333to which travel agents on a world-wide basis had been invited. On Subject's secondday in Loncow, Gle/ Nechiporanko, Subject's former Stolet C/O in Mexico, came tovisit him at the Hotel Nastoral. Subject deliberately kept his son aby his sideso that Nechiporenko would find it difficult to have private words with him.However, Nechiporenko came to visit Subject every day thereafter until Subject'sdeparture, bringing gifts of records, caviar, etc. then Nechiporenko found theopportunity the first thing he told Subject was that he heard Subject had been a"rabel" and had been difficult in Mexico. Subject, in his half-serious manner,poohpohed the idea that ho was a rebel and told Nechiporenko earnestly that hedidn't have the time, effort or inclination to indulge in the cooperation that wasexpected of him. It gave Nechiporenko the old line about friends "hasta in muerte"but that he couldn't and wouldn't put out the old effort. Nechiporanko said thaturs too hard, because he and wanted to present Subject to his chief and now therewas no point to it. Subject shrugged this off. Nechiporenko asked Subject if hewould be willing to use his office as a letter-drop. Subject said, reprovinglythat that was not a very smart idea-since agents writing to his firm and to himwould then know of Subject's conduction with the Soviets and he would thus beexposed. Nevertheless, Nechiporenko told Subject to think it over and talk toValentin (Loginov) in Mexico about it. Also, Nechiporenko told Subject that theyhadn't forgotten about the "branch office" and that Subject shouldn't feel badabout the delay in setting it up. Subject ridiculed that idea, saying that it wasthe Soviets who should feel bad; as for him, he couldn't be bothered in the futurewith the trips and time involved. Nechiporenko, still not chastened, asked ifSubject would provide information on all changes in visa regulations for travel inCentral or South America. Subject he said ho had given this information to theSoviets in the past. Nechiporanko than asked Subject to continue to give suchinformation to Valentin.Subject elicited from Nechiporenko that he was working in the Latin AmericanSection of the For.gn. Ministry, and that he was allowed to come and go as hepleased to visit Subject. In the context of telling Subject that he saw thenSubject was not getting along with his Soviet friends, Nechiporenko said that hewould be coming back to Mexico next year.One day while Nechiporenko was in the hotel room, the phone rang and Subjectpicked up the phone. A female voice asked for "Givy." Subject banteringly repliedin Russian that "Givy" wasn't around, but wouldn't he do. In the ensuing conversa-tion Subject found out that the caller was a 25 year old student, her address andtelephone number, and made a date to meet her the following day at the Latin Stationexit of the metro. Nechiporanko was all in favor of Subject making the date, andas a matter of fact: came the next day to take Subject's son to the circus so thatSubject would be free. /Comment: Subject said that he never did go to meet the rategirl, but told Nechiporenko that he hau. gone and the girl had not shown. Subjectis of the opinion this was not a provocation by the Soviets, but he shied awaybecause he did not want to be involved in anything indiscreet./When Alexander Trikhonko dropped in unexpectedly at Subject's office on 3December, while Subject's wife and son were present, the Soviet asked what hi couldhave lunch with Subject, and the latter put him off telling Trikhonko to call nextweek. /Comment: Trikhonko did not call./On 8 December, Valentin Loginov, two called Subject's office by phone tocome come down to the street, saw Subject for just a minute to present himwith two tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet for 9 December. /Comment: Subject attended./
