# SECRET TO FOREIGN DISSEMC. GARCEEAN explained that on 4 August he accompanied his Washington delegate, Gerardo MORA, to the home of Col. KELLY, who, according to MORA, has wise military contacts in Washington because of his position in the pentagon. GARCEEAN had prepared a memorandum which he left with KELLY, who was to try to arrange an interview with Secretary, MCNAMARA for GARCEEAN. When GARCEEAN changed his mind about the proposed meeting with Secretary, MCNAMARA, who would probably not receive him anyway because of pressing problems in Vietnam, he returned to the KELLY home on 8 August to request return of his memorandum. He was received by Blanco Ross, who told him that Francisco AGUIRRE had waited to see him but had to leave. She then told GARCEEAN about her mission for AGUIRRE for which she was especially suited because of her relationship to Mrs. Tchite “AURORA” and because her husband is a U.S. Colonel, whose status would place her above suspicion.3. No additional information is available to this office concerning Blanco Rosa MAYOBAS.4. Files of this office identify one Gerardo MORA, of Cuban origin, as a lawyer employed at the CIA in Washington, D.C.5.
