DISPATCHChief of Station,Chief, Western Hemisphere DivisionSECRETReference: 6010320, 14 April 1966TICHDORN, Income Tax1. Following is a report of a meeting held with Edward G. of the Tax Committee, Victor D. Utgoff, and of the Support Staff. TICHDORN, Independent Contractor, represented by Contining the Support Staff. On 15 April by a representative Tax Committee; 2. As the Tax Committee was able to settle one entire tax matter of disability locally with TICHDORN. As the Tax Committee was able to settle one entire tax matter of disability locally with TICHDORN. As the Tax Committee was able to settle one entire tax matter of disability locally with TICHDORN.During the first part of the meeting it was determined TICHBORN had not filed the 1963 tax return with Internal Revenue but had given it to the station support office with a check for the tax owed. The return held by headquarters is a copy of the covert return. Whether an overt return was filed is not clear and TICHBORN was instructed and took action to stop payment on his check for the 1963 taxes. In 1965 TICHBORN account for the check has not been returned or processed to his knowledge but that he had set aside money in a bank for the 1963 and 1964 taxes.b. It was agreed that the 1963 return on file in Headquarters would be processed as a covered return.As TICHBORN listed as the son as an exemption, he submitted a certified statement claiming as an exemption, the son by a previous marriage had not been listed on his having provided at least 51% support.TICHDORN also agreed he would forward a check to Headquarters for the tax due on the return.TichbornCONTINUEDDistribution:1 - WH/Pers w/act1 - WH/1 w/act1 - CCS/NC wo/att1 - WH/REG wo/attHMS - 4723SECRETWH/Pers/W.S.

# CONTINUATION OF DISPATCH## SECRETc. As the covert tax return for 1964 was also apparently among the missing documents and as TICHBORN did not have a copy, it was agreed to access beginning with the 1964 tax year and thereafter under the Revised Tax Procedures. The assessments were prepared and reviewed by him and are summarized as follows.1964--Contract Compensation $13,500.Tax less Tax Credit 1,450.Tax Assessment Rate 10.8%1965--Contract Compensation $15,000.Tax less Tax Credit 1,790.Tax Assessment Rate 11.9%TICHBORN was instructed to forward a check for the 1964 tax less the excess withholding for 1955 plus Social Security tax of $174. for 1964. Social Security tax had been withheld for tax year 1965.d. The Revised Tax Procedures were explained to TICHBORN and he was advised that a Letter of Instruction regarding the filing of tax returns under the procedures would be forwarded to the Station for his signature. Simply stated, the procedures obviate the filing of covert returns but that a copy of the overt return would be provided Headquarters in a timely manner.e. STATION ACTIONTICHBORN was advised that a cable would be sent to the Station citing the amount due and he agreed to send the check upon receipt of the cable. He was also advised to make the check payable to some fictitious name of his own selection.3. TICHBORN showed great signs of relief when he was told that the above actions would settle the subject of his past tax returns and simplify his filing of future returns.UNITSKY did an excellent job in a minimum amount of time and with no waste of time concerned with any negative aspects of "who struck who or why wasn't something done". TICHBORN was completely cooperative and when the meeting was concluded the sincerity of his thank you to UNITSKY was evident.4. As a separate matter, TICHBORN asked for more detailed information relating to settlement of a claim for reimbursement of hospital and related expenses which he incurred last year.STATION ACTIONa. Attached is a copy of the settlement sheet relating to the above claim which is to be made available to TICHBORN.b. In discussing the matter of payment with Finance they have advised they have not received the T/A requested in DIR 77138 dated 3 Feb 1966.Howard D.

Furnished herewith is a request for direct assessment of Covert Tax Liability form, dated 30 March 1966 for Howard G. TICHBORN. The forms were left by Victor D. UNITSKY for completion by TICHBORN, since TICHBORN was not in Mexico City during UNITSKY's visit.2. The TICHBORN tax case was discussed with UNITSKY who was made aware of the multitude of problems. The series of cable correspondence in regard to the location of TICHBORN'S 1964 Tax returns and check, the final cable of which, Ref A, stated that they could be located in a folder titled "Covert Taxes", was of no avail in locating the missing documents. A thorough search of Station files failed to uncover them.3. It is hoped that UNITSKY can effect an assessment for 1964 as well as 1965 taxes as a solution to the matter. Also, it would be appreciated if UNITSKY could review the reference concerning the 1963 taxes to ascertain if there is any further action required.WILLARD C.

# DISPATCHTO: Chief of Station, Mexico CityFROM: Chief, WH DivisionSUBJECT: LICOLIC, Fiscal Year 1966 Project RenewalACTION REQUIRED REFERENCES:Ref: A. HMMA 27025, 26 August 1965B. HMMW 14392, 10 March 19661.  Project LICOLIC has been renewed for Fiscal Year 1966 in the amount of $19,000 as requested. This approval was effective 2 March 1966.2.  As you are aware there has been a good deal of discussion here concerning TICHBORN's operational activities and how he might best contribute to the overall objectives of the Station. It was agreed during EDGEBROOK's visit here (See Ref B) that TICHBORN would be considered henceforth as a full time Station asset and attention would be given to gaining maximum value from his continued presence in Mexico. Within this context, however, it should also be noted that this Project was renewed for Fiscal Year 1966 with the condition that "... prior to the end of the current fiscal year (1966), adequate cover is found to afford TICHBORN not only the needed mobility and safeguards for his work in behalf of the Mexico Station, but also for his possible third country political action assignments...". In addition, the following recommendation was made in the event Project LIREAM should not be renewed (which should not really be considered at present since agreement wasDistribution:Orig & 1 - COS, Mexico City10 March 1966HMMW 1440605 COPYCLASSIFICATIONSECRETHQS FILE NUMBER201-253203OFFICE: WH/1/MexicoOFFICER: Paul Kittredge:nreDATE: 10 MarEXT. 4523OFFICE SYMBOL: C/WH/1RELEASING OFFICER'S SIGNATURE: W.

If this turns outto be the case we would recommend that TICHBORN be reassigned toanother area (suggest ZRMETAL) under the type of cover (e.g. JETUBA)which would offer him the needed mobility and protection for area-wide political action assignments ...". Needless to say, althoughthe latter point should be kept in mind as a last alternative inany decision regarding TICHBORN's continued relationship with thisAgency, the Branch believes that the LIREAM publication has im-proved and has a good chance to gain acceptance and expand itsinfluence throughout the hemisphere. This being the case, andas Station plans for expanding TICHBORN's activity within Mexicotake form, we hope his contribution to KUBARK objectives in Mexicoand throughout Latin America will become more substantial andrecognized.3. As a matter of information, Headquarters would appreciate   TICHBORN preparing a summary of his present cover situation, par-   ticularly his appreciation of his present residence and work   status in Mexico, and his estimate of what the future holds for   him in this regard. Further, we would appreciate any indication   the Station may have concerning TICHBORN's personal plans in regard   to his continued residence in Mexico and his future relationship   with KUBARK.Joseph P.
