Declassify on: OADR JPM

1. Adolph Jay ÁLBRECHT, born 15 June 1926 in New Jersey, is
an industrial advertising copywriter currently residing in
Stockholm, Sweden. The holder of U.S. passport No. D 294080,
issued 18 April 1963 at New York City, Subject served with the
United States Navy from about 1947 to 1955, on active duty for
only two weeks, however. As of November 1963 Subject said, he
was employed by the Andersson and Lembke Advertising Agency
Luntmakargaten 95, Stockholm.

2. On 29 November 1963 Subject, of his own volition,
visited the American Embassy in Stockholm and asked to speak
with the embassy "security officer." He was interviewed by a
representative of this Agency(s) Subject said that a former
girlfriend, Charlotte ABERG (Swedish citizen, born_ca. 1943)
told him that Karl-Erik RIDDERSTRALE (Swedish citizen, born
24 September 1922), while drunk on 15 November 1963, predicted
that within two weeks President KENNEDY would be assassinated
while on a trip among his own people Following the assassination
Charlotte was upset and called ALBRECHT on 27 November 1963 to
inform him of RIDDERSTRALE's statement made while he was visiting
Charlotte and her mother on 15 November. Charlotte described
RIDDERSTRALE as normally quiet and refined and one of her
mother's suitors. According to Subject, RIDDERSTRALE, though
wealthy and a member of Swedish nobility, is a left winger and
strong supporter of Fidel CASTRO.

3. Through Subject, arrangements were made for Charlotte
ABERG to be interviewed at the American Embassy on 4 December 1963.
Charlotte related substantially the same story as did Subject,
with minor contradictions. She said RIDDERSTRALE's comments
were made about ten days before the assassination and that he
had not given a two-week deadline; he merely said, "soon."
She said she knew nothing about RIDDERSTRALE's background.
Charlotte was advised to report the foregoing to Swedish
authorities. Following an interview with Swedish police officials,
Charlotte returned to the American Embassy on 9 December 1963.

He also claims that he received a copy of a proclamation prepared by
members of the FIUR, in Cuba, and was authorized to release it to

and do not believe that the documents he gave me originated in Cuba. I
suspect that another group of exiled Cuban politicians wrote the document
in the US, and are trying to get national publicity in publicity in order to get support.
I have recently heard that Eloy Gutierrez menoyo has been added to the list
of Cabinet appointments. I doubt very much that Gutierrez and Ray would be
fully accepted by the majority of Cubans in exile.

ERNESTO MITRANI aka E. Mitrani, mentioned above, was subsequently
identified as ERNESTO MITRANI LEVY, who in about December, 1959
was employed as an "Auxiliary Consular Clerk" in the Cuban Embassy,
Mexico, D.F. ERNESTO MITRANI LEVY had reportedly been helpful
to anti-CASTRO forces in Mexico.
JOSE ANTONIO PORTUONDO

On October 24, 1960, MITRANI received a telegram recalling
him to Havana, Cuba; however, he did not want to return to Cuba,
and reportedly went to the then Ambassador PORTUONDO, and
explained that he planned on marrying a Mexican girl; that
his father had offerred him employment in Mexico, and for these
reasons he did not want to return to Cuba. PORTUONDO reportedly
counseled MITRANI to write to the Cuban Foreign Office in
avana and explain his problem, which MITRANI reportedly did.
At that time MITRANI was the holder of Cuban Diplomatic passport
No. 480 and also held a regular passport.

MITRANI, reportedly had arrived in Mexico on December 15, 1959;
he was a batchelor at the time of his arrival, and his father

On the basis of this information, we immediately instructed the
Washington Field and New York Offices to institute confidential inquiries with
appropriate Post Office officials to determine the feasibility of covering outgoing
correspondence from the U.S. to the (U.S.S.R.), looking toward picking up a
communication dispatched to the aforementioned address.
:

On January 21, 1958, SAC Powers of the New York Office called
advising that his preliminary inquiries at first disclosed that such coverage
could possibly be effected at LaGuardia Airfielă. Powers stated that he subsequently
received a call from the Chief Post Office Inspector who told him that he would not
be able to make such arrangements and explained that something had happened in
Washington on a similar matter and that Bureau Headquarters should take up the
matter with Post Office Headquarters here in Washington. The Post Office
Inspector said that it did not involve our agency and because of what was going
on in Washington at the present time, he just couldn't do it on his own.

Almost simultaneous with this advice, Mr. James Angleton of CIA
approached our Liaison Agent, (Sam Papich) on a personal basis. He indicated
that if it were known within CIA that he was volunteering this information to the
Bureau, he would lose his job. Mr. Angleton stated it had come to the attention
of CIA, through the Post Office, that we were making inquiries concerning the
coverage of mail to the U.S.S.R), and as a result CIA was expecting to receive
an inquiry in Washington from the FBI. Mr. Angleton then admitted that this
coverage was one of the biggest and most secret operations being conducted by
CIA. He stated the coverage is actual

StoneT
MEMO TO: MR. BOARDMAN
RE: COVERAGE OF MAIL TO THE (U.S. (U.S.S.R.)
and in view of the volume of material being sent from the U.S., their coverage
is an extensive and expensive operation. He indicated that they had to set up an
elaborate array of IBM machines to tally and tabulate the results. In addition
a complicated indexing procedure was involved, as well as complex scientific
examinations of the material. He said two or three hundred CIA employees are
exclusively engaged on various facets of the coverage. Angleton also indicated
that the cost of the operation was well over a million dollars a year, He further
indicated that the coverage has been in existence in excess of a year and he
stated that the sole purpose for the coverage was to identify persons behind the
Iron Curtain who might have some ties in the U.S. and who could be approached
Jin their countries as contacts and sources for CIA. Angleton indicated that CIA
had successfully developed several sources through this means. He stressed
the confidential nature of his information and stated that while other officials of
CIA more directly concerned with the coverage were expecting a visit from the
FBI he was passing this along for our guidance.

It would appear that our inquiries of the Post Office officials in
New York have flushed out a most secret operation of CIA. The question
immediately arises as to whether CIA in effecting this coverage in New York
has invaded our jurisdiction. In this regard, it is believed that they have a
legitimate right in the objectives for which the coverage was set up, namely,
the development of contacts and sources of information behind the Iron Curtain,
and according to Angleton they have had some success: in this regard. At the
same time, there is an internal security objective here in which, because of
our responsibilities, we have a definite interest, namely, the identification of
illegal espionage agents who may be in the United States. While recognizing
this interest, it is not believed that the Bureau should assume this coverage
because of the inherent dangers in the sensitive nature of it, its complexity,
size and expense. It is believed that we can capitalize on this coverage by
pointing out to CIA our internal security objectives and holding them responsible
to share their coverage with us. Of course, we are not interested in the
identities of the numerous persons in this country legitimately corresponding
abroad. The Post Office has indicated there are approximately four thousand
items of correspondence to the U.S.S.R. each day. Angleton said they have not
come up with a microdot or secret message communication as yet.
ACTION:
SECRET
1. On the basis of our inquiries conducted in New York, we are in
a position and should, through Liaison, approach CIA, informing them that it
has been indicated that their Agency has coverage of mail going to the the U.S.S.R U.S.S.R
We should get from them the details of their coverage and explain our interest in
being furnished with the results of the coverage as it might effect internal security
matters

Reference my memo of 1-27-58 advising of the briefing given our Hole. Room
Liaison Agent by CIA representatives on 1-24-58 as to the nature and extent of
CIA coverage of mail going to and coming from(Russia) Our Liaison Agent
determined that CIA began this coverage approximatelý a year and a half ago through
confidential arrangements made with postal authorities. Initially, this coverage
involved photographing of envelopes; these envelopes were not to be opened. The
envelopes were microfilmed and the names and addresses appearing thereon were
indexed with IBM equipment. Several months ago CIA began opening some of this mail,
microfilming the contents and indexing pertinent data therein. Approximately 250,000
names have been indexed by CIA. Examination of certain of this mail for microdots and
secret writing has been made to a limited extent because the volume of mail has been too
humerous for the establishment of a practical system without delaying movement of the
mail. CIA has advised that to date it has not discovered any microdots or secret writing
or information revealing evidence of Soviet intelligence operations in the United States.
CIA has also advised that this program has not reached its full potential, but that its
system of opening mail is rapidly increasing. CIA has expressed a willingness to
furnish us any information obtained from this coverage which we feel would be of
interest to us.

An analysis has been made of CIA capabilities as revealed to the Liaison Agent
and it is believed we should request that CIA furnish us information of the following
types, both that which has been received in the past and that which they will obtain in
the future
Prod
1) All correspondence of a suspicious nature, such as that containing double
talk, et cetera.

2) All correspondence indicating that the Soviets may be utilizing a hostage
situation, i.e., correspondence indicating pressure being exerted on (Soviet citizens who
have close relatives in the U.S. or pressure being exerted on individuals in U.S.

3) Any information appearing in correspondence indicating weaknesses or
dissatisfaction on the part of any Soviet presently in the United States so that the Bureau
might give consideration to feasibility of approaching such individuals for defection or
double agent purposes

re: COVERAGE OF MAIL TO THE (U.S.S.R.)
With regard to the above coverage, it is believed desirable that Liaison make
arrangements for us to review at CIA any material of this nature and we will then
select that which appears to warrant investigation and then make appropriate checks.
This procedure will eliminate. having CIA sending us a bunch of worthless material with
the possible expectation that we will be running out leads for them. It is believed this
arrangement can be worked out with CIA in a proper fashion.

In addition to the above it is believed the following arrangements can be
effected with CIA:

1) Place stops against names and addresses of individuals possibly presently,
engaged in (Soviet espionage to determine if they are in correspondence with U.S.S.R
This would include a check of the back traffic on these individuals also. We would, of
course, make these stops on a highly selective basis.

2) Request CIA to place stops against addresses in Soviet Russia believed by the
Bureau to be mail drops or suspected mail drops. (It should be noted that we already
have placed a stop with CIA against the name and address of K. S. Smirnov, Central
Post Office, Vladimir, U.S.S.R.), which, according to information received from 1-5,
is a drop utilized by (Soviet illegál (Soviet illegal agents all over the world arranging emergency meet
We will, of course, continue to analyze this coverage by CIA to see that we
obtain maximum benefits.

Federal Bureau of Investigation
Attention: Mr. S. J. Pa
XHUNTER Report #1

ا کے
1. The intercept project that has been explained orally to
(Mr. Papich) will be referred to as Project HUNTER in correspondence
between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and this Agency.
:
2. This explanatory memorandum constitutes HUNTER Report
#1. Future disseminations will be numbered consecutively.

3. In submitting possible traces on individuals of interest to
you, reports will be submitted in the following form:

a. If the individual named in the intercept appears to be
identical with the individual of interest to you, you will be furnished
a reproduction of the exterior, and of the contents if the item has been
opened.

b. If the individual named in the intercept is only possibly
identical with the individual of interest to you, only machine run
listing of the items will be submitted. In such cases a reproduction
of the exterior and of the contents, if the item has been opened, will
be available upon request.

4. In order to facilitate your reading of machine run entries,
there follows an explanation of the various types of replies which you
will receive in connection with requests. A hypothetical request for
any addressee in the U.S. of mail from P. KROVAN) whose location
is believed to be in Moscow, might result in the following reply:

This reply has the following meaning:

"A" has no present meaning. All numbers are now preceeded by
"A" only to allow for future additional classifications. None are
presently contemplated.

"57C09'is the date of intercept, namely: "57" is the year. "C"
indicates the month. The code key for months is set out as Enclosure 1.
"05" is the day of the month. Thus, "57C05" is 5 March 1957.

The group "C3325" is our own internal filing number.

The "Name In" entry identifies the correspondent inside the USSR.

The asterisk in "Ref" column indicates that KROVAN sent the lett

The entry in "Loc" (ation) column indicates the area or city inside
the Soviet Union from which the letter was mailed. In this case it was
mailed from the western section of Ukrainian SSR. The code key
used for this column is set out in Enclosure 2. This code key is to
be used for all items prior to 1 January 1958, on which date a 4-place
code was instituted in order to designate more precisely the localities
within the USSR! A copy of this new code is enclosed as Enclosure 3.

The "Name Out" entry identifies the correspondent outside the

The absence of an asterisk in the "Ref" column after EVOSWA
indicates that she is the recipient of the letter.

The entry in the second "Loc" (ation) column indicates the state of
the U. S. (in this case, New Jersey) to which the letter was addressed.
The code key used for this column is set out in Enclosure 4. You
will note that some 3-digit entries indicate large cities within a state,
thus KO indicates New York State and KOA indicates New York City.
For your convenience an alphabetical list of the states with their code
indicator is set out in Enclosure 5.

The absence of an "X" in the "Ban" column means that the letter
was not opened and that only the exterior is recorded in our files.

5. Since the hypothetical request was for mail from(P. from KROVAN
who is believed to be located in Moscow) only the listing as set out
above would be furnished, since it would not appear that Paraskoviya
KROVAN, located in the western section of the (Ukrainian SSR is
identical If in connection with future investigation or information
otherwise available, you may believe that (KROVAN) may be identical
with the individual of interest to you, you need reference only the
HUNTER report number and request the exterior photographs of
item No. A57C05C3325, which will be reproduced from the original
film and made available to you.

6. If the hypothetical request is for any mail from the (Soviet
Union to Rose ESTERSON, who resides in Chicago, the reply might
be as follows:

Name Out

The difference in this listing from that previously illustrated is as follows:

"U" is our internal identifying designator. The first date is the date
of the intercept. The second date is the date of the communication
inside the letter. The "X" under the "Ban" column indicates the letter
was opened. Again this indicator would indicate only a possible identi-
fication since KKB under "Loc" indicates California. In this instance
upon request, identifying the HUNTER report number and referencing
both A57D23U and 57D18 mumbers, the outer envelopes and their con-
tents will be reproduced and furnished to you.

7. Normal service of either of the above requests will be 24 hours.
In an emergency we could service the request in a few minutes.

8. If your first request had been for(KR
or P. KROVAN,
or Paraskoviya KROVAN) located in the western section of the
Ukrainian SSR) you would have initially received the photograph of
the envelope. Likewise, in the second instance, if your request had
3

SECRET
been for ESTERSON, or R. ESTERSON, or Rose ESTERSON located
in Chicago, or Illinois, you would initially have received photographed
copies of the envelope and its contents.

9. In order to insure most efficient servicing of your request,
it is suggested that you submit trace requests as follows: List the
last name first with any known first and given names or initials, and
address including state, city and street, if known. If an exact address
is not known, a probable state or section will be helpful but is not
required. The same would apply to the (USSR) The above should be
listed on duplicate 3 x 5 cards. If only a phonetic name is known,
various combinations of spellings would be appreciated, together
with any other data such as probable address or area. Where an
address is known and there are individuals, other than the subject,
at this address to whom the questioned communication might be
addressed, their names should also be given. For record purposes
and in order to facilitate our answers to your request, would you in
turn number each card as HUNTER Request No.

10. On each request will you also indicate whether the request
is for a one-time check or whether the name should be put on the
Watch List. If the latter, please indicate the duration of the Watch
List, i. e. 30, 60, 90 days, or "until cancelled". If a Watch List is
requested, you should also indicate the treatment desired when a
possible hit is made, i. e. photograph outside only; photograph
outside and contents; photograph outside, contents, and examine for
S/W or microdots. Specifically indicate any Watch List item which
should not be opened. In this connection you may also desire to give:
us a white list of correspondents of interest to you whoare not Watch
List subjects but whose mail should not be opened in the course of
our normal openings for spot-checking for operational or intelligence
information. In some instances you may desire to indicate that you
are to be informed immediately when a hit is made and prior to the
receipt of the letter by the addressee.

II. It is possible to make a special machine run of the names
of all correspondents either addressor, addressee, or both, from
any specific area in the (USSR) to the United States or to any specific
state or city in the U.S., or vice versa. There are various other
combinations that could be run, such as all letters mailed in Florida
either on a specific date or for any given period. If the above-listed
4

SECRET
or any other type of exploratory processing is desired, a presentation
of the problem will enable us to tell you immediately what we can do,
-how long it will take, and the amount of work that is involved. While
this type of service is possible, it does involve a great deal of work
and should be requested in connection with very important cases only.

in your memorandum to Mr. Boardman' dated 2-6-58. That memo pointed out
the willingness of CIA to furnish us any information obtained from this
coverage which we felt would be of interést to us. That memo recommended
that Liaison effect arrangements with CIA so that we could review
information obtained from that coverage...

SFICE
CIA is furnishing us with certain of the results of the
coverage of Soviet mail under the caption "Project Hunter. Each report
received isabeled with a report number, for example, Hunter Report
# 19
:

The reports received are reviewed in the Soume (Soume) Unit. When
the information fails to indicate which Section or Unit 'would have a
logical interest in the report, the names involved will be searched
for identifiable information. Then we can locate no such information,
a case will be opened if deemed warranted. The objectives of those
investigations will be the ide identification of persons of pro-Soviet
sympathies whose dealings with the Russians are of a security or
intelligence interest, the identification of those individuals who
might present logical "hostage" possibilities which could be exploited
by the Soviets and the identification of any (Soviet) individual in the
U.S. who has indicated weakness or dissatisfaction, a situation which
the Bureau might exploit for defection or double agent purposes.

Investigations in the field would include a check of office
indices and logical sources and informants in order to establish the
subject's background, activities, sympathies and the strategic
character of his employment. This could culminate in recommendations
for interview to clarify certain points not established by investigation
and to determine whether the present activities of the subject are
inimical to the best interests of the U.S., provided available infor-
mation does not dictate against such interview and provided the
interview can be conducted without compromising (Bureau Informant 200

reporting of information found in Bufiles on the subject, and
instructions regarding the investigation to be conducted a paragraph
as follows should also be added: "You are being cautioned that infor-
mation obtained from Bureau Informant 200 is not to be disseminated

is the subject or any unauthorized person to become aware that we have-
knowledge of his contact with a person in Russia)"

In those instances where an opened or closed case file an aj FR
person mentioned in a Hunter Report is located at the Bureau, the
Hunter Report will be forwarded to the appropirate Section Chief or
Supervisor for his information and any action he deems necessary. Said
Supervisor might desire to advise the field in the manner-described
above or place a brief, paraphrased version of the Hunter Report into
the subject's main file for information purposes.
RECOMMENDATION:

In view of the extreme sensitivity of this source, the
knowledge of the same is to be confined to a need-to-know basis.
Therefore, within the Domestic Intelligence Division the Section
Chiefs of the Nationalities and Intelligence Section, the Internal
Security Section, and the Subversive Control. Section will be advised

In connection with developments in the case
134-9824, the [SD
captioned "NK 2264-S, (IS-R, Bureau file 134
Director noted "I note more and more we are telling CIA
about our domestic operations and always to our detriment.
I want this trend stopped. H." (A separate memorandum is
being submitted concerning a new development in the afore-
mentioned case).

On 3/15/67, the Liaison Agent met with Richard
Helms, Director, CIA, and took the opportunity to review
the status of relations between FBI and CIA. It was
felt that this was an opportune time to do so in view of
the Director's concern as expressed above.

Prissia
Helms stated that he personally was pleased with
relations between the two Agencies. He stated that sometimes
he is irked or disturbed when people outside and inside of
the Government ask the question "How are you getting along
with the FBI?" He indicated that this question is frequently
asked by members of Congress. Helms stated that he
religiously has followed a practice of lucidly and firmly
advising such people that relations are excellent. He
stated that he personally believed that this was true.

The Liaison Agent commented that working relations
are good, but there was an area which might not be getting
proper attention. The Agent stated that there was reason
to be concerned regarding effective coordination on those
cases which are of interest to both FBI and CIA because there
appeared to be developing an atmosphere where people in both
Agencies felt that there was now wide-open liberty to conduct
operations and activities of a joint nature. The Agent
stated that he wished to emphasize that such an atmosphere
cannot exist and that Mr. Hoover would never condone any
trend in this direction. The Agent commented that work in
this area had to be very efficiently coordinated and that we
in the Bureau were closely scrutinizing) each situation as it
develops where both Agencies had an interest. The Agent
suggested that Mr. Helms might desire to alert appropriate
subordinates in the Agency on this point.

On 3/31/67, the Liaison Agent advised Mr. Leo
Dunn of the change in handling alien interview requests
at FBI Headquarters. (Dunn was advised that the overall
coordination for handling these requests would be handled
by the Bureau's Name Check Section under the coordination
of Special Agent J. W. Brown.

Inasmuch as CIA occasionally makes a telephonic
request when expedite matters are involved, the Liaison
Agent obtained the names of Eugene Young and Becky Vaughn
as the persons who would call Special Agent Brown in the
event an expedite matter is involved. CIA is well aware
that the use of this telephonic request should be held to
a minimum and used only at times when time is of the
essence and the matter is of sufficient importance to

Subject advised that Nina and Edistevens do a lot of entertaining
but he had never attended any of their parties. Subject stated that he
would not trust Nina Stevens as far as he could throw an elephant. Subject
stated that he had no proof but believed Nina to be a Soviet informant.

Subject advised that Aline Mosby was a newspaperwoman in
Schapiro's office. Mosby, during the past year, had been in the hospital
on several occasions and one didn't see too much of her. Subject also
advised that Mosby stuck mostly to the foreign circuit rather than the
Embassy circuit. Subject stated that one of the reasons Mosby was in
the hospital on one occasion was the fact that she had an abortion, accord-
ing to gossip.

Subject stated that another newspaperwoman in Moscow was
Priscilla Johnson. Subject advised that Johnson had the reputation of
being a fairly good reporter and one whom the Soviets kept on a month
to month visa basis. Subject indicated that it was highly possible the
Soviets had attempted to recruit Johnson as she spent a lot of time with
Soviet nationals.

Subject was queried as to whether he had ever made an unauthorized
disclosure of classified information in the Soviet Union, to which he replied
that he had not disclosed classified information as such. He stated that his
cover,, which he had used for the period in between State Department(s)
assignments, was that he was a consultant of the AEC, particularly to
the Joint Atomic Energy Intelligence Committee, composed of AEC, CIA,
State, NSA, Joint Chiefs, and the Armed Services. Subject stated that
he had indicated to individuals, when questioned, that he had done economic
research and analysis in the Soviet field and that he had done this ever
since he had first become a State Department employee. Subject stated
that among others he had discussed this with Ray Hutchins, his counter-
part in the British Embassy.(5)

Subject was asked for his itinerary on his return trip to the United
States. Subject stated that he had long planned to come home via the Far
East and it was a well publicized plan. He stated that when he left Moscow
he stayed over in Delhi for a week to see if there were any objections from
Headquarters as to his itinerary. He stated that when he received no in-
structions to the contrary, he returned to the United States via his previously
announced plans and the differences in fares being borne by him.

Cuban Exile Activities

On January 28, 1960, PSI MIGUEL ANDRES DE LEON ROJAS
reported that responsible Cuban exile groups in Mexico City and
the United States, who have supported Dr. EMILIO NUNEZ PORTUONDO,
are convinced that General JOSE ELEUTERIO PEDRAZA CABRERA, who
commands a group of Cuban military exiles in the Dominican
Republic; would not be a wise selection as the military leader
of the attempt to overthrow the CASTRO government. The PSI
further advised that these Cuban exile groups believe that
PEDRO LUIS DIAZ LANZ, former Chief of the Cuban Air Force,
would be a much better military leader. 

The PSI also advised that information received from
sources within Cuba reflected that FIDEL CASTRO had prepared a
decree ordering the United States to vacate the Guantanamo
Naval Base. According to this information, the decree was
originally prepared in late November, 1959, but had not yet
been signed for issuance. (

The PSI further reported that he had heard reports in
Miami, Florida, of an invasion attempt which allegedly would
be made by supporters of ROLANDO MASFERRER, a Cuban exile who
resides in Miami. The PSI stated that MASFERRER, ROBERTO
FERNANDEZ MIRANDA, NORMAN ROTHMAN, and their associates form a
group which is not regarded in a favorable light by responsible
Cuban exiles or by responsible elements within Cuba. The PSI
stated that from the information available to him in Miami he
doubted very much that MASFERRER would be able to make an
attempt at invading Cuba or, if an attempt were made, that it
would be successful.

Nicaragua

PSI DE LEON also advised on January 28 that he had
freceived information from within Cuba that ERNESTO "CHE"
GUEVARA has not abandoned his project to utilize pro-Communist
Nicaraguan exiles and "Cuban "volunteers" in an attempt to
invade Nicaragua. This source advised that approximately 400
guerrillas have been trained to make up the invasion force.
The PSI stated he had received no information as to the timing
of such an attempt, but expressed doubt that it would occur in
the immediate future in view of the concern of the Cuban Govern-
ment over a possible early invasion attempt by Cuban exiles.

age and is disposed to follow an international policy that
will not only benefit Mexico but its sister Latin American
countries who are bound together not only by historical ties
but by the same economic and social conditions and identical
perspectives. In apparent reference to DAVID ALFARO SIQUEIROS,
leading PCM figure, he stated that some people, who are unable
to understand national and international politics although
they expound them daily, have been critical of President LOPEZ
MATEOS trip. During the course of the President's trip
SIQUEIROS made a statement to the press wherein he criticized
the President for not accepting a bid to visit Cuba and stated
that President LOPEZ MATEOS was merely laying the ground work
for a subsequent visit by President EISENHOWER. LOMBARDO was
critical of President LOPEZ MATEOS in certain respects,
particularly in connection with the imprisonment of the
railroad strike agitators and PCM and POCM leaders.

ACTION TAKEN: None. Will be disseminated in the
next report on the PP.

SOVIET INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES

"VALENTIN," the new Soviet principal of MEX-87 pointed to
VALENTIN VASILEVICH BAKULIN, a Soviet Embassy employee who

shown to MEX 87 who immediately and positively identified
him as his principal "VALENTIN.
On January 11) 1960, MEX 87 returned to Mexico City
from a trip to Los Angeles. He thereafter kepta prearranged
meeting with BAKULIN on January 28, 1960, and turned over to

1960. Contrary to the usual custom, this message was typed
instead of being on undeveloped 35 mm. film. The Soviets (S)
inquired how and where LA 4199-S keeps the notes of his
observations_and the newspaper clippings, among what type of
people does the the Los Angeles informant initiate his contacts,
what his expenses have been, the manner in which the data on
the displacement of a ship seen by the informants) was obtained s
the intensity of traffic noted in the vicinity of the places CSD
Visited, the possibility of taking photographs, the security

questions posed in the prior Soviet message.

It is noted that CUBELA is a Cuban Government
official whose desire to defect was made known by MM 761-S
in June, 1962. (Thereafter, CIA apparently made contact
with CUBELA in Europe through (CARLOS TEPEDINO, 9819 64th
Avenue, Rego Park, Queens, New York, a Cuban exile and (U)
long-time friend of MM 761-S, who frequently travels in
Europe) (U).

MM 761-S advised that on July 15, 1964, he was
visited by CARLOS TEPEDINO, at which time he confided
certain information concerning CUBELA. He cautioned the
informant to say nothing concerning their conversation
which would permit the information to reach CIA or any
other source through which it might become public, inas-
much as to do so might result in the death of persons in
Cuba, as well as (TEPEDINO himself)(U).

(TEPEDINO) thereupon confided that he has been (U)
acting as the contact man between CIA and CUBELA. CUBELA
is also in contact with the Cuban Ambassador in Paris
named CARRILLO, who reportedly is anti-CASTRO. (CARRILLO (S)
has been assisting both CUBELA and (TEPEDINO)(U).

According to (TEPEDINO, CUBELLA has been constantly (U)
complaining to him that CIA refuses to furnish him with
certain necessary equipment with which he could take some

effective action in Cuba. According to (TEPEDINO, CUBELA (U)
desires some sort of compact equipment with which he can
possibly eliminate CASTRO; however, CIA keeps offering
him only large, bulky, unserviceable material.

According to (TEPEDINO) there is now under discussion (U)
some plan to kill FIDEL CASTRO, in which CUBELA will figure.
CIA allegedly was formerly in favor of such a plan; however,
inasmuch as Attorney General ROBERT KENNEDY would have no
part of it, it was shelved. Now the plan has allegedly been
brought up again for consideration. President JOHNSON
allegedly is aware of it, and has not ruled against it.
If set in motion, it will be scheduled to occur sometime
before the elections in November.

(TEPEDINO) told the informant he has not been able(U)
to learn much more concerning this plan, other than that
CUBELA is supposed to participate, that it is to be
accomplished by men in Cuba, and possibly someone from
Europe.

The informant advised (TEPEDINO) did not specifically(U)
indicate how he had acquired this information; however, the
informant presumed from his manner of speaking that he had
obtained it from CUBELA.

The above is for the information of the Bureau,
and is not being submitted in form suitable for dissemination
since both (TEPEDINO) and CUBELA are apparently of operational (U)
interest to CIA. Dissemination would also lead to the
disclosure of MM 761-S. Although questioned closely,
MM 761-S was not able to furnish any further details.

At the meeting, Fernandez suggested that
a committee be formed and efforts made to have

that the discussion concerning political prisoners
could be expanded to include a discussion of
differences between Cuba and the United States.

would be timely, inasmuch as it appears that Fidel
Castro is not completely satisfied with Cuba's
relations with the Soviet Union. If the discuss-

LINSISTING THAT CASTRO'S OVERTHROW WAS TO BE ACHIEVED BY INTERNAL
RESISTANCE AND THIS HAD ALREADY STARTED.

2. THE MRP WAS ORGANIZED THROUGHOUT THE ISLAND AND SUPPORTED
BY ALL CLASSES OF THE POPULATION. IT HAD MEMBERS IN ALL 33
TRADE UNIONS, THE G-2, MILITIA AND THROUGHOUT THE ADMINISTRATION.
RAY ESTIMATED 80 PERCENT OF POPULATION WERE OPPOSED TO CASTRO,

3. THE MRP WAS PRESENTLY SHORT OF ARMS AND EXPLOSIVES BUT THE
POSITION WAS IMPROVING (A MILITIA CAPTAIN WAS RECENTLY
SENTENCED TO 30 YEARS IN PRISON FOR PASSING ARMS TO THE MRP).
NO HELP WHATSOEVER HAD BEEN RECEIVED BY THE INTERNAL RESISTANCE
FROM THE "SOURCES IN THE UNITED STATES, WHO PROVIDED SUPPORT
FOR THE INVASION". THESE SOURCES WERE STILL THINKING
INEFFECTUALLY IN TERMS OF A FURTHER INVASION.

4. THE GENERAL ATTITUDE OF THE RESISTANCE IN CUBA TOWARDS
THE EXILES WAS ONE OF INDIFFERENCE MOUNTING TO CONTEMPT FOR
SPECIFIC MOVES SUCH AS THE PROPOSED PROMOTION OF A CUBAN GOVT
IN EXILE. WHAT THE RESISTANCE WANTED WAS FUNDS AND THE RETURN,
BY INFILTRATION, OF TRAINED EXILES, PARTICULARLY COMMUNICATION
EXPERTS.

5. ON THE TIMING OF CASTRO'S OVERTHROW, RAY SAID CASTRO WOULD
NOT LAST ANOTHER YEAR. HE ADDED THAT THE SITUATION IN CUBA:
IMMEDIATELY AFTER CASTRO'S DOWNFALL, WOULD BE DANGEROUS AND COULD
DEVELOP INTO A CIVIL WAR.

location.

Attache at the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City and connected
with Cuban Intelligence

having been introduced to him by RAUL ROA, Cuban Minister
of Foreign Relations, in 1964. ABREU reportedly is in charge
of dealing with Cuban exile groups and Cuban guerrilla groups
and more specifically, has been in contact with ROBLEJO
since he, ABREU is handling the matter of Cuban political
prisoners. In addition, ABREU since he is unable to travel 
to Miami, has requested ALONSO to come to Mexico or to
converse with NICOLAS RODRIGUEZ AZTARAEN, attached to the
Cuban Mission to the United Nations in New York City in 
connection with this matter.

BETANCOURT indicated that he had been the General Coordinator of the 30th of November anti-Castro organization in Cuba during 1959, 1960 and the first part of 1961. He arrived in the United States at Miami on June 29, 1961, via small boat. Upon his arrival in the United States, he assumed leadership of the 30th of November movement in Miami unțil approximately October, 1962, when he entered the U. S. Army under the Cuban recruitment program at Fort Jackson, S. C. Subsequent to this, he has been affiliated with the 30th of November movement in Chicago for approximately two years, 1963-1965, and in Miami, 1965 to date.

BETANCOURT is currently employed as a security guard for the National Patrol Detective Agency and the National Industrial Security Corporation (affiliates), 590 S. W.27th Avenue, Miami, Florida. In connection with this employment, he is a guard at the Cuban Refugee Processing Center of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) three days a week. The Processing Center is located in Buildings T-90 and T-94 which are utilized by the U. S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) in processing, fingerprinting and photographing Cuban refugees upon their arrival in the United States. CIA (under the guise of INS interviewers interrogates (5)
these arrivals at this location). (5)

BETANCOURT related he met ROBLEJO around the first of January, 1967, when ROBLEJO reportedly returned from Mexico City where he had been attempting to seek the release of Cuban political prisoners in Cuba. He met ROBLEJO through ANGEL ESTEVEZ, a coworker of BETANCOURT at the Hotel Fontainebleau Awhere both were employed as waiters at that time. At the request of ESTEVEZ, BETANCOURT furnished ROBLEJO a table gratis at the Frank Sinatra show at the Fontainebleau Hotel, for which ROBLEJO was apparently grateful. As a result of this, ROBLEJO sought BETANCOURT's assistance in attempting to obtain the release of political prisoners and recently BETANCOURT was made a member of the Executive Committee of the CPLLC.

In this connection, BETANCOURT accompanied ROBLEJO to San Juan, Puerto Rico, the first week of June, 1967. BETANCOURT by this time had the impression ROBLEJO was actually anti-United States and he considered ROBLEJO a "leftist-socialist." While in Puerto Rico, they met with MANOLO RAY and RUFO LOPEZ FRESQUET. ROBLEJO discussed the possibility of RAY and LOPEZ FRESQUET becoming active'in seeking the release of Cuban political prisoners. However, no definite agreement or conclusion was reached.
