# DISPATCHCLASSIFICATION: SECRETTO: Chief, Western Hemisphere DivisionFROM: Deputy Chief WB/C and Chief of Station/JMWAVESUBJECT: Chief of Station, Mexico CityREFERENCE: LIRING-1 and LIRING-2ACTION REQUIRED: NO ACTION REQUIRED1. On 6 September 1966 Station Officer Lawrence V. BARKER attended a meeting of the Comite' de la Amistad (a loosely knit, rather nebulous association used in the past primarily as a stepping stone or status by honorary consular officers. With the exception of LIRING-1 as president of the group in late 1965, representatives of JMWAVE have generally boycotted the meetings. In the belief that the documents were written to restrict so that another slate of officers might be elected, BARKER was selected to attend for JMWAVE. As it turned out, the meeting drew only nine persons and no business of any consequence was transacted.Dispatch is to report certain conclusions drawn previously met. The purpose of this letter "presided" over the meeting about LIRING-1 and LIRING-2.2. LIRING-1 impressed BARKER as being intelligent, articulate, self confident, affable and attractive. It was clear that, while LIRING-1 holds an office in the association, he intended to speak for himself and LIRING-2. He explained in a straightforward manner that he felt that the sad state of the association was due to politics; namely, that a representative of a "socialist country" (LIRING-2) had been elected president in a super-intending sector. He felt that because of this week of the other consular officers were avoiding meetings and that no amount of nice diplomatic flair could slide this fact. (This impressed BARKER as a good estimate of the situation.) LIRING-1 then said that he felt it would be best for LIRING-2 to step down so that the association could once again draw people to its meetings. He further promised that the JMWAVE representative would stick with the association as ordinary members and give there full support to the next state of officers.3. Dressed in a rather lumpy and shabby suit that appeared to have been made from old army blankets dyed dark blue, LIRING-2 made up for his appearance and slight stature by flashing a warm smile and being pleasant throughout the meeting which consisted of a sojourn at the bar followed by dinner.

# CONTINUATION OF DISPATCHCLASSIFICATION**SECRET**DISPATCH SYMBOL AND NUMBER100A-29993attempted, apparently with success to exorcise all NIMROD slang and accent from his own speech, and LIRING-1 never inspired whether BARKER had ever been to PARISIN or had any connection with various PARISIEN. He seemed genuinely interested in BARKER's initial on Mayan archaeology and anthropology and by the end of the meal was slapping BARKER on the back. While young and perhaps somewhat immature, LIRING-1 appears to be a tough character, quick-witted and thoroughly convinced that he stands for what is right. The overall impression is at variance with what had been expected from AFSPICE-1 and, to some extent, AMCANARY reports. LIRING-1 is an "odd" and while he may have plenty to learn in the intelligence trade he appears to be quite capable of learning if given sufficient time. From the opposition viewpoint he should be an effective agent developer.4. For the record, it should be noted that he has a ruddy complexion and bright blue-green eyes.5. LIRING-2, on the other hand, appears to be a rather wishy-washy sort of weakness. Although superior to LIRING-1 in the association and within LIRING itself, he took a back seat to LIRING-1 in the discussions. He seems somewhat internally introverted. He is pleasant but one gets the impression that this is a matter of diplomatic correctness.6. The above observations are all based on a one-time, two-hour encounter and may well be inaccurate. They are set forth, however, in an effort to assist in arriving at a correct assessment of key opposition personnel, primarily LIRING-1. He has the makings of a good operator and merits respect as well as study with a view to his eventual recruitment.For Willard C. CONITS

"they have a center in Tehuantepec for the training of guerrillas for Central America..." in the light of Subject Report involving the same general area and the identification of Mauricio de la MAZA Venegas by AMMUG-1 in 1964 as the Salvadoran Communist Party link with the Cuban Intelligence Service in Mexico City.2. For the information of Stations Guatemala City and San Salvador, reference B reported information from a Mexican ex-military physician of unkown reliability that the Cuban Consulate in Merida had established a group of Cubans in Ixmulcalco, Palpaico, where the Retalhuleu/Ayutla Dam is being finished, who are training Mexicans in guerrilla tactics; and reference C reported background information on Salpeso published in the Mexican Pro-Castro magazine Siempre under the byline of one Carlos Navarrete. It was noted that a person by the name of Carlos Navarrete had been reported by LIENVOY-1 in 1963 as a Guatemalan communist living in Mexico. It is now noted that the Siempre staff appear reportedly to have been taking more than usual interest of interest in the Calapa area (which includes Tehuantepec). In addition to the Siempre article on Palpaico, the 31 August 1966 issue carried no less than eleven articles and a four-page color picture spread on the area by Juan Batiz Velasquez, Horacio Quiñones, Pedro Alvarado Lang, Pablo Mondragon, Antonio FLORES, Nabor Yañez, Renato Leduc, José Cidros, and Rodolfo Manrique. One of the articles by Mondragon even reported that on the road from Tapachula, the entire Siempre team almost perished in a near-automobile accident.

HePPNER felt the Communist Party may have very close connections with reports of guerrilla training in the area of Villa of First Lieutenant of Victor Rico Galan, toward Guerrilla writer and pro-Castro activist, on 18 August 1968 for subversive activities, the information may be of background interest.3.
