Would somebody at the Embassy conceivably4 have been cut in on cable traffic in the channel that dealt with5 WIFLAT operations?6 Mr. Tweedy. Could be, certainly.7 Mr.. Baron. In other words, the purpose of sending a8 second cable on the same day which dealt with action againstLumumba was what?9 Mr. Tweedy. The simple reason I think - I say I think,10 bacause I cannot tell you so - as I said a few minutes ago,11 obviously you'd come temporarily to the end of the line on12 YQPROP. Measures taken to shore up 01WIFLAT position in the13 Congo, *Mabutu*, would have served to support the general objective,14 of containing Lumumba by whatever means. It is all part of thesame purpose.15 Once again referring to the original cable from Mr. Dulleswhich said all means, in effect, and I think the reason I'mputting this in the open channel, the open channel is still -16 Mr. Baron.. Simply the ordinary channel used betweenyourself --17 Mr. Tweedy. Still a restricted channel. RIBAT is arestricted thing, in any event. This could have been discussedwith the Ambassador or the Embassy, if any aspect of it seemedTOP SECRET3/5RWARD & PAUL410 First Street, S.E. Washington, D.C. 2000361NW

The Embassy would not have been shown this5 cable anyway. We do not show the traffic to the Embassy; we6 discussed it.7 Mr. Baron. It would have been propr for the FLAT cable8 to be conveyed in some manner?9 Mr. Tweedy. To be discussed.10 Mr. Baron. Between the Chief of Station and perhaps the11 Ambassador?12 Mr. Tweedy. Discussed; only orally.13 Mr. Baron. By contrast, the YOPROP cable clearly would14 have been restricted to the Chief of Station?15 Mr. Tweedy. I have no reason to believe that the YOPROP16 business was discussed with the Ambassador, I do not17 believe it was, although Mr. Dulles, in his original cable, sai!18 he could, if he wanted to.19 Mr. Baron. Let us introduce as the final exhibit for20 the moment Exhibit 12, a cable of October 17, 1960 going to21 Jadwin from the Chief of Station.22 In this cable, the Chief of Station is responding to your23 suggestion that a senior case officer might be dispatched to24 the Congo to handle the YOPROP operation. He says it is an25 excellent idea. Is that a fair interpretation?TOP SECRET

# TOP SECRET641 Mr. Baron. The Chief of Station then makes a suggestion2 in the fourth paragraph for equipment that might be provided if3 such a case officer were to be sent. He says, "If case officer4 sant, recommend Headquarters pouch soonest high powered foreign5 make rifle with telescopic sight and silencer. Hunting good6 here when lights right. However as hunting rifles now forbidden.7 would keep rifle in office pending opening of hunting season."8 Would you take that to be a racommendation by the Chief9 of Station, if a case officer was sent to the Congo to concen-10 trate on the YOPROP operation, he should be provided with the11 kind of weapon that would be suited for a sniper shot at12 Lumumba?13 Mr. Tweedy. Yes. Not necessarily to be fired by the14 case officer, obviously not, but at least used in the operatio..15 Mr. Baron. This reference to the hunting season can be16 taken as a reference obliquely to the fact that Lumumba was in17 UN custody and that there would not be, in effect, "openseason." or him until he showed his face outside of IN custody.18 Would that be a fair interpretation?19 Mr. Tweedy. I would not have interpreted it quite the20 same way. I would have interpreted it this way, which was if21 it, as a result of Headquarters suggestion that a rifle be22 provided to the Station, the Station would come up with an23 operational plan involving the use of the rifle which Headquarters24 would approve, and that thus, in effact, the operation was o# TOP SECRET

TOP SECRET1 by a rifle, that would be the opening of the hunting season.2 In other words, the point where they knew how it could be usedand Headquarters had approved its use.4 Mr. Baron. I have one other general question before we5 take a break, and that is, returning to *Sidney Gottliab's*6 account of his conversation with Richard Bissell about making7 preparations for carrying off an assassination against an8 African foreign leader if it were required, *Gottlieb* said in9 that context that he had higher authority for such an operation.10 *Gottlieb* also said that he clearly interpreted Bissell to mean:11 that Bissell had Presidential authority for such an operation?12 Did you have any knowledge of such a conversation between13 *Gottlieb* and Bissell from any source?14 Mr. Tweedy. I do not recall that *Gottlieb* and I ever15 discussed higher authority and approval. I do not say that it16 did not occur. If *Gottlieb* said that he had this impression17 in talking to Bissell, I cannot say no, but I cannot comment18 on it further.19 Mr. Baron.. For the moment, we have no further questions20 and we will take a break now and pick up again before the full21 Committee and Executive Session this afternoon.22 Thank you very much for your patience in going through these23 documents one by one. It has been extremely helpful to us.24 (Whereupon, at 1:40 p.m. the hearing concluded.)TOP SECRET
