replied that he felt it quite possible to arrange something for LIRING/3 and for that reason hai brougat up the idea at this point.Rowton told LIRING/3, in reply to his query, that such a trip to PBRUKES would be interesting to him only if LIRILG/3 was offered a position in the cultural field with good access to FM intellectuals and government officials. LIRING/3 agreed, commenting that hezew Iden D and such young rebelswell enough to develop good contact with them, provided he was given a reasonably sericus job. In any case he promised to work co LIRING/4 in the hope of persuading her to go along with him, when and if Iden B's proposal materialized.LIRING/3 continued that Iden B then cffered to arrange en expositionfor LIRING/3 at Iden F in Cuernavaca, stating that he couldwas a close friend of his. LIRING/3 accepted this apparently genuine offer and arranged to travel to Cuernavaca on the morning of 22/4/69 to talk the matter over with the director of the art galleries.LIRING/3 then reported to Rowton that "Rómulo" had ageir visited him at his apartment late on the evening of 13/4/69 (thus anticipating the meeting for 1830 in front of woolworth's for the following day,as originally planned). According to LIRING/3, "Rómulo" (Mario Augosto Mendez Aguilar) told his that he had taken the liberty of coming that evening to LIRING/3's apartment since he wanted to talk in private of "something that LIRING/3 could do to help his friends". "Romulo" then went co to explain that one of his comrades was expected to arrive in Mexico City "in the rear future" and would need a secure place to live, at leaste until he could find a place of his own. "Rezulo stressed that this person, whose identity be himelf did not asset know, would be traveling "clandestinely and eculd not risk renting a room on his own until he had established himself in the area. LIRITG/3 replied that he, of course, would do his best, but pointed out that he himself was not in a good position to protect anyone. We finally agreed that this person might be able to use his kitchen as temporary living quarters, entering and leaving the apartment throught the back(service)entrance. LIRING/3 pointed out to "Rócalo" that the back door to the apartment house was locked at 1700 every day and that therefore it would be necessary for the person using that entrance to return to the apartment for good every night before 1700. "Rómulo" was ap-parently satisfied with this offer of LIRING/3 and poised to let him know when the person arrived in Mexico City."Rómulo" then mentioned to LIRING/3 that Iden E vas currently in the

3. PBRUKEN capital and that he himself ("Rómulo") was in more or less regular touch with the mother of "El Chino", (whom LIRING/3 understood tobe Yon Sosa). "Rómulo" also mentioned in passing that he works for two or three hours a day in the accounts office of *Ovaciones* and also does some part time work at a golf club in Mexico City.E. Information/Guidance Given to Agent:Rowton asked LIRING/3 to continue to press Iden B for more specific information about his proposed assistance to LIRING/3 in obtaining a job in FBRUMENT AND some indication was to the extent of the knowledge and backing of the LIRING office. Rowton did not encourage LIRING/3 to take such a proposal seriously until he could get more concrete data from Iden B.With regard to "Rómulo's" request for assistance, Rowton stated that he would be much more interested in this development, when and if LIRING/3 could get the identity of the comrade of "Rómulo" whom he was to provide a safehouse for. Rowton suggested that LIRING/3 put this person up when he appeared for a few days, long enough to permit Rowton to get a look at him and identify him. A determination could then be made as to the best course of action for LIRING/3 with regard to this person. In reply to LIRING/3's query, Rowton thought that it would be best to reinsure with the LIRING office regarding this matter by casually mentioning to Iden B that he was performing this service for his FAR friends. LIRING/3 agreed, commenting that he hoped that he would not again be caught in the crossfire between the LIRING Office and the nationalist faction of the FAR.![signature of Wallace S.

Ee then asked the guest to remain as inconspicucus as possible, informing hin that he expected a number of children that afternzon for an art lesson in the apartcent. The Guatemakan prczised to be out of the apartment during the day and to return late night. IMIG/3 told Boston that in fact he did not reappear until about 2300 that night, and left before 0700 the following morning. When he returned at about 2200 on the night of 24/4/59 he informed LING/3 that he would be leaving the apertsent the next corming early and would not have to return.

LIRING/3 took the occasion to teli Rómulo about the unexrected houseguest. According to LIRING/3 "Rózulo" appeared genuinely surprised and asked for the identity and physical description of the person. When LIRING/3 told him as much as he knew, "Romulo" stated that: he could not identify the person as a friend of his. Ee speculted that the urannounced guest had been sent to check on. LIRING/3 and advised him to be cautious and as normal as possible in his routine while the person re- zain in the house. He said that he did not exclude the possibility that this person had been sent by the LIRING office "to check on LIRING/3's private life". "Rómulo" then offerred LIRING/3 a revolver for his self- defense, but LIBING/3 turned it down, saying that he was not worried to that extent. According to LIG/3, "Romulo" stated that he himself pre- ferred to avoid meeting the young Guatemalan since he could not identify hin.

He told Howton thatit occurred to him that he zight invited Iden B to the apartmenton the same night in the hope that he could witness a face-to-face zeetingwith "Rómulo" and Iden B. Ee felt that this would serve to keep his handsas clean as possible in the eves of the LIRING office, since he was certainthat Iden B would report promptly of his meeting with "Balo."Roxton agreed, feeling that it was important for 11810/3 to bringoccasiocal meetings with "Aczulo" fully to the attention of the ioffice, on the off chance that they already did not know about thes, andthat Iden B would be the best channel for this.Wallace 3 Reaton

Reports/Information Given by Agent:LIRIKG/3 announced with apparent pleasure that at long last the commo channel with the PAR had been reopened. He stated that he had just received a letter from the elder of the tuc león Barrios brothers ( Miguel and Juén) indicating that in his mind the long period of "probation" was over that and that closer contact could be expected in the near future. aen 83orea conta a letter dated 28 April, 1969, in the handwriting he stated he recog-nized as that of Miguel/Barrios, in which the writer, who signed the letter as "Julio Antonio", informed LIRING/3 that he had just been released from prison ("sanatorio") and was planning to leave town until things cool off for him. LIRING/3 told Roston that he understood the double-talk of the writer to mean that he needed money (Q.100) to travel to Mexico where he hoped to visit IIRING/3. Rowton's photostat and translation of the letter is attached here- with.The envelope, postmarked Guatemala City, 2/5/69, is addressed to LIRING/4 (as previously requested by LIPING/3) and bears the re- turn address J. Antonio Medina, 24 Calle 1-65, Zona 1, Guatemala, and was sent special delivery. LIRING/3 told Roston that he did not recognize the return address, and assumed that it, as well as the sender's name, Medina, was notional. He added that "Violeta" was the code word for oper tional contact with anyone arriving on behalf of the León Barrios brcthers, and that Doña Luisa referred to Marta, the mother of the León Barrios brothers.when Roxton agreed that LIRING/3 should send some money, no more that 1,000 pesos ( Q 80 ) with a cover letter from G/4 (os- tensibly) but in his own handwriting, explai:ming in double-talk that fortunately he is doing fairly well financially and that LIRING/4 is now working in an art gallery and expects to inherit money from her father who recently passed away. LIMING/3 promised to have the cover letter and enveloce ready when he met with Roxton on 7/5/69 so that he could insert the money order. 1/3 told Rowton

2. that he felt it best to send the corey orier in the name of Elsa,the eldest of the León Barrios sisters, rather than to the mother(Karte) as reçuested in the letter. He exp'sined that the last moneyorder (actually certified bank check) in Elsa's nane, sent by LIRIC/4,arrived safely and apperently was cashed without difficulty. Rowtonsuggested that III.G/3 send the letter, rezistered with receipt requested,just to be sure that the letter arrived at its destination.![signature of Wallace B. Bowton]Wallace B. Bowton

Guatemala, 28 April, 1959Dear LIRING-4:I am very happy to be able to write to you. Excuse me for not having been able to do so until now, but it was only last week that I was able to leave the sanatorium. My departure from such a place was quite a relief. My health was declining and I almost had a relapse. Everyone at home celebrated. My brother sends you his best.My letter has two purposes: first to excuse myself for not being able to get to your home; it's because, since I am still not recovered, the doctor has told me to recuperate in the country, and, to avoid problems these days, I'm planning to go to uncle Tio's farm. In any case they'll be coming to you on behalf of Violetta since they are still talking about the business here and are/interested. That should take place any day now.My other purpose in writing to you is to bother you for a favor. I should tell you that I have married Liz and she is now expecting a baby. (Finally I was able to follow your advice). Now that I am leaving for the farm, she will be left alone and with some financial difficulties. Since you had invited both of us there, and this is not possible, I hope you will be able to send her something. I think she could use about Q. 100 to very good use. If you could send it to Doña Luisa - she and I would be very much obliged.Everything else is going very well. I amas ever your friend,/s/ Julio Antonio

# DISPATCHSECRETChief of Station, Guatemala CityChief, WI DivisionChief of Station, Lomico CityJICIK/LERING/Humberto GONZALEZ VegaREFERENCE: HEMA-36680, 27 February 19691. Attached for addressees is a translation of a report received from LIMUCK on 28 February 1969 on Humberto GONZALEZ Vega (201-845437). Guatemalan Communist cell in Lomico who has been in contact with LINTON-C (201-799301). The report was submitted by LIMUCK in response to the query for additional information on GONZALEZ mentioned2. It will be noted that LIMUCK's information tends to confirm earlier reporting that GONZALEZ is connected with the PGT rather than the MIR -- though he would appear to have some contacts with the latter organization. While LIMUCK's report is based in part on details dredged up from the past, it is believed that his comments may be of interest to addressees.3. LIMUCK has promised to provide any additional information on GONZALEZ which he may be able to develop.Attachment:1 translation of reportforWillard C.

### ACTA OPERATIVA No. RHM-20650(Translation of report from FBI RCA on Humberto GONZALEZ Vega)1. The business card of Humberto GONZALEZ Vega is printed with the logo of: "Salv. Editores Mexicanos, S.A., Telefono 46-77-77, Madrid 22, Mexico 4, D.F...". CONALEP's name and "Division Medicina" have been added to the card.2. GONZALEZ recently (date not known) obtained a Guatemalan passport at the Guatemalan Consulate in Mexico City. In applying for the passport, GONZALEZ indicated it would be used to travel to Venezuela on behalf of his company (Galvex). There are now doubts about the story of travel to Guatemala. GONZALEZ is a long-time member of the Guatemalan Communist Party (PCT). When he joined the PCT in 1962 he was a member of the Ferrocarriles de Guatemala. In 1954 he went to Buenos Aires as an exile, and also with other Communists was imprisoned in the jail of Villa Devoto on orders of General Ponc. (It is only just to add that there was no valid reason for jailing then). Years later GONZALEZ returned to Guatemala where he has a wife and several children that he claims to support. He is separated from his wife (who is still in Guatemala) and lives with another woman in Mexico.3. In any event, GONZALEZ is still a member of the PCT, and has spent many months in jail because of his Communist activities. On one occasion he was jailed during the regime of Miguel IDIGORAS Fuentes, and again when Colonel Enrique PERALTA Azurdia was in power. GONZALEZ has lived in Mexico as a political asylee, but has returned clandestinely to Guatemala on several occasions, only to be expelled from that country again. In Mexico he has almost always been the "responsable" (one in charge) of the Guatemalan Communists living in Mexico... that is the representative of the PCT in Mexico. At least the visible representative. Even while Victor Manuel GUTIERREZ Garbin was alive, and GUTIERREZ died in 1966, GONZALEZ had a responsible position. Among his functions was keeping an eye on GUTIERREZ.4. It is possible that GONZALEZ' perseverance in seeking a Guatemalan passport, and it took him nearly two years to get it, is because of a desire to go to Cuba or one of the Iron Curtain countries. Or again, it may be that he wants to go to Venezuela as he claims. He gives the impression that he receives a salary from the PGT, and his employment (with-Galvex) -- if he is employed there -- is nothing more than a cover for his political activities.SECRET
