# SECRETfoot surveillance to follow individuals leaving the LIMERICKInstallation, LIPSTICK-14 receives a monthly salary of $1,800.00(MN) and free rent and utilities at the LIMITED Base. His wife(LIPSTICK-27) and son (LIPSTICK-28) live with him at the LIMITEDВаве,LIPSTICK-28 until 15 July 1958 assisted his father with photo-graphic work at the LIMITED Base, However, on the abovedate he decided to resign from his LIMITED job and, strangeas it may seem, to devote full time to working on a chickenfarm, LIPSTICK-28 made this decision on his own and againstthe wishes of his father. He will continue to live at theLIMITED Base and it is believed that no security problems willresult, since any security difficulties could adversely affecthis mother and father. Although LIPSTICK-28 has beenterminated and a termination report forwarded to Headquarters,it is suggested that we ma intain his operational approval sincehe continues to live in the LIMITED Base.(3) Communications - At the present time GERENDE meetswith LIPSTICK-14 three times a week at contact points away fromthe Base. They have seven separate contact points which areused for their meetings, Usually the place of contact is pre-arranged at the previous meeting; however, a rapid means ofcommunication exists whereby GERENDE telephones LIPSTICK-14and through a pre-arranged open code, utilizing insurancepolicy numbers, sets the time and place of contact, LIPSTICK-14'sovert occupation is that of an insurance salesman and adjuster;consequently, there is a cover basis for such a telephonicconversation, A reserve system of communication with LIPSTICK-14has not yet been arranged, GERENDE has been instructed to dothis as soon as possible, thereby giving the Station a means tocontact LIPSTICK-14 directly should the need ever arise.(4) Security- Excluding KUBARK staff personnel, the LIMITEDBase is known to LIPSTICKS-2, 14, 27 and 28 and to OliverG. SCANTLING and Raymond H. GERENDE and possibly toLIPSTICK-12 (CERENDE's opinion). Since LIPSTICK-14 hasknown LIMEWATER (LIFEAT Project) for many years and sinceLIMEWATER is LIPSTICK-2's brother, it is important to recognizethat the desirable degree of compartmentation between LIPSTICK/LIMITED and LIFEAT probably does not exist. Although LIMEWATERmust be aware of LIPSTICK-14's and 2's PRPRIME employment,it has not been possible to ascertain the extent of LIMEWATER'Sknowledge about their specific activities, and vice versa, LIPSTICK-14SECRET

SECRETworked with James O. AYCALL (LIMESTONE) during WW-II; however, he claims that the only members of AYCALL's family that he ever met was AYCALL's "alieged wife," Since she saw him only one time many years ago, LIPSTICK-14 does not believe that she would recognize him now.Neither GERENDE nor LIPSTICK-14 are aware that KUBARK owns the LIMITED Base House. The extent of their knowledge is that LIMOUSINE is the owner and we simply rent from him,(5) Recommendations - It is recommended that GERENDE continue to meet with LIPSTICK-14 and to supervise his operation. In this connection, GERENDE has been instructed to reorganize his existing communications arrangements with LIPSTICK-14 to include a new regular system, a rapid non-scheduled system and a reserve system. Also, GERENDE is to review with LIPSTICK-14 their cover reasons for mecting and knowing each other and to be prepared to use this cover story should they ever be apprehended together.LIPSTICK-14 was instructed on 8 August 1958 to cease all social and business contact with LIPSTICK-2. Oliver G. SCANTLING, who has previously handled LIPSTICK-14 and sees him occasionally even now, has been directed to cease all contact with the LIMITED Base and LIPSTICK-14 except when approved by the Case Officer, (NOTE: It is necessary at times for SCANTLING to debrief LIPSTICK-14 for LIMESA leads).b. LILYRIC(1) Target - Stationary photographic surveillance of persons entering and leaving the LIMERICK installations,(2) Personnel - LIJERSEY-5 is personnel manager of a Mexican affiliate of a large PBPRIME company. In addition to serving as a spotter for potential surveillance team members, he also serves as the cutout for the LILYRIC Base, GERENDE manages and directs the LILYRIC Base through LIJERSEY-5. LIJERSEY-5 maintains direct contact with LIJERSEY-2, the Base House operator, and his wife, LIJERSEY-12, who does most of the photographic work, LIJERSEY-5 is a PBPRIME citizen, He is paid a monthly salary of $1,000.00 (MN).SECRET

SECRETLIJERSEY-2 is the LILYRIC Base operator. He is a Captain in the Mexican Army Reserve and is also employed by Colgate-Palmolive Peet Company as an industrial engineer. He receives a monthly salary of $1,000.00 (MN) and he and his wife live rent and utilites free in the ILILYRIC Base.LIJERSEY-12 is the wife of LIJERSEY-2. She does most of the photographic and reporting work at the LILYRIC Base and has proven herself to be a capable and worthwhile asset. It has been necessary for her to become proficient in the LILYRIC work since her husband works at his regular job during the day. She receives a monthly salary of $800.00 (MN).(3) Communications - GERENDE contacts LIJERSEY-5 twice weekly at prearranged contact points during the late afternoon hours, LIJERSEY-5 contacts LIJERSEY-2 two to three times weekly at prearranged car contact points and receives the "take" from the LILYRIC Base. On occasion GERENDE has contacted LIJERSEY-2 directly, but this procedure is used only when LIJERSEY-5 is out of town or otherwise not available, GERENDE does not know LIJERSEY-12 or vice versa. No reserve system of communications exists whereby a Station officer could contact LIJERSEY-2 directly should the need arise; however, GERENDE has been instructed to set up such a system of communications. The same will be done with LIJERSEY-5, although he is known to several Station officers and little difficulty would be experienced in contacting him directly.(4) Security - The security of the LILLYRIC Base appears, at least on paper, to be in better shape than the Limited or LICALLA Bases, Insofar as the Case Officer has been able to determine, the only indigenous agents aware of the LILYRIC Base are GERENDE, LIJERSEYS 2, 5 and 12, and LIPSTICKS 38 and 40, and all of these individuals have a close connection with the operation of the Ease. The only tie-in the LILYRIC Base has with the LIPSTICK operations is through GERENDE.(5) Recommendations - GERENDE has been instructed to change his meeting plans with LIJERSEY-5 and to review the communications set-up between LIJERSEY-5 and LIJERSEY-2 (L-5 and L-2 are long-time friends and, consequently, the cover problem is minimized). A staggered schedule of coverage of the LIMERICK target between LILYRIC and LIMITED was initiated on 18 August 1958. Although the operators of these two bases are unaware of the existence of the other, a suitable cover story has been worked out to satisfy anySECRET

SECRETcuriosity that LIPSTICK-14 and LIJERSEYS-2 and 12 may have. This procedure is believed destrable due to the confining nature of the photographic tasks and the lack of additional personnel to assist at each of the bases. Also, this staggered schedule of coverage should reduce some of the duplication presently coming in from the two bases,c. LICALLA(1) Target - Stationary photograp hic surveillance of persons and activities in the garden area of the LIMERICK installation.(2) Personnel - LIPSTICK-39, his wife and three small children live at die LICALLA Base. He is an accountant for a local bus line and works at his cover job in the evenings. LIPSTICK-39 does an excellent and conscientious job of photographic coverage at the LICALLA Base, In addition to the photos he takes, he writes a narrative description of the events which take place in the target's garden area. He receives a monthly salary of $2,000.00 (MN) and free rent at the LICALLA Base,(3) Communications - GERENDE meets LIPSTICK-39 twice weekly, usually on Tuesdays and Thuradays. They have four contact points, one of which is selected at each meeting for use for the next meeting. In the event that contact is not established, GERENDE has the initiative in contacting LIPSTICK-39 by phoning him at the bus line office during the evenings. Then, by prearranged open code, a meeting site and time are agreed on, Since Oliver G. SCANTLING is also acquainted with LIPSTICK-39, it would be possible to contact him through SCANTLING should something happen to GERENDE. However, to facilitate proper and secure communications procedures, GERENDE has been directed to establish a reserve system of communications with Lipstick-39, using the customary oral and physical bonafides.(4) Security - The most serious security problem concerning LICALLA is the fact that LIPSTICK-39 is the brother of LIPSTICK-47 (the first agent arrested by the local police agency during the recent LIPSTICKflap). Although it is generally believed by Station officers that LIPSTICK-39's name was not mentioned by LIPSTICK-47 nor that any indication was given concerning LIPSTICK-39's job, it must be understood that should the local police agency decide later to interrogate LIPSTICK-47, the probability exists of compromising LIPSTICK-39 and LICALLA. The Station sees no way to overcome this possibility.SECRET
[104-10219-10153.pdf — page 101]
# SECRETIt is important to note here that LICALLA occupies one of the four LIMUST properties. While it is believed that LIPSTICK-39 does not know that KUBARK owns the Base or has anything to do with the other three houses, it is entirely conceivable that should one of the local police agencies or the LIMERICK personnel become aware of LICALLA activities, they could very easily arrive at some logical conclusions about all of the LIMUST property. This would be detrimental, if not fatal, to our aims. However, another Station viewpoint on this same problem is that if compromised, LICALLA would divert suspicion from, rather than to, LIMUST. Should one of the local police agencies begin an investigation which might involve LIMUST and LICALLA, then LICALLA could be sacrificed to protect the LIMUST Base. These possibilities become somewhat theoretical and perhaps impractical due to the lack of predictibility of the local police agencies, but nevertheless must be weighed one against the other.In view of the apparent importance of the LIMESA/LIMUST operation a lot of thought and discussion have transpired at the Station about continuing the LICALLA operation in us present location or suspending it for the immediate future and attempting to find another suitable location away from the LIMUST property. A sound argument can be made for terminating the base since such an alternative might have the effect of limiting any knowledge LIPSTICK-39 may have about the LIMESA/LIMUST Installation. However, the termination of a productive base such as LICALLA would require an explanation to LIPSTICK-39 which could not help bur leave him a bit suspicious. For Headquarters information, the local rental laws are such that LIPSTICK-39 would not be able to comprehend why we did not insist on him maintaining "squatters rights" (as stated previously, LIPSTICK-39 apparently does not know that we own LICALLA or even have an interest in any of the other LIMUST properties, which can easily be done in Mexico. Therefore, any attempt to terminate LICALLA might cause more of a security problem with LIPSTICK-39 than permitting LICALLA to operate as it is now. Another possibility would be terminating LIPSTICK-39 and putting another agert in the present LICALLA Base, If this measure were followed, it would not eliminate the fact that LIPSTICK-39, even if terminated, would still know of the existance of the present LICALLA Base. Still another possibility would be to terminate LIPSTICK-39 and the LICALLA Base; however, since LICALLA and the other LIMUST properties are ostensibly owned by one man, LIMOUSINE, suspicions and investigations could still lead to LIMUST.(5) Recommendations - The Station is inclined not to "rock theSECRET

SECRETboat" at this stage of the game and suggests that we maintain LICALLA at its present location and with its present operator, LIPSTICK-39. One alternative appears to be about cs good as another in this case, and it is an acknowledged fact that LICALLA, at its present location, is a worthwhile and productive asset. Headquarters ideas and comments on the LICALLA Base would be appreciated.At the present time it is planned to move LIPSTICK-39 and family to a furnished apartment when the time comes to remodel the LICALLA Base. After completion of the remodeling, LIPSTICK-39 and family will return to the present LICALLA Base.d. PHOTO TRUCK(1) *Target* - Investigative asset used for taking curreptitious photographs of persons, places and things that are from time to time of interest to the Station and Headquarters.(2) *Personnel* - LIPSTICK-2, as indicated by the low numerical designation of his cryptonym, has been employed by KUBARK for several years. At the present time LIPSTICK-2 is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the photographic surveillance truck. He is also used occasionally to spot and rent operational apartments. In the past, LIPSTICK-2 has served as team leader of a low level surveillance team (which was compromised and subsequently disbanded), as a LIFEAT line inspector (when he was not busy with the photo truck), and as a static surveillance man (I.e., used as an outside sentry during the March 1958 entry of the LIMUST Base by KUTUBE/D, KURIOT and KUCLUB technicians, (NOTE: LIPSTICK-2 was assigned the task of watching the entire area during the day for any unusual activity on the part of target personnel. He was not told that he was to watch a specific house. He was dismissed from his static surveillance before dusk and the Headquarters technicians did not enter LIMUST until after 2030 hours.) LIPSTICK-2 is the brother of LIMEWATER (LIFEAT Project) and LIPSTICK-34 (LIPSTICK Surveillance team member) is LIPSTICK-2's wife's nephew. LIPSTICK-2's cover is buying and selling cars; however, about the only bustness he has in this connection is when he buys and sells cars for KUBARK. His cover is quite weak. He receives a monthly salary of $3,200.00 (MN) plus $600.00 (MN) per month for the use of his personal car.SECRET

# SECRETLIPSTICK-24 does not know GERENDE and, presumably, knows only LIPSTICK-2, with whom he works on the photo truck. His cover is as a salesman of electrical appliances; however, he does not pursue his cover job to the desirable extent, LIPSTICK-24 was recruited by LIPSTICK-2 about one year ago and is currently receiving a salary of $1,000.00 (MN) per month, Since he has now worked a year for the Station, and performed satisfactorily, his salary should be ratsed to $1,200.00 (MN) per month (LIEMPTY will provide for this increaве).(3) Communications - GERENDE meets LIPSTICK-2 two to three times a week, These meetings are arranged by phone and take place at previously selected contact points which can be referred to in telephonic conversations by Innocent sounding code names. LIPSTICK-2 also knows GERENDE's true name, where he lives, and his phone number. In the past he has had occasion to telephone GERENDE at the latter's home. LIPSTICK-2 knows DINGLEY, and could, in an emergency situation, contact DINGLEY. However, GERENDE has been instructed to arrange a complete communica- ttons plan with LIPSTICK-2, including a reserve means of contact. For security reasons, GERENDE has been instructed to inform LIPSTICK-2 that his only contact is with GERENDE and that in the future he is not to contact anyone else in the organization without GERENDE's permission. Also, that should contact with GERENDE be disrupted, he is to await for the higher echelon to establish contact with him (all agents under GERENDE are being so instructed). This is particularly important in the case of ipstick-2, since he has by-passed GERENDE in two or three Instances in the past.(4) Security - Probably the most serious security situation involving the photo truck, LIPSTICK-2 and Lipstick-24 is the basic knowledge of the LIPSTICK surveillance team that such an asset exists, even to the point that one of the team members (LIPSTICK-34) is the listed owner of the photo truck. The personal knowledge of LIPSTICK-2 about the LIFEAT operation also represents a security hazard of the first class. For example, if LIPSTICK-2 were compromised and arrested as a result of his activities, there is a possibility that he could compromise his brother, LIMEWATER, the LIMITED Base and LIPSTICK-14, GERENDE and our interest in the highly sensitive LIMESA/LIMUST operation, (NOTE: According to the LIFEAT Case Officer and the former LIPSTICK Case Officer, both LIMEWATER and LIPSTICK-2 have been reminded on several occasions during the past few years that they were not to discuss any aspect of their operations with each other. Also, LIPSTICK-2, to the best of the Station'sSECRET

LIJERSEY(1) Target - Foot surveillance and investigative support ofother Station operations,(2) Personnel - LIJERSEY-4 ts of a low social class andlives with his mother in a slum area of Mexico City. He tathe sole support for his mother and several younger brothersand sisters. He is described by GERENDE as having a lot ofambition and a strong desire to improve his standard of livingand position in life, The Station has found him to be a goodobserver and, consequently, adequate for static surveillancework. Although he now has his drivers license, he is not acapable driver and probably will never develop into one,GERENDE has been encouraging LIJERSEY-4 to obtain employmentas a salesman to supplement his KUBARK income of $1,000.00(MN) and to establish himself in a cover job, However, LIJERSEY-4has not yet obtained such employment. It is the Station'sopinion that LIJERSEY-4 is definitely an asset of limited valueand will never develop into the high-calibre surveillance assetwhich the Station really needs.LIJERSEY-8's situation is about the same as LIJERSEY-4's.He lives with his family and is currently taking highschoolcourses (LIJERSEY-4 is doing the same). He is not an imaginativetalker and has difficulty making up cover stories and spur-of-the-moment excuses and explanations the vital qualifications for agood surveillance man. He is the best driver of the three LIJERSEY

# SECRETteam members and with more practice will probably develop into a capable and dependable driver. LIJERSEY-8 has recently shown a commendable amount of initiative where his awer situation is concerned. He has obtained a job as a commission salesman for UNDERWOOD typewriters and, according to GERENDE, is making a substantial amount of "pin" money. However, as in the case of LIJERSEY-4, LIJERSEY-8 is at best an asset of only limited value. LIJERSEY-8 also receives a salary of $1,000.00 (MN) per month.LIJERSEY-13 does not know LIJERSEYS-4 and 8 and vice versa. LIJERSEY-13 is better dressed than the other two team members and can pass as a better educated and more socially flexible Individual, He speaks fairly good English. He performs pretext Investigation assignments with facility and imagination and is adept at making up cover stories, In brief, he makes a good Impression on the people he interviews, He is not a good driver and is too nervous to develop into one. His salary is $1,000,00 (MN) per month.(3) Communications - GERENDE has daily contact arrangements with the three LIJERSEYS. Prearranged meeting places are used on designated days of each week and the LIJERSEYS are instructed to go to each meeting. They have standing instructions to continue going to their meeting sites for two weeks; if they have not been contacted during that period of time, they can discontinue their communications plan and await contact by GERENDE or another appropriately selected agent at their respective homes. None of the LIJERSEYS have home telephones; hence, it is impossible to arrange any type of communications using this means, GERENDE is currently in the process of setting up new and more complete communications arrangements with the three LIJERSEYS.(4) Securiry - Insofar as knowledge of other operations, personnel and assets is concerned, the LIJERSEYS appear to have the best security of any of the operations handled by GERENDE. New communications plans with the LIJERSEYS will do much toward increasing security and ability to meet contingencies. GERENDE Wl be instructed to give refresher training to all three LIJERSEYS in operational security, cover and communications. The major danger existing with the LIJERSEY team, and with any surveillance team, is the possibility of compromise and arrest by one of the local police agencies. Should this happen, GERENDE and his other operations would be placed in considerable danger.SECRET
[104-10219-10153.pdf — page 106]
# SECRETFor this reason, it is not advisable to have GERENDE connected with a surveillance team and also contacting and directing the sensitive photo base houses. Therefore, until such time as a suitable asset can be developed or acquired to take over the LIJERSEY team, their actual surveillance assignments will be kept at the mtaimum,(5) Recommendations - It is suggested that the LIJERSEY framework be used for the recruitment ci at least three competent and higher class local nationals for use on surveillance assignments, After the recruitment of such individuals, it may be suggested that LIJERSEYS-4 and 8 be terminated, LIJERSEY-13 should remain as an independent investigative asset to conduct "credit" and other type of inquiries which he can do without help from other agents. LIJERSEY-5 has already been asked to spot prospective candidates of a higher social standing for use on a new surveillance team; however, even under optimum conditions, one and a half years will be required to get such a team functioning. In order to recruit the type of team member that will be most worthwhile to the Station, we must plan to pay a minimum starting salary of $1,600.00 (MN) per month. The cost of living in Mexico is continually on the rise and where $1,000.00 (MN) was a good salary one to two years ago, it really is not adequate today.LIFEAT(1) Target - Conversations coming from two telephone taps, BGMORNING and Cuban exiles.(2) Personnel - GERENDE lives in the apartment where these two lines are maintained, He personally processes the take from the lines and passes it to OUSLER for Station dissemination to Robert B. RIGGS (BGMORNING) and Calude K. Shyrock (Cubans). GERENDE, in accordance with LIFEAT procedures, is supposed to remain in this apartment seven days a week, However, this is impossible due to his other operational assignments and activities,(3) Communications - GERENDE meets daily with OUSLER to pass the LIFEAT "take" and to discuss other operational matters.(4) Security - It is not a good security practice to have a LIFEAT montior working on anything except LIFEAT. Other duties, which GERENDE certainly has, limit one's capability for maimaining the required security alertness for telephoneSECRET
