ReBuairtel 5/26/64, with which was furnished a é¢opy of a translation of a Mexican Government document furnished to the Bureau by Mexico City airtel of 5/12/64. ReBuairtel called attention to the. reference in the translation to a list of reservations said to be in liew of a passengers’ list of the Transportes Frontera Bus Line. This reservation list mentioned in the translation is the game as the manifest of Transportes Frontera Line (Exhibit D166) on which the name "OSWLD" was manifested in seat Xo. 4. As has been pointed out previously to the Bureau, officials of Transportes Frontera indicate that this list ie utilized both for reservations and for assistance in the accounting office of the company. Mexican Immigration Inspector JOSE MARIO DEL VALLE, who assisted in the preparation of the document which was translated, has advised that there ia no list of passengers related to the Transportes Frontera bus trip on 10/2-3/63 from Mexico City to Nuevo Laredo in addition to the reservation list mentioned.

\ yey wR 5/26/64 vanessa to the Bureau copies of the final official ‘report of the Mexican Government prepared in the Secretariat of Foreign Relations and furnished to the Embassy here. . This airtel pointed out certain discrepancies which existed between this final official report and the letter of 5/6/64 prepared by Acting Secretary. of Gobernacion LUIS ECHEVERRIA, the translation of which letter was furnished with reBuairtel of 5/26/64. The latter instructed the Legat to furnish his views as'to the. course of. action to be taken concerning the dissemination of the translation if the final official report of the Mexican Government differed in substance from the information conta ined 4 (tH letter for ‘which the translation ~ MC 105-3702 was prepared. As was pointed out in Mexico City airtels of 5/12/64 and 5/26/64, neither the final official report of the Mexican Government nor the ECHEVERRIA letter appeared to contain information which had not been previously reported to. the Bureau. No apparent purpose would be served in furnishing the President's Commission with a translation of the ECHEVERRIA letter for use in making a comparison of it with the final: official report of the Mexican Government, which was. forwarded ‘to the Commission through ‘the State Department by the Embassy here, At the same time to do so might result in the compromise of MEX-192, who furnished a copy of the ECHEVERRIA letter to this office on a very confidential basis without the knowledge of ECHEVERRIA. Unless the Bureau perceives some very strong. reason for furnishing the Commission with.a translation of the ECHEVERRIA letter, itis. Pecommended that this not be done, Docld: 327161972 Page 3
