a lot of stuff has
happened before. And, while theoretically that's the formal
beginning of an activity, its genesis is long before that.
It's just like the Church Committee. It didn't spring up out
of nothing in January of '75, it began months and months and
months before, by other people who were looking into
destroying CIA, and they succeeded. Anyway, that's the
beginning of MONGOOSE. And, as I say, I didn't even give that
the cryptonym until sometime in '62. So, you didn't even have
a name for it. But he was looking for it. That's the
beginning of it.
MSM: A period that I find terribly interesting in respect to
MONGOOSE is the Cuban missile crisis. During the crisis, the
Agency has been portrayed as being a rogue elephant in Cuba.

Reconnaissance teams. Bill's idea was,
that if the US forces were going in--and everything looked
like they were going to go in (they sure as hell were getting
ready for an invasion, and they were making no secret of it,
they wanted the Russians to know--they were going to need
some kind of help getting in. And it is always nice to have
somebody on the beach waving you in, telling you that's the
way to go. Rather than go stumbling across some landmines or

the island of Cuba, were still being tasked for collection of
intelligence, no matter what the hell was going on. And in
that regard, MONGOOSE didn't shut down. Until after the

middle of
this missile crisis? And, if so, what happened?
SH: I think it was right after--well, the Missile Crisis only
lasted about what--ten days?
MSM:
It was over by October 28.
SH: Yes, 14 days, two weeks. What happened, as far as I know
it-and this differs from what you're going to get from Walt
Elder, if you talk to Walt (Walt was McCone's Exec., and
sometimes
I think he forgot he that
was an Exec. and not the
Director, but that's between Walt and me, and we've had this
over the years--we're old buddies). Harvey, at the white
House r
told the President and Bobby what he thought of them in
no uncertain gutter language, in McCone's presence. He just
let himself go. The exact words I'll never know--I don't
think anybody will ever know unless McCone remembers them.
But Bill was so mad, so angry at the whole effort (I guess
maybe even starting with the Bay of Pigs, for all I know)-at
the attitude and the way the Kennedys handled themselves, in
that they were more concerned about the Kennedy escutcheon
than they were about the security and
safety of the United
States. The Kennedy name meant more to them than anything

else. And Bill just let himself go, to the point where McCone
had to remove him and couldn't let him go back to the white
House again.
MSM:
This was during the missile crisis?
SH:
During the Missile Crisis.
MSM: Do you know when?
SH:
I'd have to really think about that one. I just don't know.
MSM: Where did you hear this? I'm curious.
SH:
From Bill.
MSM: From Bill:

And from Bruce Cheever, who also heard it from Bill. Bill
just let himself go. He told President Kennedy what the hell
he thought of him, that's all. It's very hard to do that to
any President
and survive, let alone with the Kennedys. And
McCone had no choice but to remove him.
And then, when that
happened, somehow Helms got into the act (Helms was then DDP),
and
Helms saved Bill's ass, and didn't fire him.' And he kept

Just to get him the hell out of the way, so he wouldn't be
around the building and all that kind of stuff. And Bill went
off in early '63 to Rome. And Des came down (I say "down,"
because we were still in the basement), he came from FE
Division to head up the Task Force, because Des had already
blotted his copybook with MacNamara, anyway, about VietNam.
We had some strong characters in those days. Guys who didn't
give a good goddamn about anything except getting the job done
right. And Des came down to take over from Harvey. And
changed the name from TEW to SAS. So that's where Harvey, in

an order had come through, I would
have had to have seen it. Bruce Cheever would have had to

have seen it. In order to transmit it down to the troops.
Somebody
would have had to send a message to JM/WAVE. There's
no other place. JM/WAVE was our station in Miami, actually
south of Miami.
But anyway, you have to find such a message
in the cable files, and go through the cable registry and see
if you can find it. And you won't find it. As far as I know,
you won't find it. There was no such standdown, as far as I
know.
MSM:
That's very interesting.
SH:
Not during the missile crisis. By jingo, we were looking for
information everywhere you could find it, and there was only
one way to get intelligence--that's from agents. And so we
were looking and looking and looking.
MSM: Could it possibly be the other way entirely--that, instead,
during the missile crisis, the kennedys were putting the
pressure on Task Force W, putting the pressure on for
operations?
SH:
The only pressure I remember is pressure for information.
Information, information, information.
They wanted to know
what was
going on.
MSM: How about sabotage?

## Page 37
13-00000
SH:
No, that had stopped anyway. Simply because we couldn't, you
couldn't put together an operational plan that was going to
satisfy the Special Group (Augmented) well enough to get it
going. Every one of our plans, every single one, had to be
presented to the Special Group (Augmented), so they could ask
about things like shoelaces. It took months, literally
months, to put that kind of stuff together. Like the
Matahambre mine, for example. And it was kind of crazy.
So
when you talk about sabotage operations, they weren't going
off like clockwork every hour on the hour, every day on the
day, every week on the week. It took weeks and months of
planning to get even one
going.
MSM: But the Kennedys--I've found some evidence that Bobby was
demanding an increase in sabotage operations right into the
early part of the missile crisis. That he was putting
pressure on.
SH :
You may have found, I don't remember that particular...
MSM:
You don't have any...

keep looking for new plans--"How do you blow up this or blow
up that, or cause some other problem?," and those were
intrained all the time in terms of the guys on the PM staff.
We had our own PM section working on plans for "what do we go
for next?," "what are the targets?," and "how do you do it?"
And that never stopped. We kept doing that all along.
MSM: What was the relationship between Lansdale and the Agency?
SH: Let me put it in terms of a fighting relationship. How about
that? That's a fair summation. Most of us thought that ed
was for the
birds. I knew Ed from way back in
early
incarnation of the Philippines. When he made his name. He
fell flat on his face in Vietnam because he and Diem never hit
it off. With Diem, he pulled out, because Diem couldn't stand
him any more. It was counterproductive to keep Ed in
Vietnam. (This was in '54). He did very well with Magsaysay,
no question about that. But we always thought he was kind of
a kook. Most of the guys, in
the old FE days, anyway. When
he was put in charge of the Cuban thing, we thought he was
even kookier. Even before it became MONGOOSE as MONGOOSE,
when he came over for his first briefings in the old Quarters
Eye Building (we were using the old Bay of Pigs war room, as a
matter of fact, and they had a huge map of Cuba on the wall),
36

## Page 39

^ .
and he saw the Isle of Pines, and he said, "What's that?" So
we told him-what little we knew.
This was
the blind leading
the blind (I was just barely learning where Cuba was myself).
So we had some other guys around from the old days that were
still there from the Bay of Pigs, and he said, "What's on the
island?"
So we told him, including the Modela Prison and so
on. And he said "Whoops, that's it." And I said, "whoops,
what's what, Ed?" He said, "We'll take the island, we'll make
that our
headquarters command post, and we'll operate off the
island down to Cuba." I said, "Ed, are you serious? You've
got to have rocks in your head. You couldn't get within miles
of that place, let alone take the island." He said, "oh,
that's no problem. We'll just take it." I said, "ed, you've
got to get your feet on the ground. It won't work. You can't
do it."
He said, "Oh, we did worse things than that in
Vietnam and the Philippines." I said, "Ed, I know about the
Philippines, I know about Vietnam, I know what you did, and
this isn't going to work." But that's how flakey he was.
In
addition to, I think you've seen the Church Committee
Report--this business about the Jesus Christ superstar.
That's Ed. So we had a fighting relationship, and everything
was done at arm's length, and I think that's one of the
reasons he
used Frank Hand as a go-between--at least at my
level and, to some extent, Bill Harvey's level. But Harvey
wasn't going to take any crud from a guy like Ed. He'd call
it like it was, and if he didn't like it,
could
go complain
to the Director.

Were things getting particularly bad with Lansdale, relations
with him, during the missile crisis? There appears to have
been a major organizational disruption of some sort. I can't
figure
out what it was.
SH :
I don't know just what you're referring to. I don't remember
anything as such. Things were hot and heavy, and people's
tempers during the missile crisis were very short, let me tell
you that. Including mine being short with some of our own
case officers, some of our own personnel in the Agency. I
needed some money, for example--I needed cash one night at
about one in the morning. I needed all the cash the Agency
had in the building to send people out with neutron counters,
to find out if the nuclear warheads were coming in. And some
poor little guy, some finance officer, couldn't understand
this at all.. And he wouldn't do it. I called the Director of
Finance and, with no by your leave, I said, "If you don't
believe me, that I've got the authority to do this, then you
call the Director.
But I want that cash down
here in jig

nobody was

SH: After the missile crisis. Everything just dead in the water.
We continued to try to collect some intelligence, we weren't
planning any sabotage operations, everybody knew that Bill was
leaving, the new boss had not been appointed. You can get a
much better feel by talking to Bruce Cheever on this than you
can from me, because he was the guy who was really holding the
fort together, and I was helping him. But it was Bruce who
was in charge, technically. And things didn't start perking
up until January of '63, when Des was appointed. And Des came
down, and we went back into business. And all these stories
that have appeared over and over again by the Kennedy
clan--that CIA went off on its
own
after the Cuban missile
crisis, and the Kennedys wanted to be friends with Castro and
all that kind of
nonsense--is nonsense. It is sheer, utter
nonsense, because we started back up again under Des
FitzGerald, because the Kennedys were saying, "What the hell,"
you know. "Castro is still there. Do something. Do
something!" So that's when we started all over again.

MSM:
Of course you were getting prisoners out during this time,
too.
SH:
Ap
Prisoners were in December. And the speech that Kennedy made
down in Florida to the Brigade when they came out, you
know--that this flag will be back in free Cuba, free Havana,
and all that kind of stuff--there was no letdown by the
Kennedys. Even though the Schlesingers of this world and the
Mankiewiezes
Mantewitzes of this world keep on making out that it was CIA
that did it, and not the Kennedys. It was the Kennedys who
put des in charge of the next effort, and it was the Kennedys
who pushed us again into the whole business. And we kept
saying, you know, "This isn't going to work any better this
time."
MSM:
And then it ended, with the end of the Kennedy administration,
with the assassination.
With the assassination of the President. We
continued for

the effort. (?) while, but Johnson felt. we were arguing against running
sabotage operations all along, but we had to do it. The
Kennedys wanted. boom and bang. After Kennedy died, we
continued for a
short while, because Rostow (Walt Rostow)
wanted to continue the effort and got Johnson's OK on that.
And we continued sabotage operations I think until '65.
Despite the fact that we were arguing against them all along.

"Let's stop it, stop it, stop it.
It's counterproductive.
We're not getting anywhere."
But we continued to follow
orders. That's why it is so ironic to be called a rogue
elephant by anybody, when all we were doing
was trying to be
good soldiers.
MSM: Well, I appreciate this very much. All the information you've
given me here this morning. Anything else you think I should
know?

Depends on how much you want to know about MONGOOSE.
are a lot of gory details.
There
MSM:
I'm not writing a history on MONGOOSE:: This is really a
history on McCone.
SH:
He was a good boss. In retrospect, he was the best we ever
had.
MSM:
In retrospect, not at the time?
SH,:
Oh, at the time, if you were under his lash you would not have
exactly felt right
about it either. He was a very rough
taskmaster. You were entitled to one mistake. Literally, one
mistake. And then don't ever darken his eyes again. It was
rough.
I remember, for example, during one session of his
41

## Page 44
13-00000
post-mortem on the missile crisis, poor Pat Carter, General
Carter, was cut to ribbons by McCone.
Literally cut to
ribbons. You could almost feel the blood flow. The way
McCone just tonguelashed him in front of the entire
USIB and
all of the hangers-on, including
me.
MSM: For what?
SH:
On the Cuban missile crisis, the beginnings of the Cuban
missile Crisis. On the handling of the SNIE, that famous SNIE
which said the Russians have never put missiles abroad, therefore
they'll never do it in Cuba. And McCone, of course, sitting
off in Nice knew goddamn right they will.
MSM:
And he sent back, honeymoon cables
SH :
Yes.
and Carter didn't buy them at all.
MSM:
And that was what McCone was cutting Carter up for?
I've
never had any record of that, that's
marvelous.
SH:
you won't find any record.
they taped
it.
It was
all oral.
I don't think

This was
after the missile crisis?

SH :
Oh yes.
This was the post-mortem.
MSM:
When would this have been? November. December?
SH:
YeS •
Something like that. And I was the DDP rep.
Harvey--let me give you
a little bit on this...
Bill
MSM: Yes. I'm very interested.
SH :.
Jack Earman was IG.. Ken Greer was one of his officers on the
IG staff and Ken, I think, is living in Minnesota or something
like that. Oh, there was another guy, a nice young fellow.
I
can't think of his name. Anyway, Jack and his staff were told
to do, in effect, a post-mortem. And they started doing it.
And Jack apparently called Bill Harvey and said (Bill was
still sitting there in charge) to assign somebody to help him
on this thing from the operator's point of view.
MSM: Harvey was still on Task Force w at this time?
SH:
Yes. This is right after the missile crisis.
He kept sitting
there until he left, went off to Rome. As a matter of fact,
when Des came down, he was still there in January of '63. He
was sitting, not in the--we called
this the bullpen, which
was
a big room across from the secretaries' rooms (I could sketch
it out for you if you're
interested sometime). He kept sitting
43
---
## Page 46
13-00000
there anyway.. As a place for quarters and rations until he
went to the
Italian desk. Jack wanted somebody (and Jack's
dead also, unfortunitely, He wanted somebody to represent
the operators on this thing, because everybody was there,
from
the State Department, the DDI types, the Defense people from
all the various services, etc. And I was detailed, and Bill,
I remember, saying to Jack, "How long is this going to take?"
And Jack said, "Oh, about a day or so." Well, it lasted a
couple of weeks. But anyway, it was quite a
session. And one
of the sessions I'll never forget was when we got into this
detail, and I was surprised at McCone doing this. It's one
thing to whiplash your deputy or a subordinate in private.
It's another thing to do it in what I call public,
particularly when there are a bunch of junior officers
around. And, hell, I was a 15 or 16 in those days, and that
to me is a junior officer compared to the people sitting
around the table. Roger Hilsman was there, Kirk was sitting
there, and poor Pat Carter. Every time he opened his mouth he
was browbeaten by McCone. Over and over again. In not polite
44
---
## Page 47
13-00000
language, which I was surprised at from McCone. •I never heard
him use--it wasn't gutter language, it wasn't barracks-room
language, but it wasn't polite, gentlemanly language. And I
don't remember the exact words, but the feeling I had was, in
effect, saying, "Well you dumb ninny, what the hell did you do
that kind of thing for?," you know, and that kind of stuff. I
cringed, literally cringed, sitting up there. Poor Pat
Carter. I would have cringed for anybody being given that
kind of treatment.
MSM: Do you think that was typical of the relationship between the
two?
SH: I don't know. I have no idea. Walt Elder would give you a
better feel
for that than I can. Apparently, it wasn't good.
No matter what it was. It couldn't have been good. Not to
get that kind of a treatment. And this was only in one
session, and we had numerous
sessions. First we had our
working group sessions, and those went on interminably. I
remember Bill McAfee, the State Department representative
from
INR. Bill and I were old friends, and we got to be better
friends as a result of being on this committee. Bill and I
exchanged glances, I remember, at this particular session, and
we wondered what the hell was going on. It is unlike senior
officers to do that. So when you talk about relationships
during the missile crisis, and even afterwards, it was touch
and go for a lot of people.

MSM:
What were the real sensitive issues you had to deal with
during this post-mortem?
SH :
^
In the post-mortem? The information that we collected--I mean
that we, the operators, collected. The uses made of the
information by the intelligence analysts. Not just CIA, but
all the analysts. How they downgraded all the information
that we provided. Some of it was our own fault, the
operators' fault, because--let me give you an example of what
I mean there. On some of the most significant (there were
about eight, if I remember correctly-six or eight really
significant reports) about missile sightings, which were
downgraded by the entire community (the analytical side of the
community), and on one or two of them (I'll never forget this,
because it was our fault and I had to admit it at the meeting)
the headquarters comment (we had headguarters comments in
those days, I don't know if they still do), the report itself
said that the agent reported to have seen something that was
sales
30 meters long. Headquarters comment ge
that the source
probably meant 30 feet long. And I hadn't seen this. Jack
King--John Kerry King--was the Chief of Reports for the Task
Force, and he was the guy who saw it and Ok'd it and put it
out. I didn't see it until much later. That in effect cut
the
feet off of the report. So it was that kind of sensitive
issue in terms of collection capability, the sourcing, the
reports writing of it, the headquarters dissemination of it,
46
---
## Page 49
13-00000
d
and what was done with it by the analysts. And everybody was
fighting for turf. And everybody was sensitive as to whether
they did anything right or wrong. That was one of the
issues. Another issue was the mechanics on handling
overflight photos. The Navy took some pictures, for example,
of one Soviet merchant ship at sea bringing stuff in with big
holds, big hatch covers. It took ten days for those photos,
ten days, to show up somewhere on the analyst's desk. What
happened to the pictures for ten bloody days? And you're
sitting on the Soviet side, you see the plane overhead coming
down low in a swoop and taking a picture, Navy markings and
all (it was a Navy plane), and you report back to Moscow, you
know, "Plane overhead, I'm still heading for Havana." And
nothing.
The US government doesn't do a thing for ten whole
days. So, if you're sitting in Moscow on their version of a
National Security Council, you're thinking "well, maybe they
don't care. So, okay, we'll keep on going." That was a
sensitive issue. What happened in those ten days. The Navy
couldn't figure--I don't know to
this day that they ever
figured out what the hell happened to those bloody pictures
for ten whole days. Whether they were sitting in some chief
petty officer's in-basket or what, nobody knows.
Sensitive
issue
#3 that I remember: NSA in summer of '62, July or
August, I believe, put out an analysis (theoretically, they
weren't supposed to, but they did of what all these soviet
ships coming to Cuba and leaving Cuba-you know, we were
47
---
## Page 50
13-00000
would haired
bearthe tape
Is tig to fill the
counting all these ships coming back and forth. It was a
regular parade.
And NSA puts out an analysis saying the ships
are there to remove from Cuba all of the excess military
hardware the soviets have put in
well, obviously, at the
time of the missile crisis, NSA immediately asked everybody to
return this Top Secret COMINT-handled HVCCO and all that kind
of stuff. And all copies being recalled. Well, as good
officers, everybody always made copies of everything being
recalled. But there was another issue. What the hell was NSA
doing, doing analysis? And the question was whether they
should be prohibited in the future from doing analysis. There
were a lot of turf battles of this kind going on. I can go on
in terms of what was being
kicked around in terms of
problems. You know, us operation guys, for example. Were we
concentrating on
the
right targets in terms of getting our
assets? The whole missile crisis began with a fluke, a pure
and utter fluke. And again, it took time because of the
Pinar del
method of getting the report.
We had an agent in the fanaldo?
none of thee Fines;
sio province and one of the
., and he reported
athat there wasksh
sid easolty leaned an thing, people and
names of
precisely where it was, so he gave us little towns. We
plotted the towns, and it turned out to be a trapezoidal
shape. But that report, which is the one which targetted the
U-2: and led to the overflight (and we in the
operations
couldn't ask for the overflight. We had to ask our MONGOOSE
compatriots in G-2 who were involved in this thing and cleared
48
---
## Page 51
13-00000
for MONGOOSE, they had to ask for the overflight. We
couldn't.
Don't ask me why, but those were the ground rules.
We couldn't ask for it. So we had to ask them). They came
over to our war room and I was in the room when they plotted
the damn thing, and there was a trapezoid. But that report
in
took ten days to get to us. It was
SW, secret writing, I
don't know what type of secret writing techniques he had--it
could have been lemon juice
for all I know. It took ten days
for that to get to our chemists to develop the bloody paper.
To get the report. Before we could even see it. Now, why did
it take ten days? Well, international mail. I forget whether
he was mailing it to Spain or
mailing it to Mexico, or what
have you, but anyway, that was the only route 'that we had
out. Why didn't he have a radio? Big argument, you know.
What about the size of the radios? You can't get the radios
in, and etc. etc. etc. But those were big arguments that
were going on. So there were those kinds of problems
in terms
of the operators. Were we doing our job properly? Why didn't
we do it sooner, faster? Why didn't we learn about the
missiles coming in before this particular report? Well, you
had all kinds of reports about missiles. But where do you
draw the line? And the analysts of course were defending
themselves in terms of, "you cut off your own report by
telling us it's 'feet' not 'meters,' so we couldn't take that
on face value," etc., etc. So you keep on fighting about
these.things.
The Defense Department guys were being slammed
49

## Page 52
13-00000
around, the G-2 guys particularly, for not cooperating better
with us in terms of combined assets on the island to find out
about these military pieces of hardware, and
.. so on and so
forth. You name the problem
and we were kicking it around.
And each time it was related to the Cuban missile crisis
itself. And it was a
handy tool, if you wanted to hit
somebody over the head, to hit them with, and it was hard to
defend on a lot of things. And all you could end up with was
saying, as I think the Senate Armed Services Committee ended
up with its report saying, that in retrospect, the
intelligence community as a community worked well, we
discovered the bloody missiles beforehand, before they were
ready to use, etc., etc. And the important thing about
this--and people keep forgetting it--is the worldwide
intelligence effort.' It's not just on one island of Cuba.
Even in the missile crisis. Peoplé forget about Penkovskiy.
photograph
Without Penkovskiy's 5,000
rames, we wouldn't have known what
the hell they were doing on the island. And I remember
talking to the photo man, and you can talk to--do you know
Brugioni?
MSM:
No, I do not.
SH:
Well, talk to Dino. He's retired, and he's around here, and
he's a great guy.
50
---
## Page 53
13-00000
MSM: I've read his article on this.
SH :
2
Well, without
that report, without first of all the
trapezoidal report, we
wouldn't have known where the hell to
send the U-2.
Because even with the report--I'll give you
another example, part of the fight of the port-mortem.
During
the COMIREX approval, the overflights and all the flights had
to be approved. At that time, in October of '62, the
overflights were limited to four flights a month. By whose
decree? State Department, I guess. But somebody had decreed
four flights maximum. And if weather or mechanical failure,
or what have you, canceled any one of the flights, you didn't
save that flight for the next month. You had four a month,
whether you flew them or not. And so, when the report of this
trapezoid came in and the G-2 people at our instigation asked
for an overflight of this particular spot on the western part
of Cuba, I'm told it took more than 10 days to get that
approved, to get the flight approved, because the State
Department representative--I don't know who he was, and I
never want to find out because I'd go shoot him--he said,
"No. We've been flying that part of the island all the time.
We haven't flown the eastern part for a long time. Let's fly
the east." And it took 10 days for the bureaucracy to argue
that out, so the flight could go where it's supposed to go.
So all of this was being kicked around at the missile crisis
post-mortem.
I learned a lot sitting there. I was the junior
51
---
## Page 54
13-00000
officer present. You learn a lot listening to all this
stuff.
As to what was going on in the bureaucracy, it was
fierce.
I hope they've made changes. But anyway, all of
these things were surfaced on the table. Everybody was
arguing pros and cons. Some things were done, and approvals
and changes were made, stuff like that. One big change that
was made after that had nothing to do with that particular
committee.When Des took over from Harvey, because of this
reporting problem and the headquarters comments that were on
there and the fact that a lot of the reports that we had
provided from
human sources were downgraded by the analysts
because
a) it wasn't a picture, and b) it wasn't COMINT, SO
without the two nothing else matters. Des had, and over the
objections of me, Bruce Cheever, and a hell of a lot of other
officers
in the Task Force (SAS by this
time), asked for a
senior officer from DDI (I forget his name now but I think you
can find it in the record) to come down and Des would
make
available to him all-source information of each and every one
of our sources•
True names, true positions,
the whole
business.
Never been done before. At least
I'd never heard
of it. And des wanted this very senior, well respected
officer, had been around years, to just sit and look at who
our sources were. And to tell him frankly, are they worth
anything or not? As I say, we fought it and we argued with "
Des and I think he didn't even ask--he was the kind of a guy
who wouldn't even ask--he didn't even ask Helms' permission.
52
---
## Page 55
13-00000
He told Helms he was doing it, period. Helms said, "okay,
give it a try." When this guy finished, he was amazed, and he
said, "You're downgrading your own sources by not putting in
better bylines to tell the analyst a little bit more if you
said, "You've got some wonderful sources."
And he
went back to his own people and told them that. And I must
say, he never, never, never, never once divulged a source.: So
things like that came out of the missile crisis and came out
of
the post-mortem committee. Of course Des heard a lot of
this stuff, he'd looked at a lot of this stuff, and he was
flabbergasted. So I hope other things were done the same.
The COMIREX thing got reorganized somewhat.. And the State
Department didn't have that final clobber on it any more.
From
four a month we went to practically four a day if we
could fly. We flew as many missions as we could fly. And
then of course the big fight between. the CIA flying it and the
Air Force flying it. And there was more sweat back and
forth. All of which was kicked around. I don't think anybody
kept any notes, I don't think anybody kept any minutes. A
final report was written
and had more bloody cryptonyms on
that report than you can shake a stick at. I wasn't cleared
for half of them at the time, and I said that to sombody. And
they said, "Don't worry. At this stage of the game it doesn't
matter."
The bulk of that report was actually then sanitized
and given to the Senate Committee--I think it was the Armed
Services--and they used a good bit of that final report in
their final paper.
---
## Page 56
13-00000
MSM: That's the Earman report.
SH: No, it was after the Earman report. The Earman report was the
first draft, kind
of. And then we went to the USIB, the
conference, the big conference where poor Pat Carter got
clobbered.
Then after that, we had to sit and make a final
report that McCone could give to the President. And also a
copy went to PFIAB. And that you ought to be able to find.
MSM:
Yes.
SH:
That was a good report, I thought. My blood's in that one.
Sweat," tears. Every comma and semicolon. (Laughter)
MSM:
This has just been fascinating. I really appreciate it.
SH :
well, it's history.
MSM:
Yes, it is indeed. May I call upon you again to clarify any
questions that I might have?
SH:
Anytime, anytime.

when
SA Sammon was being questioned as to squad assignment
classifications,
and identities of Agents of the Miami,
Florida,
FBI Office from 1961-1964, SA Sammon advised

however, the committee was reminded SA Sammon's
recollection of the events may be six months to perhaps •
a year off. Mark Speiser advised SA Sammon that the
committee would only allow a four month leeway. This
comment may have been misunderstood by SA Sammon and
may have been in jest by Speiser; however, in any regard,

statement that events occurring 14-17 years ago would be
there would be no
on SA Sammon, unless the committee intended to furnish
him documentary verification.

his interrogation, with the exception of SA Sammon
being furnished a
lengthy article from what appeared

article was furnished SA Sammon briefly in an effort

he (WILSON) had killed DR. KING rather than JAMES EARL RAY.

AT SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS
On August 21, 1978, a review of court records, Bexar
County 57th District Court, San Antonio, Texas, revealed WILSON
was incarcerated for Contempt of Court growing out of a civil
suit entitled "Allison-Kaufmann
Company, a California corporation,
v. North Star Diamond Corporation (case number F248-084) of which
WILSON was listed as the owner.
This civil suit involved a fraud
case and WILSON was incarcerated following his refusal to furnish
the court with an inventory of merchandise in his possession
belonging to Allison-Kaufmann Company. This incarceration did
not involve any action growing out of child support.
The following investigation was conducted by Special
Agent WAYNE SMITH:
• AT SAN MARCOS, TEXAS
On August 19, 1978, JO ANN CHILDRESS, 113 Mill, San
Marcos, Texas, advised
that she met BURGESS AUDIE WILSON, JR.,
also known as
Bill Wilson, at Sadler, Texas, in September, 1977,
and they were married in November of
1977.
They separated
February 15, 1978 and the divorce was finalized on April 26, 1978.
On August 12, 1978, she received a telephonic message from WILSON
indicating that he was in the state of Tennessee and was involved
in an automobile accident.
WILSON stated that as a result of
this accident both of his legs were amputated. CHILDRESS advised
that WILSON is a "very convincing liar and a con-man". He has
never mentioned the death of MARTIN LUTHER KING and has never dis-
played any hatred or dislike for members of the black race.

he was a Prisoner Of War (POW)
during the Vietnam conflict.
She is aware that WILSON visited the Veterans Administration
(VA) Hospital in San Antonio, Texas on several occasions, but
she possesses no knowledge of him suffering from any psychiatric
problems.
By previous marriage, WILSON has three children, two
sons and one daughter, locations not known by CHILDRESS.

Dear Don,
On October 12, 1978, I recieved a letter from James Earl Ray requesting that
this Department try to locate a motel that he stayed In or April 1, 1968. The
motel is supposed to be on Highway 72 in Corinth. I checked with the Southern
Motel and they have no record. I also checked with the Corona Plaza. They have
no record but the ownership has changed hands several times since 1968 and the
present owner is trying to locate the old records.
Enclosed you will find a copy of the letter and diagram of the location of
the motel. Also enclosed is a message from the National Sheriff's Association
addressed to Mr. Ray.
Do you think there is any reason why we should check any further into this matter
since you checked all the motels in 1968?
If we can be of any assistance to you in the future, please feel free to call
on us.
With kindness and best regards,
edwin

ASSASSINATION OF MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
CIVIL RIGHTS
On January 30, 1979, an anonymous woman caller
telephonically furnished the following information to
• Agent Udo H. Specht, FBI, Dallas, Texas:
I she stated that an individual by the name of
C. H. Wilson, residing at Boyd, Texas, in a brick house
on the road between Boyd and Azle, Texas, might have been
responsible or somehow involvea in the assassination of
Martin Luther King, JI.
She described Wilson as a white
male, 6', 180 pounds, 51 years of age, and a pipe welder
by trade.
Wilson was involved in Ku Klux Klan activities
I lived in Greenville, Mississippi in 1968 and prior to
that.
Prior to the assassination of King, Wilson allegedly
stated that he would kill or was going to kill Martin Luther
King.
Wilson and another man, whom she would not identify,
were in Memphis the day King was assassinated. At that time,
Wilson owned a relatively new white Ford Mustang bearing
Mississippi license plates.
After Wilson returned to
Greenville, Mississippi, from Memphis, Tennessee, he hid the
white Mustang for approximately one month.
The caller stated that wilson is an alcoholic and
was during that time.
He was drinking two and three quarts a
day.
The caller stated that Wilson is mean and capable of murder,
especially. if he has been drinking.
The caller would not identify the other man who was in
Memphis with Wilson until she found out somehow that someone is
investigating what she is saying.
On January 30, 1979, a telephone company information
operator advised that a
C. H. Wilson is listed as residing in
Boya, Texas, telephone number (817) 433-5105.
The Dallas, Texas FBI indices to investigatory records
did not reflect any information identifiable with C. H. Wilson.
This document contains neither recommendations nor conclusions of
the FBI. It is the property of the FBI and is loaned to your agency;

This will confirm our conversation concerning obtaining proof
with respect to the alleged peace talks with Castro in October anc
Jovember 1963. Box 45 "Cuba-William Attwood," reviewed by Susat
Pitts in the Kennedy Library, is said to contain "correspondence
concerning arrangements for negotiations for U.S./Castro talks,
10-11/63. We have also heard stories about French journalist Jean
Daniel being an emissary from Kennedy to Castro at that time. As
you know, during October and November assassination devices were
being prepared and were offered to AMLASH,
Agency? Was the AMLASH assassination effort consistent?
In the telephone conversation I had with Arthur Schlesinger
he said he thought Bill Attwood was more important than Daniel.
Schlesinger will be here in Washington on July 9 and 10 and plans
to come see us at 9:00 a.I. on July 10.
Would you take care of all of the above.

a memorandum be prepared for higher authority on the subject of what plans
can be made for a successor government to Irujillo."
10. The reports referred to by the DCI at the Special Group meeting on May 4,
1961. The Minutes state: "The DCI referred to recent reports of a new
anti-Trujillo plot."
11. The "Cuba Paper" mentioned in the Special Group Minutes of May 4, 1961.
The Minutes state: "Mr. Bundy said that this point (anti-Trujillo plot
planning) is covered in the Cuba Paper which will be discussed at a high
level in the very near future."
12. Any Action Memoranda or other documents which would clarify the action
taken by the Special Group at the meeting on May 18, 1961. At that meeting,
Gen. Cabal noted that internal dissidents in the Dominican Republic were
pressing fox the release to them of certain small arms, "now in U.S. hands
in the Dominican Republic. He inquired whether the feeling of the group
should not be passed. The members showed no
inclination to take a contrary position at this time."
(It is not clear
whether a contrary position signified contrary to the desire of the
internal dissidents or contrary to Gen. Cabal's suggestion that these
arms not be passed.) (Source: 'Special Group Minutes 18 May 1961,02769)
13. A paper on Covert Programs for Cuba was presented by the DCI at the July
The paper appeared to be a basic
position paper: Its para. Za read: "The basic objective is to provide
support to a U.S. program
to develop opposition to Castro and to help
bring about a regime acceptable to the U.S."
July 21, 1961, 02778)
14. On July 27, 1961, the Special Group discussed a CIA paper titled:
"Internal Action Operations Against Cuba" dated July 25, 1961.
The Group
discussed its relevance to the
"basic paper discussed last week."
(Source: Special Group Minutes July 27, 1961, 02781)
15. On August 3, 1961, the Special Group reviewed "a condensed set of recom-
mendations summing up the proposed Cuban program." This paper was

16. On October 6, 1961, Mr. Parrott told the Special Group that there was
in preparation "a contingency plan in connection with the possible
removal of Castro from the Cuban scene." (We should obtain this plan
as it may relate to an assassination plot.) (Source: Special Group
Minutes October 6, 1961, 02783)
17. On December 8, 1961, Gen. Lansdale presented "the outline of a program
designed to overthrow the Castro government." (Source: Special Group
Minutes December 8, 1961, 02795)
18. The March 26 Special Group Minutes referred to a "Shipping Sabotage
Paper of 19 March.
For Group consideration by the Cottrell Connittee.
Group Minutes March 26, 1963, 02839)
19. On April 4, 1963, the Special Group approved three papers which were
subsequently approved by "higher authority" on April 9. The papers
were titled "Sabotage of Shipping," "Russian Language Broadcasts,"
and "Propaganda Inciting Cubans within Cuba to Attack Soviet Troops."
(Source:
Special Group Minutes April 4, 1963, 02844 and Memo for
Members of the Special Group April 9, 1963, 02845)
20. The Minutes of April 11, 1963, Special Group meeting referred to
"Three papers being considered
nay deal with sabotage in Cuba as there was a "lengthy discussion" of
i dad as chay up mang.
One of these papers
the entire question of sabotage at the meeting. Also, the Minutes state:
"The comments from the Coordinator of Cuban Affairs dated ll April on
the three papers being considered at today's meeting (were requested by
the group to) be withdrawn and destroyed for security reasons."
Note:
We should perhaps make a request for such comments, to determine
whether they were in fact destroyed. (Source: Minutes dated 11 April
1963, 02846)
21. The Minutes of 18 April 1963 indicate the Special Group "turned to dis-
cussion of the papers from the Coordinator of Cuban Affairs dated April
16, 17, and 18."
There is no indication of the subject matter of these
papers. The Minutes state that it was agreed these papers should be
"staffed and sharpened up for presentation at next week's meeting."
Note that the Minutes indicate the title of the paper dated April 17,
as "Maximum Covert Action Program" which consists basically of "sabotage
and harrassment, plus support to Cuban exile groups and individuals who
may be responsive to our advice but not certainly to our command."
Note further that the Minutes state Mr. Bundy and McCone expressed doubts
as to whether "we are in a position to decide major problems of this
type (presumably reflected in the three papers) until we have a clearer
picture of what the overall policy toward Cuba is likely to be...."
Note also that Me. Bundy stated he was not sure whether "it would be
possible to embark on the activities proposed in the Coordinator's
papers, without a drastic change in U.S. policy." (Source: Minutes
dated
18 April 1963, 02848-49)

22. A memorandum for the Special Group dated April 26, 1963, (02853)
which discusses a paper on "new covert policy and programs toward
Cuba" states that decisions have been made regarding certain of
the item numbers in that paper.
24. A memorandum for the Special Group dated June 19, 1963, subject:
"Sabotage Program, Cuba" discusses a meeting with higher authority
on that subject at which a "proposed program was approved dealing
with 'external sabotage' directed at four major segments of the
Cuban economy: (1) electric power; (2) petroleum refineries and
storage facilities; (3) railroad and highway transportation; and
(4) production and manufacturing."
(Source: Memorandum June 19,
1963, 02871)
25. The Minutes of Special Group
meeting on 18 July 1963 state that higher
authority had no objection to a program recommending a new "political
action" plan for Haiti. Col. King told the Special Group that
"everyone concerned with the project agrees that Duvalier must be
removed in some manner or other." King went on to say that the existing
plan is unworkable and thus it is "best to switch to a different kind
of operation. This would include training of exiles in cross-border
operations with a long-range objective of establishing a clandestine
organization and building an effective opposition in Haiti."
(Source: Minutes 18 July 1963, 02878)
26. Minutes of Special Group meeting 15 August 1963 (02880) indicate
the Special Group approved a "Operational Proposal"dated 12 August
1963, relating to "a non-violent program to inhibit free world and
neutral trade with Cuba."
27. The Minue cone special
27. The Minutes of Special Group meeting on August 29, 1963 (02883) state
the Group considered a paper from the Coordinator of Cuban Affairs
dated August 12, 1963, titled "Support of Autonomous Anti-Castro Groups."

more if it still appears desirable in light of the comments at that
meeting and by higher authority.
Also note that the Minutes of October
24, 1963 (02898) state that
"CIA is dropping its earlier proposal to
support Commandos L, due to the crackdown on exile raids by various
U.S. and British Government agencies."
29. The Minutes of November 12, 1963 (02905-08) indicate Mr. Fitzgerald
reported on Cuban operations under six main headings.
Given the
length of this report, there may have been some formal paper from which
Fitzgerald spoke, although the minutes do not refer to any particular
piece of paper.
30. A number of particular "operations" designated by number and purpose
are mentioned in the minutes of Special Group meetings on 14 November,
5 December, 6 December, 19 December, 20 December, 1963 and January 2
and January 9, 1964.
If desired, we might request the backup papers
for these operations. Typical operations were described as "the ex-
filtration of two members of an existing resistance net," the"infiltra-
tion of a five-man team for the purpose of sabotaging a
railway bridge."
31. The Minutes of a Special Group meeting on February 13, 1964, state the
Special Group discuss "a specific Department of Defense paper" which
dealt with, among others, the following topics: "Harrassment of Free
World Shipping to Cuba,"
"Covert Economic Activities," "Encouraging
Dissidents Among Factions,
" "Actions Against Cuban Subversion in Latin
America."
Source: Minutes dated 14 February 1964 (02919)
32.
The Minutes of April 3, 1964 (02924) refer to a paper entitled "Status
of Sabotage
and Raiding Capability Against Cuba.
The Minutes also
state that "three separate papers" were submitted to all members of the
Group and the Group concluded to approve five infiltration/exfiltration
operations and five caching operations, but table the five sabotage
proposals.
33. A memorandum for Mr. Bundy dated 18 June 1964 (02931) refers to a "Helms
Memo to DCI entitled Plans of Cuban Exiles to Assassinate Selected Cuban
Leaders, June 10, 1964."
34. The Minutes of a meeting on June 18, 1964, (02932) state that: "A paper
was discussed
on alleged plans which involved the underworld to assassinate
certain Cuban leaders."
No other identification of this paper is given,
it may refer to the Helms memo immediately above.
35. The Minutes of July 9, 1964, (02937) indicate that Mr. Bundy read a draft
NSAM "dealing with the establishment of a new working group to examine
the problem of Cuba."
36. A memorandum by John McCone to McGeorge Bundy dated August 19, 1965,
summarizes seven reports regarding the status of an FBI investigation
re "Plans by Cuban Exiles to Assassinate Cuban Government Leaders."
The reports apparently were of interviews by FBI agents of various
individuals allegedly involved in the plans. (Source: 02943-44)

38. A memo for the record dated ll September 1964 (02948) states that "basic
reports of the Cuban Study Group established by NSAM 311 of 10 July 1964
were nearing their final stages and that certain gaps were being closed
between the SNIE findings and those of the Critical Collection Committee."

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT
: Australian Press Request Regarding:
Anonymous Telephone Calls to United States
Embassy in Canberra, Australia, Relative to
Planned Assassination of President Kennedy
(Warren Commission Document 971)
Background
Mr. Peter Michelmore, an Australian newspaper representative,
has requested that we declassify CD971. This consists of a memoran-
dum from you to Mr. Rankin dated 22 May 1964 and an altachment dated
29 November 1963. Both relate to "crank" calls received by the U.S.
Naval Attache in Canberra on 15 October 1962 and 23 November 1963.
CIA first was told about these calls on 24 November 1963 by the Depart-
ment of the Navy - after the assassination of President Kennedy. A
copy of CD971 is attached for your information.
Recommendation
1. CD971 should not be released at this time. Mr. Goodwin says
he can handle the reply by phone.
2. We will initiate preparatory steps toward releasing CD971. This
entails clearance with U.S. naval intelligence and the Aust-alian security
service (the latter as a matter of courtesy).
3. Upon completion of step 2, we will submit an appropriate rec-
ommendation.

Dear
Mr. Helms:
This letter 1s to request the declassification of Warren Com

This material would seem to be of interest to our Australian
newspapers and, bearing in mind that this material will be
made public at
some time, I would like the opportunity to 1n-
spect it.

I have read Section 798, Title 18, United States Code, which specifically
source is of the utmost importance to the United States and that the loss of
such sources would be irreparable.
I have been inforned that pursuant to law and as amplified by Agency rogula-
tions, I am not to discuss with or disclose to any person any information
relating directly or indirectly to Communications Intelligence unless such
person is currently authorized to discuss or receive such information or
material of the particular category involved. By regulation I am aware that
the responsibility of ascertaining that such
an authorization for another
person is valid and current, and that it is of appropriate scope, rests with
me. I am aware further that if a change in my assignment or status renders
it no longer necessary for me to receive Communications Intelligence, my name
will be removed from the list of persons authorized to receive such material.
I hereby affirm my understanding that no change in my assignment or employment,
including termination, will ever release me of my obligation under the oath
signed below.
OATH OF SECRECY
I do solemnly swear that I will not discuss with or disclose to any person,
regardless of his official position or status, any information relating
directly or indirectly to Communications Intelligence, any information de-
rived therefrom, or the nature of the sources of such intelligence, until I
have ascertained that such person has been authorized to discuss and handle
Communications Intelligence and that his authorization has not been revoked.

: Interview: The purpose of the interview of Mr. Taylor was to
review his Statement and
to interview the witness.
This inter-
view took place on Sunday, June 11, 1978, at 3:00 p.m. at the
Holiday Inn, 1575 Regal Row, Dallas, Texas. Mr. Gary Edward
Taylor, date of birth 12-24-39, who is the employed as a taxi
cab driver for the Yellow Cab Company in Dallas, Texas. Tele-
phone number at work is 426-2626. Mr. Taylor stated that he
met Lee Harvey Oswald and Marina Oswald in early September. of
1962 in Fort Worth, Texas. In describing LHO, Mr. Taylor stated
that he was not a very nice person to know.. He was never light-
hearted nor did he ever make jokes. He was not a very sociable.
person. Mr. Taylor stated that during the time that he knew
LHO, he had talked with him only on a very general basis about
his stay in Russia.: Taylor stated that Oswald had never dis-
cussed his ever being debriefed by the KGB while he was in the
Soviet Union. Mr. Taylor said that he had never heard LHo men-
tion that he had attempted to commit suicide while in Russia
nor had he ever noticed any scars as a result of that attempt.

in the Soviet Union only in a general way and would never be
specific. He talked about the society as a whole but never
about his position in it. Mr. Taylor had the impression that
Oswald did not like living in the Soviet Union. He stated that
LHO did mention that he had worked in a radio factory while
in Minsk and stated that he made metal chassis.
He described
his job as being that of a sheet metal worker. However, Taylor
stated that Oswald did not go into any details concerning his
work.
Mr. Taylor described Oswald at this point in the inter-
view as being a very superficial person. He described him
as "like a kid coming to school without doing his homework."
Mr. Taylor further recalls that he (Mr. Taylor) thought it odd
that IHo did not know how to drive a car. Taylor stated that
he had been asked by George De Mohrenschildt and a friend of
the De Mohrenschildts by the name of George Bouhe to teach LHO
how to drive. Taylor stated however that he has no knowledge
of Oswald ever- learning to drive a car.
Mr. Taylor stated that IHO talked only in general terms
about where he lived in Russia. He did mention living in Minsk:
but gave little insight into his living conditions.
Taylor
stated that he got a feeling that. Oswald lived under average
conditions. He stated that Oswald had mentioned that he made
the minimal wages, which were about
forty-five rubles a month.
He went on to state that he had spoken of having only one pair
of shoes and one coat. Taylor recalled that LHO had never dis-
cussed with him what his social life was like while he was in
NN 55923 DooId: 32256841 Page 5

## Page 6

Page 3.
Russia and he added that LHO was "a person of few social
graces" and that he appeared to be a person who had no time
for people in general. He described him as being untypical
and as being a person who was self-motivated to personal ef-
forts or personal goals.
Mr. Taylor reflected that he could not understand the
interest that George De Mohrenschildt showed towards LHO dur-
ing this period. He described De Mohrenschildt's actions as
giving Oswald money, helping him by giving him clothing and
then by virtually forcing Oswald on his friends, that is, the
friends of De Mohrenschildt. He also stated that De Mohren-
schildt spent a great deal of time with LHO. Mr. Taylor said
that was
difficult to understand because George De Mohrenschildt
had children and a family of his own and he had never done any
of the things that he had done for IHo for his own family. He
stated further that this interest was out of character for
George De Mohrenschildt, considering that 1HO was a "nobody."
Mr. Taylor stated that IHO had never mentioned having
any contact with the KGB. He stated that Oswald could not
understand why the Russian Government was not interested in
him and he believed that this hurt LHO. Taylor stated that
sometime about six months before the assassination, he had
visited Marina at their apartment on Neeley Street in Oakcliff.
but Lee was not home at the time.
While he was at the apart-
ment, Marina had shown him a rifle belonging to LHo which she
got from behind the door. Taylor could not describe the weapon
NA 55923

except to say that it was a rifle.
He stated that he believed
Marina was afraid of LHO and during this visit she sensed that
she anxious for him to leave. He recalled that he had seen
signs of Márina being battered by LHO. He had observed on occas-
sions bruises and abrasions which he believed were caused by
LHO.
Taylor stated that lHO never discussed why the Soviet
Government allowed him to remain in Russia or why they let
him return to this country.
This witness had no knowledge of any friends or associ-
ates of LHO other than those persons mentioned in the Warren
Commission Report. He stated that he never discussed the U-?
program with LHO. Taylor advised that he had nowknowledge
that LHO was an extensive reader. He recalled that he did
subscribe to and receive one Russian periodical. He did not
remember the name. He later stated that he recalled that Os-
wald did mention that he had read Lenin, Karl Marx, and Adolph
Hitler.
Mr. Taylor stated that he knew of only one interest
that LHO had, and that interest was writing. He said that
LHO spent most of his spare time writing. He further recalls
that Oswald had given him a manuscript which he, LHo, had writ-
ten. Taylor said that he read a very small part of the writ-
ings and concluded that it was very poorly done and so he
never finished reading it.
Taylor continued to recall and stated while giving his
Warren Commission testimony, he was shown a manuscript by Mr.

Jack Genner, Counsel for the Warren Commission, and that
he did not. reconize it as the one given him by LHO. He
further stated that about a year ago he was interviewed by
Edward Epstein, the author, and at that time he was shown a
manuscript by Mr. Epstein which he (Taylor) recongized as the
one given him by LHO. Mr. Taylor said he could think of noth-
ing LO did or said that led him to believe that oswald had a
motive for killing President Kennedy. He stated that LHo to
him was just an insignificant person.
Mr. Taylor, when questioned about his employment in
1959 ox 1960, stated that he had worked at a number of jobs dur-
ing that time. He was a
student in college and he recalled that
one place he worked was the stockroom in J. C. Penny's Store in
Dallas, Texas. He could not name his supervisor. Mr. Taylor
stated that he had worked for R.C.A. Service Company at Redstone
Arsonal, in Alabama, as a sound engineer and that he had trouble
getting a security check clearance; however, he had later: gotten
the clearance. When asked if he knew Donald Waltrum, Jack Moore,
and R. K. Johnson, or Sigmund Andrews, Mr. Taylor said that he
knew them all except Donald Waltrum.
Taylor said that he had lived two doors down from Jack
Moore when he lived at 3245 North Crest, in Dallas, Texas.
Moore at that time was living at 4241 North Crest. He admitted
knowing Moore since 1951. He stated that Moore's children and

his children are friends.
He advised that Moore is now re-
tired from a family business. The family business was selling
surgical supplies.
The business carries the family name and
is
still in Dallas, Texas. Taylor stated that his son and
Moore's grand-daughter are now dating each other.
R. K. Johnson was a close personal friend of Taylor.
He was a free-lance photographer who had taught him photo-
graphy. He had worked for Johnson as a free-lance photography
assistant at 3507 Travis Street in Dallas, Texas. He stated
that he met Johnson in 1957 when he became interested in motion
pictures. Johnson was in that profession at the time. He
stated that Ralph Johnson died Easter Sunday, 1967.
Mr. Taylor said that he met Sigmund Andrews in 1957
when he was involved in motion pictures and he stated that in
1960 Andrews came to Dallas and they worked together doing
industrial and motion picture advertising. for Keitz Herdon
Company in Dallas. His former wife, that is, Andrew's former
wife's name is Norma, and she is now married to William Holiman
who is the assistant agent in charge of the Dallas Field Office
for the F.B.I. He stated that he has not seen or had contact
with Andrews in quite
some time, for over a year, but that
he has
seen Norma Holiman recently. Mr. Taylor stated that he
had worked for Sellers Company or Sellers T.V. Studio .at 2102
Johnson Street in Dallas, Texas. in 1963 and 1966. He stated
that he worked
as a sound engineer and that there were only

three people in the company, a man by the name of Ken Brown,
and J. E. Sellers and himself.
The company was involved in
making television/motion picture advertising.
Taylor
stated that he knew of no employee of the Sellers
Company who was acquainted with, associated with, or even
knew LHO.
Near the end of this interview, Mr. Taylor asked me
if the Committee had George De Mohrenschildt's papers from his
estate. I made no comment and Mr. Taylor stated that, asked
me, in other words, if I knew that. there was a confession among
George De Mohrenschildt's papers. I still made no comment.
Mr. Taylor then stated that he had been told by Alexandra
De Mohrenschildt, his former wife, that there was a confession
among George De Mohrenschildt's papers, and he indicated that
that fact was the reason why John, Jane and Alexandra De Mohren-
schildt were fighting so hard in the courts to obtain possession
of George De Mohrenschildt's estate, papers and all. Mr. Tay-
lor was very cooperative during this interview. He suggested
very strongly that some member of this Committee contact and
interview his former wife, Alexander De Mohrenschildt. He
stated that if there was any way that he could help in the in-
vestigation, the Committee is free to contact him at any time.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
SUBJECT:
Chief, Foreign Intelligence
TDY to Nexico CIty
1. After taking a good look at LlENVOY and LIVFAT, I would agree
with the persons I talked with in Mexico, they maintaln that any well-
run tap operation should produce substential Intelligence information,
provided the targets are of Intelligence Interest, and provided also
there are people at the station who look for 1t and are able to recog-
nize 1t. The case of LIFEAT 18 interesting in this respects It has
been deprived of its most productive lines In favor of LJENVOY, and
yet Its intelligence production compares favorably with that of the
other productive taps, except LIENVOY.
2.. Mexico has people who can detect any 11ttle 1tem of 1ntell1-
gence significance.
This Includes the Chief of Station, who goes over
the highlights of the previous day's take every morning and marke
certain Items for action by station case officers or reports officerss
The reports officers work on copies of the take at the same time.
there are several aspecte of hiiivor that make it an excellent
operation and an outatanding producer of intelligence. I will describe
them in detail when my notes get here from the station.
The principal
factors in the success of LIENVOY seen to be the following.
a, The agreement made with top Mexican officials, unlike
many such agreements elsewbere, 1s as much in effect today an it
was at the start:
the targeting 1a not based on personal politica;
the Intercept staff has stayed on the job; the equipment 1e con-
sidered to be on loan from CIA.
b. The native monitoring staff has reached a peak of effec-
tlveness that everyone at the station praises very highly.
c. The station 1s organized to handle the take speedily as
soon as it comes 1n.
The Chief of Station, the case officers, the
reports officers, all work on it at the same time and exchange
vows on hot items. They do not let reports backlogs accumulate.

d. Each new item on a target person is linked to a past
history; what appears as a fragmentary bit in a conversation
becomes a meaningful development in a continuous story. Conti-
nuity on the job makes this possible.
The equipment is kept in good working order by complete
cleaning and checking of each unit once a month. The 32 units
in use today are those installed in 1959.
4. A detailed description of. LIENVOY and Its counterpart LIFEAT
hould provide good models with which to compare other tap operations
It should give criteria for good procedures. It should give some ide
of the desirable size of such operations, considering the available
targets, the size of the station, and the other taske and operations of
the station. It should show what the station puts into 1ts tap opera.
tions and what it gets out of them.. LIENVOY and LIFKAT are an interesting
example of two Interacting operations, one joint and the other Independ-
ent.
5. My stay in Mexico was as interesting and fruitful as 1t was
enjoyable. And I hope It was not too great a burden on the station.

The following information, based upon statements
reportedly made by Dominick Edward Bartone at various times
in the past, was received by the Department of Justice from
a confidential source who has furnished reliable information
in the past:
In regard to money invested by Bartone in Niagara
Crushed Stone (Humberstone) Ltd. (NCS) in 1959, Bartone
advised that he had the money in a French bank
in Panama
and wrote a check for it in Canada, so that the money went
from one foreign country to another without going through
the United States. In regard to money borrowed from Public
Bank for use in connection with the operation of the NCS
quarry, Bartone stated this was bank money and not Union
money.
He also expressed the belief that Public Bank
borrowed money from the Central States Teamsters organization
at a low interest rate and then lent it out to Bartone and
others at a higher rate.
Bartone stated, however, that he
was not certain about a lot of this information, but he had
found out various things and then had "figured from there".
Bartone stated that when he was called before the
Federal Grand Jury at Detroit in September, 1963, he "took.
the Fifth" because he did not want to get into trouble with

the "racketeers". Bartone was apprehensive that he might be
asked how he had got to Joseph F. Verhelle, former President
that vexhalle was not lie wish the "racketeeri!
Referring to Louis "Babe
iscaro-and William
res twenty-fe pete dent indeet in elen quarty bye
Mi they actually did not. Bartone said they had probably
received favors from James Hoffa but they did not "come up
with the scratch". Bartone stated he, himself, had never
been involved in any "payoffs" with Hoffa. After. Bartone
had additional financial problems with NCS, he reportedly
had a discussion with Hoffa during which Bartone became
angry and "exposed his people" in front of Hoffa but Hoffa
did not do anything about it. Hoffa subsequently told
Bartone that it looked like Bartone had a "bad deal" and
not to blame Hoffa but to blame "your people". Hoffa said
they did not know how to count up to a million, let alone
borrow a million, and they did not know how to do business.
Hoffa indicated Bartone should have come directly to Hoffa
rather than going through them, and Bartone said he did not
cut corners and it was through them that he had met Hoffa.
Bartone indicated that in 1961 when he was trying
to obtain new financing for NCS and was having a survey made
Meissner Engineers, Inc. (MEI), Verhelle either would not
release the necessary information or else gave Bartone and
MEI incorrect figures. Verhelle finally gave some papers to
Mel after an official of the Continental Bank in Chicago
(with which Verhelle was formerly associated) had been
requested to contact Verhelle concerning the matter. Following
the Mel survey there was a proposal that Salk, Ward
and Salk
provide additional financing but they did not do so because
they knew Verhelle and he promised he was going to let some-
body else buy it and they would "get a piece", according to
Bartone. Bartone expressed the opinion that Salk, Ward and

## Page 5
Salk were "crooks"; that if they lent money they wound up
with a piece of it; and they would try to get forty or
fifty per cent of a deal if they knew the borrower was in
a disadvantageous position.
government astone sato beated in A bartone had ned:
authority to try to get additional financing for NCS,
establish letters of credit, etc.; but Bartone had made
records available to show that he had such authority
through Powers of Attorney and other documents giving
him the right to go out to seek private financing through
Eno daneway. Mel, salk, Ward and salk, or any other
source Bartone wanted to use.
Bartone said that the present owners of the NCS
quarry are going broke on the operation and want to give
it back to Bartone "on a platter"'. Bartone said the quarry
had only been producing about 300,000 tons a year and nobody
will do business with them; that Bartone had "knocked them
out" of about 700,000 tons; that after Alvin Niman had
lost the sales and distribution business for NCS in the
Cleveland area, it was given to a former Naiman associate
(probably named Barricelli) who used to haul for Sandusky
Crushed Stone; that there had been a shortage in payments;
and "they ought to do business with us this year"
In regard to $50,000.00 which had been posted
with bankruptcy officials in Canada in connection with an
attempt to regain control of NCS in 1961, Bartone advised
that the money was sent back and Bartone gave $25,000.00
to the Metropolitan Bank for the benefit of Don Ross and
MOSSA
others, and Bartone used the other $25,000.00 foy Janefield
Village and other interests of Bartone.

negotiating with
ment of the property, which is about 1½ miles west of
Cypress Gardens. Bartone indicated that Advance Mortgage
was going to put up the development money and Bartone may
have a quarter million dollars "preliminary money". Bartone
said that in regard to this matter he was staying away
from Hoffa and that if Bartone's present plans work out
Bartone would not need assistance from Hoffa or others.
Bartone also advised that he recently was
involved in borrowing $155,000.00 in connection with a
frozen food plant in Miami and
also is involved in a
$125,000.00 deal through which equipment would be pur-
chased possibly for an oil field development in Guatemala.
He indicated he is involved with a bonding company and has
a partner by the name of Wysockie (phonetic) who may have
some racketeer connections.. Bartone indicated that he has
people who can go to a bank and get loans on their signatures
provided Bartone can post a guaranteed bond for them.
Through this means, it cost Bartone $23,000.00 to borrow
$175,000.00. He advised that he had supplied some property
as collateral so that Wysockie could write a $100,000.00
bond and that Bartone had been selling a few lots for
expense money to get around.
In early 1961 Bartone claimed he owned the Playboy
Club franchise in Mexico City, Mexico, and in the summer of
1961 he said that he had or could get 10,000 Ml rifles.
ecently indicated he has banking comections at the Roya
ank of Canada. in Nassau and has an interest in the "Britist
Colonial Savings and Loan in Nassau, in which he had
100,000 shares when the stock was a dollar a share.. This
savings and loan organization had made mortgage loans of
over $100,000.00, had reinvested about $25,000.00 savings
deposits, and kept its money in the/Royal Bank of Canada at
a good rate of interest.

Bartone allegedly travels only at night and by
automobile. He has recently been accompanied on some of FiA
his business trips by Nicholas NicKA Morris. Morris
reportedly resides in Miami with his father and has a
sister who is employed by the State Department and is
FAlL
narried to Gregory Pahules,.
a Miami attorney. When Bartone
was in Chicago about 1961, he and some of his associates,
particularly Morris, were believed to be carrying guns.
Also about that time Bartone reportedly stated that he
was connected with Hoffa and got a new Cadillac every year.
Bartone subsequently claimed to have "told off" Hoffa and
to have fallen into disfavor. When in Chicago in the past,
Bartone reportedly was in contact with Barney Baker, Joe
Glimco and Tony Accardo.
Bartone was associated with Don Ross at one time
in the ownership of a catering business, now defunct; and
in 1962 Bartone allegedly owed $67,000.00 to RoSS. ROSS
reportedly was "started out" in Chicago by Dave Yaras;
operated an automobile dealership and had other business
interests in the Chicago area; and recently had something
to do with a juke box enterprise in California.
Bartone once said, that there had been some k.s,d
"shenanigans" between P. D. Maktos and Peter Clayton
regarding promising, or getting legal fees,
to get Union
loans for people.
Bartone was skeptical about individuals
who claim they can get a loan from Hoffa. According to
Bartone, the Central States committee recommends whatever
Hoffa recommends and it has to be a "good legitimate deal"
- but Hoffa makes the decision.

i.. Contingency Plan for Overt US Military Intervention
in Cuba. In order to insure a decisive US military capability
for overt military intervention in Cuba, CINCLANT's regular
contingency plan for Cuba has been updated. Attempts are
being made to reduce the reaction time required for imple-
mentation of this plan, without piecemeal commitment of US
forces.
j. Alternate Contingency Plan for Overt US Military Inter-
vention in Cuba. CINCLANT developed an alternate plan which
accomplished a reduction in reaction time but requires piece-
meal commitment of forces. In order to reduce the risk in-
herent in such an operation CINCLANT is seeking means for
reduction of the reaction time without piecemeal commitment.
k. Cover and Deception Plan. This plan has been developed
for the purpose of covering the prepositioning of forces allocated
to the contingency plans for overt military intervention in Cuba.

nd economic interest were provided to the Caribbean Admission
Center, Opa Locka, Florida. All information obtained from these
sources was processed through the Intelligence Community's
channels. The flow of information concerning Cuba has been
greatly improved as a result of these efforts. However, gaps
still exist, particularly in details of military order of battle.
Increased efforts are being made to fill these gaps..
u. Utilization of US Naval Base, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for
Joint Navy/CIA Intelligence Operations. DOD investigated the
possibility of using Guantanamo as a base of operations for the
collection of national level intelligence, in light of the present
policy limitations and possible policy changes in the future.
v. Establishment of "Patrol Posts" in the Caribbean. In
response to a request from the Chief of Operations, Operation
Mongoose, DOD examined the possibility of establishing "patrol
posts"' in the Caribbean.
w. Psychological Operations: A survey was conducted

psychological operations.j As a result special OSD funds were
made available for Special baseball sportscasts over the base

e. Summary - Our knowledge of Cuban military order of
battle, especially ground order of battle, has dropped off con-
siderably in recent weeks. Changes in unit organization and in
the numbering system as well as the militia nature of the organi-
zation itself make OB material perishable. Until such time as a
definite target date and objective is set making it possible to
inject a sufficient quantity of trained observers into the area with
specific targets, this situation will probably continue.
4. Estimate of the Potential for Military Operations within Cuba -
Should a policy decision be made to militarily intervene in Cuba, the
U.S. could:
a.
With 18 days of preparation, execute a coordinated airborne-
amphibious assault which it is anticipated would gain control of key
military installations and the principal centers of population of Cuba'
within 10 days and result in minimum US and Cuban casualties.
b. Should the situation demand, a piecemeal commitment of
US forces could be made with reaction times approximately as follows:
2 Airborne Divisions
4 Marine BLTS
Following Forces
5 days (para-drop units only)
7 - 8 days
15 - 18 days
(This operation would involve a dangerous element of risk. )
c. In conjunction with either of the actions described in a and b,
above, cover and deception plans have been developed which, if executed,
would result in prepositioning of forces assigned to the invasion of Cuba
and could thereby result in an over-all reaction time of approximately
12 days for a coordinated assault.
d. Air strikes could be conducted against selected targets in
Cuba within 6, 12 or 24 hours; the time dependent upon aircraft
availability and desired intensity of attack.
Air-sea blockade can be initiated within 24 hours with effective-
ness increasing to a complete blockade within approximately 48 hours.
5.
Factors Worth Considering in Deciding on One of the Following Four
Courses of Action for the United States to Follow in Relation to Cuba:
a. Cancel operational plans; treat Cuba as a Bloc nation; protect
Hemisphere from it.

In early April 1964 Eliseo Gomez Fernandez met
with Jose "Pepany Bosch.
Boschlagreed to advance $100,000
and Baban and his associates would advance $2,500 for
expenses.
Julio Lobo Olavarria, a wealty Cuban exile
in New York, subsequently agreed to the terms, provided
that his name was not involved. Accordingly,.
Babun gave

aLready cal and that,
already called its man in Cuba and told him to proceed
as planned and that "their other man" would be heading
for Cuba shortly.
The final comment was "we hope to
have some good news for you between 20 and 25 Mlay."
Lobo planned to fly to Miami on 19 May to arrange
for
the transfer of $100,000 to a safety deposit box, the
keys
to which are to
be held jointly by Cameron and
confidant of Lobo.

The identities of the persons in the Cameron
group and how they plan to proceed with this mission
are not known.
Babun's associates are reluctant to
make any unnecessary queries because they have invested
$2,500 and because Cameron made it fairly clear at the
was involved.
Cameron
re-
vealed during the negotiations that his contact was
police officer in the St. Louis, Missouri, Vice Squad
who was about to retire
and who has numerous connections
in the Mafia.
Cameron implied that "the
other man" in
question
is in Spain.
Cameron knows "that he could"be"
indicted" for conspiracy and that if there is any
treachery on his part, Babun and his associates would
not hesitate to sink his ship, the M/V CAYMAN HOPE.

Babun and Eliseo Gomez had a plan under way to assas-

quick change for the better in the Cuban situation can
be brought about only by the physical elimination of
Fidel Castro and that his elimination is well worth
$150,000.
