WH/C 66-479 26 OCT «36 - ag MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Western Hemisphere Division , OO , - SUBJECT: Termination of Subsidy te a Manuel ARTIME. Bucga. . . i i. A request for your approval is. contained in. - . . paragraph 8. ‘ae i 2. As you are aware the Agency tinaneiaiay supported t the AMWORLD “unattributable operations” through ARTIME from dune 1963 through April 1965 at a cost of approximately eeven million dollars. 4s of 1 May 1965 CIA with the eoncurrence of the 303 Committee terminated this support. 8. On 8 June 1965, CIA sent a proposal to the 303 Committee for restoration of support to. Manuel ARTIME's autonomous paramilitary group on a smaller scale for a. totally. distinct psychological warfare purpose. This. proposal recommended expenditure of approximately $15, 6600 wonthily distributed ag follows; re! i i | i Rica, Venezuela $ 3,200 a 7 | a Support of MRE officies in U.8., Spain, . Bonduras, Guatemala, ‘Colombia, Costa ~ Publication of TRIDENTE “3,000 Radio Broadcasts. to Cuba | oO ae oo _ 4,200 + ABTIME's travel in Central and eet . South America oe 4,000, Gupport of dependents of killed, . wounded and captured MRE members . — 5,000 600 TOTAL $15,000 Phe 303 Committee approved the above proposal.
14-00000 | | | me eats a a | eens re 2a 4, In September 1965, DC/WH/Cuba agreed to the decision to cut ARTIME's subsidy to $5,000 monthly (estensibly for support of dependents and survivors ef MRR dead, wounded and imprisoned), aa of 1. October 1965. Of the $5,000 monthly aid, $2,000 according to ABTIME was delivered to ‘Father Liorento who in turns transfei.ced the funds through the official Spanish — pouch to Madrid to a member. of the Embassy of Spain in Havana (QUANTUM-51). This official was later declared PRG in Cuba and returned to Spain. : 8. On 4 May 1966, ARTINE was told by his Head- quarters case officer that effective 1 June 1966 the “stipends”. to persons inside Cuba, who were allegedly. receiving it through the Spanish Embassy, would be - terminated. Therefore, effective 1 June 1966, ARTINE's payments from CIA would be cut to $3,000. At this time ARTIME was also advised that strict budgetary. limitations | were now being imposed on all government spending because ef Viet Naz and other commitments and that.it was quite likely that further cuts or the elimination of the renaining $3,000 ronthly subsidy would occur in the not. tee distant future. At that time ARTIME was alee encouraged te seek gainful employment. and to encourage aayous whe was receiving money from him to do likewise. He was also told that the Agency would be willing to assist him in. obtaining. ‘legitimate employment or to help him im any neces@ary @raining to obtain it. . ro 6. Since this date ARTIME has continued to receive the $3,000 monthly subsidy. the majority of which he must - @pend for his own personal expenses as he eontinues to. : @pavel rather frequently in Central America and maintains hia bone in Miami without any other income. Fe ARTIMS's contribution to the Agency's operational ‘effort against Cuba in the past year hes been negligible. _ Wi/Cuba feels that continued payment of the $3,000 aubsidy ig not warranted and can no ionger be justizied. in view ef the present budgeta:y limitation on Cuban operations it ean well be utilized for more significant and hopefully more productive activities. ; @. It ia not believed that termination of the  gemainiug subsidy would require 303 Committee cencurrence but you may wish to discuss this yerbally with che DDP - who ig familiar with the AMWORLD operation. If approval
; is granted to terninate the subsidy without 303 Coumittee oS approval, we would plan to advise the Coordinator of : ‘ : Cuban Affairs for Department of State, Mr. -Robert oe . Stevensen, and Mr. William Bowdiler, Staff Member, National . 4 Security Council (White House assistant), before notifying . i -ARTIVE. This is considered necessary since ARTIME is i likely to try to use Mr. Bowdler or the CCA to press ; CIA not to terminate the subsidy. Your approval is” requested to terminate the $3,000 monthly subsidy to ARTIME effective 3] December 1966. Be : : i Date

Si ared 22 October 1966 Dear Jin: Just a few lines to inform you of ay trip through Latin America: bos ; The meeting with SO'OZA was at “Las ‘'inas", where a public celebration of the Liberal Party was keine held, It was on 4 October 1966. We talked shout the possibility that he would go down in History by forsing a revelutionary governnent, honest, with an indisputatle sociat-planning, [I told him that he did not need money nor power, only international pres- _tige, that he would only acquire that internatienal prestige by giving a moral slap in the face to those in the interna-— tional field who were trving to insinuate that he was just — ene more dictator, lie commented favorably on evervthing that I told him. We talked about the mecting of Presidents and of the possibility that the subject. oc CUBA would be discussed in private, in secret conference, | In Nicaragua I.also received Amado ALVAREZ Tormo, whose re- port I sent with Carl. Since returning to ‘fiami IT have re- ceived a message from ALVAREZ Tormo, in code, using a booklet that he-gave me as key to the code. But honestly, I have not been able to unscranhle or decode what he says. At any rate, I already wrote to him telling hin to explain the code to me clearly. I am sending you the message received, with the booklet that serves as a key, to see if you understand it. I also made contact with the "Chess Player" who is going to Cuba and whom you can use. . we I arrived in Costa Rica on 7 October 1966 in the early morn- ing, by automobile, I stayed at the home of Juan NUREZ Madriz, present Secretary for Organization of the National Liberation — Party. In that house I obtained the papers that I am sending you, on the table of organization of the Party. “On 9 October, Pepe PIGHERES cane to Juan's house to visit me at 12 noon (Costa Rica time). be ned junch together, He analyzed for mo the situation iv Cesta Rica in the following manner: The Government is not abie to govern and will fall into anarchy.

We told ne, “It's that several Liberation groups “; have private arsenals, and ry arsenal is the sparcest.” We - laughed (surely he was talking about Pepe). He told me that he had just finished a landing strip on his fincas located . _ would.make a forced landing on the landing strip to test it. ‘I told him that it was very dangerous to help frank, because. . was no prohlem, "The United States would be the only. ones a ee : ‘SECRET hele the Scvernnent. ile srele to ne very critically ef “eniel COULE? and tald ne. that eresicential antitien hac tlinced hin. le told ne that, . . ; unfertunately, CPUBER paid tee cuch attention to his sveete , heart, (mistress), shese nane was Alcira, ane that that little. one was the ene she had advised hin to he “sete wath Core , . nunier cuyine “fUSEe*s electoral camraicn., Le told se that , § his opinion was that the Little cirl was a Cerrunist, (1 found cet later about this little sirl: Alcira SCELOTTE SP Aansre Lobo, 20 years cf age, smeais Sranish ane understands English, works in Sears Foebucl, telerhene 1915 extensien 933 she is the mistress cf “aniel NoUEr?.)

We is very optinistic about the next elections, I told him what I knew about the. posi-. tion of Chile, that she had been very soft against CASTRO in spite of CASTRO's attacks. - He told me that he was convinced that FREY had spoken with ‘ the Cuban regime about a possible including of Cuba in the OAS again, but that afterwards FRET had repented; and it was for that reason that Fidel attacked him so much. He told me that Enrique HUEPTAS had been to visit him in the . mame of “all the exile movement", to invite hin to a cele- bration in Miami, That the only thing that he was surprised : at was the "extraordinarily anti-Anierican” positicn of that boy.

It is the opinien of the Latin American airlines that Cubana de Aviacién will send each one of these ' ines a bill for everything they have not paid since CASTRO took power. It is to be noted that no company has paid this _. , and that some, like Lanica Airlines, have changed their routes >. $0 as not to pass over Cuba.’ Colonel SANCHEZ says that if - Fidel collects this belated bill, it will mean about a million - ‘dollars for nin, " , 2.
