SECRETBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH -- ROSS L. CROZIERRoss L. CROZIER was born on 20 June 1922 in De Kalb, Illinois and is the eldest of five children of a respectable middle-class family. His parents and his two brothers and two sisters now reside in Sterling, Illinois. Crozier received his primary and high school education in De Kalb and entered the U.S. Army in 1940, later transferring to the Army Air Corps. He served as an operations and intelligence specialist, first in the China-India-Burma Theatre and later in Panama. Crozier was discharged from the service in August 1945, leaving with the grade of Technical Sergeant. After his discharge, Crozier worked about three months as a laboratory technician in the Sterling (Illinois) Silica-Cel Corporation and then returned to the Canal Zone to marry Argentina CORDERO C., a Costa Rican girl in December 1945. He then worked about four months as a stevedore. and labor foreman in the Canal Zone. In April 1946 he re-enlisted in the Air Force in the Canal Zone, from which he was discharged three years later in 1949 at his previous grade of Technical Sergeant.Crozier became an Agency contract agent on 1 June 1949. He was originally scheduled to be used in Panama but was assigned to the HUMANOID Project in Costa Rice instead. While there he successfully handled a high level penetration of the Costa Rican Communist Party. In 1953 he was sent to Headquarters for training, and in 1954 he was assigned to PBCCCESS for a brief period. In July 1954 he signed a new contract in Washington whereby he became the new principalSECRET201-168771

SECURITY INFORMATIONTPS-698DEC 7 1951Chief of Station, San JoseActing Chief, WEHUMANOIDRIFS: a. TES-4-1064b. TPS-4-6851. Headquarters files have just been admirably augmented through the receipt of reference a., which to say the least, sheds considerable, much needed light on this operation. This was a most welcome clarification of many of our questions concerning HUMANOID.2. Upon his return to Headquarters, Dennie E. COPELAND reported your desire to have HUMANOID sign a new contract. It is suggested in this regard that you furnish as soon as possible any provisions which you wish to recommend for inclusion in the contract. Such recommendations will of course be in conformity with Sec. 52-3 of the regulations governing contract agents, not career agents. It would be most advantageous to submit such a contract for consideration simultaneously with a request for renewal of the operation at the end of February 1952.3. Relative to your question in paragraph 2 of reference a., at the present time, TPS-4-685 is the current approved version of the extent of HUMANOID's operational activities. It is firmly believed that these restrictions will be removed when, in February 1952, this operation will be considered for renewal by the staff which imposed the curtailment. It is urged that in your quarterly review for the period ending 31 December 1951 you give Headquarters the benefit of another specific detailed report. At that time, we will also submit a request for increased salary for HUMANOID.WM. M. WHEELER, JR.By J. C. BonnetACWHR. W. RASTETTERJCB:cb7 Dec. 515 December 1951201-168881SECRET

AirVIA:SECURITY INFORMATION DISPATCH NOSECRETTRSA-1084CLASSIFICATIONTO: Chief, WHDDATE: 19 November 1951FROM : Chief of Station, San JoséSUBJECT: GENERAL- OperationalSPECIFIC- HUMANOID ProjectRef: TRSW-685, TESA-1056, WASH 146711. TRSW-685, which advises that the expiration date of this-project-has-been-determined to be 29 February 1952, was received several days after the forwarding of TRSA-1056, which recommended that subject be considered for career agent status. Although TRSA-1056 furnished certain of the data requested by headquarters, the following additional information, queries and comments are set forth with a view to facilitating a final evaluation of the project.2. Pursuant to the approval contained in TRSW-655, dated June 29, 1951, HUMANOID has been and is currently acting as cutout for HUMANIST-2, as well as for HUMANKIND-1 and HUMANKIND-3. It is therefore not clear whether paragraph 2.b. of TRSA-685 is to be interpreted as a new restriction on his activities which is to be placed into effect at this time. In other words, is headquarters' approval of the suggestions contained in TRSA-950 now withdrawn?3. As discussed in TRSA-950, assistance was extended HUMANOID in setting up a photography and photocopy shop on the fringe of the downtown area. Funds formerly used for rental of a safehouse were applied instead as rental for his photo shop, with the purpose of providing a safe meeting place between HUMANOID and HUMANIST-2 and to provide a more accessible spot for the processing of HUMANKIND material. Farly in July 1951, after two or three weeks experience with photostating HUMANKIND material at the studio demonstrated the unsuitability of the arrangement, HUMANOID resumed his photostatic work in his own home. The studio has continued to serve as a meeting place for HUMANIST-2. The following considerations entered into the decision to discontinue processing HUMANKIND-1 and 3 material at the photo studio: 1) The conspicuous nature of the equipment in a small shop; 2) the security risks caused by the presence in the studio of HUMANOID's local employee; and 3) the lack of any secure storage space for compromising material4. Since the dispatch of TRSA-1056, HUMANOID has been notified by his photographic assistant that the latter is resigningFORM51-28 ASECRETTRSA 108419 NOV 51CLASSIFICATION

# Page 2SECURITY INFORMATIONSECRETTRSA-1084to seek more remunerative employment-at the end_of this month.-HUMANOID-states that he is unable to devote sufficient time to thebusiness to keep it going without_an_assistant-and-that it would bequite difficult to locate a competent workman at the salary level hecan afford to pay. The above facts, plus unfavorable findings of arecent financial analysis of his business, have convinced HUMANOID.to close the photograph shop at the end of November.5. In connection with paragraph 2.d. of TRSW-685, which   states that HUMANOID must discontinue using his home to reproduce   the material obtained from HUMANKIND-1 and HUMANKIND-3, the following   brief history of safehouse experience at this station is set forth.   A review of the files and discussion with KUKARCID reveals that seven   safehouses have been utilized to date:a. An-office room in the Panana Company building in SanJosé from June, 1959, to Jovember, 1949, used to processHUMANKIND material. Abandoned when it was learned theroom was called the "FBI office upstairs" by other resi-dents of the building.b. An apartment in Bella Vista from November, 1949, toJanuary, 1950, used to process HUMANKIND material.Abandoned because landlord lived next door and usedcommon entrance.c. One-half of a house in San Pedro, which had privateentrance. Abandoned because the notorious Frank MARSHALLwas neighbor. MARSHALL is enemy of the Communist Partyand knew HUMANIST-2 by sight.d. An apartment in Parque Forazán. After two months thiswas abandoned as neighbors began making inquiries con-cerning infrequency of visits to the house.e. Apartment in Barrio Luján, for four months. This wasabandoned as many Party members lived nearby and knewHUMANIST-2 by sight.f. A house near the Sabana airport for seven months, usedto process HUMANKIND material. Frequent vacancy of thepremises caused speculation by neighbors and landlord.g. Photographic studio as discussed above. In addition tostated reasons for closing above safehouses, two housebreakings were suffered, and it was frequently fearedthat the reproduction equipment might be stolen when itbecame apparent that persons were seldom in the houses.SECRET

Page 3SECURITY INFORMATIONSECRETTRSA-10846. In view of headquarters intention to terminate this project, it is not deemed advisable at this time to install-HUMANGID-in-a-new-safehouse to process HUMANKIND material. Accordingly, headquarters advice is requested as to whether HUMANOID may continue using his house for the next few contlis, or whether this operation should be suspended immediately, inasmuch as no suitable alternate cutout has been located to date.7. In reply to your request for comment on the salary increase for HUMANOID recommended by the former Chief of Station, please be advised that the writer concurs in the recommendation. As indicated in TRSA-1056 and. TRSA-999, this agent has been living on a very close financial margin and has been aware of the recommended raise for some months. It is conceivable that he has taken-the-rai-se--possibility into consideration in his personal financial arrangements. In any event, should headquarters decide to terminate subject, it is recommended that several months salary be authorized as a termination bonus in order that there will be no likelihood of security consider-ations arising from subject's possibly over-extenced financial position. This bonus payment is believed justified by subject's long tenure of service.8. With regard to paragraph 3 of TRSW-685, there have been no changes in subject's cover and current codes of contact and communication fron those set out in TRSA-950. HULANIST-2 makes a weekly door-slot drop at night at the photographic studio, and a live Geeting takes place at the studio approximately three nights a month, with safety-danger signals being utilized. In addition, HUMANOID meets once or so a month with HUGGER, either at her home or at the studio. HUMANKIND contacts remain the same. My contacts with HUMANOID have taken place at his home, in aark, in a local pensión, at my home, and in coffee hers on a steggered schedule of about once a week.9. with reference to WASE 14671, please be advised that absolutely no commitments have been made to subject, and, on the contrary, hints have been dropped to aim of a possible curtailment of funds which might require discontinuing certain operations here. No difficulty is anticipated in terminating subject upon receipt of final instructions from headquarters.10. With further reference to WASH 14671, your attention is respectfully invited to the following headquarters files which reflect opinions and evaluations of subject by other staff personnel:TZPA-365 Part II "Subject's superiors regard this man as highly dependable."TZPA-365 Part I "Subject's immediate superior is Lt. Col. Wm. R. PORRES, Director of Intelligence, CAIRC, who recommends subject highly."SECRET

Page 4SECURITY INFORMATIONSECRETTRSA-1084TRSA-403 "Subject is considered to be extremely reliable and intelligent, which, combined with his past experience, qualify him for a wide range of assignments."TREA-589 "...services have been of considerable value to operations. The agents which he handles are the most productive of those now being used by this station, and his management of these informants has been excellent from both an information and security viewpoint."FRSA-646 "...his integrity, discretion, and industry cannot be too highly commended, and we feel that he is eminently suited for staff or cover employ- ment in any capacity deemed commensurate with his intellectual and other abilities."TRSA-860 "...the services of this agent are extremely valuable to this station."TRSA-999 "...the services of this agent continue to be extremely valuable..... In view of his importance to this station, his ability and his willingness to devote time to the work when needed, it is recommended that he be considered for a raise in pay..."TRSA-641 "...his experience and ability is such that he could probably be of use to the organization anywhere in Latin America."11. The above file history, plus approximately three months observation and direction of HUMANOID served as the basis for my recommendation of career agent status.12. At the risk of laboring the point, and solely on the basis of information available here, it appears that HUMANOID has pro- vided valuable service in the past, that he is currently an important factor in the operational structure of this station, and that he possesses certain potential for future use by the organization. In this connection, it is noted that headquarters inquired some time ago (TRSW-641) whether subject would be interested in working for the organization in another country. Although it is realized your interest in this possibility may no longer exist, for your information HUMANOID has stated that he would go to any other Latin American country, in any capacity, on short notice.13. The instant dispatch is respectfully submitted for your information and in response to your queries. It is to be emphasized that headquarters desires with regard to Lodifying or terminating this project will be followed implicitly.SECRET201-168 8 8 1James K. Russo180-3-71
