BOSQUE had a disagreement with MORGAN, a n d

BOSQUE reached the conclusion that MORGAN was lying

and was not going to carry out his counterrevolutionary

plan as he had previously indicated. BOSQUE did not

furnish any additional details concerning this matter,

but said he had no further contact with MORGAN after

that time. BOSQUE did not go into detail, but admitted

that at these two meetings he had been acting on

behalf of General JOSE PEDRAZA.

BOSQUE said that money was subsequently

delivered to WILLIAM ALEXANDER MORGAN, and it was his

belief, though he was not certain, that this money had been

brought up from the Dominican Republic by MANUEL PEREZ

SOSA, described by BOSQUE as an/inspector of Dominican(S)

consulates at the present time.

Concerning this individual, BOSQUE said he

made a trip to the Dominican Republic in April, 195g,

at which time he met PEREZ SOSA through General PEDRAZA. S)

belief that he is actually a Dominican intelligence agent

He denied that PEREZ SOSA has any connection with the S

visit of General PEDRAZA to the United States. He sai

that frankly Ceneral PEDRAZA does not trust PEREZ SOSA (5)

inasmuch as the latter individual drinks too much and

talks too much.

BOSQUE said that MANUEL PEREZ SOSAJcame to (5)

the United States sometime during the latter part of

1959, and rented a house located at 531 Northwest 24th

Avenue, and had telephone number N54-2143.J It was (S)

recently arrived on either March 19 or 20, 1960, and

PEREZ SOSA, on the occasion of this visit, had only been s)

in contact with PEDRAZA for a period of approximately five

mInutes, and for that reason felt that PEREZ SOSA]was(5)

in no way carrying out any activities on behalf of

General PEDRAZA. However, BOSQUE did state that when

(PEREZ SOSA departed, he carried with him several letter (S)

which had been received from Cuba, sent to Miami, Florida,

which, in turn, were then taken to Cuban exiles residing

in the Dominican Republic.

in any other fashion would only expose their families, who

could possibly suffer harm in Cuba.
