Administretive: Rowton asked LIRING/3 to rent a small apartment that they could use as a safehouse, in lieu of Iden A, for the future. This was not only in the interest of economy, for for obvious security reasons. Rowton gave LIRING/3 1,500 pesos as an advance for this purpose.5. Reports/Information Passed by Agent:LIRING/3 reported to Rowton that he had dropped into the LIRING office on 4/12/68 in the hope of running into the LIRING Chief so that he could mention to him casually the proposed trip to PBRUMEN at the end of the month. LIRING/3 told Rowton that he did not see the Chief inasmuch as he was intercepted by LIRING/9. The latter appeared as cordial as on the previous occasion, but this time made a brief reference to LIRING/3's report. He asked: "Are you sure you included everything?" L/3 told Rowton that he replied in a rather puzzled tone, "Of course. Everything, this is, that I could remember." To which L/9 explained: "I mean about the 'motivos' of the arrest. It seems there's more to it than you wrote. We have some interesting data on that subject. We'll discuss it with you on Friday."LIRING/3 then reported to Rowton that when he and LIRING/4 dropped in to Identity B on 3/12/68 the secretary of the Director, Identity C, gave them a message that s person by the name of Humberto Gonzalez Vega, residing at Calle Manzanillo 42, in apartment 8, had visited Iden B several times asking for the address of LIRING/3.LIRING/3 continued to Roston that he attempted to contact Humberto Gonzalez Vega at the address given on 4/12/68 but was told by a woman of about 35 years of age with a slight Guatemalan accent that he was out at the time. She took L/3's address with interest and suggested that L/3 return after 1500 the following day in the event Gonzalez did ret contact him at his home. L/3 told Rowton that he guessed (and hoped that this was "Favel".h/watt:1• HMMA-36114CS COPY

ATTACHMENT #1ИПА-36111410 December, 1968Subject: LIRING/3 Report of Contact with Humberto González Vega.1. At 1000 on 9/12/68 at Identity A , LIRING/3 reported to Rowton that he had met with Humberto González Vega on 5 and 6 December. He related that he had gone back to the apartment on Calle Manzanillo on the afternoon of 5 December, met González and made a date to see him again on the morning of 6 December. When he returned about 1030 on that day González' wife said that he had just stepped out to telephone the embassy of Ecuador. L/3 went out and found González at a nearby telephone booth and managed to have a relatively detailed chat with him.2. According to L/3, González sarted off by saying that he had been looking forward to meeting 1/3 for some time, since he had heard a great deal about him from mutual friends. González went on to say that although he had been away from Guatemala for the past four years, he kept in touch with his friends there. He dropped the names of Sandoval Alegría, Jorge Torrón and a certain Avecillas (phon) who he assumed were known to WIRING/3. He concluded his introductory remarks with the statement that he hoped he and L/3 would become friends, since they could be of mutual help.3. González added that he was making a living selling books and was planning to open a book store at the University. He indicated that he might be able to help L/3 financially if the latter were interested in this business venture. González then stated that he was aware of L/3's arrest and detention and alleged that he had advance information concerning 1/3's trip to Guate- mala in the company of Identity D . He then asked L/3 whether he knew the real purpose of Iden D trip. When L/3 replied in a non-committal way, González alleged thatIden Dhad been accused of misappropriation of funds and took the trip in the hope of defendi..g himself against these charges, González then produced a typewritten letter, undated and addressed to himself and signed by "Cruz", advising him of the charges againstIden D. González told L/3 that the letter was from FAR headquarters and was received some time beforeIden Dand L/3 left on their trip.4. González then went on to say that he and his friends were not at all certain thatIden Dhad been executed, as L/3 and many other people assumed. He stated that some months ago Iden D mother in Mexico City had received a letter from him informing her that he was then at Salamá (phon). González added that it was not to be excluded thatIden Dhad made some sort f deal with the authoritie: to save his skin in exchange for services he might perform against Far in the future.5. Gonzáñez then cautioned L/3 against indiscriminate contacts with persons

2. representing themselves to be from legitimate "revolutionary" movements.González recounted that he himself had to go into hiding for the previous two months as a result of his having been exposed to a certain Nuñez who had arrived in Mexico City with a group of Guatemalan exiles. González described Kuñez as a known member of the "Mano Blanca" and a former police officer ("tercero jefe de la Judicial").6. González then asked L/3 whether he had made any close friends while in Guatemala. This, 1/3 felt, was an attempt to smoke out his relationship with the Barrios brothers (Miguel and Juán Beón Barrios). He told howton that he evaded the issue by giving a vague reply, to which González replied: "Well, I hope to have a great surprise for you soon ('alegría')" González then suggested that they meet again on 12 December and promised to visit L/3 at his home in the company of his wife, "so that 1/3's and his wife could keep each other company while they themselves were talking in L/3's apartment." 1/3 told Rowton that he shot this idea down by explaining that althoug his wife was revolutionary and trustworthy, he preferred to keep any politicial discussions strictly between himself and González. The latter, then suggested that he simply drop by L/3's house and that they both proceed somewhere for a coffee on a suitable pretext.7. LIRING/3 described Humberto González Vega as a"rather tall"man ( about 1.78)' heavy (about 85-90 k.), apparent age 42, with light eyes ("ojos claros") and straight ("lacio") black hatr. He drew Rowton the attached sketch for possible identification.8. IIRING/3 agreed with Rowton that it was advisable for him to tell LIRING/9 at his next meeting of his contact with González Vega to provoke a reaction from the LIRING establishment.Wallace B. Rowton

ATTACHMENT #1HQHA- 3611411 December, 1968Subject: LIRING/3 Report of Contact with LIRING/9 and SIRING/10.1. LIRING/3 reported to Rowton at 1300 on 10 December, 1968, that he had finally succeeded in talking again with LIRING/9. He related that when he went/the LIRING office as requested at about 1030 on 9/12/68 he was told by the receptionist that LIRING/9 was still out. L/3 was asked to telephone later, about 1300, to check whether L/9 had returned. LIRING/3 telephoned, as requested, a little after 1300 (in Rowton's presence) but was told that LIKING/9 had not returned. L/3 left a message for L/9 that he would come to his office again the following morning.2. LIRING/3 continued that he reappeared at the LIRING office about the same time the next day (10/12/68) and was told this time by the receptionist (the wife of LIRING/10's assistant) that LIRING/9 was in. At this moment LIRING/9 himself emerged from his office with papers in his hand, winked at LIRING/3 and returned without addressing him. A few minutes later L/3 was told by the receptionist that L/9 would see him. The following is Rowton's reconstruction of the conversation that took place between LIRING/3 and LIRING/9, based on L/3's report to Rowton:L/9: "Come in. I'm sorry I couldn't see you Friday or yesterday. I was out of town."L/3: "It's alright with me, except that I have a number of things pending as far as my own plans are concerned."L/9: "Well, how are you doing?"L/3: "Fairly well. I just received a letter from my good friend, Prof. Carlo Antonio Castro of the University of Veracruz. He has been insisting that I go down to Jalapa to see him. He wants to organize an exposition and also to offer me an interesting position at the University."L/9: "But would that mean that you would have to stay in Jalapa?"L/3: "Yes, of course, that is, if I accept. It's a tempting solution to my personal problems. As I told you I'm still "up in the air'""L/9: "But I don't think that's the solution. A trip would be much better."L/3: "Yes, but I have to make a decision soon. Also my wife received a letter from her father inviting her to New York. Here's the letter. Do you want to read it?"L/9: "No. What does it say?"L/3: "Her father says that he can give her medical certificates to prove he is very sick so that she can get a visa without any
[104-10176-10006.pdf — page 8]
difficulty."L/9: "But as I said before, she shouldn't go to the American Embassy. Keep her away from it. That would be bad, as I explained last time."L/3: "I'm doing my best, but it's not easy. Things are still up in the air with us."(At about this moment in the conversation, LIRING/10 entered the office, and, after greeting LIRING/9 rather perfunctorily, carried on the following conversation with LIRING/3:)L/10: "How have you been?"L/3: "Rather well, thanks?"L/10: "And your wife? Is she recovering from the strain?"L/3: "Just about. The nightmare is finally over and she feels better now."L/10: "Well I hope you'll come by here often - as often as you like. We enjoy chatting with you."(After this brief exchange, LIRING/10 left the office.)L/3: "By the way, how is your Chief doing? I'd like to drop in to express my appreciation for the interest he showed in helping my wife during my absence."L/9: "Well, he's not doing too well."L/3: "Oh, another thing. I finally met that Guatemalan 'Pavel' I mentioned in my report."L/9: "Yes, how did it go?"L/3: "His name is Humberto González Vega. He's been in Mexico for some time. A former activist in the PTG. You must know him."L/9: "Yes."L/3: "He wants to see me again on Thursday for a more detailed talk."L/9: "Fine. Well, I hope you keep coming around to see us whenever you can."3. LIRING/3 commented to Rowton that he felt that LIRING/10's intrusion had not been coincidental, and that L/9 had advised him of L/3's arrival before he himself received L/3 into his office.Wallace B. Rowton

# ATTACHMENT #1HΠΠΑ-361112 December, 1960Subject: LIRING/3 Receipt of Letter from Gustavo Colindres.1. LIRING/3 reportedto Rowton at 1700 on 12/12/68 that he had received a letter from Gustavo Colindres, a Guatemalan of about 40 years age whom he had met in the Pavón prison in Guatezala City. LIRING/3 stated that Colindres is the uncle (mother's side) of the León Barrios brothers, although he does not have the same name of sra. Barrios. 1/3 explained that they were born of different fathers. L/3 added that Colindres was imprisoned some 18 months ago for responsibility in an arms cache discovered in or near his home.2. The following is Rowton's translation of the original letter which L/3 gave Rowton for copying:"I hope that when you arrived in your Mexico, you found only peace and satisfaction in being once again in the warmth of your tome. Here on the farm we have missed you and felt badly at not hearing from the artist and the professor, and now that I have succeeded in obtaining your address, I am taking the liberty of dropping your a few lines. I want you both to keep abreast of what's going on at the old farm, even though we're still struggling to turn it over to new owners, but they haven't as yet agreed to the price. I guess I'll be the last to leave the ship, since I haven't a chance to get off. The lions are the next to leave their cage.'Lorenzana' left a month ago and the Queen left on the 2nd of December. Promise me that when you take a drink you'll toast the farm and the date that is approaching.My best to your wife, kisses to your child.and my best wishes for your welfare. May this year of strange experiences engrave in your mind the memory of a friend.Guat. 7/12/68/s/ G.ColindresPlease send your correspondence to me in the name of my wife, Isabel Donis de Colindres, 5 av. y 7a Calle, lote 6-Manzana 26, Colonia Santa Marta, Zona 19, Guat.Cuidad, América Central.3. LIRING/3 told Rowton he understood the "lions are next to leave their cage" to mean that the León Barrios brothers are soon to be released and that this letter is a signal to him to be on the alert for a contact from them in the near future. 1/3 told Howton that he intended to reply to this

2. letter at once, and to take the occasica to mention casually that he   has met a Guatemalan in Mexico City by the name of Humberto González   Vega who seems to know everyone there quite well. L/3 hopes that this   will provoke some sort of comment from the León Barrios brothers wither   directly or indirectly.4. LIKING/3 stated that Gustavo Colindres, who is still in the Pavón   prison, obviously snuggled out this letter through his wife who visite   him regularly. L/3 commented that Colindres told him that he isa faith-   ful FAR member, but refused to belong to the PTG, or even to accept the   financial aid doled out at the Favón prison by Francisco Corado, the PTG   representative there.![signature of Wallace B.

Sobre la situación General de Guatemala es, principalmente de FAR, por aquel entonces Cesario no habia sido destituido y se iniciaba una campaña de Terrible represion por parte del gobierno, de acuerdo con las informaciones se desprende lo siguiente: La división entre PGT y FAR. Promueve una situación dificil, pero algunos mueren, los del PGT renunciaron a este y pasaron a las filas de FAR, aunque teoricamente el PGT dice apoyar la lucha armada e incluso dispone de Contingentes en la montana (zona de Zacapa?). Lo cierto es que promueve mas la división y no apoya en lo mas proximo la linea de FAR. Esto es a grandes rasgos ya que los detalles son bien conocidos. En los ultimos tiempos el PGT Trata de abordar las divergencias. Como ejemplo doy, la situación que presencié en Pavon, donde el representante del PGT Trataba de granjear adeptos entre los polsos pertenecientes a FAR.
