(LISTED CHARACTER REFERENCE) On 24 October 1968, Ramona Rodriguez,

Housewife, Apartment 4E, 905 East 167th Street, Bronx, New York, was

interviewed in her residence concerning Manuel MARTI.

Source who has known

SUBJECT since 1951 stated substantially as follows:

Source met SUBJECT and HIS parents as neighbors in 1951 when

Source moved into the apartment across from SUBJECT at 905 East 167th Street,

Bronx, New York.

Source became a close friend of SUBJECT'S mother and saw

SUBJECT daily until HIS family moved from the building in 1965. Source

continued to visit SUBJECT'S mother after 1965 and until her death in early

1967. Source had not seen SUBJECT since the funeral of HIS mother in 1967.

Source had no knowledge of SUBJECT's birthplace since HE was

approximately six years of age when they first met. Source knew SUBJECT'S

parents as Manuel and Reyes Marti.

HE has an older brother, Ivan, and a

younger sister, Blanca.

SUBJECT was brought up in a very respectable home,

and HIS parents exercised very strict control over the children. SUBJECT

graduated from high school in Bronx, New York, shortly before HE and HIS

parents moved from the neighborhood, further details unknown. Source had

no knowledge of SUBJECT'S employment.

SUBJECT is a quiet, friendly, serious-minded young man of excellent

character and personal behavior. HE was never known to be adversely

involved with

law enforcement agencies.

HIS parents were very strict and

watchful over the upbringing of SUBJECT and HIS brother and they were not

allowed to roam the streets or participate in any neighborhood gang activi-

ties. Most of SUBJECT'S free time from school was spent at home with HIS

studies, and with HIS hobbies of stamp collection, and HIS pet birds and

fishes..

Source believed that SUBJECT'S father worked in a factory, further

details unknown, and was never known to operate HIS own business.

parents were never heard to speak badly about the United States and its

democratic institutions, and Source was of the opinion that SUBJECT was

brought up as a loyal United States citizen.

SUBJECT is a mature, emotionally

that Houng man, and becatse of lIS home training Source was of the opinion

financially responsible.

SUBJECT was not known to have any?

organizational affiliations, nor to have traveled outside of the United

States.

He is honest, trustworthy and dependable, and has manifested no

undesirable social habits.

Source suggested Luisa Perez, 905 East 167th

Street, Bronx, New York,

as a friend of SUBJECT's family.

She was unable

to suggest other persons in the neighborhood who would have knowledge of

SUBJECT since most of the people presently residing in the apartment building

moved there since SUBJECT moved away in 1965. 43
