(DEVELOPED CHARACTER REFERENCE)

On 13 November 1968, Richard

H. Franken, Control Supervisor, Data Control Section, Mutual Insurance

Advisory Association, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017, who

resides at 1245 University Avenue, Bronx, New York 10452, was interviewed

at his place of employment concerning Manuel MARTI.

Source who has known

SUBJECT since April 1965 stated substantially as follows:

Source first met SUBJECT in April 1965 when SUBJECT was employed

a utility clerk at MIAA; however, he did not have any close working

contact with SUBJECT until approximately one year later when Source was

assigned to the Data Control Section where SUBJECT was then working as a

Tabulating Machine Operator. Source had daily contact with SUBJECT on the

job, and their contact on the outside was limited to a few occasions when

both Source and SUBJECT worked late and Source gave SUBJECT a drive to HIS

home which was in the same area as Source's. Franken had not seen or heard

from SUBJECT since HE left MIAA for active military service in May 1968.

SUBJECT was single and lived with HIS father and brother, names

unknown, at 1201 University Avenue, Bronx, New York. HIS mother, name

unknown, died during SUBJECT'S employment at MIAA. Source recalled that

SUBJECT'S brother was on active military duty and as a result MARTI was

given a deferment until HIS brother was released from the military service.

SUBJECT was a high school graduate, and had attended college for about eight

credit hours at night while employed at MIAA, further details unknown. Source

had no further knowledge of HIS personal background.

SUBJECT was an excellent and highly competent and dedicated employee,

and HE enjoyed a very good reputation among HIS associates at MIAA. HE is a

very intelligent and ambitious young man, and seemed to devote a lot of HIS

spare time to studies: HIS main hobby was stamp collecting to which HE also

devoted a considerable amount of time. MARTI is honest, trustworthy, mature,

emotionally stable, and of high moral character and personal behavior.

manifested no undesirable personal habits and was not known to be adversely

involved with creditors or law enforcement agencies. Source had no knowledge

concerning SUBJECT'S organizational affiliations or foreign travels, and he

had no reason to doubt or question SUBJECT'S loyalty to the United States since

SUBJECT was never heard to voice any criticism whatever of the United States

government or of the democratic policies of this country. Source was unable to

suggest anyone other than of workers ung would have knowledge of SuBJEct.

Franken highly recommends that MARTI be favorably considered for

a position

of trust and responsibility with the United States Government.
