# SECRETSECURITY INFORMATION25 January 1952MEMORANDUM FOR: THE RECORDSUBJECT: Backstopping of Cover by the Research Institute of America1. Pursuant to conversations between Mr. *Rose* and Mr. *Engels* of CIA/ope and Mr. Travis of 00/Contacts, an appointment was made for Mr. *Rose* to see Mr. Leo Cherne, Executive Secretary of the Research Institute of America, 292 Madison Avenue, New York City, to explore the willingness of Mr. Cherne to backstop the cover story of a *proposed agent in training*. The appointment was made, and kept, for Wednesday morning, 23 January 1952 in New York City in the presence of Mr. Clark of the New York branch of the Contacts Division.2. The proposed story of the *agent* in question, who had bein employed on the economic research side of ECA specializing in *Italy*, was that he wished to resign from ECA and take up an offer to be extended to him in civilian employment. Since the Research Institute of America ssamed to fit in naturally with his background and activities in ECA, Mr. Cherne was asked:a. If he would backstop the *agent's* story that he was quitting ECA to take employment with the Pesearch Institute of America during his three months period of *training with CIA*, andb. Whether he would in fact *employ the agent* and send him as a representative of the Institute to *Italy* at the conclusion of his period of training.Mr. Cherne replied that unfortunately the latter was impossible inasmuch as his company did not send personnel overseas in any capacity. As regards the immediate backstopping of the *agent's* story, however, Mr. Cherne said that he would be happy to oblige for a period of training only, to wit, three months, after which other cover would have to be sought. Mr. Cherne requested that he be furnished at an early date with more complete information as to what was to be expected of him in his role as a backstop and further stated that he would like to meet the *agent* personally as soon as could be arranged. This has been communicated to Mr. *Engels*, the case officer, who will oblige at the earliest opportunity.3. This case

Barron, Chairman of the Board, Gillette Safety Razor Company, and Mr. John E. Toulmin, Senior Vice President of the First National Bank of Boston, at their convenience on Wednesday May 21, 1952. The purpose of the visit is to explore the willingness of these gentlemen to act as ostensible donors of funds to support a current operation.2.  This will also confirm Mr. Rose's request that the New York City field office of the Contact Division/00 arrange an appointment for Mr. Rose to see lar. Leo Cherne, President of the Research Institute of America at Ar. Cherne's convenience on Thursday May 22, 1952. Mr. Cherne, who has for some time been backstopping the activities of an agent in this country, has apparently expressed willingness to provide cover for this agent abroad. The purpose of the interview is to discuss more fully Mr. Cherne's proposal. Cover Division would be happy to have an 00 field office representative present to insure continuity.3.  As a result of the above requests, Mr. Barron found to his regret that he was unable to cooperate with the Agency at the present time. Mr. Toulmin, on the other hand, was most cooperative. Mr. Cherne, unfortunately, was out of town. The New York field office has been asked to try to arrange a meeting with Mr. Cherne, as outlined above, for Wednesday afternoon, June 4, 1952.# SECRETSecurity Information
