ARTIME said
hoped he would not do anything of the kind.
he had also considered all the possibilities and concluded
there was no point in his being childish and trying to

S.
ARTIME accepts the decision and vill cooperate
in a phase-out program. He does not understand the
rationale, and, of course, does not agine with the
decision, but he acknowledges our prerogative to make it.
If we really wish still to be friends, he is willing,

and their families until they can rehabilitate and
resettle themselves, and (b) do everything possible to
get his parents out of Cuba.
The major elements to be considered in a phase-
out were discussed with the following results:
Personnel. The first priority is support
payments to dependents which were due 1 March in
the total amount of $100,00. This must be cone
moonest if ARTIME is to maintain control of the
situation. The next most immediate problem is

filtrated "black" from the United States with our

seemed as realistic and effective as could be hoped
for.

of April. The security force will be returned
during April and will be paid a mustering out pay-
ment on 1 May. This will terminate the project.
The cover story which ARTINE intends to use
for demobilization is to inform his men that their
mothership is out of commission and will require about
six weeks for repairs. This is true enough so that
it will be believed. He will then grant leave to all
men with dependents to get their personal affairs in

publicize the fact that it is less expensive and
better for morale to send them on leave than to have
men sitting around the camps with no operations to
run. When all the first contingent are back home,
individual notice will be given each to start looking
for other work as operations have been postponed.
They will be told that the salary payment of 1 April.
will be the last one and should be considered as a
Bustering out bonus. ARTIME Feels this method will
soften the impact and lower the noise level as the
men will be home with their families and scattered
throughout the community instead of being in an
organized group in Central America when they realize
they are being demobilized.
b. Funds. ARTINE had done his homework and
brought with him facts and figures upon which phase-
out costs could be estimated. These cost estimates
are outlined below:

Veapons. ARTIME agreed that it would be in
nobody's interest for his weapons to fall into the wrong
hands. He was asked for ideas on disposition of the
arms and came up with the following suggestion which
appears to be an excellent one. The mothership, MV
BANTA MARIA, is in need of repairs and must go into
shipyard. Tentative arrangements have been made to
put her in the yards at Galveston, Texas, some time
in March or April. ARTIME can order his security detail
to store the arua aboard the ship for "security" reasons
before she leaves for the yard. They will simply re-
main on board when the ship leaves and we can take
control of the ship and the weapons from that point on.
d. Maritime,
(1) MV SANTA MARIA. See above. The ship:
would be sailed from Monkey Point with a contract
crew supplied by Chester, Blackburn, & Roder, Inc.
of New York, who are agents for the ship's owner,
Libernic Corporation, a CIA proprietary company……
One of ARTIME's senior officers would accompany
the ship as his representative, "with orders to
turn over control of it and the arms upon its
arrival at Galveston. CIA officers, possibly
documented as Customs officials, would accept
custody and Office of Logistics could recover the
weapons and any other equipment which might be
shipped by this method. The ship would then be
disposed of according to Headquarters wishes at
any time after 17 April when the charter arrange-
ment with General SOMOZA expires and the ship
legally reverts to control of the owner.

Case officer recommends we go along
with him on this. at least for the time being, as
it could be sticky legally and might antagonize
him at the time when we most need his cooperation.
In the end, he should be reasonable about disposi-
tion of these craft if we snoot square with him
in the meantime.
(3) Support craft, LCMs, Barges, etc. Dispo
sition arrangements to be worked out together on

Aircraft.
(1) DC-3. ARTIME is willing to release the
aircraft back to its "owners," TASA, & CIA pro-
prietary company in Panama, However, one month':
charter payment of $1,250 was due 1 March, and
another will be due by the time the aircraft can
be returned. ARTINE was reluctant to bt the plane
go back without payment, but also reluctant to
squeeze the $2,500 out of his budget. Case officer
voiced his opinion that the owner would probably
be glad to get the plane back and would not likely
think it worth going to court. However, in view
of the fact that it would be a "closed-circuit"
transaction and would actually cost the Government
nothing, it is recommended that a special authoriza-
tion of $2,500 be channeled to ARTIME for payment
in order to maintain ARTINE's reputation for fiscal
probity. He will surely appreciate this gesture.
(2) 1-20 Beaver and Cessna-180. These
aircraft technically belong to ARTIME's group and
recovery would be a sticky matter, legally.
ARTINE hopes to hold control of these aircraft
for the time being, and it is recommended that
we go along with him, saving disposition arrange,
ments until later.
ARTIME again emphasized at the close of the meeting
that he must have soonest the March payments for families
as an absolute minimum, before he could face his people and
maintain control of them in order to insure an orderly phane-
out program.

the status of termination of AMWORLD and the plans
therefor. He stated specifically that he was pleased.
with the cooperation of AMBIDDY-1 and AMJAVA-4 and would
make it a point to inform higher levels in the Agency and
the U. B. Government and put a good word for them on the
record. He also directed that they be told:
He personally appreciates their cooperation
and the good sense, goodwill and maturity they
displayed in accepting and executing the U. 8.
Government decision to terminate their operations.
He wants to meet with them personally, at
the earliest mutually convenient time, in order to
discuss the situation with them.
After termination of the paramilitary project
is completed, he has some other ideas for ventures of
mutual interest which he wishes to pursue with them.
The gist of the above points had been passed to
AMBIDDY-1 and AMJAVA-4 previously by Mr. Jenkins, and on
the night of 18 March he confirmed by telephone to AMJAVA-4.

In brief, we do not welcome an activation of the movement's center

We have reasons for believing that the host government likewise would probably
be embarrassed if AMBIDDY 1 chose Venezuela as a base for whatever program be

President LECHI are significant in this context.
Since we must assume that AMBIDDY 1 has alluded to his close ties with
RK (and more specifically with. BECKHOFF), the Venezuelan security services
well jump to the conclusion that AMWORLD is in fact a KUBARK operation:
sooner or later we would be forced to disavow AMRIDDY 1, a circunstance of
hich he would be bound to learn with consequent embitterment. All these
predictable developments, Caracas is most anxious to forestall. Beedless to

since it involves à mua thư: both admire and who (in their opinion) has serve

For the above reasons, would welcome indeed if formal and
institution ties between AMBIDDY 1 and AKTAVA 4. could be put in abeyance,
least to the extent that AMRIDDY 1 be prevailed upon to pass up Venezuela as

could of course drop discreet site to our Venezuelan liaison contacts
suggesting the invisability of affording ANBIDDY 1 and his associates
sanctuary in Venezuela, we would only entertain that distasteful prospect as
a last resort and with the full approval of Headquarters.
5. Another approach, only slightly less unsatisfactory, would be to
restrict AMBIDDY 1's radius of activity to an extent tantamount to denying
his all freedom of political action while in Venezuela. But all in all, it
- would probably be best for KUBARK if ANGLDDY 1 could be dissuaded from going
through with his proposed move in a mazer which does not hurt his pride and
which does not alienate him from KUBARK. Headquarters may be able to suggest
palatable alternatives to Venezuela.
6.' As regards AKJÁVA 4, we share some of Headquarters misgivings about
surfacing him to Liaison. What prompted us to suggest this approach was a
desire to overcome the difficulties which would be facing AMJAVA 4 in any
case should he decide to make his home here. We are inclined to doubt that
be could obtain permission to enter Venesuela in immigrant status without
powerful intercession. He would be used by the Station on projects which
we (and presumably the host government) view as compatible with Venezuela's
national security intereste.
7. Some of the doubts raised by Headquarters are altogether valid and
are considered before we made our proposal. We are least concerned, however,
issues of dual loyalty and dual control etc, because it happens to be ona of
our objectives in building a more durable relationship with Maison, esp DIGKFOL,
to entice them into joint ventures where dual control does exist. We find AMJAVA 4
temperamentally suited (esp since his basic loyalty belongs to UBARK) to serve
as an operational link between Station and liaison, without acting to the
detriment of either. Although the tenor of our relationship with DICEPOL bas
undergone a notable improvement, there are still deep-rooted reservations and
suspicious which a man of AMJAVA, 4's personality traits sight help to dispaż.
8. With regards to the substance of our operations against: PERUNUN,
especially those which are CB-oriented, there is a natural gruity of intereste
between ODYOKE and Venezuels which renders joint pursuits in fact most desirable.
More likely than not, Dikey will do Station the favor of fecilitating the
admission of AHJAVA ↳ and of providing him with viable cover, mytė including
official (DICEPOL) documentation, and let it go at that.. He rather doubt that

William Äire, the ice-President in charge of maritina Sam in his absence.
ACIDOY/1 has always had ultimate control of the ARC finds and has
simply been exercising closer personal control of them sirce A/2 is gone.
ANBIDDT/1 told me that he is selling off some of the ecigment which is not
suitable for his current program of Community Development/Civic Action in
Latin America in order to raise money to obtain equipment and raterials
that will be needed. for mamle, he has bought 22 acres of farm land near
West Palm 
Beach to establish a model farm for training purposes. He has
been conducting evening classes for several works for about 20 FRR men, who
are working full time at other jobs, in rural Community Development. He
has gotten some training materials and advice from fra. George Lodge of
Harvard, who, according to letters from hir, appears to be enthusiastic
about his contact with 1/1 and his organization.
2.0
A/1 says his only political plans at this time are to try to continue holding
his movement (HRK) together while he charges its emphasis and direction
toward the constructive activity of help in Community development for
friendly Latin American countries and away from the PM emphasis for which
we supported him in the ANWORLD program. The farm in Nicaragua to cultivate
rice is a planned cooperative on the east coast (Bluefields - Monkey Point)
to complement a shrimp fishing cooperative and boat yard at Bluefields
which he has already discussed with President Schick, who requested him to
go ahead. A/1 and the NRR part in these enterprises is purely advisory in
training local residents and helping them to organize and build facilities.
1/4 reports, and A/1 himself admits, that he is simply feeling around now
trying to get all the information and ideas he can about this new field of
endeavor. (For example, A/1 just bought 300 baby chicks to work with in
order to find out they can best fit into a rural develoment program.).
2.d. Of course, AMWORLD is finished and all members of the orgmization know it.
1/1 and 1/4 have both told me they have made it clear to all hands and have
advised them to get jobs immediately in order to support their dependents.
Most of them have done so, several going back to work for WAVE, for instance..
The death of AMWORLD and the reorganization necessary to go into a new
phase (Community Development) is no doubt causing a crisis in the MRR, but
both leaders believe the movement will weather the crisis and survive. Mr.
Tom Clines, who talked with other members of the ERR, believes the same
thing, and is certain it will survive with enough support from Washington
to pay for publicity, travel, and administrative costs.
3.a
There are 5 men at Monkey Point where one cache (a platoon) of weapons is
stored. The other two are located at Bluefields and at Managua, under
control of the Nicaraguan National Guard. The HRR delegate at Managua is
the only person who can authorize their release, and this must be on
written authority of A/1 and approved by General Somoza, The 5 mon at
Monkey Point are simply station-keepers who, in addition to guarding the
camp and weapons, are teaching the local Indians to read and write, to
operate and maintain basic machinery, and to plant crops to raise their
A. standard of living. T, are has been no evidence from any source of any

It is not clear what this source is trying to report, but presumably he is
trying to indicate that 4/1 is hoarding the AORLD money he has been
issued for his personal use. Anyone who knows 1/1 knows that the last
thing he will over give up is his magazine and radio broadcasts. The
ability to make speeches and have them printed and see his picture
reproduced is the top requirement in his wakeup. The next most impor
tart requirement is the capability to travel and hob-nob with Heads of

has insisted on retaining these capabilities for A/1 to use in behalf
of the Agency. They are certainly more important to him than money,
as such, concerning which he is incredibly naive and disinterested.
is notorious for having to have somebody else go around with him to be
sure he has necessary documents and money, otherwise he would never have
a dime in his pocket. I checked further on this point with 1/4 at our
last meeting on 27 June and he said there was no evidence of 1/1
pilfering the till, the problem if any was simply honest mismanagement.
We should remember that 1/1 has been paid a salary, with Hqs agreement
and at our suggestion for that matter, of $1,000 a month. AHWORLD/2
made it a point to deposit the check in A/1's personal account every
month, and A/2 maintained de facto control of the account. A/1 told
me this incident because he was amazed to find when A/2 left for Spain
and turned the records of the account over toA/1, he found that he had
4 or 5 thousand dollars in the bank, the most he had ever owned in his
life. In addition to this salvary, it should be remembered that A/1
is a co-author of the "Bay of Pigs" boold, which was worth several
thousand dollars to each of the 4 co-authors.
Note:
This line of reporting has been going on for at least the past 2 years in
the case of A/1 and is typical of the incessant gossip and character
assassination within the Cuban exile community in Miami that has been
going on for the last 5 years. While certainly no paragon of virtue or
of efficiency, it will take more than this to convince me A/1 is a
crook. In the first place, AMJAVA/4 would be the first one to put the
finger on him if he started misappropriating MRR funds or otherwise
playing games that would hurt the movement. In the second place, 1/1 is
too disorganized to be an effective crook, even if he tried, and it
would show up in more concrete form then this report.

Background Sketch on Dr.
Manuel
Artime Buesa
CAP
1. Manuel Artime Buesa, a non-practicing medical
doctor, began his political activities in Cuba during the
year 1939 when he participated in the formation of a civic
action type program known as the "Comandos Rurales." The
Comandos Rurales actively participated with the Castro.
regine during its initial agrarian reform, but eventually..
broke with it due to Castro's shift to Harxism-Leninism.
It was at this point that Artime formed the Movimiento de
Recuperacion Revolucionaria (HRR, Hovement for the Recovery
of the Revolution), a political organization which he heads
to date. The degree of Artime's activities in the civic
action program was reflected by the fact that Artine; prior®
to his break with Castro, had been appointed a deputy in
the Instituto Nacional de la Referaa Agregaria (INRA) for
Oriente Province. Artime's first contact with the Agency
took place just prior to his open break with Castro and he
was exfiltrated from the island by the Agency. Artime
dedicated himself to the continued development of the MRR
until called upon by the Agency to be the political repre-
sentative for the Cuban Brigade 2508 which landed at the
Bay of Pigs. Artime was captured and sentenced to be
exsented. This was later commuted by Castro to life
imprisonment. In 1962 Artime was among those repatriated
this country under the prisoner exchange.
3. In mid-1963 the Agency again asked Artime to head
an autonomous paramilitary organization made up and trained
exclusively by Cubans and funded by the Agency.

up a series of training camps in Central America. Using
the political banner of the MRR Artime's group conducted
several paramilitary operations against the island of Cuba
with varying degrees of success. In early 1965 by order
of the 303 Committee it was decided to phase out the Agency's
support to Artime since it was felt that paramilitary opera-
tions against Cuba were futile and ineffective. Although he
disagreed with this decision, Artime has been fully coopers
tive in disbanding his organization. The paramilitary wing
of the MRR is now completely disbanded, and a few political
representatives remain in Central America and Florida.
Subject is currently attempting to re-enlist the
Agency's support in order to keep his political organization
intact. If approved by the 303 Committee, Artine's MRE
will receive a small subsidy. Artine also plans to establish
civic action program along the lines of the Comandos Rurales
in various Central and South American countries. In such an
endoavor Artime would be strictly on his own without any
support from the Agency.
4. It is in order to discuss this future program that
Artime is anxious to meet with Mr. George C. Lodge, Jr.
The undersigned, who is subject's current case officer, is
ready and willing to contact Mr. Lodge directly and travel
to Cambridge should this be useful. Artime permanently
resides in Miami, Florida and his telephone number is:

mitted to us, would enable him to keep the MRR alive as a
recognized exile political organization, and would allow him,
personally, to maintain his status as an important exile
leader. This would, in turn, continue his access to heads of
state and other leading political figures in Latin America.
2. Pending action by the 303 Committee, it is recommended
that you grant approval to fund Artime and the MRR for the
month of June 1965, on the basis of the following budget
estimate:
MRR delegates
Spain
Honduras
Guatemala

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT:
Contact of Manuel Artime with Professor George
Lodge and with Col. Barrientos of Bolivia
1. I talked with Manuel Artime by phone the night
of 4 June. He said he had received a call from Professor
Lodge that afternoon but was not at home to talk with him.
(This was obviously a follow-up from the offer made to
Artime by Chief, WH to put him and Lodge together on his
proposed civic action activities.) I told him there was
no reason he should not return the call and arrange for a
- meeting with Lodge at their mutual convenience.
3. Artime said that was his first reaction, but
before he could make the call another message had come in
from Col. Barrientos of Bolivia asking if he could visit
the country for the benefit of his advice and counsel and
offering to send a Bolivian Air Force plane to pick him up
and bring him to La Paz. I asked if he were acquainted
with Barrientos or an expert on Bolivia and he said he knew
no more about either of them than what he had read in the
papers. He had no idea of the reason for the invitation,
but wanted to check with us and find out if we had any
requirements for him in case we wanted him to make the visit.
I told him I would check with Chief, WH next morning and
call him back.
3. On the morning of 5 June I called Artime. He said
Professor Lodge had called him at 0700 that morning and told
him he was interested in getting together with him, Lodge
said he would be in Panama on 14 June, and Artime said he
planned to be travelling in that area at that time and could
easily meet him there. Artime told Lodge he was willing to
make a trip to Boston to see him earlier and that after such
a preliminary meeting, the next meeting in Panama would probably
be more useful. Lodge seemed delighted and invited Artime

to lunch with his on 9 June. I suggested to Artime that
he plan to meet Lodge on 9 June, stop in Washington on the
way home where I could meet with him (and furnish him a
I
briefing on Bolivia which he desperately requested).
suggested he send a message to Barrientos saying he could
be in Panama on 11 June and could see Barrientos as soon
thereafter as transportation could be arranged. (Artime has
a visit with President Robles of Panama scheduled about that
time and can work it in, together with the meeting with
Lodge on 14 June in Panama.)
4. Artime said he had found out the background of the
invitation from Barrientos. One of Barrientos' trusted
aides had been to Washington or New York and in passing
through Miami enroute home heard a MRR radio broadcast
about countering subversion, civic action, etc. that
attracted his attention. There was also a brief analysis
of the situation in Bolivia which appealed to him as the
best-balanced hehad heard. He thereupon started asking
questions about the MRR and Artime and was referred to one
of Artime's people who turned over some copies of "Tridente".
(magazine of the MRR). The aide remarked that he was going
to report to Barrientos of his discovery of a Cuban exile
group that seemed knowledgeable of Castro and Communist
subversion operations and had some useful ideas of how to
counter them. Two days later Artime received the invitation
from Barrientos.

1. The ANOTS have recently submitted two short reports
providing 
some 
information about AMWORLD and AMBIDDY-1 activities.
2. ANOT-84 reported the following in Report DD-1414, 19 May
1965, 
which he had acquired 
from Iden A, whose ultimate source of
information was AMWORLD-2:
.a.
AMWORLD-2 left for New York with his family on 15
May 1965, 
this 
being his first step towards disconnecting
himself from AMWORLD. 
Before he left, he handed over to
AMBIDDY-1 the AMWORLD money 
which he had in the bank.
.b. AMWORLD-2 said that AMBIDDY-1 was devoting all his
attention 
to obtaining 
money by the sale of military equipment
which he had at the 
camps. AMBIDDY-1 had already realized
U.8. $30,000 in this manner 
and hoped to raise still another
$30,000. AMBIDDY
-1 currently had all the AMWORLD money under
his absolute control 
and said he intended to act as treasurer
of the 
organization.
AKBIDDY-1 gave the impression of not being involved
with any 
political 
plan. Occasionally he talked to friends
about 
interviews with his "contacts" and about a budget for
propaganda. Other 
times he gave consideration to propositions
of friends, such as 
the Spaniard who acts as his chauffeur
and 
secretary, concerning various business deals. He also talks
of buying a farm 
in Nicaragua to cultivate rice, etc.
d. The general opinion within AMWORLD is that the
organization is entering a crisis and, with the separation of
AMWORLD-2 from 
the organisation, ANWORLD members would no
longer 
continue to receive their salaries.

3. In AMOT Report EE-1438, 4 June 1964, AMOT-84 further
reported information he had received from Iden A, as follows:
a. Iden B said that AMBIDDY-1 was only concerned
with maintaining the small ANWORLD camp in Nicaragua, where
there were weapons, ammunition, and seven men, who were there
without the knowledge of the ODYOKERS. Iden B said that
AMBIDDY-1 was awaiting an opportune moment to arm as many
friends as possible and leave for PBRUMEN.
b. Iden C said that there really were arms and
ammunition cached in the camp in Nicaragua, but that the seven
men there spent all their time looking for persons to buy
the arms and ammunition.
c. Iden C also said he believed that if AMBIDDY-1 was
keeping up his radio transmissions and payments to some
journalists it was because they served as a cover for his
commercial operations and that all the propaganda would
disappear when AMBIDDY-1 had to use AMWORLD money to keep up
the propaganda.

Res Manuel Artine
June 9
Chuchon Briks
In general, Artine impressed me greatly and we got along very well. He is
energetic, idealistic, enthusiastic, highly motivated and in my judgement
wil suited in every way to the task he intends to fua perform. As you
know, he is 33 years old, tough-minded and filled with ideological fire.
His weakness would appear to be a certain lack of um focus and conceptualization,
He does not really have a plan but appears to be reacting to immediate crises
and opportunities like a fire fighter. He and his group, therefore, need careful
and thoughtful leadership and guidance to get the most out of them and to
deal with problems in the proper order of priority and urgency.
.:
He arrived late at the Business School because the taxi driver got lost.
We had a quick lunch together atvijaint which I had to leave early in order
to be in class at 1:30. At my request he joined me in the classroom. I was
giving a lecture on the role of the manager in the midst of radical change to a
group of alumni who are at the School for a short seminar on international business
problems. During the discussion period he spoke well and with great conviction.
about his work in the hills with Castro and the Cuban problem in general.xx He made
an excellent impression.
We ther talked in my office for 1½ hours. A summary of the conversation followss
He told me of his work with the Indians on the Atlantic Coast of Nicaragua
where he has 5 men working on community development problems including health,
education, road building, rice marketing and sick boat building. He has 10 men
at his base of operations on the coast. He mentioned that he knew Enrique Pereira,
a young manașor år. Managua closely associated with INCAE and in my judgement a
good, active, properly oriented young man.

He discussed his civic action training program in Miami which has
just started and in which he said he has 32 men enrolled. This is a 3-
month program to prepare men for rural organization work of various kinds.
He spoke of his need for help in with respective to cooperative training and
especially cooperatáte leadership selection and preparation.
He spoke of his conversation with the Col. Peralta in Guatemala and said
that after a four-day field trip he reported to the President thats
8. The Army was old fashioned, had poor ideas and as ill equipped
to fight guerilla warfare or to carry out the civic action program which were
urgently necessary.
b. He said he found serious subversion among the Indians largely
through small radios which Cuban trained Guatemalans were giving to the Indians
and which were tuned in on Radio Cuba only. He knew specifically of 5
Guatemalans engaged in this work..
✓ c. He spoke of the danger of Sosa in the mountains and said that
Peralta showed his ignorance by brushing Bosa off as a small-time operator with
only a handful of men around him. Artine said he had about 25 men with him and
added that this was enough to start a lot of trouble. He said he would like to
begin something in Quatemala but had no specific suggestions.
.
He said he had 3 people working in San Jose, Costa Rica, inside what he
referred to as "the Cuban community."
He has one man in Colombia organising three cooperatives in the Call area
at the request of a local Senator who owns a sugar mill and the Call newspaper
and who Artime described as a very good HEER man. He is deeply concerned abont
the pump situation in Colombia,
He is leaving shortly for Bolivia where he has been invited to spend
four days by the President.
During the course of the conversation I made the following suggestions
which met with his enthusiastic approvals
14-00000
L
Artine ... 3
I believe his key contribution may be in the area of rural organization and
motivation. He and his men (he said he has 220 available for immediate action)
need rural organisation training. Only a few know much about it. I suggested
therefore he investigate the cooperative training school at Antigonish,
Nova Scotia, which from everything I have been able to find out in Panama and
elsewhere is the best thing of its kind in the would. He said he had heared of
it very favorably and mentioned he would talk with a Bishop friend of his and
see if he could get some of his men enrolled in the school immediately.
I told him in some detail of our work in Veraguas Province and of Bishop
McGrath's general development plans and also of the Bishop's intention to
establish a cooperative training center in Veraguas. I mentioned the possibility
of one or two of his men working in Veraguas alongside my men who will be there
this summer and thereafter. He was extremely enthusiastic about this and suggested
Mestor Izquierdo, a 29-year-old Cuban Negro whom he said had done rural organization
work with him in Cuba. He spoke very highly of him. My thought was that perhaps
Izquierdo might join my men during the summer with Bishop McGrath's approval,
work on our corperative project there and perhaps remain to help the Bishop
'set up his training center and carry on such other activities as might be useful.
Isquierdo is apparently very versatile in his talents. He might go to Antigonish.
somewhere along the way if that esemed wise. We left it that I would see how
the Veraguas project goes, would talk informally to the Bishop and would meet
Artime and possibly Taquierdo in San Salvador on August 5. At that time we would
decide whether it would be wise for Artime and/or Izquierdo to come with me to
Veraguas.
--
He asked me to send him some books about chicken raising in Central
Americas. Could you take care of thist
-
He gave me his address as 1270 NE 85th Street, Miami, and telephone as.
754-8144
All in all, I was deeply impressed by Artime and would like to work with.

Meetings with AMJAVA-4 in Washington, 27-28 June 1965
Subject:
Proposed Agency Programs
1. Following the demise of AMWORLD, AMJAVA-4 has become
familiar with three other Agency programs, or proposed programs,
and 
he asked if he could have some clarification as to just
what we wanted from him and his people. I explained that there vere
three 
different functions which needed to be done and that the
Agency was trying to develop programs to meet each need. The
three functions concerning Cuba are:
(a) to maintain the MRR as a respected resistance.
organization with a political posture which is acceptable to most
Cubans and not inimical to U.S. interests. We are asking approval of
a minimum budget for subsidy of the MRR which will pay for its
published and radio publicity matter, subsistence to survivors of
MRR killed, disabled, or captured, and travel expenses for AMBIDDY-1
as the leader of the movement outside Cuba. We are trying to
guide A-l into a program of Community Development/Civic Action
projects in Latin America as a means of projecting an image of the
MRR and of A-1 as constructive, forward-looking people instead of
simply exile counterrevolutionaries. We would hope that such
activities would keep the movement together, give the members
practical experience which would eventually be useful in Cuba, and
in the meantime, would render useful results in countering
problems of insurgency in Latin America.
(b) to prepare a managerial and executive team of
specially selected Cuban exiles who would be ready to move into Cuba:
should relations be resumed with the United States in order to ".
furnish effective direction of necessary governmental functions and
assist the United States in denying the island to Communist
control. Selected candidates would, hopefully, be fairly young
as well as intelligent and capable of profiting from extensive
training programs which would be designed for each to prepare him
to perform a specific function in a future Cuban regime. The
program would be apolitical, each person being considered as an
individual and not as representative of any organization. This
is the program for which A-4 is being considered for training in
the field of internal security for work with the Agency in a post-
Castro Cuban régime,

situations anywhere in the world on short notice and for short
periods of time. When not mobilized, the Agency would
then inmaintaining employment and supporting themselves,
would also, of course, be available for emergency operationnal
commitment to Cuba if required. (It was explained that this was
the program handled by Mr. Tom Clines of SOD, who was present and
discussed it more in detail with A-4.)
2. A-4 understood that the programs outlined above wate
only parts of an overall concept concering Cuba, that the first was
designed to meet long-term political considerations, the second
at meet long-term strategic requirements, and the third to meet
current operational needs. He understood and completely agreed
with each program, and agreed to cooperate in executing each of
them, to the maximum of his ability. He will be happy to spot and
recruit for us in each program, and will try to influence AMBIDDY-1
along the lines we want him to follow. A-4 appreciated our
explanations and stated that he could be much more helpful to us
now that he understood what we were trying to accomplish.

class is now studying organization of rural cooperatives.
Silvano POZO is chief instructor for this phase and will
be sent to Panama as soon as the classes in Miami are
completed.
d. A-1 has bought a small farm (22 acres) near West
Palm Beach to develop as a model farm for his training
program. He is installing generators, water pumps, and
starting to raise chickens, etc. He hopes eventually to
bring a few students at a time from Latin America as his
program progresses to show them what can be done with
small plots if proper farming techniques are used.
A-1 received another message from Bolivia saying
in effect that the situation was still about the same and
again asking if he were able to visit there. He stalled
them again (at our request) and agreed to be out of town
or otherwise scheduled until the matter dies a natural
death.
2. The West German Government has issued scholarships
paying all tuition plus $100 per month subsistence in German
universities to three of A-l's people who have been living in
Spain. They will go to Germany in August to study the language
for six months then begin their studies. They are Angel LAVANDERA
economics; Carlos MAYO, engineering; and Luis CAVADA, engineering.
This is follow-up to the meeting A-1 had in Rome with the German
Ambassador that was arranged for him by the Vatican Secretary ɗf
State last December.
3. A-1 is leaving 13 or 14 July for about 10 to 15 days
visiting Central America. He will go to Nicaragua first to talk
with President Schick and General Somoza, then to Monkey Point
to check on the condition of the base, security of the arms he
has cached there, and to observe the civic action training his
men there are conducting for the local Indians. He will then
go to Costa Rica to talk with President Orlich and Foreign
Minister Oduber who have sent word they would like to meet with
him as soon as convenient for him. From there he will go to
Panama to see President Marcos Robles, who has been expecting
him for several weeks. A-1 will describe the project he is
about to enter with Bishop McGrath and Professor Lodge and
confirm President Robles' attitude toward it. A-1 will also
visit Veraguas Province and look over the training center.

This industrial development plan is presented by the ISVIK:HYCA

This report is part of the preliminary study which I 154

centration of repair yards and shipyards in the Bluff-Bluefields area,
These facilities will provide complete service to the fishing fleets and
ether boats which operate on the Atlantic coast of Ficaragua. The initial
cest of building these facilities, with their necessary complex opera-

other advantage of construction from wood is a plan for production

OGIO-ECONOMIC JUSTIFICATION
· Employment& In the first year of production, 16 men will be empley-
by the Enterprise, and assigned as follows:
Administration Personnel: 4 employees (one administrator and public account-
ant), one office assistant, and two mamgers of services and maintenance).
Carpentry : 7 employees (one chief of carpentry, three ship-carpen-
ters, two carpenter assistants).
Mechanics AIR: 5 empleynes (one chief of mechanics and lathe-shop, twe
specialist muolinios, and two mechanics assistants).
The initial wages of all employees of the Enterprise will be based
on their technical knowledge, years of experience, etc. This pay scale will
surpass the normal in order to attract the best possible personnel to the En-
terprise, & plan for increase of fixed and meritorious unges is also being
planned as an incentive for the employees,
The number of personnel is expected to increase to 20 in the second

Qut the Balance of Payments: The shrispboat fleets in Ficaragua have
expanded t-s
10 to 15 boats annually., These boats are bought eatively
From Mexico and the United States. Their total value within a pow
riod of three years extfinds from a minimum of US$ 900,000 to a maximum of
US$ 2,025,000. Our production during this period will be 14 shrimpbeate at
a value of US$ 560, 000 which will remain in the country.
Consumer Benefits and Economic Development: At present, most of the shring
beats in the area have no facilities for mechanical repairs, and, in most
be ac
the shallow draft
cases, no facilities for
ng. This is due in part to the inmi
the marine railways
ind in the local repair yards, as well as to antiquated equip
ment. Because of these difficulties, many shrimpboats are forced to put into
Honduras, Mexice and at times the United States for repairs,
It is difficult to estimate with certainty the total loss-
through
es which these boats incur arg negotiations for entry to and de-
parture from other countries, fuel and personnel expenses, and, of more in-
portance, the incalculable losses in fishing time. Inasmuchas our repair
yards will possess a greater capability than normally required, those boats
with emergency and other types of damages will guaranteed service. In this
way we will attract to our repair yards these boats which ordinarily would
seek repairs outside of the country with the sequent loss in £xxsign pro-
fits and valuable time fishing time in the waters of Nicaragua.

required for the boats are necessarily complex, though the processes
are immenselv simplified by new methods, Below in a description of the pre

.
The shall plating is next attached from the keel upwards in a such a ma-
ner that upon entering the water the wood undergoes a precalculated expan-
sion which completely seale the mill without necessitating colking. A hole
is drilled for the shaft and the supports and pia for the rider are then
set in place. Following this is the flooring for the deck and zxer=x the
ateel
crev's mbla, and/reinforcemnts for the prow, stern and machine room. *fter
all of this, completed, the secondary installations are carried out, such as
the painting, electrical wiring, plumbing, mets, gavits, winches, and finally
the launching of the boat. Final touch-up is effected the boat is in
the water.

The normal process of drydock-repair service for a boat is as
follows: The cradle(Sec diagrams Ers 1 and 3) awaits the boat at the en-
trance of the ramp. With the use of mane-avering-busys, the boat is lifted
ente the cradle where it is made stationary transverse beams. The moving
cradle is brought up the ramp and the boat is then transferred from it to
a lateral crails. The beat is brought to Section Nr 1 where it is immediate-

. At present, however, the sandbar of Bluff limits access to the
port to boats in with 13 feet of draught or less ( a maximum of 800 tons).
This greatly limits the commercial traffic to Bluefields. Possibly in
the near future, the sandbar may be dredged, and we would then be suf-

fields would then have the opportunity of becoming a prime marunti

un concentrado de estilleres verders in i bres del Bluff - Bluefileds.
Dichas facilidades estarán orientadas a dar servicios completes a las
flotas peaqueras y domis embarcaciones que operan en la Costa Atlantica
de Nicaragua. Dada is complejidad de las operacioncs requeridas en los
trabajos y servicios du un astillero, el costo del monto de dichas foci-
lidades es inicialmento elevado. G. acins a los equipos, experiencia y
personal técnico que poseu la INVERNICA, ésta costo inicial se reduce
atu. Este estudio analiza los diferentes elementos que forman
parte de dicus inversión y los integra a una cifra total, cuyo valor es de
US$ 237,000.00 (DOSCIENTOS TREINTA Y SIETE MIL DOLARES), con dos inversion

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT:
Meeting with George Lodge, Harvard School
of Business
1. On 15 July 1965, with Mr. Andy Croce of CA Staff,
I met Mr. Lodge at the Key Bridge Marriott Hotel to discuss
what he knew 
about the relations among AMBIDDY-1, Bishop
McGrath 
of Panama, and a rural development program they are...
all working 
on in Panama. Mr. Lodge described Bishop McGrath
as 
a 
real ball of fire, about 39 or 40 years old, born of
U. 
S. parents in the Canal Zone but he has taken Panama
citzenship. He graduated from Notre Dame University, did
graduate work in Rome and has taught in several European
and Latin American universities, such as in Chile. He is
one of the three top Catholic prelates in Latin America
and has extremely close ties with the Vatican, e.g., he is
on the Ecumenical 
Council and on the birth control group.
has an official operating budget of $2,000 per year which he
augments from every conceivable source, particularly from the
German bishops. He is politically and operationally minded,
Ian American completely in his attitude and behavior, a
typical Irish politician, Mr. Lodge submitted somewhat
wryly. His parents are retired and live in Miami where he
visits often. He recently met AMBIDDY-1 there on two occasions.
On this same visit he also met the Papal Nuncio from Santo
Domingo (he appears to receive most of the hot potato type
assignments in his part of the world).
He
2. Veraguas Province of Panama is a selected testing
ground for community development programs in rural areas.
It is the poorest and most hopeless province of Panama, a
small armed uprising took place there in 1958 and was put
dorn. The Communists have their best organization in Panama
In this province. The program there is based on the village
of San Francisco, about 10 miles off the highway, and is an
expansion of the efforts of the parish priest Father VASQUEZ”

Pinto who has been thereabout 10 years. He is a dynamic
young man who has lead the villagers to rebuild their village
and church to develop their land and organize a cooperative
and small credit facilities. The village is only 1,200
people but they raised by themselves $1,000 to buy materials
and then built a training center capable of housing, feeding
and training 60 men at a time in rural cooperatives and rural
development. One of their ideas is to select bright looking
leaders and potential leaders from rural areas, first in
Panama and later, hopefully, from other nearby countries
for visits of a few days in which they hope to brain-wash
them of Communist type propaganda they may have heard and
show them what can actually be done so they can take the
good word with them to their own communities. This is in
addition to the regular formal course of 4 months for
selected young potential leaders from rural communities in
Panama and all over Latin America.
3. Another leading light in the program is Father
Steele who was thrown out of Dominica by Trujillo for
organizing cooperatives and is a recognized authority on
the subject. Father Steele uses Veraguas as a home base
but travels to Chile, Colombia and other countries conducting
short training courses on the ground. There are some Dutch
priests on the staff whom Bishop McGrath personally recruited.
Father Vasquez Pinto has sent about 10 to 15 local boys to
the Antigonish School in Nova Scotia and they are back for
duty. Mr. Lodge describes the group as a highly motivated
and energetic group and Father Vasquez Pinto as a young and
effective Panamanian priest who is a good operator. Mr. Lodge
has two men from Harvard University there to study the
program and assist in any way they can. The Peace Corps has
54 people in the Central Provinces of Panama, about 30 of
them in Veraguas Province. They cooperate with the center,
in fact the two Harvard men are interviewing each of the
Peace Corps volunteers about their work. Mr. Lodge said they
are coming up with some good information and ideas which other-
wise would be lost as there is a good deal of experience
among the Peace Corps kids but they don't know to recognize
its significance or how to organize it into useable form.
4. The above group is trying to organize the center as a
viable base with an effective staff to continue the training
program even if the present leaders should move on. They
hope it will become a pilot program for Latin America and
that they will be able to seed other similar programm from

this one. They hope to be able to spot and develop leaders
in remote areas for future 
operations in those areas.
Incidental to these major 
objectives, they are also 
helping
to develop the economy of 
Veraguas, to develop production,
transport to markets, 
credit facilities, and in general to
help alleviate grievances 
which the Communists have exploited
in the past.
5. Bishop McGrath has arranged with ANBIDDY-1 for about
six of AMBIDDY-1's people to 
attend the January 1966 training

remain on the staff.

that Nestor IZQUIERDO (who is well 
known as a long-time
adherent of AMBIDDY-1 
from 1958-59 Comandos Rurales days
in Oriente) would not 
be assigned to the Panama center 
at
this time. AMBIDDY-1 
told Bishop McGrath that he would 
try
to obtain sufficient funds 
to support the men assigned to

center. He has not yet

1. On 29 July 1965 I discussed Subject with Major Lupton
of Detachment "A" of ACSI Headquarters. In response to my
direct questions Major Lupton stated the following:
་
ACSI is not using subject but they have been
asidering such use.
b. Subject is not working in Bolivia or anywhere va
Helse for ACSI or any other Defense Department component that
Major Lupton is aware of.
1. ACSI was unaware that subject had been designating
himself as a sort of public relations representative and preas
in behalf of General BARRIENTOS.
3. I stated to Major Lupton that we held a poor opinion
of subject, regarded his as an opportunist, and a premible
candidate for "buza" action. Furthermore we were concerned
about his alleged press activities in behalf of BARRIENTOS-
and felt if he wore in anyway connected with a United States
Intelligence agency and this became known, it could have an
adverse affect on the extremely delicate political situation
which now exists in that country and very well place the U.S.
Government in an embarrassing position with respect to the
Bolivian Government. Based on our views regarding subject I
told Eajor upton that we would not coordinate any operational
proposal ACSI might put forward aimed at using subject's
services.
3. Major Lupton took the above in good grace and asked
if it were possible for us to provide him with any information
concerning subject's background and other details which

1. In late July 1965 members of the AMLILAC Group re-

with various members of AMYUM located in the JMWAVE area..

told AMLILAC

that A-8 was the caretaker at one of the Bases in Central
America along with 9 other men. He stated that they had all
the weapons from the last effort and were preparing the camp
for re-activation. AMBIDDY-1 told A-8 that $500,000, 
was
available for the reactivation.
The penchant of PBRUMEN exiles for exaggeration,
embellishments, and contortion of information (as can be
seen from para 1 B, and C) continues to plague the remnants
of AMWORLD and as a consequence gives rise to jealous 
fears
on the part of the AHLILAC Group particularly 
as to the 
real
state of AMWORLD. Such reports as those above

collected by the AMLYLACS tend to affect the latters' morale
and confidence in KUBARK because the AMLILACS believe that
anything AMBIDDY-1 does is done with KUBARK support and blessing.
As Headquarters is aware the great fear of the AMLILACS is that
AMBIDDY-1 will get all the action and all the glory. However,
in view of the current KUBARK/AMBIDIT-1 relationship the
AMLILACS have little to fear and a renewed morale crisis is not
expected to arise. On the other hand, if AMBIDDY-1 were to
re-activate part of his action force and conduct a raid utilizing
non-KUBARK support, that would be another matter. It would then
be very difficult to convince the AMLILACS that KUBARK was not
involved and their morale and confidence would be badly shaken.
This situation is brought to your attention simply to show what
effect such AMBIDDY-1 activities would have on this Station's
painstaking efforts to retain a superior and experienced commando
capability under already difficult psychological conditions.

On 21 July 1965, AMOT-237 furnished the following in AMOT.
ED-1531, which information he had received from ESIRE-1:
Juan Jowe PERUYERO Rodrigues (201-294249), President
of the Bay of Pige Veterans Association, Alberto MARTINEZ
Echonique (201-290790) and Ruben GONZALEZ de la Heria, are
making overtures to buy arms from ANBIDDY-1. The
Association's Directorate, and the membership-at-large, have.
not yet been told officially of this contemplated deal.
ESIRE-1 felt this information was partially confirmed
following comment made to him by Luis Humberto VIDANA
sch (201-274685) in a conversation: "What do you think
that ALBIDDY-1 has been reduced to doing? He now wants to

ESIRE-1 thinks it possible that the BABUN brothers a
be the persoas financing PERUYERO in the purchase of the
AMWORLD arms.
ESIRE-1 commented that PERUYERO would not
dare tell him about buying any AMWORLD arms as he knows that
ESIRE-1 would be opposed to such negotiations on the grounds
that this would be immoral.
8. Previous reporting AMWORLD/AMBIDDY-1 activities has
indicated, as in Reference A, that ANBIDDY-1 was interested in

between Alfredo BORGES Caignet (201-347593), now Immigration
Secretary for ANWORLD, and Jose Luis SOSA Sancio (201-746587).
BORGES told SOSA: "Be ready to go back to the place where you
were fore, because you will have to leave for there in the
first four or five days of August. AMWORLD will function in
the same manner as previously, but with more independence."
BORGES also commented to SOSA that AMBIDDY-1 is the current.

He plans to use it to print the ANYUM magazine, plus hopefully
making some profit for AMYUM from it on commercial printing jobs.
2. ANJAVA-4 and AMBIDOY-1 both laughed heartily at the idea
that the PC of BABUN could be converted to a mothership. This
was considered and rejected several months ago when AMWORLD was

made to seize 
them. AMBILLY-1 said hehad either plans nor money
to 
reactivate any bases, except as they might be used for la:il
civic 
action type programs.
4. AMBIDDY-1 was advised by his case officer in strongest
terms to sell or throw away everything from the Central American
camps, 
to concentrate on trying to project a new image of himself
as a 
constructive and progressive leader involved in community
development and civic action type programs in Latin America by
invitation 
of the local governments, and to stop talking or acting
as a paramilitary 
operator. He was advised in ever stronger terms
to get out 
of the DAVE area as soon as possible to remove himself
as 
a 
target of constant personal attacks against which he could
not defend 
himself. He agreed in principle, subject to waiting
three months 
for his wife to deliver their first child.
5. WAVE may assure the AMLILAC leader that, to the best
knowledge of KUBARK, the AMWORLD program is dead, that AMBIDDY-1
has no real 
intention and only limited capability of mounting.
raids, 
and that anything he might do along the lines of paramilitary
action would 
certainly be without ODYOKK support or blessing given
the present 
political climate in HQS area.
6. FYI, HQ8 continues to try to influence AMBIDDY-1 to stay
out of paramilitary matters entirely. To this end, we shall try"
to keep his 
top operational personnel otherwise occupied in XUBARK
or other employment, to keep him as fully and usefully occupied as
possible away from the WAVE and PBRUMEN area, and to convince him
to sell or lease his two Swift boats to commercial enterprises
or to another KUBARK program outside the WAVE area.

7. HQ will welcome continued reporting on AMBIDDY–1's

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT:

23 August 1965
AMBIDDY/1 discussions with General Anastasio
SOMOZA, President SCHICK and other Nicaraguan
officials, 24 Jul-20 Aug 1965.
1. A/1 first met with General SOMOZA 27/28 July.
The following points were made in these discussions:
a. General SOMOZA said the State Department is
making an investigation of how much money he is using to control
the government and win the next presidential elections. SOMOZA
told A/1 that he intended to run and fully expected to win the
election, but would not need to buy any votes. He asked A/1 to
please tell "Washington" that State is very clumsy and if they
really want to know anything they should call on the Agency, or
the FBI, either of which is much more effective. SOMOZA said
everybody in Managua knows about State's efforts to block his
"candidacy and are laughing at them.
b. SOMOZA said he was meeting Daniel ODUBER of
Costa Rica at the border shortly, and they would make a "non-
aggression pact" agreeing that neither will make trouble for
the other's campaign for election to Presidency. ODUBER had
asked for the interview. SOMOZA told A/1 that he thought
ODUBER had made a "live and let live" agreement with the Com-
munists, and that at their meeting, he would demand from ODUBER
a public denunciation of the Communists to be followed by
effective control measures. against them.
0. The MRR will be allowed to build and operate
mall boatyard for construction, maintenance and repair of
shrimp boats at Bluefields without SOMOZA or the Nicaraguan
Government to be cut into the proceeds. This is part of A/l's
community development program, aimed at developing a large
fishing cooperative based on Bluefields which will be self-
sustaining and profitable for the members and the local economy.
SOMOZA also approved continuation of the basic education
program being conducted by Al's five man contingent at the old
Monkey Point base and eventual development of that area as a rice-
growing cooperative for the benefit of the local Indians.
SECRET
14-00000
L
d. General SOMOZA, at A/l's strong recommendation,
agreed to start pushing Civic Action programs through the National
Guard 
in an effort to enhance his personal image preparatory to
the next Presidential campaign. SOMOZA asked A/1 to assist and
advise 
in this effort.
2. The next meeting with General SOMOZA by A/1 was
on 4 August, with following points:
a. SOMOZA said that the latest program of Fidel
CASTRO is targetted against Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama.
Part of the plan includes assassination of the presidents of
the three countries as part of a terror campaign to soften
them up.
He said that in Panama, particularly, President
Marcos ROBLES is a prime target but the Communists are exploiting
a recent turn against him by the National Guard because he has
cut down on their costs, pensions, and other privileges. If
ROBLES is eliminated from power, the Communists feel the chief
of the National Guard will take over and they thinking they a
can handle him more easily than they can ROBLES.
b. Source for above, according to SOMOZA, was a
close associate of Marcial AGUILUZ, whom he described as the top
Communist in Costa Rica and one who had recruited (fnu) FONSECA,
a Nicaraguan now living in Mexico. FONSECA is a bastard son of
one of SOMOZA's foremen, a Communist, and an agent working
directly under order of Fidel CASTRO.
0.
A/1 and SOMOZA talked again about a Civic
Action program in Nicaragua and SOMOZA said again that he would
support it. He will assign Father LUGO, a Cuban priest who
served with the Bay of Pigs forces, to a position similar to a
chaplain in the National Guard in order to assist in the program.
SOMOZA will support MRR community development programs with
whatever authorizations are required and with whatever official
or personal prestige he may offer.
3.. A/1 next returned to Managua on 17 August and met
with Major PEREZ of the Nicaraguan Customs Service, a personal aide
to the General. PEREZ said SOMOZA was very angry (not at A/1 or
his people) and difficult to see. He said 3 Colonels were under
Arrest for 3 days each for disobeying orders. PEREZ was afraid
to see SOMOZA for fear he might be arrested also. However, A/1
called SOMOZA by phone and was invited to visit him next day
at Tipitapa. A/1 met him the next day (18 Aug) and had lunch
with BOMOZA and (fnu) BENITEZ, a Puerto Rican, former politician
there who in now in business but remains in contact with and
working for the U. 8. Government. After lunch, BENITEZ left

and A/1 went with SONOZA in his car.
SOMOZA told A/1 why he was 60 angry. .
While they were riding,
d. A message had recently come to General
SONOZA from the Nicaraguan Ambassador in Panama saying that he
had it from authoritative sources that the U. S. not only
would not support his candidacy for the Presidency, but would
strongly oppose it. In addition, SONOZA had word that Sydney
ROSS, Director of El Tiempo (Spanish language newspaper in
New York), after a recent Interview with Asst. Secretary Jack
Vaughn of the State Department, had an off-the-record talk
VAUGHN had said that, so far
with VAUGHN after the interview.
as he was concerned, SOMOZA was no different from the other
Latin American dictators such as TRUJILLO, PERON, DUVALIER,
STROESSNER, Col. LOPEZ, or Gen. CASTELL Branco, and that he
could certainly not support installing another military dictator
in Nicaragua. The two reports were confirmatory in SOMOZA's
mind and made him feel extremely bad as he said he has always
talked favorably about the U.S. and tried to cooperate with them
at every chance.
e. SOMOZA checked with the U.S. Ambassador in
Nicaragua (whether in person or by sending Pres. SCHICK was
not made clear) about the matter, and received a typical State
Department reply that the U.S. was neutral in Nicaraguan internal
affairs and would take no action about the elections
.
Ambassador said he could not believe VAUGHN could have made
such statements because of the U.S. position of neutrality in
Nicaraguan afføirs.
The
f. SOMOZA also said he had sent a message to
Washington suggesting that if some of the other countries heard
about themselves being lumped with TRUJILLO, PERON, etc. 
they
might well call back their troops from Santo Domingo and tell
Washington to go to hell.
8. He said he was going ahend with his plans
regardless of what the U.S. does about it and reminded A/1 of
Mr. J. C. KING's talk with him (SOMOZA) at the airport 
in
Washington to let him know after the mistin attack on the
BIERRA ARANZAZU that Washington would understand if

this as an example of an attempt from Washington to dictate
to him which he had ignored, telling A/1 that he was a friend,
would continue to be, and would continue 
to make his own
decisions regardless of what Washington might want from him.
A/1 made another strong suggestion that SOMOZA take 
off his

addition, he again advised him to go personally to Washington

14-00000
to talk directly with VAUGHN and other U. S. officials to get
the picture cleared up. A/1 
said, "Let's try to get along
with the Norteamericans, it's 
better to have them with us
than against us." 
SOMOZA agreed, but said he had sent his
brother, Luis SOMOZA, ahead.
h. The following day, 19 Aug, General SOMOZA
called A/1 and 
said Luis had 
called him, reporting he had a
talked to Vaughn in Miami. 
Said Vaughn had denied talking to
Sydney ROSS or of passing such 
information to the Ambassador
in Panama. Luis said he 
dropped the subject at that point and
talked about other things. (A/1 
believes Luis could be
fabricating as usual or 
could have botched up the interview if
it did take place.) A/1 
again strongly recommended that General
SOMOZA make his own visit to 
Washington and talk to Vaughn and
others in person.
On 19 August, A/1 interviewed President SCHICK

He previously lived in Maragus and worked for Colonel
Miguel RUIZ Herrera (a Costa Rican sometimes employed by
General Anastasio SOMOEA) as a specialist in guerrilla
warfare.
2. About late May or early June, ESPINAL vas
drinking in a Managua bar and angaged one of A/l's dele-
gation in conversation, not knowing who he was. He claimed
to have been in Guatemala recently where he had worked with
some "good people of the lower classes" in an attempt to
overthrow the Guatemalan government. He quoted at length,
and accurately, from Che GUEVARA and used examples, also
accurately, for some Fidel CASTRO operations on how to
overthrow a government. A/1's man played the part of
leftist sympathizer to elicit from subject. Through
Nicaraguan security service, the HER people found out
that Col. RUIZ H. claimed subject had come to him and
presented himself as a GW expert saying he was willing to
work for him in an attempt to make a coup against the govern-
ment in Costa Rica. In early July, subject told Col. RUIZ H.
that the Costa Rican operation was taking too long and nothing
auch was going on, so he was going to Panana from where he
could be called back immediately when they were ready to go ia
Costa Rica. Subject had also been overheard to say in Mamagun
that he had a special mission to assassinate a Central American
president.

FROM 8 ANBIDDY/1
SUBJECT:
AMBIDDY/1 discussion with President ORLICH,
Foreign Minister ODUVER and other Costa Rican
officials, lato July to mid-August 1965.
1. In late July, A/1 went to Costa Rica and mứt with
President ORLICH, telling him the MRR was out of business so far
as operations directly against Cuba are concerned, and no longer
needs bases, mone;, or other support for such paramilitary
activities. A/1 described the latest MRR program to combat
CASTROFCOMmunist efforts in Latin America by engaging in.
community development and counter-insurgency activities. He
asked only for help in projecting a progressive and constructive
image and some basic prestige for the MRR and for himself. To
that end, he reminded President ORLICH that both of them know
full well that in the whiskey smuggling scandals and coup
attempts for which A/1 had taken the rap, not only was he not
guilty, but had been, in fact, the first one to give the warning
in both cases. In return for those past favors, he now wants
Pres. ORLICH to put him together with Daniel ODUBER (the PLN
candidate for president who will almost certainly be elected)
in order to counteract the bad-mouth put on 4/1 to ODUBER by
Manolo RAY, Colonel FIGULS, and Teodore "Yo-yo" QUIROZ. A/1
proposed to meet ODUBER parmonally, and let him make up his
ova mind. Pres. ORLICH called ODUBER's office, but he was off
politick on the coast. ORLICH then sent A/I with Colonel
LIPPA (a good friend of A/1) to talk with ODUBER's secretary,
who also is a good friend of Col. LIPPA. The secretary (actually
a male excistant) said everybody talks about A/1 but nobody really
knows him or very much about him. Gome good liberal revolutiona-
ries say he is a good man, othem say he is a S. O. B. A/L
replied that was the reason he had then the trouble to come to
see ODUBER, that he would make his position clear himself and
would be glad to confront any accusers if ODUBER so desired.
The secretary said they were conserned about the campaign
because the oppostion was uniting and was getting plenty of
money from big businessman. A/1 offered to help by printing
posters, Leaflets, and other campaign material if they needed
it, free of charge at his "Quality Off-set Printing Shop". in

Roberto MADRIZ, who may run for Deputy if he can be
convinced to ignore his shyness and reluctance to make
political seches.
2. On 8 and 9 August, A/1 was again in Costa Rica
and met with ODUBER, this meeting was arranged by Roberto
MADRIX. ODURKR admitted that he knew the Cubans were not
guilty of the smuggling charges that had been levied against
them.
He also appreciated A/l's previous refusals to assist
coup plotters and his help in squelching their efforts. A/1
said he told ODUBER, "I know you have been told I am a 8. O. B.
and I want you to see for yourself what I am and make up your
mind. I know the people who have so described me and would
like to meet you together with them so you can make your own
gddgement." A/1 said these opening remarks brought on
ODUBER's replies about the smuggling and coup reports.
A/1 said he gave ODUBER a quick history of
what it has done, and what it stands for. He told
ODURER he realized they had not been close before, but hel
felt ODUBER and the FLN were the best choice for Costa Rica
and therefore the MRR was prepared to support him in any way
they can, including training, men and equipment. ODUBER
asked for a specialist to do some training of his personal
security group, and to furnish some walkie-talkie radios for
them if possible. A/1 assigned Luis ARRIEURIETA Sardinas
(201-298890), a member of the MRR delegation to Costa Rica,
who is well-known and trusted by ODUBER, to full-time duty
a security adviser and trainer. A/1 also offered to donate
one issue of Tridente, the MRR news magazine, to Costa Rica
with favorable emphasis on ODUBER, and send free copies to
Costa Rica. CDUBER also took A/1 up on his previous offer to
print posters, etc. A/1 told him that the MRR people had heard

SUBJECT: Vidal ESPINAL Herrero, possible CI suspect
1. Subject is a Spaniard who is believed to be
working now at the Ron Carta Vieja factory in Panama City.
He previously lived in Managua and worked for Colonel
Miguel RUIZ Herrera (a Costa Rican sometimes employed by
General Anastasio SOMOZA) as a specialist in guerrilla
warfare.
2. About late May or early June, ESPINAL was
drinking in a Managua bar and angaged one of A/l's dele-
gation in conversation, not knowing who he was. He claimed
to have been in Guatemala recently where he had worked with
some "good people of the lower classes" in an attempt to
overthrow the Guatemalan government. He quoted at length,
and accurately, from Che. GUEVARA and used examples, also
accurately, for some Fidel CASTRO operations on how to
overthrow a government. A/1's man played the part of a
leftist sympathizer to elicit from subject. Through the
Nicaraguan security service, the MRR people found out
that Col. RUIZ H. claimed subject had come to him and
presented himself as a GW expert saying he was willing to
work for him in an attempt to make a coup against the govern-
ment in Costa Rica. In early July, subject told Col. RUIZ H.
that the Costa Rican operation was taking too long and nothing
much was going on, so he was going to Panama from where he
could be called back immediately when they were ready to go in
Costa Rica. Subject had also been overheard to say in Managua
that he had a special mission to assassinate a Central American
president.

AMBIDDY/1 meeting with son of Colonel PERALTA of
Guatemala
1. On 24 July 1965, A/1 met with the son of Col.
PERALTA, at his request, at the Lido Palace Hotel in Nicaragua.
The meeting was arranged by General MONTIEL, chief of the
Nicaraguan security service.
2.Young PERALTA said that his father had no faith in
the Agency, and neither did ha. They still think the Agency
put Luis SIERRA to work with Roberto ALEJOS to overthrow
Col. PERALTA. They are not satisfied with their liaison with
the Agency or with the Embassy, and not at all clear on what
U.S. policy or wishes are in connection with Guatemala. Col.
PERALTA is willing to do whatever he is able to do, within
reason, to meet U.S. expectations, if he only knows what they
are,
but he is tired of hearing how bad things are without
concrete and constructive suggestions about how to improve
them.
3. A/1 tried to reassure him, telling him that he
(A/1) knew the Agency people in Guatemala very well (not true,
of course) and could guarantee it was not true that they had
supported ALEJOS or any other coup attempt. A/1 also asked
Gen. MONTIEL to try to soothe young PERALTÀ.
4. A/1 said young PERALTA was in Managua to attend
meeting concerning tourism in Central America.

1. I was called at home by the security officer and

returned A-l's call he mentioned that he would be leaving
for Costa Rica on 1 July. AMJAVA-4 would be remaining in
Miami for four or five days to get the new reorganization
under way. A-1 asked if we could intercede with INS in
facilitating 
the departure of four or five of his men who
wish to leave for the camps. A-1 was informed that we
would be unable to take any action until the names have
been submitted to us.
A-1 asked that we assist in obtaining a visa for.
Inocencio ALONSO Ramirez who will be sent to Mexico. Alonso
will replace Pineda in the job that he was originally
going to do. A-1 would prefer that Alonso have no contacts
with any other Cuban exile organization while in Mexico.
3. A-1 stated that some of the MRR secretariats would
need at least one or two weeks to wind up their affairs
ir Miami. A-1 was advised that we realize the dismantling
of MRR in Miami could not be done over night. ☐ wever, any
procrastination would be viewed as an act of bad faith.
4. I informed A-1 that the ADELAIDA is being insured
for $14,000 per annum. A letter of confirmation from the
Consejo would be sent shortly.

8. ANWORLD-AMBIDDY-1, Personality and
Handling Problems
1. Has AMBIDOY-1, who is the linchpin of AMWORLD,
sequitted himself well so far and by and large lived up
our expectations? The answer to this question is a quali-
fied "yes."
8. Not having been selected by CIA as the man most
likely to rally the best elements of the Cuban exile
community round his cause, AMBIDDY-1's disappointing showing
as a political figure should come as no shock to anyone.j
AMBIDDY-1 rever claimed that remnants of his novo-
ida Cuba were active or could be directed from abroad.
AMBIEDY-1's ability to enlist and organize
good activists has been successfully put to the test. Given
the extent of American help (and our methodical harassment
of competing action groupm), to have accomplished less would
have been difficult to excuse.
8.
AMBIESY–1's personality was formed in the crucible
student conspiracy against Entista, American exile, the
Day of Pigs fiasco, two years imprisonment under sentence of
death and, since July 1963, headship of an unconventional
warfare mechanim supported by the United States. He is a
mna of many engaging traits: Sincerity of demeanor, seeming
ability to place events in a broader context of history,
ready wit and self-depreciation, engatay based on shrewd
evaluation of his interlocutors, to mention a few. Bubjected

to stress or suffering misfortune, some of the obverse traits
begin to show: Uncontrollable outbursts of fury, inpulsive
reactions, peevish vindictiveness and self-pity (none of
which have been observed by us firsthand).
Imbued with a somewhat shallow philosophy, AMBIDOT-1.
is prone to tailor ideas to what he strives to accomplish at
given moment and to the impression he desires to leave with
opposites. Since he rightly views his relationship with
the Americans as crucial toward the achievement of main goal,
vis., to overthrow and succeed Castro, his pronounciamentos

lines of American thought.
9.
AMBIDOY-1's personality feeds on adulation and sur-
face manifestations of loyalty, despite the fact that he
claims to view loyalty to his person as ephemeral and as
under continuing threat of subversion, especially by his
American allies. To the extent possible, we have attempted
assuage his preoccupations on that score.
In the final analysis, AMBIDOY-1 trusts only himself
and views oven his closest associates as mere pawns whose
relative value fluctuates as the chess game progresses.
9. Endowed with an inquisitive and retentive mind,
AMBIDDY-1 has a remarkable knowledge of facts which in any
discussion be ably marshals and articulates.
་
10. AMBIDDY-1's views of things American is conditioned

Hence, any advice is selectively accepted or (usually
tacitly) rejected, depending on whether it serves to strengthen
that position. There is, of course, nothing reprehensible
about this.
11. AMBIDDY-1 relates to his savironment in essentirkly
conspiratorial terms. His world is peopled with demons akā
saints, the latter frequently epitomized by CIA, the forner
by the Department of State. All A❤mrican moves toward him
self and his organization are interpreted by him in those
terms.
13. AMBIDDY-1 probably fancies himself as an adopt
student of human behavior. Applying as a gauge his choion
of intimates and bedmates, be appears to be capable of
committing appalling blunders in his judgements of human
nature.

caught up in female entanglements. While we did not under-
rate the power of sex, we probably overrated AHEIDDY-l's
character and motivation.
14. In a project which may have vast consequence as
regards the security of the United States (transcending by
far its intrinsic value as an unconventional warfare
instrument) wo, of course, have to take into consideration
the possibility that AMBIDDY-1 could be working for the
other side-either now or later. We view this possibility
as most unlikely, yet feel somewhat remiss in not having
paid much attention to what transpired between the landing.
at Playa Giron and the Rose Bowl ceremony. There has been
some talk about his having undergone marked personality.
changes during that period in his life, but we actually
not know whether and, if so, to what extent his psyche
suffered damage.
18. ANBIDDY_l's aged parents live in Cuba.
He pro-
fesses intense filial devotion toward his mother. Thus,
Centro has in his power two valuable hostages. We havehad
une frank talks with AMBIDDY-1 about this subject and he
ow that we are not unmindful of the purpose to which
ch hostages can be put. We have received no indications
pressures have as yet been brought to bear upon AMBIDDY-1,
do we have any concrete reason for believing that such..
pressures would be of much avail.
16. ANBIEDT-1's intense love of country strikes ne
as unfeigned. In the light of his resistance record and
feats of paremal sacrifice, we doubt whether he could
consciously bring himself to harming Cuba. His hatred of
Castro stems in the main from the latter's betrayal of the
revolution. AMBIDDY–1 frequently mentions Cuba's subvervience
to the USSR as the darkest betrayal of all, but also voices
auception to other aspects of Castro's tyrany.
17. Can we take AMBIDDY-1's professions of faith in
democratic principles and the Constitution of 1940 at face
value? I submit that we not do so as long as we are unable

reluctant to accept his writings and the program of the
as a valid base for judgement in this regard. In the final
analysis, it may turn out that what animates AKBIDDY-1 in his
unwavering opposition to Castro is the fact that as long as
Castro is "in" AMBIDOT-1 is likely to rentin “out.” That,
for purposes of justifying our suppert to hin, may suffice.

mockery of autonomy.
19. One of the benefits we have reaped from autonomy
is that the American position vis-a-vis AMFORLD and particularly.
the elements of self-interest which animate us in supporting
this project can be clearly spelled out without necessarily
jeopardizing the project.

30. ANBIDDY-1's manifest dependency upon American
goodwill, while an element of latent control and as such
recognized by AMBIDDY-1, ought not be kept in the forefront
of our dealings with his inasmuch as it injects another.
element of instability which forces AMBIDDY-1 to worry about
his rear whereas he ought be concentrating on his froat.
Too frequent harping on the consequences of American dia
pleasure cannot serve to forward our project.
81. AKRIDUY-1 has been known to make quite a fough
of his resentment at diceptive promises and broken commit
ments. Our record in this respect, while not unblemished,
is fairly good. We can see no merit in practicing deception
and much to commend candor in dealings with him. ANBIDDY-1's
own record of living up to commitments is somewhat marred by
his shortemmings as an organizer and administrator. There
have been no instances of demonstrable bad faith. However,
seeming indications of assent on his part are frequently
seant to denote no more than that be comprehends what has
been said.
88. In providing AMBIDOY-1 with political guidanca,
we should strive to relieve him of all preoccupation with
the vagaries of United States foreign policy and to dia-
courage atarlle demonological speculation.

SUBJECT: Photographs of Adelaida Padros y Crus
The subject of photographs' of AMBIDOT-1's mistress
was not raised by him at this meeting. He made no
reference to Adelaida, and I did not bring up the subject.
I did get the impression on no basis in particular that
he was not concerned about the problem of Adelaida and
apparently she is settled in Managua and not causing
any problems at the moment. As the subject was not
discussed, however, I would like to state that as a
sebulous personal opinion, not as a reporting of fast.

Reference
UFGW-3963, 29 June 1964
WAVE has determined that IDEN presently resides at
881 N.E. 71st Street, Miami. The house she lives in has a
"For Sale" sign on it by a real estate broker named Henry
Chamberlain whose office is located at 7768 Biscayne Blvd.
2. WAVE has checked the public records pertaining to
the above property and the following information was obtained;
A. "The property is reported being located at
881 N.E. 71st Street, Lot 124, Washington: Place, Plot
Book 20, Page 54. The house was built in 1940 and
purchased on 4 May 1951 by Miriam C. Humes for $19,000.
Miss Humes married John C. McCarthy on 4 October 1961.
The couple got a mortgage from First Federal Bank, Miami,
for $12,400, at which time the house was appraised for
$18,475. McCarthy died on 15 August 1962, and the title
is now in the name of Miriam C. McCarthy. She has ap-
proximately $6,000-$7,000 in equity. Present mortgage
is $11,495.57, and she pays $87.00 per month.
"
3. WAVE was unable to obtain any information regarding
AMBIDDY-1's interest, if any, in the property. It is possi-
ble that he intends to purchase some other property. WAVE
will continue to check all leads regarding houses in Miami of
interost to AMBIDDY-1 and will inform Headquarters of the results.

that this would not serve a useful purpose and might be
counter-productive. The relations with Mexico are
strained at present because of their adverse vote in the
OAS meeting and my people could see no way in which they
could intercede without directly indicating an official

if in uy opinion we might be able to assist in expediting
their entry into the United States as refugees seeking asylum
in case they were able to make their way to Mexice. I

situation.

DATE : 15 July 1964
FROM
Carlos A. RIVERA
SEPARATE COVER ATTACHMENT TO:
UFGA-14759, 21 August 1964
A few days ago I was able to read a report on the activities
in large scale of Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa, and the beginning of his
intimate relations with his present mistress.
Of this report I can mention the most outstanding passages as
I had to memorize them.
"Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa takes his first steps in the public
life as Political Sargent of the 'Partido del Pueblo Libre' (Party
of the Free People) whose leader at that time was Dr. Carlos.
MARQUEZ Sterling.
Later he directed his activities in the fight against General
BATISTA, going in the Sierra Maestra where he was apointed Lieu-
tenant by Major Humberto SORI-MARIN.
He was appointed Lieutenant because of his friendship with
Major SORI-MARIN, because he was catholic, and because of the lack
of trained persons in the Sierra Maestra.
There are more news on Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa when he
published the open letter in the newspaper "Avance" denouncing
the Castro Regime. The letter was published after he left Cuba,
while in Exile in Mexico.
:
In answering, the CASTRO Regime accuses him of having stolen
funds from the Cooperative of which he had charge.
This was
certified by his friend Major Humberto SORI-MARIN.
When he arrives in the USA, that is in Miami, Florida, he is
guest of Mr. Ricardo LORIE and Mr. Michael YABOR.
An argument begins within the MRR, in which there are two
sides, one includes Ricardo LORIE and Michael YABOR, and the

nother Dr. Manuel ARTINE Buesa and Miss Pepita Riera.
This argument becomes stronger because of the appointment of
the MRR Delegate to the Democratic Revolutionary Front.
Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa aspires with all his strength and
intrigues to this position.
He seeks the help of Mr. "Macko" BAQUER, who is said to
belong to the CIA and who at the same time supports the FRD (DRF).
He holds a meeting with Mr. SANJENIS in the Cafeteria Dough-
Nuts, at 8 and 33 Ave., SW.
Later, at a luncheon at the home of Mr. SANJENIS, in Fort
Lauderdale, he obtains the support of Manuel VILLAFANÁ, Pepita
RIERA, SANJENIS, and Mr. PAULA, who agree to help him in his plans
Nevertheless, he continues to look for support and tries with
the BATISTA sector, maintaining reunions with MUJAL, Chile 
MENDOZA
and Engineer BADIA.
The plans of the Council are being completed as far as the
camps in Guatemala, etc., and in order to get the control on the
civil and military sections, due to his excessive ambitions
, he
Col.
tries and obtains the support of the following persons:
RASCO, Dr. SARDINAS, Col. Orlando PIEDRA, Miguel SUAREZ Fernandez,
Caho HERMIDA, Laureano BATISTA Falla and Mr. Juan MESA, 
who is
said to be a CIA representative. It is common understanding that
this gentleman has helped him quite a bit.
He also receives the help of the Catholic Front through
Father GONZALEZ Posada and Father LLORENTE, who refused it at a
beginning.
With all this in his hands, he obtains the control of the
military phase and appoints officers of his trust to the commanding
SUEIRAS,
posts in Guatemala, such as the brothers San Roman,
Eneido OLIVA, Andrew Jr., Manuel VILLAFANA and Carol.
After the disaster of the Bay of Pigs and the return to Miami,
he continues with his activities, taking active part in the 
Orange
Bowl act, where President John F. KENNEDY is presented with 
the
"false" banner of the Brigade 2506.

That banner was never, at any time, in front of the Bay of
Pigs, but came from Guatemala, brought by MORO-MOLINET and which
- bears his signature on one corner.
The Government of the USA was advised that they would make
a political play with this banner, so it is returned to Fort
Bernnet, and is later destroyed by true revolutionaries.
Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa has had contact with the BIRCH Society,
group of crazy Nazi who is an infiltree of the Communists.
There are reports that his father has been a communist for
years in a department of Las Villas Province.
Beginning of his relations with his present mistress and date on
several figures forming his group.
▲ certain morning Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa visits the Restaur-
ant Rancho Luna, at 8 and 9 Ave., SW, accompanied by his chauffeur,
BASULTO.
Casually or prearranged, he meets Mr. Edgar SOPO Granda,
friend of Dr. ARTIME and member of the Brigade 2506. (This young
man is the son of a Navy officer under BATISTA, who committed
suicide in La Cabana at the beginning of the Revolution.)
SOPA Granda was in the company of his close friend Aida PEREZ
Pozo, who in turn was in the company of her "intimate" friends
Juana MANUELA and Adelaida PADRON.
At this meeting Dr. ARTIME and Adelaida PADRON liked each
other, and the great idyl is born.
Dr. ARTIME set up a house for Mrs. Adelaida PADRON on 71 NE
6 Ave., where she lives with her two smaller children by her first
marriage to Major Roger ROJAS Lavernia. It is rumored in the
circles close to this couple that Dr. ARTIME will soon marry this
woman.
These these women: Adelaida PADRON, Juana MANUELA, Aida PEREZ
Pozo, are known for their sexual deviations, that is, they are
three famous lesbiana.

They began to visit the MRR offices, and several of its
members complained because of their lack of morals.
Nevertheless, Mrs. Aida PEREZ Pozo was assigned in the
Intelligence department of the MRR with a salary of $100.00 per
month. It is rumored this was because of her close friendship
with Adelaida PADRON and ARTIME.
Adelaida PADRON:
Of humble family, she is known as servant of Mrs. Maria Luisa
GOMEZ-MENA, famous lesbian of the high society of Cuba.
She is her favorite servant and takes her along in her trips
to Europe, having great regards for her.
At the time that Adelaida PADRON was working for Mrs. Ma.
Luisa GOMEZ-MENA, the chauffeur of the latter was a brother of
the well known lesbian, Mrs. Luica CANO, better known by the
nickname of "La Campeona" (The Champion).
This is the reason for the great friendship between Adelaida
PADRON and Lucia CANO "La Campeona".
-
Adelaida PADRON is also a close friend of Flor de Lotto
LARRUA and Toni LAVERNIA, famous artists in Cuba.
Adelaide PADRON has arrived to her corruption. She boasts
of having had intimate contacts with leading women of the Cuban
society.
While she was still married to Major Roger ROJAS, she gave
a party at her house at 445 NE & 30 Ave., Miami, where among the
approximately thirty persons who assisted, there were about fifteen
lesbians and about five homosexuals. There is a picture of this
party in the "Revista Farandula" published about one and a half.
years ago.
General Fulgencio BATISTA was the witness at the wedding of
then Lieutenant Roger ROJAS Lavernia and "Miss" Adelaida PADRON.
This wedding took place with great roar in the Night-Club
Tropicana, of Havana, Cuba.
It is said that Adelaida PADRON maintained intimate relations

with General BATISTA, and that it is even certain that one of her
sons is of the General.
Later Adelaida PADRON gets the divorce and maintains intimate
relations with Mr. Pedrito SUAREZ.
Mr. Pedrito SUAREZ was a candidate for Mayor of Mariánao and
is a close friend of Dr. Rolando MASFERRER,
At present Mr. SUAREZ has intimate relations with a woman
named YOLANDA.
Mr. SUAREZ requested that Adelaida PADRON return a Chevrolet
Belair, 1953, to him, since he bought it, but she does not return

Mexican border, crossing the Rio Bravo.
They are lesbians and it is said that Juana Manuela is the
"husband" in this couple.
Juana MANUELA is the daughter of a District Attorney of
Las Villas, who has lately run into trouble with the Miami Police.
Because of their obscure positions here, it is believed that
they are infiltrees of the G-2.
At the present time Aida PEREZ Pozo resides with her sister,
Migdalia PEREZ Pozo, at 1432 NW 16 St., Apt. 1, Miami, Florida.

Although Adelaida PADRON maintains "intimate" relations with
several of her girl friends in Miami, she has confessed that the
one she likes completely is her "intimate girl friend", the wife
of Dr. Pedro RANOS, well known doctor who resides in Miami, Florida.
Dr.
Pedro RANOS resides at 213 NW 50 St., Miami, Florida.
Victoria PADRON:
She is the sister of Adelaida PADRON. She is tied in this

activities,
Victoria PADRON is married to an Italian-American whose name
is unknown.
Victoria PADRON lives in common-law with Mr. Raul GRANDA
married, ex-chief of the Military G-1 in the era of General
BATISTA.
According to what Aida PEREZ Pozo informed to Mr. Manolin
GARCIA, when the counter-revolution will succeed, Mr. Raul GRANDA
will occupy his post because it is a family affair through ARTIME,
Adelaida, etc.
NOTE: In all this love intrigue around Dr. Manuel ARTIME Buesa,
there could be the influence of two factors: either the infiltra-
tion of BATISTA elements, as almost all the components of the
groups have some link with him; or else infiltrees of Castroites
who work in the USA, since there are involved the relatives of
Lucia CANO, who are communists and still in Cuba. There is also
the link of Adelaida PADRON's sister with Major William GALVEZ,

ABSTRACT
BICEOFILUS
1. The Station continues to receive numerous reports on
AMBIDDY/1 activities. Most are fragmentary and based on stories
which 
someone has heard about town but invariably cannot be
traced to exact sources. Some of these reports are as follows:
The
AMRAZZ/1. The departure of AMBIDDY/1 and his
group from the WAVE area was due to pressure from ODACID.
This action was the result of the publicity generated by
AMWORLD after their successful operation. The departure
did not signify a loss of aid to AMWORLD from ODYOKE.
exit of AMYUM/19 from AMWORLD was due to his dissatisfaction
with AMBIDDY/1's immoralities. It is supposed that AMYUM/19
is a spokesman in this regard for the AGRUPACION CATOLICA.
AMBIDDY/1 is accused of leading a licentious life for some
time; having a mistress who was formerly a mistress of
Batista; and buying a house and presenting it to this woman.
It is also reported that he will marry this woman soon.
b.
AMRAZZ/1. Carlos MONTANER advised that AMBIDDY/1
has almost run out of funds and that his group will soon be
liquidated.
c. AMSHADY/1. The talk around town is that AMBIDDY/1
is now married to his girl friend. However, he is still
living with a male friend and she is still living with a
girl friend.

ANWORLD Meeting in New York, 6 October 1964.
SUBJECT: ANYORID Contingency Plans
تم
1. ANJAVA-4 said that AMBIDDY-1 was very enthusiastic
about the AMEIJEIRAS operation and felt this was the real
key to success of our program to overthrow the Castro
regine. He is prepared to concentrate on this operation
completely for the immediate future.
8. I asked A-4 if they had done any planning on th
basis that the AMEIJEIRAS operation might not pan out.
Be asked me directly whether a decision had been made to
continue or to cut off support to AMWORLD. I told him
that a decision had not been made but that my Headquarters
vas very interested in the outcome of the AMRIJEIRAS
operation on which he was working. He recognized the
importance of this operation and stated that he and A-1
had conjectured that future support to AMWORLD might be
contingent on success or failure of their handling of
that case. I did not confirm or deny this point but told
him that the organization would surely be happy if they
were able to handle it with success.
3. A-4 then explained that he and A-1 had spent
considerable time discussing the future of their program
and their prospects vis a vis the Agency. He said
that in their opinion one of two things would happen;
either the AMEIJEIRAS operation would pay off in which
case they would be able to continue to operate with Agency
support but with a diversion of major objectives or the
operation would peter out, in which case they would have
to consider what to do without Agency support. He said
that A-1 was not only prepared to accept a diversion of
primary objective but felt that present circumstances
dictated the wisdom of such a move. However, both of
them feel that their present paramilitary program must
be continued, not because it is crucial to the outcome
of the Cuban situation, but because the strength which
they exhibit through these operations is the only attrac-
tion to AMWORLD that has caused the AMEIJEIRAS group to
contact them.

SECRET
F
14-00000
In case the AMEIJEIRAS operation fails to develop,
the Agency should decide to cut off support to AMWORLD,
A-4 says they will continue to try to operate as long as
they can. He said that instead of 200 people they might
be operating with 20, but they could do something. So long
as they have the hardware with which to operate they can
"sell" operations each time. For example, he said, they
would go to Cuban exiles, to Venezuela, to American
businessmen, etc. and would tell them, "The October oper-
ation will cost $25,000. If you will underwrite it we
will dedicate it to you and run it in your name." Но
feels this would carry them for a few months provided they
can run a few successful operations.
B. A-4 said that when the support ran out the
hardware was all gone, and there was nothing left with
which to operate, A-1 would take 12 or 15 of his hard
core followers and go into the Escambray in Las Villas
to make one last ditch effort. I asked him if A-1 felt
he would have any chance of a success and A-4 stated that
should such a state come to pass, A-1 would definitely
go in with the expectation of being run down eventually
and shot but that he would do this in order to go out in
8 blaze of glory and to continue to serve as a martyr.
A-4 said there was absolutely no doubt in his mind that
A-1 would follow this course, that he had a hero compulsion
and a martyr complex and was completely without fear of death.
- again mentioned an idea held by A-1 that he will not live
past 29 January 1965 (his birthday) because he is convinced
that he is destined to reach the peak moment of his life
during his 33rd year (as did Jesus Christ) and does not
expect to live beyond that time.
I asked A-4 where he, “personally, stood in such a
future undertaking. He said that he was no hero, but he had
dedicated seven years of his life as a schoolboy and young
man to Cuban independence, and he sould not stop now.
He
would not go in deliberately to die as a martyr, but he would
continue with his work doing the best he could with whatever
means he could come by. He stated, "A-1 is not such a loader
as Tony VARONA who can separate himself completely from the
struggle and go out to sell used cars. A-1 cannot exist 12
a life which is routine and without personal power. He will
die first even in a suicidal mission." A-4 stated that
SECRET
14-00000
3, himself, was of a different nature but that it would be
just as impossible for him to go to a routine type of work
and leave the work of liberation of his country.
7. I asked A-4 what ANWORLD would do if they were
able to commence operations again. He said they had two
targets on the north coast that they would like to hit

then were confiscated by U. 8. Customs when he came through
Miami, but there were still enough remaining to plan an
operation. He asked if we might be able to help recover the
confiscated photos. I told him that if approval to recommence

operations was given, I was sure we could do so.
meantime, I was, of course, not authorized to discuss possible
future operations but/interested in 
what AMWORLD was thinking
along these lines. A-4 understood our position with the
current suspension of operations.

1.
AMBIDDY-1 inquired as to when the organizational
charts he requested from Carl would be ready. A-1 explained
these charts are urgently needed to prepare future plans
concerning the "dissident group." At present Nilo Messer
is being groomed to go to Madrid to be the liaison after
"Cuco" de Leon is replaced. "Cuco" de Leon is leaving
shortly for Nicaragua to commence infiltration training.
2. As to A-l's future plans he intends to leave for
Central America on Tuesday or Wednesday, 3 or 4 November.
AMJAVA-4 is leaving for Nicaragua on 2 November.
3. AMBIDDY-1 is sending Rafael Garcia, Luis Grillo,
and Amado Cantillo to the Dominican Republic to survey
the new location which President Reid has offered AMWORLD.
According to A-1 Reid has offered them an operations base
much closer to Cuba than Isla de Beata. At present A-1
is getting cost estimates on the 12 Swifts which President
Reid wishes to buy in the U. S. The different estimates
will be sent to President Roid with the three aforementioned
AMWORLDers. According to A-1 President Reid suggested that
AMWORLD could paint their Swifts the same colors as the
ones which the Dominicans will have.
4. A-1, Sixto Mesa, and John Monahan intend to meet
a group of wealthy American and Cuban bushessmen on Sunday
to solicit funds for AMWORLD. A-1 was advised to take a
hard look as to the motives of Mr. Monahan before getting

2 November 1964, 2100 hours
AMBIDDY-1 stated that he, AMWORLD-2 and John Monahan
met some wealthy, American businessmen on 1 November. One of
the Americans was the President of the American Medical Asso-.
ciation in Miami who promised AMWORLD medical supplies. A-1
mentioned that John Monahan spoke eloquently before the group
on behalf of AMWORLD. The undersigned mentioned to A-1 that
unlike Cuban businessmen, one has to take a more direct approach
with American businessmen as far as money is concerned. A-1
said the reason he has not made a direct pitch for money is
because he does not want to take the same approach other exile
organizations do. A-1 felt he would have better success in
getting a little from alot of people instead of alot from a few.
2. According to A-1, AMJAVA-4 will be leaving Thursday
for Nicaragua.
་་
3. A-1 advised that Nilo Messer and Antonio Sanz are now
in Spain. Antonio Sanz will return after placing Nilo in contact
with appropriate people in Spain. A-1 expects to meet with a
representative of the dissident group within the next two weeks.
A-1 did not elaborate as to the reason for his expectation.
A-1 again asked if the charts he requested would be turned
over to him when he meets Carl. A-1 was assured that Carl would
bring the charts to the meeting.
"Cuce" de Leon is leaving on 3 November for Nicaragua.
The three man group scheduled to go to the Dominican
Republic to survey the new AMWORLD site has been temporarily

delayed due to expired visas. A-1 has obtained the necessary
information for President Reid concerning the purchase of twelve
Swifts. This information will be sent with the three man group.
When asked why President Reid has not negotiated the purchase
of the Swifts himself, A-1 stated Reid tried to but found
embezzeling within his group. President Reid wants to show the
naval group he can purchase the Swifts on his own.
6. A-1 expects the Philco training school to begin on
3 November. Approximately 25 AMWORLDERS will attend the school.
A-1 said he had submitted a list of needed spare parts to
Philco but he has not received a reply. A-1 is checking other
radio corporations to obtain the lowest possible prices.
7. The MV SANTA MARIA is anchored off Monkey Point and
according to A-l is in top notch condition.
8. A-1 said he terminated his contract with station WRUL
in New York. A-1 intends to use the Dominican Republic to
bean long-wave programs to Cuba.
9. As of this month the "Tridente" will be reduced in
size and will be published monthly.
10.
A-1 was informed that Carl will arrive in West Palm
Beach at 2130 on 3 November. A-1 will be expecting a call from
Carl at the Diplomat Hotel.

1. After several unsuccessful attempts I was finally
able to contact AMBIDDY-1 and advise him that Carl wald
be unable to meet him at the agreed time. I informed
A-1 that Carl would contact him at 0900 on 4 November and
make arrangements for their meeting.
2. A-1 said he had received confirmation that the
Philco school had started on 2 November.
During this non-operational period A-1 is having
all his vessels checked out to see that they will be in
good operational condition. A-1 specifically alluded to
the LCM's that are presently being overhauled. The Swift
GITANA is also undergoing maintenance repairs.
4. Besides setting up Nilo Messer as AMWORLD's liaison
to the dissident group, Antonio Sanz is inquiring as to
the departure date of the RIO CAONAO. A-1 intends to
broach the topic of attacking the CAONAO with Carl.
A-1
stated that he hopes that Carl will have a final decision
for him on the CAONAO
5. Feeling that A-1 was probing for a sign as to what
decision has been made on the CAONAO, I changed the subject

AMBIDDY-1 called to say he had just returned from
Costa Rica where he spoke to President Orlich and his brother.
The Orlichs made no mention of expelling A-1, but, to the
contrary, are willing to continue to support AMWORLD.
only request made by President Orlich was that the arms barge
be taken out of Costa Rica for fear the Communists would
learn of its existence. A-1 said he will comply.
2. The topic of conversation quickly changed to the
newspaper article by Hal Hendrix which greeted A-1 upon his
arrival from Costa Rica about A-1 involvement in smuggling
activities in Costa Rica. We informed A-1 that Al Burt had
intended to publish a similar story but was scooped by Hendrix.
We asked A-1 what he thought of the idea of having President
Orlich issue a complete denial as soon as possible of A-l's
smuggling activities in Costa Rica. A-1 felt a presidential
denial was essential in counteracting this damaging publicity.
A-1 stated he would call President Orlich the first thing in
the morning on this matter. Another suggestion to neutralize
Hendrix's story was for A-1 to see Al Burt as soon as possible
and categorically deny the story. If need be A-¡ might want
to invite Burt to Costa Rica to speak to President Orlich and
confirm A-l's side of the story.

1. The undersigned telephoned AMBIDDY-1 to see if he
had an opportunity to speak with President Orlich. A-1 stated
he was unable to reach the President but did speak to the
President's secretary. The secretary advised A-1 that he was
unaware of the Hendrix story but he assured A-1 the entire story'
would be denied. A-1 informed Headquarters that he has sent
Manolin Hernandez with a copy of the story to see President
Orlich. A-1 commented that the initial reaction in Miami to
the story was one of indignation toward Hendrix.
2. When we called A-1, he was on his way to see Al Burt.
A-1 had already talked to Burt by phone and they had made an
appointment to discuss the entire matter this morning. Burt
told A-1 on the phone that rumors concerning A-l's activity
had reached him. A-1 said he would tell Burt that President
Orlich would issue a complete denial of the Hendrix allegations.
A-1 was cautioned not to forget that Burt is primarily a
newspaperman and therefore to be on guard as to what he tells
Burt.
A-1 was advised to take a fire stand against Philco
concerning Jim Lee. Lee should be sent back to the U. S. as
Boon as possible. A-1 was requested to reject any proposals
by Philco for consultations in Miami or Central America con-
cerning Lee. A-1 should tell King to telephone Philco ou
Monday (23 Nov) and make it quite clear AMWORLD cannot afford
to pay needless travelling expenses of Philco representatives.
King should also ask for a price list for the spare parts.
If Philco cannot comply, A-1 was advised 8/them he will buy
`his spare parts elsewhere.

SUBJECT: Telephons Conversation Between AMBIDDY-1
and Dick
DATE:
21 November 1964, 1600 hours
1. At 1600 hours, 21 November 1964, I complied with
AMBIDDY-1's request relayed through the Security Office
that he be called on Franklin 3-1568 in Miami.
2. AMBIDDY-1' described reports reaching him of
mysterious phone calls being received by various Cubans
in Miami, mostly MRR personnel or wives of MRR members.
These calls started during the morning of 21 November.
The caller was a North American who spoke Spanish and gave
his name as "Bill Jones." The caller sought in each case
to solicit derogatory information about AMBIDDY-1, with
particular emphasis on A-l's alleged participation in
Smuggling activities. The caller offered money (A-1 did
not know how much) for derogatory information.
3. A-1 mentioned two persons who received calls:
AMYUM-19 and the wife of Manolin Hernandez. In addition
to smuggling, A-19 was also asked if the reason he broke
with A-1 was because of the marriages of AMJAVA-4 or A-1.
A-19 denied these allegations to the caller.
--
4. A-1 said that the story spreading through Miami
as a result of these calls is that the U.S. Government
and probably CIA specifically -- was attempting to discredit
A-1 as a basis for denouncing him. A-1 was obviously
distressed by these speculations, and in reporting them
he was in reality asking the question. I gave him my.
unequivocal assurance that the U.S. Government was not.
responsible for the calls..
5. I asked A-1 who he thought was responsible and
he said "maybe the Miami Herald." A-1 said that he had
seen Al Burt earlier in the day (Saturday, 21 November)
and that Burt was angry because he felt that the recent
SECRET
email:
14-00000
TV coverage of the AMWORLD camps and activities in Central
America was a scoop to which he was rightfully entitled
because of a prior agreement with AMBIDDY–1.
A-1 gave
Burt his side of the stories being circulated about
ANWORLD's contraband activities. A-1 felt that he
made an impression. Burt was particularly interested
in a denial of these charges which A-l told Burt would
be issued very soon by the President of Costa Rica (see
following paragraph). A-l said he thought that he may.
have mollified Burt somewhat by having the meeting and a
by promising him scoops in the future, but that Burt
still holds a grudge against him.
6. AMBIDDY-1 said he was expecting momentarily
a call from Manolin Hernandez in San Jose. Hopefully,
Hernandez' call would be to read a public letter from
President Orlich officially denying the presence of
AMWORLD training camps in Costa Rica and disavowing
charges that A-1 or his people were involved in smuggling.
Orlich promised A-1 to issue such a letter. When he gets
a copy of this letter A-1 intends to hold a press
conference and use it as the heart of his effort to set
the record straight about charges that AMWORLD is involved
in running contraband.
7.
I told A-1 that we would look into his report on
the mysterious phone calls and that we would let him know
what we find out.

be had the chance meeting with AMCARBON-1 & he asked that
ANCARBON-1 not tell anyone in Miami that no and seen AMBIDDY-1 in
Santo Domingo. As an aftermath of this chile meeting, AMCARBON-I
arranged for AMBIDDY-1 to talk with Mr. Hard DIEDERICH, a free-

The purpose of
The
this conversation was to enable Diederion Kive AMBIDDY-1 a
briefing on the Haitian scene and, as a fol-up, arrange a
meeting between AMBIDDY-1 and certain Haition exile leaders.
meeting with the Haitians took place at Diderich's house on
18 October 1964. The meeting was attended ANCARBON-1, AMBIDDY-1,
a Cuban known as Nilo Jesus MESSER Pujol (3)-294655), Father
BAJEUX and Sylvia *WADESTRANDT. After a Beliminary series of
discussions, &MBIDDY-1 adjourned to another room of the Diederich
house to talk privately with Father Bajoux and Sylvia Wadestrandt.
At the end of this private meeting, AMCARD-1 had an opportunity
to talk with AMBIDDY-1. As a result, AC-1 learned that, as
of 18 October 1964, it was AMBIDDY-1's intention to help the
Haitians in their fight against Duvalier. AMBIDDY-1 believed
that he could furnish the arms and the transportation for the
invasion of Haith by Haitian exiles. AMBIY-1 was also talking
about committing some of his troops to such an invasion as he
felt that, if he were successful in this venture, he could obtain
significant base rights for his organization in Haiti. These bases
would in turn be used by AMBIDDY-1's operations against PBRUMEN.
2. On the morning of 19 October 1964, ANCARBON-1 had an
opportunity to talk in Santo Domingo with ban called Rafael
Garcia who is AMBIDDY-1's representative in the Dominican Republic.
Garcia indicated that he doubted that ABDY-1 would participate
in a Haitian invasion. In this connection marcia made the point

Juan Antonio CANCELA Gomes (201-758689)
Possible Connection with Cusan G-2
1.
7 December 1964 during the course of a
telephone conversation with ANBIDDY-1, he indicated that
it was possible that Subject was connected with the Cuban
0-3. AMBIDDY-1 suspects that CANCELA was sent by the 0-2
to penetrate the ANYUM training camps.
8. Subject spent one month at the training camps
and then asked to return to Miami. Upon his return to
Miami he then made plans to travel to Nassau alleging
that he had to go to Nassau in order to obtain & permanent
visa to enter the U.S. AMBIDDY-1 had this story checked
out with the U.S. I&NS and discovered that this was not
Recessary to enter the country on a permanent basis.
AMBIDDY-1 therefore concluded that Subject was attempting
to Nassau and eventually work his way back to Cuba.
3. No further information was obtained on this
tter.
