The "scerch® : method of development was also cemnstrated to A/] as an alternate system. A total of five hours was devoted te this instruction. 2. A/1, who was recruited a short time prior to coming to Paris, was introduced to the idea of using S/w by the undersigned during discussions held in Copenhagen. Although for security pe le consideraticns, he was skeptical at first about using such a means Te of commuication, he was without undue effort convinced that any *. i productive relationship depended upon his being able to communicate with his C/O on a regular basis through. the medium of S/# letters i sent through normal mail channels. It was apparent from his early : bo.. questions that he was unfamiliar with the principles of S/W and clandes- ’ tine commnications in general.

He was generally attentive to the instruction given. How- ever, in keeping with his temperment, he was a little impatient during the preparation of the S/W message itself upon the cover letter, At the end of this session, he demonstrated that he remembered the basic steps in a satisfactory manner, particularly considering that it was his first day in S/W instruction. ; hk. ‘The second period of instruction took place in the same safehouse, lasting about two hours. This session was devoted to a review of the S/v procedures and the preparation by A/l of another practice S/y letter. Pollowing this, A/l was instructed in the development of S/¥ messages, using the liquid developer No. 56538 The seorch system of development was also demonstrated. A/1 was impressed by the simplicity of the liquid developer and the immediate reaction which it produced. The undersigned developed one messaze 3 then 4/1 was allowed to prepare the developer from its dry pill form and to develop a second practice Sfal message for himself, Following the period devoted to s/e cevelopment, a general review of s/a communications was held, the basic points apparently being well-fixed — in 4/1's mind. 5. During the final formal meeting with A/L un 22 August with Growery and the undersigned participating, the latter gave A/1 & general review of all the Sfx procedures which were to be used in his contact with KUBARK. He also was provided with the following items: ; A. Two sheets of S/W carbon paper ( No. 17138) B. Forty-seven pills of developer ( No. 56638 C. One tablet of writing paper provided by TSD and known to be compatible with the carbon sheets. D. 3 No. 2 pescils of French manufacture. E. One ball-pcint pen with water-resistant ink. F. Two accomodation addresses: one in Madrid for regular contact; one in New York City for rapid | emergency contact (see attached S/W data sheet). G. Appropriate indicators (see S/W data sheet) It is noted that A/l did not have a secure accomodation address in PBRUMEN to give us at this time. He was told, however, that it was imperative that he provide one for us by S/W letter within two weeks of his return to PBRUMEN. This he stated he would do, 6. During the last S/W review, A/l was shown a photograph of one of his practice messages which he had prepared. He was quite interested in seeing this, which served to illustrate a number of the training points which had been covered during previous instruction.
