This is a tre- mendously difficult job and will take months, and the Yoreign Office category apparently will present the most difficulty in localizing possible suspects.

Helsinki and Vienna: Since AELADLE was able to furnish names: or identifying information for this category‘! (SMIMPED stated he has about fourteen specific eases thus far which will be given intensive investiga~ tion. he feels it possible that this may result in un- covering three or four agents from the fourteen cases. o 6. GrurPebE) stated that he believes it fortunate that the AELADLE defection occurred at this time be- eause it is bound to have a definite long-term value in the tightening up of British security practices which he felt were very insufficient. He bemoaned the fact that he does not yet have a clear cut case (resulting from the AELADLE material) to table at this time to add further support to the recommendations made by the Badcliffie Committee. When PEL§8 discussed the AKLADLE case with him oa 5 Junedl GHIMPEDD wea still under the impression that SELADLE was refusing to talk. Having been- a, informed by FERNICH that very day, FELS told (GMIMPEDE) that AELADLE was ayain cooperating./( GMIMPEDE) would like at sone time to talk once more with AELADLE to review the informaticn developed so far; in fact, let- him in on the whole investigation in the hope that this will jog his memory and stimulate him to further revelations.
