April 1948 Ramparts list but which are vulnerable because they were covertly funded by hitherto unexposed funding instru- ments included ia the Eeseeess list. Annex F shows a copy of the full April 1966 Ramparts list. 7 The 42 former project organizations listed and des- eribed at Annex B which have not previeusly been charged with CIA agseciation in American preas comment fall into five general eategories: a. Foundations and other organiszetions used as witting funding conduits for cevert subsidies to pro- | ject organizations and other operational activities. Sixteen organizations fall into thie category. Eleven of them are multipurpose legitimate foundations .which were recuited by CCS. Four were created or recruited for exclusive use in funding one preject each and one was uged for a one-time travel grant. b. Witting legitimate foundations and organiza- tions used exclusively te provide funding and status cover for singleton agenta. Gix organisations were used in thie way and provided cover for seven agents in various perts of the world. Seme of these organi- gations alse provided one-time support fer unwitting individuals of operational interest. Ge. Preprietary or subsidy project oorgn gations.

14-00000 @®. Eleven unwitting organizations which received grants from project organizations for operational or cover reagons or which cooperated with project organi~ zations. &. We cannot say with complete assurance thet all 5&5 of the apparently innocent organizations on the rts list in fact never had any Agency ties. Our researches have shown that RID indices are often incomplete. We have found operationel use data in CCS files on organizations with no record in RID. The game is true in other cages where infor- mation was available in CA Staff or area divigien files on organizations which drew a biank in BID. It seems likely, however, that any undetected operational interest in the organizations was in the period of the early 1950's and of a marginal nature. 9. In reviewing available information on the listed organizations we attempted to determine whether there was e logical external bagis for Rampartea’ interest in the organi- zations or whether gome form oF internal Agency leak might be involved. Our reviews and analysis show fairly conelu- sively that arts bas been proceeding on the basis of evertly- avai @ information, supplemented by interviews with project personnel: , a. All but three of the 42 terminated but hither- to unexposed project organizations and 24 of the 55 or= ganizations which actually had ne Agency tica are some~ how related to project organizations or funding inastru- mente previously exposed. Some of the organizations made legitimate or covert grants to previously exposed erganigzations, ethers received covert or legitimate grants from previously exposed funding instrumenta or from inzecent foundations thet hed made legitimate grents to exposed organizations, and still others had officers who were nagsotiated with exposed CIA organi- gations. b. Thirty-one innocent orgenizations on the Ramperts list and three of the hitherte a organizations of former interest to the Agency have no such known ties to exposed Agency organizations. Ia moet of these cages, however, the nameq@ of the organizations are similar to those of exposed organ- izations or are of a nature that makes them suspect.

It seemea likely that Ramparts‘ interest in a num- ber of the 42 unexposed project organizations is based on factors unrelated to the actual CIA dealings with them. 11.
