Reference is made to subparagraph of paragraph 12b. Is there any significance to the word, "Although"? We wonder whether the informant meant to say that there was something unusual in Mrs. Duran reporting her instructions to Oswald when he had continued to remain at the Cuban Consulate. . 7. Refermce is again made to the 2nd subparagraph of . Baragraph l2b. Your letter states that Mrs. Duran told the “Soviet Embassy” that Oswald"knew no one in Cuba’ and that the Soviet official “echoed her statement that the American _ was not known.” It is unclear to us whether this discussion - Involved Oswald's not being known by the Cuban and/or Soviet - officials, or whether it involved Oswald's not knowing anyone in the Soviet and/or Cuban Embassies. 8. Reference is made to paragraph 12c. Was the “atrect conversation" between one of the members of the Soviet Embassy and Oswald a telephone call from Oswald while he was - Lf at the Cuban Embassy, or did the informant mean to say that | Mrs. Duran sent Oswald personally over to the Soviet » Enbasay | - ta ‘contact. one of tha officials. Shere? . .”.. 9. Reference is again made to paragraph 120. Could. 7 you clarify the many references to the "address" referred to 30 frequently in this paragraph? 10, Throughout your entire letter the term "Soviet Fg Consulate” seems ar? be used interchangeably with. the term "Soviet Embassy," Likewise with "Cuban Consulate" and "Cuban Embassy." We assume from this that the Soviet co Consulate and the Soviet Embassy must be the same in Mexico —— i City, or at least im)fite a bs da that the same . ~ must hold true for 2 Ct Cuban Consulate.

' MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Foreign Intelligence aw 53320 27 PN SUBJECT: QUWIN 1. Confirming our conversation of 26 June 1963, I make the following recommendations concerning the further handling and possible disposition of QJWIN: a. I believe the original purpose for which QJWIN was gnnen OVE and at pe “BG resent under- cover assignment ient validity to justify the q yond the termination of tie presen eoleabe or this ‘purpose alone. : hl TED b. QJWIN, in an Rl a competent, usable agent who is capable of operating in certain circles in Europe where we have very few assets. Whether this is of sufficient worth to continue his services depends on the determination of how he can be used either by * the German Station,or by the Austrian Station or by any other KUBARK Bernas a long term unofficial cover agent. He is not being used at the present time. He is being paid but he is on ice as far as any operational assignments are concerned. Cc. It is recommended that the present Chief of Station Luxembourg and RABNEY be consulted by Headquarters for their best recommendations as to the continued use. of QJWIN. After these recommendations are received, I suggest that the German and Austrian stations be consulted for their possible interest in using him. If after these discussions a sensible framework for the operational use of QJWIN can be established, I would recommend we continue him. If not, I would recommend that he be terminated at the time his present contract expires. 2. As far as the ZRRIFLE aspects of this operation which have been covered under the QJWIN authorization for security reasons and with which Fletcher M. KNIGHT is fully familiar as I orally advised you on 26 June 1963, except for one precautionary "life line", aspects of this case have | at been terminated and PTR F ‘perhaps for minor accountings, be con aaa az. project. : ne a 43° 43 Docld: 32389863 ‘Page. 169

As soon as I had heard OswalB’s name, I recalled that as Chief of the 6 Branch I had discussed -- sometime in Summer 1960 -- with the then Chief and Deputy Chief of the 6 Research Section the laydéng on of interview(s) through KUJUMP or other suitable channels. At the oo moment I don't recall if this was discussed while Oswald and his family ... J. alae, were en route to our country of if it was after their arrival. a 2.

The AEOCEAN. 3 case was among the first of these, and we eventually turned © up something like two dozen similar cases, We established links between some of these women and the KGB. KUDESK became interested in the developing trend we had come across. It was partly out of curiosity to learn if Oswald's wife would actually accompany him to our country, partly out of interest in Oswald's own experi d in the U SSR, that we showed operational _ intelligence interest in the, arvey story.

Volume V of the SSC Final Repart conveys an impression of limited effort by CIA in the course of the Warren Commission inquiry. As is noted in other annexes to the present report, CIA did seek and collect information in support of the efforts of the Warren Commission. Additionally, it conducted Studies and submitted special analyses and reports. The following pages list reports and other papers submitted to the FBI (which had primary responsibility for the investigation) - SepOSOET —— PROMIBITED HW 53320 and to the Warren Commission. It is felt that this compilation is appropriate to consideration of the extent of the CIA effort, to the extent that it reveals something of the results of that effort. . | The lists fall into the following sections: E.1- Dissemination to the Intelligence Community E.2 Dissemination of Information to the Warren Commission E.3 Disseminations to the FBI on Rumors and Allegations | E.4 Memoranda to Warren Commi ss fon - PRCE Docld: 32339663 Page 186 003523, 4 COPY.
