CONTINUATION OFDISPATCH                                                SECRET/RYBAT                                                                      OSMA - 260613. AMAUTO-1 confides in few people. From our reading   of QUTINID and QUDOZE, there are at least three persons   who could logically and effectively fill the role as an   intermediary. They are Identities A, B, and C. We can   categorically eliminate Identity A for obvious reasons, i.e.,   lack of direct access to him. Because of his relationship   to Identity D, we can also tentatively eliminate Identity B.   He presents a risk which we are not certain should be taken;   however, we would like to add a comment on him in a later   paragraph. Identity C would seem to be the most logical   choice. He is intelligent, a professional man, well-to-do,   young and one with whom AMAUTO-1 frequently talks and whom   he often sees. We know little about his political proclivities   although he gives the impression of being a moderate analyst   of world events and doesn't seem to have a strong affection   or aversion for the PBRUMEN Government. We have a good   background on him prepared for us by Dun and Bradstreet;   however, as you can well imagine, the report concentrates on   the economic side of the individual. We have made a number   of attempts here in the Embassy to determine whether he has   any American contacts, but with negative results. His visa   file does not show where he visited in the United States or   the purpose, except that it was a business trip. He has an   indefinite visa and we are fairly certain that, if necessary,   we could use the question of his visa as an entree to him.   We are currently reviewing with all Station assets their   knowledge of Identity C. In addition, we are also considering   assets such as QUCASH-1 and QUSPOT-1, who could, under some   legitimate business pretext, contact Identity C. Our objective   is to develop a warm entree to Identity C without compromising   any of our agents, but we are in need of an assessment of   Identity C by either a Station Officer or an asset working   under an officer's instructions. We will keep you advised of   our progress. We are forwarding PRQ Part I under separate   cover. A POA on Identity C was requested separately. There   are no derogatory Station traces.4. Identity B would be an excellent choice if not for   his relationship with Identity D. This avenue might be explored   with QUSEQUIN-48 if Headquarters is agreeable to a joint   operation. QUSEQUIN-48 could probably get the necessary   clearances from Identity D directly, or from one of Identity D's   aides, to contact Identity B. We will not pursue this until   we receive your comments.5. It is not too early to consider the emoluments we   might want to offer to AMAUTO-1 at the time a pitch is made.   As always they should be divided into two areas - for defection   and for recruitment and work in place.![Howard R. SACODER signature]Howard R.
