Wallenmeydr, Research Division, ' Atomic Energy Comnission, Germantown, Maryland, furnished the following information: On September 4, 1963, he was in Moscow, Russia, for a scientific conference. He attended the opera that evening and then returned to the Ukraine Hotel, where he met Louis Jones through a colleague, Dr. Paul Me Daniel. De. He Daniel and Jones were convex >sing at a table and Dr. Wallenmeyer joined them for about fifteen or twenty minutes, during the middle part of their conversation, During this partlof the conversation, Jones mentioned returning to the United States to continue his education. Also during this time, Dr. Mc Daniel asked Jones if he knew he was in trouble with the State Department over his travel to Cuba. Dr. Wallenmeyer's impression was that Jones realized that he was, but he seemed to think it ccuid be cleared up. Dr. Wallenmeyer had no information that Jones had knowledge of United States travel regulations before going to Cuba. Also, he did not know how cr when Jones went to Cuba. He thought Jones had a fairly good technical job in Cuba. He - also thought that Jones sid that he (Jones) had no passport. Dr. Wallenmeyer said he did not pey much attention to Jones! statements. Jones impressed him es a person who was not against what is being done in the United States but who thought what was being done in Cuba was a good thing. He seemed to think he was helping the Cubans and wes helping himself at the same time. He did not talk against the United States, and even mentioned that he wanted to come back to this country. At the same time, he was not disillusicned about what was going on in Cuba. Dr. Wallenmeyer was not sure that he was present when Dr. Mc Daniel asked Jones if he was amemher of the Communist Party. He did have the impression that Jones was not overly concerned that he was in trouble over his travel to Cuba. He said he did not believe that Jones was on a hate campaign against the United States during the portion of the conversation he heard. Mr. Wallenmeyer is willing to testify to. his contact with Jones in Moscow. 3 | NY 105-49813 10/2/63 Germantown, Maryland WFO 105-42974 On at ! | _ File # $A C.

_ FD-302: (Rev. 1-25-60) @*: BUREAU OF. rvesrioage ® Dr. Paul W. Me Daniel, irector, Division of Research, Atomic Energy Commission, Cermantown, Maryland, furnished the following information: Date _ October 196: ja: He was in Moscow during August and September, 1963, for a scientific conference. On September 4, 1963, the night before he left Moscow, he met Louis Henry Jones in the Ukraine Hotel in Moscow. At this hotel one orders coffee at a serving bar, then carries it to any available table. Cn this occasion Jones was occupying a table where Dr. Mc Daniel found an empty seat... : He described Jones as about 28-30 years old; slender face, and large prominent mouth. . Jones has a ‘really out-going, bubb&ing personality. He introduced himself and told Dr. Mc Daniel that he was an American citizen and lived in Havana, Cuba. Dr. Mc Daniel became interested then and talked with Jones for about an hour, starting at 11 p.m., September 4, 1963. Jones said that he had not finished his education and wanted to return to the United States to do so. Although Dr. Mc Daniel cannot recall. the verbatim conversation, there is no question in his mind that Jones was sympathetic to communism. He asked if Jones was a member of the Communist Party. Jones said he was not a member of the Communist Party but was fully sympathetic with the aims and goals of the communist movement. This was almost an exact quote of Jones! response, to Dr. Mc Daniel's recollection, Jones did not say why he was in Moscow. However, he was greeted by a number of Spanish speaking people, mostly women, who treated him with some deference as if he were a guide of some sort for a tour. This, however, was only an impression of Dr. Mc Daniel's and he had no conversation with Jones to verify it. Dr. Me Daniel did not see Jones! wife in Moscow and had the impression that she was a psychologist like him. Jones said he went to Cuba on vacation about the time of the revolution in Cuba. He considers Castro a great man who has done so much for the Cubans that they can never NY 105-49813 on 20/2/63 iat Germantown, Maryland _ File # WFO_10 “He 4 by SA C, EDWIN GLASS, JR Date dictated __ 20/8/63 your agency; it and its contents are not to be distributed outside‘your agar, -ll- - Pps of the FBI and is loaned to Docld: 32567995 Page 15
NY 105 -49813 repay him. Jones described Castro as a humanitarian who does not like violence. ‘When Dr. Mc Daniel asked him about the executions by Castro, Jones defended Castro and explained the executions in this way: during the revolution when the citizens of Cuba caught followers of Batista, Castro told them not to take the law into their own hands but to let the revolution handle those people. If Castro had not done this, thousands would have been) killed. Then, although Castro did not like to do it, he had to execute Some to fulfill his promise to the people. Jones was aware of Dr. Me Daniel's position with | the United States Government, When asked if he did not think he was in trouble with the State Devartment over his travel to Cuba, he said he was sure he was. He said that he exnected to have serious trouble, but said this would be on the conscience of the United States Government and not on his. He made several very Cerceatary remarks about the United States Department of State and the United States Government generally. These remarks alleged that the United States Government lied about Cuba, and about atrocities there and tuok military sveps against Cuba, Jones said that in Cuba, he was working for a lady about thirty-seven years old. He gaid he.is.a.psychologist. iS boss there in Cuba is a fine woman dedicated to the revoiution. Jones said he found it a wonderful opportunity, He has a free reign to conduct researchg§e, _Dr. Mc Daniel asked him why so many people left Cuba. Jones said the Batista Government had a large number _ of exploiters, They knew no other life, They ran Cuba. _ ‘ney were intelligent and important. In the new socialist _ order they just did not fit and they left.. Jones said ¢+his was for the betterment of the Cuban system. He expected the revolution to be a complete success and does not expect many of these pecple to ever return to Cuba. A Docld: 32567993 Page 16
NY 105-49813 Jones said he does not have a passport. He did not say how he left the United States or how he traveled to Cuba, other than to say he went there en a vacation. Dr. Me Daniel asked Jones how he explained having three servants during this revolution. He explained the servants by saying that this was a transition period in the revolution. Jones contended that communism in theory is right. Although Dr. Me Daniel cannet recall Jones' exact woras, he received the impression {= Jones runt plooked upon the revolution in Cuba as the beginning of a great cause. In Dr. Me Daniel's opinion, Jones' attitude toward communism is an attitude one would expect him to have 4f he had been born in Russia and had grown up under communism. Dr. Me Daniel had no information that Jones had knowledge of United States travel regulations when he went to Cuba. - Dr. Mc Daniel is willing to appear and testify to the above information in an administrative or judicial hearing.
