CONTINUATION OFDISPATCHSECRETIOMA - 3116410. Station Comments. The same Station coments made in reference to LILYHIC also apply to LIMITED. Also, the use of LIMITED as the radio alert base for the LIEMBRACE surveillance teen has weakened the security of this base. In regard to LIMITED, LICOWL-1 has reported that the Soviets are very interested in LIEMPTY-6/LIMITED and that so many Soviets have talked to him (LICOWL-1) about LIEMPTY-6 that he is convinced that the Soviets have a "fear" and an "obsession" about LIEMPTY-6. LICOWL-1 reported on 3 January 1967 that the Subject of 201-744341 and the Subject of 201-756168 asked him on 19 December 1966 for full details known to him about LIFMPTY-6 and Subject of 201-756168 went so far as to say that he believes that LIEMPTY-6 is "watching the Soviets".LICALA11. When the Soviets raised the height of the wall in their backyard about two years ago, they could have blocked completely the view of this base's working window by making the wall a few inches higher. Since they did not do this, it would seem to indicate that they are not aware that their activities are being monitored from this point. On the other hand, in recent months LIEMPTY-9, the operator, has reported that activities in the back yard have been curtailed more and more. For example, the women no longer congregate there daily, the school children enter their classes by a route not visible to LIEMPTY-9 ar the trees and shrubs have not been trimmed in years, making LIEMPTY-9's view poor in most directions. LIEMPTY-9 says that he has never noticed any undue interest in his house or his activities by the Soviets. Access to the operating room can be soon from the window which LIEMPTY-9 believes to be the commo room in the target installation.12. The cover for this base is that of a normal residence. LIEMPTY-9's cover work is that of a car and insurance salesman in a local automobile agency in the afternoon only. LIEMPTY-9 does work in his cover. LIEMPTY-9's cover for the use of the operating room is that he does accounting work for client firms. The door is kept locked at all times and LIEMPTY-9 never allows the servant to enter, even for cleaning purposes. The equipment is kept locked in a trunk within the room when not in use and all loga and photos are kept in a safe located in LIEMPTY-9's bedroom closet.13. GERENDE Comment. I believe the Soviets are aware of the photo surveillance being carried out by this base due to the position of the window and the curtains during the hours when LIEMPTY-9 is operating.14. Station Comment. The Station does not believe that this photo base 1s known to the Soviets. This belief is based on the fact that the LICALLA coverage is excellent and there has been no indication that the Soviets act for the benefit of observers while they are in the backyard. It is interesting to note that the Soviets made no effort to "protect" the LNERGO walk-in mentioned in paragraph 6 above during a visit to the backyard and LICALLA did obtain photographs of the walk-in. The school children no longer pass through the backyard because the location of the school was recently changed and the children now go by another route. The Station has instructed GERENDE to take every pre- caution in order to protect the security of the LICALLA base.15. As a general comment pertaining to the security of the bases in- volved in Project LIEMPTY, it should be noted that the Soviets are aware of the fact that LIMOUSINE is the owner/builder of the now LILYRIC building. LIMOUSINE is also the owner of the LIMESA complex, through a holding company.16. The Station realizes that most of the details reported in this dispatch are known to Headquarters; however, the Station wanted to make the opinions of the Principal Agent and the Station a matter of record in a consolidated form.For/Willard C.
