Mr.

Walter Elder

Review Staff

Central Intelligence Agency

Langley, Virginia

Dear Walt:

This letter will confirm verbal requests made by. Mr

Dwyer

of the Senate Select Committee staff to Mr. Dan Neschire-

parding materials pertaining to the assassination of President

Kennedy.

1. The Senate Select Committee requests a listing of all Mexico

City Station personnel for the period of September through

December 1963.

The Committee requests this list on an access

basis only, to be retained at the CIA for use by the Committee

staff.

2. The Senate Select Committee requests clarification on what

documents were filed in the

Oswald 201

as of November 22, 1963.

Both Mr. Hartman and Mr. Wall, CI Staff, have stated there were

five documents in the file:

two Department of State Foreign Dis-

patches (FS Dispatch #806 dated May 5, 1961 and FS Dispatch #317.

dated December 12, 1961); one Office of Naval Intelligence memor-

andum (May 26, 1962 from H. T. Hadenberg) ; and two FBI Reports.

Mr. Hartman stated the FBI Reports were redorts of SA John Fain

dated August 30, 1962 and July 3, 1961. Mr. Wall stated the

FBI Reports were

an October 31, 1963 Renort of SA Milton Kaack

and a May 12, 1960 Report of SA John Fain.

3.

(a) Cable traffic from JMWAVE Station to Headquarters fol-

lowing, the President's assassination reveals that IMWAVE's file

contained information on Lee Harvey Oswald.

For example; WAVE 8049

(IN 66/82), November 22, 1963, states that AMSPELLefiles (Gi

neudent: birectorarel of

JMVAVE have background information on

Oswald.

The Senate Select Committee requests access to Cuban

Student Directorate files of JMWAVE that contain information on

Oswald.

CIA HAS NO OBJECTION TO

DECLASSIFICATION AND/OR

RELEASE OF THIS DOCUMENT

AS SANITIZED

(b) The presence of information on Oswald in AMSPELL files

of JMNAVE suggests the possibility that JMvAVe files on other

Cuban exile groups might contain information on Oswald.

The

Senate Select Committee would like to determine if JMWAVF Station

was instructed by Headquarters to review its files for informa-

tion on Oswald and if JMWAVE files

Cuban groups contain any

information about Oswald. The Senate Select Committee requests

access to JMWAVE files on Cuban groups that contain such informa-
