SUBJECT: LIROCKET-1 — P-12,244

DATE OF MEETING: 27 June 1967

1. I met Subject from 1300-1430 on 27 June at the Capistrano Restaurant. I paid him $2,000 M.N. as his salary for May and June. The next meeting is set for 25 July at 1300 at the Capistrano.

2. Subject conducted 14 classes at the Soviet Embassy during the reporting period.

6 June

1530-1700 — BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, ROVANCHENKO. Subject asked if KAZANTSEV had gone out of town, as he had told Subject he would probably do. BEDRIN replied without hesitation that KAZANTSEV had gone to Moscow and wouldn't be back until about 15 June.

6 June

1530-1700 — BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, ROVANCHENKO. Toward the end of class, BEDRIN said there were two men who wanted to speak with Subject after class. Following class, two men Subject didn't recognize came in and GONCHARENKO and ROVANCHENKO left. The two men were introduced as Vladimir SOKOLOV and Pavel KOVALEV. BEDRIN explained briefly that they also were interested in taking English lessons, and thereupon left with the comment that he didn't believe he was needed. SOKOLOV was the first of the two to speak, repeated that he and KOVALEV wished to take lessons, and then turned things over to KOVALEV, who, he said, spoke better English than he. KOVALEV proceeded to state that he had served in Washington, D.C. for three years, had served an earlier tour in Mexico, and had been back in Mexico for about a month. (KAZANTSEV later said he and KOVALEV had served in...
Washington at the same time.) At one point KOVALEV referred to SOKOLOV as his "chief." SOKOLOV interjected that he was leaving Mexico "sometime this year" and wanted to brush up on his English in preparation for the 6th year English proficiency test he would have to take when he returned to the USSR. Subject said that on the whole, he got the impression that KOVALEV was replacing SOKOLOV. A schedule of two classes a week, from 1800-1930 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, was agreed upon. One of the two Soviets mentioned that the funds for their lessons would come out of the military department.

1715-1830 — SOKOLOV and KOVALEV asked when Subject would suggest they have their first lesson, and Subject replied that since KAZANTSEV was away, they might as well begin immediately. The Soviets readily agreed. Subject described KOVALEV's English as good. His grammar is a little better than KAZANTSEV's, but he is not quite as fluent as KAZANTSEV. SOKOLOV's English is fairly fair, but he is decidedly behind KOVALEV and KAZANTSEV in both grammar and fluency. Nevertheless, Subject feels SOKOLOV is good enough to be in the same class as KOVALEV.

8 June

1530-1700 — BEDIN, GONCHARENKO, ROYANSHKO.
1700-1830 — KOVALEV and SOKOLOV.

11 June

1530-1700 — BEDIN, GONCHARENKO, ROYANSHKO.
1700-1830 — KOVALEV and SOKOLOV.

15 June

1520-1700 — Subject arrived at the Embassy early. BEDIN came into the Reception Room about 1520 and took Subject to the classroom (in which there has always been a TV set). Three of the guards were sitting around the TV watching the Salazar fight when Subject and BEDIN entered. GONCHARENKO
came in about 1530 and ROMANENKO about 1540. All watched the flight until it ended about 1550, after which the class began.

1700-1830 -- KOVALEV and SOKOLOV.

20 June

1530-1700 -- BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, ROMANENKO.

1700-1800 -- KAZANTSEV. KAZANTSEV began talking about his trip on his own initiative. He said he left Mexico City on 30 May and arrived in Moscow on 3 June. (He did not say when he returned to Mexico.) He gave no reason for the trip, but said he had "several conferences and meetings" in Moscow. Subject interjected that he thought the trip might have had something to do with the Middle East crisis, since it broke out just about the time KAZANTSEV left. KAZANTSEV laughed spontaneously at this idea and replied that what he knew about the Middle East wouldn't do anyone any good. He then went on to say he had spent his first weekend in Moscow with his son, who shortly thereafter left for his summer job in "Siberia." He said he spent the second weekend (10-11 June) with his daughter. The daughter, according to KAZANTSEV, had planned to go "south" for a 2-3 week vacation in early June, but postponed the vacation when she learned her father was coming. (The implication, according to Subject, was that KAZANTSEV's trip came about fairly suddenly.) What KAZANTSEV was most interested in talking about, however, was the fact he had unexpectedly had to take his English proficiency test in Moscow. He consequently set aside the last three days of his stay for the test, which can often take that long. The first day is taken up by an oral test, and if one passes that, he goes on to the written test, which can take up to two days. KAZANTSEV, however, did so well on the oral test that he was exempted from the written test. He said his examiners gave him a "4" (on a 1-5 scale) and would have given him a "5" except for the fact he hadn't read any books in English since his last test. One is supposed to read four or five books a year in English, according
to KAZANTSEV. In any event, KAZANTSEV was very happy with the outcome and with Subject's work in preparing him for the test. In fact, he said that although he had originally started taking lessons from Subject only to prepare for the test, he was so satisfied with his progress that he intended to stay on with Subject despite the fact the test was behind him.

1800-1930 — KOVALEV and SOKOLOV.

22 June

1530-1700 — KAZANTSEV took the first hour and a half. He merely said BEDIN, GONCHARIKO, and ROMANENKO would not attend class that day.

1700-1830 — KOVALEV and SOKOLIN.

3. KOVALEV and SOKOLOV. SOKOLOV is the more simpatico of the two. While KOVALEV can be very pleasant, he seems to have an antagonistic strain and occasionally challenges Subject's teaching with: "That isn't the way we do it in our courses," etc. Sometimes, in fact, the disputes on methods, points of grammar, etc. have become rather heated. On these occasions, SOKOLOV has usually stepped in more or less on Subject's side and cooled things off. At their second meeting, KOVALEV asked Subject directly what his views were on the Middle East crisis. Subject turned the question back on KOVALEV by saying he would frankly be more interested in KOVALEV's ideas, as he was sure KOVALEV was much better informed about the situation than he. KOVALEV backed away this time, claiming he didn't have much information either, but at a later class both he and SOKOLOV parroted the Soviet line about the crisis—Israel was the aggressor, etc. On another occasion when the Middle East was again the topic, Subject referred to (what he recalled as) President Truman's post-World War II proposal to internationalize both the Suez and Panama canals. KOVALEV immediately objected to this idea, although he gave no indication of ever having thought about it before.
4. KOVALEV. Subject said he mentioned KOVALEV and SONCLOV to his wife, and she immediately recalled KOVALEV as one of her students at the Mexican-North American Institute back in the late 50's or early 60's. She told Subject that he had been friendly with a number of people at the Institute (students and teachers). One of these, she recalled, was Bill CASTELAZO, a U.S. citizen who then and still teaches English and Spanish at the Instituto. CASTELAZO is about 35. He was among 20-25 persons who 7 or 8 years ago studied Russian at the Institute when it was taught for a brief time by a Russian woman. Subject's wife told Subject that KOVALEV and CASTELAZO had been very friendly and that KOVALEV had invited him to the Soviet Embassy at least twice. CASTELAZO told Subject's wife that after one of his visits to the Soviet Embassy, he was approached by someone from the American Embassy and asked to inform on the Soviets. CASTELAZO said he was repelled by the idea of being an informer and implied that he hadn't cooperated with the American. Subject said he had not known about CASTELAZO's acquaintance with KOVALEV, but had known that CASTELAZO had studied Russian and had had him to his apartment along with NOVANCHENKO, BERNIN, and DONCHARENO for his 1 July 1966 Batten-Dominion Day party.

5. Subject subsequently mentioned to KOVALEV that his wife remembered having him as a student during his previous tour. Subject also remarked that his wife had mentioned that KOVALEV and his (Subject's) friend CASTELAZO had been friends. KOVALEV replied without any embarrassment that he didn't remember Subject's wife, but did remember CASTELAZO. KOVALEV asked Subject to give CASTELAZO his regards the next time he saw him.

6. Other than a 1960 reference to "Guillermo CASTELAZO" as a 20-33 year old teacher at the Mexican-North American Institute and an author of one of the Institute's text books, there are no Station traces on
the C.I.A. in question. (See 50-6-55/3, C3 of 13 Sept. 1950.)

7. LOGINOV. When Subject was leaving the Embassy on 15 June (about 1835), he met LOGINOV in front of the Reception Room. They talked, chiefly about sports, for about 15 minutes. LOGINOV said skiing and speed skating were two of his favorite sports, and that his greatest sporting interest in Mexico was playing tennis. Subject said that LOGINOV seemed to be an avid sportsman. LOGINOV said that he was going to Moscow on vacation toward the end of July. No reference was made to Subject teaching LOGINOV's son English when the LOGINOVs return from vacation, but Subject assumes this is still LOGINOV's wish.

8. Subject to KAZANTSEV Make Tapes At Embassy Prior to Class. At one of their classes after KAZANTSEV's return from Moscow, Subject and KAZANTSEV discussed Subject's making tapes for use in connection with his three Embassy classes. It was agreed that Subject would come to the Embassy half an hour or so early once a week to make the tapes. He was to begin on 27 June (the day of our meeting). Subject did not yet know where he was to do the recording, whether he would be left alone, etc.

9. Subject said he was considering having another Dominion Day Party on 1 July to which he would invite his Soviet students. I encouraged the idea and told him I'd pick up the tab.

10. The week of 19 June the wife of President DIAZ Ordas called the Director of the Instituto Irlandes and asked if he could recommend a tutor for a nephew of hers. The director replied that the Institute had a good English teacher and that although he was very busy, he would ask him if he would be willing to take on the nephew. The director communicated the above to Subject, and Subject gave the Director a list of the few hours he had free. The director told Subject he would call Mrs. DIAZ Ordas back and would inform Subject if any of the hours were suitable. As of 27 June, Subject hadn't heard further from the Director.
MEMO OF CONVERSATION

27 June 1967

Lella BELAVAL, Visa Officer of U.S. Embassy

1. I talked to Lella today about her contact with the Soviet who brought BAZAROV's passport in for a visa yesterday. She identified the Soviet from a photograph as Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV, and said that he is always the one who comes to the U.S. Embassy for visas. She did not recognize the photograph of Vladislav Sergeyevich KORMUSIKIN, the Vice Consul. Actually, Lella believed that LOGINOV was a Vice Consul, said she always asks for him as such when she has to call the Soviet Embassy.

2. Apparently yesterday was not the first time that LOGINOV has tried to make a date with Lella. She says that he always asks her what she does in her free time, and that she has put him off by saying that she is very busy. Once she asked her whether she spent her free time with other people from the Embassy and was surprised to hear that she usually spends her off hours with non-Embassy friends. Yesterday LOGINOV again asked her what she did in the evenings, and she said she was especially busy now because she has started taking guitar lessons. He mentioned some Soviet dance group that was coming to Mexico in a month or so and said he would like to invite her to go to see them with him. He also told her he was not married. Lella said she did not refuse the invitation outright but said that she did not know whether she would be free when they came or not.

3. I told Lella a few of the facts of Soviet life: that all Soviets have to be married in order to go overseas, that LOGINOV is a KGB officer and was obviously trying to get his foot in the door of the U.S. Embassy through her, that he was undoubtedly disappointed to hear that she did not spend all her free time with other Embassy people, etc. Lella has evidently been unsure about how to react to LOGINOV's advances, has not wanted to be rude to him, and seemed relieved when I suggested that she simply decline his invitations by always being busy. She says she does not like his slick manner at all, and I gather that she has felt uneasy in having to deal with him, but now that someone has told her how to react she will have no problem.

4. Lella mentioned that LOGINOV knows English but is reluctant to use it. He once read off the visa stamped in a passport in perfect English, and he also read a copy of the new visa regulations in English (to himself, but evidently understanding it all). According to the new regulations, Soviets no longer need visas for continuous transit of the U.S. (i.e., on the same flight), but LOGINOV insisted on getting a visa for BAZAROV in spite of this. (This is confirmed in LIENVOY.)

DATE OF MEETING: 15 June 1967

1. I met with Subject at the Del Paseo from 0900 to 1000. The next meeting is for 18 July at 0830 at the same place.

2. On 8 June LOGINOV dropped by Subject's office to leave two tickets for the Bolshoy Ballet performance on 11 June. Subject invited LOGINOV and his wife for dinner and LOGINOV accepted for 13 June. (COMMENT: LIENVOY reports their confirming this date on 12 June). Subject said the tickets were used by his wife and son.

3. The guests on 13 June were LOGINOV and wife, William de Mier (P-5552), manager of KLM in Mexico and Gustavo ORTIZ Herman (P-10971). ORTIZ was Mexico's first Ambassador to Israel and is very pro-Israel. He recently retired from the Mexican Foreign Service. His last job was Ambassador to Chile. He is 57 years old and apparently a good friend of Subject's. Subject invited ORTIZ because he knew that LOGINOV has been interested in public opinion in Mexico about the recent Israel-Arab war. Subject had been only able to give LOGINOV the opinions of Mexican Jews and he wanted LOGINOV to talk to a real Mexican. The deck was slightly loaded since Subject knew that ORTIZ is an Israeli partisan. Subject purposely avoided the subject but it was not long before ORTIZ asked LOGINOV about the Soviet position on the matter. LOGINOV answered with a banality about the USSR only wanting peace. ORTIZ then unloaded on LOGINOV for about half an hour. He told him that he had been in Israel as ambassador and had seen both sides. If the Soviets were interested in peace, why didn't they help the miserable and diseased Arabs with medicine, hospitals, job training, agricultural aid, etc? This is what they need, not tanks and jets. The Soviets are the real aggressors by arming the Arabs and egging them on. And what fools the Soviets are since the Arabs will never learn to operate any equipment, much less sophisticated stuff. Soviet hypocrisy is obvious to everybody. FEDORENKO's performance at the UN was shameful, etc. LOGINOV never answered a word. Subject later reported the above to the Israeli Ambassador who was pleased since ORTIZ is not a Jew and he is sure the above would be reported to Moscow.

4. LOGINOV said he will leave on 23 July for vacation in the USSR. Subject saw Mrs. LOGINOV for the second time. Since her Spanish is extremely limited, she did not participate in general conversation. However, she handled herself well and did not seem in the least ill at ease. In a side conversation she told Subject that they have a fifteen year old daughter who is living with her mother. She said that she has known LOGINOV since the age of six as neighbors in Moscow. Finally, she said that she is a chemical engineer.

5. I asked if Subject had talked to Miriam AVILA Katz (P-581) again about her contacts with our Embassy. He said he hadn't. I asked what advice he had given her. He said that he had told her to be truthful with the Americans and to be careful with LOGINOV.

On the 9 May I went with my wife to the reception given by the ambassador of Checoslovakia on the occasion of his National Day. The party took place in the garden where there were a couple of tables seating about ten persons each. Most of the people seating at the tables were from embassies behind the Iron curtain, or local supporters of the extreme left such as Cordero Amador, the painter Marin-Busqued, the art critic Margarita Nelken, Ruth Rivera etc. The Soviets were there headed by Ammar Bazarov and Boris Kazantsev, present also by the name of Tchmikov, Valentin Loguinov, Tchmikov is a young man, about thirty five, speaks very good Spanish and has a rather nice wife. He invited us to attend the exhibition of a film, a Russian film at the embassy the next day, he also when we were leaving said that we had to go to his house soon and have a real Russian dinner. This kind of invitation is most unusual. I do not remember any other sovietico suggesting such a thing.

In the party there were the usual diplomatic crowd which attends parties of representation behind the Iron Curtain, Max Wery, the Belgian ambassador and his wife, the French ambassador and his wife, the French Counsellor la Tour du Pin and his wife, the architect Lopez Malo who is one of the directors of the Comité Organizador de los Juegos Olímpicos, the Italian ambassador and one of his daughters, the Uruguayan ambassador, the Chilean ambassador and Enrique Cobo del Campo the counsellor of the same embassy, the Cuban ambassador Joaquin Hernandez Armas with whom we talked about Venezuela and told me that it was an stupid thing to accuse a country of trying to invade another country with half a dozen men. The chechs had plenty of beer brought checoslovak-
two quin but mixed it with just as much mexican beer if you were not careful. The Brazilian ambassador was there, Guillermo Gimenez Ramirez the charge of Costa Rica, Gonzalo Almeida Urrutia, the ambassador from Ecuador, from the Foreign Office, Nuñez Zapata and Flores Tejada. I do not remember seeing anybody from the US, but I arrived somewhat late, Kai Somerto the ambassador from Finland was present and so was the mayor general Natahn Aferi from Ghana, the ambassador was most friendly as well as Jan Hant the commercial counsellor and Jiri Švastka the second secretary in charge of the consulate.

Next day we went to the Soviet embassy for the exhibition of a film whose title I think was the Father of the Soldier, a rather childish film but that brought tears to the eyes of some of the embassy wives who attended. There was an small group of people, including some army officers from the Secretary de la Defensa, and Admiral Aznar Cetina, subsecretario de marina, and amiral Otal Briceño, who after a long illness has now some new post in Marina. All the Soviet staff was present, there were two or three cuban including Curvello. There was a change, the doors of the embassy were wide open and there was no question by the people at the outside door, inside Frygov and other fellow received the visitors. There was as usual plenty of vodka, small eats but no caviar, both thing were served before and after the exhibition of the film.

On the 17th of may we went to a reception for the National day of Noruega. They have a beautiful house in Monte Cárpatos which had been built for the embassy along their norwegian style; the new ambassador is a tall gaunt, strange man, there were not many people because there was a diplomatic lunch at Relaciones and
white film of the Olympics to Ram rez Vaequez. No Indian around.
No Greek—either. Chacha Valden, formerly de Lanz Duret, with
her new husband, licenciado Lozano. She is the owner of Universal.
He was nobody until he married, now he is a well known jurist.
Francisco Agüera Cenarro, the director of Revista Internacional,
trying to impress the French ambassador with the fact that he
had printed an editorial on Israel if his magazine, Revista
Internacional has a circulation of about five hundred copies, but
gives Agüera a good ten thousand pesos a month.

It was a fairly good party as far as diplomatic parties
go, but sterile in results. Nobody appeared to worry
very much about the war in the East, and some apple-like the
Paraguayan and the Tobias Eguizabal had the idea that everything
had been prepared in advance by the United States and the URSS.

That there had been a meeting in which the question had been

Loguinov called me to the office to tell me he had tickets
for me and my wife for the Bolshoi ballet for Sunday night. We
had been unable to secure anything at the office.
On Sunday 11 June, Valentin Loguinov was able to obtain for us two good tickets for the Ballet Bolshoi at Bellas Artes and afterwards we went to have something to eat at Lady Baltimore in Madero Street. Very few people were there, which is not surprising in view of the bad quality of their food and poor service. But it was the nearest spot for a quick bite.

Loguinov was very much interested in knowing what my US friends thought about the situation in the Middle East and what they would do about it. He was insistent about the possible help that the US would give to Israel, he said that the US had already given Israel a considerable amount of ammunition and planes, and specially money, the URSS had to give some help to the Arabs in view of the help given to Israel. According to him there was not the slightest doubt that Israel had been the aggressor. The URSS would never consent to any territorial gains by Israel.

During our conversation about food, specially about seafood he let it be known that he had been in Mazatlán several times.

He said that everything which had taken place in the Middle East had been plotted in advance by the US and Israel.

CONTACT REPORT

SUBJECT: LICOZY-5

DATE OF MEETING: 3 June 1967

1. After a long hiatus, I called Subject on ca 14 May and learned he was out of the country. I called him again on 6 June and we made a date for 8 June. The meeting was in the breakfast room of the Del Paseo Hotel from 0810 to 0915. The next meeting is at the same place at 0830 on 15 June.

2. Subject was all excited about the Israel/Arab conflict and we spent the best part of the meeting discussing it.

3. He said that LOGINOV called him on 5 June and pressed for a luncheon date the same day. Subject put him off until 8 June. LOGINOV wanted news on the local Jewish reaction, was everybody behind the Jews, was money being contributed, etc. Subject who was madder than hell about Soviet support of the Arabs gave him hell and to direct questions got the admissions from LOGINOV that the Israelis were acting in self-defense and that the Americans and British were not providing the Israelis air cover. LOGINOV mentioned that he would go to the USSR on home leave in July.

4. On 6 June Miriam AVILA Katz, who is also very excited about the war and who told Subject that she had gone to the Israeli Embassy to volunteer to serve in Israel, told Subject that when she returned home on the evening of 5 June, LOGINOV was waiting for her on the street. His purpose was the same as wanting to see Subject, to pump her on local reactions to the war. She also gave LOGINOV hell.

5. She then told Subject that in Holy Week she had been called to the American Embassy and had been asked about her contact with LOGINOV. She said that she had seen the same American (no name given) about two weeks ago. She then told Subject that LOGINOV had asked her to introduce him to "one of her progressive friends" or "someone in the U.S. Embassy" as a return for the favor of issuing a visa to Dr. Yuriy KUTLER.

6. The above is a capsule account of her relationship with LEVENDERIS. I played innocent until I got the whole story but finally admitted that we had talked to her when he asked, "if it wasn't you, who?" I told him that AVILA had noticed that Subject was in contact with us and had in fact worried that her activities (future) might hurt him which she was definitely against.

7. It appears that AVILA told Subject about us because of LOGINOV's appearance on 5 June and her emotional state about the war. I will discuss this further with Subject at the next meeting, particularly what advice he has or will give her about cooperating with us.

      (P-8235) (P-11712)
      1). On 20 May CHMYKHOV and LOGINOV arrived at BESABER's plant at about 1400. L was driving a brownish Chevy Impala, 34-DA. L was interested in seeing the house that BESABER had located for the Soviets. He said they wanted a house for three, possibly four months (starting 1 June) and could easily spend up to $8,000 MN per month.
      2). BESABER could not leave the plant, but put them in touch with a Sra. LARA who took them around to seven houses, one of which they liked. They returned to BESABER's plant at about 1700, sat around for about an hour, leaving because they said the couriers were coming in that night and they had a lot of work to do.

SUBJECT: Miriam AVILA Katz - P-581

DATE OF MEETING: 11 May 1967

1. My last meeting with Subject was on 23 March, at which time she agreed to provide information on LOGINOV obtained during their normal business contact and any further social contact initiated by him. She was to call me after their next date or any other significant contact she had with him. Since I had not heard from her, I called her at her apartment about 2115 on 11 May. I apologized for calling so late, but said I had just got out of work and had a package for her I had brought back from the States which I wanted to deliver before the contents got stale. Could I drop over that night or perhaps another evening. Subject immediately recognized the "package" as the Benson and Hedges cigarettes I had promised her, gently protested, and then told me she was not feeling well, but the doctor had told her she had to eat, and it so happened she was just going out for a bite when I called. I consequently suggested we have dinner together, which we did from 2145-1215 at the Gondola. Afterwards, we went around the corner to her apartment for a nightcap until 0200.

2. Subject had lost 8 or 10 pounds and looked a bit thin and not as attractive as I had remembered her. She told me she was simply working too hard and not eating and sleeping properly. I had some fear that she might have had some second
thoughts in the seven weeks since she had agreed to cooperate, but it proved unfounded. She this time was relaxed from the start, was very friendly, and seemed to enjoy the opportunity to get out. (She later told me in her apartment that she didn't go out much, liked to spend her evenings at home reading, listening to records, tending to her dwarf trees, etc.) She made it clear from the start that she hadn't changed her mind by warning me half-seriously and half-playfully that I shouldn't think I could "buy" her with gifts. "You've bought me up here," she said, tapping her head with her forefinger. "That's the only way you'll get anywhere with me." Most of the evening was spent in general and (especially back at her apartment) increasingly fuzzy discussion of Israel, the Jews, her job, the Russians "as people," her very humanistic philosophy about life, and I don't exactly remember what else. She is definitely a smart girl, but I think less profound and sophisticated than she tries to appear. Otherwise, she seems to be a very sincere person, and she has given me no reason to doubt or suspect anything she has told me.

3. Contact with LOGINOV. Subject said she hadn't been out with LOGINOV since our last meeting and had had only one face-to-face contact with him. She said this was a little over a month ago (early April) and was occasioned by her efforts to help a client by the name of Dr. Yury KUTTLER get a Soviet visa. She said KUTTLER is a dentist and definitely a Communist sympathizer, if not a Communist. (KUTTLER has T-file 1573.) KUTTLER evidently thought he was liked by the
Russians in return, as he initially told Subject he was expecting an official Soviet invitation to visit the USSR. As it turned out, however, he had a hard time even getting a Soviet visa. Subject finally called LOGINOV herself to try to push things along, but LOGINOV showed no willingness to facilitate things. (LIENVOY has Subject on the phone to LOGINOV on 5 April. After discussing KUTTLER's case, Subject remarked to LOGINOV that she understood that "you (ustedes) must have some reason not to want to give him (KUTTLER) the visa." LOGINOV replied that there were "reasons enough.")

4. A day or two after her telephone conversation with LOGINOV, Subject said she went over to the Soviet Embassy personally to see if she could get anywhere with LOGINOV. LOGINOV received her cordially, and for the first time asked her into his office (she said it was the first office off the outside Reception Room). She again asked LOGINOV to try to speed up the granting of KUTTLER's visa. LOGINOV hemmed and hawed, indicating that he wasn't even sure the visa would be granted. He finally told Subject that look, he had gone to KUTTLER for dental work once, and KUTTLER had charged him much too much. Consequently, he said, he wasn't going to give him a visa. Subject said she could not tell if the dentist bill was the real reason for LOGINOV's negative attitude, but when she persisted, LOGINOV finally relented and the following exchange ensued:
LOGINOV: "All right, Miriam, I'll do it for you (i.e., give KUTLER the visa). But you know, a favor must be repaid by a favor."

Subject: "All right...in that case, let me in the name of the company invite you to dinner."

LOGINOV: "No, Miriam, I don't mean that."

LOGINOV then went on to say that as he had mentioned to her before, he would like her to introduce him to "someone who would be sympathetic to us" (i.e., to the Soviets). LOGINOV emphasized that he realized Subject might not agree with this "someone's" ideas, but stated that he knew Subject was the type of person who "had respect for other people's views."

Subject said that she replied in a casual, almost flippant manner that "well, sure, if she met such a person, she'd introduce them." With this the subject was dropped and Subject left.

5. LICOZY-5. Subject on her own initiative began telling me what a terrific guy her boss is. He according to her, has one of the most winning personalities of anyone she has ever met. At the same time he is extremely intelligent and shrewd.

"If he can't get what he wants through charm, he does it by pure shrewdness." This is why he is such a successful businessman.

In reply to a question about LICOZY-5's background, Subject said he had been born in Poland, was imprisoned by either the Poles or Germans just before or during World War II (she was rather vague on this point, and I confined myself to listening), somehow got out and joined the Russians, taking part in the Soviet invasion of Germany. Somehow he had survived all this, made his way to Mexico, where he arrived penniless, and now
must have a small fortune in the bank. He vividly remembers his former hardships, however, is a very generous and humane person, and every year sends clothes to people in Poland and Russia. He also has a very strong feeling for Israel. Obviously he couldn't have survived a life like this if he weren't shrewd. He has no love for the Russians, but was not above joining them to assure his own survival in World War II and can be agreeable enough toward them to retain their travel business. Subject gave absolutely no indication that she had said anything to LICOZY-5 about me.

6. The conversation was the most relaxed as well as the funniest back at Subject's apartment, where we finished a bottle of vodka LOGINOV had given LICOZY-5 and LICOZY-5 had given her. Back on the subject of LOGINOV, Subject said she "supposed" he had tried to cultivate a lot of girls like herself..."hadn't her?" (I had told Subject at our last meeting that young women were among LOGINOV's favorite targets, but hadn't been able to tell what effect this "revolution" had on her. Now it appeared that it had hit home and that it had wounded her pride to think he not only had had ulterior motives in dating her, but had dated other girls the same way.) I didn't reply directly, but said something about LOGINOV being as smooth as they come. Subject wasn't satisfied with this, however, and pressed me: "He has tried the same thing with other girls, hasn't he?"

"Yes, Miriam, several," I finally said. This seemed to satisfy her.

7. Shortly thereafter, I asked Subject if LOGINOV were

Después WELCHER comenta con LOGINOV que el estuvo en el año de 1945 cuando la caída de Berlín y conoce un poco la historia de la victoria rusa sobre los nazi-fascistas. LOGINOV cambia de tema y pregunta si tiene algunas visas pendientes, WELCHER dice que tiene algunos pasaportes que pasar a recoger y sirve que lo invita a su casa.

480: Subject (giving name as WILSHER), an American asks for LOGINOV and tells him that he just wanted to be sure that LOGINOV would be in as he had called yesterday (9 May) and he had not been in. LOGINOV tells WILSHER that 9 May is a Holiday and commemorates the Russian Victory in Berlin, Germany on 9 May 1945. WILSHER says he remembers that as he was in the war in that area at the time and remembers that. WILSHER wants to go by to see LOGINOV to pick up some passports. WILSHER also would like to invite LOGINOV out to his house. LOGINOV says he can come by to pick up the visas.

In LARK's account of his first two meetings with LOGUNOV. It appears to me that at the second meeting, 26 April, he moved in a lot faster than is customary with the Sovs. For this reason I wonder if possibly the Soviets are deliberately trying to get a look at him independent from LOGUNOV, who may well have been reporting regularly his meetings with LARK.

He understands he is not to be dangled in front of Sovs, and I told him that after today's tennis match, he is to make himself unavailable for two or three weeks for tennis (or the movies) and see what kind of initiative L is prepared to take.

This would, however, allow us to plant an American girl at the French Club if we wished and play her into L's hands. Will discuss with Paul when he returns.

I agree.

CC: Val LOGUNOV (P. dme. ch)
VALENTIN S. LOGUNOV

1. Contact. First met April 22, 1957. He asked my wife and I if he and an American born Mexican friend could join us in doubles. Saturdays the tennis courts are filled. I was reluctant at first until I realized his accent and suspected that he was one of the persons for whom I have pictures on file.

2. HEILTY. Counsel of the USSR embassy.

3. Susceptibility. Eager to visit the U.S. Possibly interested in the material things of life, possibly overly interested in girls. Seems convinced of the value of Marxism.

4. Personality. Very friendly and direct. Wishes his embassy enjoyed club privileges such as the U.S. at the Reform Club. He likes caviar, vodka, and drinks several beers quickly. He is a little demonstrative in gestures of head and hands. It is too early to evaluate his gestures with his attitudes or the topics being discussed.

5. English. He is eager to improve his English, which he speaks rather poorly. His son Dally speaks only Russian, no Spanish or English.

6. Dina. His daughter, 14, is in an English school in Moscow.

7. Chess. Plays, but not a fan.

8. Athletics. He plays excellent tennis for someone who claims he has played less than a year and never more than once a week. He has the face, build, and carriage of a trained athlete. He has the build of a boxer or wrestler. He has the grace of a natural athlete. I would guess him to be unusually strong. He boxed when younger, plays basketball and volleyball.

9. Spanish. Speaks good Spanish. Studied for one year in Moscow.

10. Desire for contact. Val proposed that we meet regularly for tennis at 1000 hours every Wednesday. He asked if it bothered me to be seen with a Soviet. He said many U.S. diplomats seemed to shun him. He also suggested that we not limit our contacts to tennis but that we go to a movie sometime with our wives.
11. **Dina-data.** Apparently has limited income. He has no servant, no TV, no telephone.

12. **Leonova.** Val seemed somewhat cool about the Leonova. Naturally he knows them, but doesn't seem to consider them friends.

13. **Personality.** Does not smoke. He did before.

14. **U.S. Trip.** Val is going to Moscow in July. He wants to spend 2 to 3 days in New York. He said he had read much about New York but wanted to see it for himself.

April 23, 1967, P.M.

1. **Contact.** Upon leaving the club, we saw and greeted Val at poolside watching his son swim. He reminded me about our Wednesday date.

April 26, 1967, 3:00 hours

1. **Contact.** Our tennis date.

2. **Information.**

   A. **By accident.** Val asked if I had occasion to go to the U.S. embassy and if I knew anyone in the embassy. I answered no to both.

   B. **FBI.** Val was still concerned about my innocence and lack of fear in being seen with a Soviet. I joked about not seeing any FBI in the area. He blushed and said he really knew that there were very many FBI agents here.

   C. **Embassy telephone.** Val requested that I not use his embassy phone number on his calling card. He explained that he is all over the embassy and that it is difficult to locate him.

   D. **American girls.** Val asked me if I knew any American girls here. He suggested I bring two for our tennis date. He wants to meet U.S. girls to practice his English. He said that in one year here he has failed
to make a friend of any U.S. girls. He did pay one girl to give him lessons, but he felt she lacked background in grammar. I kidded him and implied that he was looking for something more than English lessons and that Mexican girls struck me as being far sexier. He accepted the remark that his interests in girls was more broad than just language training, but he insisted on U.S. girls.

E. Svoboda defection. Val said that the Svoboda defection bothered him. He feels the U.S. bought Svoboda, that she is crazy and that her defection will hurt U.S.-USSR relations. I offered to be bought by the USSR to balance the defections. He said I wasn't worth anything to the USSR.

F. Thing. Val is going out of town this weekend. He was in Acapulco recently.

G. From club. Many people greeted Val at the club.

H. Embassy holidays. Val said the embassy would be closed May 1-4 and that no receptions were planned. This contradicts Nick.

3. Susceptibility. Nick is a U.S.-Viet. He believes that U.S. politics are in the hands of 16 men, the Rockefellers, etc. These men make fortunes off military contracts and want the war to continue. He claims that Viet-Nam is a civil war fostered by the U.S. The U.S. cannot win because the U.S. has formed an artificial barrier dividing two people. I suggested that it was not unlike Germany which is two people divided. He seemed annoyed at the comparison and tried to explain it in complex terms which I chose not to debate. I told him politics discouraged me since I knew from history that the actions of today are governed by secret agreements which we will not be privileged to learn of for another 50 or 100 years. Val hastened to say that he did not insist on talking about politics. If at any time I should like to discuss politics he is at my disposal, but is willing to discuss anything at all.

4. Houston. Val has always wanted to visit Houston. He regrets the U.S. restrictions on travel there. He supposes the U.S. has any secrets there to hide. I said that he was obviously a dangerous person.

5. Girl-friend. Val spoke of his girl-friend in Moscow whose sister is dying of cancer. He used the word "girl-friend," but his English might be weak here. He might have meant a female acquaintance of his wife and him.
6. "Dialectics". Dialectics is the law, according to Val, which proves that the U.S. cannot win in Viet-Nam—a people defending its own land against invaders.

5. Personality. Val plays better tennis than I. He drank three beers after our tennis. It was he who insisted we go to the bar after tennis. He told several jokes, some silly dirty, some fairly good. He will get me a copy of Soviet Life which discussed Soviet tennis. He paid for the ball-boys and for the drinks. His investment was about 16 pesos.

6. Mio-data. His wife name is Alexandra. She is bothered by the altitude. He drives a green Chevy, 1961. His wife speaks little Spanish or English, and some French. He is third secretary in charge of visas to the USSR.

OUTPOST

1. Trying to recruit U.S. secretary. I would guess that Val is trying to state the requirements for his U.S. girlfriend in such a way as to exclude all but secretaries at the U.S. embassy. He wants someone with culture, good knowledge of the language. He did not deny, nor confirm, that his interests might be amorous, but he rejected the idea of anyone but a U.S. type.

April 27, 1967. Telephone

1. Movies cancelled. Val had suggested that we go to the movies together. Then he learned that my wife enjoys Soviet movies. I cited several we had seen. He suggested that we all see the movie now at the Versailles. We agreed. He then added saying his wife was sick. Suggested we wait until next week. Reminded me of our tennis date next Wednesday.

May 2, 1967.

1. Contact. I played tennis with a client. My wife played with an instructor. She mentioned to me that while we were still playing she saw Val who had dropped off his wife, another woman and Dainty. Val was very friendly, but neglected to introduce his wife or her friend. The wife nodded. On leaving the club Val was returning. We spoke for several seconds confirming our date for Wednesday. He made no effort to introduce the man with him.

No specific information has been received concerning the travel of the individuals mentioned in referenced letter.

Reliable sources, including Vice Consul Richard Booth, American Consulate, Veracruz, have advised that Mexican authorities are exercising strict control over visits to Soviet vessels and trips ashore by members of the crews. Loginov recently met Booth at Lopez Hormazos, shipping agents, and asked Booth if he could do something about the refusal of Mexican officials to permit crew members to come ashore.

You will be advised when additional information is received concerning this matter.

4. AELITE: Subject reported that AELITE was in the store from 1200 to 1815 on 14 April. AELITE told him that he would come to Subject's home on Sunday, 23 April, for dinner.

Kodak to give English lessons. It was agreed they'd discuss the matter further when Subject (not to be left out of a good thing) visited TROCONIS at Kodak to take advantage of that 30-40% discount. Subject even wanted to get me some film at these fabulous prices, but I said I didn't need any at the moment. I did say, however, that any relationship that developed between TROCONIS and the Soviets would naturally be of interest to us and I'd like to have Subject remain alert to anything he heard from either the Soviets or TROCONIS. Subject said he would.

LOGINOV. As previously reported, Subject has seen LOGINOV on numerous occasions on the Embassy grounds and in the first office off the Reception Room. They usually exchange greetings in English. On 30 March, LOGINOV came up to Subject in the Reception Room and said that he'd like to speak to Subject about English lessons for his 8-year-old son. Subject said fine, and it was agreed Subject would drop into LOGINOV's office (i.e., off the Reception Room) when he was through with his classes that afternoon. When Subject returned about 1830, however, LOGINOV was just getting ready to leave and it was agreed they'd try to get together another time. They finally did so on 11 April. Subject went to LOGINOV's office about 1830 and stayed 15 or 20 minutes. LOGINOV in a very relaxed and casual manner, explained that he had an 8-year-old son whom he wanted to learn English. He said the boy knew no English and very little Spanish. He stated that they were going to Moscow on vacation in July and would be back in August, and he consequently didn't want to begin the
lessons until they returned, but he wanted to tentatively explore the matter with Subject now. He stated—in English—that he would like Subject "to go to teach" the boy, the implication being, according to Subject, that the lessons were to be given at LOGINOV's home. If Subject couldn't give the boy lessons when it came time, LOGINOV said he hoped Subject would be able to recommend someone else. Subject said he'd be happy to teach the boy if he had time, but that it was of course too early to know whether he would be able to fit him into his schedule in August. LOGINOV said he understood and they could talk in specifics in August. LOGINOV added only that he planned to pick up a special text (or set of texts) for teaching children English when he was in Moscow.

5. Subject said that LOGINOV had a pile of perhaps 30-35 passports on his desk on 11 April. Subject commented on LOGINOV's apparently heavy work load, and LOGINOV replied casually: "Well, you know there are a lot of people who want to visit the Soviet Union." He continued that most of the passports on his desk were Mexican, but "several" were American. He then began shuffling through the pile until he came to one belonging to an American girl. He opened the passport to her picture and showed it to Subject as an illustration. Subject said he couldn't make out the name, but the picture was of a good-looking, blondish girl who appeared to be 23 or 24 years old. This was the only passport LOGINOV showed Subject, and the conversational topic was thereupon dropped. At the end of the conversation, LOGINOV stated that he certainly would appreciate it if Subject could teach his son and he'd
get together again with Subject in August.

6. I asked Subject if he thought he would have time to teach the boy. Subject said it was impossible to tell, but he could probably make time if we considered it important enough. I told Subject there was a good chance we would and in any case not to give LOGINOV a negative answer before consulting me. I explained that LOGINOV was KGB and one of the most able men in the Embassy, and warned Subject to be on his toes in his relations with him.

7. Subject conducted 11 classes at the Soviet Embassy during the reporting period.

28 March
1545-1700 -- BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, ROMANCHENKO
1700-1815 -- KAZANTSEV. BAZAROV and his wife were supposed to have their first class from 1700-1830, but KAZANTSEV said the Ambassador was too busy. No mention was made of his wife. (The BAZAROV classes are scheduled for Tuesdays and Fridays from 1700-1830. Classes for KAZANTSEV, BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, and ROMANCHENKO are scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays.)

30 March
1545-1700 -- BEDRIN, GONCHARENKO, ROMANCHENKO
1700-1800 -- KAZANTSEV. KAZANTSEV said that BAZAROV expected to be tied up with the Soviet Petroleum Congress delegation and probably would not be able to make his 1700-1830 class on Friday, the 31st. If not, KAZANTSEV said, GONCHARENKO would use the time, since he was somewhat behind BEDRIN and ROMANCHENKO.

DATE OF MEETING: 10 April 1967

1. I met Subject at his office from 1845 to 1915 on 10 April 1967. My purpose was to see if he knew Herbert Adolf Pelka (P-11712). Subject said that he didn't know either Pelka or the two German witnesses to his marriage. However he does have a friend, a secretary at Telefunken where Pelka works. He will check this girl and elicit information on Pelka.

2. Subject reported that he had noticed that Ralph Wiegandt has become quite friendly at the French Club as a tennis partner of Loginov. (COMMENT: Per Liebwy Wiegandt and wife invited Loginov to dinner in March 1967). Wiegandt is a German who came to Mexico after WW II. He formerly worked for Rieboldt Chemical in Germany. His wife is from a well-known German-Mexican family from Guadalajara, née Bahnken. His father is a Dr. of chemistry from Stuttgart who recently came to Mexico. Wiegandt owns or has a controlling interest in Barnices Aislantes, S.A., located at Avenida Tolteca 176. This company manufactures plastic foam insulating materials. He lives in Coyocacan in a house which he recently had built, Europa 26. Subject dislikes Wiegandt whom he describes as a pushy, ambitious businessman. The implication is that he is unscrupulous and would do anything for a buck. Subject doesn't know anything about his politics. Subject will obtain more background information on him.

CONTACT REPORT

SUBJECT: MIRIAM AVILA KATZ

DATE OF MEETING: 23 March 1967 (La Pergola Restaurant, 1100-1615)

1. Subject works at Mundos Tours, where she is in charge of travel to the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. In this job, she deals with LOGINOV on visa matters. However, as far back as June 1966, LIENVOY indicated the existence of something more than simply a business relationship between them. Then in January 1967, Paul Dillon elicited from LICOZY-5 the information that Subject definitely had a social relationship with LOGINOV, as well as some basic biographic data: she was about 25 or 26 years old, a Mexican citizen with a Mexican father and "Jewish" mother, intelligent, definitely not pro-Soviet, and had gone to college for two years in the United States. The problem in arranging a meeting with her was to do so in such a way that she would be either disinclined or unable to say anything to LICOZY-5 or anyone else about the meeting before it took place. It was hoped that at the meeting she could be persuaded to keep the contact to herself.

2. Learning on 23 March that Mundos Tours was closed that day and that LICOZY-5 was out of town, I called Subject at her apartment that morning about 1115. I identified myself as an officer at the American Embassy, stated there was a matter on which I thought she might be able to be of some help to the Embassy, and asked if she by any chance were free to have lunch with me that day, or, if not, to call me sometime later.

Copies: P-117/2 P-27/2
If we could arrange something else. Subject professed dismay, that the American Embassy even knew she existed, let alone that she could possibly be of any help to the Embassy. She then became very defensive and only reluctantly agreed to meet me for lunch at the Fergola Restaurant at 11:00. The Fergola is just a few blocks from her apartment.

3. Subject was waiting for me in front of the restaurant when I arrived a couple of minutes before the hour. I found a trim, stylishly dressed young woman with glasses and long, dark hair pulled straight back from her forehead. The glasses, exposed forehead, and hair style gave her a sophisticated look which turned out to perfectly express her personality. She did not at first strike me as particularly attractive, but this was probably because she was tensed up to the point that she was pale and expressionless and actually trembled slightly when we first spoke. I later found her, especially when she took off her glasses, to be quite attractive, and it is reasonable to assume that LOGINOV is attracted by more than her personality.

4. The first 15 minutes were tough going. Subject was defensive to the point of hostility and totally unresponsive to efforts to break through to her on a personal level. Fortunately, she agreed to a drink before asking flatly what it was I wanted. I replied directly but in a friendly manner that through routine investigation, it had come to our attention that she had a social relationship with Valentin LOGINOV. I continued that while her personal life normally wouldn't be of any concern to the American Embassy, the fact was that the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City was a major base for espionage and subversion against both
Mexico and the United States and that LOGINOV was one of the Soviets' most able and active intelligence officers. One of the areas where he was most active, I continued, was in establishing relationships with young women like herself. For this purpose, I said, he used various lines, alternatively telling girls he was unmarried, divorced, or that his wife was in the Soviet Union. (This brought the first expression of any kind from Subject, who smiled faintly when I mentioned his using the line that his wife was in the USSR. According to LICOZY-5, this is what LOGINOV had told Subject.) Encouraged by the fact that Subject was at least listening, I went further into the seriousness of the Soviet presence in Mexico, hitting hard the fact that the Soviets threatened the security of both the U.S. and Mexico, individually and collectively. When I finished, I told Subject that I was telling her all this both so that she would know whom she was dealing with in LOGINOV and because I frankly hoped that understanding the situation, she would be willing to discuss LOGINOV with me.

5. To my disappointment, Subject replied with undiminished defensiveness that all right, she had gone out with LOGINOV a few times. Because of her job as head of East European travel at Mundo Tours, she had met and had to deal with LOGINOV on visa matters. One day he had casually asked if she were free that night and had invited her out. He had always been helpful to her and she felt it was good business to accept the invitation. In all, she had gone out with him "three or four times"—usually to dinner, the movies, a coffee nightcap, and then "always
straight home." She admittedly enjoyed his company. She considered herself "an intelligent person," and wouldn't go out with just anybody. He too had to be intelligent and had to be an enjoyable companion. LOGINOV fit this bill. He was "extremely intelligent," very considerate, an interesting conversationalist, completely unlike the usual ill-mannered, boorish Soviet. But that's all there was to their relationship. That's absolutely all there was to it. They never discussed politics, and even if LOGINOV wanted to do so, she'd refuse, because she had absolutely no interest in politics. She had her own life to lead, and what one side said made no more dent in her than what the other side said. Reflecting for a moment on the above, Subject then added almost disgustedly that when she began seeing LOGINOV she had more or less expected that her name would wind up in the American Embassy's files.

6. Subject said all of the above as though she were on the stand and showed no intention of volunteering any more. I consequently felt there was not much more I could do with her and that I had foreclosed any possibilities there might have been with the wrong approach, whatever the right one may have been. Moreover, at this moment, a well-dressed Mexican who looked to be in his early 30's came up to the table, greeted Subject, and invited himself to sit down. Subject, apparently as surprised as I, introduced him as Alejandro ALVAREZ (no Station traces) of ALVAREZ AUTOMOTRIZ, a local firm which makes springs for Volkswagens. Subject told me later that his father owns the business. Alejandro, according to Subject, had once been her professor in an accounting course at business school.
here in Mexico City. Subject also said that Alejandro and his firm were good customers of Mundos Tours, and that Alejandro had in fact just recently returned from a three week trip to Germany. He spoke some English.

7. The appearance of ALVAREZ, who by now was ordering his first of two martinis, seemed to end any remaining chances of getting anywhere with the girl. As it worked out, however, his appearance had just the opposite effect, because it provided more than an hour of conversation on an increasingly friendly and personal level. By her second drink, Subject was even managing a few laughs. Eventually we got onto the subject of Israel, which, thanks to the information supplied by LICOZY-5, I knew she had visited and had become romantically involved with, she herself being half Jewish. I expressed considerable interest in her trip and Israel in general, and she seemed delighted to tell me about both. It then turned out that her mother—who Subject said is a U.S. citizen—had lived in Moldavia, had told her daughter vivid stories of pogroms carried out by the Russians against the Jews, and had fled Romania before the invading Russians (evidently during World War II.) The fact that I had been in Romania and Moldavia was good for another ten minutes of conversation and seemed to impress Subject far beyond its worth. In any event, by the time ALVAREZ left, Subject and I were on a first name basis and she was telling me how glad she was she had met me—all of which I attribute to luck (ALVAREZ, who even quietly paid the check when leaving) and dubonnet cocktails.
8. During the above conversation, we also discussed the United States, including President Kennedy, whom both Subject and ALVAREZ claimed greatly to have admired, and Subject's experience in the U.S., where she attended Kent State University in Ohio. She stated at this time that she regarded the U.S. as a second home. She also expressed love for Mexico and together with ALVAREZ, took pride in pointing to Mexico's progress.

9. Following ALVAREZ's departure, Subject looked at me as though I were a bad dog or something and asked in a scolding tone how I could have ever suspected her of cooperating with LOGINOV. No, she just couldn't understand it. I replied that I hadn't suspected her and reminded her that I hadn't said I did. I then said more seriously that there was one thing that bothered me, however. On the one hand, she told me she loved Mexico and regarded the U.S. as her second country; yet on the other, she claimed to be totally apolitical. The Soviets in Mexico, I repeated, were working to undermine both countries, and proceeded to go over again much of what I had said earlier. I stated that it was incredible to me that Soviet activities in Mexico didn't make any difference to her. I had contacted her, I said, not because I had any suspicion of her, but because from the little I knew of her I had hoped she'd cooperate in helping us learn more about LOGINOV and his activities in Mexico. Subject thereupon protested that there was nothing more she could tell me. She had told me everything worth telling about their association. Moreover, she hadn't seen him since Christmas time. LOGINOV was smart, never talked about anything sensitive, and could probably never be induced to do so. The only thing
he had ever asked her of an even remotely suspicious or interesting nature was whether she had any friends at the American Embassy. She said she had replied tartly that she had friends everywhere, and that LOGINOV hadn't bothered her with such questions since. In short, she didn't see how she could be of any help. I replied that since it was I who need the help, this was for me to decide, that whether she liked it or not she was in contact with an important Soviet intelligence officer who was of great interest to the United States, and that now that I knew her better, I was confident she had the intelligence and judgment to help us. I did not want to interfere in any way in her personal life. Nor did I really want her to do anything in the sense that she would have to go out of her way. All I wanted was that she be as observant as possible during her normal contacts and dates with LOGINOV, to try to see into the man, what made him tick, what his problems were, whether he was satisfied with his work, how he liked to relax, what did he enjoy, what did he want, etc. Then after each substantial contact, most probably a date, I'd like to have the opportunity to sit down with her over lunch or wherever it be and discuss her observations. This was all I was asking. All right, if that's all I wanted, she'd do it.

10. There was, I said, one thing I wanted to impress on her: if we were to obtain any worthwhile results, one thing was essential... Subject nodded at this point and interrupted: "I know... keep quiet." I emphasized that this meant with everyone, including her family, her friends, her boss and her co-workers. Subject assured me that she could be relied upon.
11. Contact Arrangements. Subject agreed to call me to set up a luncheon date after her next date with LOGINOV. We will meet at the entrance to the Pergola at the time and date specified. I gave her the 670 extension and asked that she use the name "Mary" when calling.

12. There are clearly two essentials if Subject is to develop into a worthwhile asset. First she is going to have to come up with more interesting observations than simply that LOGINOV is smart. She may be able to do this by becoming a more diligent and careful observer—which I think she is capable of—or it may require an effort on her part to develop a closer relationship with LOGINOV. One possibility in the latter direction is to prevail upon her to become more intimate with LOGINOV than she now appears to be. On the basis of LICOZY-5's opinion that she probably sleeps around, this might be possible, although it is much too early to say. Second, Subject must prove cooperative. She strikes me as a very independent and strong-willed person, and there is no guarantee she won't change her mind or do only what she feels like doing. It is also possible that in a moment of reconsideration, she might confide in LICOZY-5, in which case her credibility would become tangled with his.

CONTACT REPORT

SUBJECT: BESABER

DATE OF MEETING: 7 March 1967

1. Operational: Met BESABER at his hotel room in Del Paseo for breakfast. Meal lasted from 0800-0920. Next meet will be after Easter.

2. Substance

a. BEKEEP: BEKEEP phoned BESABER on Friday, 3 March 1967 to invite himself, his wife and the RZADZINSKI couple down for the day on 5 March. They arrived on 5 March at about 1000, stayed until 1700.

b. BESABER reported that Mrs. RZADZINSKA is three months pregnant (by her admission) and that he, BESABER, thinks that BEKEEP is the father. He cited the following as evidence:

(1) The RZADZINSKIS admitted they they had been married for over five years, yet this is her first pregnancy.

(2) Mr. RZADZINSKI was totally unattentive to Mrs. R. BESABER and his wife assume that after so many years of waiting for a child, Mr. R. should have shown more concern for and interest in his wife.

(3) Likewise, Mr. R. was totally disinterested in the fact that he is about to become a father.

(4) BEKEEP, on the other hand, showed concern for Mrs. R. when she went to sleep in the sun. Twice he suggested that Mr. R. wake her up so she would not get burned. He didn't.

(5) Mrs. R. appeared interested in BEKEEP. When he went swimming Mrs. R followed, proceeded to jump on him and frolic in the water. Mrs. R. paid no attention at all.

(6) Mrs. R. sat next to BEKEEP at lunch (on purpose), kept looking at BEKEEP lovingly.

(7) BEKEEP, possibly embarrassed by all the attention Mrs. R. was showing him, made some very complimentary remarks about his wife. Mrs. BEKEEP, who apparently was completely oblivious to what BESABER and his wife thought was so obvious in the BEKEEP/Mrs. R. relationship, was obviously very pleased.
but surprised, to hear her husband speaking about her in such a complimentary way. She asked incredulously whether he really meant what he said and when BEWEEP reiterated with some embarrassment that he thought she was the best wife in the world, Mrs. BEWEEP, covered with confusion but happy said that this was the first time he had ever said such kind things about her, the first time she had been aware that he really did think she was a good wife.

(8) BEWEEP seemed relaxed enough, but different. On several occasions when political matters came up, usually raised by Mr. R., he changed the subject, once asked Mr. R. almost rudely, "Don't you have anything better than politics to talk about."

(9) Mrs. BEWEEP said that the two couples had been in the habit of going off on weekends together. BESABER supposed that BEWEEP may have done the deed during one of their outings.

c. In private conversation with BESABER, Mrs. BEWEEP asked if BESABER had heard from BESATON. When BESABER said he had not, Mrs. BEWEEP said that her husband had told her BESATON was in Colombia (SLINKARD had told BEWEEP this). She then went on to say that BESATON was the nicest man in the world. "I don't know what he is, but he's the nicest man in the world." "He introduced us to another American (obviously SLINKARD) whom we see often, but it's not the same."

d. Mrs. BEWEEP, still alone with BESABER, was very complimentary towards the U. S. She said the U. S. was made for women, the merchandising, the packaging, the stores, etc. Moreover, the people are all nice.

e. Joined by BEWEEP, Mrs. BEWEEP got off on the Russians. She explained that it was difficult to understand the Russians since she, as a Pole, belonging to the Western Cultural traditions, held so many different views about life in general. She was apparently particularly thinking of the sense of distrust in the Russian mentality. She said that the Russians here in the Embassy simply could not believe that the two daughters of the former Polish Ambassador, Jerzy GRUDZINSKI, had been permitted to stay on in Mexico after their WYNNX father's recall last year.

f. Mrs. BEWEEP told Mrs. BESABER that she was not teaching geography at the Embassy to the children of the officials.

g. BEWEEP told BESABER that he thought he would remain in Mexico until the first few months of 1969, but certainly until after the Olympics of the fall of 1968.

h. Tenon RZADZINSKI and wife - In addition to the information above noted regarding R. and his wife, the BESABERS picked up the following:

(1) RZADZINSKI was previously stationed in Vietnam as a member of the ICC (interpreter). He speaks good English and his Spanish, although not as good, is understandable.

(2) R. doesn't understand why the Americans are carrying out the war they way they are. Without in any way criticizing the American position, he did say that he found it unbelievable that they did not destroy the port of Haiphang.

(3) R. had contact with Americans in Vietnam. He spent one month at the Danang air base, apparently enjoyed it.

(4) R. did not get off on politics, possibly because BEWEEP apparently did not want to talk about such subjects.

3. Comments

We have no information to substantiate the BESABERS supposition that BEWEEP is the father of Mrs. R's expected child. I told BESABER this. It may be true, but to have any operational significance, we would almost have to prove it.

4. Plans

a. I asked BESABER to arrange a lunch with BEWEEP in the near future to try to see if there was anything more to the above supposition. (Lunch now set up for 4 April).

b. Tentatively, BESABER will invite LOGINOV to Cuernavaca for 8 or 9 April to look at houses (for Sov Embassy retreat) and play tennis at Colonel Higgins (whom I will brief as soon as I can get hold of him).

1. EAST GERMAN SHIPS AT VESACUL.

The HEINRICH HEINE (11 photos enclosed) arrived as expected on February 15, (see referenced airmail, pgh. 1) direct from La Havre, and left for Havana February 21 in billet. The ship had planned to take a Canadian passenger (Alexander John LAMBERT, port 6, B-602224, issued Toronto, 12/13/66, age 35, occupation: 2nd class steward, Toronto 13), but he disappeared at the last minute. Blanchard planned to return to Mexico City from Cuba via the C.I. T.I., and then come back down to Veracruz to get his wife Mary (pa) who has to remain here. The Italian tourist cards of Mr. 6 yrs. Blanchard expired February 12, 1967. The local agent for the East German line stated that, recently, the honorary Consul of East Germany (a rival shipping agent) has been going aboard each East German ship to offer all possible assistance; on looking into this, said the agent, he discovered that East Germany's representatives throughout the world, wherever East Germany is not represented, have been ordered to act discreetly in representation of East German interests as well as East German interests.

research vessel "MIRIAD" (3 photos enclosed) arrived February 24th, giving Cristobal as her last port, and is expected to leave late February 26th. On February 23rd, the merchant vessels "VITLACAL" and "ILICOSK" arrived in ballast from Havana, Cuba, and Habana, respectively. The former is to load an estimated 5,000 metric tons of corn and the latter an estimated 11,000. Gray lists of the three ships last mentioned are enclosed. Mexican authorities mounted a guard around the "ILICOSK" and refused to let anyone on or off. Soviet Consul and Third Secretary Valentin L. LOPATIN in town in connection with the visiting Russian ships, called the Consulate on February 27th, wanting to talk to the Consul, who was out of town, but showed no interest in talking to the Vice Consul. On February 23rd, a local shipping agent introduced Lopatin to the Vice Consul. Lopatin complained of the lack of hospitality shown to the Soviet scientific ship by Mexican authorities, comparing this with the significant reception the ship had received in San Francisco; he even asked if the American Consulate didn't have some relationship with Mexican immigration authorities, implying that we might be able to help them. Lopatin, who was very cordial, said he had been in Mexico City a year and a half and lived there with his family. He seemed about six feet tall, with short, reddish-blonde hair, and spoke fluent Spanish with Russian accent.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Contact with BESABER

DATES OF MEETINGS: 23 and 28 February 1967

A. Operational

1. As arranged by phone CO met BESABER in latter's room at the Hotel Del Paseo, dates 23 and 28 February. Mrs. BESABER was present at the second meet. BESABER plans to be in Mexico City on 9 March and will call to arrange meet.

B. Finances

1. CO picked up BESABER's accounting for revolving fund. I'll reimburse him at next meet.

C. Substance

1. Soviets - At about 1000 on 18 February Vladimir Ivanovich SHPAKEVICH (P-8167) phoned BESABER from Cuernavaca. BESABER had never met him before. S explained he friend of Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV (P-11712), that I unable to make it because some people had arrived in town. S showed interest in buying some of BESABER's products, therefore BESABER asked him to come to factory. S arrived with wife and young girl who works in the Embassy (18-19 years old, tall, good figure, dark brown hair, spoke Spanish, she wore kerchief) - this probably Tatyana MARKINA (P-12945).

2. S brought almost 2000 pesos worth of stuff including two large screens. BESABER opines that this was not personal purchase, but rather either for the Embassy or operational expense deal. S also insisted that purchases be delivered to Embassy, not his house.

3. S invited BESABER and wife to Army Day reception at the Soviet Embassy (28 Feb 1967), saying that he had forgotten to bring written invitation but that it would be at the gate of the Embassy (BESABER was reluctant to go and I thought it better for him to not appear overly eager so he did not go.)

4. Before leaving (they stayed about 45 minutes) S told BESABER that he would probably come to Cuernavaca the following day, Sunday about noon. (he didn't.)

5. After S, XXX wife and M had left BESABER picked up a
girl and drove to the Arosena (phonetic) hotel in downtown
Cuernavaca. Sitting in the garden of the hotel at about 1300
he spotted S (with his shirt off) sitting at another table
conversing with a man who looked Russian, apparent age 25, thin,
wavy dark brown hair. S's wife also present, but M not. BESABER
left after about 15 minutes without talking to S although S must
have seen him.

6. Per CO instructions BESABER phoned L on 24 February to
apologize for not making it to the reception. During this
conversation (LIENVOY intercepted) L said he would come to
BESABER's house for lunch on Saturday, 25 February with about
five other people. He showed up at about 1545, stayed until about
1830 with:

Aleksandr Mikhaylovich BROVKN (P-829) and wife
Boris Aleksandrovich MALAKHOVICH (P-9772) and wife
Mrs. Pavel YATSKOV (P-885)
Mrs. LOGINOV (P-11712)
8 assorted children of above.

7. They arrived in two cars, BROVKN driving a 2-year old
light blue Ford Falcon, LOGINOV a blue-gray Chevrolet, license
plates 19-DA. (BESABER may be color blind - our records show
both cars as being green.)

8. The conversation was characterized by a lot of
propaganda on BROVKN's and LOGINOV's part. Although Vietnam was
not mentioned, L boasted several times that the Soviets would
get to the moon first, complained about the Kennedy murder
scandal, and generally spoke in an anti-American vein. BESABER
and his wife tried to laugh them out of this theme, but with little
success.

9. At one point BESABER mentioned an article he had recently
read in Business Week about the Soviet car industry. When he
told LOGINOV that the article purported to be based on CIA
information, L would not leave him alone until he found the
article and gave it to him.

10. LOGINOV was obviously the superior of the three men.
Neither MALAKHOVICH nor his wife said a word. BROVKN, after a
few drinks (but not drunk) started moaning about the problems
of life, mentioned that the only thing that kept him going was his
good wife and children. At this point LOGINOV walked up behind
BROVKN's chair, practically lifted BROVKN, chair and all, and
said, "We must go."

SECRET
SECRET

11. As far as the BESABERS could make out the only purpose of the visit (other than to get a free meal) was to invite the BESABERS to come to the Embassy to see Soviet films. Not knowing how he should react BESABER was non-committal, although he couldn't resist asking BROVINK if they had any Westerns in color. (I told BESABER he should not go to movies and if the subject came up again to tell the Soves that while he liked them as people, he didn't want to hear their propaganda either orally or from the sound track of some lousy movie).

12. BESABER is less impressed by LOGINOV's intelligence than heretofore. Between L's and B's heavy-handed propagandizing (especially in the capitalistic "ambiente" of the BESABERS) BESABER was less than impressed with their tact.

13. Mrs. BESABER reported that of the three women Mrs. YATSKOV was by far the most presentable. She learned that the YATSKOV's were on their second tour in Mexico, that they liked Mexico (Mrs. BESABER is Mexican). Mrs. BROVINK related that they had one daughter (age 14) in Moscow besides the two children with them in Mexico.

14. Plans for future get-togethers include only LOGINOV. Mrs. BESABER will look for some housing for the Soves in Cuernavaca; BESABER when she has found something, they'll invite LOGINOV down to have a look at them. There is also the possibility of tennis, although both BESABERS are loathe to take any Soves to Mrs. BESABER's tennis club, practically all the members of which are Americans. I agree.

15. The BESABERS proposed and I second the motion that I contact Laurence Higgins, a long-time station contact and personal friend of the BESABERS and tell them that the BESABERS are cultivating Soves in our behalf, ask him to let BESABERS bring LOGINOV, XM and possibly others to Higgins' court in Cuernavaca.

16. Attached are signatures of the Soves who visited BESABER.

17. Raul Morales Montoya - At 23 Feb meet BESABER handed over the attached postcard from RMH, dated 14 Feb from Colima. At the 28 Feb meet BESABER reported that RMH had phoned him from Colima on 24 Feb, reporting among other things that he would be in Colima for another month or so. He said he was working in the office of Secretaria Particular of the Governor of Colima (tel: 2-04-11) and staying at the Hotel Costeno (tel: 2-00-35).

[Signature]
On Saturday 28 I went to a party at the house of the Greek Consul General Leander Vourvoulia, and I saw there Vladimir Loguinov engaged in a heated discussion with an American consul whose name is Sherry. Sherry was arguing that there were a lot of Chinese in North Viet Nam, and Loguinov was saying that it was a pity that such a big nation as the US should be fighting an small and poor nation like Viet Nam.

I had a talk with Loguinov, who I think now is in charge of consular affairs and he told me that he thought that negotiations for the cultural agreement with Mexico were still going on, but that those who had been awarded the fellowships had already gone. But according to what he said there were quite a few more than ten.

Loguinov was with his wife and talking about the Bolshoi ballet he told me that I should have rang him up and he would have taken us, me and my wife, to see the ballet and to see the dancers behind the stage. He said that the ballet was coming to Canada for the fair and probably would come again to Mexico.

The Russians will give a party for the consulate, film and drinks sometime during February.

Loguinov asked me if I thought that some consulate would not show up at the Russian embassy as they did when they were invited by the Cubans. I told him that the position was entirely different because most countries had diplomatic and consular relations with the USSR.

recently rejoined RAY'S firm after previously leaving it and working for another firm in Mexico City. (The man is undoubtedly John G. PAGE, who is listed in the 1966-67 Anglo-American Directory as Sales Manager for Tele-Revista, S.A. The 1961-62 Anglo lists a John G. PAGE as being with Richard K. TONKINS & Assoc.--i.e., clearly the predecessor of "TONKINS, RAY, MARTEL,".) According to Subject, Mrs. PAGE's mother is Dr. Anita BRÜNNER, an American and the editor of "Mexico This Month." Mr. PAGE looks to be 35-40 years old and his wife about 30. PAGE is half Jewish and one of his parents was born in Russia. PAGE consequently speaks some Russian and spoke a little with KUCHEROV. LINOBBIN-1 saw RAY a few days after the film showing, and RAY mentioned that PAGE had told him that KUCHEROV had made a definite effort to make friends with him (PAGE), but that he (PAGE) had no interest in making friends with Communists.

4. As it turned out, Gulliver's Travels wasn't shown after all, as the film turned out to be in very poor condition and kept breaking when run on the projector. In its place, the Soviets showed a Soviet film about a poor young woman in 19th or early 20th century Russia who marries a wealthy old man and is corrupted by her new found riches. The kids and everyone else were disappointed, but Subject found some consolation in the fact that the flick at least was clean.

5. 15 February. On this date Subject and LINOBBIN-1 attended an evening reception at the Indian Embassy at the invitation of their friend K.D. FARASHAR, the Indian Consul. LOGINOV and SOKOLOV were also there, both without wives. Subject at first
and unfortunately really didn't know of any. LOGINOV said that he probably really ought to take English lessons from a Britisher. He added that he had once taken a few lessons from a "girl from Texas," but he had had to stop because of her "Texas accent."

LOGINOV finally said that well, look, he was having "a little party" the next evening and would like Subject and her husband (whom he eventually met in the course of the evening) to attend, as he would like to have her become acquainted with the Soviet Embassy, too (i.e., in addition to the Indian Embassy). LOGINOV added that perhaps she could even put something in THE NEWS about the affair. Subject accepted the invitation, although without LIMONIN-I, who was about to leave for the States, and said she'd see if she could get a photographer to the Embassy.

6. 16 February. On this date Subject attended the Consular Corps gathering at the Soviet Embassy. She went with the FARASHARS. LOGINOV was the first Soviet to greet her, but within a few moments PRIKHODKO and KUCHEROV came hustling up. Subject said that LOGINOV seemed genuinely surprised that his colleagues already knew her, but he did not ask for an explanation of how. On their parts, PRIKHODKO and KUCHEROV seemed equally surprised, but also avoided asking any questions. In the course of the evening, Subject talked with PRIKHODKO, KUCHEROV, DOLGOV, Mrs. PRIKHODKO, and Mrs. SOKOLOV. LOGINOV made no effort to search her out, and she did not talk with him again until leaving, at which time she thanked him for the invitation and apologized that the NEWS photographer she had asked to come to the Embassy had not shown up. However, she said she'd try to put something in "Around the Town."
gone and spend and/or make some time with her. She said she actually felt sorry for KUCHINOV, because he just wasn't cut out for the role and she thought he probably dreaded it.

8. 23 February. On this date Subject attended the Soviet Army Day reception at the Soviet Embassy. She went with Pearl GONZALEZ and an American named Bill SOLENIK, whom Pearl brought along as her escort. (KUCHINOV left an invitation for Pearl with Subject on 17 February.) According to Subject, SOLENIK is about 35 and is in "publicity" work here. (According to the A-A Directory, William A. SOLENIK is an executive in the International Department of Walter Thompson de Mexico.) Subject did not notice any other Americans at the reception. She talked with PRIKHODKO, Mrs. PRIKHODKO, KUCHINOV, DOLGOV, and, briefly, LOGINOV. DOLGOV said he had been with PRAVDA for six years. Subject had put a blurb about the 16 February Consular function in THE NEWS on 19 February and brought along a clipping for LOGINOV. LOGINOV said he hadn't seen it, seemed pleased, and thanked her. He then asked if she were going on the Consular Corps tour of the Mexican Home Show on 3 March. Well, no, Subject replied, why would she be, she wasn't a consul or married to one, and consequently hadn't been invited. LOGINOV replied that he thought she should go and therefore he was making her an honorary Soviet consul. Subject said that was fine with her and she'd see him at the Home Show. (I told Subject on 28 February to be careful with LOGINOV, because he was an experienced KGB officer and one of the most able men in the Soviet Embassy. This seemed to delight as much as concern Subject.)
9. March. Subject did not at first see LOGPOV on the Home Show tour, but mid-way through the tour she felt a tap on her shoulder, turned and saw LOGPOV. They then walked along together for the last 25 minutes of or so of the tour. Subject said that nothing of interest was said and they parted without any specific mention of getting together again. Subject said LOGPOV spent most of the time criticizing the U.S. on everything from its foreign policy to its treatment of the American Indian.

10. Pearl GONZALEZ. Subject told me on 8 March that Pearl had just received permission from the Cuban Government to visit Cuba as a journalist. Subject said U.S. foreign correspondents in Mexico had applied for permission to visit Cuba many times in the past, but had all been turned down. Pearl and Harold JONES of the Copley News Service, according to Subject, were the two most recent American applicants. JONES, according to Subject, was turned down. Subject said she thought Pearl was probably given permission because the Cubans believe they can lead her around by the hand and get some useful publicity out of her. Subject noted that Pearl believes Castro has done a lot of good for Cuba and that he has been unfairly treated by the U.S. press. Moreover, Subject observed, Pearl is by no means a full-fledged or experienced newspaper woman, as her only experience consists of writing society articles in THE NEWS for the last year. Subject said Pearl planned to visit the American Embassy on 8 March in order to get permission from the State Department to make the trip.

11. Antonio HALIK. I asked Subject if she knew HALIK, who according to the Foreign Correspondents' Assoc. handbook, is a

SUBJECT: LICOZY-3

DATE OF MEETING: 22 February 1967

1. I had breakfast with Subject at the Hotel Del Paseo from 0900 to 1000 on 22 February 1967. Next meeting is at the same place at 0900 on 8 March 1967.

2. Subject reported that he had had lunch with LOGINOV as planned. LOGINOV brought up the following topics:

   a. LOGINOV brought up the Ramparts article about CIA. Subject hadn't read or heard of it. LOGINOV then said this proved that CIA was very active and said they were active in Mexico. He again asked Subject if he had any friends at the American Embassy. Subject for the nth time told LOGINOV that he hadn't been in the American Embassy and that an office boy takes care of visas, etc. at the Embassy.

   b. LOGINOV then said that he was going to explain to Subject the line of the CC of the CP USSR on China. Then followed an harangue against the Chinese which Subject stated contained nothing that hadn't been in the newspapers.

   c. LOGINOV said that he has a Mexican girl whom he didn't identify and asked if Subject would give her a job or find her a job. Subject asked about her qualifications, English, typing, etc. LOGINOV answered that he didn't know. Subject said to send her around and he would see. To date she has not appeared. (COMMENT: Subject said he has no intention of hiring her, if she comes, but thought we would be interested in her identify. I told him to find out as much about her as possible. However since LOGINOV didn't say what kind of a job she wanted or what she could do, I will be surprised if she comes.)

   d. LOGINOV went into some detail explaining to Subject about the party he was giving at the Soviet Embassy on 16 February, for the Consular Corps. He then invited Subject.

6. LOGINOV said that Aeroflot service would be inaugurated between New York and Moscow in May. Once it is instituted local Soviets will fly to New York and catch Aeroflot there. Subject asked about U.S. visas which the Soviets have always complained about in the past. LOGINOV said that the Soviets will be travelling from Mexico to New York on Air France and Air France has agreed to handle the matter of transit visas with the U.S. Embassy. LOGINOV added that the local Soviets are looking forward to the stop off in New York which is much more interesting than Montreal. (COMMENT: If this works out we will have good advance notice of Soviet travel from Mexico and excellent passport photos).

3. Subject went to the party on 16 February 1967 with his secretary and his friend, Sinai Rome, First Secretary and Consul at the Israeli Embassy. He saw PRIKHODKO briefly and PRIKHODKO's wife attached herself to him and took care of him for the evening. He noted that YATSKOV wasn't at the party.

4. Rome introduced Subject to Jan JAKOWIEC. The minute JAKOWIEC heard Subject's name, he asked if he were from Mundus Tours. They then conversed in Polish. JAKOWIEC told Subject that the Polish delegation to the Olympics will come on the Batory and that the Poles are building a ship twice the size of the Batory which will be put on the Poland-New York City run next year. JAKOWIEC suggested that they get together for lunch and Subject agreed. JAKOWIEC said he would call Subject in about a week. Subject remarked that he is a sharp guy and speaks very good Russian. I told Subject that JAKOWIEC is the UB resident and instructed him not to go beyond a social relationship in any manner. Subject agreed.

5. Subject still has not heard anything on the ZARUDOWSKIY-ECHAVARRIA dinner.

6. Subject is travelling to Los Angeles on business for two days on 24 February. On 27 April he will go to Israel for 10 days to conduct a group of Mexicans who are going to the opening of the Mexican Pavilion at a university which was paid for by Mexican Jews.

7. Per LIENNOY, NIKIFOROV called Subject on 20 February 1967 and made an appointment to come to Subject's office at 1100 on 21 February. Subject did not mention this to me. I will bring up the Subject of NIKIFOROV in an innocuous way at the next meeting.

DATE OF MEETING: 15 February 1967

1. I met and had breakfast with Subject at the Hotel Del Paseo from 0900 to 0950 on 15 February 1967. The next meeting is at the Del Paseo on 22 February at 0830.

2. Subject reported that after a hiatus of no contact with any Soviet since the end of December, LOGINOV called him on 13 February and asked him for lunch on the 14th. Subject was busy on the 14th but agreed to meet him on the 15th at the Cafe Escla, near Subject's place of work. Subject chose a cafe rather than a restaurant in order to keep the meeting brief. He assured me that, other than being pleasant, he wouldn't accept any assignments or requests for information.

3. Subject said that the private dinner for influential Jews to talk to ECHEVARRIA at Jacobo ZABLUDOWSKI's house had not taken place. Subject will check with ZABLUDOWSKI. He said he also intends to make a courtesy call on ECHEVARRIA soon since he is a very influential man, may become President and it wouldn't harm Subject to keep his ear in.

4. Subject heard from Pedro Ferriz, a partner of ZABLUDOWSKI on TV, that USIA in Mexico had payed for the TV transmission time of the recent KOSYGIN interview from London. Asked why, Ferriz answered that USIA wanted the Mexican public to know the Soviet position on Vietnam and China.

5. Subject reported that the Air France inaugural flight to Red China had been cancelled due to the situation in China. I told Subject that Headquarters had expressed no interest in any case.

6. I asked Subject for the details on being representative for LUXINSHE, the Red Chinese equivalent of Intourist. He said that in 1960 he attended the American Society of Travel Agents convention in Honolulu. On the way back he took a tour of the FE and NE with a group of travel agents. In Hong Kong the Hong Kong Tourist Board had a cocktail party for them. A representative of LUXINSHE was at the party and invited the group for lunch. At this lunch he offered to make them agents for his company. Everybody signed up since there was no contract involved; they were just appointed. Since then he has been on
their mailing list. He never has processed a traveller to China. He thinks that Cooks is also an agent but is not sure.

7. Subject said he is processing several people as tourists to the USSR in the spring and summer. No visas have been issued yet. He promised me thermofax copies of all visas.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Cocktail Party with Official Bloc Representatives

1. At a party given by the local head of the Consular Corps Association on 28 June, the undersigned met and again chatted with Valentin S. LOGINOV of the Soviet Embassy. He also met for the first time Jan Jakowiec of the Polish Embassy who was introduced to undersigned by LOGINOV.

2. As usual LOGINOV spent most of the time conversing with undersigned provoking him on a number of issues. The undersigned answered, making a few similar comments about the Chinese Civil War. When LOGINOV mentioned Vietnam, undersigned felt it would be nice if the Soviets helped the U.S. to bring peace to that area so they could concentrate more on the Chinese Communist danger. At one point in the conversation undersigned jokingly asked LOGINOV if there were Soviet nationals in North Vietnam. The latter said, "sure, we have many advisors there." The undersigned said, "no, what he meant was behind guns or in the seats of airplanes." LOGINOV said absolutely not. It also seems that LOGINOV has been keeping track of the people he sees undersigned talking with at cocktail parties. For example, LOGINOV was curious to know if undersigned has seen "his Haitian friend." Undersigned asked which one - the black one or the white one. LOGINOV said the white one, referring to the Haitian Vice Consul whom undersigned occasionally talks to. Undersigned said he had seen the Haitian at the Haitian National Day about a month ago but noted that the only Soviet present at that party was ANDREYEV, not LOGINOV. The latter, incidentally, corners the Haitians anytime he has a chance to, although he officially poo-poo's the Haitian regime. LOGINOV once more asked undersigned when he would come play tennis with him (this is about the fourth or fifth time). Undersigned told him he would do so after he gets invited by LOGINOV as the latter has often promised to do. One of the topics that LOGINOV mentioned was the Protection Section of the Embassy. "Protection against whom?" he asked. The undersigned gave him the usual lowdown on the number of tourists to Mexico and their problems. LOGINOV must have been interested in the section as he mentioned that a U.S. Vice-Consul working in that section whom he had met recently will be transferring to another post.

3. JAKOWIEC appears to be a man who likes to talk. His Spanish is quasi bi-lingual and JAKOWIEC says, by the way, that he learned it in Brazil. His wife is a plump, very Polish-looking woman. Her initial conversation was to laugh at some of the exchanges between LOGINOV and the undersigned. Both Mr. and Mrs. JAKOWIEC appear to speak fluent Russian. At one point in the conversation undersigned mentioned there is hardly a Pole in Poland who does not have a relative in the United States; JAKOWIEC agreed and commented that while the Poles are close to Americans in many things they are not so pleased at other things that the U. S. does. Undersigned deferred the discussion of this point for another meeting. As many of the Consular Corp members know that undersigned served many years in Vietnam, the latter felt that he should not hide this fact to the official bloc representatives as they would find out about it anyway. This came out for the first time on the occasion of this cocktail party when JAKOWIEC somehow mentioned Vietnam and the efforts of the Polish members of the Armistice Commission there. The undersigned, who has known a number of these people quite well, told JAKOWIEC that they speak French better than Polish as they were sons of Polish emigrants to France who returned to Poland after Gomulka took power. When JAKOWIEC started to imply that this indicated how wonderful things were in Poland, undersigned pointed out that the parents of the returnees, many of whom worked under very difficult conditions in France in the coal mines, preferred the hard work to the chance of working in Communist Poland.

4. The next cocktail party held by the Consular Assn. will probably be held at the Soviet Embassy. The President of the Association told undersigned that LOGINOV had asked him for his agreement to hold the next party at his Embassy. A large attendance of official bloc representatives can therefore be expected at the next get-together.

SUBJECT: Progress Report/LICU-5 (1 November 1966 - 15 January 1967)

REFERENCE: H-1430/2, 1 December 1966

1. The last Progress Report (see Reference) reported developments in the situation through 31 October 1966, but not included were Subject's activities at the 1967 Conference in London to which Subject traveled on 22 October 1966. This report will be presented later.

2. Contacts

A. Subject and KGB Case Officers

Apart from Subject's frequent visits in Moscow during October 1966, no former KGB case officer in Moscow, City Nachtpolizei, Subject visited his home in London for a few minutes. On 9 December, KGB case officer, called Subject down to the street outside Subject's office to present him with a KGB booklet. On 19 December, Subject visited Subject's office and spent no more than half an hour there. On 20 and 21 December, Subject was paid a brief visit by his KGB officer, KGB officer (possibly a candidate for resident) (201-120123) at Majdanek station.

B. Subject and KGB City Station Case Officer

In the two months since Subject's return from Europe in mid-November, C/O, Nachtpolizei, has seen Subject six times for an average of one hour each time.

The C/O met Subject at his office on 22 November for two hours.

In December, the C/O met Subject three times, on 8 December at his office for almost two hours, on 12 December at the Hotel Majdanek for a half-hour, and on 22 December at Subject's office for an hour.

On 2 January, the C/O and his wife took Subject to the city for dinner at the Belgrade Room of the Hotel Continental, then for a former visit to Subject's home. On 12 January, the C/O met Subject at the latter's office for one hour.

3. Operational Implications

A. Subject/KGB

Subject arrived in Moscow on 22 October 1966 to attend the INTERPOL conference.
to which travel agents on a world-wide basis had been invited. On the 2nd, second,
Jewish holiday, the Kechiporanko, Subject's former Soviet C/O in London, came to
visit him at the Hotel National. Subject deliberately kept his son at his side
so that Kechiporanko would find it difficult to have private words with him.
However, Kechiporanko came to visit Subject every day thereafter until Subject's
departure. Kechiporanko brought gifts of records, records, etc. Then Kechiporanko
found the opportunity the first thing he told Subject was that he heard Subject had been a
"hero" and had been difficult in London. Subject, in his half-serious manner,
protested to the idea that he was a rebel and told Kechiporanko earnestly that he
didn't have the time, effort or inclination to indulge in the cooperation that was
expected of him. He gave Kechiporanko the old line about friends "back in Russia"
but that he couldn't and wouldn't put out the old effort. Kechiporanko said that
this was the best, because he had wanted to present Subject to his chief and now there
was no point to the Subject shrugged this off. Kechiporanko asked Subject if he
would be willing to use his office as a letter-drop. Subject said, reluctantly,
that he could not use a letter-drop since agents writing to his firm and to him
would then know of Subject's connection with the Soviets and he would then be
exposed. For this reason, Kechiporanko told Subject to think it over and talk to
Valentin (Logunov) in London about it. Also, Kechiporanko told Subject that they
hadn't forgotten about the "branch office" and that Subject shouldn't feel bad
about the delay in setting it up. Subject ridiculed that idea, saying that it was
the Soviets who should feel bad; as for him, he couldn't be bothered in the future
with the trip and the time involved. Kechiporanko, still not satisfied, asked if
Subject would provide information on all changes in visa regulations for travel in
Central and South America. Subject said he had given this information to the
Soviets in the past. Kechiporanko then asked Subject to continue to give such
information to Valentin.

Subject related to Kechiporanko that he was working in the Latin-American
Section of the Foreign Ministry, and that he was allowed to come and go as he
pleased to visit Subject. In the context of telling Subject that he saw that
Subject was not getting along with his Soviet friends, Kechiporanko said that he
would be coming back to London next year.

One day while Kechiporanko was in the hotel room, the phone rang and Subject
picked up the phone. A female voice asked for "Gloy." Subject blearily replied
in Russian that "Gloy" wasn't around, but wouldn't do. In the ensuing conversa-
tion, Subject found out that the caller was a 25-year-old student, her address and
telephone number, and made an appointment to see her the following day at the train station
c. It of the Petro. Kechiporanko was all in favor of Subject making the date, and
as a matter of fact came the next day to take Subject's son to the circus so that
Subject would be free. [Comment: Subject said that he never did go to meet the girl,
but told Kechiporanko that he had gone and the girl had not shown up. Subject
was of the opinion this was not a provocation by the Soviets, but he shied away
because he did not want to be involved in anything indiscreet.]

Then Alexander Prikhodko dropped in unexpectedly at Subject's office on 9
December, while Subject's wife and son were present, the Soviet asked when he could
have lunch with Subject, and the latter put him off telling Prikhodko to call next
week. [Comment: Prikhodko did not call.]

On 9 December, Valentin Logunov, who had called Subject's office by phone to
have Subject come down to the street, saw Subject for just a minute to present him
with two tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet for 9 December. [Comment: Subject attended.]
On 13 December, Legnino came unannounced to Subject's office and prevailed on him to come with him to Paris. The Soviet presented Subject with four bottles of vodka for Christmas, and asked Subject to send a series of personal greetings to the Soviet. Subject left Paris for Berlin after WWII - had his documentation been lost or stolen? Subject answered that it was lost.

If you can be able to enter Paris - did he have a valid French visa? Subject said he did. How long did he stay in Paris? Subject said a few months.

Did he receive from service with the Polish U.S. Subject said yes. Were there any restrictions to this request? Subject said no. Did he suppose to be contacted by the Polish but not said yes, and related the story of how he was arrested in Berlin in 1941 by a Polish diplomatic courier who brought a letter from Subject's old comrade in the U.S., and how Subject answered that letter. Did Subject receive in the Polish team positive or negative? Subject said neutral. Related why, Subject replied that he believed that eighty percent of the Poles were anti-Soviet. Legnino said coming right.

Legnino told how Subject was getting along with the American airman he dealt with. Subject a Latvian, and asked why. Legnino said that maybe, if Subject had the chance, he could learn more about the director of the CIA in London. Subject told Legnino it was crazy to think Subject could get that information. Then Legnino persisted in knowing whether Subject would tell the Soviets if he did get that information, Subject dismissed the topic with a few words.

Subject wanted to show Legnino the documents that backed up his story on Legnino's questions.

On 13 December, Jurek Yatsak dropped by Subject's office to see if he could get his visa to leave. He brought back from Moscow. Comment: Subject had seen Yatsak a few days earlier, the Soviet's travel to London by arranging for Subject's travel to Paris to meet Yatsak. Yatsak expressed gratitude to Subject for providing him with a bottle of Canadian wine, some vodka, a decoration for the dinner of honor. Yatsak (who no longer held the post of Soviet Consul in London) told Subject that he had also prepared for what Subject had done for "them," and he was sure that Subject would not let them down in the realization of their common ideals. And Yatsak further said that he was subject to every such in common, and that they should meet. It was left that Yatsak would see Subject.

7. Subject's Office in City Station

The CIA met Subject at his office on 22 November 1966 to debrief him on the results of his trip to Moscow (see paragraph 3 A. above). In addition to providing information on his contacts with Kuchipenko, Subject gave incidental information concerning a famous Soviet Jew he met, and the anti-American attitude of a general agent from Chile.

On 8 December, in Subject's office, Subject reported to the CIA on his contacts with Kuchipenko and Legnino on 3 and 5 December. In response to Legnino's request, re-opened with Subject the Legnino's community support that Secretary of Governmental Economic Intelligence in his capacity as next president of Mexico. Subject related that when Jacobo Zabludovsky had come to mention the matter to Subject, bringing the fact that Subject had been proposed to one of the five influential members of the Jewish community for Scheuerle's approval (Zabludovsky did not mention the other. The CIA requested that Subject check further with Zabludovsky then have an opportunity.
On 17th December, the C/O directed Subject to the C/O about legitimate personal matters of Subject. On the same day, the latter was asked such questions. Subject did not answer, though he was completely puzzled by this lack of part of the sub-theme. Subject did not feel perfectly at ease in telling the truth to the C/O, and had no hesitation in showing them his documentation.

On 22 December, after having visited a Christmas gift to Subject, he told the C/O that he had met Flight Sergeant Victor J. Jackson.

1. Subject mentioned that he had received a holiday-season letter from "Dear" Victor Jackson, U.S. Air Force Officer, now in Chile. Subject asked Subject to report the news of his going. Subject had received a letter from Air Force in January, to which Subject had replied that he would be able to report the news of his going, but did not mention C/O if "Dear" Victor had any interest in the taking the trip. The C/O replied that Subject would be invited.

The C/O then discussed seriously with Subject the question of taking the trip, since the break-off from the Station was really near, inasmuch as there was every prospect that he would leave the Station. Subject stated that the acceptance came from Air Force, and that he had been told to report the news of his departure. C/O asked Subject to send a letter to the Station to inform them of Subject's departure. Subject asked the C/O if there was any "hassle" in giving the go-ahead on passing the documentation. C/O advised Subject to pass the documentation to the Station, because he would not be the one to pass it to the C/O; Subject's role was to pass the documentation to the Station.

On 17th January 1947, the C/O (having received the Station's approval of Subject's departure) followed up the invitation from Air Force, and Subject for more details concerning the invitation from Air Force, and gave him the go-ahead to pursue the matter.

4. The current C/O, Mr. Terrence R. Vachon, will turn Subject over to Mr. Vachon before Subject's departure from Mexico the end of January 1947.

he came from the northern part of the USSR (6), but this source is not
known for accurate reporting.

3. CITIZENSHIP AND PASSPORT DATA:
   Soviet Diplomatic Passport # 16993, issued 24 Aug 1960 (3).
   Soviet Diplomatic Passport # 010264, issued 24 Jun 1965 (5), used currently (4).

5. OTHER NAMES USED: Unknown.

6. CURRENT POSITION: Third Secretary and Consul General at the Soviet
   Embassy in Mexico City, Mexico (1).

7. RELATIVES:
   Wife: Aleksandra Dmitriyevna LOGINOVA (28). Known as "Shura" (1).
   DPOB: 20 Aug 1928 in Moscow (28).
   Passports: D-16094, used in 1962 (4).
   D-1810010265, issued 24 Jun 1955, currently used (4).
   Description: Plump, has reddish hair (15). Photographs are attached.
   Languages: LOGINOVA has been studying Spanish with Carmen ROURE
   Canosa, a local employee of the Soviets (4), since at least June 1966 through May
   1967 (1), but her Spanish is still said to be very limited (6, 25). She is said
to speak a little English (25), and claimed she had studied English in Moscow
(1). She is also said to speak some French (25).
(wife, cont.)

Miscellaneous: LOGINOVA has said that she has known her husband since age six as neighbors in Moscow (6). She claims to be a chemical engineer (6). During Subject's tour in Havana, 1960-63, LOGINOVA worked in the Soviet Consulate (28). She arrived in Mexico on 10 Oct 1965, two months after her husband (4). Since Feb 1966 she had been reported as chairman of the zhenskom (Soviet women's organization), and as such has had to persuade the Soviet women to do various administrative chores, as well as being involved with running the dacha that the Soviets have had in Cuernavaca in the summers of 1966 and 1967 (1).

Family: In June 1967 LOGINOVA asked the wife of Commercial Counselor Viktor Mikhaylovich IVANOVA (201-245651) to call her mother when she got to Moscow, saying that her family lived at the Botanical Gardens (1).

Daughter: Irina, born ca. 1952 (28).

In June 1967 LOGINOVA said she had a fifteen-year-old daughter, who was living with LOGINOVA's mother (in Moscow) (6). In April 1967 LOGINOVA said her daughter was in an English school in Moscow (25). Irina was reportedly with her parents in Havana, 1960-63 (28); however, she did not travel with them from Havana to Moscow on 11 May 1962 (4) and therefore may have been in Havana for only a part of Subject's tour. She has not been in Mexico.

Son: Dmitriy (4).

DOB: 1959 (28), birthday probably 6 August (1).

Dmitriy was with his parents in Havana, 1960-63 (28), and arrived in Mexico City with his mother on 10 Oct 1965 (4).

Subject has expressed interest in having his son take English lessons when the family returns from home leave in August 1967 (21).
8. LANGUAGES:

Spanish: Subject speaks fluent Spanish with very little accent (11, 24).

English: Since 1966 Subject has been reported taking English lessons, apparently at the Instituto de Traductores e Interpretes in Mexico City (1). In April 1967 he said that he had been paying a girl [American] for lessons in English, but that she did not have enough background in grammar (25). (Comment: Subject was probably more interested in meeting American girls than in studying English in this case.) Subject's English is believed to be fair at present.

9. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS:

One source described Subject as tall, blond and blue-eyed (11). Another source said that he was six feet tall and had short, reddish-blonde hair (24). Photographs are attached.
10. PERSONALITY, CHARACTER, HABITS:

All sources agree in describing Subject as smooth and completely self-controlled. He is an aggressive conversationalist. One source described him as vulgar, crude, ill-mannered, short-tempered and a tyrant, who thinks he is a big shot (8).

Subject seems to have made a play for every girl he has met. In at least one instance he has claimed to be unmarried when inviting a girl out (27). When his wife was staying at the dacha in Cuernavaca he reportedly made dates with other women (8). On 13 Sep 1966 he was seen in a cafe with a Mexican-looking woman (18).

Subject is interested in sports and is good at them. In Sep 1966 it was reported that he did not play tennis (15), and by Apr 1967 he was said to be a good tennis player, claimed that he had been playing for less than a year and never played more than once a week (25). He is said to have the build of a trained athlete, the brutish look of a boxer or wrestler, and the grace of a natural athlete (25). He has said that he boxed when he was younger, and that he plays basketball and volleyball (25), also that his favorite sports are skiing and speed skating (21). He also plays chess but is not an addict (25). He has belonged to the French Club in Mexico City since ca. November 1965 (1) and has been seen there frequently on weekends, sometimes with his wife and child (15). One Sunday (20 Mar 1966) Subject and Yevgeny Nikolayevich GORLITSYN were seen playing badminton with their wives at the French Club (15).

One source reported that Subject smoked "Fiesta" cigarettes (8), and another source reported in Apr 1967 that Subject did not smoke (25). One source has reported that Subject downed several beers after playing tennis (25), but another source reported that on a social occasion Subject did not even finish one Scotch and water (19). On 1966 Subject and Vladislav Sergeyevich KOR MUSHKIN reported drove into the Soviet Embassy at 0300 hours roaring drunk (8), which may or may not be accurate reporting.
Subject has apparently been taking English lessons since early 1966 at the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores, which is located at Tiber. He seems to have made friends with a number of people through these classes. (1) (Cf. under Contacts.)

In February 1966 it was reported that Subject's wife had bought a tape recorder (1). In June 1967 Subject himself ordered a Grundig tape recorder (1).

Subject was reported having an operation on 1 Feb 1966 (17); no further details are available.

11. CURRICULUM VITAE:

Subject claims that he has served in the Red Army (8).

(Subject's name was reportedly listed in Feb 1960 as about to be assigned to Buenos Aires as Soviet Military Attache; it would appear that either this was another person with the same name, or that Subject was being considered for assignment there as diplomatic attache.)

14 Sep 1960 Subject and his family arrived in Havana, where Subject was assigned as Attache at the Soviet Embassy (3, 28).

December 1961 Subject toured Latin America as escort and interpreter for the Dynamo soccer team (28).

Sep 1963 Subject and his family left Havana PCS (28).

3 Aug 1965 Subject arrived PCS in Mexico City as Third Secretary assigned to the Soviet Embassy (4). Subject replaced Oleg Makstmovich NECHIPOR-ENKO as Vice Consul (1).
10 Oct 1965

Subject's wife and son arrived in Mexico (4).

August 1966

Subject was apparently promoted to Consul General after Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV left Mexico on 4 Aug 1966 for home leave. In Sep 1966 Subject was telling everyone in town that he was now the Consul (1, 6, etc.)

16 Jul 1967

Subject, accompanied by his wife and son, left Mexico for Moscow via Paris (4). Also travelling with them on LOGINOVA's passport was Tatyana, the daughter of Boris Aleksandrovich MALAKHOVICH (4). Subject has told several people that this is home leave and that he will be returning to Mexico (1, 6, 21, 22).

12. INTELLIGENCE AFFILIATION: Known KGB, based on his having taken over an agent previously handled by known KGB officers Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO (201-305870) and Aleksandr Vladimirovich PRIKHODKO (201-202379), as well as his other intelligence activities given below.
13. INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES:
(Cf. also information under Contacts, below. Subject has undoubtedly been
developing contacts, particularly with American girls, with a view toward
intelligence possibilities.)

In December 1961 while travelling with the Dynamo soccer team, Subject
met a Bolivian security/official in La Paz, Bolivia and reportedly tried to
persuade him to study in Cuba. The source, however, is believed to be a
fabricator. (28).

After Subject saw the soccer team off, he continued to Panama, where he
met with a Mexican citizen, Edmundo Fausto ZORRILLA Martinez (P-2818)
on 16 Dec 1961, and on 17 Dec 1961 Subject and ZORRILLA travelled to
Mexico City on the same plane. Subject received (US) $2,000; had ca. (US)
$2,000 with him in Panama. (29).

On 14 Feb 1966 KGB officer Aleksandr Vladimirovich PRIKHODKO
(201-202379) turned an agent over to Subject. (The agent had previously been
handled by Subject's predecessor, Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO.)
On 14 Apr 1966 the agent attempted to break his intelligence relationship with
the Soviets, although he has remained in business and social contact with them.
Subject, occasionally joined by PRIKHODKO, has continued to give intelligence
requirements to the agent, and questioned him particularly about his access to
the U.S. Embassy and tried to persuade him to continue cooperating with
the KGB. On 24 Jun 1966 Subject asked the agent for information on Eduardo
WEBELMAN and his son Mauricio. On 13 Dec 1966 Subject asked the agent
to try to find out who the WOFACt chief in Mexico was. (6). (Comment:
Mauricio WEBELMAN was subsequently reported to be a friend of suspect
KGB officer Yevgeny Nikolayevich GORLITSYN's.)
On 20 Jan 1966 Cristobal TORRES Ponce, chauffeur employed by the U.S. Embassy in Mexico, was sent to the Soviet Embassy to pick up the passport of the wife of a U.S. Embassy official who was planning a trip to the USSR. Subject talked to TORRES, asked him if he would like to visit the USSR or receive Soviet magazines, and if he knew anyone who would be willing to give him English lessons, and finally made a dinner date with TORRES for 24 Jan 1966. When TORRES did not keep the date, Subject called him on 8 and 9 Feb 1966 in an attempt to keep the contact alive. (12, 14).

Subject dealt with the Federal District police several times in July 1966 in regard to a radio that had been stolen from his car. On 20 Jul 1966 the policeman (LNO) who had been handling the radio case reported to his superior, General Luis CUETO Ramirez, that Subject had offered him 5,000 pesos (4,000 dollars) a month if he would work for him. After consulting with the Minister of Interior, CUETO told the policeman to accept Subject's offer, which he reportedly did on 21 Jul 1966. Subject's first assignment to the policeman was to locate Venezuelan citizens Nicolas Juan BOSTROEM and his wife. (16). (Comment: Nothing further has been learned about this case. BOSTROM is a native Russian employed by Stephens-Adamson de Mexico, his wife teaches Russian at the Ibero-American University.)

Subject has occasionally been reported visiting the small general store located across the street from the Soviet Embassy. On 5 Nov 1966 Subject reportedly questioned the store owner about occupants of one apartment building in the same block as the store, and on 6 Dec 1966 he asked general questions about the new apartment building at the end of the block. (8). (Comment: Both of these buildings contain base houses for the fixed surveillance of the Soviet Embassy.)
14. NON-INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITY:

In Mexico, Subject has consistently been reported performing consular duties. He issues visas and sees visitors to the Soviet Embassy in one of the reception rooms (21). He makes travel reservations for PCS and visiting Soviets. He is responsible when either PCS or visiting Soviets become ill and have to be sent to a hospital. He has often attended to the needs of Soviet ships in Mexican ports. He has done considerable house-hunting for the Soviets, such as looking for a new school building and for houses in Cuernavaca that would be suitable as a dacha. Subject had to sign the dacha contract in both 1966 and 1967. Subject also regularly attends the functions of the Consular Corps Association, and on 16 Feb 1967 he had the Association to the Soviet Embassy for a Russian evening. (1). In Sep 1966 Subject was reported as having become the Consul General (6, 8, 1, 11), having replaced Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV, who left Mexico for home leave on 4 Aug 1966. On 21 Feb 1967 Subject tried to get Panamanian visas for himself and Soveksportfilm representative Aleksandr Aleksandrovich NIKITIN (known KGB) to attend a Consular Congress to be held in Panama 11-15 Apr 1967 (1). The visas were refused.

On 26 Jan 1966 Subject attended a lecture given by a Mexican who was an exchange professor at a U.S. university. The lecture was sponsored by the PRI. Soviet Cultural Attache Svyatoslav Fedorovich KUZNETSOV also attended the lecture and sat on the platform, whereas Subject sat at the back of the room. (13).

Subject is reported to have taken the following trips in Mexico:

26-28 Oct 1965 To Mazatlan to attend to Soviet ship (11).
2-4 Nov 1965 To Mazatlan with Yevgeny Nikolayevich GORLITSYN to attend to Soviet ship (1).
4-8 Dec 1965 To Mazatlan to attend to Soviet ship (1, 9).
2-5 Feb 1966 To Mazatlan to attend to Soviet ship (1).
13-20 Feb 1966  To Coatzacoalcos to attend to Soviet ships. Soviet Embassy chauffeur Anatoly Pavlovich PRASICHKIN went with Subject but returned to Mexico City earlier. (1).

25-28 Apr 1966  Possibly to Guadalajara with Soviet tourist visitors attending a travel conference there (1).

4-9 May 1966  To Veracruz to attend to the matter of a missing Soviet sailor (1).

27-30 May 1966  To Veracruz to attend to Soviet ship (1).

26 Feb - 2 Mar 1966  To Veracruz with Soviet Commercial Counselor Viktor Mikhailovich IVANOV to attend to Soviet ships (1). While in Veracruz, Subject asked the U.S. Vice Consul, Richard BOOTH, if he would intercede with the Mexican authorities to get shore leave for the Soviet crew (24).
15. CONTACTS,

a. Soviet Contacts:

Subject has been seen coming and going at the Soviet Embassy most frequently with Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV (201-120123, known KGB), for whom Subject replaced as Consul. Since Subject's departure on home leave on 16 Jul 1967, YATSKOV has been seen regularly using Subject's car.

Subject has also been observed leaving the Soviet Embassy fairly often with Ivan Konstantinovich BARANOV (201-22382, 277838, known KGB sweeper) and Boris Aleksandrovich MALAKHOVICH (201-767974, suspect KGB technician). Subject has also borrowed the cars of YATSKOV and known KGB chauffeur Vasily Stepanovich MIROSHNIKOV (21-273046), (7).

In May 1966 Subject reportedly gave the wife of Aleksandr Aleksandrovich (201-784917, known KGB) a hard time when she wanted to send her son to the USSR with another Soviet wife. NIKITIN then complained to Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Vlasov (201-202379, known KGB), who reportedly ordered Subject to get a ticket for the NIKITIN child, (1). Cf. also above, where PRIKHODKO seems to be the senior case officer for an agent currently being handled by Subject.

In May 1967 LOGINOVA mentioned that she had known Boris Aleksandrovich CHMYKHOV (201-268115, known GRU) for years, (1). (Comment: CHMYKHOV was stationed in Havana 1960-62, at the same time that Subject was there.)

Cf. below for report of Subject's having taken CHMYKHOV with him to Cuernavaca to meet ZAREBSKI.

Subject has also been reported in contact with the following Soviets not stationed in Mexico:

Vitaly Konstantinovich BOYAROV (201-355606, known KGB), visited Mexico 27 May - 9 Jun 1966. On 1 Jun 1966 Subject and P.A. YATSKOV were absent from the Soviet Embassy for four hours with BOYAROV (7).

Vasily Vasilyevich GRIGORYEV, member of petroleum delegation that
visited Mexico 31 Mar - 14 Apr 1967. While GIRCORYEV was in Mexico he was reported in contact with Subject several times, once making plans to go to the movies together, also to ask Subject whether he should attend a French reception and to report the illness of one of the other Soviet delegates.

(1)

Boris Semenovich IVANOV (201-078078, known KGB), visited Mexico 8 - 22 Feb 1967. Subject made reservations for IVANOV in Mexico City and probably saw him off at the airport (1).

Yuri Vladimirovich LEBEDEV (201-213261), Minister Counselor at the Soviet Embassy in Havana. On 7 Feb 1966 Subject was reported sending something to LEBEDEV with a Soviet professor who was travelling back to Moscow via Havana (1).
15. b. Non-Soviet Contacts:

1). Alonso AGUILAR Monteverde (P-2152, 201-334259), active Marxist intellectual.

On 28 Jun 1967 AGUILAR reminded Subject that they and their wives were invited for Saturday evening to the home of Alberto PENICHE (1). (Alberto PENICHE Blanco, P-12294, manager of Ek centrist newspaper El Heraldo de Mexico, and reported as minor contributor to the PCM in 1964.)

2). (Mrs.) Gloria ALFARO, no other traces.

On 5 Feb 1966 Mrs. ALFARO (possibly Gloria) wanted to talk to Subject to congratulate him on a Soviet moon probe (1). On 22 Jun 1966 Gloria ALFARO reminded Subject that they had met at the house of Mrs. SOTO (possibly Graciela, q.v.) on Christmas Eve 1965 and invited Subject to a party. Subject was unable to go but said he would call Gloria for coffee. In 1964 ALFARO gave her telephone as 35-71-30 (listed to Yolanda Vda de CACERES Butrago, Chilapas 130-A, current telephone 25-10-24). (1). Qx

Also on 22 Jun 1966 Gloria ALFARO told Subject she would like to talk with some of the Soviets, and Subject suggested getting together on Friday "after English class" (17). (Comment: ALFARO may have been studying English with Subject at the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores.) On 3 Aug 1966 Gloria and Subject tried to agree on a date to get together, and she said she would like for him to meet a friend (female) of hers who was visiting Mexico from Central America (1).

3). Ofelia ALFARO Lopez (P-11339), professor of economics at UNAM, good friend of the wife of Antonio SARMIENTO (q.v.), social contact with several Soviets.

On 30 Aug 1965 ALFARO invited Sergey Sergeyevich KONSTANTINOV to her house and included Subject and Leonid Vasilievich NIKIFOROV (1).

4). (Dr.) Juan Luis ALVAREZ Gayou, teacher at UNAM and Deputy Director of Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores.
Subject presumably met ALVAREZ at the Instituto, where Subject is believed to have studied English. The first reported contact was on 11 Apr 1966, when they spoke to each other, using the familiar form of address, about having missed each other in Cuernavaca. Subject was invited to ALVAREZ' birthday party. Subject said he would see ALVAREZ the following day when he was going to have class with a new teacher.

On 13 Jun 1966 Professor Mr. ALVAREZ, Juan Luis' father, asked Subject if he would bring the projector to the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores, and Subject said he would. On 12 Jul 1966 ALVAREZ, who had been out of town, asked Subject if he wanted to continue taking lessons, and Subject said yes, he would go there the following day. On 19 Nov 1966 ALVAREZ left a message for Subject to call him at 35-68-96 (listed to Natividad GAMERO de la Fuente, Hamburgo 25). On 22 May 1967 ALVAREZ asked Subject for help in typing a letter in Russian (cf. VIDIELLA). (1).

5. (Ing.) Manuel ANAYA S., employee of Mexican Ministry of Hydraulic Resources, visited the USSR in summer 1966.

On 19 Jul 1966 ANAYA thanked Subject for his visa and said he would get together with Subject when he got back in order to discuss his trip (17).

6. Emilia AROSAMENA Vallarina (P-10933, 201-771073), Panamanian Consul General in Mexico, in contact with several Soviets.

On 15 Nov 1965 Aleksandr Vladimirovich PRIKHODKO said he wanted to introduce Subject to AROSAMENA, because Subject had some questions to ask her. Presumably related is a report that the Panamanian Counselor, Jose B. CALVO, told Subject on 19 Nov 1965 that he had no answer for Subject yet. (1).

7. Miriam AVILA Katz (P-581, 201-814144), employee of Mundus Tours travel agency, about to leave Mexico to marry an American and live in New York.
Subject was first reported in contact with AVILA in April 1966 in connection with travel booking. Subject made (1). On 2 Jun 1966 Subject flirted with her, and said he would invite her to a volleyball game (1). During the rest of 1966 Subject invited her out a few times, told her he was married but that his wife was not in Mexico, asked her to introduce him to some of her friends and especially wanted to know if she knew anyone in the U.S. Embassy. In April 1967 Subject reluctantly agreed to issue a visa to Dr. KUTTLER (q.v.), whose travel AVILA was arranging, and asked as a return favor that she introduce him to some of her friends. (26). In June 1967 Subject reportedly stopped AVILA coming out of work to ask her about the Israeli War (6).

6). Cella BAYARDI Torres, no traces.

On 7 Feb 1966 an unidentified man visited Subject at the Soviet Embassy. This man came to the Embassy in a car driven by a woman, who remained in the car, with license plates registered to Cella BAYARDI Torres, Arquitecto 46, Colonia Escandon, telephone 15-34-02. The phone is listed to Francisca TORRES Vda de BAYARDI. (7).

9). Lella S. BELAVAL, visa officer at U.S. Embassy.

In June 1967 BELAVAL reported that she had been in contact with Subject over visa matters, that Subject had asked her what she did in the evenings, and had whether she spent her off hours with other U.S. Embassy employees, said that he was unmarried. In June 1967 he offered to take her to the U.S. Intan Ballet when it came to Mexico. She has refused his invitations. (27).

10). Carlos BLANCO Solano (P-9328), Federal Security (DFS) agent, now with Judicial Police. In 1960-61 BLANCO invited several U.S. Embassy girls out and offered his services to the U.S. Embassy. BLANCO works for Carlos CASAMADRID Miranda, who is suspected of having a clandestine relationship with KGB officer Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV.
On 1 Nov 1965 BLANCO called Subject at the Soviet Embassy and remarked that they had not seen each other for a long time. Subject said he would call BLANCO the following Wednesday. On 8 Sep 1966 Gracelena (q.v.), who described herself as BLANCO's friend, invited Subject to the baptism of her son Rafael's child and mentioned that BLANCO's wife Magdalena was going. On 10 Nov 1966 BLANCO invited Subject to a party for BLANCO's daughter, said they would first go to the church near Gracelena's house on Tamaulipas. On 6 Dec 1966 BLANCO told Subject that "Comandante Carlos" (presumably CASAMADRID) urgently wanted to see YATSKOV (q.v.), and Subject said he would have YATSKOV call him.

11. Lubomir BLAZIK (P-1730, 201-206043), former Czech Second Secretary and Consul in Mexico.

On 28 Dec 1965 P.A., YATSKOV left a message for BLAZIK that Subject's wife was sick and could not attend the dinner to which the BLAZIKs had invited her.

12. Rosa Martha BRACHO Sanchez (P-12038), left in November 1965 on a scholarship to study ballet in the USSR.

On 21 and 22 Sep 1966 Rosa's mother (fnl) was in contact with Subject in order to talk to him about visa problems of her two daughters who were both studying dance in the USSR. (Name of other daughter is unknown.)

13. Erika KAMMERMAN (P-12843), said to be a reporter with The News (17), but this seems unlikely, no other traces.

On 21 Feb 1966 KAMMERMAN told Subject that she was going out of town the next day but when she got back she wanted to invited Subject and his wife to her house. Subject said he had no word on her papers yet. On 28 Feb 1966 she said she had been in Cozumel, Subject said he still had no word on her papers. She invited Subject to dinner with his wife, and he said he
would call her back. On 10 May 1966 she tried to call Subject, who was out, saying that she wanted to know about the arrival of a man from Russia. On 11 May 1966 Subject told her he still had no answer on her papers. She said she planned to take a business trip to Brussels and Paris in June and mentioned that Elke (LNU) was in Paris visiting her son. On 10 Jun 1966 Subject asked for KAMMERMANN at 18-65-61 and was told she was in Europe for a month (phone listed to importing firm Incomex, S.A., at Isabel la Catolica 45-914). On 6 Jul 1966 Subject called her at 12-78-32 (listed to the Banco de Mexico at Cinco de Mayo 2) and told her he had a document for her. On 11 Jul 1966 she told Subject that she needed his signature on the document, also sent regards to Subject's wife and children. (1).

15. Ernesto CHAZARO Peregrino (P-12818, 201-800-412), assistant security chief of Astilleros de Veracruz, S.A., a shipyard in Veracruz. Said to be the adventurer-type, once worked for the Federal Security Police but was fired because of involvement in arms contraband.

CHAZARO probably did meet Subject on 5 May 1966 in Veracruz. CHAZARO undoubtedly fabricated his story that Subject tried to recruit him after that and set up a 50,000 peso bank account in CHAZARO's name. (30).
Subject's contact with CHENCINSKY has presumably been connected with Subject's taking English at the Instituto. On 24 Mar 1966 CHENCINSKY tried unsuccessfully to reach Subject. On 4 Jul 1966 CHENCINSKY told Subject that Janet (LNU, apparently Subject's teacher) had been unable to fix her working papers and had had to leave Mexico and asked if Subject's classes could be postponed. Subject agreed and said he would like to talk to CHENCINSKY. (1).

6. David F. COOLBAUGH (P-12579, 201-796142), American employed with United Nations in Mexico, co-director of geological project that two Soviets were also assigned to.

8. Margaret (aka Magre) FEDOR (P-12967), no other traces.

On 17 Mar 1966 FEDOR invited Subject to go on a Sunday outing with a group of friends whom Subject also knew. She mentioned that she was studying French in the evenings and was about to begin Russian classes at the United Nations. Subject said he would call her at home later. On 28 Mar 1966 Subject told FEDOR that he had stopped by her house with theater tickets but she had been out. Rebeca (LNU) had told FEDOR that the play was good. FEDOR told Subject that on Saturday there would be a discussion with Jose CORNEJO (no identifiable traces), who had been in South America, and Subject said he would go. On 8 Jun 1966 FEDOR told Subject that she
was going to go to the U.S. on vacation and mentioned that Daniel SEIN (no traces) had asked about Subject. Subject said he would call her later.

On 24 Aug 1966 PEDOR told Subject that there would be a discussion about India at her house on 26 Aug, and Subject said he would try to go. Sixx Subject asked her whether she knew the Soviets working on a United Nations project, but she said she did not. (Comment: PEDOR may work at the United Nations in Mexico City.)

12. Enu FLORES, man employed at Mex-American travel agency.

Subject was first reported in contact with FLORES in Sep 1965 in connection with travel reservations, and for about a year Subject continued to discuss travel arrangements and at the same time flirt with FLORES and also send regards to Susana LNU, who worked with her. On 8 Sep 1966 Subject arranged to meet FLORES in front of a movie theater. Then there was no report of contact between them, until on 13 Jun 1967 FLORES told Subject that she had a new job and asked him to call her at 27-85-50, extension 18 (no Station listing of this number). She mentioned that she had not seen him for a while. (1).
27. (D). Rafael FUSONI Alordi (P-5119, 201-237904), Argentine diplomat, former KGB agent. In occasional social contact with Soviets, primarily through diplomatic functions.

On 1 Jun 1967 Subject and HASSAN discussed consular affairs and also talked about getting together for tennis the following week (1).

On 29 Jun 1966 HERNANDEZ told Subject that his class would be postponed for a week because Sarita (LNU) was sick (1).

27.28. Lee HIGGINS, male, no traces.

On 19 May 1966 HIGGINS tried unsuccessfully to call Subject (1).

29.27. Vincent HODGINS, British citizen, sales manager of Canadian Pacific Airlines in Mexico City.

On 28 Oct 1966 HODGINS contacted Subject, saying that BRADLEY (J. E. Ralph BRADLEY, regional sales manager of Canadian Pacific) had met Subject the night before, and HODGINS wanted to discuss business with Subject. HODGINS offered to visit HODGINS in his office (1).

(Comment: The Soviets began flying with Canadian Pacific when a new Aeroflot flight was put in service to Canada.) On 3 Nov 1966 HODGINS gave Subject information on flights and Subject said he would stop by his office the next week. On 24 Feb 1967 Subject was reported to have an appointment with HODGINS (1).

29.28. Jan JAKOWIEC (P-9097, 201-250618), Polish Second Secretary and Consul in Mexico.

30.29. Karen JOFFER, no other traces.

On 16 Aug 1966 Subject apologized to JOFFER that he had been busy the week before but said he could see her at 1630 hours that day (1). (Comment: This could well be a routine visa request.)

In Apr 1966 Subject was reported making a dental appointment with the tourist agency representative, KUTTLER (1). In Apr 1967 when Miriam AVILA Katz was trying to get a visa for KUTTLER, Subject spoke scathingly of him and said he would not give him a visa unless he fulfilled all the requirements (1). Subject explained that he had once gone to KUTTLER to have some dental work done and that KUTTLER had charged him too much, and that this was why he did not want to issue him the visa (26).

32. Jacques LEMAIRE, representative of French steamship company in Mexico, scheduled to leave Mexico soon, member of French Club, where he probably met Subject.

On 14 Jul 1967 LEMAIRE invited Subject to the French Embassy reception that day, but Subject was unable to go. LEMAIRE sent regards to Subject's wife (1).

33. Yuliya LIPOVSKAYA, probably identical with the Julia YASCHIN listed in the telephone book as living at Mexicali 175, phone 15-35-47, presumably the wife of Salk Solomon (aka Julio) YASCHIN.
On 30 Nov 1965 LIPOVSKAYA contacted Subject and told him a long, rambling story about her relatives. Subject was evidently interested, urged her to visit the USSR and suggested she come to the Soviet Embassy to talk to him. On 24 Dec 1965 LIPOVSKAYA tried to call Subject but was referred by mistake to another Valentina. On 8 and 20 Jan 1966 she asked Subject if he had heard from her relative, the soccer player Lev YASCHIN, but Subject still had no news for her. (1).

34. Tatiana RAKOFF Vda de MARCAND (P-370), widow of Rene MARCAND Boisselet, former professor at UNAM and director of the Yugoslav Cultural Institute. She is evidently a native Russian, but French citizen.

On 9 Jan 1967 it appeared that she had asked Subject for a visa. She also told him she had the information on the man who had been consul, but Subject cut her off and said that it would be better for them to get together to discuss it. On 25 Feb 1965 she told Subject she would help him join a club. On 16 May 1967 she asked Subject if he had called the Poles, but he said he had forgotten and would do it right away. (1).

On 2 Jun 1967 OBREGON, who appeared to be a friend of Subject's, told Subject he would like to invite the Bolshoy troups to his house, but Subject said they would have little time in Mexico City. OBREGON also asked Subject if he could get him some caviar, and Subject said he would bring him some back from Moscow after his vacation. (1).

39. David ORNELAS, of Mundus Tours.

ORNELAS has been Subject's principal contact at Mundus Tours in regard to making travel bookings. There has been no indication of anything more than a business relationship between them, except that in June 1966 Subject gave ORNELAS some magazines. (1).

She added that Alfonso (LNU) would be at the Cafe Jujuy that afternoon at 1700, and Subject said he would try to go and would see Gloria there. On 13 Jun 1967 Gloria told Subject that her daughter did not want to work for Ralph (LNU) any more, because they wanted to send her to Pittsburgh. Subject said he could not go to the party Saturday that was to be held at the home of Ernesto ACEVEDO (no xxxxxx identifiable traces). On 12 Jul 1967 Gloria told Subject that she had everything

On 9 Nov 1966 Graciela called Subject, started to chat about having a toothache and that she had tried to call him before, but Subject cut her off and said he would call her the next day and to say hello to everyone. On 10
Nov 1966 Carlos BLANCO invited Subject to a party and said they would first go to the church near Gracelita's house on Tamaulipas. (1). (One Alfredo SOTO, no traces, is listed at Tamaulipas 115.)

On 20 May 1967 Subject and Boris Aleksandrovich CHMYKHOV visited ZAREBSKI in connection with the dacha, and on 15 Jul 1967 Subject and CHMYKHOV visited the factory. (19). (Comment: Subject and CHMYKHOV had known each other before in Cuba, and both had mostkomm responsibilities for the dacha, so their going to Cuernavaca together is not remarkable, although CHMYKHOV is a GRU officer.)

1. Forwarded herewith is a Personality Assessment Questionnaire on LOGINOV prepared by LIREALM-1 in February 1969.

2. By virtue of membership in the same club in which they are both active participants in the same activity, LIREALM-1 has known LOGINOV for a little over two years. In this club they have several mutual contacts. As a result LIREALM-1 has met LOGINOV several times at social activities in the homes of these contacts. Although LOGINOV has never been a formal target for LIREALM-1, the relationship has been close enough and of sufficient duration for LIREALM-1 to fill out a meaningful Personality Assessment Questionnaire.

PERSONALITY ASSESSMENT QUESTIONNAIRE
PERSONALITY ASSESSMENT QUESTIONNAIRE

1. This is a new, experimental version of the Personality Assessment Questionnaire (sometimes informally called the PRQ III) which has been in use for several years. This new form is largely a checklist and thus requires far less essay-type reporting than the previous form.

2. For a number of years, our operational psychologists have been developing a system for indirect assessment of target personalities. The system employs—in lieu of psychological tests and interviews—observations of appearance, manner, and style of behavior. Such observations are used as if they were items in a psychological test, and like test items, are weighted and analyzed to yield a personality profile. Working from the profile, operational psychologists describe the target personality's basic aptitudes, attitudes, motives and susceptibilities. The goal of the assessment is to identify feasible means of influencing the target person.

3. Reliability is vastly increased when two or more observers complete this questionnaire independently. All items need not be completed; in fact, it is a rare case where contact is sufficient to complete it fully. You are encouraged to guess where complete information is lacking. Mark such items with a "G," instead of the customary check mark or "X." Thus, an observer with very limited contact can be expected to enter more "G's" than "X's."
4. Before completing the enclosed PAQ form, please provide the following information about yourself:

Age: 39  Sex: M  Nationality: US

Social-cultural background:
Middle-class

How often have you observed the target individual?
3 to 4 times per month over two years

When did you last observe the target individual?
Last week (week of 2 Feb 1969)

9.02.19 Is there anything about his eating habits or manners that requires
special mention? If so, please describe:

9.03 Overall impression of eating and smoking behavior. (Check the
most appropriate description.)

9.03.01 A hearty eater with well-defined preferences. He eats and smokes
with considerable gusto but tends to be a little on the coarse and
boorish side. It is rather easy to imagine him eating huge sand-
wiches and drinking beer with the boys at the neighborhood bar.

9.03.02 A heavy eater with limited preferences. He eats and smokes
with gusto but his manners are definitely coarse and boorish.
It is rather easy to imagine him becoming quite sharp with a
waiter who serves him unfamiliar food or a dish prepared in
an unfamiliar way.

9.03.03 A sensual eater who knows all the restaurants and their native
specialties. He is very anxious to have others try dishes he
has discovered. He eats with obvious pleasure, savors his
smokes, and though rarely gauche, he is more aware of his
food than his manners. It is easy to imagine him cooking and
serving special dishes to his friends.
9.03.04 A sensual eater who tends to eat by himself when possible. He seems to eat all types of food and has something of the air of a glutton about him. He eats with obvious pleasure, savors his smokes and afterwards will linger alone at a table with self-satisfaction. It is easy to imagine him hovering alone over the buffet at a cocktail party savoring the tidbits.

9.03.05 A conventional eater who usually goes along with the crowd. He probably has food allergies that prevent him from eating certain foods. He gives the impression of enjoying smoking more than eating but his table manners are adapted to whatever situation he is in. It is easy to imagine him taking an indigestion pill in the privacy of his room.

9.03.06 A conventional eater who always goes along with the crowd. He eats with little relish and rarely mentions anything about his likes or dislikes. He smokes at every opportunity, but more mechanically than with pleasure. He usually tries to adopt his manners to the situation but may be a little awkward and obvious in doing so. It is easy to imagine him grabbing a bite at a sidewalk stand at any time of day.

9.03.07 A gourmet eater who has marked and varied sophisticated food tastes. Dining is quite a ritual with him, and atmosphere and service are almost as important as the food. He is graceful and cultured at table and smokes in the same manner. It is easy to imagine him dressing for dinner, enjoying fine wines and food by candlelight.

9.03.08 An unconventional eater, a man who "eats like a bird." He eats in a preoccupied way, obviously indifferent to his food and surroundings. It would not be surprising to learn he was a food faddist (vegetarian, health foods, etc.).

9.03.09 None of these descriptions really fit. I would describe him as:
9.04 Drinking:

9.04.01 Does he drink? Not at all Average X
A little Heavily

Obviously looks hung over and is quite vocal about how bad he feels ___

9.04.20 Is there anything special about his drinking habits that requires mention? If so, please describe:

9.05 Overall impression of drinking behavior: (Check the most appropriate)

9.05.01 A hearty, heavy drinker who holds his liquor well. He is always rather boisterous, and when he drinks, there is little change in behavior. ___

9.05.02 A heavy drinker who often gives the impression he can drink others under the table: When he drinks, there is little change in behavior, but there is a hint that he could get quite mean if provoked. ___

9.05.03 A steady drinker who obviously enjoys being "tight." In a way he can be somewhat charming when drunk and can get away with a bit of the "life of the party" routine. ___

9.05.04 A steady drinker who becomes somewhat more maudlin when drunk or tight. Tends to tell people how much he likes them and sometimes asks others whether they like him. Gives an impression that he could become quite disgusting if he got very drunk. ___
9.05.05 A steady drinker who holds his liquor very well. He always remains quite dignified and usually maintains his poise even though others are becoming quite drunk or tight. He still remains part of the crowd, however—that is, he gives few signs of being disgusted or bored.

9.05.06 A light drinker who paces his drinks. He seems to drink only because it is socially necessary. As a party progresses he tends to become aloof and distant. Is likely to continue to talk about his work even when it is inappropriate.

9.05.07 A light drinker who tapers off as the evening progresses. Usually manages to keep a sophisticated aloofness from others. Often singles out and associates with someone rather like himself. As the party progresses, he shows obvious distaste for anything he considers crude or boisterous. Often becomes quite sarcastic about others' behavior.

9.05.08 A very light drinker who either drinks only because he has to or refuses to drink at all. Is usually not really a part of the party and is obviously annoyed when others bring him in against his wishes. Tends to be solitary and sometimes will leave unobtrusively when the opportunity presents.

9.05.09 None of these descriptions really fit. I would describe him as:

10.02.08 Is there anything unusual or striking about his gait or manner of walking? If so, please describe:

10.03 Overall impression of driving and walking behaviors
(Check the most appropriate description.)

10.03.01 An active, alert individual with a purposeful stride who appears to have a very practical mind. He enjoys "fixing things," appears to have sound knowledge of automobiles, and drives in a relaxed efficient manner.

10.03.02 An active individual who is somewhat standoffish (or negative) toward others. His stride is fast and intent. He appears to have a practical mind, is quite possessive and protective and is reluctant to share his possessions with others. He "fixes things" in a matter-of-fact way, appears to have good knowledge of automobiles, and drives in a determined (sometimes even hostile) but efficient manner.

10.03.03 An active, alert individual with a free-and-easy stride who appears most of the time to be in good humor. Seldom tries to fix things, but is often quite good at getting others to fix things for him. He appears to have little knowledge of automobiles but drives in a relaxed, efficient manner.

10.03.04 An active individual who has a cautious tinge to his walk as though he is easily embarrassed or easily startled. He appears rather helpless and awkward when he has to "fix things." He evidently has little knowledge of automobiles and drives in a careful (sometimes tense) but efficient manner.

10.03.05 A well-controlled and attentive individual who walks in something of a clipped, formal manner. Although generally practical, he seldom will do anything by "feel." He must read up and prepare himself when required to "fix things." He appears to have acquired considerable knowledge about automobiles but drives in a somewhat mechanical or highly controlled manner.

10.03.06 A well-controlled individual who is often somewhat preoccupied even in his walk. When he takes time to "fix things" he does so with intensity and precision. He is often very well read about automobiles and cares for his car or sees that it is cared for meticulously. However, when involved in conver-
sation or otherwise preoccupied, he can sometimes be quite a dangerous driver.

10.03.07 A well-controlled individual who has a glide (or grace) in his walk. He has little or no interest in "fixing things" but usually knows the best places to get things done and is inclined to be quite particular in how things are done for him. He appears to have relatively little knowledge of the mechanics of an automobile, but appreciates and takes good care of a good automobile. He drives with confidence, but usually at a fast pace with not too much awareness of others.

10.03.08 A rather nervous and temperamental person who walks rapidly and rather awkwardly. He has little or no interest in "fixing things" and is inclined to ignore or throw away things that do not work. He appears to have little interest in or knowledge about automobiles and his driving shows it. It is sometimes frightening to ride with him.

10.03.09 None of these descriptions really fit. I would describe him as:

11.01.05 Have you ever seen him lose his temper? No Yes

If Yes, give a short description of the incident, including how he reacted.
11.02 Humor:

11.02.01 Is he a person whom you: Have never seen tease anyone
Have frequently seen tease someone
Cannot imagine ever teasing anyone
Consider his tendency to tease like that of most people

11.02.02 Is he a person: Who obviously cannot take teasing
Whom most people enjoy teasing
Whom most people would never consider teasing
Who obviously likes to be teased

11.02.03 His sense of humor is: About like that of most people
Notably absent

11.02.04 Does he tell jokes and anecdotes?

Sometimes

11.02.05 As a story teller, he is: Very good
Average
Poor

11.02.06 Is he more inclined to tell a story: To a group of people
Quietly to a friend or acquaintance
Only when encouraged

11.03 Overall impression of temperament and sense of humor:
(Check the most appropriate description.)

11.03.01 He is a hearty, rollicking fellow who laughs with gusto and pleasure. His humor is forthright, not subtle, and although he is sometimes loud, he is rarely unpleasant or objectionable. Most of the time, his good humor is contagious.

11.03.02 He is a hearty fellow who, when he laughs, does so with considerable gusto. However, he is frequently dour and sometimes intolerant and somewhat humorless. His humor is direct, even crude, and at times, inappropriate. He tends to be the kind of person who laughs more at people than with people.
11.03.03 He is a good-humored fellow who sometimes can be considered jolly and carefree. His humor is clever and well timed. He is quite sensitive to the moods and feelings of others and often can do a good job appropriately livening up a party. Although something of a tease, he is never cruel or insensitive.

11.03.04 He is generally a rather quiet and somewhat complacent person who, at times, can be surprisingly gay and carefree. However, when gay, he sometimes overdoes it and causes some strain for those around him. His humor is often clever but he can be quite sarcastic and even biting on occasion.

11.03.05 He is an urbane fellow, generally quite conventional and appropriate. He does not necessarily appear to be a humorless person, but he seldom displays his sense of humor. It is sometimes difficult to tell whether he is in a good humor, because of the way he covers or controls his feelings. His humor is more studied than spontaneous yet it is never crude or inappropriate.

11.03.06 He is a dour and humorless person, always serious and intense. It is difficult to joke around him partly because he is not responsive and partly because he seems to disapprove.

11.03.07 He is a sensitive, sophisticated fellow with a subtle wit. He can be quite charming and amusing in the right sort of setting. However, there is something of an aristocratic quality to his sense of humor and he can be quite condescending towards people who do not understand or appreciate his sense of humor.

11.03.08 He is an arty, somewhat cynical person who can be quite flippant at times. His humor tends to be a bit far out. He seems to have private jokes he shares with intimates. It is sometimes difficult to tell whether he is being amusing or subtly hostile.

11.03.09 None of these fit. I would describe him as:

Figure ___ Personality ___
Legs ___ Have no idea ___

12.01.11 Have you ever heard him described in any way by a woman? Yes ___
If Yes, what did she say? No ___

athletic, virile, manly.

12.02 Overall impression: Which of the following best describes him?

12.02.01 He is an earthy, lusty man who shows little embarrassment about sex. He treats women appropriately, but makes little effort to conceal his admiration and attraction. He appears virile and self-confident with women, and most women seem to like it. ___

12.02.02 He is an earthy, lusty man who on occasion can be crude or even vulgar. He treats women rather harshly, and can become quite pushy when attracted to a woman. He seems to be very proud of his virility. Many women would be offended or rebuffed by his aggressiveness, but this does not seem to bother him. ___
12.02.03 He is a somewhat sensual, rather soft man who is very considerate of women. He is prone to hold a woman's hand overly long when talking to her and frequently puts his arms around women he admires. He often uses flattery and compliments but does so rather graciously. Most women usually like his attentiveness.

12.02.04 He is a sensual person, but is embarrassed and insecure about it. He is a rather soft man who tries hard to be inoffensive. However, he will frequently follow attractive women with his eyes when he thinks no one is looking. He is also prone to brush against or touch women "accidentally" whenever he gets a chance.

12.02.05 He is a self-confident, rather polished person who is proper and conventional with either men or women. He is always considerate and polite with all women and it is difficult to ascertain what his sexual attitudes and interests might be. In a group, he always behaves according to protocol and usually can be quite efficient in doing so.

12.02.06 He is a self-confident and precise person who has something of the air of a professional man about him. He is polite, almost to a fault, and is inclined to go out of his way to light a woman's cigarette or see that she is properly taken care of. Nevertheless, he shows considerable distance in his relations with women. Sometimes his formality is out of place, but he will rarely, if ever, change his manners or procedures to fit the situation.

12.02.07 He is a charming, urbane person and both friendly and sophisticated. He deals with women in a cultured way but shows little sensuality or sexual inappropriateness. He is neat, even dapper, and can be quite fastidious. Most of his relations with women appear to be quite platonic. He is the kind of person who likely has several very close friends who are women.

12.02.08 He is a somewhat shy and indifferent person whom some people consider odd or unusual. He shows little or no interest in women in public. In general, he is a preoccupied person who only seeks out people with similar interests. There is an ascetic, asexual air about him most of the time.

12.02.09 None of these fit. I would describe him as:

SUBJECT: Subject of 201-238943

1. On 29 January 1969, Samuel J. KARTASUK met with Subject to deliver the recruitment pitch as advised by Refs. Subject initially refused to cooperate on the grounds that he does not want to get involved in this type of business and that he had given the same answer to "the other side." He readily admitted that he has been under intensive development by Valentin LOGINOV (201-285412) to spot Mexican students who eventually may go to WOLADY; he denied, however, that he has ever accepted the money LOGINOV continually offers him. Subject volunteered that Yuriy CHERNYSH (201-825743) is currently developing one of Subject's students (which we knew), and that Subject would like to foil CHERNYSH's attempt.

2. In spite of Subject's expressions of reluctance to be recruited he answered a number of questions put to him by KARTASUK and he agreed to a follow-up meeting on 7 February. At that meeting, he submitted to more intensive questioning about his background, family, and his association with the FJSTEAL community. There were no attempts at evasion and many of his answers were corroborated by information that was already known from other sources. Subject agreed to continue meeting clandestinely with KARTASUK and to provide additional information on his contacts with LOGINOV and other members of the KGB.

3. Subject's activities immediately following the pitch were monitored closely by LIEMBRACE and by LIFKAT for the week between the two meetings. The second meeting was counter-surveilled with negative results. Although the recruitment is still tenuous, we believe that it can be firmly cemented and that Subject is committed whether or not he is ready to admit it to himself at this point.

Summary

1. As reported by Ref A, Samuel J. KARTASUK succeeded in meeting with Subject in Acapulco and in spending nearly a full week with him for the purpose of establishing rapport and assessing him for possible recruitment per Ref B. Assessment by both KARTASUK and LIOYAL-1 indicates that Subject is essentially apolitical with attitudes as pro-West as pro-Soviet. KARTASUK believes, however, that he could be recruited to work against FJSTAL intelligence if he were made to believe that he is not working against the FJSTAL people.

2. Recent LIFEAT reveals that Subject is having marital problems and that he consented to see a psychiatrist after his wife made good her threats to leave. According to Subject, he was diagnosed as "psychopathic" with problems stemming from his mother's possessive attitude. The character assessment by KARTASUK agrees with that of LIOYAL-1 but neither has called Subject "psychopathic."

3. While we recognize possible problems, we feel that a recruitment attempt should be made by KARTASUK. Following the recruitment we plan to have KARTASUK sever further relationship with Subject and to handle the case from inside where it can be monitored more closely.

Meeting

4. As reported previously, KARTASUK went to Acapulco in early November and succeeded in meeting Subject, whose plans for a vacation there with his family were confirmed by LIFET. The "chance meeting" came about naturally in the hotel lobby when Subject's precocious four year old daughter approached KARTASUK on the morning of 5 November.

5. KARTASUK used an alias and played the role of a successful public relations man from WOLADY who was recently widowed. He had come to Mexico as a long-term tourist to help piece together his shattered world. There was instant rapport between KARTASUK and both Subject and his wife which permitted him to spend almost the entire week alone with them. As a result, KARTASUK got to know them intimately and to probe naturally into Subject's character, politics, and family relationship.

Assessment

6. To both KARTASUK and LIOVAL-1, Subject appears to be essentially political or, at least, politically naive. He expresses simultaneously admiration for both FJSTAL, where he lived for 17 years, and for WOLADY, where he would like to live. He believes that the political system in each is right for each and that neither system would work for the other. He feels that both the FJSTAL and WOLADY citizens want peace and are basically good but that both are victims of their political systems. Although Subject wanted at one time to return to FJSTAL, he knows that he has a better life in Mexico.

7. Subject is an easy-going, extremely pleasant extrovert with a wide circle of friends whom he sees frequently. He has few scruples in regard to marital fidelity and, while his wife is not happy with his affairs, they have apparently arrived at some sort of working agreement on the subject.

8. Subject has told both KARTASUK and LIOVAL-1 that he earns about $4000 (M) per month and is, therefore, forced to live on a modest scale. While he would like to live better, he is not ambitious and does not let work interfere with pleasure. LIOVAL-1 feels that Subject would find easy money a great temptation, that Subject could be influenced fairly easily, and that principles would not stand in his way.

9. With KARTASUK, Subject spoke of his mother on several occasions. He accuses her of possessiveness and claims that it is for this reason that he rebels against anyone's possessing him, including his wife. This problem is apparently genuine as confirmed by LIFET in recent take. Subject consented to psychiatric treatment when his wife made good her threat to leave him (though she returned after several days). Per LIFET, Subject said that he has been diagnosed as psychopathic and that the psychiatrist lays the blame at his mother's feet.

Conclusions

10. LIOVAL-1 has assessed Subject since early March 1968 and KARTASUK assessed him during a week of uninterrupted close association. Both assessments are virtually identical in all major respects. There is little doubt that Subject does, indeed, have some personality adjustment problems and that, if he is recruited, he will require firm handling. Neither KARTASUK nor LIOVAL-1, however, describes Subject as "psychopathic."
11. KARTASUK believes there is a reasonably good possibility that Subject would consent to recruitment, if the approach were made in such a way as to make him believe that he is working against FJSTEAL intelligence meddling and not against the FJSTEAL people and system. Additionally, we believe it may be possible to introduce stability into Subject's life, to give him firm direction and goals, and to turn some of his liabilities into assets.

12. Following successful recruitment by KARTASUK, the case will be handled by an inside case officer so that developments can be monitored more closely through other assets and the risk reduced.

1. Transmitted herewith is a report prepared by Keith R. LEVENDERIS which details how LOGINOV used Erast G. GAZIYEV (201-795374) to spot and set up a meeting for assessment purposes with Jorge ARTAS Duerba, a teacher at the Mexican North American Cultural Institute in Mexico City. The Soviets have long had an interest in the Institute and its personnel because most of newly arrived Americans study Spanish there. GAZIYEV has attended the Institute since his arrival in Mexico, first studying Spanish and then English.

2. We are forwarding this report because it is a typical illustration of LOGINOV's modus operandi and because it clearly shows that GAZIYEV at least has the status of a KGB cooptee.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Jorge ARIAS Buerba

1. Subject is a 26 year old Mexican citizen (although he looks to be in his 30's). He is a Spanish teacher at the Mexican-North American Institute and since the fall of 1967 has held a second job as the director of the Community Services Program at the American School. In April 1967 he married an American citizen from the Chicago area named Donna WEINTHALER (phonetic). They live at Juanacatlan 15, which is just around the corner from the Soviet Embassy. Home phone is 15-28-49.

2. Subject was recommended as a Spanish tutor in August 1966 by Enrique GUTIERREZ Martinez (P-12667), who was then C/SB's Spanish tutor. GUTIERREZ was subsequently recruited by C/SB as a utility agent, but has since been dropped because he is related to other Station assets. On GUTIERREZ's recommendation, I began taking private Spanish lessons from Subject in August 1966. I found Subject an excellent teacher and continued taking lessons from him until December 1966. In March 1967, my wife and I had Subject as a teacher in Spanish courses we took at the Mexican-North American Institute. I have maintained intermittent social contact with Subject since March 1967, and my wife has become friendly with Subject's wife, having visited her at her apartment two or three times and having had her to our home during the day an equal number of times. I have also

H/MATT #16 H/MMA-35465; but 1 CS COPT 201-2854/2
kept informed to some extent about Subject through his younger brother, Javier ARIAS Buerba, from whom I have been taking Spanish lessons since July 1967.

3. Subject was a casual contact of Station officer Olivia G. RAGNITI in 1965 and 1966. Other than a file card noting this contact, there is no station traces on either Jorge or Javier ARIAS Buerba.

4. Subject and I from the beginning have had a very friendly and informal relationship. He is an intelligent person with a friendly, open personality and a good sense of humor. Politically, he is pro-American to the point that he magnifies our strengths and positive qualities and tends to minimize or overlook negative factors in our society. Subject knows I am with the Political Section of the Embassy and that I have been in the Soviet Union. We have consequently gotten onto the topic of Russians and Communism several times, and he has always come out a strong anti-Communist. He has one brother and two sisters living in the United States. The brother is married to an American and lives in Virginia, where he is in the construction business. One of the sisters is also married to an American and lives in California (I believe San Francisco). The second sister is married to a Polish immigrant and lives with him in Chicago. The sister in California is a naturalized American citizen. The brother and the sister in Chicago are not.

5. On 24 April 1967, LIENVOY reported the following call from GAZIEV to LOGINOV:

GAZ: "I saw him, he arrived yesterday."
LOG: "Excellent. Then I'd like to see you to discuss certain things."

GAZ: "Then I can come there tomorrow?"

LOG: "No, better Wednesday."

GAZ: "All right. He usually comes there at 6 o'clock. He got married and came here with his wife. Now they look for an apartment. I'll go there on the 10th, because I want to attend courses in English. This week I'll be busy."

LOG: "OK, until the next then."

6. From this conversation, it appeared that GAZIYEV was probably talking about Subject, since:

(a) GAZIYEV had been taking Spanish at the Mexican-North American Institute and I knew from Subject that Subject had had GAZIYEV in one of his classes, that Subject occasionally chatted with GAZIYEV after class, and that GAZIYEV had once given Subject an invitation to a Consular night at the Soviet Embassy (although Subject told me he had not gone).

(b) Subject had gotten married that month.

(c) Subject had just returned to Mexico with his bride.

(d) Subject and his wife were looking for an apartment.

(e) Subject normally arrived at the Institute at 1800 to teach evening Spanish classes.

7. Prior to this reported telephone conversation, I had considered using Subject as an access agent against GAZIYEV, but had decided not to approach Subject on the matter unless there was evidence that his relationship with GAZIYEV was developing into something more than occasional chats between classes. I did not see much potential in approaching Subject before this with the idea of having him deliberately cultivate a friendship with GAZIYEV, as I felt Subject was living
such a busy and hectic life that I would get very little out of him. Prior to his marriage, he was keeping such a hectic schedule between his Institute and private classes that he wasn't sleeping or eating properly and was having increasing problems with his health. If anything, his pace and health problems increased after his marriage and his taking of the job with the American School (although he gave up most of his private classes).

8. Since the GAZIYEV-LOGINOV conversation made Subject's relations with the Soviets look much more interesting, I attempted to find out what I could about them from Subject. For a number of reasons, however—including my going to the States in June—we were not able to get together until 11 July. On that date I took Subject to a belated "bachelor's lunch" at a little Spanish restaurant downtown.

9. The lunch was disappointing and, for me, misleading. I was certain that if given the opportunity, Subject would voluntarily tell me if his relationship with GAZIYEV had developed any further. When I casually brought the conversation around to GAZIYEV, however, Subject simply told me that GAZIYEV was still studying at the Institute and that he still occasionally chatted with him in the halls or over a cup of coffee in one of the near-by coffee shops during the 20-minute break between the two evening classes. Subject commented that he enjoyed talking with GAZIYEV, as he was a simpatico, interesting guy, as well as an outstanding Spanish student. He also added that they never talked politics. In reply to an offhand question about whether he had met any other Soviets through GAZIYEV, Subject
said that he had not. My inclination was to believe Subject, and I went away thinking that either GAZIYEV and LOGINOV had been talking about someone else over the phone or that they had never gone beyond the stage of simply talking about Subject.

10. On 1 November 1967, I ran into Subject and his brother Javier in Sanborns-Insurgentes. They were about to have a quick lunch and insisted that I join them for a cup of coffee. As soon as we sat down, Subject told me he had a problem and would like my advice. He said GAZIYEV had given him an invitation to the 7 November celebration of the Revolution at the Soviet Embassy, and although he would like to go for the experience, he was very concerned that his name would be put on "the black list" at the U.S. Embassy if he went. He said that he had tried to call me at the Embassy after he got the invitation to ask my advice, but had been told I was out of town. (I was in El Paso from 25-29 October.) He stated that if he had not been able to reach me in the next day or two, he was going to simply walk into the Embassy and ask to see someone from the "security department" about his predicament. What did I think he should do?

11. I told Subject to relax and forget about going to the U.S. Embassy, as the Embassy would not give him any advice other than to tell him that it was entirely his own business whether he went to the Soviet reception or not. Besides, I asked, what made Subject think his name would be put on a "black list" if he went. Subject replied that he didn't know how the U.S. Embassy did it, but "everyone knew" the U.S. Embassy obtained the names of everyone who went in and out of
the Soviet Embassy. Moreover, he said, even if the U.S. Embassy refused to give him any advice, at least it would make a record of his visit and anyone who was ever interested would know his heart was in the right place. He simply did not want and couldn't afford to get into any trouble with the U.S. Embassy, he said. After all, he had an American wife, he might want to go to the States to study sometime, and they might even want to go to the States to live someday. Seeing that Subject was indeed very serious, I became more serious myself and told him that just so he wouldn't worry, I'd write a memo to the proper Embassy department stating for the sake of the record that Subject had told me he planned to attend a Soviet Embassy reception, but wished the U.S. Embassy to know he was doing it solely out of curiosity and was in no way in sympathy with the Soviet Union. Subject seemed greatly relieved and thanked me very much.

12. Seizing of the fact that GAZIYEV had given Subject the invitation, I asked if Subject saw much of him anymore. Subject replied that yes, he still saw him occasionally, as GAZIYEV was now studying English at the Institute. Subject added, on his own initiative, that he had also been to GAZIYEV's apartment twice and had met another Soviet there on one occasion. He said that the first time he went to GAZIYEV's was shortly before he (Subject) got married (Subject was married about mid-April 1967) and the second time was shortly after his marriage, as he and his wife had gone to dinner at the GAZIYEV's. Subject finished eating about this time, and since he was in a hurry and had his brother with him, I didn't try to question him any further, but decided to wait and have a second go at him alone another
time.

13. My wife and I entertained Subject and his wife at our home on 27 November, but the evening was not meant to and did not afford an opportunity to discuss the Soviets any further. Subject did tell me, however, that he had not gone to the 7 November Soviet reception after all, because, despite by assurances that there was no reason for him not to go, he felt it was simply safer to stay away from the Soviet Embassy altogether. At my suggestion, we agreed to get together for lunch sometime in the near future.

14. For various reasons, including the poor state of Subject's health when I called him one day in January, we did not get together for the lunch until 7 March. This time, I played it straight with Subject, told him that I was interested in anything he could tell me about GAZIYEV and the other Soviet he had met, and questioned him closely regarding the details. Subject was completely cooperative, and I am satisfied he answered my questions to the best of his ability. It seemed to me, and still does, that there was only one possible reason why Subject had not told me on 11 July what he subsequently told me on 1 November (i.e., that he had been to GAZIYEV's home twice and on one occasion had met another Soviet there). This was that he felt somewhat guilty about going to GAZIYEV's and meeting the other Soviet there, and as long as I didn't push him too hard (which I didn't on 11 July), he felt more comfortable ignoring it. The reason he so readily mentioned the two visits and the other Soviet on 1 November was, I think, that he was genuinely concerned not to "get into any trouble" with the U.S.
Embassy over-attending the Soviet Embassy reception, wished to impress me with his sincerity about whose side he was on, and felt obliged to completely clear the record by mentioning the visits to GAZIYEV's home and meeting the other Soviet there.

15. Subject stated that GAZIYEV had invited him to his apartment for dinner about a month before he (Subject) went to Chicago to get married. This means that the dinner took place about mid-March 1967. Subject said he had expected to find only GAZIYEV and his wife in the apartment, but that a third person was there when Subject arrived. Subject said GAZIYEV introduced the third person as Valentin "something." When I asked if the last name were LOGINOV, Subject immediately reacted and said he was almost positive that was it. Subject's description of the Soviet also fit LOGINOV. GAZIYEV stated that LOGINOV was with the Embassy (Subject couldn't remember in what capacity) and described LOGINOV as a good friend. Subject said that the evening started off very casually, with LOGINOV expressing interest in the Spanish courses at the Mexican-North American Institute. LOGINOV, who Subject noted spoke almost as good Spanish as most of the Spanish teachers at the Institute, said he'd like to get a certificate in Spanish from the Institute and asked Subject if he could help him enroll, choose the best course for him to start with, etc. Subject replied that he'd be happy to, although it didn't seem to him that LOGINOV needed much instruction in Spanish. LOGINOV simply laughed this off, and it was agreed LOGINOV would drop around to the Institute sometime soon.

LOGINOV, who took the lead in the conversation most of the evening, then began to ask Subject questions which left Subject
with "no doubt" that he (LOGINOV) was trying to feel Subject out on his political views. Subject said that he couldn't remember most of LOGINOV's questions, but he did recall that LOGINOV began the feeling-out procedure by asking Subject if he didn't find that the Americans were much poorer at learning Spanish than other nationalities. He also made various derogatory remarks about the extent of American influence in Mexico. Subject said that after about ten minutes, LOGINOV's purpose became so blatantly obvious, that he (Subject) stopped the conversation and told LOGINOV that before they went any farther, he thought LOGINOV should know that he was talking to someone who was "100% capitalist," completely pro-American, and had absolutely no sympathy with Communism. (While this sounds awfully blunt and Subject was unquestionably trying to make himself look good in my eyes, the fact of the matter is that Subject does tend to be a bit blunt at times, and knowing his ideological leanings, I would not put it past him to have said exactly this.) Subject said that LOGINOV tried to backtrack a bit after this, but the conversation heated up again a few minutes later when Subject commented that he had a pretty good idea of what the Soviets were up to in Mexico. When LOGINOV asked what Subject meant, Subject related the story he once told me about having been in Veracruz a few years ago when a Soviet ship was actually or virtually put under arrest there. Subject told LOGINOV that "everyone knew the ship was loaded with Communist propaganda."

16. After about twenty minutes, according to Subject, politics were dropped and the conversation turned to more innocuous topics.
Subject said that LOGINOV seemed somewhat irritated with him, but on the whole kept his composure very well and treated Subject politely for the two hours or less Subject remained. As Subject was leaving, LOGINOV again said he'd come by the Institute to see Subject in the near future, but he never did. One day in late 1967 Subject saw LOGINOV at the gas station on the corner of Tacubaya and Juana Catlan, and LOGINOV greeted Subject by name. However, they did not converse with each other.

17. Subject said that GAZIYEV left most of the politically related part of the conversation to LOGINOV and never referred to the evening again. However, a few weeks after Subject returned to Mexico with his bride, GAZIYEV had Subject and his wife over to dinner (this would place the second dinner in about mid-May). This time GAZIYEV and his wife were the only others present, and the evening passed without any reference to politics. Subject stated that he still occasionally goes across the street for a cup of coffee with GAZIYEV between evening classes at the Institute, but that he has not been to GAZIYEV's apartment again and has never had GAZIYEV to his home.

18. Although Subject was very aware that LOGINOV's purpose in meeting him was to assess his exploitability, he did not seem to fully appreciate that GAZIYEV had both fingered him for LOGINOV and set up the situation for LOGINOV to meet him. I spelled this out for Subject and also informed him that LOGINOV was an exceptionally capable Soviet intelligence officer. I also explained that it was very possible GAZIYEV was using the Institute to spot other candidates for interviews with Soviet
intelligence officers, and questioned Subject about GAZIYEV's activities and contacts at the Institute. However, Subject said that as far as he could tell GAZIYEV pretty much stuck to himself at the Institute and did not have any particular friends there whom Subject knew about. Subject said he would keep his eyes open for the type of thing I was looking for, however, and would let me know if he came onto anything interesting. Subject also offered to "play up to" GAZIYEV and/or LOGINOV under my guidance if I wished, but I declined the offer with appropriate expressions of appreciation.

19. The question that remains unanswered after all this is, of course, why LOGINOV and GAZIYEV were talking about Subject over the phone on 24 April 1967. According to Subject, the dinner which LOGINOV attended took place in March 1967, while LOGINOV did not attend GAZIYEV's second dinner, which took place about mid-May. Since I am satisfied Subject told me the truth, it would appear that the "certain things" which LOGINOV told GAZIYEV on 24 April he wished to discuss with GAZIYEV concerned how to handle Subject in the light of the LOGINOV-Subject encounter in March. Whatever LOGINOV had in mind on 24 April, it would appear that it was finally decided that GAZIYEV and his wife should simply have Subject and his wife over to a peaceful dinner in order to at least partially erase the memory of the first dinner.

1. Headquarters has carefully considered the case of LIEML-1 from the standpoint of ramifications of the compromise of January 1963 and of his operational utilization by the Station. With regard to the compromise, Headquarters tends to believe that the damage done by that occurrence is somewhat greater than the Station estimates. It is obvious, however, that no one now or probably even in the future can arrive at a hard estimate of the degree to which LIEML-1 was blown. We can all agree and must assume that he has been compromised to some degree. The minimum degree of compromise would presumably be a listing of LIEML-1's name in local Soviet files, and presumably also in the Moscow headquarters control registry, as "possible A. I. S." While such a label is unfortunate, could affect future assignments, and will limit his sphere of activity in Mexico, there remains a wide area of operations in which he can be employed. The Mexican authorities are, to the best of our knowledge, unaware of LIEML-1's activities and sponsorship. Given the improved operational security patterns and overall professional handling which must accompany LIEML-1's future use in the light of the unfortunate flap, we feel that he can continue to be of service at his present post. In spite of the obvious special need for a more careful weighing of operational risk versus gain factors (even more important here than in the case of the usual presumably "clean" non-official agent), we feel that neither the flap nor his LIEML-1 status should inhibit the Station in the energetic use of his not inconsiderable talents. Headquarters can appreciate the necessarily slow pace of the developmental activity to which he has been assigned, as well as the required alterations of his targets - both of which factors have been largely beyond Station control.

(continued)
2. In a written report on his visit to Mexico in December 1967, the visiting LIGLIE case officer recapitulated the Station's Operational Plan for LIREALM-1 which included the following points:

   a. "Penetration, monitoring, analysis and study of the PRI are to be LIREALM-1's first objective"....

   b. (FRADEN) "urged LIREALM to spot and assess potential legal travellers to Cuba."

   c. "A strong tertiary target is the (HEPAIRY) Embassy."

   d. "Indonesians, Egyptians and Soviets have been discarded as targets."

When talking to members of the Branch, Lewis W. BEAUCHAMP confirmed the above and said that the Station was considering giving LIREALM-1 a going Cuban operation to handle. Has he yet been assigned any contacts which bear on the Cuban target? LIREALM-1 was quoted as saying that he feels he can handle a heavier operational load, and so we are hoping that you have or will soon be able to turn over to him one or more established operations from which he can see tangible return, thus broadening his experience and increasing his self-confidence. Since LIRELIC-1 has been terminated we assume Subject is exploring new areas against the LIGLIE/LIRELIC target and we would appreciate advice on this.

3. We recognize that very often one-time tasks, spotting, and research are performed by agents in the field without Headquarters' specific knowledge. Increased reporting on this kind of activity, which is valuable and necessary even though much of it may lead to dead ends, would give us a better understanding than we now have of the contribution which LIREALM-1 is making to the Station. Headquarters appreciates the operational reporting which the Station has been providing on LIREALM-1 and urges that it be continued on the same frequent basis.

1. During the April 1968 debriefing of AMSLOUCH/1 in the JMNAV area, AMSLOUCH/1 provided the following information on Soviet officials with whom he is, or has been, acquainted:

   a. Valentin LOGINOV (201-285412): Assigned to the Soviet Embassy in Havana several years ago. He pursued AMSLOUCH/3 (daughter of AMSLOUCH/1 and 2) when stationed in Havana, and later in Moscow. AMSLOUCH/1 described LOGINOV as a rough peasant type. AMSLOUCH/1 when in Mexico about a year ago was looking at the Mexico Diplomatic List and noticed that a LOGINOV was assigned to Mexico. AMSLOUCH/1 asked a girl working at a foreign consulate in Mexico (identity) if this was the same LOGINOV who had been stationed in Cuba. The girl replied in the affirmative, and stated the LOGINOV worked in the Soviet Consulate handling business dealings between her consulate and the Soviet Consulate. The girl described LOGINOV as "a very nice fellow."

   b. Colonel Fedor V. DREMEN: Military Attaché, Soviet Embassy, Havana. AMSLOUCH/1 reported that he has conversed with DREMEN on several occasions, the last one being when Cosmonaut GUGARIN was killed. AMSLOUCH/1 described DREMEN as alert, smart, speaks good Spanish, charming and very proud that he is the son of a Cosmonaut. DREMEN told AMSLOUCH/1 during one of their conversations that he had been a member

1. As reported in reference A, LIREALM-1 joined the PDRUMEN Section of this Station on 20 October 1967. It was decided that LIREALM-1 should drop further efforts against the Soviet, U.A.R., and Indonesian targets. The decision to discontinue efforts to develop contacts among Mexicans, also made at that time, was later amended and LIREALM-1 was entrusted with the handling of LIRELIC-1 along the lines of the recommendation made in reference B. Thus, by November 1967 LIREALM-1 had two main responsibilities: a) the French target, against which he already had devoted considerable time and effort, and b) the handling of LIRELIC-1.

Continued..................
2. LIREALM-1's efforts against the local French target have produced some notable results. First, through detailed analysis of personality and other data provided by LIREALM-1, the Station selected an access agent to the official French community who was later successfully contacted and was offered a contract (see reference C). The Station is already at work on what appears to be a good lead provided by the access agent spotted and developed by LIREALM-1. It should be emphasized that LIREALM-1 was in no way connected with the approach made to the French access agent. The second item on which LIREALM-1 has made progress has been the development of a Mexican employee of the French Embassy who is used as a general courier inside the Embassy. This development, for security reasons, has been slow. LIREALM-1's "line" has been that a person with "the ability" of the courier can and should expect a better paying job than the one he currently holds. The courier ended up taking that line as his own to "protect" him (as he probably would have some trouble if the Embassy discovered he was looking for another job). LIREALM-1 started meeting the Mexican courier outside the French Embassy. This gave LIREALM-1 the opportunity to talk to the prospect at some length without attracting the attention of the members of the Embassy. This is as far as the Station will allow LIREALM-1 to go in this case, which is currently being reviewed to decide who will continue the development of the Embassy courier and how. LIREALM-1 will not, in any case, have any connection with the person selected for this task. He will continue to maintain contact with the courier but will start to see him less often and will admit, in the end, that finding a job for him turned out to be more difficult than expected.

3. LIREALM-1 meanwhile is continuing to cultivate a number of selected members of the French Embassy and reports on their activities as a matter of routine. He has also maintained contact for some months with a wealthy Mexican businessman who is a good friend of DEVOSJOLY, the ex-French intelligence officer who provided the material for Leon URRIS' best seller Topaz. LIREALM-1, in fact, had established DEVOSJOLY's identity as coauthor of the book long before this became known publicly. He was shown by DEVOSJOLY's friend a safe at the latter's house in Mexico City full of documents probably belonging to DEVOSJOLY. This information was reported to Headquarters via "special" channels.

4. LIREALM-1's handling of LIRELIC-1 encompasses two targets. By far the more important one is LIQOLE. The goal here is hopefully to turn LIRELIC-1 into a penetration of LIQOLE using several good contacts he has in this organization as a stepping stone. Some steps have been taken in this direction. LIRELIC-1 has addressed personal requests for assistance to current key LIQOLE personalities. He has also submitted his curriculum vitae in the hope of landing a job in LIQOLE. This has so far failed to produce any concrete LIQOLE job offer. LIRELIC-1 realizes, of course, that he is of no value to LNHRAP unless he obtains a job giving him access to hard information on LIQOLE plans and activities. The promise of a regular salary, as a matter of fact, is completely dependent on LIRELIC-1's ability to penetrate LIQOLE. In an effort to maintain interim contact, however, and help LIRELIC-1 liquidate some personal debts, the Station, via LIREALM-1, made him a loan of 3,000 pesos. Further details on the LIQOLE aspect of the LIRELIC-1 operation will be covered in the forthcoming LIQOLE/LIRELIC progress report. In addition to
the above, the Station made an effort to explore the possibility of using a contact which LIRELIC-1 had with a PBRUMEN citizen in Acapulco to gain another window into LIRING. This PBRUMEN citizen owns a small hotel in the Mexican resort occasionally visited by LIRING personnel. Although LIRELIC-1 himself once delivered a package sent by his Acapulco friend and managed to have one or two meetings with representatives of the LIRING Commercial Section (to discuss the possibility of "trading" with PBRUMEN), it was decided in the end that LIRELIC-1's access to LIRING was too superficial to be of any great benefit. This decision was bolstered by the departure for PBRUMEN in April 1968 of LIRELIC-1's PBRUMEN friend, who left for what appears to be an extended visit to try to solve complicated personal problems. Thus, with the "shelving" of possible operational activities against LIRING, LOGLE became LIRELIC-1's only target in April of this year.

5. Unlike his contacts with the French, LIREALM-1's dealings with LIRELIC-1 have been completely clandestine. LIREALM-1 meets LIRELIC-1 under alias in out of the way restaurants and other public places. A drop constituted by a P.O. box rented by LIRELIC-1 under alias (to which both he and LIREALM-1 have keys) was set up for LIREALM-1 to receive operational messages.

6. References D and E reviewed an incident which occurred on 16 January and had a direct bearing on LIREALM-1's security. It is the opinion of this Station that the person who saw LIREALM-1 talk with Raymond A. FRADYER and Wallace B. ROWTON did not positively identify either of them. References stated that this person could not have been Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV, who claimed to have observed the meeting. Reference E pointed out that before joining the PBRUMEN Section in October 1967 LIREALM-1 had for some time interested himself in the activities of the Soviets at Station request. He first made contact with LOGINOV, for example, in April 1967 and met with him on the average of once a week until October 1967. Reference E also pointed out that LIREALM-1 only had four meetings with the Soviet from October 1967 to January 1968. The Station wants to emphasize once more that these were all at LOGINOV's initiative. LIREALM-1 had discontinued his efforts to maintain contact with the Soviet at Station's directive. As pointed out above, one of the main targets now handled by LIREALM-1 is the French. One of the best places to meet Frenchmen is the French Club. Station would be very reluctant to have LIREALM-1, a long-time member of that club, terminate his membership. Neither does the Station want him to be too obvious in giving the cold shoulder to the Soviet. The Station does not believe, knowing what it knows of LOGINOV, that serious and permanent damage has been done to LIREALM-1's security and believes that he can continue to provide valuable services to this Station.

1. The purpose of this dispatch is to provide Headquarters with additional information requested in reference B in the hope that it will assist the interested components in formulating a clearer picture of the reference A incident. The Station has consulted at length with Wallace B. ROWTON on the details that are provided below as well as, of course, with LIREALM-1 himself.

2. First, with regard to paragraph 2b of reference B, a fuller account of the FRADYER/ROWTON/LIREALM-1 meeting at Sanborns will, it is felt, shed more light on the impressions that Headquarters had formed of the probable identification of ROWTON as LIREALM-1's "boss." The following chronological account has been prepared by ROWTON from his reports and memory in consultation with LIREALM-1 (the numbers in the left margin refer to the time at which the events mentioned below took place):

1610 (January 16) LIREALM-1 met with ROWTON at the latter's home as planned. ROWTON informed LIREALM-1, much to the latter's disappointment, that unfortunately he had not as yet received the reimbursement for operational expenses ($2,357.35 AN) requested by LIREALM-1 on 10 January 1968, nor had he received from the

Station any contract or other document that LIREALM-1 might present to LIREALIC-1 as he had proposed. ROWTON explained to LIREALM-1 that he had hoped to be able to see Raymond A. FRADYER before his meeting with LIREALM-1, but that this had been impossible.

1620 ROWTON then telephoned FRADYER's office (in alias, open code, and double talk) and this time managed to reach FRADYER himself. FRADYER told ROWTON that he had the money and could pass it to ROWTON that same afternoon if he felt it necessary. ROWTON replied that he preferred to pick it up as soon as convenient for FRADYER and made a date for 1630 in the corridor outside the Koala Restaurant, about three or four minutes by foot from Sanborns. ROWTON then asked LIREALM-1 to wait for him in the downstairs bar of Sanborns, where he would join him with the money. LIREALM-1 left ROWTON's home alone, and ROWTON followed about five minutes later and proceeded (by taxi) to the Koala Restaurant. ROWTON distinctly recalls waiting for FRADYER for some 15 minutes.

1645 ROWTON spoke with FRADYER for about two minutes in the corridor after receiving the envelope containing the money. In reply to FRADYER's queries, ROWTON stated that LIREALM-1 was somewhat disappointed that he could not provide him with some sort of written contract for LIREALIC-1 and also because of the delay in reimbursing him for operational expenses (some of which had been disallowed). ROWTON then revealed to FRADYER that LIREALM-1 was waiting for him at the Sanborns bar so that he could pass him the money without further delay. FRADYER then regretted that he had been unable to see LIREALM-1 personally to explain the disallowance of some of the expenses. ROWTON suggested that FRADYER might take this opportunity to say a few words to LIREALM-1, especially since the latter knew that ROWTON and FRADYER were meeting at that moment somewhere nearby. FRADYER agreed but said that he preferred the gift section of Sanborns to the bar.

1655 ROWTON then proceeded alone to the downstairs bar of Sanborns and found LIREALM-1 waiting. ROWTON explained that he was late because of a last-minute arrangement with FRADYER for a brief meeting in the gift shop. LIREALM-1 then paid the bill and accompanied ROWTON up the stairs in the rear to the gift section, where they found FRADYER looking over the silver display in the shop.

1700 An apparently casual conversation then took place, with FRADYER and LIREALM-1 doing most of the talking and with ROWTON occasionally examining the silverware on display.
1720 When the conversation ended, ROWTON and LIAREAL-1 moved to the men's room, where LIAREAL-1 was able to check the amount of money for him and sign the enclosed receipt.

3. It will be noted from the above that the ROWTON/LIAREAL-1 meeting with FRADYER was not planned in advance (as pointed out in reference A), but was a hasty recommendation made to FRADYER by ROWTON and an equally hasty decision taken by FRADYER on the spot. ROWTON and LIAREAL-1 had met previously only in ROWTON's home, except on two occasions when ROWTON picked up LIAREAL-1 in his car in the Ciudad Deportes (near the main Mexico City bull ring) between regular meetings to pass him funds. ROWTON had never met with LIAREAL-1 at Sanborns or in any other public place prior to this meeting.

4. LIAREAL-1 also amplified his written report subsequently in one significant detail. In reference to the remark of LOGINOV to the effect that he had seen him with his boss at Sanborns two Wednesdays previously when "you had a drink in the bar and then talked to your boss," LIAREAL-1 told ROWTON on reflection that LOGINOV had also stated that "you were having a drink at the bar and a man came up to you and brought you to your boss." This indicates that FRADYER was meant as the person described as LIAREAL-1's boss.

5. With regard to where and how often ROWTON and LIAREAL-1 have had operational meetings in the past, as requested in paragraph 3 of reference B, Station files show that between 20 October 1967 and 16 January 1968 ROWTON met with LIAREAL-1 at his home ten times. Besides these meetings with LIAREAL-1 at his home, ROWTON recalls only two other meetings with LIAREAL-1, when he picked up LIAREAL-1 in his car for brief meetings to pass him funds. Since the LOGINOV/LIAREAL-1 episode, ROWTON has met with LIAREAL-1 at obscure bars to avoid possible positive identification of ROWTON in the event LIAREAL-1 was under surveillance. LIAREAL-1 has passed his reports to ROWTON between their weekly meetings via a P.O. letter drop taken out previously by LIAREAL-1 under alias. The only telephone contact that has existed between them has been brief calls to ROWTON's home by LIAREAL-1 alerting ROWTON, in double talk, that he has left an envelope at the drop.

6. With regard to the frequency of LIAREAL-1's meetings with LOGINOV, mentioned in paragraph 4 of reference B, LIAREAL-1's contact reports list only four meetings during the same period, all of which occurred at the French Club, and one of which, on 2 November 1967, was a casual encounter at which very few words were exchanged. It is significant to note, however, that at the 12 November 1967 meeting, while LIAREAL-1 and LOGINOV were chatting in the showers after the match, the latter "joked that (LIAREAL-1) should bring some of his friends from the Embassy" to join them in playing tennis. LOGINOV added, also apparently with a slight grin, "all of them are WOFIRM." FRADYER, to whom this remark was promptly reported, did not consider it to have any special meaning since he knew from personal and direct experience that LOGINOV is a born provocateur who cannot resist needling people (Mexicans and foreigners) with whom he comes into contact. WOFIRM often comes up in LOGINOV conversations, not only with FRADYER, but with persons of other nationalities. It was decided, however, to again warn LIAREAL-1 at his next meeting with ROWTON on 16 November, when LIAREAL-1 submitted his report, not to involve himself with LOGINOV. LIAREAL-1 assured ROWTON that
his continuing contacts with LOGINOV were at the latter's initiative and that LIREALM-1 would not make any attempt to follow up or show any unusual interest. LIREALM-1 did not report seeing LOGINOV again until 13 January 1968 (two months later), this time, as usual, on the tennis court.

7. Headquarters will recall that the LIREALM-1 relationship with the Soviets dates back many months prior to the date RONTON took over his handling. The file reveals that LIREALM-1 first met LOGINOV on 22 April 1967, and that at that time LOGINOV proposed to LIREALM-1 that they meet regularly, every Wednesday, for tennis and occasionally take in a movie with their wives. This leaves no doubt that the pace was set by LOGINOV himself since he undoubtedly saw in LIREALM-1 a potential target. The situation was further complicated by the character and modus operandi of LOGINOV, as well as the limitations of LIREALM-1's cover situation at the time.

8. A principal dilemma facing the Case Officer with regard to LIREALM-1's exposure to the Soviets has been his regular attendance at the French Club. Since the French target has been one of the main ones left to LIREALM-1 after the elimination of the Soviet, Indonesian, and UAR operations, it was considered necessary for LIREALM-1 to continue his normal contacts with the French. He could have dropped his membership in the club to avoid further involvement with the Soviets, but this would have broken a long-established pattern and deprived him of his principal access at that time. It was therefore ruled out as counterproductive.

9. Subsequent developments appear to confirm the Station's view that LOGINOV based his provocative remark on a hunch or, at most, on a strong suspicion concerning LIREALM-1. As mentioned in paragraph 4 of reference B, such prolonged social contact between an American and a Soviet "is almost inevitably construed on both sides to have intelligence connotations." The Station wishes to emphasize, however, that whatever suspicions were aroused in the mind of LOGINOV concerning LIREALM-1 were already generated months before he joined the PBRUMEN Section in late October 1967.

10. In conclusion, the Station feels that nothing has been noted in the subsequent operational activity of FRADYER or ROWTON to indicate that either of them has been identified as an intelligence operative. ROWTON has had no contact of any kind with Soviets in this area, nor has he detected any surveillance, either physical or technical, of his person or home. Both he and FRADYER, however, will continue to maintain maximum security to avoid any further exposure to such persons as LOGINOV. LIREALM-1, on his part, has been able to improve his cover by opening an office and making his overt activity as plausibly commercial as possible.

REFERENCE: KMA-34363, 3 April 1963

1. Reference caused deep concern in Headquarters -- concern which we knew you share. To hold any agent meetings in that particular cafeteria is unorthodox enough, but to meet there with someone in the category of LINEALM/1, whose cover is of special importance, suggests an unwarranted or disdain of basic operational security which merits reprimand.

2. We appreciate your candid account of the LINEALM/1-LOGINOV episode, and have several comments to make:

   a. Why LOGINOV would have said, "I saw you talking with your boss the other day" we do not know, but the fact that he made such a banal remark with a slight grin certainly implies that he did not have ordinary commercial business in mind.

   b. In the context of the dispatch it sounds rather as though LOGINOV was referring to a meeting between LINEALM/1 and one other man, not two, in which case it was probably ROTHEN and not FRADYER when he identified as the boss. (To assume that ROTHEN and LINEALM/1 had been together in the cafeteria before the brush meeting with FRADYER took place, but this may be incorrect.)

3. In order to shed some additional light on the matter, we would like to know even more about this particular Wednesday meeting and the pattern of meetings which have preceded and followed it. Were ROTHEN and LINEALM/1 meeting together in the bar or cafeteria? What was the appearance of the later three-way, fifteen-minute conversation upstairs in the silver shop (i.e., casual, serious, intense, sotto-voce, conspiratorial? Was any pretense made of "shopping"?) Our feeling is that ROTHEN is as much compromised as

LIREALM/1, but in KOTON's case the loss is less because of accepted risks in his style of operating and since we have always assumed that his cover was thin, what is important to know in this case is where and how often KOTON and LIREALM/1 have had operational meetings in the past. Considering this we had assumed the KOTON-LIREALM/1 meetings were truly clandestine.

4. Another point to be resolved is the frequency of LIREALM/1's meetings with LOGINOV -- from the reference we infer that the tennis games were a frequent occurrence, although LIREALM/1 had been told almost a year ago to break contact. Even if these meetings could not have been avoided as the Station claims, why were they not reported? The issue takes on even added significance as we understand the Station and Headquarters had been in agreement for some time that LIREALM/1 was to avoid any continuing contact with Soviets. Hindsight in this case certainly proves the correctness of the earlier judgment. (Experience shows that prolonged social contact between an American and a Soviet is almost inevitably construed on both sides, and with reason, to have an intelligence connotation.)

5. The fact that LOGINOV did not mention the Sanborn's meeting to FRADIER can hardly be read to mean that LIREALM/1 is clean in LOGINOV's eyes, although FRADIER would naturally have been anxious to see what, if anything, would happen when he next saw LOGINOV face to face. It is true that we have no evidence that LIREALM/1 has been "definitely branded as a KOTON operator" but if he is even highly suspect there is still cause for deep concern.

6. Various levels and components at Headquarters are trying to evaluate and debate this episode, and we would like to have your recommendations as an aid to our decision. From the few facts that we have we believe we must proceed under the assumption that LIREALM/1 is suspect or possibly compromised in the eyes of the Soviets. Accepting this, do you consider LIREALM/1 has further utility in Mexico? If so, we would like your views as to his proposed targets and handling procedures. After receiving further details as requested in paragraph 3 and your recommendations, Headquarters will advise you its decision.

7. We recognize the Station is as disturbed about this breach of basic operational judgment as Headquarters and do not wish to belabor the point. We trust however that this experience will be a lesson well learned and that in the future the Station's clandestine operational procedures will be truly clandestine and professional in style for all of the Station activities, not just LIREALM/1.

1. Since joining the staff of the PBRUMEN Section of this Station in October 1967, LIREALM-1 has been handled by Wallace B. ROWTON under the over-all supervision of the undersigned. His three main activities have been 1) to handle LIRELIC-1, an asset who we hope will turn into a penetration of the Mexican PRI, 2) to continue to develop rapport with and report on the local official French community, and 3) to determine the degree to which LIRELIC-1 can develop access to LIRING and its personnel. LIREALM-1 has continued to see a number of contacts he had developed before joining the PBRUMEN Section, either at Station directive or by social encounter. One of these contacts has long been Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV, Second Secretary of the Soviet Embassy and known KGB officer whom LIREALM-1 first ran into while playing tennis at the French Club, where both LIREALM-1 and LOGINOV are members. Station several times asked LIREALM-1 to break contact with LOGINOV, but this has not been possible since LIREALM-1's continued membership at the French Club is desired for operational reasons and LOGINOV, who probably joined the club for similar reasons, has continued to be one of its active members.

Continued..................
2. In January 1968 LIREALM-1 presented an accounting for reimbursement by the Station to which the Station took exception. Some of the entertainment of marginal assets involved totals which the Station found to be excessive. The result of this was that after some deliberation LIREALM-1 had to pay for part of these expenses out of his pocket. On 17 January 1968 ROWTON called the undersigned to ask about reimbursement of those expenses allowed by the Station. A brush contact was arranged for this purpose in the passageway leading to the Koala Restaurant, as ROWTON indicated that LIREALM-1 needed the money as soon as possible. At the agreed time the undersigned passed an envelope to ROWTON, who informed the undersigned that LIREALM-1 was waiting in the downstairs cafeteria of the Sanborns building. The undersigned, who had not seen LIREALM-1 at Christmas time and genuinely regretted the fact that the latter had to pay for operational expenses out of his pocket, agreed to see LIREALM-1 for a few minutes. When the undersigned refused to go to the downstairs Sanborns cafeteria, ROWTON suggested that he fetch LIREALM-1 and bring him to the silver shop upstairs in the same building. A 15-minute meeting (longer than expected) ensued between ROWTON, LIREALM-1, and the undersigned in a corner of the Sanborns silver shop. The meeting started a few minutes before 1700 hours.

3. On 28 January LIREALM-1 saw LOGINOV at the French Club. The following is a verbatim extract of the report written by LIREALM-1 on this meeting:

I had joined Val and my wife on her side of the court for small talk with Val. He apologized for interrupting our game and suggested we go back to playing and he would watch us. We had made a date for tennis Wednesday. He would call me if his leg still bothered him or for any other reason he was unable to play. Now he said he wanted to study my game so that he could beat me Wednesday. Val walked with me as far as the net where he stopped me and the following conversation took place.

"I saw you talking with your boss the other day," Val said with a slight grin.

"My boss?" I asked. I suspected nothing and seriously considered the question. I began to search back in my mind if my cover boss had ever met Val. I recalled that I had once pointed Val out to him. The conversation proceeded too rapidly for me to answer my own question. The fact is that Val has never met my cover boss.

"Yes. At Sanborns two Wednesdays ago. You had a drink in the bar and then talked to your boss."

"Two Wednesdays ago... At Sanborns? No. You're mistaken. My boss left about six weeks ago—almost two months ago. No. I don't think I was at Sanborns." I answered Val honestly confused. I began to wonder who I had been with. I've often met people in the various Sanborns. I was trying to think who Val was confusing with my boss.

"Yes. Your boss. You and your boss were talking together at the Sanborns next to your embassy."

"No Val. My boss left at least two months ago. I can't recall the particular meeting at Sanborns that you are referring to, but I'll drink with anyone, anywhere, anytime." Val and I laughed. Until this moment I was answering him honestly and sincerely and might have been very convincing.
As it began to dawn on me what Val was driving at I turned my back and started for the baseline. It was then that I felt weak and my face would have betrayed me if I had still been facing Val. By the time I reached the baseline I was composed. We spoke no further except to comment on good shots by me or my wife during the next five or ten minutes that he stood watching us.

4. The undersigned reported the above to his superiors as soon as he received LIREALM-1's report. A check of the LIEUTENANT log for 17 January showed that LOGINOV had left the Soviet Embassy at 1404 and had returned at 1708 hours. This made his presence at Sanborns at the time of the meeting between LIREALM-1, ROWTON, and the undersigned impossible, as it would have given him about 10 minutes to leave the site of the meeting, get into his car, and drive to the Soviet Embassy, an impossible feat even in light traffic. It is clear then that LOGINOV was not present at the time of the meeting but was told that LIREALM-1 met with two Americans. It was and still is the undersigned's conviction that whoever saw LIREALM-1 was unable to positively identify ROWTON or the undersigned. The undersigned reasons that had LOGINOV known that he, the undersigned, had talked to LIREALM-1, LOGINOV would have mentioned his name after failing to obtain any reaction from LIREALM-1 from mentioning the latter's "boss." The undersigned believes that LOGINOV, who is not completely stupid, would have either said nothing or would have gone all the way in his statements to LIREALM-1 had he known the undersigned's name. By the same token it appears that LOGINOV failed to identify ROWTON. The undersigned had only met with one other Soviet besides LOGINOV at the time of the meeting, and that only once; and that Soviet was no longer in Mexico City when the meeting with LIREALM-1 took place. ROWTON has never had any contact, social or otherwise, with any of the Soviets.

5. The undersigned is the first to recognize that meeting with LIREALM-1 at the Sanborns silver shop was a thoroughly unwise move. He wishes to emphasize that this was the only meeting at the time that he had held with LIREALM-1 outside of a safehouse. All meetings between the undersigned and LIREALM-1 have since been held under the most secure conditions on the edge of the Federal District and, in one case, beyond. While this does not make this decision any wiser, he also wants to emphasize the fact that it was made on the spur of the moment, to quote the old cliche, because the undersigned "felt sorry" for LIREALM-1 because of the latter's financial difficulties with the Station over his last accounting. The undersigned unwisely put LIREALM-1's morale for a brief moment over basic security considerations. He is not in the habit of doing this as a matter of course. The day before his next scheduled tennis meeting with LIREALM-1 the following Wednesday, LOGINOV called LIREALM-1 and asked to be excused as his leg had worsened. The week after that LOGINOV showed up for his regular tennis game with LIREALM-1 but made no mention of his previous conversation with him two weeks before. The undersigned waited to complete a review of this case until he met LOGINOV face to face at one of the Consular Association functions. Because of the visits of Soviet athletes and artists which kept LOGINOV busy, however, this meeting did not materialize until 28 March. Although the undersigned and LOGINOV talked to each other off and on for more than two hours on this occasion during a visit to the local Home Fair, LOGINOV never mentioned anything about the Sanborns meeting. He has never brought LIREALM-1's name to the attention of the undersigned.
6. During a recent visit to the Station, a representative of the LPGLOBE staff at Headquarters was given the complete details of the above incident by LINEALM-1. He also reviewed the same incident with the undersigned and the Deputy Chief of Station. The LPGLOBE representative mentioned on this occasion that in his opinion the above incident should have been reported by cable. The undersigned stated then and wants to repeat now that this was not done because 1) it would have served no purpose to alert Headquarters without giving all the facts, which were not known at the time, and 2) the Station wanted to review all elements of this case to report the incident objectively, fairly, and completely. The undersigned told the LPGLOBE representative that he would consider documentation of this case complete after having the opportunity of meeting LOGINOV face to face again. As pointed out above, this did not occur until 28 March. Nothing in the operations conducted by the undersigned, LINEALM-1, or ROWTON has indicated that the Soviets positively identified either the undersigned or ROWTON so as to definitely brand LINEALM-1 as a NOFIRM operator.

1. On 8 March 1968 after 201-827966 failed to show for two scheduled meetings (on the previous evening he had agreed to submit to a debriefing), the area of his hotel was checked by the undersigned. On a main street near the hotel the undersigned almost bumped into Valentin S. LOGNOV (201-138129). A few minutes later Ivan K. BARANOV (201-277838) was observed photographing the area (including the undersigned) with an 8mm movie camera. LOGNOV was standing near BARANOV observing the undersigned. LILYRIG reports that LOGNOV and BARANOV were absent together from the Soviet Embassy during the period in question.

2. Another meet with 201-827966 was arranged by telephone for 12:30 on 9 March. From 12:28 to 12:48 the entrance to the hotel where the meeting took place was staked out by BARANOV and Vladimir A. DOLGOV (201-763035). BARANOV was carrying a 35mm camera with a larger telephoto lens. Visual identification of DOLGOV was tentative. However in view of LILYRIG reports that DOLGOV was absent from the Soviet Embassy for the period in question and that all other possible candidates were accounted for, the identification has been confirmed. In addition we have photos of DOLGOV wearing sunglasses identical to the ones he wore during the counter-surveillance.

3. Although we have had previous indications that DOLGOV is probably a KGB officer the Station feels that his participation in this counter-surveillance is sufficient to list him as known KGB.

4. We can also add photographer to BARANOV's technical duties.

      Description: Plump, has reddish hair. (15) Photographs are attached.
      Languages: LOGINOVA has been studying Spanish with Carmen ROURE Canosa, a local employee of the Soviets, since at least June 1966 through May 1967 (1), but her Spanish is still said to be very limited. (6, 25) She is said to speak a little English (25), and claimed she had studied English in Moscow. (1) She is also said to speak some French. (25)
      Miscellaneous: LOGINOVA has said that she has known her husband since age six as neighbors in Moscow. (6) She claims to be a chemical engineer.

(4) Since February 1966 she had been reported as chairman of the Zhenkem (Soviet Women's Organization), and as such has had to persuade the Soviet women to do various administrative chores, as well as being involved with running the dacha that the Soviets have had in Cuernavaca in the summers of 1966 and 1967. (1)
7. RELATIVES: Continued

d. Family: In June 1967 LOGINOVA asked the wife of Commercial Counselor Viktor Nikhaylovich IVANOY (201-245651) to call her mother when she got to Moscow, saying that her family lived at the Botanical Gardens. (1)

e. Children:

1) Daughter: Irina, born ca. 1952. (28)

In June 1967 Subject said he had a fifteen-year-old daughter, who was living with LOGINOVA's mother (in Moscow). (6) In April 1967 LOGINOVA said her daughter was in an English school in Moscow. (25) Irina was reportedly with her parents in Havana, 1960-63 (28); however, she did not travel with them from Havana to Moscow on 11 May 1962 (4) and therefore may have been in Havana for only a part of Subject's tour. She has not been in Mexico.

2) Son: Dmitriy. (4)

DOB: 1959 (28), birthday probably 6 August. (1)

Dmitriy was with his parents in Havana, 1960-63 (28), and arrived in Mexico City with his mother on 10 October 1965. (4) Subject has expressed interest in having his son take English lessons when the family returns from home leave in August 1967. (21)

8. LANGUAGES:

a. Spanish:

Subject speaks fluent Spanish with very little accent. (11, 24)

b. English:

Since 1966 Subject has been reported taking English lessons, apparently at the Instituto Interpretes Traductores in Mexico City. (1) In April 1967 he said that he had been paying a girl (American) for lessons in English, but that she did not have enough background in grammar. (25). (COMMENT: Subject was probably more interested in meeting American girls than in studying English in this case.) Subject's English is believed to be fair at present.
9. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS:

One source described Subject as tall, blond and blue-eyed. (11) Another source said that he was six feet one and had short, reddish-blond hair. (24) Photographs are attached.
10. PERSONALITY, CHARACTER, HABITS:

a. All sources agree in describing Subject as smooth and completely self-controlled. He is an aggressive conversationalist. One source described him as vulgar, crude, ill-mannered, short-tempered and a tyrant, who thinks he is a big shot. (6)

b. Subject seems to have made a play for every girl he has met. In at least one instance he has claimed to be unmarried when inviting a girl out. (27) When his wife was staying in the dacha in Cuernavaca he reportedly made dates with other women. (8) On 13 September 1966 he was seen in a cafe with a Mexican-looking woman. (18)

c. Subject is interested in sports and is good at them. In September 1966 it was reported that he did not play tennis, (15) and by April 1967 he was said to be a good tennis player, claimed that he had been playing for less than a year and never played more than once a week. (25) He is said to have the build of a trained athlete, the brutish look of a boxer or wrestler, and the grace of a natural athlete. (25) He has said that he boxed when he was younger, and that he plays basketball and volleyball (25), also that his favorite sports are skiing and speed skating. (21) He also plays chess but is not an addict. (25) He has belonged to the French Club in Mexico City since ca. November 1965 (1) and has been seen there frequently on weekends, sometimes with his wife and child. (15) One Sunday (20 March 1966) Subject and Yevgeniy Nikolayevich GORLITSYN were seen playing badminton with their wives at the French Club. (15)

d. One source reported that Subject smoked "Fiesta" cigarettes (8), and another source reported in April 1967 that Subject did not smoke. (25) One source reported that Subject downs several beers after playing tennis (25), but another source reported that on a social occasion Subject did not even finish one Scotch and water. (19) On 8 February 1966 Subject and Vladislav Sergeyevich KORUSHKIN reportedly drove into the Soviet Embassy at 0300 hours roaring drunk (8), which may or may not be accurate reporting.

e. Subject has apparently been taking English lessons since early 1966 at the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores, which is located at Tiber 113 very near the U.S. Embassy. He seems to have made friends with a number of people through these classes. (1) (Cf. under Contacts)

f. In February 1966 it was reported that Subject's wife had bought a tape recorder. (1) In June 1967 Subject himself ordered a Grundig tape recorder. (1)

g. Subject was reported having an operation on 1 February 1966 (17); no further details are available.

11. CURRICULUM VITAE:

Subject claims that he has served in the Red Army. (8)

(Subject's name was reportedly listed in February 1960 as about to be assigned to Buenos Aires as Soviet Military Attaché; it would appear that either this was another person with the same name, or that Subject was being considered for assignment there as D diplomatic attaché.)

14 September 1960: Subject and his family arrived in Havana, where Subject was assigned as Attaché at the Soviet Embassy. (3, 28)

December 1961: Subject toured Latin America as escort and Interpreter for the Dynamo soccer team. (28)
11. CURRICULUM VITAE: Continued.

11 May 1962: Subject, his wife and son transited Mexico City enroute from Havana to Montevideo (4), presumably on their way to Moscow on home leave.

September 1963: Subject and his family left Havana PCS. (28)

1 August 1965: Subject arrived PCS in Mexico as Third Secretary assigned to the Soviet Embassy. (4) Subject replaced Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO as Vice Consul. (1)

10 October 1965: Subject's wife and son arrived in Mexico. (4)

August 1966: Subject was apparently promoted to Consul General after Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV left Mexico on 4 August 1966 for home leave. In September 1966 Subject was telling everyone in town that he is now the Consul. (1, 6, etc.)

16 July 1967: Subject, accompanied by his wife and son, left Mexico for Moscow via Paris. (4) Also travelling with them on LOGINOV's passport was Tatiana, the daughter of Boris Aleksandrovich MALAKHOVICH. (4) Subject has told several people that this is home leave and that he will be returning to Mexico (1, 6, 21, 22).

12. INTELLIGENCE AFFILIATION: Known KGB, based on his having taken over an agent previously handled by known KGB officers Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO (201-305870) and Aleksandr Vladimirovich FRIKHODKO (201-202379), as well as his other intelligence activities given below.

13. INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES:

(Cf. also information under Contacts, below. Subject has undoubtedly been developing contacts, particularly with American girls, with a view toward intelligence possibilities.)

a. In December 1961 while travelling with the Dynamo soccer team, Subject met a Bolivian security service official in La Paz, Bolivia and reportedly tried to persuade him to study in Cuba. The source, however, is believed to be a fabricator. (28)

b. After Subject saw the soccer team off, he continued to Panama, where he met with a Mexican citizen, Edmundo Fausto ZORRILLA Martinez (P-2818) on 16 December 1961. On 17 December 1961 Subject and ZORRILLA travelled to Mexico City on the same plane. Subject had ca. (US) $2000 with him in Panama. (29)

c. On 14 February 1966 KGB officer Aleksandr Vladimirovich FRIKHODKO (201-202379) turned an agent over to Subject. (The agent had previously been handled by Subject's predecessor, Oleg Maksimovich NECHIPORENKO.) On 14 April 1966 the agent attempted to break his intelligence relationship with the Soviets, although he has remained in business and social contact with them. Subject, occasionally joined by FRIKHODKO, has continued to give intelligence requirements to the agent, who has questioned him particularly about his access to the U.S. Embassy and tried to persuade him to continue cooperating with the KGB. On 24 June 1966 Subject asked the agent for information on Eduard WEBELMAN and his son Mauricio. On 13 December 1966 Subject asked the agent to try to find out who the KOFIRE chief in Mexico was. (6) (COMMENT: Mauricio WEBELMAN was subsequently reported to be a friend of suspect KGB officer Yevgeniy Nikolayevich GORLITSYN's, 201-773422).
13. INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES: Continued

d. On 20 January 1966 Cristobal TORRES Ponce, chauffeur employed by the U.S. Embassy in Mexico, was sent to the Soviet Embassy to pick up the passport of the wife of a U.S. Embassy official who was planning a trip to the USSR. Subject talked to TORRES, asking him if he would like to visit the USSR or receive Soviet magazines, if he knew anyone who would be willing to give him English lessons, and finally made a dinner date with TORRES for 24 January 1966. When TORRES did not keep the date, Subject called him on 8 and 9 February 1966 in an attempt to keep the contact alive. (12, 14)

e. Subject dealt with the Federal District police several times in July 1966 in regard to a radio that had been stolen from his car. On 20 July 1966 the police an (LHU) who had been handling the radio case reported to his superior, General Luis CUETO Ramirez, that Subject had offered him 5,000 pesos (4,000 dollars) a month if he would work for him. After consulting with the Minister of Interior, CUETO told the policeman to accept Subject's offer, which he reportedly did on 21 July 1966. Subject's first assignment to the policeman was to locate Venezuelan citizens Nicolas Juan BOSTROEM and wife. (16) (COMMENT: Nothing further has been learned about this case. BOSTROEM is a native Russian employed by Stephens-Adamson de Mexico, his wife teaches Russian at the Ibero-American University.)

f. Subject has occasionally been reported visiting the small general store located across the street from the Soviet Embassy. On 5 November 1966 Subject reportedly questioned the store owner about the occupants of one apartment building in the same block as the store, and on 6 December 1966 he asked general questions about the new apartment building at the end of the block. (15) (COMMENT: Both of these buildings contain base houses for the fixed surveillance of the Soviet Embassy.)

14. NON-INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITY:

a. In Mexico, Subject has consistently been reported performing consular duties. He issues visas and sees visitors to the Soviet Embassy in one of the reception rooms. (21) He makes travel reservations for PCS and visiting Soviets. He is responsible when either PCS or visiting Soviets become ill and have to be sent to a hospital. He has often attended to the needs of Soviet ships in Mexican ports. He has done considerable house-hunting for the Soviets, such as looking for a new school building and for houses in Cuernavaca that would be suitable as a dacha. Subject had to sign the dacha contract in both 1966 and 1967. Subject also regularly attends the functions of the Consular Corps Association, and on 16 February 1967 he had the Association to the Soviet Embassy for a Russian evening. (1) In September 1966 Subject was reported as having become the Consul General (6, 8, 1, 11), having replaced Pavel Antonovich VATSOV, who left Mexico for home leave on 4 August 1966. On 21 February 1967 Subject tried to get Panamanian visas for himself and Soveksportfilm representative Aleksandr Aleksandrovich NIKITIN (known KGB) to attend a Consular Congress to be held in Panama 11-15 April 1967. (1) The visas were refused.

b. On 26 January 1966 Subject attended a lecture given by a Mexican who was an exchange professor at a U.S. university. The lecture was sponsored by the PRI. Soviet Cultural Attaché Svyatoslav Fedorovich KUZNETSOV also attended the lecture and sat on the platform, whereas Subject sat at the back of the room. (13)

c. Subject is reported to have taken the following trips to Mexico:

26-28 October 1965: To Mazatlan to attend to Soviet ship. (1)

2-4 November 1965: To Mazatlan with Yevgeny Nikolayevich GORELITSYK to attend to Soviet ship. (1)

25-28 April 1966: Possibly to Guadalajara with Soviet Inturist visitors attending a travel conference there. (1)

4-9 May 1966: To Veracruz to attend to the matter of a missing Soviet sailor. (1)

27-30 May 1966: To Veracruz to attend to Soviet ship. (1)

15. CONTACTS:

a. Soviet:

1) Subject has been seen coming and going at the Soviet Embassy most frequently with Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV (201-120123, known KGB), whom Subject replaced as Consul. Since Subject's departure for home leave on 16 July 1967, YATSKOV has been regularly using Subject's car. Subject has also been observed leaving the Soviet Embassy fairly often with Ivan Konstantinovich BARANOV (201-277838, known KGB sweeper) and Boris Aleksandrovich MALAKHOVICH (201-767974, suspect KGB technician). Subject has also borrowed the cars of YATSKOV and known KGB chauffeur Vasily Stepanovich MIROSHNIKOV (201-273046). (7)

2) In May 1966 Subject reportedly gave the wife of Aleksandr Aleksandrovich NIKITIN (201-784917, known KGB) a hard time when she wanted to send her son to the USSR with another Soviet wife. NIKITIN then complained to Aleksandr Vladimirovich PRIKHODKO (201-202379, known KGB), who reportedly ordered Subject to get a ticket for the NIKITIN child. (1) Cf. also above, where PRIKHODKO seems to be the senior case officer for an agent currently being handled by Subject.

3) In May 1967 LOGINOVA mentioned that she had known Boris Aleksandrovich CHMYKOV (201-268115, known GRU) for years. (1) (COMMENT: CHMYKOV was stationed in Havana 1960-62, at the same time that Subject was there.) Cf. below for report of Subject's having taken CHMYKOV with him to Cuernavaca to meet ZAREBSKI.

Subject has also been reported in contact with the following Soviets not stationed in Mexico:

4) Vitaly Konstantinovich BOYAROV (201-355606, known KGB), visited Mexico 27 May - 9 June 1966. On 1 June 1966 Subject and P.A. YATSKOV were absent from the Soviet Embassy for four hours with BOYAROV. (7)

5) Vasily Vasilyevich GRIGORYEV, member of petroleum delegation that visited Mexico 31 March-14 April 1967. While GRIGORYEV was in Mexico he was reported in contact with Subject several times, once making plans to go to the movies together, also to ask Subject whether he should attend a French reception and to report the illness of one of the other Soviet delegates. (1)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

a. Soviet:

6) Boris Semenovich IVANOV (201-078078, known KGB), visited Mexico 8-22 February 1967. Subject made reservations for IVANOV in Mexico City and probably saw him off at the airport. (1)

7) Yury Vladimirovich LEBEDEV (201-213261), Minister Counselor at the Soviet Embassy in Havana. On 7 February 1966 Subject was reported sending something to LEBEDEV with a Soviet professor who was travelling back to Moscow via Havana. (1)

b. Non-Soviet:

1) Alonso AGUILAR Monteverede (P-2152, 201-334259), active Marxist intellectual.

On 28 June 1967 AGUILAR reminded Subject that they and their wives were invited for Saturday evening to the home of Alberto PENICHE. (1) (Alberto PENICHE Blanco, P-12294, manager of centrist newspaper El Heraldo de Mexico and reported as minor contributor to the FCM in 1964.)

2) (Mrs.) Gloria ALFARO, no other traces.

On 5 February 1966 Mrs. fnu ALFARO (Possibly Gloria) wanted to talk to Subject to congratulate him on a Soviet moon probe. (1). On 22 June 1966 Gloria ALFARO reminded Subject that they had met at the house of Mrs. SOTO (possibly Gracilala, q.v.) on Christmas Eve 1965 and invited Subject to a party. Subject was unable to go but said he would call Gloria for coffee. Gloria gave her telephone as 35-71-30 (listed in 1964 to Yolanda ALFARO Vda de CACERES Buitrago, Chiapas 130-A, current telephone 25-10-24). (1) Also on 22 June 1966 Gloria ALFARO told Subject she would like to talk with some of the Soviets, and Subject suggested getting together on Friday "after English class." (17) (COMMENT: ALFARO may have been studying English with Subject at the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores.) On 3 August 1966 Gloria and Subject tried to agree on a date to get together, and she said she would like for him to meet a friend (female) of hers who was visiting Mexico from Central America. (1)

3) Ofelia ALFARO Lopez (P-11339), professor of economics at UNAM, good friend of the wife of Antonio SARMIENTO (q.v.), social contact with several Soviets.

On 30 August 1965 ALFARO invited Sergey Sergeyevich KONSTANTINOV to her house and included Subject and Leonid Vasilyevich KNIKIFOROV. (1)

4) (Dr.) Juan Luis ALVAREZ Gayou, teacher at UNAM and Deputy Director of Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores,

Subject presumably met ALVAREZ at the Instituto, where Subject is believed to have studied English. The first reported contact was on 11 April 1966, when they spoke to each other using the familiar form of address about having missed each other in Cuernavaca. Subject was invited to ALVAREZ' birthday party. Subject said he would see ALVAREZ the following day when he was going to have class with a new teacher. On 13 June 1966 Professor fnu ALVAREZ, Juan Luis' father, asked Subject if he would bring the projector to the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores, and Subject said he would. On 12 July 1966 ALVAREZ, who had been out of town, asked Subject if he wanted to continue taking lessons, and Subject said yes, he would go there the following day. On 19 November 1966 ALVAREZ left a message for Subject to call him at 35-65-96 (listed to Natalia CAMERO de la Fuente, Garbure 251. On 22
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

5) (Inr.) Manuel ANAYA S., employee of Mexican Ministry of Hydraulic Resources, visited the USSR in summer 1965.

On 19 July 1966 ANAYA thanked Subject for his visa and said he would get together with Subject when he got back in order to discuss his trip. (17)

6) Emilia ARCSAMENA Vallarina (F-10933, 201-771073), Panamanian Consul General in Mexico, in contact with several Soviets.

On 15 November 1965 Aleksandr Vladimirovich FRINKHODKO said he wanted to introduce Subject to ARCSAMENA, because Subject had some questions to ask her. Presumably related is a report that the Panamanian Counselor Jose B. CALVO told Subject on 19 November 1965 that he had no answer for Subject yet. (1)

7) Miriam AVILA Katz (F-581, 201-814144), employee of Mundus Tours travel agency, about to leave Mexico to marry an American and live in New York.

Subject was first reported in contact with AVILA in April 1966 in connection with travel bookings Subject made. (1) On 2 June 1966 Subject flirted with her, and said he would invite her to a volleyball game. (1) During the rest of 1966 Subject invited her out a few times, told her he was married but that his wife was not in Mexico, asked her to introduce him to some of her friends and especially wanted to know if she knew anyone in the U.S. Embassy. In April 1967 Subject reluctantly agreed to issue a visa to Dr. KUTTLER (q.v.), whose travel AVILA was arranging, and asked as a return favor that she introduce him to some of her friends. (6) In June 1967 Subject reportedly stopped AVILA coming out of work to ask her about the Israeli War. (6)

8) Celia BAYARDI Torres, no traces.

On 7 February 1966 an unidentified man visited Subject at the Soviet Embassy. This man came to the Embassy in a car driven by a woman, who remained in the car, with license plates registered to Celia BAYARDI Torres, Arquitecto 46, Colonia Escandon, telephone 15-34-02. The phone is listed to Francisca TORRES Vda de BAYARDI. (7)

9) Leila S. BELAVAL, visa officer at U.S. Embassy.

In June 1967 BELAVAL reported that she had been in contact with Subject over visa matters, that Subject had asked her what she did in the evenings, whether she spent her off hours with other U.S. Embassy employees, and had said that he was unmarried. In June 1967 he offered to take her to the Ukrainian Ballet when it came to Mexico. She refused his invitations. (27)

10) Carlos BLANCO Solano (F-9328), former Federal Security (DFS) agent, now with Judicial Police. In 1960-61 BLANCO invited several U.S. Embassy girls out and offered his services to the U.S. Embassy. BLANCO works for Carlos CASANADRID Miranda, who is suspected of having a clandestine relationship with KGB officer Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV.

On 1 November 1965 BLANCO called Subject at the Soviet Embassy and remarked that they had not seen each other for a long time. Subject said he would call BLANCO to get together the following Wednesday. (1) On 8 September 1966 Graciela SOTO (q.v.), who described herself
15. CONTACTS: Continued.

b. Non-Soviet:

10) Carlos BLANCO Solano Continued

as BLANCO's friend, invited Subject to the baptism of her son Rafael's child and mentioned that BLANCO's wife Magdalena was going. (1) On 10 November 1966 BLANCO invited Subject to a party for BLANCO's daughter, said they would first go to the church near Graciela's house on Tamaulipas. (1) On 6 December 1966 BLANCO told Subject that "Comandante Carlos" (Presumably CASARADRID) urgently wanted to see YATSKOV, and Subject said he would have YATSKOV call him. (1)

11) Lubomir BLAZIK (P-1730, 201-206043), former Czech Second Secretary and Consul in Mexico.

On 28 December 1965 P.A. YATSKOV left a message for BLAZIK, that Subject's wife was sick and could not attend the dinner to which the BLAZIKs had invited her. (1)

12) Rosa Martha BRACHO Sanchez (P-12038), left in November 1965 on a scholarship to study ballet in the USSR.

On 21 and 22 September 1966 Rosa's mother (fnu) was in contact with Subject in order to talk to him about visa problems of her two daughters who were both studying dance in the USSR. (1) (Name of other daughter is unknown.)

13) Erica CAMERMAN (P-12843), said to be a reporter with The News (17), but this seems unlikely, no other traces.

On 21 February 1966 CAMERMAN told Subject that she was going out of town the next day but when she got back she wanted to invite Subject and his wife to her house. Subject said he had no word on her papers yet. On 28 February 1966 she said she had been in Cozumel, Subject said he still had no word on her papers. She invited Subject to dinner with his wife, and he said he would call her back. On 10 May 1966 she tried to call Subject, who was out, saying that she wanted to know about the arrival of a man from Russia. On 11 May 1966 Subject told her he still had no answer on her papers. She said she planned to take a business trip to Brussels and Paris in June and mentioned that Elke (LNU) was in Paris visiting her son. On 10 June 1966 Subject asked for CAMERMAN at 18-65-61 and was told she was in Europe for a month (phone listed to importing firm Incomex, S.A. at Isabel la Catolica 45-914). On 6 July 1966 Subject called her at 12-75-32 (listed to the banco de Mexico at Cinco de Mayo 2) and told her he had a document for her. On 11 July 1966 she told Subject that she needed his signature on the document, also sent regards to Subject's wife and children. (1)

14) Ernesto CHAZARO Peregrino (P-12815, 201-800142), assistant security chief of Astilleros de Veracruz, S.A. a shipyard in Veracruz. Said to be the advertent-type, once worked for the Federal Security Police but was fired because of involvement in arms contraband.

CHAZARO Probably did meet Subject on 5 May 1966 in Veracruz. CHAZARO undoubtedly fabricated his story that Subject tried to recruit him after that and set up a 50,00 peso bank account in CHAZARO's name. (30)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

15. (Lie.) Jacobo CHENCINSKY, director of the Instituto de
Interpretres y Traductores, located at Tiber 113.

Subject's contact with CHENCINSKY was presumably been
connected with Subject's taking English at the Instituto.
On 24 March 1966 CHENCINSKY tried unsuccessfully to reach
Subject. On 4 July 1966 CHENCINSKY told Subject that Janet
(LNU, apparently Subject's teacher) had been unable to
fix her working papers and had had to leave Mexico and
asked if Subject's classes could be postponed. Subject
agreed and said he would like to talk to CHENCINSKY. (1)

16) David F. COOLBAUGH (P-12579, 201-796142), American
employed with United Nations in Mexico, co-director of geological
project that two Soviets were also assigned to.

In 1966 Subject was in contact with COOLBAUGH several times
in regard to documenting the two Soviets working on the
UN project. (1)

17) Ana Maria ESCOBAR (P-11858), in 1965 reported to be a
student and also working as private secretary to the FRI chief
for the Federal District.

On 11 October 1965 ESCOBAR tried unsuccessfully to reach
Subject. On 12 October 1965 she told Subject she had
wanted to invite him to the theater the previous day
because she had been given free tickets. She sent
regards to Pablo (presumably Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV). (1)

18) Margaret (aka Magre) FEDOR (P-12967), no other traces.

On 17 March 1966 FEDOR invited Subject to go on a Sunday
outing with a group of friends whom Subject also knew.
She mentioned that she was studying French in the
evenings and was about to begin Russian classes at the
United Nations. Subject said he would call her at home
later. On 28 March 1966 Subject told FEDOR that he had
stopped by her house with theater tickets but she had
been out. Rebeca (LNU) had told FEDOR that the play
was good. FEDOR told Subject that on Saturday there
would be a discussion with Jose CORNEJO (no identifiable
traces), who had been in South America, and Subject said
he would go. On 8 June 1966 FEDOR told Subject that she
was going to go to the U.S. on vacation and mentioned
that Daniel SEIN (no traces) had asked about Subject.
Subject said he would call her later. On 24 August 1966
FEDOR told Subject that there would be a discussion about
India at her house on 26 August, and Subject said he would
try to go. Subject asked her whether she knew the Soviets
working on a United Nations project, but she said she did
not. (1) (COMMENT: FEDOR may work at the United Nations
in Mexico City.)

19) Fnu FLORES, man employed at Mex-American travel agency.

On 15 March 1966 FLORES, who described himself as a friend
of Gloria's and others', asked Subject for visa
information. (1) (Gloria might be Gloria PINTO, cf. below.)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

20) Socorro FLORES (P-12259), formerly employed at Mex-Americana de Viajes travel agency, no other traces.

Subject was first reported in contact with FLORES in September 1965 in connection with travel reservations and for about a year Subject continued to discuss travel arrangements and at the same time flirt with FLORES and also send regards to Susana LNU, who worked with her. FLORES invited Subject to dinner with some of her friends. Subject was very interested in knowing who the friends were, but FLORES said they were not the Americans, because she hadn't seen them. On 8 September 1966 Subject arranged to meet FLORES in front of a movie theater. Then there was no report of contact between them, until on 13 June 1967 FLORES told Subject that she had a new job and asked him to call her at 27-85-50, extension 18 (no Station listing of this number). She mentioned that she had not seen him for a while.

21) Rafael FUSONI Alordi (P-5119, 201-237904), Argentine diplomat, former KGB agent, in occasional social contact with Soviets, primarily through diplomatic functions.

Subject met FUSONI at a consular corps function in January 1967 and again at a Czech Embassy reception in May 1967. Subject later called FUSONI and offered him tickets to a Bolshoy Ballet performance and on 11 June 1967 they attended the Bolshoy performance together and went to supper afterwards. (23)

22) Moises GAMERO de la Fuente, no other traces.

On 6 April 1966 Subject reportedly called telephone number 2-30-65 in Cuernavaca from a pay phone. (8) (This number is listed to GAMERO.)

On 25 November 1965 GONZALEZ gave a party and invited several Soviets. Subject was one of those who attended. (10)

24) Alfonso GUZMAN and Carlos SANDOVAL, of Servicio Diplomatico in the Mexican Foreign Ministry.

Since August 1966 (i.e. when Subject became Consul General), Subject has been reported dealing with GUZMAN and SANDOVAL in regard to Soviet visas. In October 1966 Subject had tickets for GUZMAN to a sports event, but GUZMAN was unable to go. Subject also invited GUZMAN to the Soviet Embassy reception on 7 November 1966. (1)

25) Abdel Rahman HASSAN Abdel-Rahman, First Secretary and Consul at the UAR Embassy in Mexico.

On 1 June 1967 Subject and HASSAN discussed consular affairs and also talked about getting together for tennis the following week. (1)

27) Lee HIGGINS, male, no traces

On 19 May 1966 HIGGINS tried unsuccessfully to call Subject. (1)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

28) Vincent HODGINS, British citizen, sales manager of Canadian Pacific Airlines in Mexico City.

On 28 October 1966 HODGINS contacted Subject, saying that BRADLEY (J.E. Ralph BRADLEY, regional sales manager of Canadian Pacific) had met Subject the night before, and HODGINS wanted to discuss business with Subject. Subject offered to visit HODGINS in his office, (1) (COMMENT: The Soviets began flying with Canadian Pacific when a new Aeroflot flight was put in service to Canada.) On 3 November 1966 HODGINS gave Subject information on flights and Subject said he would stop by his office next week. On 24 February 1967 Subject was reported to have an appointment with HODGINS. (1)

29) Jan JAKOWIEC (P-9097, 201-250618), Polish Second Secretary and Consul in Mexico.

Subject and JAKOWIEC seem to be good friends, in addition to being in contact with each other through consular duties. (19)

30) Karen JOFFER, no other traces.

On 16 August 1966 Subject apologized to JOFFER that he had been busy the week before but said he could see her at 1630 hours that day. (1) (COMMENT: This could well be a routine visa request.)

31) (Dr.) Yury KUTTLER (P-1573), dentist, Soviet contact, Communist sympathizer.

In April 1966 Subject was reported making a dental appointment with KUTTLER. (1) In April 1967 when the tourist agency representative, Miriam AVILA Katz, was trying to get a visa for KUTTLER, Subject spoke scathingly of him and said he would not give him a visa unless he fulfilled all the requirements. (1) Subject explained that he had once gone to KUTTLER to have some dental work done and that KUTTLER had charged him too much, and that this was why he did not want to issue him a visa. (26)

32) Jacques LEMAIRE, representative of French steamship company in Mexico, scheduled to leave Mexico soon, member of French Club, where he probably met Subject.

On 14 July 1967 LEMAIRE invited Subject to the French Embassy reception that day, but Subject was unable to go. LEMAIRE sent regards to Subject's wife. (1)

33) Yuliya LIPOVSKAYA, probably identical with the Julia YASCHIN listed in the telephone book as living in Mexico City 175, phone 15-35-47, presumably the wife of Solomon (aka Julio) YASCHIN.

On 30 November 1965 LIPOVSKAYA contacted Subject and told him a long rambling story about her relatives. Subject was evidently interested, urged her to visit the USSR and suggested she come to the Soviet Embassy to talk to him. On 24 December 1965 LIPOVSKAYA tried to call Subject but was referred by mistake to another Valentin. On 8 and 20 January 1966 she asked Subject if he had heard from her relative, the soccer player Lev YASCHIN, but Subject still had no news for her. (1)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

34) Tatiana HAKOFF Vda de MARCHAND (P-370), widow of Rene MARCHAND, boisselet, former professor at UNAM and director of the Jurcsalav Cultural Institute. She is evidently a native Russian, but French citizen.

Tatiana was seen visiting Subject at the Soviet Embassy on 3 January and 16 April 1967; Subject seemed very friendly with her, and on 16 April 1967 left the Embassy together with her. (7) On 9 January 1967 it appeared that she had asked Subject for a visa. She also told him she had the information on the man who had been consul, but Subject cut her off and said that it would be better for them to get together to discuss it. On 25 February 1967 she told Subject she would help him join a club. On 16 May 1967 she asked Subject if he had called the poles, but he said he had forgotten and would do it right away. (1)

35) (Dr.) Alfonso MARTINEZ Alvarez (P-1799), Guatemalan leftist doctor, has house at Lake Tequesquitengo to which he often invites groups of Soviets.

In May 1967 Subject was reportedly discussing Soviet travel via KLM with de MIER. (1, 6)

38) (Lic.) Oscar OBREGON, Jr., not further identified.

On 2 June 1967 OBREGON, who appeared to be a friend of Subject's, told Subject he would like to invite the Bolshoy troops to his house, but Subject said they would have little time in Mexico City. OBREGON also asked Subject if he could get him some caviar, and Subject said he would bring him some back from Moscow after his vacation. (1)

39) David ORNELAS, of Mundus Tours.

ORNELAS has been Subject's principal contact at Mundus Tours in regard to making travel bookings. There has been no indication of anything more than a business relationship between them, except that in June 1966 Subject gave ORNELAS some magazines. (1)

40) Salvador PAZ Flata (P-12775), shipping agent with Representaciones Maritimas, Soviet Commercial contact.

On 1 March 1966 it was reported that Subject had met PAZ in Pazarlan, and they used the familiar form of address with each other. During 1966 they were occasionally reported making luncheons dates or planning to get together after work. There has been no record of recent contact. (1)

She added that Alfonso (LHU) would be at the Cafe Juju that afternoon at 1700, and Subject said he would try to go and would see Gloria there.

On 13 June 1967 Gloria told Subject that her daughter did not want to work for Ralph (LHU) any more, because they wanted to send her to Pittsburgh. Subject said he could not go to the party Saturday that was to be held at the home of Ernesto ACEVEDO (no identifiable traces). On 12 July 1967 Gloria told Subject that she had everything ready and that she would stop by the Embassy to say goodbye (perhaps going to the USSR). (1)

42) (Miss) Mercedes PINTO, no identifiable traces.

On 2 March 1967 Mercedes PINTO called Subject, who was out of town. (1) (COMMENT: Mercedes could be the sister-in-law of Gloria PINTO mentioned above.)

43) Julio PLATAS Urbina (P-6948, 201-300319), claims to be a Soviet courier, has been in contact with the KGB, may be a provocation agent.

On 29 October 1965 PLATAS called, but Subject was out. On 1 November 1965 PLATA told Subject he had changed jobs, no longer worked for Mex-Hogar but was now with the Confederacion de Trabajadores Mexicanos (labor union). Subject said he would call him. (1)

44) Rafael Alfredo RAYN (P-8415, 201-357138), manager of Garza Lopez Tours.

Subject has been in contact with RAYN in 1966-67 on routine travel matters.

In December 1965 Subject reminded RAYN of YATSKOV's request and asked him to include rail travel to New York and sea travel to Europe on the chart. RAYN never provided the chart. (1)

45) Sara ROSENFIELD and husband Loyd ROSENFIELD (P-11665, 201-789388), both writers for The News.

Both ROSENFIELDS met Subject at a reception at the Indian Embassy given by the Indian Consul K. D. PARASHAR. Subject invited them to Soviet Embassy receptions of 16 February and 23 February 1967, and invited Sara to attend the home show with the consular corps, which she did. On 11 July 1967 they again met briefly at an Indian Embassy reception. (22)

46) Fernando Jose SALOMON Vallecillo, from Nicaragua.

On 24 October 1966 SALOMON told Subject that he had a letter from the Socialist Party of Nicaragua addressed to the Soviet Consul and that he had come specially from Nicaragua to deliver it. Subject said he would talk to SALOMON the next day at the Soviet Embassy. (1) (SALOMON also made an appointment to see the Cuban Ambassador the same day.)
15. CONTACTS: Continued

50) Graciela SOTO, no traces.

On 8 September 1966 Graciela, who described herself as Carlos BLANCO's friend (q.v.), invited Subject to the baptism of her son Rafael's child, also mentioned Rosita, who may be Rafael's wife (no traces on Rafael or Rosita SOTO). On 9 November 1966 Graciela called Subject, started to chat about having a toothache and that she had tried to call him before, but Subject cut her off and said he would call her the next day and to say hello to everyone. On 10 November 1966 Carlos BLANCO invited Subject to a party and said they would first go to the church near Graciela's house on Tamaulipas. (1) (One Alfredo SOTO, no traces, is listed at Tamaulipas 115.)

51) Jiri SVESTKA (F-7111, 201-285441), Czech Second Secretary and Consul, suspect intelligence officer.

Subject and SVESTKA seem to be quite friendly, ban dinner together as well as discussing consular business. (1)

52) Leopoldo VAN DYCK, employee of Air France, said to be a homosexual, has been friendly with other Soviet consular officers.

On 6 and 13 September 1965 Subject was reported in contact with VAN DYCK in regard to visas for Air France passengers. (17) On 5 July 1966 Subject told David ORNELAS of Mundus Tours to give VAN DYCK his regards, adding that VAN DYCK would know what kind of regards they were. (1)

53) Rafael VIDIELLA Ruiz (F-4805, 201-238943), came to Mexico in 1956 with his mother, Lucia RUIZ Garcia (F-4413), who lived in Moscow for 17 years and taught Spanish there.

His current address is Romero de Terreros 922-1, telephone 43-80-16.
15. CONTACTS: Continued

b. Non-Soviet:

53) Rafael VIDIELLA Ruiz (P-4805, 201-238943) Continued

On 19 May 1967 VIDIELLA's wife tried to call Subject, saying that she was calling on behalf of the Instituto de Interpretes y Traductores, and that her husband had written a letter in Russian about some tourists and she wanted a Russian typewriter to have it typed up on. (1)

54) (Col. and Lieut.) Rafael VILLAURRUTIA Lopez, also reported in contact with the Cuban Embassy in Mexico.

On 30 January 1967 VILLAURRUTIA said that he had to go out of town and could not keep his appointment with Subject. (1)

55) Ralph WIEGANDT (P-2254), German who came to Mexico in 1955 and has paint factory, member of French Club.

On 13 March 1967 Mrs. Ruth WIEGANDT, using the familiar form of address with Subject, invited Subject and his wife to Sunday dinner. (1) In April 1967 it was reported that Subject was quite friendly with the WIEGANDTS at the French Club. (15)

56) Douglas H. WILTSHERE, American employed with SERVISA Travel Agency.

On 10 May 1967 WILTSHERE planned to pick up some passports from Subject at the Soviet Embassy and mentioned that he would like to invited Subject to his house. (1)

On 11 October 1966 Subject reminded the Polish Consul, JAKOWIEC, that ZAREBSKI was going to sell some of his items to the Soviets. On 13 October 1966 JAKOWIEC said he could introduce Subject to ZAREBSKI, or Subject could call him directly. (1) Subject had originally met ZAREBSKI at a Polish Embassy reception on 14 December 1965, and at another on 4 October 1966, and they finally did get together on 12 January 1967. Subject asked ZAREBSKI to help the Soviets find a house for a dacha in Cuernavaca, which he eventually did. On 24 February 1967 Subject and several other Soviets visited ZAREBSKI's factory and had lunch with him in Cuernavaca. On 20 May 1967 Subject and Boris Aleksandrovich CHMYKHOV visited ZAREBSKI in connection with the dacha, and on 15 July 1967 Subject and CHMYKHOV visited the factory. (19) (COMMENT: Subject and CHMYKHOV had known each other before in Cuba, and both had mestkom responsibilities for the dacha, so their going to Cuernavaca together is not remarkable, although CHMYKHOV is a GRU officer.)

REDCOAT/Termination of Contact with Subject of Reference

REFERENCE: HMAW-15980, 7 December 1967

1. A draft dispatch on Subject of Reference was prepared in August, but through an oversight, was never typed and sent out. As stated in that draft, Mexico City Station no longer has any operational interest in Subject and does not plan to seek an Operational Approval for her. We regret this delay in reporting. The text of the draft dispatch follows.

2. Subject advised on 2 August 1967 that she planned to leave for the United States within the next two weeks to marry an American citizen and would thereafter settle in New York City. She identified her fiancé as:

Marty HARRIS
Age 35
152 E. 35th St.
New York, N.Y.
Tel. 680-0544

She said he is a textile engineer, but that she did not know the name of the firm he worked for. HARRIS, according to Subject, is Jewish. She said they will be married in early September in a

synagogue in Philadelphia, which is HARRIS's parents' home. They will thereafter take up residence at HARRIS's current New York address.

3. Subject said that she had originally met HARRIS while he was vacationing in Mexico and had maintained a correspondence with him. In July of this year, he called her from New York and asked her to meet him in Cozumel the week of 24 July. During a week together in Cozumel, Subject decided to get married. Subject said she thought that one day she would like to return to Mexico with her husband to live, but that their present plans were to remain in New York indefinitely.

4. In view of Subject's plans to leave Mexico indefinitely, we no longer have any operational interest in her and do not plan to seek an Operational Approval for her.

5. Subject stated she had had no social contact with Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV (201-255412) since December 1966, although she had seen him several times on business since then. She reported on 11 May that her only noteworthy encounter with him since December took place in April in connection with efforts on her part to secure a Soviet visa for a leftist client of hers. LOGINOV balked at granting the visa because of alleged personal dislike of the applicant, but finally gave in as a "personal favor" to Subject. He stated bluntly, however, that Subject should realize "a favor must be repaid by a favor" and renewed in much more direct terms a prior request that Subject introduce him to someone among her friends who was or was inclined to be sympathetic toward the Soviet Union. Subject replied somewhat flippantly that she'd keep the request in mind in case she met or thought of anyone in this category. (Subject had earlier reported that LOGINOV had once specifically asked her if she had any friends in LNPUR, but that she had dodged the question and he had not pursued it.)

6. LICOZY-5 told Francis J. COIGNE in June 1967 that on 5 June LOGINOV had pressed him for information on the local Jewish reaction to the Arab-Israeli war. LICOZY-5 also stated that on 5 June Subject, who was very excited about the war and had even gone to the Israeli Embassy to volunteer to serve in Israel, had told him that when she returned home from work on the evening of 5 June, LOGINOV was waiting for her on the street and tried to pump her for information on local Jewish reactions to the war. LICOZY-5 stated that Subject told him she gave LOGINOV hell for the Soviets' support of the Arabs.

7. LICOZY-5 stated that Subject told him that in March she had been called to LNPUR and had been asked about her contact with LOGINOV. She added, according to LICOZY-5, that she had seen the same LNPUR officer (no name given, according to LICOZY-5) a couple weeks earlier. LICOZY-5 said that she also told him that LOGINOV had asked her to introduce him to "one of her progressive friends" or "someone in LNPUR."

8. The above represented a capsule account of Subject's relationship with her case officer, Keith H. LEVENDERS. COIGNE played innocent until he got the whole story, but finally admitted that he had talked to the girl. COIGNE told LICOZY-5 that Subject had no contact with us and had in fact worried that her activities in our behalf might create trouble for him. Asked by COIGNE what advice he had given Subject, LICOZY-5 said that he had told her to be truthful with the LNPUR officer and to be careful with LOGINOV.

9. On 2 August, during a very friendly "farewell" lunch, LEVENDERS asked Subject both about her most recent contacts with LOGINOV and whether anyone knew of her contact with LNPUR. (She had previously given the strongest assurances that she could be counted on to keep this contact confidential.) With respect to
the first question, she stated that LOGINOV had come to her office a couple of times on visa and Soviet travel business, but that she otherwise had not seen him. Although given ample opportunity, she said nothing about LOGINOV having waited for her in front of her apartment or about his questioning her about local reaction to the Israeli-Arab war. As for the second question, she assured LEVENDERSIS that she had told no one of her contact with him or LOGINOV.

10. We are inclined to believe that Subject lied about not telling anyone of her contact with us because it would have been extremely embarrassing for her to admit that she had failed both to follow instructions and to keep her promise. While it is uncertain exactly why she did tell LICOZY-5, the apparent timing (the second day of the Israeli-Arab war) suggests it was the result of her agitated state of mind, her anger at the Soviets for their support of the Arabs, her possible imminent departure for Israel and the uncertainty of her fate, and her warm regard and respect for LICOZY-5 as a fellow pro-Zionist. (Subject, whose mother is Jewish and who became romantically involved with Israel and Zionism after visiting Israel a couple of years ago, told LEVENDERSIS on 2 August that she had indeed gone to the Israeli Embassy to volunteer to serve in Israel and had been immediately accepted because she had had training in nursing. She said she had been told to stand by for transportation to Israel and had expected to be called literally at any minute. She said that the brevity of the war had made her services unnecessary, however.)

11. While it is clear Subject lied about not having revealed her contact with LNPURE to anyone, we are inclined to believe that LICOZY-5 made up the story of LOGINOV waiting for Subject in front of her apartment and questioning her about local reaction to the war. Knowing LICOZY-5, it seems very possible that he invented the story in order to explain why Subject confided in him - i.e., she was already emotionally upset about the war and when LOGINOV contacted her she understandably told Subject, which led to her revealing the whole story. In any event, we consider the case closed and do not intend to pursue the question of who is telling the truth with LICOZY-5.

CONTACT REPORT

SUBJECT: Elizabeth Duncan WILDE

DATE OF MEETING: 12 December 1967

1. A Headquarters officer made arrangements by telephone for me to interview Subject on 12 December. She was told that I would arrive at Toledo at 10:30 and call her. However, my plane developed mechanical trouble and I called her from Pittsburg to advise that I would be 3 hours late. I arrived at Toledo at 13:30 and called her. We agreed that I would come to her mother's apartment at 14:30. The interview lasted from 14:30 to 18:30. During the last hour we were joined by her mother but, since she is senile and hard of hearing, we were able to continue talking without interruption.

2. I introduced myself as Peter Clark from the Embassy in Mexico. Subject accepted me without question and immediately began telling her story which was about the same as we had received from the political officer. The telling took only 10 minutes. I had considerable difficulty in taking her through a chronological account and holding her to one subject. It became obvious that she is a very self-centered person who is not interested in others unless they make a strong impression on her which LOGINOV obviously did. She is impossible on names, dates or times, asking me at least three times during the interview to repeat my name. On the other hand she was completely cooperative and did not appear to be withholding or distorting information.

3. The following account of her contacts are pieced together from her chaotic account and, thus, is by no means perfect:

a. She was in Mexico about 10 days on her most recent trip and met LOGINOV about a week before she left (ca 10 November). She met him at a party given by a Spanish couple (names forgotten) at their home in the southern part of the city to which her host, Dr. Frederico MARIN (see below) had been invited. It was a large party which included Mexicans, foreigners and diplomats. She met LOGINOV through a German man whom she had just met (van Henrichs or Kendrichs, no meaningful traces.) She talked to LOGINOV on and off for an hour. After an exchange of amenities she remarked that he spoke good English. He said it needed improvement and asked if she would be willing to give him lessons. She would like to but must leave in a week. He asked if she had any American friends who could teach him. She explained that she had friends when she lived in Mexico from 1954 to
1956 but they are all gone now. However she offered to make inquiries and suggested that he go to the American Embassy to find a teacher. He answered that both the American Embassy and his own would frown on the idea and would not think well of it. Later she asked what he would do with his English once he had learned it. He answered that he would like to go to the United States. What would your government think of that? He answered, "Well we all have to better ourselves". During this discussion he got the story of her life including the fact that she has written a book which is still in manuscript (see below). He expressed interest and asked to read it. She said she had a copy and he asked her to drop it off at his embassy. He also said that he doesn't like Mexicans but prefers the company of Americans who are more like Russians. Upon parting it was agreed that she would drop by his embassy to give him the manuscript.

b. Two days later she dropped by his embassy and he talked to her in the outside reception area. She left him the manuscript and told him that he could keep it until she returned to Mexico. He gave her his card. He told her that she shouldn't call him because his phone was always tapped (she assumed he meant it was tapped by his own people). He added that he supposed the same thing happened at the American Embassy and asked, if she went there often. She answered that she had only been there twice in her life. He again inquired about her American friends in Mexico and she answered that she had no current ones. He again said he would like to meet Americans and asked her again to look for an American who could teach him English. On parting he said he would call her before she left (he knew that she was leaving in a few days to take care of her sick mother).

c. He called a day or so later and came over at ca 10:00 to Dr. MARIN's house where she was staying (not on LIENVOY). He asked when she would be back and how could he contact her in the United States. She gave him her mailing address and promised to answer if he wrote. He again asked her to find him an English teacher. She asked him, if he ever thought of going to the United States. Smiling, he answered, "Yes, who doesn't dream of going." He added that he can't go anywhere until he learns the language. She asked, if he would like to make a change. He answered that he has to be careful because he has a mother and family in the USSR. (From this Subject inferred that he would like to change and is only afraid of penalizing his family). He left on the note that she would try to find him a teacher and would contact him upon her return to Mexico.

d. Subject and Dr. MARIN agreed that LOGNOV was a fine person and they should help him get a teacher. Dr. MARIN suggested that Subject go to the American Embassy since they give English classes.
SECRET

- 3 -

(Comment: Mexicans still commonly believe that the Mexican - North American Cultural Institute is part of the Embassy). Therefore Subject went to the Embassy on the morning of 16 December and was referred to a Mexican girl on the second floor (USIS). Subject told this girl her story and received the names of several teachers at the Institute. As she was leaving she thought that the Embassy would be interested in her story and thus fell into the hands of the political officer. She then went back to the Soviet Embassy but LOGINOV was not in so she left the list of teachers with the guard for him. She left Mexico the next day, 17 December.

4. LILYRIC photo coverage shows that Subject was at the Soviet Embassy from 13:35 to 13:42 on 16 November (after leaving the American Embassy). She arrived and departed in a taxi. LILYRIC also reports that LOGINOV was out from 13:14 to 13:52 on that date which confirms Subject's statement that he was not there. LILYRIC photo coverage also shows that Subject visited the Soviet Embassy from 11:20 to 11:54 on 10 November 1967, arriving and departing by taxi, (her first visit to the Embassy). Again, LILYRIC has LOGINOV in the Embassy from 09:07 to 13:45 on that date, thus confirming that Subject actually did see him. Thus her first meeting with LOGINOV at the party was probably on 6 or 8 November 1967. On 7 November LOGINOV was at the reception in the Embassy. LIENVOY has no information on a social engagement for LOGINOV at that time.

5. From her account it was obvious that she was extremely impressed with LOGINOV both physically ("he is such a handsome man") and as a person. From her conversations she concluded that he liked Americans and was interested in meeting them, that he is really interested in learning English so that he can go to the United States and that, somehow, he didn't want his own people to know about these interests and intentions. In fact, LOGINOV did a fine job in debriefing her and in keeping the contact open. This type of activity has become standard for him in Mexico.

6. Although the subject of his marital status never came up, Subject assumes that LOGINOV is single. "He acts like a single man". He loves parties and dancing and sports. (Again, standard behavior for him.)

7. BIOGRAPHIC DATA:

Elizabeth Duncan WILDE was born Elizabeth DUNCAN on 28 December 1918 in Tallahassee, Florida. Her parents were prosperous farmers outside Tallahassee who lost everything in the depression. They then moved to Toledo where her father and brothers gradually built up a successful construction business. Her father died about 10 years ago. Her mother is 81 and is expected to live two or three months. In 1942 she married Elliot H. JACKSON in Dallas, Texas.
They were divorced 4 years later. In 1948 she married William P. STORY III in California. They divorced in 1948. In 1954 she came to Mexico and opened the Scientific Institute for the Correction of Obesity located at Reforma 376. At this time she met and became friends of Dr. MARIN and his wife. On 11 December 1956 she married Russel H. WILDE in Norwalk, Conn. They have been separated for seven years. WILDE who is 15 years her senior was for 37 years a member of the New York law firm, Paul, Weiss, Rifkin, Wharton and Garrison. He left this firm 4 years ago and now is associated with the firm Shelleck, at 485 Madison Ave. He lives at the Yale Club in NYC. In 1957 she sold her institute to her employers. She has been in and out of Mexico ever since, always staying with Dr. MARIN. She also travels regularly to Europe. Her current address is 2024 New Bedford Rd., Spring Lake, N.J. Telephone 449-4230 (unlisted). She is currently living with and caring for her mother at 2829 North Kendale Dr., Apt. 101, Toledo, Ohio. Telephone 419-474-0348. She has no children. She has a generous allowance from her current husband.

3. ASSESSMENT:

Subject was obviously a very handsome woman who appears to have spent her better years running through a series of wealthy husbands and lovers. As noted above, she is extremely self-centered and is uninterested in other people as people. Thus she is a poor observer and reporter. She has a "bug" on Jews and Negroes. She went into great detail on how American "ZIONISTS" control all the information media in the United States and even influence government policy. This is a "conspiracy" which is currently engaged in supporting the Negro movement, especially moving into white housing. This is the subject of her book, noted above. She has also had 4 accidents in the last four years (two fires in her home and two automobile accidents) which she considers a plot against her. She suspects an old, vindictive lover from whom she broke when she discovered that he was a Jew. Although Subject is not nearly as bad as the above distillation would suggest, she is slightly unstable. She is very much interested in helping us against LOGINOV and stated several times that she would cooperate completely. She is clearly not suitable for a long-term or complicated relationship with LOGINOV but could be used on a short-term basis to introduce another person or to be an instrument in a provocation.

9. At the conclusion of the interview, Subject was told that, although she had every reason to interpret events as she did, LOGINOV specializes in contacting and developing Americans as he did her. From her story, there was no reason to believe that he was displaying vulnerabilities. Therefore we have no reason for her to attempt to prolong the relationship or cultivate him. On the other hand she has to contact him in order to get back her manuscript. She is not to suggest further contact but is to report to us any further contact
SECRET

initiated by LOGINOV. Obviously disappointed, Subject agreed to obey instructions. After she has reobtained the manuscript she is to call the Station (x870, Betty calling for Bill Smith) and set a time for the meeting "at the house" (Dr. MARIN's) or at "the Cafe" (Cafe Mississippi). Subject expects to return to Mexico sometime in the spring of 1968.

10. Dr. Frederico MARIN is Subject's host in Mexico. He is a pediatrician who owns a hospital or sanitorium (name and location unknown) in Mexico City. He served as a medical officer with the U.S. Army in World War II. Subject first met him and his wife in 1954 when she opened her institute. They have been close friends ever since. His wife died a year ago. She gave his address as Rio Duero 54, telephone 11-63-60 (no Station traces but checks out in the telephone book). She made me promise that I would not contact him because, as a Mexican, he wouldn't want to get involved between Soviets and Americans. However, when Subject returns we intend to meet him through her to investigate his possible usefulness and as a means of further assessment of Subject.

11. PLANS:

Debrief Subject after her next contact with LOGINOV and meet and assess Dr. MARIN for possible use.

PROGRESS REPORT

1. This report governs the activities of LIROCKET-1 in the period 1 August to 8 December 1957. During this period, with the exception of a summer break, LIROCKET-1 maintained his role as a teacher at the Soviet Embassy. In an effort to summarize the more salient occurrences during this period, we have endeavored to present it, as far as possible, in a chronological manner under the name of the individual to whom the material is related.

2. Boris Alekseyevich KAZANTSEV (201-038975). On 1 August, KAZANTSEV verbally admonished Vladimir Alekseyevich GONCHARENKO (201-760865) for arriving at the class some 10 minutes late and for having neglected to pay LIROCKET-1 on this date. KAZANTSEV, quipped to LIROCKET-1 that "these young men are becoming more irresponsible." Pavel Fedorovich KOVALYEV told LIROCKET-1 that he was preparing invitations for the departure of one of LIROCKET-1's previous students and that he would put one aside for LIROCKET-1. KAZANTSEV interrupted and stated, "I'm inviting the teacher and I will give him the invitation." KOVALYEV made no further comment on the subject. Later, when alone, KAZANTSEV told LIROCKET-1 that he was the "number two man in the Soviet Embassy" even though he holds the number three position. He referred to himself as the Charge d'Affaires. This was the first time that KAZANTSEV had ever spoken of his rank or position to LIROCKET-1.

3. On 17 August KAZANTSEV studied for one hour with LIROCKET-1. LIROCKET-1 commented that KAZANTSEV's level of fluency exceeded all of his other students. According to KAZANTSEV, upon his return home in June, he was required to take his English language examination and scored a final mark of 4.5 out of a possible 5. KAZANTSEV lost the 1/2 point only because he had not read any English language books during the previous months.

4. On 24 August, KAZANTSEV stated that his wife had been having stomach trouble of a undisclosed origin. She had just returned from the hospital where she underwent tests to determine the nature of her illness.

5. During the class of 29 August, KAZANTSEV read an article in the English language newspaper, The News, pertaining to the diminution of the male sex drive among heavy smokers. This triggered a long monologue by KAZANTSEV on the evils of pornographic literature. KAZANTSEV found this aspect of Western society distasteful and serving no useful purpose.

SECRET

NO FURTHER DISTRIBUTION
6. On 31 August, KAZANTSEV told LIROCKET-1 that Semyon Tarasovich BAZAROV (201-040227) was again interested in taking English lessons from LIROCKET-1. LIROCKET-1 commented that he might be able to accommodate BAZAROV only from mid-September to the end of November. KAZANTSEV left the room and contacted BAZAROV. Upon returning KAZANTSEV stated that BAZAROV would have pressing obligations in connection with the forthcoming anniversary and Olympics and could not begin classes until sometime thereafter.

7. On September, KAZANTSEV commented that he would like to continue studying English because he expected to return PCS to his country at the end of 1967 or early 1968. KAZANTSEV acknowledged that he might be asked to stay on during the Olympics. However, he indicated that this was unlikely to prevent him from returning. KAZANTSEV reiterated his desire to depart Mexico in the near future.

8. On 10 October, KAZANTSEV received several pocket books in English which he had requested LIROCKET-1 to pick out for him. LIROCKET-1 selected them from his own library. KAZANTSEV stated that he did not care what subjects were chosen; he wanted them only to improve his reading ability. He did mention, however, that he preferred not to read books which had either violence or pornography as their central theme. LIROCKET-1 brought a book on science fiction which did not particularly interest KAZANTSEV, a book on ballet, and a book on the FBI in which KAZANTSEV seemed very interested. KAZANTSEV stated that he would have to discontinue all of his classes from 10 October to 16 November as he was scheduled for vacation during this period.

9. On 16 November, KAZANTSEV interrupted a class containing Vladimir Makalovitch GONCHARENKO (201-760368) and Yevgeniy Ivanovich BEDRIN (201-760220) to announce that he would not study that day. Immediately, BEDRIN wheeled around and told KAZANTSEV very explicitly that he should remain and study. To this KAZANTSEV replied in English, "See the pressure my chief puts on me". It was quite apparent to LIROCKET-1 that BEDRIN was in charge of the language lessons and that KAZANTSEV was seemingly very hesitant to defy BEDRIN's challenge. KAZANTSEV stated that he had wanted to take a week leave, but in deference to BEDRIN's wishes, KAZANTSEV remained during the rest of the class, although his presence was somewhat of a disruptive factor. Later during the class, LIROCKET-1 had KAZANTSEV and BEDRIN ask each other questions in English - an exercise which KAZANTSEV enjoyed in that his English is superior to BEDRIN's. However, BEDRIN rose to the occasion, comporting himself in a fine manner, and there ensued a lively exchange of questions and answers on non-controversial topics.

10. GONCHARENKO was absent from class from 10 August to 19 September. During this period he was on home leave.

11. On 19 September GONCHARENKO returned to class and LIROCKET-1 complimented him on his improved English facility. GONCHARENKO stated that he had worked diligently on his English during this summer vacation. During the period 19 September to 7 December, GONCHARENKO did not attend classes regularly.
12. BEDRIN was absent from class from 10 August to 19 September. During this period he was on home leave.

13. On 19 September, BEDRIN returned to class and commented that he had not looked at his English lessons since August. BEDRIN related that he had spent most of his vacation in the Leningrad area which is his home as well as his wife's.

14. On 21 September the subject of conversation turned to alcoholic beverages. BEDRIN stated that he couldn't drink vodka like he used to as it gives him too much of a hangover the following day. BEDRIN stated that he preferred whisky (Canadian Club and Seagram's) to any other drink.

15. During the classroom discussion of books on 10 October, LIROCKET-1 noted that BEDRIN has somewhat of an obsession with books of a pornographic nature. BEDRIN had previously remarked to LIROCKET-1 that he enjoys a good spicy story and that during a 1966 layover in Brussels, he sought out and enjoyed viewing a number of sex movies.

16. On 12 October, LIROCKET-1 commented that he might visit the States during the last of October. BEDRIN, privately, asked LIROCKET-1 to purchase for him two 7 inch reel recording tapes and two 8 inch reel tapes. BEDRIN said that "another friend" had brought him some tapes in the past. This was the first time BEDRIN had ever requested LIROCKET-1 to perform any personal favor. On 31 October BEDRIN canceled the order relating that he did not need the requested tapes inasmuch as a "friend" had purchased some Grundig tapes for him while in the US.

17. On 16 November, BEDRIN strongly advised KAZANTSEV to remain for his class rather than skipping it. (See KAZANTSEV, 16 November incident).

18. Valentin Mikhailovich KORNYUKHIN (201-774727) began classes on 21 November, in the company of KAZANTSEV. KORNYUKHIN possesses good, fluent English although his grammar is somewhat unpolished. He speaks with a decidedly British accent. KORNYUKHIN stated that he had been in Mexico for approximately five months and had served previously in Burma from approximately 1962-65. After his assignment in Burma, KORNYUKHIN had worked in Moscow (1965-67). KORNYUKHIN appears to be between 35 and 40 years of age, blonde hair, trim, athletic appearing approximately 6 feet tall and weighing between 165-170 pounds.

19. On 23 November, KAZANTSEV and KORNYUKHIN studied together. During the lesson a slight difference of opinion arose between the two over what their government's position was during the 1964 Cyprus crisis. The exchange reflected the obdurate, somewhat dogmatic character of KORNYUKHIN. LIROCKET-1 characterized KORNYUKHIN as
possessing very strong and fixed ideas. KORNYUKHIN did not appear to be swayed by KAZANTSEV's official position and spoke openly and forcefully to him.

20. On 29 November, during the course of a discussion, KAZANTSEV and KORNYUKHIN again became embroiled in an animated debate. KORNYUKHIN debated KAZANTSEV in an effective and energetic manner seemingly unafraid of correcting or disputing KAZANTSEV. The argument was not personal nor was there any apparent evidence of rancor between the two.

21. On 7 December, KORNYUKHIN studied along with LIROCKET-1. LIROCKET-1 soon discovered that KORNYUKHIN was somewhat of a chameleon in his personality in that he was completely different without the presence of KAZANTSEV. KORNYUKHIN manifested a friendly, affable, and responsive manner, gratefully accepting any criticism from LIROCKET-1 regarding his use of the language and giving up all pretensions of being a hard-nosed personality. LIROCKET-1 garnered the impression that KORNYUKHIN wants to be liked and that his character ambivalence may be a front in order to impress KAZANTSEV. During their conversation, KORNYUKHIN commented that he was having some difficulty in adjusting to Mexico and its weather. In discussing India, KORNYUKHIN stated that India was better off than China, but that the Indians were unmanageable, unorganized, and uncontrollable. KORNYUKHIN stated that he was more impressed with Burma than either India or Mexico.

MISCELLANEOUS

22. During the 28 September class, LIROCKET-1 was sought out by Yergent Nikolayevich GORLITSYN (201-775422) who began talking to LIROCKET-1 in fairly adequate English, capable of making a conversation. GORLITSYN commented that he preferred to study his English along rather than in a class with a tutor. GORLITSYN also stated that he would be required to take his English exam in the near future and that he would hermetically seal himself off for one week while he prepared for it. GORLITSYN stated that he wanted "to maintain his 20% bonus" by passing the English exam. LIROCKET-1 views GORLITSYN as somewhat of a bumpkin, not particularly intelligent, but a plodder. He appears to be a loner in his relationships with others of the same nationality.

23. During this same class, Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV (201-285412) spoke briefly with LIROCKET-1. LOGINOV asked LIROCKET-1 if he would have time to teach English to his eight-year-old son. LIROCKET-1 stated that the hours requested by LOGINOV for lessons would be impossible to accommodate. LOGINOV then began talking of his love for sports and his background as a former judge in Olympic skiing as well as referring to various other sports including tennis. LOGINOV's English is good, although not as fluent as KAZANTSEV's. LOGINOV's problem seems to be a lack of practice. LIROCKET-1 characterized LOGINOV as a highly perceptive individual with a keen sense of intelligence.
FUTURE PLANNING

24. Future planning: LIROCKET-1 will continue to teach at the Soviet Embassy, Mexico two days per week for a total of five hours. His work appears to be quite satisfactory and he is apparently well regarded as a teacher by the Soviet Embassy. LIROCKET-1 assesses KORNYUKHIN as the most interesting pupil with whom he is in contact and, accordingly, intends to concentrate his efforts toward establishing a social rapport with KORNYUKHIN which will lead to an exchange of visits. LIROCKET-1 has been given several Personality Assessment Questionnaires for use in recording observable behavioral patterns in his students.

Yatskov and Valentin S. Logvinov. Both KGB. Although Sandoval must have dealt with Cubans, there is no indication he developed friendship with local Cuban officials.

Nikolay Dmitriyevich CHERNYSHEV, Repatriate from Venezuela

1. According to LIENVOY on 4 September 1967, Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV (201-285412), Consul of the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City placed a call to Havana, Cuba stating that he had in Mexico a family of 5 persons that had to be sent from Cuba to Odessa by boat. LOGINOV said that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had ordered that their passage be paid to the border of the USSR. The family name was given as CHERNYSHEV. According to LOGINOV the family had been given permission to live in Groznyy in the USSR by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

2. On 7 September 1967, LICZY-5 reported that LOGINOV had booked passage to Cuba for a Russian emigre, Nikolay CHERNYSHEV and his family. CHERNYSHEV's wife was born in Italy and his three children Igor, Nataliya and Sergey were all born in Venezuela. LOGINOV also stated to LICZY-5 that the CHERNYSHEVS were repatriates from Venezuela.

3. Plans to send the CHERNYSHEV family to the USSR via Cuba were apparently changed because LIFIRE reported their departure for the USSR via Montreal via Canadian Pacific Airlines Flight 582 on 28 September 1967. The following information on the CHERNYSHEV family was available from the LIFIRE report:

THE CONSULAR SECTION OF THE USSR EMBASSY IN MEXICO CITY

The consular section consists of three persons:
Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV - consul (third secretary)
Vladislav Sergeyevich KORUSKIN - vice consul (Attache)
Vladimir Ivanovich SHPAKEVICH - vice consul (third secretary)

With such a seeming-scarcity of work for the Consulate, it would be sufficient to have only one man for it. But the Soviet Embassy has to have three men handling consular duties. The Consulate is open to visitors twice a week and only two hours a day. Even that is too much for an occasional person who desires a visa for visiting the USSR. However, in addition to their regular duties, the consuls have to arrange various matters relating to visiting Soviet cargo vessels, artistic and cultural groups, etc. On several occasions, they had to do many errands outside of their overt field of activity. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why, in many instances, they cannot be reached on the telephone. All three of them speak fluent Spanish and have no difficulty in getting around and acquiring Mexican friends. Given below are their respective character sketches.

Consul LOGINOV is a rather recent arrival (two years in Mexico) and not very experienced in his job. However, he is learning the ropes quite rapidly and carries a lot of weight among the Embassy staff. LOGINOV is the one who orders cars
to be sent for any visiting dignitary or a performer. He, apparently, scrutinizes and approves the names of doctors and dentists patronized by the Embassy personnel. Recently a Man on Duty said over the phone that LOGINOV had forbidden to be given out the address of a German dentist, whom the Soviets visited quite frequently before.

LOGINOV is also in charge of making up a duty roster for appointing a Man on Duty who would be responsible for anything that took place at the Embassy on that particular day. No one, except the ambassador, seems to be exempt from that duty. On a few occasions LOGINOV encountered hostility to his arbitrary manner of making up the duty roster. Thus, when a Man on Duty called Nikolay Sergeyevich LOGINOV, Press Attaché and a (former?) Cultural Officer, and told him that LOGINOV put his name down as the responsible Man on Duty for the Embassy for that day, LOGINOV said that he was very busy and let LOGINOV do it himself.

Obviously LOGINOV had made a number of secret enemies with his dictatorial manners and his disdainful, monotonous, and slow way of talking. His medium- to high-pitched voice sounds as if he is extremely bored with the world and asks his interlocutor a favor just by talking to him.

His physical appearance seems to confirm that impression. A few newspaper photos show him as a youngish and rather good-looking individual with curly light-brown hair and with
a continuous smile on his lips. Unquestionably, his type of charm appeals to elderly ladies and LOGINOV is quite aware that he is attractive to the other sex. Without a doubt, he tries to capitalize on it and with his fluent Spanish probably tries to ensnare Mexican females. There is no indication that LOGINOV has tried anything of the sort with the Soviet wives. One of the reasons may be that he would not like his wife, Aleksandra Dmitriyeva, a very formidable woman indeed, to get wind of it. On the other hand, the Mexican woman may seem to be more exotic and attractive to LOGINOV than his own countrywomen, in especial his wife, who is a large unattractive female.

Nevertheless, LOGINOV seems to be quite pleasant, with a nice cultured voice, and gets along with her husband well thanks to her good humour and social activity. She has been quite prominent in Nestkom work and in the children's summer camp. Shortly after their arrival, LOGINOV bought a tape-recorder for his wife for 115 dollars. Whether it was to be used for music, or other purposes, has not been determined.

Once in a while, LOGINOV goes on drunken sprees. Thus, on 12 February 1966, he and KORUSHKIN drove us to the embassy gate at three a.m., pounded on the gate, blew their horn and had altercations with Stanislav Sergeyevich SELINOV, who was on duty at that time.
Another very prominent trait of LOGINOV's character is his extreme chauvinism, bordering on jingoism. In reference to other nationalities, LOGINOV uses such deprecatory epithets as: "Amerikashki", "Chidovka", "Yamchura", etc.

It is doubtful if LOGINOV has any true friends. His sneering attitude is probably the reason for it. Although he made several errors in judgment in his work and social behaviour, LOGINOV by no means is a fool and should be kept in mind for any possible developments.

VLADISLAV SERGEYOVICH KORUSHKIN, vice consul (Attaché), is a young man about thirty-three years of age, rather stocky, with blond wavy hair over a high forehead. A pair of heavy-rimmed glasses gives him the appearance of a very intellectual person. On the whole, KORUSHKIN has the air of an easy-going fellow, who can make friends almost overnight. KORUSHKIN and his wife are exceptionally close friends with ANATOLIY VLADIMIROVICH KARASCH, employee of the Commercial Office, and his wife. Both families visit each other quite frequently.

Besides occasional drinking bouts, KORUSHKIN has not been known to practice any skirt-chasing, since his wife, INNA NIKOLAYEVNA, is not a bad-looking woman herself, and both seem to be getting along smoothly. KORUSHKIN is a practicing physician at the Embassy and is quite in demand.
whenever any of the Soviets or his family is ill. KORUSHKIN is also quite active in consular affairs and does most of the leg work for LOGINOV. He is also very active in Red Cross functions, where he is in charge of the Children's section. KORUSHKIN is quite an amiable, energetic and pushy individual and can be quite rude and nasty at times. Undoubtedly, he is looking forward to being a full-fledged consul in time to come. The impression of KORUSHKIN'S ambition and pushy trait in his character is intensified by the sound of his rapid and energetic but pleasant baritone voice.

A curious fact should be cited here. Shortly after his arrival, KORUSHKIN purchased a tape-recorder for 165 dollars or 70 dollars more than the one bought by his "boss" LOGINOV. Why?

It seems that in the future, KORUSHKIN may slow down somewhat, but his inner drive and energy will nevertheless make him a more adroit and skillful individual. His further progress should be watched with interest and caution.

Vladimir Ivanovich SHPAKOVICH, vice-consul (third secretary) seems to be able to handle any job that comes along. Previously he was mentioned as an assistant Cultural Attaché, then substituted for the Press Attaché, while that position remained vacant, and quite recently, while the two consuls are on leave, he has started calling himself "consul".
SHPAKEVICH is of very ordinary appearance, of slight build and dark complexion and is unmarked by any outstanding features, with the exception of a noticeably receding hairline. He wears glasses sometimes. His voice is even pleasing than his looks. It has the unusual chameleon peculiarity of sounding like someone else's. Even SHPAKEVICH'S closest friends cannot recognize his voice at times and he delights in taking advantage of it. Occasionally SHPAKEVICH would call a friend on the phone and start talking in rapid Spanish. When the friend is duly confused and does not know what to say, SHPAKEVICH breaks into an explosive guffaw that somehow lacks true merriment. Since SHPAKEVICH repeats this crude joke time after time it is obvious that his sense of humour is quite rudimentary.

Ordinarily SHPAKEVICH is a cautious individual who dislikes making decisions of importance. He said that he was getting clobbered whenever a decision was wrong. However, SHPAKEVICH can be quite impertinent at the wrong moment and with the wrong person. Thus, when attached to the dancer, PLISETSKAYA'S group as an interpreter in Puebla, SHPAKEVICH called the Embassy about some trivial matter and wanted to talk to ambassador BAZAROV. A man on duty told him that BAZAROV was taking his mid-afternoon rest and was not to be bothered. But SHPAKEVICH persisted in his desire to talk to BAZAROV. Finally BAZAROV took the phone and when he
Found out what SHPAKEVICH wanted to tell him, BAZAROV gave him a verbal lashing that actually sizzled. Nevertheless, later SHPAKEVICH called again and asked for the ambassador. The Man on Duty, Ivan Fedorovich SOLOVATIN, told SHPAKEVICH, "Ah, he roasted you and no before for disturbing his rest and now you want some more of it?" But SHPAKEVICH was not to be put off and SOLOVATIN with a sigh buzzed BAZAROV again. At first BAZAROV was angry but later calmed down and discussed with SHPAKEVICH the well-being of PLISETSKAYA and her group. The above incident may characterize SHPAKEVICH in American vernacular as a "pest" and a "jerk". Both expressions describe his true nature quite well.

It is doubtful if this one-time assistant of the cultural attaché had any extensive schooling. Such inadmissible expressions as, for instance, "Ya khochu doloshit'ya" is a clear indication of his low educational level.

But with all his shortcomings, SHPAKEVICH is probably well liked by the majority of the Soviets. He is easy to get along with, especially with his friends. His closest friends are the families of the Soviet correspondents, the KUZMINYS and the SOLOVYS, and he is also very intimate with Leonid Ksilyevich (Leenka) KUZMINOV, Intourist representative. Sometimes both of them get together with the aim of draining a bottle of cognac. However, there was
no indication that SHPAKEVICH was ever vicious or dead drunk. He is neither a skirt-chaser, although with his fluent Spanish and a human tank for a wife, SHPAKEVICH would be justified in investigating greener pastures among the Mexican women. But he is decidedly devoid of any imagination.

Despite her great bulk, SHPAKEVICH's wife, Tatyana Ivanovna, seems to be a very amiable person and all the Soviet wives agree that she is very "nice". Tatyana is two years SHPAKEVICH's junior, but she acts like a protective mother hen towards him. She has high blood pressure and that was probably why she left for Moscow over a month ago. Consequently SHPAKEVICH is here all by himself for the present and some of his friends, who refer to him simply as "SHPA", invite him occasionally for dinner or lunch.

Yet SHPAKEVICH can also hurt some people's feelings with his callous indifference. Once, when Nina Atanasyevna NIKITINA, wife of the film's representative, Aleksandr Aleksandrovich, begged SHPAKEVICH to drive her home from the Embassy, since she was dead tired after running errands for the Nekton, SHPAKEVICH told her in an indifferent manner that he had no desire to do so and walked away. NIKITINA was so hurt by SHPAKEVICH's attitude that she cried in the street on her way home. Acts of this nature cannot endear him to some people and by all indications, SHPAKEVICH does not seem
to be a very bright individual. Thus, he is being used for any conceivable job that presents itself, but only in the capacity of a temporary stop-gap, as an interpreter, or even as an errand-boy.

LIROBBIN-1 and -2 Progress Report, November 1966 - July 1967

1. The Station continued to maintain contact with the LIROBBINs during the reporting period for the dual purpose of monitoring their relations with the Soviets and using them as sources of information on their heterogeneous social circle. Dwindling contact between the Soviets and the LIROBBINs since March suggests, however, that the Soviets may have lost their earlier interest in the couple.

2. LIROBBIN-1 and -2 had the following contact with the Soviets during the reporting period:

7 November: LIROBBIN-1 and -2 attended the 7 November Soviet Embassy celebration at the invitation of Aleksandr V. PRIKHODKO (201-202739).

20 November: LIROBBIN-1 and -2 attended a Soviet film showing at the Foreign Press Club put on by PRIKHODKO and Vladimir A. DOLGOV (201-763035).

24 November: LIROBBIN-1 and -2 and PRIKHODKO were among the guests at a Thanksgiving dinner given by Pearl GONZALEZ.

10 August 1967
1 December: LIOBEBIN-1 bumped into PRIKRODO in a coffee shop in the vicinity of several boys' schools. PRIKRODO appeared to be deeply engaged in conversation with an unidentified Mexican boy who appeared to be about 20 years old and a student. PRIKRODO greeted LIOBEBIN-1, but neither introduced the boy nor asked LIOBEBIN-1 to join them. PRIKRODO was still talking with the boy when LIOBEBIN-1 left.

Early December: At the invitation of PRIKRODO and Valentin I. KUCHEROV (201-738017), LIOBEBIN-1 and -2 attended a reception in honor of the Bolshoi Ballet at the Soviet Embassy.

3 February: LIOBEBIN-1 and -2 and their daughter attended a dinner and film showing at the Soviet films office along with another American couple the LIOBEBINs had introduced to PRIKRODO. PRIKRODO and KUCHEROV were the hosts.

15 February: LIOBEBIN-1 and -2 met Valentin S. LOGINOV (201-285412), for the first time, at an Indian Embassy reception.

16 February: At LOGINOV's invitation, LIOBEBIN-2 attended a Consular Corps gathering at the Soviet Embassy. LIOBEBIN-1 had left for the United States that morning. PRIKRODO and KUCHEROV both appeared genuinely surprised at seeing LIOBEBIN-2 and learning that she knew LOGINOV. LOGINOV, for his part, also seemed surprised that PRIKRODO and KUCHEROV knew LIOBEBIN-2.

17 February: KUCHEROV came over to LIOBEBIN-2's apartment during the afternoon with an invitation to the Soviet Army Day reception which he had promised on 10 February to deliver personally. As KUCHEROV knew, LIOBEBIN-1 had left for the U.S. KUCHEROV invited himself in for several drinks and stayed for two hours talking about nothing. At one point he noticed a scratch on LIOBEBIN-2's knee and used the opportunity to administer a sympathetic caress which wound up going down the length of her leg. He did not attempt to follow up this amorous gambit, however, and finally left with nothing more than a good-bye bear hug.

23 February: LIOBEBIN-2 attended the Soviet Army Day Reception at the Soviet Embassy, where she talked primarily with PRIKRODO, KUCHEROV, and LOGINOV. She also spoke briefly with LOGINOV, who invited her to go along on a Consular Corps tour of the Mexican Horse Show.

3 March: LIOBEBIN-2 went on the tour of the Horse Show, during which she talked with LOGINOV for about 25 minutes.
31 March: LIROBBIN-2 telephoned PRIKHOZKO about a week in advance and invited him to dinner on this date. He accepted, but failed to show up and never called to apologize.

13 July: LIROBBIN-2 met LOGINOV at an Indian Embassy reception. During a brief conversation with him he told her he was about to leave for the USSR on vacation and that PRIKHOZKO would be doing the same later in the month.

3. As can be seen from the above rundown, none of the LIROBBINS' Soviet contacts have made any effort to see them since early March, and PRIKHOZKO even missed a dinner party without so much as calling to apologize. It therefore appears that the LIROBBINS have at least temporarily been put on the shelf by the Soviets, if not dropped altogether. We expect to get a more definite reading in the fall, when the large number of Soviets now on vacation, including PRIKHOZKO and LOGINOV, have returned and the Soviets have resumed their normal routines.

4. In the course of the reporting period, the LIROBBINS also provided information on 14 non-Soviet acquaintances of interest to the Station.

1. Transmitted herewith are copies of (a) a sketch of the interior of the gatehouse just inside the front gate of the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City and (b) a sketch of the interior of the Reception Room and offices adjoining the gatehouse. Both sketches were prepared by LROCKET-1 and are current as of May 1967. LROCKET-1 has been in the Reception Room approximately 55 times, the gatehouse about 15 times, and the first office twice.

2. Control of Routine Visitors to the Embassy during Business Hours. According to LROCKET-1, traffic through the front gate is essentially controlled by a single guard who operates the gate latch electronically by means of a release button inside the gatehouse. In the course of approximately 125 visits to the Soviet Embassy from January 1966 to the present, LROCKET-1 on occasion has seen as many as three guards in the gatehouse at one time, but there has usually been only one guard present when he has entered and exited the gate (usually about 0915 and 1145, respectively, on Mondays and Fridays prior to mid-January 1967, and about 1530 and 1800 on Tuesdays and Thursdays from mid-January to mid-May 1967). Even when more than one guard has been present, it has appeared that only one of the guards has actually been on duty and that the others have simply been lounging in the gatehouse for want of anything better to do. LROCKET-1 has never seen any of the guards carry arms and has never seen weapons of any kind in the gatehouse. He has seen the following five persons on guard:

duty (identified from mug shots): Ivan Petrovich KARCHIN (201-792164), Valentina Georgiyevna MUKHINA, wife of Anatoly Aleksandrovich MUKHIN (201-293944), Stanislav Sergeyevich SILNIKOV (201-271103), Ivan Fedorovich SOLOMATIN (201-307933), and Nikolay Ivanovich ZAKHAROV (201-779288).

3. To gain entry through the foot gate, the would-be visitor presses the white doorbell button to the left of the foot gate. This button rings a buzzer inside the gatehouse. The guard on duty promptly looks through the observation window which directly faces the footgate. If, presumably, the guard is satisfied that the caller or callers do not look dangerous or suspicious, he disengages the gate latch electronically by pressing one of the two release buttons inside the gatehouse. After the gate latch disengages, it is up to the caller to push (or, when the caller is leaving, pull) the gate open and then close it behind him. The gate locks automatically when closed. According to LIROCKET-1, there is a keyhole on the inside of the gate, but there definitely is no keyhole on the outside. LIROCKET-1 has never seen anyone open the gate with a key.

4. LIROCKET-1 has been present in only about five instances when non-Soviets in vehicles have sought admittance through the vehicle gate, which is adjacent to the foot gate. In each of the five instances, the callers have been delivery men whose trucks have apparently been recognized by the guard. In each instance, the truck has pulled up with its nose to the vehicle gate and the guard has walked to the gate and opened it manually. The vehicle gate consists of two doors which open inward. It is secured by one dead bolt from one door to the other. LIROCKET-1 has never noticed a padlock on the gate. After being admitted to the Embassy grounds, the trucks in each case have driven unaccompanied to and parked under the porte-cochere on the north side of the main Embassy building. After closing the gate, the guard has returned to the gatehouse, where - although LIROCKET-1 has never actually observed a guard doing so - he has evidently telephoned someone inside the main building to give notification of the truck's arrival.

5. LIROCKET-1 has been present perhaps 25 times when pedestrian callers (delivery men, students, persons on visa business) have rung the foot gate buzzer, and in each instance the guard has routinely let them in without going to the gate to question them or observe them more closely. On one occasion, as many as four young Mexican males who appeared to be university students rang the buzzer while LIROCKET-1 was inside the gatehouse, and the guard let them in in the routine manner.

6. Once inside the gate, the pedestrian caller is expected to present himself at the gatehouse door, which is usually left open, and state his business. The guard then either goes next door to summon an Embassy official from one of the two offices of the Reception Room, or, as in Subject's case, uses the interphone to call someone inside the main building. (In LIROCKET-1's case, the guard calls one of his Soviet students.) If instructed to have the caller wait, the guard shows him into the Reception Room. LIROCKET-1 himself has been asked to wait in the Reception Room about 35 times. On approximately 15 occasions, he has been invited into the gatehouse by the guard on duty to chat. On the latter occasions, he has either remained in the gatehouse until one of his Soviet students has appeared to escort him into the main building or has left the gatehouse after a few minutes and gone to the Reception Room to continue waiting for one of his students to arrive. On approximately 60 of LIROCKET-1's visits to the Embassy,
the guard has been instructed by the person on the other end of the interphone to show LIROCKET-1 to the classroom. (Except for two occasions, the Soviets have always used the first room on the left just inside the main entrance to the main building for Subject's classes.) When the guard does show LIROCKET-1 into the classroom, he leaves the gatehouse for between 1 and 3 minutes (depending on whether he opens the classroom windows). The guard has been alone in the gatehouse about half of the 60 times he has shown Subject into the classroom, and has consequently left the gatehouse unattended for 1-3 minutes on approximately 30 occasions.

7. Offices off the Reception Room. There are two offices off the Reception Room. The first office is known from other sources to be used for visa interviews. The second office is presumably used for the same purpose. The first office opens directly into the Reception Room. The second office is at the back of the first office and is entered either through the first office or through an outside door. (LIROCKET-1 has never seen the outside door used, however.) One or both of the offices were occupied by Soviets about 20% of the roughly 40 times LIROCKET-1 was in the Reception Room prior to mid-January 1967 (usually on Monday and Friday mornings between 0915 and 0930). The Soviets frequently left the door to the first office, and somewhat less frequently to the second office, open when they were present. The first door or both doors were sometimes also left open when no Soviet was present. When the door to the first office or the doors to both offices were open and LIROCKET-1 sat opposite the door to the first office, he could see about a quarter of the interior of the first office and a small part of the interior of the second office. Although official Soviet visa hours are only on Tuesdays and Fridays (from 1100-1300), LIROCKET-1 saw Soviets in both offices with about equal frequency on Monday and Friday mornings. From what LIROCKET-1 could see, the Soviets rarely seemed to be busy with desk work, but confined themselves to looking over newspapers, opening mail, chatting with each other, etc. Frequently Soviets went into one of the offices for just a moment and then left. Since LIROCKET-1 has begun going to the Embassy about 1530 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, however, he has always found the door to the first office shut and both offices evidently empty. (COMMENT: This is probably explained by the fact that the Embassy lunch break is from 1400-1500.)

8. LIROCKET-1 recently had occasion to visit Valentin Sergeyevich LOGINOV (201-285412), the Soviet Consul, in the first office from approximately 1830-1900 on a Thursday. At this time he found LOGINOV doing paper work and a stack of 30-35 passports on his desk. LIROCKET-1 also recently stepped into the first office to see LOGINOV at 1830 on a Tuesday, but LOGINOV was just leaving and LIROCKET-1 did not stay. LIROCKET-1 has never been inside the second office. His sketch of the second office is based on what he has been able to see from the Reception Room and the first office. In order not to be conspicuous, he purposely did not look around the first office when he was in it and consequently does not know what kind of furnishings, if any, are on the far side of the first office.

9. From January 1966 to January 1967, LIROCKET-1 was in the Reception Room on 8-10 occasions when other non-Soviet visitors came in. The Soviet interviewer ushered the visitors into one of the offices and closed the door to the first office on about four of these occasions. On two occasions, the Soviet interviewer ushered the visitor into the first office and did not bother to close the door. On four or five occasions, the Soviet interviewer came out into the Reception Room to talk with the visitor in LIROCKET-1's presence. In each of the six or seven cases in which Subject was able to hear the conversation, the Soviet and the visitor were discussing visa matters.
10. LIOCKIT-1 estimated that while he was present in the reception room between January 1966 and January 1967, he observed Soviets in the first office about four times as often as in the second office. From mug shots, he identified the following Soviets as having been the primary users of the two offices during the times he was present:

(a) LOGINOV, one of the two Soviet Vice-Consuls until he became Consul in September 1966. LOGINOV is known KGB. LIOCKIT-1 frequently saw him in the first office and saw him receive several visitors.

(b) Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV (201-120123), Second Secretary and the Consul until September 1966. YATSKOV is known KGB. LIOCKIT-1 saw YATSKOV with about half the frequency of LOGINOV. YATSKOV used both offices. LIOCKIT-1 also saw YATSKOV receive visitors.

(c) Vladislav Sergeyevich KORUSHKIN (201-744341), Vice-Consul and probably KGB. LIOCKIT-1 saw him walk in and out of the first office several times, but never saw him receive visitors.

(d) Ruslan Aleksandrovich TUCHIN (201-205304), the radio and TV correspondent and suspect GRU. LIOCKIT-1 saw him in the second office two or three times, but never saw him receive a visitor.

1. Subject was recruited in May 1963 to accept Soviet recruitment if approached during a visit to the USSR in May-June 1963. Following his return to Mexico, he reported that no effort had been made to recruit or, to his knowledge, cultivate or compromise him. The Station maintained sporadic contact with Subject between June 1963 and August 1964, during which time he furnished limited information on Soviet travelers to and from Mexico and on Soviet interest in increasing tourist traffic between Mexico and the USSR.

2. The Station was notified in August 1964 that Subject's POA had been cancelled. There was then no further contact with him until January 1966, although during the latter part of 1965, Subject on his own initiative gave the LNPURE officer with whom he regularly dealt on visa matters information on Soviet visitors to Mexico, as well as on the visit of the Moscow Symphony to Mexico. The LNPURE officer passed this information on to the Station. In January 1966, Subject advised the LNPURE officer that he was in contact with Pavel Antonovich YATSKOV (201-120123) and Valentin Sergeyovich LOGINOV (201-285412), both of whom had asked him for information on sea and rail travel between Mexico, New York, and Europe. At this time, the LNPURE officer turned Subject over to a new Station case officer who debriefed Subject and obtained his agreement to supply personality information on LOGINOV. Subject stipulated at this time, however, that he did not want to become involved in clandestine meetings or take money, and expressed the desire to meet the case officer in the LNPURE officer's office following the conclusion of Subject's visa business.

(Continued)
The LNPUR officer also informed the case officer that Subject had previously mentioned that he had once been "approached" to supply information on Soviet travelers on a regular basis and had refused to do so. Subject evidently did not specifically say that he had been approached by WOLADY, but this was clearly the implication. Subject told the LNPUR officer that he was willing to supply information he considered unusual or especially interesting, but was not willing to supply information on a routine basis.

3. The Station had no contact with Subject between 6 January and 28 September 1966. On 20 September, the Station learned from LICOST-5 that Subject had been invited along with several other Mexican travel agents to attend an Intourist conference in Moscow from 24-29 October. A meeting was consequently arranged with Subject for 28 September through the LNPUR officer.

4. Subject told the Station officer who met him that he had been meaning to contact the Station about his forthcoming trip, which, he said, he assumed was what the case officer wanted to talk about. He gave the case officer a copy of his invitation to the Intourist conference and on his own initiative offered to provide the Station with a full report of the conference when he returned. However, he stated that he was not interested in working for the Station on a permanent, "agent" basis, in meeting under clandestine circumstances, or taking money. He was willing to help to the extent he was explained, because he believed basically what we did about current world problems and, after all, had lived in WOLADY for many years and regarded it as his "second home". On the basis of this interview and a review of Subject's file, Subject impressed the case officer as a somewhat disingenuous egotist who, despite a genuine sympathy for WOLADY, regarded his cooperation with the Station primarily as a means of insuring his business contacts with LNPUR and as something which had to be kept to a minimum lest it limit his independence or detract him in any way from his business and personal interests. This impression served as the basis for the evaluation of Subject contained in Reference A.

5. The case officer's impression of Subject changed considerably with the next meeting, which was held on 18 October. At this meeting, the case officer gave Subject a defensive briefing for his trip and went over general reporting requirements. Subject surprised the case officer with his friendliness and cooperativeness, and went to great pains to explain that he was more than willing to cooperate with the Station as long as he did not become so deeply involved in intelligence work that his business or personal life was adversely affected. The case officer was impressed by Subject's apparent sincerity and got the definite impression that ever since receiving the Intourist invitation, Subject had been fearful he was again going to be asked to accept a double agent role which, if it materialized, would require him to become far more deeply involved in intelligence work than he wished. Sensing both Subject's relief at not being asked to undertake a more demanding assignment and his concern to make it clear that his heart was nevertheless in the right place, the case officer used the opportunity to again pose the question of whether Subject would be willing to report on a routine basis on persons who booked travel through his agency to the USSR. The case officer told Subject that this information could be forwarded to the Station through the LNPUR officer and assured him that his cooperation in supplying such information would not involve him in a series of escalating intelligence assignments. Evidently satisfied that his role would remain a limited one, Subject agreed to report the desired information on a regular basis. Moreover, he volunteered to check with other travel agencies in order to fulfill specific requirements for information on travelers to the Soviet Union who did not book their travel through his agency.
6. Subject was thoroughly debriefed upon his return from the USSR in early November 1966, at which time he continued to exhibit the same friendliness and cooperativeness noted in paragraph five. He reported that he was aware of no effort to assess, cultivate, or compromise him in the USSR. He provided information both on the formal proceedings of the conference and on individual Soviet and foreign participants, as well as on a Spanish businessman he met in Moscow. This information resulted in three Field Information Reports (HUMA-10,870, 30 November 1966; HUMA-10,871, 30 November 1966; HUMA-10,872, 30 November 1966), one dispatch to Madrid (HUMA-30725, 1 December 1966), and a second to Santiago (HUMA-30749, 2 December 1966). Since furnishing information on his trip to the USSR, Subject has provided information on the travel of the Bolshoi Ballet in Mexico, on a Mexican traveler to the USSR, and on a Soviet student group which was slated to visit Mexico, but which for unknown reasons failed to arrive at the last minute.

7. The only Soviet Subject has recently been in contact with is LOGINOV, whom he occasionally sees on visa matters. According to Subject, their relationship during the past year has been strictly of a business nature and LOGINOV has shown no interest in extending it beyond this. Subject consequently appears to have little to offer in the way of an access agent to the Soviets in the foreseeable future. However, as the manager of one of five Mexican travel agencies Intourist and because of his apparently excellent contacts with key personnel of the other four travel agencies, he promises to be a useful referent on persons who book travel in Mexico to the Soviet Union and other Communist countries.

8. Despite the regularization of our relationship with Subject and his increased cooperativeness, we do not feel we are currently in a position to ask him to undergo an SGSWRL interview. The relationship between the case officer and Subject at this time is essentially one of equals in which Subject is voluntarily assisting INFORC out of ideological motivation. It is true that his strong business interest in maintaining friendly relations with INFORC and INPURE provides us with a degree of control, but we feel that at present it is better left as a form of tacit control than brandished even subtly. It is our opinion that Subject would regard an SGSWRL interview as an effort both to increase our control over him and to draw him deeper into the intelligence business. Such a reaction would in all probability undo much of our recent progress with Subject. Consequently, we would prefer to postpone an SGSWRL interview until either we further solidify our relationship with Subject or we wish to use him in more sensitive work.

FILE IN 201-285412
In accordance with Reference A, Russell K. MUGARE (alias Ted KELLY) joined Mr. L. A. SALOM for a meeting with BESABER on 28 January (see Reference A) and met the latter alone for 45 minutes on 2 February.

2. After determining that BESABER has had social contact with Subject of 201-203412 (Name A), Subject of 201-116900 (Name B), and AF-116900, we discussed with respect to Soviet officials in Mexico City, related to these three officials. In the course of the conversations, we told BESABER that Name A is a known KGB officer and that he is a known KGB officer, but that we have no hard evidence to identify REJUVEN as an intelligence officer. He was told that our principal objective in his contact with Soviet officials is to obtain personality data and operational information for use against such Soviets to effect their destruction in the future. Since BESABER has been working with us extensively on the Polish target for over two years, none of the above was new to him.

3. Subject had the following to say about each of the Soviets mentioned above:

a. Name A—This Soviet is just learning to handle himself well in the social situation demanded by his position in the Embassy. BESABER believes he can be brought into a situation where he could be induced to talk and his hair down. Given situation sufficiently persuasive, he could be an easy target for a reasonably pretty and well-dressed female.

During the one social occasion through Polish Embassy, at which BESABER had an opportunity to observe, this Soviet showed concern to REJUVEN, which was because of the latter's social status and high position standing or because of his actual intelligence affinity between the two could not be determined.

(Correlated)
CONCLUSION OF

1. The case has been a difficult one.

2. On occasion, in the last few months, there have been a number of problems.

3. After some thought, the conclusion is that he be moved to another area.

4. He has been making this statement on nothing more than "feel." Later in the conversation, SCHEER said that he would be able to test his belief.

5. Eventually, use of his New York address (idea of headquarters to be forwarded) is known to SCHEER as a homosexual. SCHEER believes that this can be used to provide the opportunity. It was suggested that SCHEER's penchant for tennis (of which SCHEER was earlier advised) might provide the entree since SCHEER's wife is an avid tennis player. From the above, SCHEER's assessment of SCHEER's emphasis on everything we already know concerning the defendant's talents, abilities, social charm, etc.

6. SCHEER has given the following requirements with respect to the above: (1) the idea of a change in the MILITARY (after 1945) to a city after his return.

7. SCHEER's social relationships and activities involved in their non-official social activities, including involvement with them. To look for an opportunity to see every day of the week, to be able to determine whether the defendant's reference is not to be used for any other purpose.

8. The defendant's social relationships and activities involved in their non-official social activities, including involvement with them. To look for an opportunity to see every day of the week, to be able to determine whether the defendant's reference is not to be used for any other purpose.

9. The defendant's social relationships and activities involved in their non-official social activities, including involvement with them. To look for an opportunity to see every day of the week, to be able to determine whether the defendant's reference is not to be used for any other purpose.

10. The defendant's social relationships and activities involved in their non-official social activities, including involvement with them. To look for an opportunity to see every day of the week, to be able to determine whether the defendant's reference is not to be used for any other purpose.
CONTINUATION OF
DISPATCH

This letter is to inform you of the potential financial benefits of expanding our business operations into several countries. The idea is to diversify our risk by investing in new markets. With our help, he could expand his business into several countries and, thus, provide us with extensive cover possibilities (even in Europe) and the opportunity to take the risk without assurance that his losses, should they occur, will be completely covered through his association with us.

2. We are having LIOXY-5 check further into the details of and his own prospects for making the Air France inaugural flight to Shanghai referred to in paragraph 3 B. According to the local Air France manager, he suggested that LIOXY-5 participate in the flight, the flight is scheduled for late April or early May 1967. According to the Air France manager, although the Air France route to Shanghai has been operative since the fall of 1966, it is customary to have an official inaugural flight in which specially invited travel agents take part.

3. In view of LIOXY-5's long-time double agent role and his poor reporting in the past, we doubt there is much to be gained from having him take the proposed trip. Consequently, unless YZ Division has particular interest in LIOXY-5 making the trip, we plan to tell him that we have no interest in him doing so. Please advise us by 20 February of any YZ interest.

SUBJECT: Progress Report/ Update (1 November 1966 - 15 January 1967)

RECEIVED: USA-20721, 1 December 1966

1. The last Progress Report (see reference) reported developments in the operation through 31 October 1966, but not included were Subject's activities at the INTELSAT Conference in Moscow to which Subject traveled on 22 October 1966. These activities will be reported below.

2. Contacts

A. Subject and KGB Case Officer

Subject's frequent visits in Moscow during October 1966 from a former KGB case officer in Mexico, Oleg Nekhiporov, Subject since his return to Mexico from his European and Israel trip in mid-November has seen KGB officers on four occasions for a total time of less than an hour.

In Moscow, where Subject was attending the INTELSAT Conference, Subject was visited briefly every day in his room at the Hotel National by Nekhiporov, from 24 October through 26 October.

First contact by the Soviets on Subject's return to Mexico was effected by KGB case officer Alexander Vladimirovich Prishchepov (201-202279) on 3 December in Subject's office for a few minutes. On 4 December, KGB case officer, Oleg Nekhiporov, Subject's regular KGB case officer, called Subject down to the street outside Subject's office to present him with KGB Ballet tickets. On 19 December, Nekhiporov visited Subject's office and spent no more than half an hour there. On 20 or 21 December, Subject was paid a brief visit by KGB case officer and possible candidate for contact (201-120129) at Subject's office.

B. Subject and KGB City Station Chief Officer

In the two months since Subject's return from Europe in mid-November 1966, the C/O, Ivanov A. Kornilov, has seen Subject six times for an approximate total of nine hours.

The C/O met Subject at his office on 22 November for two hours.

In December, the C/O met Subject three times, on 6 December at his office for almost two hours, on 12 December at the Hotel Reforma for a half-hour, and on 22 December at Subject's office for an hour.

On 7 January 1967, the C/O and his wife took Subject and his wife out for dinner at the Belvedere Room of the Hotel Continental Mexico, to reciprocate for a former invitation to Subject's home. On 12 January, the C/O met Subject at the latter's office for one hour.

Subject arrived in Mexico on 22 October 1966 to attend the INTELSAT Conference
In which travel again on a world-wide basis had been limited. On Subject's second day in London, the Natchiporosko, Subject's former Soviet C/O in Mexico, came to visit him at the Hotel National. Subject deliberately kept his own way his idea so that Natchiporosko would find it difficult to have private words with him. However, Natchiporosko came to visit Subject every day thereafter until Subject's departure, bringing gifts of records, novels, etc. when Natchiporosko found the opportunity the first thing he said Subject was that he heard Subject had been a "robot" and had been difficult in Mexico. Subject, in his half-serious manner, postulated the idea that he was a robot and told Natchiporosko earnestly that he didn't have the time, effort or inclination to indulge in the cooperation that was expected of him. He gave Natchiporosko the old line about friends "hasta la vista" but that he couldn't and wouldn't put out the old effort. Natchiporosko said that was too bad because he had wanted to present Subject to his chiefs and now there was no point in it. Subject shrugged this off. Natchiporosko asked Subject if he would be willing to use his office as a letter-drop. Subject said, reprovingly, that that was not a very smart idea—since agents writing to his firm and to him would then know of Subject's connection with the Soviets and he would thus be exposed. Nevertheless, Natchiporosko told Subject to think it over and talk to Valentin (Lastov) in Mexico about it. Also, Natchiporosko told Subject that they hadn't forgotten about the "branch office" and that Subject shouldn't feel bad about the delay in getting it up. Subject ridiculed that idea, saying that it was the Soviets who should feel bad; for him, he couldn't be bothered in the future with the trip and time involved. Natchiporosko, still not chastened, asked if Subject would provide information on all changes in IIA regulations for travel in Central and South America. Subject said he had given this information to the Soviets in the past. Natchiporosko then asked Subject to continue to give such information to Valentin.

Subject elicited from Natchiporosko that he was working in the Latin American Section of the Foreign Ministry, etc. that he was allowed to come and go as he pleased to visit Subject. In the context of telling Subject that he was not Subject was not getting along with his Soviet friends, Natchiporosko said that he would be coming back to Mexico next year.

One day while Natchiporosko was in his hotel room, the phone rang and Subject picked up the phone. A woman voice asked for "Olga." Subject bellowingly replied in Russian that "Olga" wasn't around, but couldn't he do. In the ensuing conversation Subject found out that the caller was a 25-year-old student, her address and telephone number, and made a date to meet her the following day at the Latin Section of the Petro. Natchiporosko was all in favor of Subject making the date, and in a matter of fact asked the next day to take Subject's son to the circus so that Subject would be free. (Comment: Subject said that he never did go to meet the young girl, but told Natchiporosko that he had gone and the girl had not shown up. Subject was of the opinion that this was not a promotion by the Soviets, but he asked away because he did not want to be involved in anything interesting.)

Then Alexander Irinovsko dropped in unexpectedly at Subject's office on 9 December, while Subject's wife and son were present, the Soviets asked him if he could have lunch with Subject, and the latter put him off telling Irinovsko to call next week. (Comment: Irinovsko did not call.)

On 8 December, Valentin Lastov, who had called Subject's office by phone to invite Subject to come down to the office, told Subject for just a minute to present him with two tickets to the Soviet Ballet for 9 December. (Comment: Subject attended.)
On 29 December, Loginozov was introduced to Subject's office and presented on
his own initiative with him nothing. The Subject presented Subject with four bottles
of vodka for Christmas, and began to ask Subject a series of personal questions:
1) How had Subject left Poland for Paris after WWII - had his documentation been
legal or illegal? Subject assured that it was legal.
2) How was he able to enter Paris - did he have a valid French visa? Subject said
he did. How long did he stay in Paris? Subject said a few months.
3) Was he released from service with the Polish OSS? Subject said yes. Were there
any conditions to this release? Subject said no. Was he supposed to be arrested
by the police? Subject said yes, and related the story of how he was contacted in
Paris (in March 1945) by a Polish diplomat who brought a letter from
Subject's old boss in the OSS, and now Subject assured that latter. Had Subject's
response to the Polish boss positive or negative? Subject said neutral. A key
question, Subject replied that he believed that eighty percent of the Polish were anti-Soviet.
Loginozov said "you are right."

Loginozov asked Subject to go walking along with the American airlines he had
with. Subject said fine, and added why. Loginozov said that maybe, if Subject was
in the chance, he can turn the name of "the director of..." in Paris. Subject
told Loginozov he was wrong to think Subject could get that information. When Loginozov
persisted in knowing whether Subject would tell the director if he did get that
information, Subject dismissed the topic with a coy "maybe."

Subject promised to show Loginozov the documents that backed up his answers to
Loginozov's questions.

On either 30 or 31 December, Paul Yatskov dropped by Subject's office to give
him some gifts he had brought back from Moscow. Yatskov said Subject had done
Yatskov a favor during the holiday season in Moscow by arranging for Subject's travel
in Paris to assist Yatskov. Yatskov expressed great gratitude to Subject and presented
him with a bottle of Cognac and a box of vodka, a decorative box and 100 roses
of carnations. Yatskov (no longer with the post of Soviet Consul in Mexico, and is
a possible candidate for KGB residency) told Subject that he is also grateful for
this Subject has done for "him," and to be sure that Subject will not leave "him"
alone in the realization of their common ideals. Yatskov further stated that
he and Subject have very much in common, and that they should meet. It was
left that Yatskov would call Subject.

B. Subject/Paris City Station

The C/O has Subject at his office on 30 December, 1965 to discuss him on the
results of his trip to Moscow (see paragraph 3 A. above). In addition to providing
information on his contacts with KGB officials, Subject gave incidental information
concerning a female Soviet Jew he met, and the anti-American attitude of a travel
agent from Chile.

In a separate in Subject's office, Subject reported to the C/O about his brief
contacts he had had with KGB officials and Loginozov on 29 and 30 December. The C/O, in
response to a Station request, requested with Subject the topic of the Jewish
community support that Secretary of the Communist Party is alleged to have sought
in his candidacy for next president of Poland. Subject related again the story of
how Jacob Zalkind had come to mention the matter to Subject, including the fact
that Subject was being pressured to use one of the five in identical members of the
Jewish community for Soviet Jewish support (Zalkind did not mention the others).
The C/O reminded that Subject should further with Zalkind only if he had the
opportunity.
On 13 December, Subject reported to the C/O about Logan's personal questions regarding the subject's work (see paragraph 3.4 above). The C/O asked Subject if he had received a letter from Logan. Subject said he had not, and thought it was completely useless to ask the subject about the subject's work. Subject said he felt perfectly at ease in telling the truth to the subject, and had no hesitation in showing them his documentation.

The C/O dropped by Subject's office on 22 December, after having mailed a Christmas gift of flowers to Subject's home the previous day. Subject reported to the C/O that he had met Victor's replacement, Victor H. Franco.

Subject mentioned that he had received a holiday season letter from Sidney, who was now a U.S. State Department official in Chile. Subject had also received a letter from the subject in Chile through Subject. Nothing ever came of it.

Subject reported that he had received a firm invitation from the manager of the hotel in Mexico to go on the August flight of Air France to New York (Shanghai), possibly in April 1957, to which Subject had replied that he "would love to go." The C/O asked Subject if he had any interest in attending the trip. The C/O replied that Subject would be interested.

The C/O then discussed seriously with Subject the importance of how complete his report was from the subject's work. Subject was asked about his conduct (the C/O told Subject that the subject's conduct was "higher up," which incidentally the C/O did not share). The C/O asked Subject to explain his relationship to Logan's request to report the name of the "Chief" in Mexico, and his willingness to turn over the subject's documentation over to the subject. Subject's reply was that he had told the subject that his report was more than adequate because he had only written a letter to the subject, and everything else (the subject's objective) was left to the subject's discretion. He explained his willingness, even more his desire, to see the subject's documentation to the subject, because he wanted to know those details. Subject asked the subject to look at the subject's documentation to the subject, and gave him the go-ahead to pursue the matter.

On 12 January 1957, the C/O was received the subject's expression of interest in seeing Subject's file. The subject from Air France asked Subject for more details concerning the invitation from Air France, and gave him the go-ahead to pursue the matter.

The current C/O, Francisco J. Colinas, will turn Subject over to Francisco J. Colinas before leaving the subject's office on 12 January 1957.
REFERENCE: MEXICO CITY-9930,

1. BESABER first met LOGINOV casually on 14 December 1965 at a Polish Embassy reception for a visiting Parliamentary delegation. No plans were made for recontact, although cards were exchanged and BESABER reported that LOGINOV was quite friendly.

2. It was not until 4 October 1966, almost a year later, that BESABER again ran into LOGINOV at another Polish Embassy reception, this one in honor of the departing Polish Ambassador. On that occasion LOGINOV expressed an interest in buying some of the mosaics that BESABER produces. When LOGINOV found out that Mrs. BESABER was an avid tennis player, he let it be known that he was too, and would enjoy getting together for a game. (Parenthetically, he mentioned that he played regularly at the French Club, but that he did not enjoy the atmosphere there because there were too many Germans.) Finally, when BESABER mentioned that he very much liked Russian vodka, LOGINOV said he would sell him some at Embassy discount prices.

3. On 13 October 1966 LOGINOV tried unsuccessfully to contact BESABER by phone to purchase some mosaics for the Russian athletes who were in town in connection with the "Little Olympics." BESABER unfortunately never got the message that LOGINOV left (although we picked it up on LIENVOY).

4. The Station decided at this point to have BESABER wait for LOGINOV to make the next move, but when by 15 December

there had not been any signs of action, BESABER was instructed to try to get in touch with LOGINOV regarding the purchase of vodka (for Christmas). When Christmas passed without any luck in contacting LOGINOV (BESABER was extremely busy during this period) we decided to change tactics a bit.

5. Per Station instructions BESABER phoned LOGINOV on 12 January 1967 and made arrangements to drop by the Embassy the following morning to show LOGINOV the catalogs of his mosaic ware. BESABER was instructed to take advantage of this meet to try to establish some kind of reason for continuing the relationship (tennis and vodka buying were suggested). As it turned out LOGINOV gave BESABER the necessary opening. After a cursory, but polite look at BESABER's catalogs he LOGINOV dismissed this subject by saying that he was not in the immediate market for any of BESABER's merchandise, but might be in the future. He then changed the subject, mentioned that he was in charge of looking for a house in Cuernavaca to be used by Embassy personnel (LIENNOY confirms that LOGINOV has the responsibility for renting a house in Cuernavaca as a summer retreat for wives and children.) LOGINOV told BESABER that he was prepared to pay 5,000 NN ($400.00 U.S.) per month for June, July and August 1967. He wants a four-bedroom (or more) house with a heated swimming pool and garden. LOGINOV mentioned that in 1966 the Embassy had rented a house on Calle Humboldt, that they had liked it, but that he was not sure they could get a lease again this year. He several times asked BESABER, who lives in Cuernavaca, to help him in locating a suitable house. BESABER of course said he would be delighted to assist LOGINOV and promised to phone him as soon as he found something. On this note the meeting ended.

6. BESABER will be out of town for two weeks (on vacation in Acapulco and in the U.S., as set forth in reference.) In the meantime, he will get one of his employees to look for housing for LOGINOV in Cuernavaca. Shortly after his return to Mexico (about 6 February) he will contact LOGINOV with a suggestion that he come down to look at whatever housing leads have been developed and/or to play tennis and enjoy a day in Cuernavaca.

7. The purpose of this exercise is to establish a familiar social relationship between BESABER and LOGINOV, one that will permit the Station to further assess LOGINOV. To date BESABER's first impressions were not particularly enlightening other than his feeling that LOGINOV is susceptible to further social development. The Station will encourage this activity with BESABER and it will be helpful if Headquarters personnel, if they see BESABER during reference trip, also encourage him.

8. One further matter for the record; BESABER was first introduced to LOGINOV by BEKEEP. They again were together at the Polish Embassy on 4 October 1966. Although BESABER has not told BEKEEP of his meet with LOGINOV on 13 January it is only because BESABER has not seen BEKEEP since before Christmas. BESABER has been instructed to be perfectly open with BEKEEP about having met LOGINOV and in fact it may turn out that LOGINOV and BEKEEP will visit BESABER together. (LOGINOV referred to the possibility in his 13 January meet with BESABER).
9. The Station sees no reason why BESABER cannot handle the development of BEKKEP and LOGINOV at the same time. Where possible we will try to have BESABER arrange to cultivate them separately, but since the two targets are personal friends and see each other quite frequently, we plan to have BESABER be quite candid in mentioning his relationship with one to the other.

10. Finally, we are well aware that since BESABER may well be compromised to the Poles, his relationship with LOGINOV will have to be considered in this light. On the other hand there seems little to be lost, and possibly a great deal to be gained by having BESABER continue to try to develop a close relationship with this Soviet target.
