Report lio. 314
5 May 1970
PRANCO enters the office. They mention the incident that
happened last night at Barajas airport when the plane arrived
from Havana. ☐ A 
woman (Spanish) raised her umbrella and
threatened 1HORACIO, while a gusano kept hitting him. FRANCO
says that 
he hit five or six of the attackers. real hard, and
that 
he thinks he really hurt one of them quite badly around
the 
face and head. Everyone was covered with blood.
:
A woman and a man come into the office and talk about the
incident (above) also. Then the girl says that she has come
to Spain 
to take a course in Alcala. It seems that the course
is connected 
with UNESCO. She will later go to the University
of Santander and 
on to Paris to take a course there.
She says
she is a member of the Party, and wants to know how she is
going to maintain he ontact here in Spain.
they too are members,
RUIZ says that
at that due to the difficulty of public
relations that it is a month and a half since they have had.
a group meeting. He says that the work that they are doing
makes 
it difficult to carry on the Party life, but that never-
theless it 
is necessary to have group meetings to discuss the
members. 
She says that she would like to live in Madrid,
in a 
student residence, and commute to Alcala by car, or
bus every 
day. Ruiz says that in this way it would be more
economical for 
her and she would have more contact with the
other students. She says that she would like to be in
some Spanish-American college to get acquainted with the students
there. RUIZ 
says she could be very useful to them with her
student 
connections, and that without interfering with her
studies she can also be helping Cuba. He highly recommends
that 
she get every thing she can, culturally, during her stay in
Spain. He says 
that for very much she has read about museums
and 
historical and artistic places it is quite different seeing
them.
Ruiz asks her to leave her address at the embassy so that the
President of the Women's Federation of the Party can take
advantage of her being of use to them in one way or another.
Ruiz tells her that anything that might happen to her to come
to the embassy and let them know about it. He says there is
the danger that they will spy on her or follow her and that
there is the possibility of enemies getting close to her.
He says that everyone makes mistakes and that if she does to
let them know at once so that they can prevent the consequence,
and give her good advice.
He has been out of the office for a long time. At about 2:30 pm
he comes in with 
BARREDA and another person. Ruiz says that
he has to write to the Deputy Secretary(of Foreign Relations-?)
about the 
incident at Farajas airport. He is going to point out
the permissiveness of the police. He is going to point out
that the officials of the embassy were provoked by the others

The following information about Subject's trip to
Spain and her activities while here was obtained from QUI INID
and QUDOZEX.
.2. Subject arrived in Madrid on 10 February 1970. She
traveled to Barcelona during the week of 23 February and
returned to Madrid 6 March whereupon she then left for Portugal.
She returned to Madrid on 17 March and waited for Guillermo
RUIZ. Perez' return from the Spanish/Cuban Commercial nego-
tiations in Cuba. Sonia departed Madrid for Cuba on 27 March 1970
It appears that she intended to travel to Vienna, Austria, next,
since several cables were sent to Vienna from Madrid advising
Sonia's travel status.. During her stay in Spain, Sonia was in
frequent contact with one Jose Agustin GOY TISOLO
Spanish writer in Barcelona, telephone 228-4063 (Station traces
are OSBA 02385, 17 February 1965; OSBA 02718, 11 August 1967;
and OSBA 02795, 1 March 1968). She was not known to have been
in contact with any other locals and what little time she had
for diversion she spent with the mission officers and their
wives.

3. The purpose of Sonia's trip to Madrid was to discuss
the 1970 work pian for the Embassy with the Charge, Guillermo
RUIZ Perez. She also talked with the various Embassy officials,
most probably to familiarize herself with their duties and to
see if they had any problems. She pitched in and helped with
the backlogged work of Orestes BARREDA and Horacio
FUENTES and also helped with the cultural activities.
For instance, she sont two cables to MINREX - one regarding
the forwarding of movie posters for a March exhibit and another
regarding the forwarding of a Cuban stamp exhibition by end
March.
4. In their discussion of the 1970 work plan Sonia told
RUIZ 
that 
they were going to plan the February, March, and
April quarter. She showed him "an agenda for the control of
planned and unplanned activities" and the general directives of
the plan which included scientific information and political
information, with specific directives (requirements) for Spain.
RUIZ has to prepare for Havana a monthly report, then a quarterly
summary, of the activities accomplished. Based on these
reports the activities of the following quarter will be planned.
a. In line with the plan of scientific
information, Sonia and RUIZ discussed the pros
and cons of a Comite Cientifico-Tecnico which
is to be set up in Hadrid. RUIZ was of the
opinion that the local (Spanish) Communist
Party would try to infiltrate it and this
would bring problems to the Embassy. Sonia
pointed out the successes encountered in
Switzerland and Sweden with such a committee
even though at first there were problems
which were later overcome.
b. Sonia showed RUIZ a commercial project
which she planned to take to Portugal and
asked him to read it because it was also of
interest to the Cuban mission in Spain.
C. Sonia mentioned that the Plan of
Information was still to be completed especially
in the priority categories of livestock and
economy.
d. They turned next to the topic of
the budget. Sonia said that the budget
for each mission had to be submitted before
the end of April (every year) and no additional
expenditures could be submitted for approval
during the course of the year. Spain, Canada,
and France, however, would be treated individually.
Their special needs, such as acquisition of
more office space, raises in cost of living
allowances, etc., would be taken into consideration
at any time.

to provide a list of scholarship candidates to be considered

lost four scholarships because of this same reason.

married to one Miguel (LNU) and has a daughter named Iliana.
Sonia's mother is still living although appeared to be very
ill at the time Sonia left for her trip to Madrid because
Sonia cabled at least twice to Havana inquiring about the
* status of her mother's health. (TYLOTE reported that Sonia's
home phone number in Havana is 7-4263.) Perhaps Headquarters

Perhaps a relative's description of RUIZ
sums up his personality "a man of many
moods." He has variously been described
as intelligent, mentally alert, competent,
hardworking, and respected by his subordinates.
Pleasant, easy going, nervous, quick-tempered,
brusque but sincere, opinionated, strong-minded
idealistic, self-confident. Has basic.
emotional instability, gives impression
of being insecure in his position.. At times
sarcastic, indifferent, egotistical, cynical,
serious, ungrateful and cold, who,
paradoxically, appears friendly to some people.
Outspoken, compulsive talker, articulate,
limited vocabulary, swears a good deal.

EDUCATION:
He can turn on considerable
charm, where motivated. In
contrast to his pleasant public
image 
and acceptable language,
private conversation is vulgar,
swears continually and flies into

.
Likes good living and spends money
where it shows. 
Avid reader, keeps
abreast of 
world events, shows
willingness to accept whatever he
deems 
to be good or useful from
the outside 
world. Concerned with
the image and prestige of Cuba in
Spain. 
Emotionally committed to
an ideal. 
An AMEDIT study summed
RUIZ 
up as a realist. He speaks
English 
and French. His wife, a

to Spain, 
and there works as a

Ministry of the Treasury. In April
1962 he was Chief of the Department
of Construction Expenses Studies,
Office of Financial Statistics of
that ministry. He was with the
ministry as early as 1960, when he
was selected to attend the statistics
course.
During the Batista regime he was in
exile. Came to the U.S. sometime in
the 1950's and apparently remained for
some 
time before he left in February
1957, when, according to some reports,
he 
entered Cuba clandestinely. Also
reported to have been in exile in
Mexico.
LNYUMA records show he came to U.S.

ATTITUDE:
A member of the Cuban Communist
Party, admitted on the recommendation
of Armando, HART
Secretary
of Organization. Although he has
been described as a militant Communist,
a convinced supporter of the Castro
regime and a fanatic Fidelista, there'
is evidence to dispute this image.
An analysis of available information
indicates that he is not a convinced
Marxist, he cannot accept Party
discipline, and that his character
is basically incompatible with the
system he serves.
His father is reported to be an old-
guard Communist and a leader of
the barber's union. A brother
reported to be a member of DSE in 1946.
He expressed dissatisfaction with
his position as a diplomat, feels
his talents are wasted and would like
a position in commerce or industry,
where he considers he could better
serve the revolution. Has criticized
the bureaucracy and inefficiency in
the government in Havana.
He has said that many Cuban diplomats.

wanted to keep him (RUIZ) out of the
way (i.c., outside Cuba). That LEON

(RUIZ) does not like to work with a
man who one does not get to know,
nor to know what he is thinking. He
said he felt as if he were in Miami.

TRAVELS:
In May 1964 AMMUG-1 reported RUIZ
was a DGI case officer in Mexico for
operations targetted against "some"
nearby area," and later identified
his photograph as DGI member in Mexico.
In 1961 an emigre said RUIZ, with the
Finance Ministry, was a Communist and.
G-2.
ANTIKI-1 said a letter from a friend ..
in Cuba stated that RUIZ, then in
Mexico, was a member of G-2, sent to try
to infiltrate counterrevolutionary
groups (1963).
In April 1968, RUIZ advised Aristides
DIAZ Rovirosa on the use of disguises,
the need to "live secretly" and
commented on DIAZ' being "already
clandestine. "
The Cuban Ambassador to Geneva, in
1968, commented on RUIZ' refusal to
accept DGI dominance of the Cuban Embassy,
Madrid. (AMDELAY-1). In July 1969,
AMBEDEW-1 said RUIZ was very dictatorial
in his dealings with DGI officers.
Not much is known of his contacts in
Madrid, other than official. Is in
touch with Ahmed LAIDI, Algerian
Ambassador; Manuel TELLO Troncoso,
Counselor of Chilean Embassy, Madrid;
Alexandru PETRESCU, Romanian Minister to
Spain and Carlos CARRASCO Munoz de Vera,

ASSESSMENT:
Also claims to have been in North

It appears that RUIZ might well be responsive

timing and the person involved.

Interview with
Alexander SAMKC.
SANKO was contacted by phone (927-6721) on the nording of 21 April,
and he agreed to meet with "Joseph NORRIS, an official of the US
government," later the same morning at his home: 1647 Rodman Street,
Hollywood, Florida..
His

playing chess with a business associate. He lives in clean
middle class neighborhood and has a Lincoln Continental (about
3 or 4 years old) in the garage.
After speaking with him for over half an hour, SANKO does not
appear to know Crested Guillermo RUIZ Pera. SANKO Answered
questions in a straightforward manner and I have no reason to
doubt his testimony. Specifically, these are the facts as
SANKO related them:
C.
D.
The name Crestes Guillermo RUIZ Perez (it was typewritten on
a 3 x 5 card) means nothing to him. His business associate
-who has worked with him for many years and especially during
the 1950s- does not recall the name.
SANYO acknowledges that from c. mid 1953 till c. the end of
1959, he owned the "Pruit Center" -a grocery, meat market, and
fruit store- on 100 SW 17th Avenue, Hial (one block from
Flagler Street). He does not recall that anyone in his
employ answered to the name of Orbsbes Cuillermo RUIL Perez,
or any combination of these names. He never had anything but
an impersonal employer/employee relationship with his personnel.
The last time he had been to Cuba was in c. 1948, "when I went
down from New York." He denied several times that he had been.
to Cuba after Castro took power in 1959.
SARKO had bought the "Fruit Center" from a hr. PNU WOODS,
who also owned the property in the vicinity of 100 W 17th Avenue.
SANKO dismissed the personnel WOODS had in the store when
he bought. He does not know the whereabouts of WOODS at this
time, but presumes he still ows the property.
Naturally, SAMKO was curious to know why we were after ams.
sat fy his curiosity and perhaps elicit some admission, in the
event he was playing games with me, I disclosed these bits of

to Cuba and there are reports that SANKO had visited RUIZ

interested in talking to his old friends to see what kind
of a person RUIE was. We had reason to believe that SAMKO
was an old friend of RUIE'.
SAMKO listened intently. He seemed confused by all these reports.
He denied the allegations firmly, but without betraying any sign
of nervousness or doubletalk (as when one is telling less than
the truth.)
SANKO asked if we had a photo of RUÏT. He said he knew of no
other SAHKO in the Miami area, such as a brother, uncle, etc.
He did not appear to be bothered or inconvenienced by the
allegations, so if he was not telling the truth, he did a
wonderful job of it. The only thing he could suggest waS to
locate Mr HOODS -the owner before him of the "Fruit Center"-
to see if he a RUIZ as an employee.
In view of SAMKO's statements of denial, there was nothing more
to do than to thank him for his cooperation and say good morning.

Spanish and U.S. companies in Latin America. Aventu-
ally, we touched on Cuba, and Gervas said that Subject
considers himself to be an expert in this area as he
visited Cuba last year and had a private three-hour
interview with Fidel Castro. Gervas said that
Subject received a "snow job" from the jefe", and
this about sets the tone for his feelings for the

was not brought out. It seemed to me that Subject
is riding an emotional high for Cuba and Castro.
His face lit up and he became relatively excited
when telling us how Castro mixes and talks with
the common people," and is from Spanish parents,
and has done so much for the country. I asked him
what his general impression was of life there and
he replied phenomenal," and I believe he meant it.
He
C.
'Sone comments that Subject made would appoar
to be inspired by Cuban propaganda or a briefing.
Said that JKLANCE is in control of U.S. internal
security and is forcing a rightest swing in its in-
ternal politics. Also, all people going to Cuba
from Mexico are photographed by JKLANCE people, while
if you go from Spain you don't rum this risk.
I asked him if there was good potential for
Spanish companies doing business with Cuba. He replied
that Cuba is a bridge to Latin America. This seezed
a strange answer, and I pointed out that you didn't
have to go to Cuba to get to Latin America. He said,
'that's 
true, but other countries will change to the
Cuban syston and will need technicians to assist them.
Then we (Iguess he meant Spanish business mea doing
business with Cuba) will have excellent possibilities.
B.
"Subject said that he knew the Cuban Ambassador
to Spain and in fact visited him this morning and re-
ceived a large box of Havana cigars from him.
F. "Subject is about 30 years old, good looking
and makes an excellent first impression. He appears
to have a good business background in addition to being
a trained lawyer. He seems aggressive, determined and
has a good imagination for business ventures.
G. "It would be premature to say that Subject leans
toward Communism or has been had by the Cuban I.S. I
doubt that he would have talked so freely about his
admiration for Cuba if he is working covertly for them.
It is quite certain that he is being used by the Cuban
Embassy for commercial purposes, and I would estimate
that he would make an excellent "front man" for Cuban
business ventures.
H "I would recommend against trying to recruit
Subject as a means of getting to the Cuban Ambassador.
He would probably turn down the pitch and inform the
Cuban Embassy."
2. The above report is an excellent beginning in cur assess-
Dent of Subject and HARRIOTT must be commended for his adeptnosa
at steering 
the conversation toward the relevant areas of interest.
We 
think the report stands alone and requires little commentary by
the Station
; however, we might add here that there is a strong
probability that Subject was indeed snowed under by the impact of
his 
alleged three-hourstalk with Castro. Given Castro's charisma
and 
persuasive qualities it would not be difficult to "convince"
a young lawyer, allen to the Cuban environment, of the progress in
Cuba. Not 
withstanding HARRIOTT's fine report we feel that Subject
is still wallowing in 
the ebullience of this confrontation with
Fidel 
Castro. His short relationship with the Cuban Fabassy and
one visit 
to Cuba would hardly make him an authority on Cuba.

An assessment of Subject. For days we have been trying to doviso
a cover story 
for a Station officer to use in an approach to Subject.
We have one and 
would like your comments, suggestions and ideas. A
Station 
officer, preferably in disguise and using an alias, would
approach Subject 
as a free lance writer for "World Nows" (a
suggestion made by DCAMERA-1 because there are so many stringers
for World 
News" that it would be virtually impossible to confirm)
with the 
intention that he is writing an articlo on Spanish lawyers
in business with the theme 
that a degree in law offers greater
opportunities for advancement in business and government. (The
them 
actually is taken from an article in Fortune or Business Week
magazine read 
by the undersigned some years ago). The theme was
tested on UCAMERA-1 and he 
agrees that it is a good one and would
work because of 
the general nature of Spanish businessmen to like
to talk about 
themselves. What is involved however, is a consider-
able 
amount of homework, narticularly in the collection of names of
lawyers in 
business who have been successful. SUCAMERA-1 is pre-
paring a 
list of such people and we will review them together. The
undersigned 
subsequently will ask for Dun and Bradstreet reports on
the firms 
these lawyers represent as well as review the firms'
financial history in our reference aids located in the Embassy's.
commercial 
library.
The theme opens the door to a number of provoking questions,
but it particularly offers a good opportunity to assess the person-
ality of the target
. Porhaps the opportunity will again come when.
Subject discusses his 
relationship and knowledge of Cuba at which
time an interesting 
exchange might ensue possibly provoking Subject
to reveal his true 
relationship with the Cubans and/or his affection
for the Cuban 
system. No pitch would be made and, if after this
assessment, the officer 
arrives at HARRIOTT's conclusion, tho
Station 
would recommend against using Subject as an intermediary
to AMAUTO-1.

Report No. 2533.
14 April 1970.
Mr. JAVIER, from the Casa Conde of Vigo, calls HORACIO
to say that they have had in Vigo for two months the
ship VIA JAIBA (ph) for repairs and the captain has
decided that it is best if the crew takes its month
of vacation now and return later to the ship in Vigo.
Jadds the captain has to return to Cubá on Friday by
CUBANA, but he has no visa and authorization must be
requested from the General Department of Security. HORACIO
takes down the captain's name: Eugenio LEOPOLDO PORTAL
y PEÑA, Passport No. 038-534, issued 12 September 1969,
Havana.
:
Nilda RUIZ calls Alicia FRANCO to instruct her that should
someone go by claiming to be a relative of hers to say she
has no cousins or relatives of any sort. AF tells her
that person went by the Consulate the day before claiming
to be her cousin and saying he was a Spaniard. NR contends
she cannot imagine where he got that notion because she
has no cousins, adding that her cousins are Catalonians
and not from Gijón. AF says the man who came to the
Consulate saying to be her cousin resembles NR, and describes
him as having blue eyes, sort of blond, and tall. She then
says it is an older married couple. According to NR, all
her family comes from Catalonia. AF repeats this is an older
married couple and their problems cannot be solved by the
Consulate, rather they must be resolved there (in Cuba?),

Report No. 2536.
Raul GONZALEZ Romero calls ALDO (ph) to ask if VILLA ROYA
is there, for he wants to talk with him. He is. ALDO
ask the architect comrade how are things going regarding
the lots. GR says everything they have seen has been
interesting and it is good experience for they can compare
and select. He adds that 80 far the lot on Pasco de
'
la Habana is the best and this is precisely what he wants
to tell José Miguel VILLA ROYA.
GONZALEZ ROMERO (to VILLA ROYA):
After having seen what
we have seen until now and after having checked
everything yesterday afternoon--with this man
next door--the possibility of resolving at this
time the question of the frontón [pediment],
we think that the best. lot we have seen, and
the truth is that we should not let any more
time go by because we might lose it, is the one:

ARCACTUS-1 and ANGACTURES. In an effort to make operation
ANCACTUS as broad and flexible on operationally possible,
the Station has commented on the use of the AHCACTUS devices
in parallel operations. (See CBA 20105, 6 April 1970.)
11. The PERUMEN Government has approved the construction
of a new official installation in Redrid which is expected to
be completed within one year. The Station is actively pursuing
this matter with the intention to install various audio devices
in the new building. There will be a number of barriers to
overcome since the INRUHENS appear to want the building con-
structed by their own team of workers. The Station expects
to work closely with QUINN in this operation. (Bee OSHA 26040,

Notes
1.
Now that AAUTC-1 is scheduled to go back to Cuba in mid-year, it is
a bit late to begin the recruitment of an intermediary. we have information that
he intends to go back to MININT rather than MIRREX or even HINCEK, which makes the
likelihood of his coming out again somewhat slimmer to say the least. I'm afraid
that, although we have time only for a reasoned quick approach, this type of ap-
proach might lose him to us for good.
2. This causing him to become suspicious is not quite what we had in mind
when we wrote ref B. o made, 1 think, a rather strong case for laying cards on.
the table with ALAUTO-1, and a slow development by a senior staff officer seemed
to emerge from the possibilities. We even suggested how it might be done (through
the gymnasium). That might be impossible, but the validity of the approach should
deserve a 
comment.
}
3. An intermediary would be an access agent, so certainly he should be
responsive. I can't consider this point to have any additional bearing on the
matter. 
Of course it will be difficult, and I'mglad they're prepared to work on
it.
:
4. I'd like to have had a chance to review the Dun & Bradstreet file on
Carlitos, even tho the PCA has gone forward. CORRECTION: we have it.
5. A joint operation (income ways) is the easy way out. We simply did not
get started 
in 
time.
6. I disagree, because the question of commitments is somewhat premature,
but I'd 
be 
willing to push for 750-1,000 a month while working in place, with a
bonus when 
he does come out. For defection outright, which is a poor second, he
might even be 
worth work to resettle him here. LBGA 19006 reported a 1964 attempt
to get at Mrs. ANAUTO-
1's relatives in Miami, and they might still be there. hero
haps they would sponsor. Everything, but everything depends on initial approaches
and debriefings.
7. There are a lot of unanswered questions, rosed in the outgoing, and I'd.

1. There is little we can contribute to the exceptionally
fine reports submitted by Headquarters on AMAUTO-1. His
character, personality, physical and mental capabilities,
and to some extent even his vulnerabilities, are succinctly
outlined in your reports. In addition, you have appropriately
recognized the Hurculean task we have, to overcome his strong-
mindedness and idealistic character.
2. After a series of discussions among the officers
involved with PBRUMEN operations at the Station, we have
concluded that to execute a logically developed "traditional"
recruitment, we are faced with the challenge to recruit a
person, an intermediary, in whom AMAUTO-1 has confidence and
respect; an individual who is able to plausibly carry on a
polemic argument with AMAUTO-1 without either antagonizing
him or causing him to become suspicious of the intermediary's
true role. Moreover, the intermediary must be intelligent
to be able to respond in an appropriate way to our instructions,
as well as show a genuine willingness to cooperate. Frankly,
we have no such person, currently on our list of assets and
to find someone with the attributes set forth in Reference A
will be difficult to say the least, but we are prepared to
work diligently on this problem.

of QUTINID and QUDOZE; there are at least three persons

intermediary. They are Identities A, B, and C.
categorically eliminate Identity A for obvious reasons, i.c.,
lack of direct access to him. Because of his relationship
to Identity D, we can also tentatively eliminate Identity B.
He presents a risk which we are not certain should be taken;
however, we would like to add a comment on him in a later
paragraph. Identity C would seem to be the most logical
choice. He is intelligent, a professional man, well-to-do,
young and one with whom AMAUTO-1 frequently talks and whom
he often sees. We know little about his political proclivities
although he gives the impression of being a moderate analyst
of world events and doesn't seem to have a strong affection
or aversion for the PBRUMEN Government. We have a good
background on him prepared for us by Dun and Bradstreet;
however, as you can well imagine, the report concentrates on
the economic side of the individual. We have made a number
of attempts here in the Embassy to determine whether he has
any American contacts, but with negative results: His visa
file does not show where he visited in the United States or

indefinite visa and we are fairly certain that, if necessary,
we could use the question of his visa as an entree to him.
We are currently reviewing with all Station assets their
knowledge of Identity C. In addition, we are also considering
assets such as QUCASH-1 and QUSPOT-1, who could, under some
○ legitimate business pretext, contact Identity C. Our objective
( is to develop a warm entree to Identity C without compromising
any of our agents, but we are in need of an assessment of
Identity C by either a Station Officer or an asset working
under an officer's instructions. We will keep you advised of
our progress. We are forwarding PRQ Part I under separate

4. Identity B would be an excellent choice if not for
his relationship with Identity D. This avenue might be explored
with QUSEQUIN-48 if Headquarters is agreeable to a joint
operation. QUSEQUIN-48 could probably get the necessary
clearances from Identity D directly, or from one of Identity D's
aides, to contact Identity B. We will not pursue this until
we receive your comments.
5. It is not too early to consider the emoluments we
might want to offer to AMAUTO-1 at the time a pitch is made.
As always they should be divided into two areas for defection
and for recruitment and work in place.

RYBAT TYPIC TECHS/Construction of New PBRUNEN Embassy
ACTION REQUIRED REFERENCES
Reference: OSMA 24774
The PBRUMEN government has approved the construction
in Madrid of a new office building to be used as an Embassy,
Commercial office and residence for the PBRUMEN Minister.
The site has been identified and work is expected to begin
soon, probably after the return of AMAUTO-1 from PBRUMEN,
sometime within the next two weeks. The builders expect to
complete the building within eight months.
2. QUSEQUIN-37 is far more confident than we are, about
the possibility of getting access to the building during the
construction phase to possibly install various audio devices.
We believe this operation to be a formidable one and we might
be challenged by the presence in Madrid of PBRUMEN security
forces overseeing the construction, the presence of PBRUMEN
electricians and other professions, complicating the access
to the building. No believe AMAUTO-1 has the Romanian.
experience well in mind and most likely will do everything
within his power to overcome the possibility of an audio
penetration of his building.
3. We would be grateful for any information addressees
might have on the general modus operandi of PBRUMEN security
forces in areas where PBRUMEN official installations have been
constructed. Have they used PBRUMEN technicians, electricians,
construction engineers, etc? Also we would like to know whether
the PBRUMENS have installed their own telephone system or have
they generally relied on the system of the host country. We
would appreciate too, any comments Headquarters or
other addressees would like to make on the best
course of action for the Station to consider. QUSEQUIN-37
believes he can get a copy of the blueprints after the plan

According to QUTIMID on 26 February, Miss SUAREZ
de Cepeda of the Grolier Company called AMAUTO-1 and spoke
with his secretary to explain that her company is giving
their book to a number of persons in order to obtain their
opinions about the product and AMAUTO-1 was one of the persons
on Grolier's list. AMAUTO-1's secretary said that he would.
call when he returned. Later, Miss SUAREZ was told that an
appointment was made for 10 March.
2.
This would appear to be a routine item which
probably would not merit further investigation, unless we
can discover someone of higher caliber in the Grolier Company
who could approach AMAUTO-1 as a means of cultivating a mean-
ingful friendship with AMAUTO-1.

An official Spanish service from a usually reliable source
who was able to read the memorandum reported below.
1. In a memorandum dated 30 January 1970 to Carlos A.
Neira Garcia, official of the Cuban Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, the Cuban charge d'affaires in Madrid
Chillermo Ruiz Perez outlined the salient current
problems of most concern to his mission:
a. Building construction. Ruiz submitted
a proposal to Havana in December 1969 for the
construction of a building to house all the mission
offices including the embassy, the consulate, the
commercial office, the Cubana Airlines office, and
possibly the minister's residence. Ruiz had not
received a concrete reply to the proposal and he
urged Neira to take it up again with the ministry.
b. Radio facility. Responding to a request
from the Director of the Cuban National Fishing
Institute, Emilio Aragones Navarro, in
December 1969, Ruiz applied to the Spanish authori-
ties for permission to install a radio facility.
in the Canary Islands for communicating with Cuban
ships. The permission had been granted by late
December yet Havana had failed to follow up the
project with plans and instructions.

C. Visa delays. Havana is consistently
late in processing visa requests for foreigners
traveling to Cuba. Ruiz attributed the delays
to the red tape which involves processing the
requests through two ministries; The Visa Section
in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the
Directorate of Immigration in the Ministry of
Interior. Ruiz requested authorization for the
consulate to send its visa requests directly to
the Directorate of Immigration since this is the
section that ultimately determines whether a
foreigner may or may not enter Cuba..

TYPIC/QUTIMID/U.S. Company in Touch with Cuban Embassy, Madrid
ACTION REQUIRED - REFERENCES
Miss
QUTIMID reported a 21 January 1970 conversation held
between the wife of the Cuban Charge in Madrid and a Miss
"Lourdes" 
speaking for the Grolier Company in New York.
Lourdes 
said that her company was undertaking some type of
publicity 
and wished to interview the Charge in this regard.
When questioned 
about what kind of work the company does,
Lourdes replied that Grolier is an investigation (studies)
and 
consultant 
firm with central office located in New York City.
Lourdes gave 
her local number as 233-7448. She was advised
that 
the matter would be brought up to the Charge, Guillermo
RUIZ, and she would 
be informed of the results later.
2. Later that day Aristides DIAZ Ruvirosa, the Embassy's
press 
officer 
and a member of the DGI, called back to say that
he would see her 
the next day in his office at 10:30.
3. According to QUSEQUIN, telephone 233-7448 is registered
in the 
name 
of Isaac BENDAHAN Sananes at Calle General Moscardo 8,
6th floor, 
Apt. C, Madrid. There are no Station or liaison traces
on BENDAHAN.
.4. DO Base New York may be able to identify the Grolier
Company in New York and the reason for which their representative
was in touch 
with the Cuban Embassy.
15.
Whatever follow-up action is conducted, the sensitivity
of the QUTIMID operation should be kept firmly in mind so that
our 
interest does not appear to stem from a technical monitoring
of the Cuban 
installation.

I told her that I personally regretted it,
as an
individual and as Cuban, but that as a diplomat I could
not do her any favor because she had left Cuba voluntarily,
in flight, and that I could not render any assistance to
her and least of all protect her. If I had then been
able to take pictures, I could have sent them to Havana
for them to see (This happened when RUIZ had first arrived
here.)
RUIZ goes on to say that many people are misled when they
arrive in Madrid from Cuba, or have been misled by their
relatives. Parents bring their children--RUIZ says there
are over 400 Cuban children in one school. One of them
left ( school 7 once and passage had to be provided for him
at the airport in CUBANA and allowed him to leave because
.
they did not want to be mixed up in that affair. The child
was 14 years old and did not want to stay in Madrid in the
parrochial school with the monks. R says that should anything
happen to him and his wife wants to stay in Madrid, he wants
his children to return to Cuba and remain there until they
become of age and make their own choice, but that to take
children out of Cuba is a mistake.

permission to travel to Havana, but that she will not be

She goes
on to say that she had not asked MELVA or anyone else
for her passage, but had written to RUZ (ph) saying the t
she was very depressed and that she missed her son very
much, and they had arranged for her passage. NILDA adds that
she is not going on a pleasure trip, but to see her son and
see how he is doing, which she finds only natural. She
would have stayed with him for two whole days and would
have talked to the School Director and found out how the
child was doing. She calls R selfish and says if the trip
had been for him she would not have doubted it. She wants
to know why RUIZ places objections to her trip to Havana.
He wants the two of them to go together, and for her
to wait until their vacation, not at this time. She

There is another unidentified Cuban in the office.
When RUIZ is left alone with her, he says that he feels
i
like an exile, that he has been out for two years and
is tired.
There are many who want to be out of Cuba,
he continues, but it seems to him they want to keep
him out of the way. He goes on to say that LEON had
appointed him, and supported him, but although they
are good friends, he does not like to work with a
man whom one never knows what he is thinking, and one
never gets to know. R mentions a cable he had sent
and says it could have cost his assassination, and
that he had purposely done so to see if he were summoned
to discuss the matter in Cuba. He would have liked to
discuss it there, but they have apparently remained
silent. R laments he feels as if he were in Miami.

lost the ticket.
One Miss LOURDES calls on behalf of the Grolier Company
from New York and tells NILDA they are conducting some

if she is the same person who called the other day and
said she was the widow of... (MATOS). The woman says
'yes' and NILDA tells her: "Look Miss, you're playing
a very dangerous game. "
MATOS: I don't know what you mean, miss.
NILDA:
Well, because none of the comrades here is going
to allow himself to be provoked. So, please
do not keep on."
MATOS:
Well, I don't know what you are

miss, I am completely astonished."
NILDA:
Well look, don't be astonished, you might end
up some other way.
MATOS: I don't know what you are talking about.
NILDA: Well, we do.
NILDA hangs up.
Mrs. MATOS calls the Ambassador's secretary again; it seems
there has been a misunderstanding.
NILDA:
MATOS:
Look miss, we do not wish to talk to you anymore.
We are telling you in a nice way. Please do not

I was called on behalf of the Ambassador of Chile

NILDA: Didn't you call here a few days ago?
MATOS: I called when I was advised to do so.

up in these things for they may cost you dearly.
Very well, miss. I am deeply grateful to have been
enlightened by you. I can see already that it is
simply a plot or an implication by someone.
NILDA:
MATOS:
It is a plot and we know it. And we know who is
behind it.
Yes, miss, I would also like to know, I assure you.
NILDA: Well look, stay away from this mess or you'll pay

with the Minister who told him that next week they would discuss
the matter of costs and that the Minister was in favor of Ruiz'
idea. Ruiz asks Villaroya to wait a few days more and in the
event that they receive bad news they will have a few drinks
together at the Castellano to forget their sorrow.
Ruiz says
he is very anxious to move out of the place he is in, and aks
how long it will take to construct the building. Villaroya tells
him about 9 or 10 months. Ruiz says that most litely he won't
be there to inaugurate the building because his tour is ending in
Spain, but that he will come from wherever he is for the inaugur-
ation.

(The connection is poor) Ruiz greets MARTINEZ MOREL(phon-
he seems to be Cuban) and tells him that he (Aristides) arrived
Saturday and that he is leaving on Sunday (1 February) for Cuba.
He asks for MILT(phon) and Martinez says that up to Monday he
hadn't arrived.
Aristides asks to speak with extension 4111. They don't answer.
He then asks for 4110 and an American, whose name seems to be
Frank, answers. They speak lengthily in English about the
installation of television in two Cuban schools. They also speak
about films and the financing of the projects, mentioning the.
Swedes and the people of UNICEF.
"
Item 23.- PILOTO CALLS CUCA (It is 10:30 PM). They speak for a
long time although Piloto is a little worried and nervous. He
says '--the one on guard today is one of the bad ones and besides
this, he is with his wife". He tells Cuca that as the offices are
carpeted you can't hear anyone's footsteps--and he is afraid they
will hear him. He remarks, "The people here have got me very
nervous"

Item 18.- The second tapo begins with part of a conversation
between Piloto 
and Cuca around dinner time. Cuca says that her
mother is 55 
years old and her father is 57. Her mother she says
has had six children. Piloto

Item 3.- CONCHITA CALLS HILDA.- Sho says that the place where she
bought the 
radio is called BARROSO and it is at Lavapies 45.
Nilda talks 
to Alicia. She says that she had a very nice time (in
Havana), 
but that the weather was very bad; it rained a lot and
it was 
cold. Nilda was with (in Havana) Alicia's children.
says that they got very good marks in their studies and the little
one can 
read and they are very happy. Nilda also spoke with
Alicia's mother-in-law. She is suffering from la pres ion(high or
low blood 
pressure) and she has not been able to get the necessary
medicine. 
Then Nilda speaks of her own son. She says ho is very
tall and thin and that ho 
is working in tobacco. She says he is
in 
Guane (phon), and as she couldn't make the trip as it was two and
a half hours long, they sent the boy to her house and she was with
him for 
a few days. She says the boy is very happy, he is a serious
type and causes no 
problems. Apparently Nilda's mother is ill,
according to her remarks. Alicia says it is better that Hilda's
boy is in Cuba, because there ho will becorte a man and solve his
Lown problems.

Guillermo RUIZ Pérez
1
DOB: Late January or early February 1930.
POST: Minister Plenipotentiary, accredited
since 12 December 1967.
ADDRESS: Juan de Mena #8, Madrid.
TELEPHONES: 259-5956 (home), 221-7028 (office).
DOI: March 1970.
WIFE: Nilda VECIANA. Probably in her early thirties,
she is pregnant and was due to have her sixth child
in May 1970. However, her physician recommended
forced labor (reasons unknown), which was scheduled
for 17 April 1970. She has had difficulties with
her pregnancy because of recurring fainting spells
and overweight, which are being treated by Dr. HER-
NANDEZ and Dr. MATA ( the latter ordered lab tests
for Diabetes, the results of which are unknown).
'
· Married for 16 years to Guillermo, Nilda
is a pleasant woman who has not been known to
quarrel openly with her husband or express
political or religious opinions, although in
this last respect she has recited the Lord's
Prayer in front of Embassy personnel, which
suggests that she may have been or is a practicing
Catholic.
Mrs. Ruiz is a language teacher by profession
( speaks English fluently), and is active in
the Embassy as secretary to her husband and book-
keeper, but only on an informal basis.
Of rather weak personality [ Exception,
see Attachment II; she was upset at the time_7,
which is reflected in the way that she handles
her five boys--"little beasts, ", according to
Severina ORTIZ, the maid--, Mrs. Ruiz does not
permit them to be punished severely and is always
○ complaining that she does not spend sufficient
time with them.

She is known to have lived in New York
for five years in the fifties ( on. 48th St.,
three blocks from Times Square), a city that
she likes very much. She goes shopping alone,
and once even to the airport in a taxi ( Juan
Antonio CURBELO, the embassy security officer,
did not like the idea) to wait for her husband's
arrival from one of his trips. She seems to
get along well with the wives of other Cubans
in the staff.
Nilda travelled to Havana on 30 January
1970 to see her son Guillermito, and returned
to Madrid on 11 February. Although RUIZ.
used her to send a lengthy memoto Carlos
NEIRA, his superior_at MINREX [for text
see Attachment III_7, he was not very happy
with her trip- an attitude that Nilda resented
very much ("You are very selfish") until her
husband changed his mind.
Her parents live in Havana (local telephone,
2-8130). ✓ Cuban Telephone Directory lists that
telephone number under Y. LAM, Calle 21 #3421,
Marianao._7
CHILDREN:
1. Guillermito ("Guille"). At 14 he is
the oldest and is currently studying in Havana.
He is very tall and thin. There were reports
that he was unhappy in Cuba, and his father
went to Havana on 16 October 1969 to solve a
"personal problem" with Guillermito. If true,
Guille no longer feels that way because on 26
December he was quoted to be very happy in his
new school.
Guille was scheduled to cut cane after
10 January 1970, but was actually assigned to
a tobacco farm in Guane early this year.
2.- Alejandro, who is nine years old
(DOB: 15 Feb). According to those who know
him he is a real "devil" and a good swimmer.
He is taking guitar lessons, and goes to Colegio

SECRET
Estilo and Gimnasio Mascardo, Pilar de Zaragoza
$99, Madrid.
3.- Ivan, who is about eight years old.
4.- Juan Carlos.
15. Juliote.
All five are very spoiled and have caused
several maids to leave their jobs. Severina
ORTIZ bitterly complains that they show no
respect for their parents. This is why she
"hates" Mrs. Ruiz. There was another maid,
Ana María who was replaced because she did
not look after the children. ✓ Ana María is
currently employed by the wife of Arístides
DIAZ, who is leaving Spain definitively in August
1970. 7
BACKGROUND: Guillermo RUIZ, familiarly known
as El Guajiro, probably comes from a humble
family in Cuba, as he lived in a solar [ in
Cuba, a slum dwelling 7 in Marianao and began
to work when he was only 14 years old.
In the fifties he emigrated to the United
States, travelling throughout the East Coast
and holding minor jobs. In 1957 he began to
work as an apprentice butcher for a Polish-
American named Alexander SAMKO, who had a
grocery store on Flagler St. in Miami. He
did so well in attracting Latin-American customers
to the store that he soon began to distribute
meat in the area for SAMKO.
He has said that when he left Miami
in 1958 he turned over to his brother a house
in North Miami, a brand new car, and over a
thousand dollars in the bank.
..
But his "success" could be traced, perhaps,
to another acquaintance that he is known to
have had.

At the time RUIZ and Major José María MOLEON
Carreras, then another Cuban exile, were in contact
with an American of Cuban descent known as Joe LOUIS
or LUIS, an underworld figure who was competing
with the Italians in the bolita racket in Tampa.
RUIZ himself has
or LOUIS offered close associates that LUIS
$800 a month, plus car and
expenses, to supervise "collections" in Miami.
.
Furthermore, LOUIS or LUIS even asked them
to kill a man named FERNANDEZ, who was involved
in the numbers game in Miami, for $5000 each.
In February 1958 RUIZ left Miami with Harry
VILLEGAS Tamayo [a Captain in the Cuban Army,
he has been seen at parties in foreign embassies
in Havana with Major Manuel PINEIRO Losada, DGI
chief 7 and three other members of the 26th of
July Movement and entered Cuba clandestinely.
At the triumph of the Revolution Alexander
SAMKO went to Havana, where he stayed for a
week at RUIZ's home, and offered him a partner-
ship in the business, which RUIZ rejected.
In 1960 he was one of 18 out of 5000 who
were selected by the Ministry of the Treasury,
where he was working, to take the full statistics
course outlined by ECLA. The course, which lasted
two years, included such subjects as mathematics,
finances, democracy... and Marxism-Leninism.
One of his schoolmates at the time was
Marta ARCOL, now director of the Art Museum of
Havana.
In 1963 he was sent to Mexico, and after
returning to Havana was appointed Chief of the
Trade School at MINCEX, post that he held for
two years.
In 1967 he was sent to Spain to replace
Ramón CALZADILLA as charge d'affaires..
SECRET
SECRET

EDUCATION: Aside from the statistics course
taken in 1960, RUIZ seems to lack, in the eyes
of some observers, a solid, formal education.
But he makes up for it by being an avid reader
(five newspapers a day, plus books). This impression,
however, may be wrong, for there are indications
that he either studied or wanted to be a CPA.
He understands and speaks English and
French (fluency unknown), and has undertaken
to teach grammar to the embassy staff.
Sensitive to art, or so he says," he
frequently complains of the general lack of
culture in Cuba. His vocabulary level is rather
low, cussing quite often in the presence of
others..
RUIZ is well-versed in world affairs,
and does have an understanding of international
trade.
He has read some of the works of José Martí,
whom he likes to quote. But there is another
book that he also refers to repeatedly, Kim PHILBY's,
the KGB spy who penetrated MI-6.
He is up-to-date on current intelligence
publications.
HEALTH: Blond, baby-faced, and blue-eyed ("Very
handsome," according to Anita, the young maid ),
RUIZ is known to be suffering from an undisclosed
liver illness for which he takes a medicine called
bilidis. Late in 1969 he was planning to go to
Portugal on vacation following the advice of his
physician, Dr. Pedro CABAS ( telephones, 276-7746,
256-2294), but he did not make the trip. He coughs
frequently, is used to cold weather, and was thinking
of going to the same gymnasium as his son Alejandro.

He wears eyeglasses to correct astigmatism,
and is known to like skin-diving, a sport that
he practiced in Cuba.
:
In general terms, however, he enjoys good
health.
There is no doubt that Guillermo RUIZ
exercas Minister Plenipotentiary (relations
EMPLOYMENT 
full authority that presumably he
should
between Cuba and Spain remain at this level
because of Spain's refusal to appoint a full
Ambassador after LOJENDIO was expelled from
the Island by Fidel CASTRO).
He is involved in and kept informed of
all matters that have to do with Cuban-Spanish
relations, including trade. He does not permit
.commercial attachés to bypass him when they
submit reports to their respective enterprises
in Havana.
In addition, he supervises Cubana Air.
Lines operations, and no one may travel on
Iberia to Havana without his permission (this
applies only to Cubans, for tickets must be
paid in foreign currency). Evidently he controls
the Cuban Embassy in Lisbon, and Rafael FERNANDEZ
Sardiñas, the charge there, travels frequently to
Madrid for consultations with RUIZ ( " Our relations
with Portugal are not very good now").
Cuban officials arriving in Madrid must
consult with him before arranging visits to
Spanish officials or factories, and only 'he,
Juan Antonio CURBELO Lemes, Aristides DIAZ
Rovirosa, and Roberto FRANCO Oliva, are authorized
to issue visas for people travelling to Cuba.
He seems to have good working relations
with Spanish Government officials because he
is always careful to place all the "cards" on
the table in his meetings with them.
SEGRET

Nothing is known about unofficial contacts
with other diplomats in Madrid except that he
is close to and exchanges information with the
Algerian Ambassador.
At times he tries to give the impression,
and this might be true, that he enjoys the full
personal confidence of Osvaldo DORTICOS and Raúl
ROA.
He frequently tells other Cuban diplomats
stopping in Madrid that he makes 90% of the
decisions without consulting Havana because
that is "why I am here for.
Above all, he directs constant and bitter
criticism against the bureaucracy in Havana
because of its incompetence, which, in his opinion,
will cause Fidel CASTRO to carry out a major purge
after the 1970 sugar harvest comes to an end ("No
one in Havana wants or cares to make a decision").
The Peter Frinciple " In a hierarchy every
employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence" 7,
which he has read and is going to send to Fidel CASTRO
for reading on the advice of Melba HERNANDEZ, should
be taken as an example of what is happening in
Cuba. Furthermore, in his view Havana is always
trying to interfere with the Embassy in Madrid,
resulting in lack of co-ordination and even co÷
operation. ( To Horacio FUENTES Martínez: More
than lack of organization there is chaos in Cuba
today.")

his staff in Madrid because they lack qualifications.

don't miss anything that they do."

In turn, he has also been the target of
criticism from Havana, first from Sonia GOMEZ,
who made a critical evaluation of the Embassy,
which he decided not to answer ("I took a
librium, smoked a cigar, and forgot all about
it").
☐ Sonia GOMEZ, a MINREX inspector close
to Vice-Minister Carlos CHAIN, was in Madrid
in mid-February 1970 for another review of
embassy accomplishments. But this time she
seemed friendly with Guillermo RUIZ. 7
On another occasion he complained to
Aristides DIAZ that he had received one more
critical report from Havana because the Embassy
"had not achieved much," although they had done
things that were not included in the yearly
plan.
But perhaps the most serious censure of
his activities came in by telex (" Why worry?
The Americans and the Spaniards intercept all
messages anyway") early in October 1969. Havana
questioned the way RUIZ was handling trade
negotiations with the Spanish Government. [The
trade agreement was extended by mutual consent
to 31 December 1972.7
In his reply addressed to Raúl LEON Torras,
first vice-minister of MINCEX and senior Cuban
official directly responsible for the talks,
Guillermo RUIZ defended his right to be "informed"
and "consulted" in rather strong language.
Therefore, he rejected that his cable number 521
was offensive to Joaquin ALVAREZ, a Cuban trade
official who had been the source of the complaint.
In the last paragraph he told Raúl LEON
that the indemnification question ( payment to
Spanish citizens who owned property in Cuba)
depended on his reply to Don Pedro SALVADOR,
a Spanish Foreign Office official, and not on
"bribery" conjectures.

- Evidently this last cable upset him so
much that he was nervous and particularly
security-conscious. Less than a week later,
The called Raúl LEON Torras and requested
permission to go to Cuba, ostensively to
settle a "personal problem with my son.
11
When he returned to Madrid on 29 October
he was a changed man, again fully confident
of himself. Nevertheless, he has told close
friends that he feels very lonely in Spain
and has had the desire to simply board a plane
and return to Cuba abandoning the Embassy.
Late in January 1970 he was again de-
pressed, for he felt like an "exile" ia
Spain after two years of service ( " Even
though LEON played a part in my appointment
I cannot work for a man that I do not under-
stand. Maybe he sent me abroad to get me out
of the way. I feel as if I were in Miami.")
He thinks he is "burned" in Spain, and
when he returns to the Island he will definitely
not go back to MINREX, but to MININT. He has
told close friends his term in Spain is up and
he will be returning to Cuba probably in the
summer. In any event, he does not plan to be in
Spain more than nine months. Nilda, his wife,
has stressed that they are leaving Madrid permanently
in July 1970.
POLITICAL AND IDEOLOGICAL VIEWS: Although
outwardly a "revolutionary", Guillermo RUIZ
is a man of moderate political views struggling
to justify the actions of his government in
face of the political and economic realities
of Castro's Cuba.

In this sense his inner feelings perhaps
to the theory of the betrayed revolution,
but not for ideological reasons: the incompetence
of the Cuban Government has in fact sabotaged
the goals of the Revolation.
A member of the Cuban Communist Party, to
which he was admitted on the recommendation of
Armando HART Dávalos, secretary of Organization,
he is definitely not a convinced Marxist, and
consequently cannot accept the role of "robot"
required by Party discipline and vertical
structure ( Revolutionaries should not be
coerced by political control forms," he wrote
Telesforo DIAZ Portillo, a MINPEX official,
on 26 December 1969. " Communists are quite
meddlesome," he told another colleague soon
after, although in this instance he may have
been referring to the Spanish CP).
But the most important revelation of
his views came to light on 11 December 1969,
when he was quoted as telling a visiting DAP
official from Havana: " If I disagree with
orders, I question them because I am not a
robot nor do I have the mentality of one. As
a human being I express opinions no matter
the risk that I may personally have to take."
Obviously, a man who thinks in this way
cannot be a Marxist,
Aside from the constant criticism of
Havana because of incompetence, lack of vision,
and the unreal world they live in, he is quick
to point out other deficiencies in life there,
as reflected in his directive to the embassy
staff not to celebrate Christmas together
because there are "hungry people" in Cuba. But
he did invite some of his associates for dinner

He has also said that medicine in general is
quite backwards in Cuba.
Probably an atheist, he is known to believe
that "religion should not be considered a
handicap for people trying to return to Cuba."
On the other hand, he refers to Latin-
American diplomats as "bootlickers" because
they use the English language in parties, and
has remarked that "capitalism is 
no good".
RUIZ seems to have certain admiration for
Francisco FRANCO, who, in his view, is the only
reason why Spain has not turned communist. Of
course, it is doubtful that he really believes
this.
He does not hide his favorable opinions.
of the American people, who are "frank" and
"simple". " They treated me very well," he
told Raúl LEON Torras in December 
1969.
On international matters he is up-to-
date and well-informed. Following are some
of his views, which are contradictory at times:
" Cuba is a political power, not a military
or economic power.
" The USSR has neutralized U.S. sea power
in the Mediterranean.
" Cuba can destroy Guantanamo whenever ft
chooses to do so, although the base has lost its
strategic value to the United States.
"
US-China rapproachment should be feared,
but also a Japan-China alliance.

" U.S. power is beginning to crumble, but
the Soviets are revisionists.
" The Egyptians harm us when they buy sugar
from Cuba and then resell it to other countries.
"We have to be on the side of the Soviets
for two reasons: first from the military and
economic point of view; secondly, because whether
right t or wrong they are on the same side fighting
those who are on the other side.
Cuba has had and has major discrepancies
with the USSR, China, and the U.S., but we are
on the side of communism because we are against
capitalism.
"Israel and Cuba have the same motivations.
That is why they are so successful against the
Arabs. They have no choice.
"The Egyptians and the Syrians are not
brave. The Israelites, like the Cubans, are
brave enough to face the enemy."
PERSONALITY : Guillermo RUIZ is an easy-going
rather simple man who no doubt enjoys the prestige
and success that he has had in Spain.
He has a strong personality, undoubtedly
the predominant pole in his marriage. He seems
to get along well with his wife. ( " If anything
should happen to me and my wife wants to remain
in Spain, I want my children to go back to Cuba
to study. Then they can decide for themselves
what they want to do.")
Certain degree of racism can be detected
in his speech, for he always refers to Negroes
as niches, a contemptuous Cuban expression.

He almost never discusses women with
colleagues, nor is he known to be involved
in any extramarital affair.
✓ Possible exceptions: Vera VORODOWSKI,
his secretary now in Cuba. There were rumors
that RUIZ was the beneficiary of Vera's affection.
There is also a young Spanish girl named JIMENA
(Inu), who addresses RUIZ in the familiar tu.
She lives in the house of Carmen LABRA or LABRADA.7
He likes to go to the movies ( saw Topaz;
no comments), and receive people at his home
for cocktails.
SECURITY: It is normal for any member of the
Cuban Foreign Service to exercise certain discretion
in the area of security, but Guillermo RUIZ is
particularly sensitive in this respect, which
perhaps could be traced to his probable involvement
with the DGI in one way or another.
He is quick to warn visiting Cubans of the
CIA's efforts ( ". La Compañía Sociedad Anónima" )
to compromise them, even before leaving Havana.
"Our Embassy," he says, "is the primary target
for U.S. operations in Spain.' 
"
He keeps control of mail going to and
coming from Havana in the diplomatic pouch,
and states repeatedly that his office is
bugged and telephone tapped (" There are micro-
phones here the size of olives"). In addition,
he thinks he is followed openly by Seguridad.
For all these reasons he has asked Havana
for funds to build a new embassy, where he plans
to have a shielded room free from microphones. ( The
building, which will cost approximately $600.000,
was approved by Havana and a Cuban architect travelled
to Madrid in late March 1970 to discuss the project
with Sr. VILLARROYA, from Construcciones Azagra, who
is 
handling the real-estate operation, Villarroya's
telephone number is 254 4238.)

He is particularly aware of what he calls
"traps", and in this sense recalls that once
he was asked to dinner by the wife of a VIP,
and after accepting the invitation he was told
that someone else and a priest would attend
too. Even though the lady in question was very
upset, he did not go because one of those
present could have been a "seditionist" ready
to be 'arrested" by the police. An inevitable
scandal would have followed. He adds that he
receives visits in the Embassy because there
he admits only those that he wants to see..
".
An interesting item is the case of
Conchita CAMACHO (telephone 201 4989), who
called RUIZ at the Embassy claiming to have
met him at a party and wanting to see him,
alone, at the Hilton for a "chat". _ See
Attachments I and II.7

FUENTES to check the telephone number ( "The
CIA has a new agent"), in spite of the fact
that Raúl LEON Torras was arriving in Madrid
on that night.
He and Fernando, his driver, waited outside
until the woman left the hotel with some men.
RUIZ wanted only, so he says, to warn her not
to get involved in matters between Cubans because
she could "lose her life".
Regarding communications, Guillermo RUIZ
has even suggested installing a radio transmitter
and speaking in code with Havana. ✓ The Cubans
are in fact installing a radio transmitter on
Islas Canarias to communicate with their fishing
fleet. But RUIZ, in this particular case, has.

stressed to the Spanish Government that Cuba
is willing to permit Spanish citizens to operate
the station, thereby avoiding any suspicion that
the transmitter will be used for other purposes. _7

Antonio CURBELO Lemus, the "cultural" first
secretary who in reality is the security man.
at the Embassy ( RUIZ has complained that he
needs a "real" one in Madrid: "Sergio _DEL.

they were getting someone ready to send as
cultural attaché" ), for CURBELO instructed
the front-desk girl to pass on to him a
Summary of who sees who and for what, including
RUIZ's visitors.
RUIZ likes to recall the time when a Cuban
in his staff ( name unknown, but presumably he
is back in Cuba) spread the rumor that RUIZ
and Nilda were not well-liked in Havana, perhaps
to undermine his authority. CURBELO reprimanded
the man by stressing that "when Havana is doubtful
of anybody here in Madrid it uses official channels
to let us know."
Nevertheless, he does make mistakes, as
evidenced by discussing in his office, with
members of his staff, the possibility of advising
Havana that a Spanish foreign service officer
scheduled for duty there might be open for
recruitment. Recalling his constant warnings
that his office is bugged by Seguridad, such
discussion clearly exposes him to expulsion
from Spain.
By the same token, he likes to travel
by car to the interior of the country alone
( he must have powerful reasons to do so, for

he is risking attack by Cuban exiles, a possibility
that he surely must not discard given the
reception that they gave Armando HART Dávalos,
Carlos CHAIN, and Carlos ALFARAS at Barajas
Airport on 30 June 1968). Neither his wife
nor CURBELO approve of this.
At times he is known to write on paper
key phrases or names when discussing confidential
matters in his office, or to speak very low.
Furthermore, he says he goes to Parque del Retiro
when he wants to discuss sensitive matters with
anybody.
In short, he is security-conscious, very
shrewd, and suspicious of anybody that comes'
near him.
TRAVEL: Following are the trips that Guillermo
EUIZ made from October 1969 to February 1970:
To Havana to settle a "personal problem"
on 20 October 1969 by Iberia ( first class),
returning to Madrid on 29 October.
To London on 14 November 1969 for consultations
with Raúl LEON Torras, returning two days later
by air ( also first class).
To Bilbao, San Sebastian, and Burgos, by
car, on 28 November 1969, returning two days
later..
To Italy from Barcelona with his wife and
two children on 29 December 1969. He went to
pick up an Alfa Romeo, which he paid out of his
own funds. They returned through Florence, Genoa,
San Remo, and Barcelona, arriving in Madrid on
6 January 1970.

To Burgos by car with REGALADO (fnu) and

To Havana on 20 February 1970. He was
scheduled to participate in trade negotiations
with the Spanish delegation that left Madrid
on 22 February 1970. RUIZ returned to Madrid
on 24 March 1970.
FRIENDS Not much is known about Guillermo
RUIZ's personal acquaintances, except for the
following:
Pedro RUIZ.- A good friend who goes to
his home rather frequently, Pedro is quite
influential according to Guillermo. He is
also a friend of MASSO (fnu).
Carlos or Enrique CARRASCO. - He is a
partner of Carrasco, Muñoz e Iturriaga, with
offices at Avenida Generalísimo #28, 10th floor.
RUIZ meets with him often, either for lunch
or at his home. They seem to be good personal
friends. CARRASCO may have to do with arrangements
for the sale of Cuban frozen seafood. Travelled
to New York late in October or early November
1969. RUIZ is known to have visited CARRASCO's
office.
Rosendo CANTO.- Lives at Goya #54, Madrid.
His friendship with RUIZ may be interesting if
he is the same Rosendo Canto who was a well-known
batistiano ( probably his father ). If this is
the case contacts with RUIZ are politically
dangerous for the latter, unless he is using
CANTO with the approval of Havana. According to
Roberto FRANCO Oliva, the cousul, CANTO
wanted to go to Cuba, live there for a year,
and then join the Cuban Foreign Service ( "He
is a fool," RUIZ ). CANTO's father is ill in Cuba

and sends him mail through the Cuban diplomatic
1 pouch. CANTO is involved with the diplomatic
representation of Equatorial Guinea.
Armando FERNANDEZ.- "A good friend,"
says RUIZ. But he has doubts about FERNANDEZ's
source of income ("Maybe he gets money directly
from Havana without my knowledge"). FERNANDEZ
sends a "lot of things" to Cuba. He is an
artist, and lives at Bondad #1 (telephone, 255-
3281). Armando claims to know Fidel CASTRO and
Celia SANCHEZ personally. It may be true, for
he received a package at the embassy from the
latter in March 1970. However, he asked the Cuban
staff to send it to him because he "did not want
to be seen taking something out of the embassy."
FERNANDEZ's father has cancer.
JIMENEZ Asenjo, deputy director of the
Spanish Dirección General de Seguridad. Knows
RUIZ personally, and is in contact with him
rather often, but presumably in the line of
duty.

SUMMARY:
Guillermo RUIZ is a very shrewd,
articulate individual who has reached heights
that in all probability would have been beyond
his capability in normal circumstances.
Nevertheless, from what can be seen his
work in Spain has been effective, and he keeps
a tight control over his staff. He is a man
confident of himself and of the backing [ Ar-
mando HART Dávalos ?_7 that he surely must
have in order to remain in this sensitive post
of the Cuban foreign service.
Precisely because of his privileged
status RUIZ is very careful in whatever he does,
avoiding mistakes that would endanger his
position.
Therefore, he will probably resist any
indirect approach, which he will-recognize in
time to brush it off.
But this does not mean that he is unapproachable,
for he is not. There is no question that his
personality is incompatible with the system that
he serves, although with profound misgivings as
to its efficiency. It is then a question of
how and when.
The very fact that he has made open remarks
suggesting his unhappiness with Havana and his
non-Marxist leanings in an office "bugged by.
the other side," as he points out, could be
interpreted as a signal on his part indicating
that he is ready to listen.
But he will be suspicious of an indirect
or subtle approach, which, in his view, could
be a trap to compromise him, including a loyalty
test by the DGI..
SECRET

-
Consequently, a direct approach has much
better chance of success. It would be proof for
him that he is walking on firm ground by
dealing directly with Americans. Which leads
to the question of when. There are two key
factors to consider :
a) His recall to Cuba.
b) The 10-million ton sugar harvest, which
is scheduled to end on 15 July 1970.
RUIZ has indicated that he is unhappy in
his post--perhaps not really meaning what he
says--, which he has occupied for over two
years.
As he has said that Fidel CASTRO plans
a major purge after the 1970 sugar harvest,
he himself may be one of the targets. Assuming
that his ideological inconsistencies have been
noticed, the DGI, in the absence of proof
regarding his loyalty and considering whatever
support he has in Havana, may request his
recall at an appropriate opportunity: during
a major reorganization of the Cuban Government.
In any event, RUIZ does not expect to
remain in Madrid much longer, and is planning
to be back in Havana by the 18th of July.
If Cuba is successful in harvesting 10
million tons of sugar, and they have already
reached six, the "victory" that Cuban propagandists
will herald from July on may have a psychological
impact on RUIZ's thought. He will be less
inclined to defect, in place or otherwise, at
such time.

Finally, if RUIZ's personality were to
be summarized in one word, that word would
be realist with a logical mind. Above all,
this is what RUIZ is.

"Present: locales do not meet the Spanish minimum re-

proposals for the leasing of a locale for the Commercial
Office with a rental fee of $2,000 a month. We discussed
this proposal at a meeting of comrades here and it was
rejected in the belief that it was more advantageous for
us to buy. We also discussed this with Fermín GUTIERREZ,
who visited the Commercial Office and to whom we pointed
out that in view of the system of payment here in Spain
it was better to purchase a building, since this transaction
at no time would affect our system in our trade policy with
Spain.
"To the point of being persistent we should like to
request a building for all services: the Cuban Office,
the Commercial Office, the Consulate-Embassy Office, plus
living quarters on the top floor for the diplomatic

"Another thing I want to bring to your attention is
in regard to our Consulate, its activities and relations
with the Visa Section. A letter has come from VERA
addressed to FRANCO pointing to FRANCO's incorrect wording
of a cable to that Section. I agree that it was incorrect,
but I find it strange that that Section should pay so much
attention to correct forms and analyze the contents so
little. The contents of things are not being studied,
and it is essential that deep thought be given to the work
that is being done. When someone comes to the Consulate
with an authorization to travel to Cuba, it is usually
three or four days prior to flight departure.
Visa Section must defer to the Department of Emigration
for its authorization, inasmuch as the latter determines

whether or not a foreigner can go into Cuba, the
is not carried out with the urgency that it requires,
consequently, there is delay. This creates much inconvenience
for us, and even personal problems, for we must consider that
often people arrive with the exact amount of money and a
week's delay could hurt them so that at times they don't
even have enough money for lodging or food.

"At present we have the case of a member of the
Chilean Communist Party and OSPAAAL whose passage has
been set aside by these organizations to travel from
Madrid to Cuba. Four days ago FRANCO sent a cable and
still there is no answer. We made the decision to grant
this person a visa because the plane leaves tonight,
otherwise he will have to delay the trip one more week.
If the tickets were reserved for him here there is no
doubt he has been given authorization.
NEIRA, I want you to talk to OJEDA and request that
our Consulate be able to contact the Emigration Department
directly. FRANCO has been on the job for approximately
one year and has never given reason for complaints, but
if he has now made a mistake in the editing of a cable
it could have been that in the face of mounting problems
he is presented with daily he might have exploded.
"Another thing I want to tell you is that last night
we had as guests in our home the Chilean Director Hugo
BENAVENTE and his wife, the leading lady in his Peruvian
company which has brought to the stage "Luz de Europa". If
they are not communists in the sense of the word, like
the rest of the company, they do sympathize with us. They

1. Headquarters has just completed, with the able help of
AMEDIT-2, a thorough review of QUDOZE tapes for the last quarter
of 1969. We have added pertinent file material where necessary
in order to round out the picture, but the review emerges
primarily as an assessment of AMAUTO-1 as a personality and as a
recruitment target. We forward this study as an attachment. hereto,
under separate cover, for your consideration.
2. Headquarters has not lost its keen interest in AMAUTO-1
as a long-range recruitment target, foreseeing the possibility of
defecting him in place (at least for the remainder of his posting
to Madrid), or defecting him outright (which would admittedly be
less desirable). In line with these purposes, we offer the follow-
ing readings, which may or may not be entirely applicable to
AMAUTO-1:
a. AMAUTO-1 is a shrewd, articulate person who has
reached heights that probably he might not have reached
under normal circumstances. His work in Spain has been
effective in general, and he seems to be very confident
of himself and of the backing which he thinks he has from
PBRUMEN.

b. Nevertheless, he has received some rather telling
criticism of a professional nature, even though it is
unknown whether this criticism also touches on his personal
life. Perhaps because of this, AMAUTO-1 seems to be very
careful in whatever he does, avoiding mistakes that would en-
danger his position, and avoiding any real or fancied
provocation.
"
.C. There seems to be little question that AMAUTO-1 is
approachable, although he would probably resist any
indirect approach in which "cards are not laid on the table.'
It appears very likely that his character is basically incom-
patible with the system he serves (with profound misgivings
as to its efficiency).
d. The very fact that he has made open remarks suggesting
his unhappiness with PBRUMEN and his non-Marxist leanings in
an office he himself points out is "bugged by the other side"
could be interpreted as a signal from him, indicating that he
is ready to listen. His remarks on the subject might be those
of a man who believes he can "jump off" at any time, if
☐ necessary. Note that he tends to live with criticism from
his home office rather than try to get out from under
perhaps meaning that he would not accept a PCS assignment
home. (The attachment hereto shows him describing a
compatriot who wishes to return home as "a fool.") He has
said himself that he believes AMTHUG-1 plans a major purge
for mid-1970, and he might consider himself as a victim of
that purge.
e. A fact which might affect timing is the arrival of
a child in May. If he were to persuade his wife (and his
government) to have the child in Spain, rather than return
home for it, he would have a good excuse for requesting the
presence of his oldest child (the only one who is now at
home). If his wife returns home for delivery, he would (for
a time at least) have three hostages in PERUMEN instead
of one.
f.
UFGA-19006 reported a 1964 attempt to get at AMAUTO-1
through his wife's relatives. The consensus at the time was
that AMAUTO-1 is probably immune to this type of approach.
Headquarters, therefore, still opts for a logically developed,
"traditional" recruitment build-up.
3. In line with the above, Headquarters suggests to Madrid
certain lines of action which might be followed in an attempt to
know more about AMAUTO-1. These actions might seem somewhat easier
from our perspective than they actually are in the field, but we
propose them for your consideration.
8. The man handling the new construction work (paragraph 16
of the attachment) should be checked out.
b. The established pattern of lonely automobile trips
outside the capital (see paragraph 22 of the attachment)
might be instructive to follow down. At least, the situation
might offer a chance for approach or for subsequent handling.
c. AMAUTO-1's desire to see more people at home, and
the indication that he discusses important matters at home
becomes doubly interesting with the possibility of a vacant
house next door (see paragraph 18 of the attachment). The
person who owns the apartment building might offer a fruitful
lead.
d. The apparent hostility of the current maid (see para-
graph 24 and 27 of the attachment) might offer further
exploitation.

'AMAUTO/1's desire to affiliate himself with an

might offer a possibility to put an access agent next
to him. The circumstance would be relatively normal, not
calculated to arouse his suspicions. The use of someone
of WOLADY nationality might, in fact, help to allay what
is evidently a tendency AMAUTO/1 has of suspecting provo-
cation.
f. Headquarters would greatly appreciate the oppor-

Orestes Guillermo RUIZ Pérez
DOB: c. 1931
Cuban Minister Plenipotentiary to Spain,
accredited 12 December 1967.
CHRONOLOGY
1. RUIZ probably comes from a humble family in Cuba, because
he lived in a solar (semi-slum area) and began to work when he
was only fourteen years old. This circumstance suggests that he
lacks a formal education. He appears to come from a "revolutionary"
family (his father was identified as a Communist and a leader of
the barbers' union in UFGA-13595, and a brother was identified
as a member of the DSE as of 1964 in UFGA-19006); 2/64 (8-755296)
-
2. In the fifties RUIZ emigrated to the United States,
traveling throughout the cast coast and holding minor jobs. In
1957 he began to work as an apprentice butcher for a Polish-
American named Alexander SAMKO, who had a grocery store on
Flagler Street in Miami. He evidently did so well in attracting
Latin American customers that he soon began to distribute meat in
the area, working for SAMKO (RUIZ seems to be somewhat proud
of this success). He also appears proud of the fact that when
he left Miami in February 1958, he left his brother (same brother?)
a house in North Miami, a brand new car, and over $1,000 in the
bank.
3. Although he did well in the meat business, he traces a
large part of his success to another acquaintance in Miami: an
American of Cuban descent known as Joe LOUIS (or LUIS). Joe
LUIS was an underworld figure who was at that time competing
with the Italians in the bolita (numbers) racket in Tampa. RUIZ
and MOLEON (fnu), another Cuban exile, were each offered $800
a month by LUIS to supervise bolita collections in Miami. (There
is no specific indication that RUIZ took his bolita friend up on.
this offer). Furthermore, LUIS went so far as to offer RUIZ and
MOLEON $5,000 apiece to kill a man named FERNANDEZ (fnu), who was
also involved in the bolita racket in Miami.
4. In February 1957 (note the 1958 date, above; perhaps
an error on RUIZ' part) RUIZ left Miami along with a man named
VILLEGAS (whose first name might be Harry) and three other
members of the 26th of July Movement. They entered Cuba clandes-
tinely. When the revolution triumphed in Cuba, Alexander SAMKO
went to Havana, where he stayed for a week as RUIZ' house guest.
SAMKO offered RUIZ a partnership in the meat business in Miami
if he would return. RUIZ rejected the offer, saying that the
Revolution needed him.

5. RUIZ brags that in 1960 he was one of 18 persons out
of 5,000 who were selected by the Ministry of the Treasury,
where he was working at the time, to take a statistics course
offered by CEPAL. The course, which lasted two years,
included such subjects as mathematics, finance, democracy (?),
and Marxism-Leninism. One of his schoolmates at the time was
Marta ARCOL, now the director of the Museo de Arte in Havana.
(It is interesting to note that in UFGA-13595 RUIZ was.
described as an anti-Communist as of 1960 by a Cuban refugee.
6. UFG-1539 reported RUIZ as Chief of the Department of
Construction Expenses Studies of the Ministry of the Treasury
in 1962, and he was described as a militant Communist. In
1963 he was in Mexico, and UFGA-11065 mentioned him as G-2,
living at Calle Cuenavaca 35, apartment 7. A report from
LITAMIL-9 in 1964 characterized RUIZ as a violent CASTRO
_partisan, and AMBUG-) in 1964 described RUIZ as a CUIS officer.
Presidential Decree 3440 of 4 August 1964 (UFGA-19006) reported
RUIZ as being appointed Vice Minister of Foreign Commerce,
and QUDOZE, has him appointed about that time as chief of the
trade school at MINCEX, a post he held for two years. In 1967
he was appointed charge d'affaires in Madrid vice Francisco Ramon
CALZADILLA.
ON THE JOB
7. There seems little doubt that RUIZ exercise the full
authority that presumably he should have as Minister Pleni-
potentiary. The relations between Cuba and Spain appear to
remain static because of Spain's refusal to appoint a full
Ambassador to Cuba after LOJENDIO was expelled from the island
by CASTRO in 1959. RUIZ is involved in and is kept informed
-on all matters related to Cuban-Spanish relations, including
trade. He does not seem to permit commercial attaches to bypass
him when they submit reports to their respective home offices in
Havana. In addition, RUIZ takes a keen and active interest in
Cubana operations, and he has said that no one may travel to
Havana on Iberia without his permission. He insists that Cuban
officials arriving in Kadrid consult with him before arranging
visits to Spanish officials or factorics. He seems to have
good working relations with Spanish government officials,
because he is always careful to "put all his cards on the table"
in meetings with them. (The tenor of his conversation seems to
emphasize that he likes things this way in all his relations,
personal as well as professional).
8. Little appears concerning RUIZ' unofficial contacts
with other diplomats in Madrid, except that he is close to and
exchanges information with the Algerian Ambassador. (Accord-
ing to current records, this is Ahmed LAIDI, posted to Madrid
on 15 December 1966, living at Calle Tiemblo 3, Ciudad Puerto
de Fierro. Latest desk traces show this person as born 20 April
1934 in Oudja, Morocco, and as of 25 October 1966 to have been

political, economic, and cultural affairs. He is described as

9. RUIZ trics to give the impression that he enjoys the

frequently tells other Cuban diplomats stopping in Madrid that
he makes 90% of the decisions without consulting with 
Havana,
explaining that "this is the reason I am here."
10. Above all, RUIZ directs constant and bitter criticism
against avaña, because of what he terms the incompetence there.
In his opinion, this generalized incompetence will cause CASTRO

Havana is always trying to interfere with the Embassy in

that I'm a fool, but I don't miss anything they do."

RUIZ noted that the Embassy

had accomplished much that was not in the plan, and he intended
to answer that particular criticism in detail.
12. Perhaps the most serious criticism of his activities
came in a coded cable received by the Embassy carly in October
1969. Havana questioned the way that RUIZ was handling the com-

communication directed to Raul. LEON Torres (201-725624) (Under
Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Commerce) and in rather
strong language, RUIZ defended his right to be informed 
and
consulted on the matter, denying that his cable number 521 was
offensive to Joaquin ALVAREZ (Director of Trade with Western
Europe and North America), who was evidently the source of
criticism against RUIZ.
14-00000
SECRET
13.
Evidently, this last piece of criticism upset EUIZ
so much that he was nervous and particularly security-conscious.
Less than a week later he called LEON in Havana and requested
permission to go to Cuba, ostensibly to settle a personal
problem with his son. However, his wife explained to another
person in the Embassy that RUIZ' trip was due to his sick
mother. His trip was probably due to the exceptionally sharp
criticism and RUIZ' desire to clear it up personally.
14. When RUIZ returned to Madrid on 29 October 1969, he
was a changed man, again relaxed and fully confident of him-
self. Nevertheless, be has told close friends that he feels
very lonely in Spain and at times has had the desire simply to
board a plane away from Spain and abandon the Embassy. Ik is
always careful to say he desires to return to Havana, but he
leaves room for the inference that he would rather go somewhere
else. He believes that he is "burned" in Spain. He has said
that when he returns to the island, he will definitely not
return to his Ministry..
SECURITY AND SECURITY-CONSCIOUSNESS
15.
RUIZ seems to be particularly sensitive in the area
of security-consciousness. This attitude can possibly be traces
to an involvement with the DGI in one way or another, but his
background and especially his political views (sec below).
would appear to argue against his affiliation. RUIZ is quick to
warn visiting Cubans against the efforts of what he terms "la
compania, sociedad anciza" to compromise them, even before
they leave Havana, indicating RUIZ' possible belief in the
omnipresence and power of the sociedad anonima. He censors mail
going to and coming from Havana, and lic repeatedly states that
his office is bugged, his telephone is tapped, and that he is
followed quite openly wherever he goes. He attributes this
surveillance to the Seguridad, and he probably ascribes it to
the Spanish. (Note that, despite his "knowledge" that his words
go to hostile surveillance, he still dares to express critical
opinions openly).
16. This security-consciousness is apparently the big
reason he has asked Havana for funds for a new Embassy building,
where he plans to have 3 shielded room free from bugs. He intends
to have Havana send electricians for the job and Cuban personnel
to act as doormen, etc., with the wives of the latter to be his.
char force. He seems fanatic on the subject of not having any
Spanish personnel in the building. (Note that one Sr. VILLARROYA,
of Constructiones Aznar in Madrid, is handling the real estate
operation)
: 17. RUIZ is particularly aware of what he calls" "traps."
He once recalled that he had been asked to dinner by the wife
of a VIP and, after accepting the invitation, was told that a
priest would also attend. He did not attend the dinner,
although it considerably upset his hostess, because he was
afraid of a scandal arranged by the police. He said that he
receives only in the Embassy, because through that door can
enter only those whom he wants to see.

18. Nevertheless, RUIZ has several times mentioned that
he holds his really important conversations at home, and that he
would rather see more people at his home instead of at his
office. (In this connection, it is noted that the house next.
door to his --- Calle Triana 14
which used to be a home for
the aged) is now empty. The owner of the apartment building
where he lives is Ignacio ARTERO, a Spaniard.
19.

RUIZ has even suggested installing a radio transmitter
and speaking in code with Havana. The Cubans are in fact
installing a transmitter on the Canary Islands, but RUIZ,
characteristically keeping his actions correct, has stressed
to the Spanish that Cuba will not use the transmitter for other
than legitimate commercial purposes. RUIZ even offered to allow-
Spanish citizens to operate the station in order to emphasize'
his point.
20. Correct as he generally is in his professional
behavior, RUIZ made what appears to be a mistake in discussing
with members of his staff the possibility of telling Havana that
a Spanish foreign service officer scheduled for duty there (Juan
TORROBA Gomez, cf. OSMA-25692) might be open for recruitment. If·
one recalls RUIZ' constant warnings that his office is bugged by
Seguridad, the discussion about TORROBA clearly exposes him to
action by the Spanish authorities.
21.
RUIZ himself is the target of what appears to be
control by Juan Antonio CURBELO Lemus (201-733544) who is
allegedly the First Secretary in charge of cultural affairs
but who seems to be the "security man" in the Embassy. (We
note that CURBELO's photograph was shown to AMBEDEW-1, who did
not recognize the likeness). RUIZ has complained at least once
that he needs a "real" cultural attache. CURBELO has instructed
the front-desk girl to pass on to him a summary of who sees whom
at the Embassy and for what purpose, including RUIZ' visitors.
(Given RUIZ' near-mania for running his own shop, CURBELO must
indeed exert an acknowledged security control).
22.
Despite security considerations, however, RUIZ appears
addicted to taking automobile jaunts by himself to the interior
of the country. He must have very powerful reasons to do so, for he
is probably exposing himself to attack by Cuban exiles. Given the
reception accorded to Carlos ALFARAS. Armando HART, and Carlos
CHAIN at the Barajas airport in June 1968, RUIZ might be
unnecessarily exposing himself. Hc has not told anyone of
where he goes or what he does, and both his wife and CURBELO
strongly disapprove of his custom.
FAMILY
23. RUIZ wife is Nilda VECIANA, who was reported on in
UFGA-19006. She is probably in her early thirties. She is
pregnant and due to have her fifth (?) child carly in May 1970.
She has had difficulties with her pregnancy because of recurring

14-00000
- 6
fainting spells and overweight. These conditions are being
treated by Dr. HERNANDEZ (fnu) and Dr. MATA (fnu).
24. Nilda is a pleasant woman who has not been known to
quarrel with her husband or express political or religious opinions,
although once she recited the Lord's Prayer by heart in front of
others. A teacher by profession, she handles the bookkeeping at
the Embassy on an informal basis. She appears to have a rather
weak character, judging from the way she handles her boys. Accord-
ing to Severina ORTIZ Gomez, the maid, these are little beasts, who
treat the servants badly, even reviling them with obscenities,
while referring to their mother as "la chula." Nilda does not
permit the boys to be punished.
25.
Nilda goes shopping by herself, and once she even took
a taxi by herself to the airport to meet her husband, even though
CURBELO did not like the idea at all. She seems to get along
well with the wives of other Cubans on the staff.
26. RUIZ' children are:
a. Guillermito. He is the oldest and is now
studying in Havana. There were reports that he was
unhappy the re, and RUIZ asked on 16 October 1969 to go
to Havana to settle a personal problem with Guillermito.
If there were a problem, it seems to have been solved,
because RUIZ on his return quoted Guillermito as being
very happy in his new school. (Some time ago, Mrs. Hector
GALLO Portieles was constantly needling the other women
about not being "revolutionary" enough and took Nilda
RUIZ to task for having her children with her instead of
at school in Cuba. The RUIZ family had brought four of
their children with them, and later the other(s) came
to join them, before the older one returned to school.
RUIZ once told a visitor that Guillermito had been

All four children arc very spoiled and have caused
several maids to leave their jobs. Severina bitterly complains
that the children show no respect for their parents, and that is
the reason Severina gives for her hate for Nilda.
EDUCATION AND CULTURE
28.
Aside from the two-year statistics course taken in
1960, RUIZ appears to lack a solid, formal education, although
he makes up for it by being an avid reader (five newspapers a.
day plus books). He understands and speaks English and French
(fluency unknown) and has undertaken to teach grammar (presumably
Spanish) to the Embassy staff.
29.
RUIZ appears to be sensitive to art, and he frequently
complains about the general lack of culture in Cuba. (This
might indicate that RUIZ considers himself "above" the Revolution).
He shows some of the general inconsistencies of the self-educated.
For example, his vocabulary level is rather low, and he curses
frequently when talking to other male members of the staff. On
the other hand, he seems rather well versed in international
affairs and has a good understanding of international trade. It
is probable that he has read some of the works of José Marti and,
although he dictates letters to his secretary, he types some of
his own reports to Havana.
HEALTH PROBLEMS
30. RUIZ suffers from what his wife has described as a liver
illness (not further specified) for which he takes a medicine
called bilidis. (This may refer simply to the medical words for
"liver disease" Competent, experts here guess that the medicine
is used for anything from chronic constipation to gassiness
and constant eructation because of inadequate digestion of fatty
foods. It is possible that RUIZ suffers from the hard-to-pin-down
mal de foie, which can be found in a high-strung, hard-driving
person. RUIZ evident use of librium (see above) might also
suggest this condition).
31.
Late in 1969 RUIZ was planning to go to Portugal to
rest, following the recommendation of his physician Dr. CAVAS (also
received as CABAS and CALDAS), and whose telephone number appears
to be 276-77-46. There is also a mention of a Dr. PERIU, but his
relationship is indistinct. RUIZ coughs frequently, is used to
cold weather, and was planning to go for his health to the same
Gimnasio as his son, Alejandro.
32. A July 1968 man orandum for the record stated that RUIZ
suffers from a spinal ailment resulting from a fall he had about
12 years ago.
Since then he has had chronic backaches which were
particularly severe during the time that he was in the U.S.,
Haiti, and Santo Domingo. His pains have recurred since he
arrived in Spain. On 3 June 1968 he had a severe attack and was
4-00000
treated by the Embassy's Spanish doctor VILLALANDA (fnu), who.
prescribed cortisone. His condition was diagnosed as incurable,
since it was doubted that the injury to his spine could be
corrected by an operation. RUIZ was further told that the
condition would continue to grow worse, and that within six to
ten years he would have a defective walk. RUIZ planned to send
the diagnosis and X-rays to ROA in Havana, who would pass them to
the Cuban specialist MARTÍNEZ-PAZ for review.
TRAVELS
33. Following are the trips RUIZ is known to have made during
the last quarter of 1969:
-a.. To Bilboa, San Sebastian, and Burgos by car,
on 28 November 1969, returning two days later.
b. To Havana, to settle "a personal problem," on
20 October 1969 via Iberia (first class), returning to
Madrid on 29 October.
c. To London on 14 November for consultations with
Raul LEON Torres, returning two days later by air.
d. To Italy with his family on vacation on 28 December
to pick up an Alfa Romero that he bought for the Embassy,
returning by car and arriving in Madrid on 6 January 1970.
CONTACTS IN MADRID
34. Little is known about RUIZ' contacts in Madrid. Aside
from the Algerian Ambassador (see above), we know about:
a. Pedro RUIZ. A good friend who goes to RUIZ'
home frequently. According to RUIZ, Pedro is quite
influential and is a friend of MASSO(?).
b. Carlos CARRASCO. Another person who calls
RUIZ frequently. In late October or early November 1969
CARRASCO went to New York.
c. Rosendo CANTO (201-749310). CANTO lives at Goya
54, Madrid. His friendship with RUIZ is interesting, given
CANTO's background, because their being together could be
very dangerous for RUIZ unless he were using CANTO for
some reason with the approval of Havana. CANTO wants to go
to Havana for a year, live there for a year, and then join the
Cuban Foreign Service. Referring to CANTO's desire, RUIZ
said on 8 January 1970: "He is a fool"
CHARACTER
35.
Superficially, RUIZ sccms to be an easy-going and rather
simple man who no doubt enjoys the prestige and position he has
and the successes he has had professionally in Spain. He appears
to have a strong character and probably plays the predominant
role in his marriage. He and his wife seem to get along very well
14-00090
High
together, and they are not heard to argue.. On the other hand,
there appear to be very deep inconsistencies in his public
and private behavior. Sometimes he speaks like a man at war
with himself.
36.
A certain degree of racism can be detected in his
constant reference to blacks as "nichts," a disrespectful
Cuban colloquialism roughly comparable with the pejorative
word, "nigger."
37.
RUIZ almost never discusses women with his colleagues,
except for one off moment when he mentioned a girl he knew
in the United States before the Revolution. Perhaps RUIZ wisely
remembers that Nilda also works at the Embassy and refrains
from mentioning women on her account. In any case, he is not
known to be involved in any extramarital affair. (Still, one
wonders about the custom of absenting himself by automobile
into the interior of Spain).
38.
His habits seem to be simple: he likes movies; he
has read Topaz (but made no comment thereon); and he receives
people at his home for cocktails.
POLITICAL AND. I DEOLOGICAL VIEWS
39. Although outwardly a "Revolutionary," RUIZ gives much
more the appearance of a man with moderate political views
struggling to justify to himself the actions of his government,
especially in view of the political and economic realities of
his country. It is possible that his feelings might lie
closer to the theory of the "betrayed revolution" ---but not
for strictly ideological reasons. The incompetence of the
Cuban governmental bureaucracy, for example, has sabotaged the
revolution.
40.
In the first place, RUIZ definitely does not seem
to be a Marxist and consequently he cannot accept the role of
"robot" (his term) required by Party discipline and vertical
structure.
a. On 29 December 1969 he wrote to Telesforo
DIAZ Portillo, a MINREX official: "Revolutionaries
should not be coerced by forms of political control."
"
b. On 11 December 1969 he told a visiting
Agropecuario official from Havana that:
if I
disagree with orders, I question them because I am
not a robot nor do I have the mentality of one. A-s
a human being I express opinions no matter what the
risk that I may have to accept personally."
100000

30 -
C. RUIZ seems to have little compunction in talking
to what he think of as old nequaintances, even though
they may be on the opposite side of the political, fence
from him. He once mentioned how he weat out of his way
to greet a "gusano" on the street because they had been
friends in Havana. The Cuban exile evidently turned away
from him, but RUIZ defended his own action in initiating
the greeting.
41. Aside from the constant criticism of Havana's incompe-
tence, lack of vision, and lack of realism, he is quick to point
out the deficiencies of life in Cuba as reflected in his directive
to his Embassy staff not to celebrate Christmas together, because
there are hungry pcople at home. RUIZ has also said that medici ne
in general is quite backward in Cuba.
42. Although he is probably an athiest (or likes to think
of himself as one), he is known to believe that "religion should
not be considered a handicap for persons trying to return to Cuba."
He does not hide his views of the American people, either, for
he describes Americans as "frank" and "simple". "They treated
me very well," he told Raul LEON Torres in December 1969. On the
other hand, he refers to Latin American diplomats as bootlickers
because they use the English language at parties, and he has
remarked that "capitalism is no good."
43. He seems to have a certain admiration for General
Francisco FRANCO, of whom RUIZ has said: "FRANCO is the only
reason that Spain is not Communist." RUIZ also called FRANCO
"one of the few most brilliant politicians of all time." These
seem like strange words for a man as security-conscious as he.
44.
He appears to be well-informed on international matters.
Some of his views are contradictory at times, but they characterize
him as what might be called an undecided realist:
a. "Cuba is a political power, not a military or
economic power.
b.
"The USSR has neutralized US sea power in the
Mediterranean."
c. "Cuba can destroy Guantanamo whenever it chooses
to do so, although the base has lost its strategic value
to the United States."
d.
"US-China rapproachment should be feared, but
also a Japan-China alliance.
c.
་་
"US power is beginning to crumble, but the
Sovicts are revisionists."
f.
"The Egyptians harm us when they buy sugar from
Cuba and then resell to other countries."

E. "We have to be on the side of the Soviets
for two reasons: first from the military and economic
point of view
; secondly, because, whether right or
wrong, they are on the same side fighting those who
are on the other side."
h. "Cuba has had and now has major discrepancies
with the USSR, China, and the US, but we are on the
side of communism because we are against capitalism."

Cuban Charge d'Affairs Comments on
Czechoslovakian Situation
: OSMA-25789, dated 7 January 1970
1. The following comments of the Cuban Minister to
Spain, Guillermo RUIZ Perez, reflect Cuban thoughts on the
Czechoslovakian situation:
The Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia has been
a disaster; however, criticizing the Soviet action
would mean taking sides with the Americans. A friend
may be criticized in private but publicly be should be
defended. (QUDOZE, 19 November.) The Cubans have to
side with the Soviets for military and economic reasons.
and because, whether right or wrong, they belong to the
same ideological group. Cuba had and still has enormous
discrepancies 
with the Soviet Union, China, and the United
States but weighing the differences Cuba is with Communism
and opposed to Capitalism. (QUDOZE, 3 November.)
2. The above information was obtained from a Sensitive
Source and should be protected as such.

1. Of possible interest to addressees is a translation of
the following letter dictated by Guillermo RUIZ Perez to his
secretary on 26 December 1969. The letter was addressed to a
comrade "OCUZA or LANUZA (fon)" in Havana in response to a confi-
dential note received by RUIZ from Havana.
;
"In relation to your confidential note number
7240 about the Spanish prisoners, Joaquin AUVI Casals,
Lazaro GARRIDO Sanchez and Antonio MARQUEZ Pedraza, whose
release was requested in a note from the Spanish Embassy
in Havana, I would like to tell you the following:
Firstly, Senor Joaquin AUVI Casals was of interest to :
D. Pedro SALVADOR de Vicente; but because of the bad
record and activities of this man, it was understood
that his departure would be denied. I talked to Pedro
SALVADOR about this matter and upon mentioning this
man's background he told me that his interest was due
to a phone call he had received from a friend of his in
Miami. He considers that, given the background in this
case, his friend was supposedly an instrument of "other
interests". Secondly, regarding the other Spaniards,
we have no objection whatsoever to their departing the
country. Without anything of further consequence,....
Station files contain no traces on AUVI, GARRIDO or

An official Spanish service from a source described as
sensitive and usually reliable.
1. On 23 September 1969 the Cuban Minister to Spain,
Guillermo Ruiz Perez, called on Pedro Salvador
de Vicente, the Special Delegate for Latin American Affairs
in the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to discuss the
forthcoming trade negotiations in Cuba During the discussion
Salvador told Ruiz that the one and only question which con-
cerns the Spanish Government is that of Cuban indemnifications
and pensions for Spanish employees, and he asked Ruiz what the

which was confiscated by the Cuban Government.)
that he had no instructions on what he could say, adding that
the claims were numerous and that the paperwork involved was
difficult and required a great deal of time.
2. Salvador told Ruiz that the subject of indemnifica-
tions and pensions must be discussed during the forthcoming.
negotiations, and that the Cuban Government must provide at

did not say what would happen if the Cuban Government failed
to reach some agreement on the question but he implied that
negotiations would be delayed until the Spanish Foreign
Ministry received the Cuban Government's reply to this
question.) (Field Comment: Since the conversation between
Salvador and Ruiz was held before the recent change of the

information on how these changes would affect the question
raised by Salvador or the signing of a new trade agreement
with Cuba. As of 17 November 1969. Salvador was still
Special Delegate for Latin American Affairs.)
3. (Field Comment: Until recently, the indemnifications
and pensions problem had not emerged as a serious factor in
the negotiations for a new trade agreement. There has been
a gradual deterioration of Spanish-Cuban commercial relations
since the conclusion in May of preparatory negotiations for
a new agreement, but this deterioration ostensibly was the
result of a Spanish Government decision to reduce Cuban sugar
imports over the next three years. The Cuban Government
apparently had not considered such decision in its analysis
of Cuban-Spanish commercial relations, and it was quite -
upset when the decision was revealed during the preparatory
negotiations. Some of the problems causing the strain in
Spanish Cuban relations were previously reported in
TDCSDB-315/2470-69, TDCSDB-315/02182-69, TDCSDB-315/03509-69,

Madrid. She reminds him that they had talked with the
Faraguayan Ambassador and former Dominican Ambassador

Comments of AMAUTO-1 on Current Topics of Interest
ACTION REQUIRED REFERENCES
CROSS REFERENCE TO
The following comments of AMAUTO-1 reflect Cuban thoughts
on the 
Czechoslovaquian 
situation, internal Spanish politics,
and the effects of recent changes 
in the Spanish Government
on the impending trade negotiations 
between Spain and Cuba.
a. The Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia has
been 
a disaster; 
however, criticizing the Soviet action
would mean taking sides 
with the Americans.

defended. (QUDOZE, 
19 November.). The Cubans have to
side with the Soviets 
for military and economic reasons
and because, whether 
right or wrong, they belong to the
same ideological camp
. 
Cuba 
had and still has enormous
discrepancies with the Soviet 
Union, China, and the
United States but 
weighing the differences Cuba is with
Communism as opposed to 
Capitalism. (QUDOZE, 3 November.)
b. AMAUTO-1 was asked by his government to report
on the 
new Spanish Government 
which Havana calls "Opus
Dei". To a visiting 
Cuban official he admitted that
he was at a loss to 
understand Spanish politics but
attempted to define them. 
It is not true that the
Spanish 
Government is in the hands of the Opus Dei.
There are some men 
in the government who lean toward the
Opus Dei but there are 
others of a very different leaning
because they come from 
the Falangist ranks. These men
(the Falangists) may go along with the Opus Dei line
because they allow 
themselves to be "carried by the tide"
but they are not of the 
Opus Dei. (QUDOZE, 19 November.)

.c. Concerning the impending trade negotiations
with Spain, in addition to the economic problem the
Cubans are now faced with another impediment which
further delays the negotiations: the recent changes
in the Spanish government. It is difficult at this
time for the Cubans to approach any Spanish official
because of the climate of confusion among them. Most
Spanish officials have no idea as to whether they will
remain in their posts or will be replaced. Therefore,
it is futile for the Cubans to press them for action
on the negotiations. The most they can do is wait
patiently until the situation is normalized. If the
negotiations are not held within the 30-day expiration
period of the agreement, it is possible that the present
agreement can be extended for two months. This would.
be advantageous to the Cubans because during the first
two months of the year they will be able to acquire all
the goods they will need for 1970. (QUDOZE, 19 November).

1. On 7 or 8 December 1989, Subject, who is the
Counselor of the Chilean Embassy in Madrid, invited the
Cuban Charge, Guillermo RUIZ Perez to a luncheon to meet
the wife (not identified by name) of Senator Salvador
ALLENDE who reportedly was passing through Madrid. She
arrived on the evening of 7 or 8 December and was to leave
(destination unknown) on 14 December. TELLO said that
RUIZ should meet ALLENDE's wife. RUIZ commented that in
principal he envisioned no problem in meeting the woman,
but that he would confirm the invitation on 9 December.
TELLO went on to say that he invited a group of people
to the luncheon including Alfonso SASTRE and Fernando RIESTRA,
2. Station traces note that Alfonso SASTRE Salvador
was born on 20 February 1926 in Madrid, and is a graduate
of the University of Madrid in philosophy and letters. He
is a writer, anti-US and pro-Castro who participates in all
types of activities of the Communist "intellectual" elements.
His wife, Genoveva FOREST Tarrat was arrested in May 1982
for participating in demonstrations, refused to pay the fine
and remained incarcerated for 20 days. SASTRE visited Havana
on a number of occasions and reportedly was called to the
Cuban Embassy in Madrid in July 1968 to interview Haydee
SANTAMARIA.

2. After the departure of AHAUTO-2 from AMAUTO-1's

this information was passed to the QUSEQUIN'S. It was decided
that the QUSEQUINS would attempt to recruit the new domestic,
but for unknown reasons, contact was never made. We believe
that there is a new domestic now working in the AMAUTO-1

Director of Consular Affairs (in the Spanish Foreign Ministry)
was actually that of advisor on consular matters but he exercised
no authority. The idea of helping him in his work is apt and
could be carried to the point where some officer like himself
(of similar category) could intimidate him in such a way that
his weakness of character and susceptibility to outside influence
would serve our purposes. There is no doubt that an attack

would bring as an immediate result a greater influence on the

General in San Francisco, late in 1963, prouty December, at the San
Francisco Press Club. At that time, Tello was accompanied by several
attractive young women, one of whom was his daughter, Carmen. Tello
proved to be a gracious, polished diplomatic type and we all hit it
off well together. As a matter of fact, we hit it off so well that Allo
visited my friend's home from time to tire, managed to interest him in
a number of business ventures to be launched in Chile and later in Costa
Rica.
2.
Tello was quite active in the San Francisco creu. Among his official
interests were the sponsoring of a Chile or pro-Chilcan youth group,
and an attempt to organize a group of busintuen able to finance cou-
mercial vents in Chile. Integral pa of his plans were the Alliance
for Proes funding and the recent California-Chile commercial and
cultural prograus.
Vontures were to include the construction of several
hunded housand dwellings in Chilc, a commercial fishing venture, to be
based a ✓ que establishment of a fish meal plant alco at Iquique,
and the acquisition of a huge ranch or finca near Puntarenas in Costa
Rice.

Tello claimed also that
would be a revolution in Chile by November 1964.
he had visited several times with Raúl Castro, and had ect Fidel, all'
within the past year or so. He insisted that the US would recognize Cuba
before the end of 1964. Tello said also that he was on good terms with
important people in both the Soviet and Chinese Communist governments,
and that both nations were anxious to have him as Chile's ambassador,
but that he was not especially anxious to go. Another reference to
Communist China was the possibility that Chile might have, some small
cargo ships built there.
lola pro-com
Tello's pro-Commat and anti-American feelings were ghared with his
daughter, Car who claimed to have been a youth grip leader in the
University of Chile. Another daughter, Patricia Y believe her name is,
was said to be even more intensely anti-US. Either she or her husband
is connected with a Latin American organization, possibly the OAS of
Pan-American Union. Another daughter is married to the director of
personnel in the Fertica plant in Costa Rica.
5. At times, it was clear that Tello's averice transcended his concern for
the poor.
Once when another American suggested that the building of
the houses in Chile would give employment to many more Chilcans if they
avoided use of pre-fab units and pre-cut timbers, etc, Tello was not
interested. He wanted to get in, get as much as possible, and get out
as soon as possible. At times he referred to plans to live in Europe
after he had made a few financial killings.
6. I have details on only one Chilean proposal, this a fish meal operation
known as Cachagua. It was formed within the past year with an authorized
capital of E850 thousand (approximately US$537,500], about half of which
was paid in. The prime investors were said to be Horst Barique Engeman,
Emilio Lannon Martinez, Gaston Pascal Leon, Cristian Casanova Subercaseaux,
and Gonzalvo Subercaseaux Canartu. Its main office is in Santiago; its
plant in Iquique. Somewhere behind the scenes was Tello.
7. Somehow, in a canter I do not pretend to understand, Tello really wanted
an American "front-can" in order to withdraw carnings in excess of what
the law permitted. His planning for an American's participation included
marriage to his oldest daughter, Carmen, who was later involved in a
shooting incident in San Francisco in June 1954, shortly after the
departure of her father to his new post in San Jose, Costa Rica, where
he is now Charge d'Affaires.

The Subsecretary for Diplomitic Affairs of the Colombian Foreign
Office, Dr. Ricardo Arara, informed an Embassy officer on Sept. 12
that the La Republica article was accurate only insofar as it
reported that Ambassador Vargas had returned to Chile. Dr. Annya
said that as far as he was aware Arhassador Vargas had gone to
Santiago to make final arrangements for the visit to Chile of the
Colombian War College, scheduled for September 14 to 29. The Chil-

panied only by his wife. First Secretary Sr. Manuel Tello Troacoco

1. The AMEDITS: have just completed the QUDOZE transcripts
for the period 19 September.. 13 October 1969. This was the
second group of transcripts forwarded the AMEDITS for transla-
tion, per our trial period as mentioned in reference A, in order
to make them more fully useful to different components at Head-
quarters. The take from the QUDOZE operation appears very
interesting. We noted with interest that AMAUTO-1 discusses freely
with his subordinates and privileged visitors subjects of a con-
fidential nature, including matters that have to do with intel-
ligence activities. Some of the discussions offer a number of
operational leads which we can follow-up, such as the medical.
information given on 22 September 1969 in the morning hours.
2. The AMEDITS have suggested that as an aid to help them
translate accurately and possibly more rapidly, they would
appreciate receiving some original tapes in addition to the trans-
cripts on a trial basis. Then when parts of the transcripts are
not understandable to the translator he would have readily aval]-
able reference for replay.
3. With the next transmittal of the next QUDOZE material,
we would appreciate receiving both the transcripts prepared by
the station and the actual tapes covering the same period of
time. The complete package can then be forwarded to the AMEDITS
for their use as mentioned above.

credentials. She alwrys do, she says.
Ruis tells her what she must tolk about at the interview,
about politics in Spain and its reletions with the United
States.- She must have no questioned beforthend, and
even the possible replies. She must britnem odrefully
as if they ward unimportant, but with biblist sense.
Ruiz lins to this that what is of interest is

yet well tied up, all the way to the bone. He says that

The girl came from Cocheslovakia, and she talks about

have bold her a lot about it. She depicts life in Czech slovakia

that people sunk into a state of apathy from which they are not

The 
only people that site, money are the physicians and the nurses,
who 
charge for a visit the equivalent of a worker's monthly salary.

gical evolution and world reduction. No one in Czechoslovakia
wants to go to the USSR. Everybody, especially the students,
wants 
to leave for Austria or Germany. The black market is up

. The definition in very sad.
Fidel's latest speech, published by Frensa Latina, was
distributed through the Embassy, but they got hold of the
copies and destroyed them. They say that leftist publications
praise whatever they want or whatever interests them, and Fidel's
speech was of no interest to them, since they did not chalyze it
thoroughly.
She says that there is a latent revolutionary sentiment
throughout Europe. At the Sorbonne there are some powerful
centers where they compare the performance of the Chinese and
Asiatic outbreaks more than they do the Soviet ones.
This correspondent says that when she gets to Cuba she
is going to visit FIDEL, because there is a trend of distrust
of Cubans throughout Europe, because they think that they receive
Information only through one channel.
Upon hearing these somewhat anti-Soviet remarks on the
part of the correspondent, Ruiz interrupts her and says they
have to be on the side of the Soviets for bwc. reasons: first
from the military and economic point of view, and also because
right or wrong they are on the same side of the fence and must
fight against those on the other side.. Cuba has had, and still
has, great discrepancies with Russia, China, and the United'
States. In the face of all these discrepancies we are on the
side of communism because we are against capitalism.
Ruiz says that in order to find out if you are a communist
you must ask yourself if you agree with distribution of wealth
and 
land, ocultable distribution of production, respect for man,
nationalization of industry. This is what counts.
At the end this girl says that the only truth is that
unfortunately we Cubans cannot live in pesce in any socialist
country. Men like FIDEL and CHE, in a country of seven million
people, going against the whole world all by themselves. You
should see the treatment Fidel gets from the intellectual maga-

as a long-range, in-place recruitment target. Much of this
interest 
is kept alive by the excellent operational reporting
done by Station 
Madrid over the past year, of which references
C and D hereto 
are good examples.
2. Subject's position and total personality recommend
him to us as a high-potential target. He is strongly intel-
lectual and 
emotionally committed to an ideal. At the same
time, be exhibts certain 
vulnerabilities which could be
exploited. We believe, however, that AHAUTO-1 could be
approached only in a classic sense: a rationally developed,
long-range 
recruitment culminating in what would be essen-
tially 
an intellectual and even ideological pitch. This
course 
of action would take time and assets, but we think
he would be eminently worth it.
3. First, his access not only is good now but seems
destined to improve. Secondly, if he were our agent, he
has the wit and the acuity to know what we want and submit
information accurately based on requirements. Lastly, he is
a strong personality who could be counted on to move flexibly
but effectively within the target milieu.

1. On 23 September 1969 AMAUTO-1 called an unidentified
Spanish woman who resided in Cuba for many years before re-
turning to Spain. AMAUTO-1 noted that he visited the Spanish
woman's cousin, identified as Esther CORRIPIO, while he vacationed
in PBRUMEN and found everyone in good health. The unidentified
Spanish woman asked AMAUTO-1 if there was much food available
and the following dialogue began:
AMAUTO-1:
WOMAN:
AMAUTO-1:
Yes, everything is being resolved.
But imagine to be free, one must pay
a high price and the price must be
paid. There is no other way.
What one wants, one must pay.
It is very logical, but look, when one
is a servant to the rich, the servant
usually lives relatively well, but the
servant continues as a servant. However,
when one no longer wants to be a servant
to the rich, one has to begin saving and
the only way there is for the poor to
save is to reduce (the intake) of essential
foods, change the essential and begin
to buy machines and to buy a series of
things (cuestiones) and one day, we will
· become rich together. We can say we are
rich when we have resolved all the problems,
not only material problems, but spiritual,
cultural, that is, when everyone can do
and believe as he likes.

says he is fine.
Cuba gets into your blood. When I
saw Esther she was a little thin, but
was in good health.
2. We think the above is another good example of AMAUTO-1's
passion 
for the good 
life. While he appears patriotic and
openly supports the regime, we continue to believe that he would
prefer a return to the relative freedoms enjoyed by his country-
men before the 
start of the revolution.
