# SECRETTO: Chief FE (Attn: Chief SP)FROM: Chief of Missi 4, FrankfurtSUBJECT: GENERAL - REDSOX/AEPARREFERENCE: Assistance to Soviet Escapees Through USEPFILE: 81-309721.  In a recent conversation with Mr. Richard R. Brown, OFCEP, Frankfurt, he read several portions of a letter which he had just received from his Washington headquarters directing some fairly strong criticism to the German country unit in its handling of the program. Needless to say, Brown was considerably upset since it appears that much of the criticism stemmed from KUDARK. It was his impression that our conversations of last November and December and the remedial action taken by CFC at that time relative to the USEP German unit's handling of the Soviet program had indicated his willing-ness to do anything possible to correct deficiencies and to forestall just such criticism. In paragraph 1 of the reference we indicated that satisfactory answers to our questions had been received. In this connection we enclose as Attachment A a copy of Brown's written answers to our specific questions. (Attachment B is a criteria for USEP Assistance.)2.  In regard to the criticism leveled at Brown and the German unit by the Commanist Kolo office, the following pertinent excerpts were passed to the undersigned:> "At the third meeting a great deal of stress was laid on the question of the special interest cases of other Government agencies. I was able to dwell at some length on the special handling that we have given special interest cases, and to cite chapter and verse of our report to the OPD. Nonetheless,It was felt that we should very greatly intensify our efforts in this respect. It is clearly considered that the disposal of special interest cases on a very high priority basis warrants unusual effort, procedures, and expense on the part of the Program. Both Army and (KUDARK) attach very great importance to this, and deep dissatisfaction was expressed with the manner in which the present procedures are being implemented by the Program. In Germany, specifically, it was felt that the Program has been reluctant to associate itself or its contractors with cases which present apparent insuperable difficulties in connection with the cases."
[104-10171-10138.pdf — page 41]
SECRETvoluntary agencies, the Program should find other means through other contractors, or through its own offices, of arranging disposal on a *top priori* basis. I would suggest that the Program was better geared to such an effort than any other U.S. Government program, and that one of its most important yardsticks of its effectiveness must be its capacity to handle this type of case. In brief, should we comprehend that we have perhaps been inelastic in our approach to this problem and predisposed to keep a simon-pure operation at all costs."I want to point out one point. ...two or three OCB meetings..." Two members otherWashington recently, there has been severe criticism of the manner in which eligibility criteria are being applied by the German country unit. Criticism has been received on three occasions from (WHCAM?), and is also included in the State Department report to the OCB Group. The charge is made that the German country unit has been unnecessarily legalistic, has adopted overly restrictive manners, and was hypertechnical. The statement was made that in the OCB meeting that the all-important Soviet escapees, cases had been turned down for the grounds of voluntary repatriation. Though the escapees never got near Berlin. The statement was also made that more than Soviets, only diplomatic and military defectees had been granted eligibility."3. We are assured by Brown and other responsible officials that the final charge made above relating to diplomatic and military defectees is entirely erroneous and this information is borne out by our own investigation. In the past, eligibility was withheld from certain *voluntary repatriates* who had in fact, not no further than Berlin on the trek back to the USSR who later returned to West Germany. However, we are assured that this is no longer necessarily true and that each case is judged individually.4. Finally, the German Mission feels that remains flat statement that any or all assistance can be rendered to any escapee without regard to past disqualification, provided KUBAIK will designate them to receive such assistance, is evidence of his and his units desire to cooperate wholeheartedly. We wish to assure Headquarters that the field is now of the opinion that USREP is making a sincere and energetic effort to carry out a most difficult task. We have no complaints at the present time as to the handling of that part of the program which touches KUBAIK interests. It will be appreciated if this can be made clear by the KUBAIK official responsible for liaison with the Escapen Program in Washington.20th HiwDist:SP, w/att (2)1-C505, w/o att2 Mar 54James W.

The degree of agency aid in finding these jobs would be difficult to pinpoint.(3) There is also evidence that 20 to 30 escapees have enlisted in Labor Service Companies as "other nationalities".

## SECRETORT Union, the World YMCA, and the Lutheran World Federation. With- out exception, these agencies have strong and reputable American affiliates which are accredited and recognised by the Advisory Com- mittee on Voluntary Foreign Aid. In the case of WCC, the American affiliate is the National Council of the Churches of Christ, whose welfare organization is the Church World Services is is accredited by the Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid and is a member in good standing of the (American Council of Voluntary Agencies for Foreign Service, Incorporated. The specific requirements for quali- fication are not now available; however, it is believed that to be qualified for accreditation by the Advisory Committee, an agency must be supported by voluntary subscriptions, and humanitarian in character. It is believed that agencies wholly political are not eligible.9. Question: What is the status of the proposal to form a Russian labor company which we understand has been approved in Washington?General agreement on the formation by USAREUR of a Labor Service Unit comprised of Soviet escapees has been reached by US EUCOM and USAREUR. This project now only awaits final approval from the Depart- ment of Army as to certain details. (It is understood that the Army has already agreed to the proposal in principal.) It is anticipated that the project will be implemented in the near future.The Unit, which will be assigned a guard mission, will comprise initially 100 officers and men. In addition, one man to act as staff advisor to USAREUR on matters affecting the Unit will probably be recruited. This position should have a field grade of perhaps a Lieutenant Colonel. The personnel ceiling of 100 may be raised to 200 should it appear desirable in the light of experience. In order to avoid the appearance of supporting Great Russian or minority national aspirations, the shoulder flash for members of the company would bear the name "ROSSISKIY" or Russian People, rather than "RUSSKIY" or Russians.In the course of a recent discussion between representatives of CAS, U.S. EUCOM, and this office concerning this proposal, general agreement was reached on the following points:a) Leadership in the company should be recruited from the more recent Soviet escapees or defectors, rather than from the older "emigre" groups.b) Efforts should be made to recruit the maximum possible number from the escapees registered with USEP, andc) The TZOPE group should be strongly represented in the company.10.
