Mr. Berk has now reviewed Luisa Calderon's 201 file and AMMUG/1's Office of Security file, Office of Personnel file, and Volumes One and Two of AMMUG/1's 201 file covering the period 25 April 1964 - October 1965. After a careful review of these materials, it has been determined that CIA-originated reports of 5 May 1964, 6 May «phe 1964, 7 May 1964, 8 May 1964, 11 May 1964, and 19 June 1964, jm Gach based upon AMMUG/1's knowledge, are absent from the | A) materials provided to Mr. Berk.

These twenty-two reels of tape recordings were listed as attachments to the above-referenced CIA dispatch. The actual interviews from which the tape recordings were _ generated were conducted shortly. after AMMUG/L1's defection from the Cuban Intelligence Service. Furthermore, three trans” 7? scripts of tape recorded CIA interviews with AMMUG are ab ‘ rom the fil i : i e. These Transcripts were listed as attachments to a ClA-originated re- | port of 30 April 1964. The actual interviews upon which the transcripts are based were also conducted shortly after AMMUG/1's defection from the Cuban Intelligence Service. . In the case of Luisa Calderon's CIA files, CIA informa- tional reports, cables, and dispatches referenced to in her 201 file have been found to be absent from that file. In addition, a CIA transcript of a telephone conversation in which she par- ticipated on the day of President Kennedy's assassination is absent from her 201 file. The absence of these reports, notes, memoranda, and other material from the AMMUG/1 files and the Luisa Calderon files reviewed to date may be an indication that other related materials have not yet been made available to the Committee for review. The Committee therefore reiterates its request that_all files and index references on Luisa Calderon an AMMUG/1, in- cluding but not limited to production files, operational files, soft files.and subject files, be made available to the Commit- tee as soon as possible. The Committee further requests that AMMUG/1 CIA case W officers Harold Swenson, and Barne Hidalgo, FNU Langosch, and A Daniel Elares be made immediately available for personal inter- “views with Committee staff members.
