quested any comments the Bureau night be able to make relative to this matter.(

liaison.

For your confidential infornation, however,

intormation has been received at the seat of Government thaisa ClA laisor

confidence and use you as an entree with the RCMP and

other, excellent Bureau

ontacts The recommendation was also specifically made that "due to you

peculiar personality" Horton should be the new Canadian

representative

because of his so called "ability to handle people," meaning of course,

he is expected to cultivate and properly handle you for the benefit of cIA.

It is therefore quite evident that CIA personnel are not only unfairly

judging you, but also have every intention of using you as a "stepping-Stone

for their own designs.

(U)

This infornation is being pointed out to you so that you may be

completely aware of the situation. You should be particularly alert to prevent

being used

as any such "stepping stone" for CIA or Horton. CIA should develop

Its own contacts without depending upon the excellent relationships already

established between the FBI and Canadian

Sificial channels Only that Liaison

necessary for the coordination of domestic and foreign matters is necessary and

it should be most circumspect.
