A-1 had not mentioned the plan to the case officer. (A-1 was recruited by CIA in Madrid Dec 63. At the time of recruitment he was involved with a group planning to kill CASTRO, a completely extra-CIA affiliation.) a b. MADR 9928 (IN 78595) dated 11 December 1963: The above plan mentioned by A~1 concerned the physical elimination of CASTRO, AMLOUT=-1 ( . : ‘) and AMQUACK-1 ( ). A~l said seven persons were involved in the plan and that they had studied it for eight months. The C/O told A-1 that §&@ did not look with approval on such activities, but he would pass the informatim on/to his supervisors. 7

Dessription: A organization formed in New York City on 22 March 1961 under the guidance of the U.S. Government for the purpose of unifying the various exile groups in the U.S. File smacks of exile disappointment in U.S. Government's policy which seemed to abandon plans to liberate Cuba.
