# 4320 June 199MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORDSUBJECT: James SABORÍ1.  At 1300 hours on 20 June Subject, on the recommendation    of Bob JOHNSON (formerly with LNERGO in Guadalajara), came to the    Embassy and contacted COS. Subject apparently has known JOHNSON    and had asked JOHNSON to whom he could talk in the Embassy about    a delicate matter. JOHNSON had recommended COS, identifying him    only as a First Secretary.2.  Subject identified himself as an insurance salesman who    is in Mexico as a tourist and who apparently hopes to do some    business here. He is of Italian origin and apparently has lived    in Texas and California. At the present time, he is living at    Bahia de Santa Barbara #20, apartment 308. Telephone number is    31-53-93.3.  Subject's story was that he has been in contact with    Valentin LOGINOV (P-11,712) (he showed COS LOGINOV's card) and,    as a matter of fact, has had no less than 12 contacts with him.    He is scheduled to have dinner with LOGINOV tonight (20 June) at    2000 hours but he would not say where as he was afraid that COS    would contact the CIA people and surveil him. He is also scheduled    to have dinner with LOGINOV on 25 June. In the past, they have    had dinner at such places as La Cava and the other Tecali Restaurant.4.  Subject refused to say very much about the nature of his    contact with LOGINOV. His reason for contacting' COS was to get a    copy of the latest Embassy phone directory, which LOGINOV had    asked him for. He wanted to bring it to LOGINOV so that LOGINOV    would do things for him. He did not say exactly what LOGINOV    could do for him except that LOGINOV had invited him to visit the    Soviet Union. LOGINOV has also given him several bottles of vodka.    He was not worried about what LOGINOV could get out of him because,    after all, he was just an insurance salesman. In other words, he    seemed to be enjoying playing games with LOGINOV and was not    particularly ready to cooperate with us. COS said that he would    have to contact the "proper people" to see about the phone book.    Subject asked COS to do that and said that he would call CoS at    1800 hours on 20 June to get the answer. He also said that if the    "proper people" were interested, they could contact him at the    address and phone number given above.
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 43]
5. When Subject calls at 1800 hours, he will be told that COS has gotten in touch with the "proper people" and that a representative of these people will call Subject on 23 June. As for the phone book, COS will say that this is entirely out of his hands and that the man who contacts Subject on 23 June will presumably deal with that.6. My plan at present is to have Bruce H. FERNALD (P) call Subject on 23 June and attempt to get as much of a debriefing as possible without being hostile or aggressive. I am looking at the long-range possibilities here because, unless there are unexpected developments, it is probably too late to use this against LOGINOV. However, if Subject has really been cultivated so assiduously by LOGINOV, the chances are that LOGINOV will turn him over to his successor, assuming that Subject continues to show the promise that he has apparently shown thus far. I want FERNALD to get as much as he can out of Subject without either frightening Subject away from LOGINOV or ruining the possibility of future cooperation against LOGINOV's successor. As for the phone book, I have no intention of passing it, at least without knowing a lot more about what is going on. Subject can be told and can pass on to LOGINOV that this is a tightly controlled publication and that it will not be very easy to come by (that is, unless he manages to steal one on his own). Also, if Subject (who is, at least to our current knowledge, unwitting of COS' affiliation) mentions COS! name to LOGINOV, LOGINOV's appetite may be greatly wetted to find out that his new contact has gone right to the top.7. There are no Station traces on Subject.8. Subject called at 1800 hours 20 June. He was given the message in paragraph 5 and agreed to await a call from "the proper people" at 0900 hours on 23 June. He also agreed to stall on the phone book.Vincent P. RIZZUTOFile: P-11,712

# 45SB/T-Angedra whose SECRETnew dir might beplies to than to LIREALM17 June 1969MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORDSUBJECT: LIREALM-1 CONTACT WITH AEDIEHARD1. The attached report from LIREALM-l was received on 16 June 1969. LIREALM-1 verbally added the following comments to the information in the report:a. Although they have not attended any social functions together since their last encounter, it is LIREALM-1's opinion that AEDIEHARD is generally avoiding direct contact with him. Only once since LIREALM-l told AEDIEHARD that he was insulted by CEDIEHARD's request that LIKEALM-1 work for him has ALDICHARD asked LIKEALM-1 to play tennis, LIREALM-1 has seen AEDJEHARD on various occasions at the French Club, but neither have made any effort to speak to the other..b. AEDIEHARD requested permission to bring a Mexican couple to the 21 June awards dinner. This was a strange request since the party was intended to include only those who had participated in the tennis tournament at the Club. Permission was granted, however, and LIREALM-1 will attempt to determine the identity of the Mexican couple at the party.c. Both LIREALM-l and his wife ane convinced that AEDIEHARD is avoiding introducing his Soviet friend to the friends of LIREALM-1's wife. She has placed herself in a position, on a couple of occasions, where AEDIEHARD had to be almost impolite in not introducing his friend to LIREALN-1's wife, but he has chosen not to do so.2. Based on the instructions given LIREALM-1 after the last incident between him and AEDIENARD, he has not gone out of his way to engage MEDIEHARD in conversation or cultivate him socially. This might explain AEDIERARD'S standoffishness and/or his apparent unwillingness to introduce his new friend. More information on this subject will be available after the 21 June dinner.Andrew E.

# COMPACT REPORTSUBJECT: LICONL-1 (T-DATE OF MEETING: 11 June 19691. As arranged last month, I picked Subject up on the corner of Nilo and Melchor Ocampo lateral at 1100. We drove to the Tastee Freeze in Polanco for coffee and met until 1300. Next meeting will be on 9 July at 1100, same pick-up place.2. Subject seems like a real diamond in the rough with earthy and sensible philosophy. I was surprised at his promptness and the fact that he doesn't forget meeting dates, even though they're arranged a month ahead and there's no confirmation. He told me that he frequently gives away candy and stuff to the little Sov kids who come in, feeling that they'll remember it years from now when they're fed a line of propaganda about the West and that this will make an impression and help offset all the bad things they hear.3. I brought with me the Soviet mug flash cards to have Subject identify those who come into his store frequently and then he refers to by his own personal crypt's (since he usually doesn't know their names). Following is the key to identifications:"The Professor": ASTAKHOV"Colorado": DAVIDOVSKIY"Boris": PODLESNOY"Juan": SOLOMATIN"Pablo": KOVALEV"Vladimir": KORMUSHKIN"Tipo Espanol": SHOVCHENKO"Oleg": MECHIPORENKO"Valentin": LOGINOV"Alex": FUMITSOV"Administrator: KHARITONOVThere are also other who come to the store but who have no fixed

KAZANTSEV said that he had no news on his departure and now thinks he will probably have to stay in Mexico until a now ambassador is appointed.2. Subject called NIKITIN once and was not able to get ahold of him. He has not tried again but I asked him to keep at this. I showed Suoject photos of most of the Soviet officials. He recognized a good many of them by fact if not by name and made the following comments on some of thom:a.

SBIASB/J = to watch for ces to LOGINORSB/sex- ex MhoG, NENOL ete.May 22, 1969.Contact RerortSubject: LIBACON-1 (P-4805)Date of Keet: May 21 at the Paris-Mexico Restaurant1. This meet was held inlieu of the one scheduled for May 14 which L-l postponed by phone. Lal was at the pick up place 10 minutes before the scheduled time but I was there still earlier and I observed nothing suspicious in terms of stakeouts or surveillance. The meet lasted 75 min. NEXT MEET: Wednesday May 28 at the same pick up place.2. As we met L-l stated that he cancelled the last week meet because he was seized by one of his nervous crisis of hysteria followed by depression (sic). He immediately added that he prepared for re nothing because in his condition he was not able to do any work...3. In the restaurant he kept on describing what effect the nervous crisis has on him and he added that he still felt depressed. During his description he did not indulge in dramatizing the matter.4. I asked him what happened to the lunch he was supposed to have with LOGINOV and he repeated what he told me by phone on Kay 8 and added that LOGINOV was to call him but did not do it. He added that if LOGINOV had called during the past 8 days the phone would be answered only if his wife was home. I told him that this fact was a reason for him to ring up LOGINOV, because, as we discussed and agreed on the last weet, it would serve no good purpose to L-1 if LOGINOV would characterize him as a not desirable person from the Sov point of view. He commented that be believed LOGINOV was a friend of his to the extent that he would not do such a thing to him. I countered by stating that he insisted in con- sidersing LOGINOV to be his friend, but what ever LOGINOV asked fron hir he turned him down with & No; to preserve good will of a person it is necessary to meet some of his requests and the best is to do it when it does no harm to anybody and at the same time does not get L-l in- volved in any of LOGINOVO schemes. He agreed with my reasoning, as he did at the last meet, but it is to be seen what will he do about it.5. To change the subject I asked L-1, Karel return. He said
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 51]
- 2 -he knew nothing about VENDEL, except, that his wife gave a birth to a child during his absence and he added that if VENDEL had returned he would had heerd about it.6. Speaking about Carel he recalled the fact that Carola HIRSH, an Ecuadorian girl of 22 approx. returned to Mexico and she will be taking an intesive course of Russian from L-1. He stated that he spoke to KARTASUK about this girl: she was here and worked with the Olympic committee as an interpreter; after the Olympics she went to Ecuador and now she returned here; she came with her mother who found her an apartmant in Rio Elba where they had a worming up party on Friday key 9; her father is a well to do phisician in Quito, Ecuador; she has no permit to work in Mexico which means that her father will pay the expenses of her stay here: in view of his nervous crisis he did not keep in touch with her, but he believes that her mother had returned to Quito by now: LOGINOV knows her from some of the parties L-1 and his friends were giving during the Olympics or briefly after them.7. He forgot to tell me that he was with Andrea CATANO (P-13,546) after she returned from her trip to the US and Canada and she told him that she definitely broke with CHERNISH (P-13,042) by telling him that she had a boy friend about whom she is serious and who is a jealous type: he (C) is wellcome to come to her (parents) home when he wishes, but she is in no position to reet with him out.8. I asked L-1 was it possible that LOGINOV, who according to him was driving hard to axtara achieve some success before he leaves, might have attempted to recruit Juan Luis ALVARES, director of the language school on Tiber, during the past 2 months. L-1 stated that he doubted that JLA would even want to see LOGINOV because LCG in many instances ignored JLA's requests through L-1 to pass by the school. L-1 went on to say that if by incident LOG got hold of JLA and made an attempt to enlist his services, L-1 was positive that JLA would had turned him down. (NOTE: This leaves unsolved what was L-1 speaking about when he spoke to LIOVALA about the good time LOGINOV and JLA had together at unknown date).9. I tried to explain to L-1 that he should do some writing for us along the lines of waxt our previous agreement. He promised.

10. As much as L-l is a compulsory talker, during this meet he was ratiner on the quiär side,i.e., he spoke when he was asked something. He had only 2 drinks and he tokk some food with them. He was interested in leaving on time which was pleasant news to me.11. On the way to his car I asked L-l what he thought about the death of 16 Sov Generals in 15 weeks. He commented to the effect that a publisized purge of big wheels is intended to silence the opposition and this may be necessary in view of the fact that a number of soldiers will start returning from Czechoslovakia and their stories would be the opposite what the government used as excuse for invading Czecho.EHFernald

At 2030 hrs C and F met with LIOVAL-1 at HOYO 19 restaurant where in the course of a farewell dinner the turnover was effected.Next F- L-1 meet: May 21 at 1330 hrs at the same restaurant.2. Comno:a. During the next two month and L-l will hold personal meets twice a month.b. L-1 can be reached during woeking days on phone 23-99-34 from 0800-1410 hrs at his school; on phone 75-10-03 at home except Wednesdays when he will be home from 1600-1700 hrs.c. L-l can use the extention 870 to leave a message for F (whom he knows under the alias of Victor Brandon). I-l will usually stated that he wants to ses on given day and time, which means that he will be waiting for Pat a restaurant which will be sellected as their meet site on their next meet.3. Security:a. Standard security practices will be applied to P - L-1 personal meets and other operational activity.b. On their next meet a new meet sight will be selected.c. For internal use only: C instructed F that with regard to what can be said to L-l there was no use of getting into the security for the sake of security: if it would serve any useful purpose of telling L-l that

He will ascertain theamount and F will pay it on the next meet.b. C infoed L-1 about the status of the order of a Folboatand was tild that when it come F will deliver it to him.c. With regard to ops experses former agreement remainsin power.5. Operational:a. L-1 reported on LIRACON-Is statements to him aboutLOGINOV on May 2 (reported separately). This provideda taylor made openening for operational Cirectives.b. L-l will continues his contact with LIBACON-1 throughlanguage classes, because LIBACON-l is still a personof interest to us.c. We received from other sources info that LOGINOV wouldleave PCS in July. In view of the fact that Sov ISofficers are judged home by the mecanical computationof their activity abroad, our experience shows thata good number of then try to embelish their recordin the last 2-3 months before their departure byestablishing contacts and making recruitment attemptswith disregard for security riles and sound operation-practices. We have sufficient indications that LOGINOVfalls in this category of Sov IS officers withouttrying to determine whether LIRACON-18 statements toL-l may be an additional indication to that effect.As far as we know LOGINOV it would be in line withhis recent behavior if he approached L-1.d. If L-l is approached by LOGINOV or another Sov officialhe will act friendly and speak about his frienshipwith Pavel YATSKOV. L-l will make a remark to theeffect that PY failed to keep his promise and send him
[104-10174-10065.pdf — page 55]
-3-his Moscow address.e. If LOGINOV, or whoever it may be, disclaims knowledgeabout L-1 - YATSKOV friendly relation, L-l will speakin terms that this fact ought to be a common knowledgein the Sov Embassy.f. If the person making the appreach accuses I-l fortrying to buy a Sov official (PY), L-l pretend thatthe approacher is grossly mistaken and will open abarrage of questions to determine what was knownhere about the PY case. If the correct sum involvedin that case is centioned, or place the pitch was madeor other detail(s) indicating that the approacher iscognisant of this specific case, L-l will politelyask what the approscher wanted from him and will nothesitate to tell him that the same offer applies tothe approacher.g. If LOGINOV makes the approach under the pretext ofwishing to maintain friendly relation with L-l andadmite knowing PY and having heard about Pys friend-ship with L-l he will be treated friendly and L-1will invite him to a dinner and let him talk. Insuch a case it would be obvious that LOGINOV wouldwant to pass L-l to somebody else.h. When, whoever it be, would attempt to recruit L-1he will stick to his guns of being an American patriotand will turn him down by stating that he was ableto make a better offer to the recruiter.BHFernald

Subject: Rafael VIDIELLA Rais (F-4805)Valentin LOGINOV (P-11,712)ATTACHMENT to TURNOVER ReportMay 15, 1969.Source: LIOVAL-1 (p-1. ON May 2 Rafael gave a language lesson to LIOVAL-l and on that occasion he stated that LOGINOV had taken Juan Luis, Director of the language school on Tiber, for a day of having fun. It was not olear whether Juan Luis and LOGINOV had a night on the town or they went out of town for a whole day "to have some fun".2. Rafael told L-l that he did not understand such an attitude of LOGINOV, because he considered LOGINOV to be a good friend of hist he was surprized that LOGINOY did not invite him together with Juan Luis, in fact, he could not explain to himself how something like that could happen.3. Rafael went speaking about LOGINOV for some time about how good he is basically as a man; how pleasant companion he is and what a good friend he 18.4. L-l pointed out that there was nothing factual nor significant in what he said about LOGINOV, but L-l was puzzled by the fact that "out of the blue sky" Rafael was speaking about LOGINOV and kept on speaking and speaking.5. L-l believed that Rafaelo pride was hurt that by the fact that LOGINOV ignored him, especially, when there was a chance of having some fun. Therefore, L-l told Rafael that it was possible that LOGINOV wanted to invite him too, but was not able to reach him by phone, which wouli not be unusual in view of the fact that Rafael is practically never home.6. On this same occasion Rafael asked LIOVAL-l if he would be kind to pay him the lessons which he owed him. In view of the irregularity of Rafaels appearances to give lessons L-l war not certain whether he owed anything or not. Rafael corroborated his request by stating that
