# 2025 RELEASE UNDER THE PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992## SECRETNO FOREIGN DISSEM/NO DISSEM ABROADB-37866 MAR 1973SUBJECT: Travel from Algiers1.  A sensitive and reliable source reported on 26 February 1973 that the travel documents (Titres de Voyage) requested from the Algerian Government by William HOLDER (Subject of your New York Field Office File 164-694) are intended for HOLDER himself, Melvin MCNAIR (Bureau File Number 157-26560), Jean MCNAIR (Bureau File Number 157-26561), Larry BURGESS, also known as George Edward WRIGHT (Bureau File Number 157-26562), Joyce BURGESS (Bureau File Number 157-26563), George BROWN (Bureau File Number 157-26564), Jean Catherine KERKOW (Subject of your New York Field Office File 164-694), and Eldridge CLEAVER.2.  Source speculates that CLEAVER's name was included with the others desiring travel documents in order to convince certain Algerian authorities that CLEAVER, who departed in early February 1973, was still in Algiers. Although Source does not know when the documents will be issued, he believes that the Government will do so.3.  Both Melvin MCNAIR and George BROWN were arrested by the Algerian police on separate charges of possession of handguns. BROWN was found to be carrying a loaded revolver, and MCNAIR had given an Algerian youth two pistols for safekeeping. One of the pistols was of Chinese manufacture. Neither BROWN nor MCNAIR were kept under arrest for any length of time.4.  Source has been unable to provide any additional information regarding the destination of above mentioned individuals.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORDSUBJECT: Contact Report of Meetings with MPTROIKA-7 in New York City on 14 February and in Virginia on 17-18 February 19721. This memorandum covers recent meetings with MPTROIKA-7 in New York City and in the Northern Virginia area. The meetings were held under secure conditions and there were no security incidents noted.2. Operational:a. United States - China Friendship Association (USCFA) Study Group: M-7's persistent efforts to locate and join a pro-Mao study group finally paid off. The manager of the China Bookstore finally broke down under M-7's campaign and put her in touch with a local USCFA study group under the leadership of Mrs. Susan Warren, aka Frank. M-7 has attended one session and, based on her initial observation, provided the assessment of Mrs. Warren attached hereto at the undersigned's request. M-7 believes she has hit it off with Mrs. Warren because of her understanding of dialectics (thanks to Andy Ness's tutoring) and, consequently, she was instructed to attempt to develop a social-business relationship with her. With respect to the other members of the study group, M-7 claims that the situation, to date, has not been conducive to ferreting out the identities of these individuals, but that she hopes that as the group continues to meet, some rapport will be established with her classmates.b. New School and language instruction: M-7 has formally enrolled at the Graduate Faculty of the New School for Social Research in a course entitled "Comparative Legal Systems," which studies the theories, institutions, concepts, customs and which purports to analyze and compare the law and the administration of law in selected countries, included China, Japan, Vietnam, Germany, the U.S. and the Soviet Union. M-7 will also enroll in a French language instruction course in the near future.

c. Ramparts' Tours - New York Media Workshop's Womens' Tour: Acting on a suggestion proposed by Mr. Jason Horn, CI/SO, the undersigned raised the subject of the Women's Tour which is scheduled to visit London, Paris (where they will meet the DRV peace delegation) and Rome from 27 May - 25 June 1972 with M-7 and instructed her to attempt to determine the interest in, and likely composition of, the New York group and explore the possibility of joining such a group and explore the possibility of joining such a group. M-7's first reaction to the tour was that the cost ($699, which price includes airfare, trains, hotels, etc.) was too high. It was explained to her that the cost factor should not deter her from following through. It was then that M-7 voiced some concern that the timing of the tour may interfere with her own PCS departure (we had been talking in terms of mid-May or June 1972 up to this point). It was made clear to her that no fixed date has been established as yet for her PCS departure and that the aforementioned tour may well prove to be of operational interest, e.g. meeting the DRV delegation and continuing the staging process prior to her actual departure. M-7 said that she understood and would look into the matter. She did not believe she would have any difficulty in covering for funds should she find herself included on the tour.d. South East Asia Reports (SEAR): M-7 produced a copy of the first issue of SEAR, a bi-weekly newsletter put out by the New York University Students Mobilization Committee, Box 59, Loeb Student Center, 566 LaGuardia Place, N.Y.C. 10003. M-7 is listed as one of five contributing staff members on the back page of this mimeographed new left publication. A copy of this first issue is attached hereto. One of M-7's articles will appear in a subsequent issue of SEAR.e. JBMINIMUM Testing and Training: As part of M-7's covert training and assessment in anticipation of her foreign assignment, the undersigned arranged for two members of the Psychological Assessment Branch, TSD (Messrs. DeMarco. and Saunders) to administer a JBMINIMUM test to her and to brief her in the use and value of the JBMINIMUM test in a field situation. This training and briefing took place on 18 February in a safehouse in N. Arlington, Va. (A copy of the JBMINIMUM assessment on M-7 will be made a matter of record in her official dossier). M-7 was introduced as "Miss Julie" to members of the PAB/TSD for purpose of this test and briefing. (Mr. Andy Ness devoted the afternoon of 18 February with M-7 for the purpose of continuing her training2

# SECRETin dialectics, which she has found to be particularly useful in understanding the study group discussion and to permit her participation.)## 2. Administrative:a. Salary and Operational Advances. The undersigned paid M-7 her January salary on a $500 advance on 17 February 1972. She also received a $300 advance on 14 February 1972. These advances were necessary because of the expenses M-7 had incurred in enrolling at the New School and to pay for her French lessons. (One of the reasons M-7 was brought down to the Washington area was to straighten out a problem she was having with her accounting. Hopefully, she is now convinced that she had been receiving all that was due her.)b. Tax Administration and Notification of Personnel Action. M-7 was notified of the change in the tax assessment and of the adjustments in her salary due to the legislative pay increase and the withholding of premiums for hospitalization.## 3. Actions to be taken.a. M-7's assignment abroad. Per the undersigned's discussions with Messrs. Flitcroft and Cornish, a telepouch dispatch will be sent to Bangkok Station proposing M-7's assignment to Bangkok, primarily for housekeeping purposes, but with a regional mission to perform. (The undersigned is presently working on this message.)b. Concelament device. M-7 requested a concealment device for her microdot viewer which the undersigned will attempt to obtain from TSD. Additionally, the undersigned will request TSD to provide concealment devices for M-7's general use as a storage for papers and funds.![signature]William E. GavaghenFE/OPSAttachmentsAs stated

14-0000017 February 1972SUBJECT: Mrs. Susan Warren aka Susan FrankSusan is a tough cookie. One of her most outstanding features is a complete lack of interest - in anyone but herself. When leading a China study class this is her method: first she asks a question, from her notes, such as "What do you think Mao meant when he said this..." Then she clamly listens to what the class thinks Mao menat. When everyone finishes Susan begins to tell exactly what he meant to say. Through the evening her attitude remains the same "I've been here before and said this before." There is no enthusiasm in her that I could see.Susan is an expert on China. I know because she told me. She told everyone else too within the first eight minutes of class. "Well, I spoke to those soldiers in Yunan who fired on those peasants..." But she really didn't have to advertize her knowledge because it is very apparent. She has a solid understanding of Chinese political line and can smoothly defend Chinese history.As far as the woman herself is concerned she has not as much money as she would like. I believe she wants to dress in 'style.' Now, although dressing conservatively she still developes an eye for color and she would clearly be receptive to intelligent male attention. She has a nice figure and is aware of it.Perhaps the clue which best typifies Susan's personality is her voice. It is deep, slow, even and artificially cultured. For example, "r's" become "d" in "veddy" or "Amedica".Her hand movements when she speaks are measured and deliberate. While listening she fidgits a little but not much.Two noticible features are her thumbnails. Both are filed almost to points, are very thick and yellowish-moreso than other nails.While she is concerned with herself I believe she would follow someone who either interested her or gently
[104-10063-10438.pdf — page 5]
led her. There is a part of her normally conservative character that would like to break away and try new things (altho' not new ideas in politics.)One last remark, she is a straightforward person; will look you in the eye, will tell someone not to speak too long if she wants to move on to something else.These observations were made after one meeting in a study class and for a few minutes before class.

# SECRET27 November 1967MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD:SUBJECT: BEHEIREN and the Four U.S. Navy Deserters## A. Origin and Development of BEHEIREN.1. Founding: BEHEIREN (Japan "Peace for Vietnam" Committee) was organized in April 1965, nominally as a politically independent group of intellectuals and cultured persons whose purpose was "to help restore peace in Vietnam." Actually, it is a loosely organized group of ex-JCP members, progressive intellectuals, leftist cultured persons, and leftwing students banded together in the name of opposition to the Vietnam war by two common denominators, dedicated anti-Americanism and refusal to be dominated or controlled by the orthodox Japan Communist Party.2. Hard-Core Secretariat: The real force behind the organization of BEHEIREN, right from the beginning to the present, has been a brilliant Communist named YOSHIKAWA Yuichi, whose conspiratorial organizational skills have been perhaps the most indispensible ingredients in BEHEIREN's development. YOSHIKAWA was expelled from Tokyo University for his role as a ZENGAKUREN leader in the 1960 U.S./Japan Security Treaty riots. He then went into fulltime JCP mass movement professional work, becoming the Secretariat official in charge of international relations for the Japan Peace Committee. YOSHIKAWA broke with the JCP in late 1964, following the rupture in relations between the JCP and CPSU in May that year. The inspiration for BEHEIREN springs in large measure from YOSHIKAWA's personal desire to use his organizational talents in countering the JCP and its Japan Peace Committee. YOSHIKAWA, in addition to being a well qualified English linguist himself, years ago surrounded himself with a small following of similarly qualified lieutenants, whom he brought along into BEREIREN to give him the necessary depth and experience to run this new organization. YOSHIKAWA functions as BEHEIREN's Secretary General
