role
in 
determining Spanish domestic and foreign policy, and

Project WUBRINY Possible Operational
Support of Madrid Station Objectives by
Edward G. TICHBORN (P)
OSMA 23, 350 Dated 11 January 1968
Per Mr. Long's request, the undersigned on 30 January 1968
discussed with 
Edward 
G. TIGHBORN (P) possible support of Madrid
Station objectives 
as raised in ref. It was confirmed that:
WUSALINE/Iberia can be used as an information collection
mechanism in cases where information requirements can be couched
in plausible economic and commercial terms for contractual surveys.
b. TICHBORN can assess
ssess and develop selected Spanish contacts
of Madrid Station who may be visiting New York and who desire
introductions 
in US commercial circles.
TICHBORN can develop Spaniards in New York as may
of operational interest
be
est 
to th
the Madrid Station. TICHBORN has not
made an effort to develop Spaniards in New York but is willing and
able to do so 
for any designated as operational targets. If desired,
TICHBORN 
thinks he can meet the Spanish Ambassador to the U.S.
through a friend, Senator Jose Montoya of New Mexico.
d. TICHBORN feels that he could write an article concerning
leading Spanish industrialists and bankers for publishing in a pro-
minent 
publication, such as "Life International." TICHBORN
believes that he has excellent bonafides for such a task because
he previously published in "Life International" a four-page spread
on birth control 
in Latin America. This article was favorably
reviewed. TICHBORN suggested a related article on the popula-
tion 
explosion in Europe and its effect on business as a possible
topic for interviewing leading Spanish businessmen. TICHBORN,
14-00000
as a result of journalistic collaboration with Katherine Anne
Porter, is represented in New York by a top literary agent,
Monica McCall. TICHBORN thinks that it would take him two
to three weeks in Spain interviewing top Spanish industrialists
and bankers. He would send letters in advance to these targets
informing them of his proposed itinerary, the purpose of his
trip,
and enclosing copies of his previous articles with favor-
able reviewer comments. He could be essentially a free lance
journalist or have a business purpose as well. In the latter
connection, it is of interest that following TICHBORN's trip to
Spain, WUBRINY/1 sent a geologist to WUSALINE/Iberia to look
into acquisition of silver properties in Spain. This purely com-
mercial development appears to be a direct result of TICHBORN's
trip and thus enhances TICHBORN's commercial bonafides.
2. It is understood that E/IB/S has a copy of TICHBORN's report
for dispatch to the Madrid Station per ref.
3. Personnel concerned with Project WUBRINY will be glad to
work with E/IB/S in any follow-up to the possibilities noted above.

Possible Exploitation of ICAP Iberia, S.A.
1. Reference is made to the meeting on subject with
Mr. Osborne Day, DCOS/Madrid, Mr. Stephen Munger, DC/E/IB, and
Mr. Gale Allen of DOCO just prior to Mr. Dav's departure for
Madrid. It is recalled that Mr. Allen agreed to pass the most
recent information on ICAP Iberia, S.A. to E/IB for transmittal
to Mr. Day in Madrid. Mr. Day would review this information
together with that known to the station and determine if the
firm has an operational potential for the Madrid Station.
the event of an affirmative determination, Mr. Day indicated
that he would be interested in the assignment to ICAP Iberia
of a DO career commercial operations officer who would be carried
on the DO t/o but would be assigned operational tasks by the
Madrid Station.

2. ICAP Iberia, S.A. (see brochure attached as Tab A) is
joint venture company formed by a DO proprietary company, ICAP
Corporation, New York, and the Spanish Corporation banif S.A.
It is domiciled in the Banif offices at Juan Bravo 2, Madrid,
Spain, and currently has no staff. Two of the Banif Directors,
Miguel Echegaray and Juan Antonio Ruiz de Alda, concern them-
selves with ICAP matters on a day to day basis when required.
ICAP Iberia serves mainly as the clearing house for Banif business
requiring support by ICAP New York and for ICAP business requiring
support by Banir in Spain. Recently in a letter dated 4 October 1966
the President of Sanif, Juan A. Ruiz de Alda, suggested to the
President of ICAP Corporation that a man and secretary be
assigned
to 1CAP Iberia to "keep issues alive, look for new ones, and obtain
the backing of our organizations for the completion of the work to
to be done." The stage thus appears to be set if WOFACT should
désire to assign an officer to ICAP Iberia, S.A.

3. The operational potential of ICAP Iberis. S.A., other
than non-official commercial cover, must necessarily depend upon
the
activities, personnel, and contacts of Banif. As may be
noted in the descriptive note on Banif attached as Fab B, the
activities of Banif include research, consulting
new business, underwriting, and investment. These
cut across most aspects of economic and political life in Spain.
Banif's personnel have impressive backgrounds and its clients
and references are of a very high level.
4. Attached as Tab C are three additional pamphlets on
Banif covering its research and study department, its financial
services, and its investment bulletin.

DATE: 8 November 1966
SUBJECT: ✅ Information about Spain (and Portugal)
I have a request which seems to me to be right up the alley
of your friend, WUBRINY/1. I would hope, therefore, that he will try
to do us a fairly rapid and yet analytic job.
2. The request is for as accurate information as possible on
the following questions:
What or who, or both, represent the most significant
power
wer 
elements in the economic or commercial field in Spain
today? Wherever possible, even in the cases where potent
companies have been named, specific individuals having the
positions of authority should be identified. In addition, where-
ever possible, relationships between these individuals and
American interests whether a company or another individual
should be specified.
b. What American interests, corporate or personal, have
major investments or holdings in Spain? What are the nature
of their investments or holdings and who are the individuals
basically responsible?
c.
To the extent possible, provide the san:e answers as
sted above for Portugal. Since Spain is of greater
should only be answered to the extent possible
est, this question penditure of time. If on the other hand it
without too great an
is felt that good answers can be provided with regard to Portugal
given extra time, I would suggest that the Spanish answers bu
submitted as soon as possible and the Portuguese information
given at a later data.
3. I would appreciate it if you could let me know as soon as pos-
sible WUBRINY/I's reaction to the above requests - can he get the answers;
will they be in considerable detail and how long does he think that it will take?
P.S. It is assumed that, if it is possible to do it at all, the
above request can be carried out without stirring a lot of curiosity
and consequent inquiry

Attached under separate cover is a press clip of a front-pag
editorial which appeared in Newspaper B on 18 December 1961. According
to TICHSORN, the "press interview" was arranged on 15 December through
telephone conversation initiated by an assistant staff writer of News-
paper B. At that time, TICSBORN was requested to prepare a written commen-
tary on the topic as presented in the press clip, and on the evening of
15 December, TICHBORN's drafted commentary was submitted to a minor staff
writer of Newspaper B. While the subject press article was presented as
a personal "interview" with by-line authorship given to the writer as
indicated, TICHBORN reports that he and the credited author have never been
in contact with each other. Subject clip is being forwarded for Head-
quarters information and interest.

La elección reciente de Enrique González, abogado

creciente importancia de la población mexicnamerica-

ABSTRACT
MICROFILM
The Station will recall that part of Edward G. Tichborn's cover is
provided by DTEMEARGO. Before leaving for Mexico, ho met Staff Agent Michael
J. Skirman (p) and 
was told to develop a relationship with DT EMBARGO and
Skirman through correspondence. It was suggested that he might submit an
occasional article for consideration by JHWOOL (Identity 6 of reference).
for
2. Tichborn has submitted his first article. While possibly suitable
publication 
in certain kinds of 
magazines ("The New Leader", "The Reporter", or
The Saturday Review"), it is not 
suitable for JMWOOL since it is a journalistic
think-piece and not 
a scholarly effort and it is by and large critical of The
Alianza 
para el Progreso and the United States role in The Alianza and in Latin
America in 
general.
It is therefore requested that Station explain to Tichborn, if he brings
this matter 
up, that JMWOOL is designed 
to support and foster United States
policies in Latin
and not gratuitously to criticize them, regardless
of the purpose of the criticism.

Although the sweet sound of 20 billion dollars created a momentary
euphoria at the Punta del Este conference several weeks ago, it is now ob
rious that President Kennedy's prodigious "Alianza para el Progreso"
faces a difficult uncertain future.
The delegates had scarcely returned home when the Goulart-Brazilian
crisis erupted and thereby threatened the very beginnings of Kennedy's hope-
ful proposal. And certainly no seasoned cbserver of Latin American poll-
tes can assume that the Brazilian crisis has been resolved by the quickly-
devised modus operandi which permitted Joao Goulart to assume the preal-
dency. Goulart instated the constitutional amendment Umiting his powers.
be submitted to Brazilian voters in a referendum, clearly indicating he wil!
not be content with a mere figurehead status. With the conservative mili-
tarists still adamant in their opposition to a fully-powered Goulart, a civil
war (a prolonged and bloody one) may be in the offing. Meanwhile, the cre-
ators of the Alliance for Progress find themselves in a watchful, hopeful
dither.
But, aside from the Brazilian problem, the Allangs already had and
still has a number of formidable obstacles which were readily observable
from the outset. Fully granting the immense possibilities offered by this
economic Magna Carta for the Americas, it would be foolish to overlook or
to minimize those pasie harsh realities of which dreams are not made.
Among the toughest realities facing the Alliance is the Congress of
the United States, which has always been reluctant to approve long-range

Then, in a week of
foreign aid. Even before the U. S. delegation had returned to Washington,
Senator Thruston Morton grumplly informed the press that the Republican
Party would have no part of Dillon's wild schemes.
now-you-have-it-now-you-don't bickering in the House and Senate, the Al-
llance spendars were given to understand that the carto is not quite so
blanche as they might hops.
Even assuming a more generous Congressional attitude toward long-
range financing rather than year-to-year appropriations, some observers
were inclined to skepticism in re Treasury Secretary Dillon's implied prom-
ise of 20 billion dollars over a ten-year period. Answering the skeptics,
Dillon assured the Punta del Este delegates that a large ahare of the 20 bil-
lion would come from auch already-established and soon-to-be-expanded
agencies as the Export-Import Bank, Development Loan Fund, the World
Bank, the International Cooperation Administration, International Fleance
Corporation and the Inter-American Development Bank. He also expects.
increased investment by private entities. But, notwithstanding such assur-
sances, certala financial experts view Dillon's figures as overly optimistic.
They point cat, for example, that Dillon's expectation of 300 million dollars
from the World Bank is unrealistic in view of the fact that it extended only
148 million dollars in credits to Latin America in 1960.
As for Secretary Dillon's expectations for increased investments and
loans from private sources, the skeptics would appear to have even greater
1. BET, IT WAS IN Maldi, bə polebki poo

reason for gloom. On August 2nd of this year the U.S. Department of
Commerce pused a report indiesting a sharp unprecedented crop in
private U. 8. Investments in Latin America. Whereas in 1959 said invest-
ments totaled 218 million dollars, the total catapulted to a mare 95 million
In 1960, a loss of more than 50 per cent in one year. Much of the blame
for this sudden fear can be traced to the Cuban revolution and the sudden
upsurge of revolutionary fervor elecwhere in the hemisphere. However,
fiscal experts are quick to point out two other factors: (1) the termination
of heretofore accelerated expansion of mining operations and (3) the sud-
den deceleration of activity in the petroleum ladustry in Venezuela In the
latter case one cannot diamtes the impact of Castro's expropriation policies
as reflected in neighboring republics.
Traveling through the U. B. (reading and hearing prons and television
commentaries and talking with certain members of Congress), one gets the
Impression that the Allanxa's primary problems will be of an economie na-
turo. But, here in Mexico and elsewhere in Latin America, one has the
feeling that the political obstacles will be equally if not more trozblesome.
For President Kennedy and his aides the sine qua non of the Allanza
a program of structural reforma -- adininutrative, fiscal, agrarian, etc.
by all or most of the participating countries. Perhaps no late, the U. 8.
has realized that the Castrolam it so vehemently abhors and fears has its
most effective base where aqualor and disease and social injustice abound
in the presence of arrogant wealth and power. Whereas Uncle Sam once
supported and coddled the Trujillos, Sam, Jimenes, et al,, it now
espouses political and social reforms of a fundamental nature.
But it is
this very insistence on reform (Kennedy has indeed reiterated the phrase
"revolation"), this penchant for social change, which has evoked the most
skepticism in Latin America.
In solemn heraldic language the 21 nations of the hemisphere prom
laed in writing that the needed reforms would be accomplished, but there
must have been many a crossed flager guiding the peas that signed the final
document. Will El Salvador's powerful well-entrenched fourteen families”
stand idly by while as agrarian program anatches away their vast coffee
plantations? And what about the land-rich bacendados of Bolivia, Nicaragua,
Para, Brasil and other hemisphere republics? For all the vague illusory
promises of basic reforme at Panta del Este, one cannot ignore this uzavold-
able truth: most of Kennedy's hoped-for reforms will seriously affect the
personal economic fortunes of the governing cliques in the countries involved.
One seriously don'ts that these gentlemen shall willingly preside over the U-
quidation of their personal empires. This in spite of the fact that all of them
are fully (or at least partially) aware that, unless voluntary drastic reforms
are accomplished, their vast holdings will be taken from them forcibly by
some emerging local Fidel Castro. And it may well bo that their stubborn
resistance to change is buttressed by the millions of dollars they have
videntially stashed away is Swiss and American banks during the past few
years. In short, they may be engaging in a prolonged "bolding action" ta
the sare knowledge that their days are numbered.
In any event, the promised agrarian or flecal reforms may paradaxi-
cally lead to either of two extremos, both of which would frustrate the stated
intentions of the Alliance. On the one hand, Government X might place its
program in the hands of timid conservatives who interpret "evolution" as
"status que with minimal changes. Or the whole matter might be referred
do-nothing, what's - in - it - for- me congressional bodies, with little
or no prodidlag from the executive Branch of government. On the other hand,
Government X might incalge ta hasty improvised measures born of public
clamor and political flaccidity, all of which could produce one of those night-
mare fracasos which embarrass over the most ardent revolutionary. Most
of Latin America considers itself decades bebind in the socio-economic
velopment of the West, and the urge to move quickly and drastically is every-
where evident.
Now a word about Mr. Dillon's expectations in the realm of private
investments as part of the Aliana para el Progreso, According to reports
in come of the business journals, prospective investors from Aaropa, Japan
and the United States have certain misgivings about the program.
First of all, these businessmen feel that the Alliance offers only
minimal encouragement for private investmont la Latin America. Indeed,
come ars quick to point out that in his initial speech at Punta del Este, Ssare-
tary Dillion did not once mention private enterprise -- nar in any of his sub-
BEFRONT Comments before the committee on labor. They feal, therefore,
that the Alliance is oriented toward gover an eat-to-government loans nad
14-00000
public works projects on maasive scales beyond the scope of the individual
entrepreneur.
Secondly, there's considerable doubt as to the real intentions of
Latia American governmente la re flacal reform. It will be exceedingly
difficult, they say, to alter the long-standing pattern of heavy reliance on
import duties and stiff taxes for foreign corporations. Income taxes are
comparatively low and tax collection notoriously lax and subject to easy
evasion by individuals, merchants and local corporations alike,
Thirdly, these foreign investore are especially dubious about the
agrarian aspects of the Allanga. They are predictably apprehensive about
expropriation of their immense landholdings for distribution in small par-
cola among the landless campesinos. (In his state of the union speech on Sep
tambar lat, Mexico's President Lopes Mateos reported the recent government
acquisition of three huge latifundies heretofore owned by Americans.) But
aside from a disinclination to see themselves "done in", cartata Careiga
bratassaman contand that small farms (or ejidos) are not nearly as produc-
tive acre-per-acre as the larger estates -- that even the "cooperatives" of
the Fidel Castro type will prove "aneconomic," Rather than expropriate
and divide the existing highly productive Landics, these gentlemen propose
immediate and widespread colonization of snused lands, This, they argue,
would be cheaper because there would be no cost of Indemnification for ex-
propriated properties nor a dialection of productive capacity. For this
reason they far prefer the coloatation meanuran of Pers and Braall to the
more drastic style of Mexico and Ratvia.
i
However, all of the aforementioned uncertainties are of less concern
than the omnipresent X factor: the impact of Fidel Castro on all of Latin
America. How, why, and to what extent can Fidelismo affect the Allanza
para al Promet Some cheervers feel that Castro is indeed the real (if
not de jure) father of the Alliance; that without his cataclysmic emergents,
the United States would have continued to ignore the pour-cousin repablies
of the south. (In the 1950's only 3% of our foreign aid want to the 21 nations
which comprise Latin America. Laes alone received more aid than all of
these countries combined.) But, more importantly, the Chan premier has
aroused the expectations of the heretofore sullen masses throughout the homis-
phere, and their respective leaders have become acataly aware of the rambling
of these politicos would no doubt welcome a sudden disposal
discontent.
of the Castro annoyance, but none of them would have participated in a 12070
to openly chastics Cala at the Punta del Este conference. As a matter of fact,
"Che" Guevara managed to accomplish a few minor triumphs despite the cool
reception he got from most of the delegates. His post-conference meetings
with President Frondist of Argentina and ex-Prealdant Quadros of Brazil
are not to be taken lightly.
Although the United States managed to obtain all of the desired signa
tures on the final declaration at Uraguay, it would be naive for to to gespase
that we can once again count on the heretofore solid backing of Latin America.
There is, in fact, an increased spirit of neutralism or independence (call it
what you will) throughout the homlephere. Note, for example, that chiring
14-00000
the conference the than vico-president (now president) of Brazil was on an
Polis, to, had sent a mission to Russia.
And shortly after the conference, President Lopez Mateos told an opening
seasion of the Mexican congress that his country has been and will continue
to follow an independent course, free of any adherence to either of the great
powers.
It would appear, therefore, that the Alliance for Progress faces a
tougher and more devious course than the Good Neighbor policy of Franklin
Roosevelt. And it is equally apparent that unlean the plan does succeed,
-
there will be a prolonged period of unrest, bloodshed and misery perhaps
oblivion.

MEMORANDUN FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Final Arrangements for Edward G. Tichborn's (P).
Contract Status 
in Nexico.
REFERENCE:
Memorandum for the Record, dated 17 May 1961
1. When I talked with Tickworn (P) on Wednesday, 17 May,
to 
arrange a meeting with him for 
Resara. Collins and McCoy,
be stated that he was most anxious to 
leave on Saturday for
Nexico City and wanted to 
know if final detalls could be
taken care of at 
our arranged meeting on the 19th in order
that be could depart on 
Saturday, the 20th. As I told Tichborn,
I was somewhat surprised that he planned to leave 40-4
although I did know 
he was anxious to get settled as soon
as possible. I said 
I would do everything possible to make
the final arrangements 
so that he could leave as be planned.
2. As a result, Mr. Charles Penney, WH/CA, Mr. Michael
and 
the undersigned of 
CA/PAG, and Tichborn met Friday the
19th at the Roger Smith 
Hotel to talk about the
Subjeet's 
contract, to brief him on operational
of
Station contact, etc. Mr. Penney had also arranged that one
of their agents connected 
with the Pan American Institute of
the University of 
Florida meet Pieborn during the briefing.
This individual did attend 
the meeting briefly and it is
anticipated that perhaps 
at a later date, this organisation
might be useful as cover for 
Tichborn in some of his endeavors
and might also be used 
as a vehicle for bringing promising
25320
students to the US. Tichborn (P) was told that he should
write a a letter to this individual upon his arrival in
Nexico City alerting him that he had arrived.
3. Most of
of 
the time was taken up with talking about
terms of the contract. Briefly, Tichborn will have e
wo-year contract covering 50% of his time, and will be
paid a salary of $8,000 per annum. In addition, for any
po made outside Mexico in connection with his assignment,
he vill receive travel and operational expenses plus per dien.
He will also receive mileage for his automobile when it is
used in the course of duty and will be reimbursed for any
fees related to his registering (probably as an auditor)
he
at the University of Mexico, Poletecnico, etc. in connection
with his & assignment. He will paid on a monthly basis,
probably sending a check to his bank in Los Angeles. Detaile
need to be worked out on the cover firm to be used in making
such deposits and this is being taken care of by both PAG
and VHD (it might be possible to use the same fira as in
the past, Ashmead, Haniford Associates). Tichborn was
also advised as to some items which cannot be claimed
under operational expenses" such as air flight insurance,
purchase of personal clothing, parking of automobile while
on TDY, broken eye-glasses, etc. He was also told that
any questimable items should be checked out with his Station
contact and all rouchers and submission of accounting would
be made to that person.
29 May
vas told that he would be contacted on
plans to drive to Mexico City and arrive there 03:
abcut 25 May) by someone from the Station using an assumed
name which vas provided him. Tichborn will be staying at
the Botel Montejo on avenida Reforma; he can also be reached
by leaving a message at
be legitimately explore Wells Fargo, Reforma 6. He will also
as legal representative by Mr. John
Manson, owner of Producciones Marc IV, Melchor Ocampo 463-8,
Mexico City 5. A clearance is being obtained by WH on Kanson
although it is not planned to make him witting of Tichborn's
activition.
Tichborn (P) is to concentrate on spotting students
with political potential, who would then hopefully be brought
to the 
U.S. for study. It is also anticipated that he would
be 
used 
from time to time to assess the general political
situation in various Latin American countries, as he has done
in the past, and perhaps also to act as advisor in election
operations wh
when such need arises. Subject brought up the
subject of Mexican politics and stated that during his
conversation with Messrs. Collins and McCoy they had stated
that it would be helpful if he could contacts with
Mexican politicians in order to report on the political
situation as a whole and on the split in the PRI party
particularly. (I checked this out today with Mr. McCoy
and he said that Subject had exaggerated a bit and that
this was only discussed in general terms, and that they
had specifically told Tichborn that his operational
instructions would come from the Station,) Mr. Penney
told Tichborn in this connection that he should only
would not be to his advantage to begin working in
✓ Oncentrate on student affairs for the time being and that
a field which is already being covered by the Embassy and
the Station. It is thought that he will eventually be
eased into this type of activity, but he should not engage
in such activities until he receives a go-ahead from his
contact. Subject understood and agreed.
WED is now writing up the contract and it will be
sent to the Station for Tichborn's
It will be
dated 25 May 1961. Mr. Penney has
to show this
contract to CA/PAO prior to for
forwarding it to the Station.
Other than 
clarifying cover arrangements for his monthly
salary deposits, there are no outstanding matters to be
settled in connection with Tichborn's contract status.

2. Prior to leaving for TDY Mr Davis asked no to

considerable amount of time to operational activities; the
ala 
drav-back is that the salary (used) apparently to
not adequate or commensurate to the income Tichborn (F) has
darived from his lay practice in the past.
As to Tichborn's (F) present situation, he is anxious
to get settled as soon as possible and is waiting to ceteralne

he recis very strangly and which he stressed when talking to 10/6
(Students) was that he feels a great deal remains to be done
in the student and professor fields. Among other related suggestions,
feels that more politically promising students should be brought
to the U.S. for study. In order to accomplish the objective or
calisting such potential leaders to our cause, he feels a thorough
axutting program should be undertaken and that the criteria for
Belection of such individuals should be based on this potential
rather than ca ast academic records per se which is the current
tanto for selection in current exchange fals, and
rightly so, that good grades not necessarily sypos with
Leadership qualities. In Latin universities so students spend
sure time on their political activities than they do on their
academic work, and it is among this group that the potential
political leaders are found, hence, a new set of criteria are
necessary in order to satisfy our requirements and interests.
Tichborn (P) also fcola that professors could be recruited to
assist in such spotting and also that there should be an expanded
exchange
of such individuals in the U.S. Our efforts along these
Lines would not conflict with those exchange programs already in
effect since our objectives would be different and the type of
student or professor involved would be of a different calibro
and nature. 10/6 it that gichora (P) has much potential along
these lines sal vas very much interested in his ides per se. The
only difficulty they foresaw for the present is that they have
no organization in existence under which such an activity wild
be undertaken and hence, if it were agreed to follow up on this,
some kind of a private institution or organization would have to
be established and this wild require at least six months.
6. The meeting with Mr. Penney of YH was wet fruitful.

Collins felt, and rightly so, that this operation would perit
the full utilization of Tichborn's (P) talents in the political

an assignment. He suzuested that I talk about this possible
project in more detail with Mr. Harlow Duffin of WH/1, which I
aid: Mr. Duffin stated that this operation is still in the
preparatory stage and that a project must be approved, ete which

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Debriefing of Edward G. Tichborn (P) upon Return
from El Salvador
REFERENCE: Memo for the Record, "Plans for Debriefing of
Edward G. Tichborn (P) in Washington," dated
8 March 1961
1. Edward G. Tichborn (P) arrived in Washington from
California o
on 12 March and was debriefed on 13 and 14 March
1961. The debriefing was held in Subject's room at the Statler
Hotel and was tape recorded. Those participating in this
debriefing were Messrs. Faul Paxton and Brendon Burns of WHD
and the undersigned. Tichborn (P) related the contacts be
had made, their impressions of the local political scene, his
own assessment of the situation, personal comments on the
economy and government obtained from "slumming" among the
local lower classes, etc. Tichborn (P) also pointed out areas
in which we could make a positive contribution and gave a
number of over-all recommendations concerning the political
and economic fields.
2. The WHD representatives were very favorably impressed
with Tichborn (P) personally and with his activities while in
El Salvador on the related TDY mission.
3. The American Ambassador to El Salvador had met Tichborn (P)
while there and was sufficiently impressed with him that he sent
a telegram to Mr. Thomas Mann of the Department suggesting that the
28/2532=3
14-00000*
latter might find it very profitable to contact Tichborn (P)
and discuss the Salvadoran situation with him (see SALV 3630,
IN 16568, dated 10 March 61). As a result, Tichborn (P) was
apprised upon his arrival that if he did meet with Mr. Mann
that he should not conceal the fact that he had gone to El
Salvador on behalf of CIA. (In the meantime, Mr. Mann was
being informed of this relationship by WHD in order to avoid
any possible embarassing situations.) Tichborn (P) was
anxious to talk with Mr. Mann and Mr. Paxton was attempting
to set up an appointment with him. However, Mr. Mann was
occupied on other matters and Mr. Paxton therefore suggested
to Mr. Devine that he might meet with Tichborn (P). A
meeting was suggested by Mr. Devine for 2:30 Thursday the
16th, but Tichborn (P) stated that since he had an appointment
at the White House at 3 pm that it would not be possible.
Mr. Paxton asked Tichborn (P) to call Mr. Devine on this and
that maybe they could work out another time. No more was
heard from Tichborn (P) by Mr. Paxton or by CA/PAG. We had,
however, talked with Tichborn (P) Wednesday morning when he
called for Mr. Paxton's number and I asked him if we could be of
any more assistance and he replied in the negative.
4. Administratively, Tichborn's (P) salary ($1,000) was
paid him in cash as he requested on 14 March. Expense money
for his transportation to, and his stay in, El Salvador were
advanced to him by the Station and the related accounting was
taken care of there. The only funds which are now due Tichborn (P):
are his expenses while in Washington for the debriefing.
stated that he would forward his hotel bill, airplane tickets,
and other receipts upon his return to California. He was
cautioned to mail the true name receipts (plane tickets, hotel
bills, etc.) in one envelope and his accounting sheet, signed
in pseudonym, in a separate one.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT:
Plane for Debriefing of Edward G. Tichborn (P).
in Washington
1.
On 6 March Edward G. Tichborn (P) telephoned C/PAG to
inform him that he had returned from his TDY assignment to El
him 
that
Salvador. He felt that his trip has been a successful one and
that he would have a meaty report to submit. He also suggested
that he felt it would be useful if he were debriefed by the
interested parties at Headquarters.
2. C/PAG and I agreed that this would be the most useful
manner for obtaining all of the details of his activities while
in El Salvador, as well as providing an opportunity for WH
officers to pose any questions they might have. Consequently
I contacted Messrs. Holman and Marshall of WHD and suggested
that Tichborn (P) came to Washington on Sunday, 12 March and
be debriefed on 13 and 14 March. They agreed this would be
an excellent idea.
3. Mr. Marshall wanted to check on the financial aspect
of Tichborn's (P) trip East. He asked if he would receive an
additional salary for that time period. I suggested (as C/PAG
had discussed with me) that we would recommend to Tichbora (P)
that this debriefing be included in the salary he was informed
he would receive for this assignment. (This figure would be
$500 per week, or $1,000 for two weeks.) Expenses covering this
projected trip to Washington would, however, be separate. I
also mentioned to Mr. Bolman that this would be suggested to
Tichborn and that I felt he would be amenable since this would
bring the total time he was on assignment for WH to two weeks.
Mr. Holman agreed that I should call Tichborn (P) and ask him

salary as best I could

he said he under-

that he had informed C/PAG that he could
not be away from the U.S. 
for more than a ten-day period at
one time, but that he could 
then come on to Washington at
a later date. (He left 
for El Salvador on 22 February and
returned to the U.S. 
on 5 March).

him I would meet him there and bring some "friends" along.
(On this subject, Mr. 
Holman said he felt Mr. Herbert, DC
/WHD,
might want to attend the 
debriefing.)
5. During the time that Tichborn (P) is in Washington,
he will also sign the amendment 
to his contact and the out-
standing financial matters 
will be taken care of.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: IDY Assignment of Edward G. Tichborn (P) to El Salvador
REFERENCES: A. Nemorandum for the Record, 18 January 1961
B. Memorandum for the Record, 23 January 1961
1. In early January we had suggested to WH/Salvador that
they might find the services of a political consultant of value
in their area. The Division checked this out with the Station
who agreed that it was an idea worth looking into and asked for
additional details. This information was forwarded to the field
and in reply, the Station requested that we send the individual
concerned to El Salvador to assess the political situation and
to give them any related assistance possible.

2. As a consequence, Mr. Davis contacted Edward 0. Tichborn (P)
by telephone and told him of our interest. Due to the Station's
request which we wanted to fill promptly, and also to Tichborn's (P)
the possibility that he might receive an
appointment within the Administration in the near future) we
wanted to get him to Salvador as soon as possible. After con-
sultation with Tichborn (P) and with the Desk, it was decided that
he would leave California on 23 February and arrive in Salvador
the following morning.
3. In his telephone conversation, Mr. Davis was forced to
rely on the system of "double talking" for the purpose of security;
however, the possibility that his services might be required had

already been mentioned to Tichborn (P) when he was in Washington
on personal matters in January (see Ref. B). Mr. Davis also
attempted to "second guess" Tichborn's (P) feelings on this
assignment when arranging the details with WHD. The fact that
he might receive an appointment was the major factor under
consideration, especially in the sense that first, we did not
want to expose Tichborn (P) as a KUBARK agent and secondly,
we did not want in any way to present Tichborn (P) with any
problems in relation to his possible appointment.
Mr. Davis told Tichborn (P) in guarded language which
was apparently well understood by him that the COS ("our seni
partner") and the Ambassador ("the senior partner of our cousin
of our
firm) would be witting as to his KUBARK connections and that
undoubtedly JUEGGPLANT (an American cut-out and contact of the
Station) and the latter's brother-in-law JUVAN-1 (a Salvadoran
businessman and Station contact with whom he would be
would also be witting. However, as agreed with WH, the locals
other than JUVAN-1 would be unwitting as to his KUBARK connections.
Tichborn (P) was informed that he would be "visiting" Salvador
and his "old friend" JUEGGPLANT and this cover story was to
be cited to the local Salvadorans.
e working)
we
Mr. Davis especially pointed out to Tichborn (F)
that since WH felt he should talk with the Ambassador,
wanted him to be aware of this in the event that this possibility.
arose at the Station's request. Mr. Davis added that of course
we would not want the Ambassador to take umbrage, etc. at
Tichborn's (P) visit or activities and that we had been assured
by someone (Paul Paxton) who knows Ambassador Murat Williams,
that the latter could be counted upon for his cooperation and
discretion. Tichborn (P) then asked specifically whether he
would definitely talk with the Ambassador and Mr. Davis informed
him that this would depend upon the Station's judgment. (WH
had informed us that this was a possibility since Williams is
new to his post and the Station is trying to work closely with
him from the beginning; WH felt that if Williams later learned
that Tichborn (P) had been in the area without his knowledge,
he might take offense.) In this event, the Station was advised
to request the Ambassador to use our channels for any communications
to the Department concerning Tichborn (P).
6. WH had also told us that they might have to inform
the Department of Tichborn's (P) trip to El Salvador and
then decided that this would not be necessary. However, on
23 February, a final decision was made that this would have
to be done and since C/WH works so closely with State. PAG
did agree to this but requested that this information be in
general terms only and that Tichborn's (P) name not be given.
WH agreed that it could be done in this way. WH also stated
that this information will be passed to Mr. Devine and would
be limited to him and Mr. Mann..
7. Tichborn's (P) instructions were that he would be
met at the airport if possible by JUEGGPLANT (whose true
name and description were provided); if he did not appear,
Tichborn (P) was to go to the Intercontinental Hotel and
wait there to be contacted by either JUEGGPLANT (Jerry
Caughlin) or the COS, Ben Stotts. Upon meeting Tichborn (P)
JUEGGPLANT, as a recognition signal, would say "I am a friend
of Horace
8. Tichborn (P) asked if some expense money could be
provided him in El Salvador and he was assured that this
would be arranged. Since time (and the airlines strike)
did not permit his coming to Washington for a detailed brief-
ing on the political situation in Salvador and on his specific
mission, these matters plus the funds for expenses will be
handled by the Station.
9. Two cables were sent to the field concerning the
subject of Tichborn's (P) arrival in El Salvador (DIR 26346,
OUT 76088 and DIR 26522, OUT 76527). These cables spelled out
Tichborn's (P) cover, the need for special discretion on the
part of these individuals who are witting of his relationship
with KUBARK, the meeting or contact arrangements, the fact that
detailed briefings by the Station would be necessary since it
had not been possible to undertake this at Headquarters, his
pseudonym and approval for the Station's providing him with
certain funds.
10.
In summary, PAG's interest was to arrange for Tichborn's (P)
arrival in Salvador as soon as possible and at the same time to
0000
protect his KUBARK status and assure that this present mission
with his possible appointment
would not in any way interfere
to a post in the Administration.

I'm sorry that this is a somewhat bothersome procedure. However,

Hope all goes well

9 February 1960
1.
On 1 February Edward G. Tichborn advised me that in lifting
his bag out of a taxi on his return trip from Cuba, he suddenly felt
a pain in the groin and was afraid that he had a hernia.

he asked me if there would be any
chance of the Government

that he actually had a hernia which required any substantial treatment

position would be, but that I would check into the matter and let him.
know.

3. On 2 February, I contacted Mr. Vernon Turner, SSA/DDS, and
explained the circumstances to him. At that time, I also pointed out
that as far as the provisions of his contract were concerned, it was
stated that he was not an employee of the U. S. Government and while
it did not make specific reference to medical payments while he was
working for us, it did not specifically preclude such payments.
Mr. Turner opined that although the contract stated he was not an
employee of the U. S. Government, in actual fact during the period he
was doing our bidding, he was. I went on further to explain to
Mr. Turner that in all probability we will call on Tichborn to do
future services for us and that while he was being paid, it was doubt-
ful that this reimbursement from us equaled what he would make in
his regular law practice. Mr. Turner stated that there were a number
of ways that we could alleviate his situation should it become
necessary.

4. The conclusion reached between me and Mr. Turner was that
I should point out to Tichborn that we were under no obligation to
recompense him for his injury; however, that upon the completion of
treatment if he would submit a claim, we should be glad to review
it sympathetically.
5. I passed the gist of the above on to Tichborn on 3 February.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Edward G. Tichborn (P)
25 September 1959
On the morning of 14 September I called Tichborn and arranged
to meet him at his office at 1230. As an attachment to this memo
I have outlined the standard approach which was followed in Tichborn's
instance; therefore, I will not go further into it.
2. Tichborn struck me as being extremely quick, intelligent, very
sympathetic to my suggestions and anxious to cooperate. He is of
Mexican descent, speaks Nexican/Spanish fluently and according to him
can easily pass as a Mexican. Tichborn has spent considerable time
over the years in Mexico as well as attending the University of
Mexico for a year or two. He has also traveled to Cuba and is a
- friend of John Manson, head of Screen Gem, Inc. which is the Columbia
Pictures outlet for Mexico. Mr. Manson is personally known to me and
might, at sometime, be of use to us. I shall not delve into Tichborn's
political history as that will be outlined in his PRQ, Part I when
it arrives. He is presently being urged to run for Congress from
the Los Angeles district; however, he has not as yet made up his
mind what he will do.
3. In the period of three hours that I was with Tichborn, I
was extremely impressed by him and feel sure that he would do an
excellent job of briefing any individuals that we might desire him
to brief. I am also sure that if he was sent out on a TDY he would
acquit himself in superior fashion. Tichborn is called upon from
time to time to give advice on the handling of Mexican/American
problems an
and 
show the great appreciation of the difficulties of
dealing with Latin Americans, their great sense of political morality,
their inferiority complex and of their unfounds but nevertheless anti-
gringo feelings. Tichborn was particularly interested in the situation
in Cuba and asked my opinion of it. My comment in essence was that
201253203
Co
it seemed pretty obvious that Castro was extremely emotional and
tended towards being a demiged who had won the war but was losing
the peace. Tichborn concurred in this opinion, adding to it that
he felt that Castro was not cognizance of the dangers of Communism.
Tichborn knows me as Mr. Darkin. Should there be need for
his services, I am sure he will do his best to accommodate us.
Attachment as stated.

SUBJECT
Utilization of Harpers for Nominal Cover
1. This memorandum contains a recommendation for your
approval in paragraph six.
Santo Domingo Station has requested that Edward G.
TICHBORN, an American Contract Agent of Mexican extraction
who is presently assigned to Mexico Station, be temporarily
assigned to the Dominican
assist Santo Domingo
in the period immediately
the 1 June presidential
election. Mexico Station and TICHBORN have
assignment and it is proposed that
Domingo in the immediate future to HBORN reed to this.
to Santo
on the operations
and then return to Santo Domingo on approximately 1 May to
carry out whatever operational duties Santo Domingo Station
may assign him. It is presumed that he would return to
Mexico City shortly after 1 June 1966.
3. TICHBORN, 46, is bilingual and has a wide range of
business and social contacts throughout Latin America.
Following graduation from Harvard Law School in 1948, TICHBORN
a la corpo
firm 
in Los Angeles which repre-
became affiliated erican corporations with California
sented many Latin
business connections. In the mid-1950's he became active in
California state politics and served in various capacities in
Democratic Party state and national organizations. He par-
ticipated actively in the California gubernatorial campaign
of James Roosevelt, the senatorial campaign of Helen Gahagan
Douglas and both the 19556 Stevenson campaigns for
President. He has been
of the Southern California
Young Democrats, a member of the California Democratic State
Central Committee, a member of the Host Committee for the
1956 Democratic National Convention and a member of the Board
of Directors of the National Democratic Minority. Conference.
In 1960 he served as Los Angeles coordinator of the Kennedy
Movement for Americans of Mexican Extraction which, it is
reported, contributed substantially to the success of the
Kennedy campaign in Southern California. His only try for
elective office was in 1958 when he was defeated in his bid
for the position of California Secretary of State.

In late 1959, TICHBORN was hired by the Agency as
a political action advisor for Agency-sponsored election
operations throughout Latin America. In 1961 he became
full-time contract agent and was assigned to Mexico City,
under personal cover, to establish a degree of security
and mobility which would permit him to travel readily on
third country political action assignments. Since the
beginning of his relationship with the Agency, he has par-
ticipated in Agency sponsored operations in Cuba, El
Salvador, Guatemala, Argentina, the Dominican Republic and,
most recently, in the 1964 election in Chile. At present,
he is engaged full-time in managing a Mexico Station funded
left wing Publication, Dialogos. His cover in
Mexico now is
and he attributes his presence and
interests
for his ly to his activities in the legal field
Los Angeles law firm employer. He devotes
most of his time to his position as editor of Dialogos.
5.
TICHBORN has contributed stories, articles and
interviews to United States and Latin American publications.
His major interment in this field has been the publi-
cation of an
with Catherine Anne Porter in a
recent issue of Harpers magazine. TICHBORN suggests that
he might be able to arrange viable cover for his temporary
assignment in the Dominican Republic by writing to Harpers
and querying their interest in his preparation of an article
concerning the Dominican Republic political situation and
the forthcoming election. There is no reason to believe that
Harpers would turn down such a proposal and, in fact, it is
believed they would welcome it.
6. Recommendation. The Western Hemisphere Division
recommends that approval be given for TICHBORN's approach
to Harpers to advise them of his planned trip to the Dominican
Republic and request of the magazine an expression of interest
in an article on the present situation in the Dominican
Republic. This will be done specifically as a cover for his
travel to Santo Domingo. In the event Harpers should commis-
sion him to do such an article, TICHBORN will present his
manuscript for Agency approval prior to forwarding it to

Harpers. In the event that WH Division or Santo Domingo
Station should wish to utilize such a TICHBORN-prepared
article to surface a specific theme of interest to the
Agency, a request for approval of such action will be referred
to your office prior to taking any action.

Cover
:
Investigation of suitable cover for utilization of Lopez
as a political action agent was successful in that
DODS indicated an interest in Lopez' background (Economics
and Law) as a possible Latin American specialist for
the International Capital Corporation (ICAP). ICAP is
an Agency proprietary corporation, which was established
by John P. C. Train, a contract employee of the Agency,
who owns and manages the Park Avenue firm of Train,

the operations of ICAP into Latin America and was
looking about for a Latin American specialist at just
the time that WH Division offered Lopez. It appears
to be a fortuitous meeting of the minds, i.e., Lopez
apparently has many of the attributes and some of the
background necessary for the position and Train needs
man. He will be trained by Train and presumably
will devote a good deal of his time to ICAP activities.
However he will be made available on short notice
for any assignment the Agency may have for him.
What is extent of the possible utilization of
Lopez over the period of the next year and in the
future? ( I Have Some Maue work is eas)
Based upon the above, what would be an equitable
contract arrangement, 1.e., how much money is Lopez
worth to WH Division when most of his time will
be spent working for ICAP and DODS? DODS in-
dicates that after he begins to make a contribu-
tion to ICAP (Probably six months to a year) they
would be willing to pick up a portion of the con-
tract costs but they see no justification for such
an action at present. I THINK T. WILL

ICAP Corporation is an in-

consulting 
and
financial organization, spe
cializing in the developing
countries, which offers three
principal services to its
clients:
Financial and industrial studies, particularly
feasibility reports and market research.
Negotiation of international joint ventures
Investments and financing
ICAP's professional services are primarily intended
for the industrial investor or financial institution
interested in catering a foreign country. If the initial
feasibility and market studies are favorable, ICAP
can advise on the most appropriate way of entering
the new market: whether through a licensing or dis-
tribution agreement, contract manufacturing, a joint
venture, or a partially or wholly owned subsidiary.
The local ICAP affiliate can guide the investor
through the entire course of such an undertaking.
from the initial exploration of the prospects to the
selection of the local partner, the raising of local
capital, and, if appropriate, the eventual listing of
the shares of the resulting enterprise on the local
stock exchange.
ICAP is as concerned with enabling a client com
pany to recognize as early as possible the fact that
it should not undertake a major commitment in a
foreign country as it is with giving effective assis
tance to companies who determine to go forward.
It brings to these tasks a full range of professional
skills which have performed to the standards of
governments, major banks, and industrial companies
of international standing.
It brings to the service of its clients close relation-
ahips on all levels of local government, banking and
industry. Thus, in addition to analyzing such ques-
tions as product demand, industrial technology.
financing, site selection and the like, ICAP can
counsel the prospective investor on the govern
mental attitudes he will face, and belp him make
friendly contact with those in the business and
official communities with whom he should deal.

INTERVIEW TECHNIQUES, COVER
At the first meeting and the one the next day before I made the
main trip, my principal local political contact presented a possible
cost of operations in the coming election. I asked him if it were a
realistic 
figure and whether his analysis were realistic. He admitted
that it really wasn't and I told him to go back and sharpen his pencil
and sit down 
and talk sense. It was therefore agreed that when I came
back 
from y trip we would sit down and go over it district by district,
and problem by 
problem. He and his political cohort tried to lay out an
itinerary for me and they recommended the people I would see in each town.
Our boy 
there dutifully wrote down all these names for me and then we
very dutifully threw the list away it was all over and we started
making up our own list. Some of the
eople
you gave me I included in
the list and saw. Also, our boy had a number of people. We both agreed
that 
this trip would have to be played by ear, since after you arrive

you are doing. The only strategy that
we really agreed on was that I would take a plane and fly from the
south 
up.
you
I did exactly that. I flew over to the south and then went on,
smelling around. I used three methods: (1) street interview, shop
interview and in other words, people of no significance, (2) the
Rotary Club 
routine and (3) talks with lawyers.
Using the first method, I would go into a little shop and would
inquire about how much an article would cost. If the shop keeper could
speak English we then got 
into a conversation, and then I would make
a purchase. he couldn't speak English, then I would go to anothar
shop where the he
could. I bought 
all sorts of odds and ends - a pencil,
a little notebook, a pair of slippers. I bought a pair of sandals
which I didn't 
wear because I took the advice of the people and remained
American all the 
way. I wore shoes, socks, shirt and so forth. W
Whenever
a great number of people were attracted to us, I considered this a good
opportunity for an 
interview. As you know, you talk to one native and
there 
are five standing around you — they will surround you. If they
speak your language 
they will participate. They won't interrupt when
someone else is talking, but when he is finished each one will get into
the act; this is wonderful.
And then I did the Rotary Club routine; there are Rotary Clubs all
over 
the 
dammed place. I was taken to one meeting which happened to be
taking 
place in a town where I was. In the hotel where I was staying they
had the Rotary 
International. I looked it over very carefully to make sure

my trip, my interest in the 
local
national situation, and then start asking 
questions which I already knew
the answers to. For example, "how 
do you discipline a lawyer, who gets 
off

of appeal, high court and
how the judges are appointed. I had

times.
And every time they would explain their 
system to me, I would tell them
how it is done in our country. I was actually 
giving them a lecture on
American jurisprudence. I was 
surprised to hear those lawyers tell me
with great pride how able, honest and 
fair their judges are, because I
had discovered that officialdom there is as

a few years ago and I was a little emotionally upset (which is
and wasn't hard to say) and that I was told that one possible cure
was to get away on a long trip and my son insisted that I take this trip.
It is interesting at first since you see so many museums, rooms and art
galleries, but 
it gets boring and
and 
I was getting sick and tired of things
and was about ready to go home, when I ran into a situation that really
interests 
me politics. Here is something that is after your own
heart, this 
local situation. I becere Goddamned curious. Here was the
opportunity to tour this country and to put my trip on a profit basis by
preparing articles on what has happened there, what might happen in the
future and 
so forth. I made it logical enough. At first I trimmed it
pretty 
well with a lot of stuff about how I love these people (and that is
true too
). My experience
ce 
with them has been pretty much limited to students.
My experience with them has always been wonderful and I love them. They
were 
fine young men and women, I still find them to be interesting young
men and
women and that I have a natural affinity for them. They liked
that. I said also that I had a sympathy for their
men, their problems and
their traditions.
In my contacts throughout the area I maintained the same story. I
was 
lucky to hit on the right 
formula in the beginning and found that it
worked. 
With very few variations, I stuck to the main theme.
Very often I would fall into a good interview. For example, I was
looking 
for 
a small businessman with a factory. I asked a man where to
find him and 
was led to a lawyer's office. This was a very fortunate
mistake
; a couple of times they turned out to my advantage. This lawyer
turned out 
to be a fella who was very well informed and who had previously
been in polities
. He was also close to the Roman Catholic hierarchy. And
he gave me an interview which 
summarized the informed
run into in that area. (He also took me to the university and introduced
me to the priest 
who was the head of the sch
school.

apply for collect and for a scholarship. I said that I wasn't an official
and didn't know the answers
, or pretend to, but I created the impression
that 
there was a possibility of applying for scholarships to the schools,
or even to 
the U. 5. Government. (I actually do intend to find out about
these things and 
follow it through since they were very helpful to me and
I am very 
grateful.) There was some truth to what I said to them and I
wasn't making up stories out of whole cloth. There was a basis fær
everything I said to them although there might have been some exaggeration.
However, in the main, I could tell the story with great consistency for

used this young fellow which was sometimes satisfactory.
But you see,
sometimes the villager or the shopkeeper could speak English,
or some kid could and would translate and they were much more faithful to
the meaning. The driver got to thinking that he knew what answers I wanted
and that ruined his usefulness. I kept t saying that I wanted to know what
they were saying, not what I would like to have them say; that how can I
write a good story if I don't know the truth. He got to the point where he
was trying to figure out what I was after and was going to give me the
right answers. Hence I banded him right in the beginning. But I ran
into some kids about 13 or 14 years old and used them as interproters;
they were good. I saw at least a dozen or more of the newspaper publishers
and correspondents, two of the editors of two different Communist newspapers,
and I talked with four or five of
of 
the Communist leaders. I also talked

(mayor) in about half a dozen towns. I also talked with a local official
and to some other old-timers who are not active n now, but will be in the
campaign. I feel that as a result of my survey I can give a fairly
authoritative opinion on what the situation is, why and what the future is.
I am confident that my reactions are sound and that my conclusions vill
be accurate.
Questions Did you
etc. in the airport? answers. Only by controls; anyone asking your name,
in the hotels, or when I entered and
left the country. At the hotels you make a full police report. When the
others whom I engaged in conversation (and told them what I was trying to
learn) asked where I was going next, I would ask them what they suggested
how far it is, what was a good hotel, etc. I would trick them into it.
Thus I tried to be a little naive. I was only concerned once.
Question: Did you ever talk voluntarily or involuntarily to anyone who
you know to be a policeman? Answer: I talked voluntarily to uniformeu
cops and asked questions and directions. I chose my questions with great
care. Although it looked very informal, I had it pretty well planned. Since
each question suggested another, it formed a pattern and was very logical.
I was a very happy person and found a lot of things to laugh about and a lot
of things to praise (this is one thing that I had suggested). Keeping in
mind that I was a tourist, I went out of my way to find and see things
and I went to many places which I felt were ridiculous. (Subject talks
here about personal experiences in hotels, plumbing, ate.)

Questions Did you know that you were an object of undue suspicion? Answer:
I presumed that I 
was
. 
I was an unusual stranger since tourism is not a
usual thing in that part of the country. Hence I set about to remove any
suspicion. I acted very 
much American, being all over the place and being
curious; but I 
gave purpose to my curiosity and explained it in each place.
verywhere I 
engaged people in conversation and gathered other people,
explaining 
my 
purpose, interests and why I had such interests. I think
that 
in each instance I logically explained my presence and worked into the
questions that I asked. 
I think the idea of going to the Commists
accomplished 
my purpose. I was not a subject of interest to the newspapers,
which I might well have 
been had they had suspicions. I worked out in the
open. In dining 
rooms I would find some excuse to say "do you speak English?"
and usually someone 
did. "Could you explain something to ma - how is this
prepared? We don't 
have it in the U. S., etc." Pretty soon we were sitting
together, ordering a 
drink and invariably the owner of the hotel would come
and sit with us and 
tell me he would write a note to a particular newspaper
editor, etc. As a 
result, I found that about half of the time I was
directed to people. 
I never felt that I was suspect, except by Americans,
and I think they thought 
that I was checking up on them since they tried
to avoid me.
Question: Did you ever find, or have the feeling, that you ware
followed 
from the airport, 
sto.? Answers I had that feeling once, but
I wasn't being followed
. For example, I had the feeling that I had seen
the sama man in several 
places, but dismissed it because I didn't see him
again. Also, so many 
of those people look alike, that I may have been
confused In the airports I 
engaged people in conversation, always playing
the role of the curious 
American, but primarily one who is happy with their
country.

Operational Activities:
1. Subject went to Cuba at the suggestion of CA Staff and with
the 
concurrence of WHD and 
the Cuba Station early 1960 (15 Mnuary-
31 January). The primary 
purpose of Subject's mission to Cuba was to
obtain an objective view 
of the political situation within that country
and to contact and 
size-up the existing opposition to Castro.

innumerable contacts with leading opposition figures

and others, 
primarily through his own ingenuity. As a result he

obtained a good deal of useful information on these persons, their
philosophies
, plans, etc. as well as information of a derogatory
nature on Fidel 
Castro (which was later exploited in the
field).
propaganda
Subject also provided several operational leads and suggestions
upon his return from Cuba. During this assignment, Subject traveled
as a tourist, but 
at the same time, in order to give him added stature
for conversations
, stated that he represented American businessmen and
investors who 
were anxious to assess legal recourses re revolutionary
laws and to determine 
the possibilities for future development and
investments. 
WH was very impressed with Subject's ability and
operational 
maneuverability.
2. From 23 February March 1961
2. From 23 February-3 March 1961 Subject was in El Salvador
again at the suggestion of CA Staff and with the approval of WHD and
the Station
. Again, Subject's mission was to provide an over-all
estimate 
of the fluid political situation. While in that area, he made
numerous 
political and social contacts of operational interest and
subsequently 
made a number of operational suggestions during his
debriefing 
at Headquarters. Subject's cover for this mission was
tourist 
travel. Headquarters, the Station and the U.S. Ambassador in
El Salvador were 
all extremely impressed by Subject's ability to assess
the local political 
situation and to make the necessary contacts with
a minimum of 
Station assistance. (Detailed reports on both
missions 
are available in CA/PAG files.)
Current Status and Future Operational Potential:
these
Subject brought his family from California to Washington, D.C.
where 
he is 
expecting to receive a political appointment probably in the
field of Latin American 
affairs. He has suggested that if possible he
would like to be 
operationally active for KUBARK at the same time.
Since 
he will undoubtedly be assigned to Latin America (possibly Mexico),
and will have some 
freedom of action, he feels he could perform worth-
while clandestine services 
throughout the Latin American area. We
agree. CA/PAG is, therefore, arranging meetings for Subject with WHD
and IOD, 
both of whom have expressed an interest in this possibility.
(More details 
will be forthcoming on this.)
