The three-months' period during which AMWORLD received aid amounting to $13,000.00 ended with the month of August 1965. According to AMWORLD-2, AMBIDDY-1 covered the AMWORLD payroll, which amounted to $18,000.00 for the period, with the above aid money to which he added the sum of $6,000.00 which he received from the sale of equipment from the camps in Central America.3.  Iden is in charge of the warehouse in Miami where the AMWORLD equipment brought back from the camps, such as arms, radios, tape recorders, medical supplies, etc., is stored. AMBIDDY-1 believes that this equipment in the warehouse has a sale value of $250,000.00. Iden, however, believes the sale of the equipment will not bring in more than $15,000.00. Because of the low price he believes he would receive, Idon has refused to sell the equipment for fear AMBIDDY-1 will think he has been stealing money. Iden informed AMWORLD-3 that things are disappearing daily from the warehouse since several members of AMWORLD have access to the place. Several tape recorders and one piece of equipment worth $2,500.00 have already disappeared. The medical supplies are spoiling because of the haphazard way in which they are being stored.4.  AMWORLD-3 has suggested to AMBIDDY-1 that be return all the equipment to the people who supplied it, accept at least fifty percent reduction is its value, and ask that payment forAttachment:Iden, USCGROUP 1Excluded from automatic downgrading and declassification201-267437DATE TYPED: 30 Sep 65DATE DISPATCHED: OCT 7-1965Distribution:3 - WH/C, w/att.CROSS REFERENCE TO: COPYDISPATCH SYMBOL AND NUMBER: UFGA-33356HEADQUARTERS FILE NUMBER: 19-124-27/3CLASSIFICATION: SECRET

AMBIDDY-1 is planning to make some changes in his propaganda activities. He is considering a radio broadcast through stations in PEPRIME which can be heard in PERUMEN. He also wants to publish a high-level theoretical magazine which will be distributed exclusively to opinion makers on the continent, the press, universities, and the diplomatic corps. All these plans hinge on AMBIDDY-1's receiving aid. According to AMWORLD-2, AMBIDDY-1 is expecting to receive aid next month.Philip G. KLMARD

According to AMOT Report DD-1619 of 27 September 1965, AMOT-246 held a conversation on 22 September with AMWORLD-2 in which he learned the following.2. On the morning of 21 September 1965, AMBIDDY-1 held a meeting with a group of his friends and followers to notify them that he had been notified by his "contact" that AMWORLD aid would cease at the beginning of October.3. AMBIDDY-1 also notified Iden A that he should inform the persons who take part in the radio program that the program will not be broadcast after 1 October and therefore, their employment and salaries will cease. This will affect Iden A, AMRAZOR-1, Iden B, and AMOT-246.4. AMBIDDY-1 planned to leave for Washington, D. C. on 22 September 1965 in order to meet with Iden C and discuss the handing over to Iden C of two hundred tons of arms which AMBIDDY-1 is holding at Iden D. AMBIDEY-1 decided to take this action in order to avoid having to pay the salaries of the seven men of AMWORLD in Nicaragua who each receive $300.00 per month.5. AMBIDDY-1 is thinking of selling a barge for the sum of $20,000 and the rest of the equipment in storage in Miami for the sum of $19,000. With this, AMBIDDY-1 hopes to pay off all his debts, plus the salaries of the personnel. ANBIDDY-1 told AMWORLD-2 that he has only $18000 in the bank.

On 5 September 1965, AMOT-246 held a conversation with AMWORLD-3 in which he learned the following information concerning the activities of AMBIDDY-1, reported in AMOT Report DD-1599 of 10 September 1965. AMWORLD-3 obtained most of his information on AMBIDDY-1 from a friend, Iden A, who is closely linked with AMBIDDY-1 in matters regarding the sale of the military equipment AMWORLD had in Latin America. In addition, some data was given to AMWORLD-3 personally by AMBIDDY-1, who would like to get AMWORLD-3 on his side again. AMBIDDY-1 introduced Iden A to his contacts in KUBARK, "and plans to introduce AMWORLD-2 to them in the near future. AMBIDDY-1 says he is doing this because of his confidence in both AMWORLD-3 and Iden A.2.  According to AMWORLD-3, AMBIDDY-1 has some $80,000.00 at present, although AMBIDDY-1 told Iden B that he only had $30,000.00 at his disposal. AMBIDDY-1 followed the advice of his secretary, Iden C, his wife, and others in investing money in the following businesses:a. A printing establishment costing $20,000.00.b. A factory, about which the Source had no details.c. A "farm" where he is thinking of raising poultry and grain for which he paid $1,000.00 down and is paying $300.00 a month on the mortgage.3.  AMBIDDY-1 received notice from his "contacts" of the suspension of further aid in the presence of Iden A, who got the impression that it would be very difficult for AMBINDY-1 to receive aid again.

He has stopped having his   radio crograss recorded by America Production in order to save   $250.00 рег sonth. If his present financial condition continues,   it is possible that next month be will also suspend his hour radio   program "Trident."5. However, despite the suspension of aid, AMBIDDT-1 is   planning to maintain one radio progran and to carry on other   propaganda activities following new guide lines. Among the plans   be bas in wind is the publication of a "high-level theoretical"   review. AMBIDDY-1 is thinking of presenting this latter plan to   his "contacts."Philip G. KLMARD

A-1 told me he had followed up with his delegates in Costa Rica and got some details on his former vague report about a Costa Rican official name ZUNIGA who was anti-American and Communist-influenced. The man's name is Eduardo Zuñiga, a high official of the Instituto Nacional de Vivienda Urbana (INVU), in which there is a Communist cell directed by Architects Pablo JENKINS and Cano ROJAS.2. ZUNIGA has a girl friend named Thelma (lnu), whose family is Communist. Her father is a Communist and a member of the INVU cell mentioned above. He is chauffer for Macho CARAZO who is running for Deputy under the PLN and is very close to Daniel ODUBER.![signature of Carl Jenkins]Carl JenkinsXARZ 2326920 Sept. 1965201-267437
