SECRET25 January 1962The following message has been received from Mexico City:For King and Sayre from Ambassador Manns1.  As you know, some weeks ago we became convinced that only chance of getting Mexico to break relations with Cuba would be on basis Cuban intervention Mexican internal affairs. This of course was on assumption two thirds Rio treaty vote could not be obtained at Punta Del Esto.2.  With this objective in mind Dept and CAS authorized me to turn over materials described in IN 12519 to appropriate Mexican official. I chose Gustavo DIAZ Ordas.3.  DIAZ Ordas has informed CAS that he discussed this evidence with Lopas Hatens who expressed surprise and interest. We discount Lopez Kateos statements because as you know he has much better evidence of Cuban Embassy intervention which he keeps strictly to himself and has never told Cabinet about. The evidence we turned over to DIAS Ordas has psychological importance because President is now aware that DIAL Ordaz also knows part of the story. He can hovor be sure that DiAd Onias will not use this to support his own anti-communist convictions if a showdown between the Corries and anti-Commies should occur in Mexico.4.  DIAZ Ordas has asked me through CAS whether I would have any objection if the information wa furnished him were made public should an appropriate occasion arise in the future. he said there would be no mention of the U.. Govt and that Cobermacion would present the evidence as collected by it.5.  I recommend that CAS and fent authorize me to inform DIAZ Ordas that we have no objection on the basis outlined by him. Reason for my recommend- ation is that on the one hand we lose little by blowing the microphone oneration since battery 18 scheduled to expira soon in any case. We believe we are in a position where we can safely deny that we had anything to do with placing micro- phone. In this connection DIAL Ordas obviously believes our story that wo picked up signal by routing dialing of different frequencica and that microphone was presumably placed by Soviets to check on their satellites. On other hand affirmative answer to DIAZ Ordas will also implicitly suggest the possibility that the time way come when we ourselves might wish to make this information

SECRET-2-public. I can think of no better incentive to Lopes Mateos to break relations with Cuba than possibility Mexican public might eventually become aware of extent to which Mexico has tolerated Cuban intervention in spite of its vaunted devotion to the doctrine of non-intervention.6. Finally I wish to say that I realise all of these maneuvers involve some risk to U.S. but I believe resurgence of Communist influence in last two months requires unusual counteraction on our part.7. DIAZ Ordas has returned material to CAS for safe keeping and it is now in our possession. He claims he made no copies and we believe this probably true.SECOCT

SECRET3 January 1962MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Chief, WH DivisionSUBJECT: Operations Proposed by Station Mexico City to Influence Mexico to Break Relations with Cuba.1. In addition to the proposal advanced by Ambassador Mann to pass certain telephone tap transcripts to high Mexican officials, Station Mexico City has just forwarded the following suggested operations designed to influence the Mexican Government to break relations with Cuba prior to the OAS Conference:A. To prepare the Mexican "version" of the paper on Cuban Subversive Activities for the Ambassador to pass to Foreign Minister.B. To fabricate on tape a phoney conversation by the Cuban Ambassador and insert it into the joint telephone tapping operation we operate for the President.C. To attempt to persuade a longtime Mexican employee of the Cuban Embassy to defect and make a public statement condemning Cubans for interference in Mexican affairs.D. Should it not be possible to have the Subject above make a public defection, attempt through him to obtain incriminating documents or propaganda from the Cuban Embassy that are suitable for sensational exploitation. The Subject has claimed that the Cubans are running "indoctrination" classes for Mexican youth within the Embassy building.E. If security considerations permit, attempt to arrange a "crash" of the automobile of the Cuban diplomat Hecelio RODRIGUEZ. The "crash" would involve a special under-car device containing weapons and propaganda examples to "prove" Cuban intervention in local labor problems.2.
