Released under the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 (44 Sc 2107 ~ Hote). .~ DATE: 11-14-2017 " - a 2 ot Letter to Legat, Mexico Re: LEE HARVEY OSWALD _ 8 + R ~ CUBA 105-82555 In paragraph 3, page 1, of re memo Mora reportedly spoke of subject's "activities before his trip to the Soviet Union." In paragraph 5, page 1, she spoke of his activities in New Orleans before he went to Russia, . Subject left New Orleans in September, 1959, for Russia after spending a very short period of time there, No information has been developed that he engaged in any subversive activities while in New Orleans at that time, It is possible that although Mora spoke of Oswald's activities before he went to Russia, that what she meant was, before he went to Mexico. This point should be clarified. ; In paragraph 2, page 2, of re memo the question arises as to whether it was Mora, Mora's source or the Americans in Russia who believed that subject could not have undertaken Singly to assassinate President Kennedy. Although Mora is a Mexican citizen, it is possible she will have to be interviewed eventually. Underlying all the information she furnished as set out in re memo, lies the question whether she met with subject while he was in Mexico, / Your continuing investigation of Mora's knowledge of subject should aim at answering the above questions and your next memo should contajn these answers. You should m oo your recommendations atter fimx-is and MEX-19 have been with (4) et Mora as to any additional investigative stéps which should Pe taken, Continue to pursue your investigation vigorously. It is noted re memo is classified "Secret,.'' When this memo is disseminated to the Commission questions may be asked about this classification and, therefore, you should in your next communication to the Bureau relating to Mora, fully detail your reasons for this classification, The Bureau is not questioning the correctness of the classification but merely asking that you set forth fully your reasons for it, rr re rrr arene rent DoclId: 3271840273 Page 3 i .
