Subj Summary of interview with Alice w. Dater and Jean Evans McConnell
On Friday, March lu, 1975, Mrs. Alice w. Dater and Mrs. Jean Evans
McConnell were interviewed in the office of the Middle School, Sidwell
Friends School, 3825 Wisconsin Ave., N.W., Wubington, D.C. nte interview
was conducted by Peter R. Clapper. '!be interview began at about ll:uS a.-.
and ended at about 12:30 p.m. The following is a summary of the interview.
Background Information on Mrs. Dater and Mrs. McConnell

'
Mrs. Dater and Mrs. McConnell are the only teachers still at Sidwell Friends ~
School who were there on November 22, 1963. Mrs. Dater and Mrs. McConnell
then as nov taught the 6th and 8th grades respectively.
laekground Information on School Practicea
Usually all students ate lunch in the school cafeteria. The final class ot
the day vas a general assembly !rom about 2:15 p.m. to 3:30p.m. For ~
student to leave early, a p&rel\t would have to write, phone or visit the
Middle School office. Tbe principal there vas Frank Barger, deceased.
His assistant vas Mrs. Harley R. (Lucille) Baker or Bethesda, Met. Many
students were routinely picked up by parents in cara at the end or eaeb
school day.
EYents of November 22, 196.3
Mrs. Dater and Mrs. McConnell agree that it was a normal, tull school day.
Mrs. Dater leamed of the shooting in Dallas from a 5th grade teacher,
Mrs. Ruth Tyson, deceased. Mrs. Tyson visited the faculty room shortly
after lunch, heard the neva on a radio and quietly reported it to
Mrs . Dater who vas teaching a class. Barger then visited Mrs. Barger and
repeated the neva. He indicated be did not want to announce the shooting
immediately. Joseph Kennedy, ll, and Robert Kennedy, 10, were both
students at the school. Barger felt they should be told about their
uncle by their parents. So classes continued.
Mrs. Dater said that Barger told her that Mrs. R.S. McNamara, wife of the
Defense Secretary, whose son was also in the school, called to ask i t
she could help. Barger asked her to contact Mrs. Ethel Keme~ and haft

told the Kennedy boys that their big ear vas blocking traf'fic. He
excused thea. " Then~ according to Mrs. Dater, Barger announced the
assassinat i on. Mrs. MeCormell does not recall the announcnent, but abe
agrees that the students knev " ab ~ut it by the end of the aesembly. She
said s ome of them were eryin~.

I, E. HOWARD HUNT, aff irm the f o llowing t o be my recollec-

1. On tha t date I wa s an empl o yee of the Central Intelligence

'
Agency assigned t o the Domestic Operations Division, located in
a commercial buil d ing in Washington, D. C.
2. I was driving with my late wife on H Street near 8th or 9th
Street when we fir s t heard of the Kennedy shooting on our car
radio. We had been purchasing Chinese groceries at a store named,
as well as I can rec a ll it , "Wah Ling". I do not know how long
after the initial radio reports were made that my wife and I first
he a rd t he news . Brinkley was t he c ommentator I remember because
of his having theorized a 11

right wing plot": i.e., Dallas citizens
had abused Adlai Ste ven son and the climate o f Dall a s extremism had
caused Kennedy's shooting.
3. From the Chine s e grocery s t ore we drove out Wisconsin Avenue
to pick up our daughter, Kevan , from Sidwell Frie nds Sc hool. On
joining us my daughter told us what we al r eady knew: that President
Kennedy had been s hot. She had learned this because two of Robert
Kenne dy's children had been t a ken from Sidwell Friends School, pre-
surnably b y Secret Service agents .
4. From Kevan's school we drove directly to our home on Baltan
Road in Sumner, Maryland (off Massachusetts Avenue extended). At
home was my newly-born son, Davi d (DOB 9/ 1/ 63), a maid, Mary Traynor,

and my wife's aunt, the late Leona Drexler of Chicago . Our elder
son , St. John, a student at nearby Brookmont Elementary School,
was probably already at home. As I recall , our eldest child, Lisa,
arrived soon afterward by bus from Ursuline Academy and joined us
at the television set in our basement recreation room where we
stayed long hours watching t he unfolding of events: the swearing-in
of LBJ, the arrival at Andrews Field of the Presidential coffin,
etc.
5. As to why I was not at my office that entire afternoon, I can
only presume that I had left earl y to help my wife shop for a
planned Chinese dinner , in the preparati on of which I normally
assisted.
6. I was never in Dallas, Texas , until late 1971 when, at the

introduction being performed by and at the office of Bernard L.
Barker.
8. I never at any time met or knew Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby,
or any other person involved in the Dallas slayings .
9. I was not in Mexico in 1963 . In fact, I was not in Mexico
between the years 1961 and 1970 , and have not been there since
a weekend pleasure trip to Acapulco in July of 1970 .

March 10, 1975

SECKEI/SENSITIVE
MEMORANDUM FOR: FILE
FROM: Robert B. Olsen~
SUBJECT: Telephone Interview with E. Howard Hunt
on March 7, 1975
I called Mr. Hunt at his residence in Miami, Florida, after first

clearing the matter with his attorney, Mr. Snyder, of Baltimore.
I asked Mr. Hunt about the apparent inconsistency between his des-
cription to us of the circumstances under which he heard about the
assassination of President Kennedy on November 22, 1963, and the
letter from a former family maid, Mary Traynor. In particular, I
called his attention to the fact that Mrs. Traynor,in her letter,
advises that Mr. and Mrs. Hunt were at home when word of the assas-
inat~on came in a telephone call from Veronica Moppett. This
is inconsistent with Mr. Hunt's statement that he and Mrs. Hunt
heard about the assassination on the car radio while they were in
downtown Washington, D. C. Mr. Hunt stated that Mary Traynor
seems to be in error. He says that it is entirely possible that
there was such a call from Veronica Moppett, although he does not
remember it. He says that a lot of people were calling each other
with the news about the shooting of the President. He says it is
also possible that this was the manner in which Mary Traynor heard
about the shooting and that she is simply in error in her recollec-
tion that the Hunts were then at home.
Hunt stated that he thinks that the Sidwell Friends School dismissed
classes for the day at 3:15pm or 3:30 pm. He says it is possible
that the school was dismissed earlier on the day of the assassination
but he does not know for sure. He acknowledges that he and Mrs. Hunt
would not have known about an earlier dismissal of classes in time to
pick up Kevan unless Mrs. Hunt had called the school while they were
enroute from downtown Washington, D. C. He does not recall making
such a call himself, and he does not recall his wife making one. If
classes let out at the normal time, he and Mrs. Hunt would have arrived
at home, with their daughter Kevan, at about 3:30 or 3:45pm.

/ He states that, as he recalls it, there was some delay between the
time of the death of the President and the time it was made public
f on radio and television. He does not recall whether the death of
the President had been announced by the time he and Mrs. Hunt arrived
at home and he turned on the television set. [The President was pro-
nounced dead at 2:00 pm, Eastern Standard Time. The exact time when
the death was announced on radio or television has not been checked
out.]
He recalls that when he was wa~ching T.V. with his family after arr1v1ng
at home, either Huntley or Brinkley made some statement to the effect
that the assassination was an outgrowth of the hatred of far Right groups
which was much in evidence in Dallas, as had been shown by a recent inci-
dent involving some one spitting into the face of Adlai Stevenson. The
implication made by Huntley or Brinkley was that the assassination had
been accomplished by some one from the far Right Wing. This was before
anything was known about the actual assassin. Hunt remembers commenting
to his family that it was just like Huntley or Brinkley to jump to the
conclusion that the shooting had been by a Right Ninger before any evi-
dence was available concerning the assassin.
Mr. Hunt will give us a detailed affidavit covering his non-involvement

in the various assassinations. He states that he hopes to be able to
avoid another trip back to Washington because he wants to spend as much
time as possible with his eleven-year old daughter, who is very anxious
about her father's impending imprisonment.
Mr. Hunt states that he hopes to be assigned to a minimum security federal

prison in Florida when he reports on March 25.
With respect to the late-night television program on the evening of March 6,

1975, on ABC TV, Hunt states that he recorded the program on tape. It was
an interview of Dick Gregory, Ralph Schoenman, and one of their companions.
None of the above mentioned Hunt's name or that of Sturgis on the program.
He -describes the interviewer pressing Dick Gregory on whether he claims
that the CIA was involved in the assassination of President Kennedy and
Gregory responding that they were not stating that as a fact, but only
that if there was any chance of CIA involvement, then the President's Com-
mission should investigate it. Gregory and his companions showed the
Zapruder film and the major thrust of the program \\'as an emphasis on the
snapping back of the President's head at the time of the fatal shot. One
of the interviewees (I believe he said it was Schoenman) stated that they
did not really expect much from Olsen at the CIA Commission, but th at they
were going to "keep embarrassing him with the fac t s ."
Mr. Hunt feels that the press should give some publicity t o Schoenman's
background with the Bertrand Russell Foundati on .

I I ,, .
1 ~ ry and others connecting
me to thA murde r of President :ohn Kennedy are totally without foundat i
Tr.ey constitute a fa lse and vi ious libe l.
These charges are bizarre ,.
. products of sick mind~.
The Political Left has never bean able or willing t.c accept the fact
that Kennedy 's assass~in
.._, was a man of the Left; thus the Leftist
preoccupation with finding an alternate assassin.
Dick Gregory's smear represents the ultimata in slander and
innuendo c~stomarily characterized as McCarthyism.
The Rockefeller and other investigat ive committees will
probably examine Gregory's charges - as indeed they should. For my
part I would welcome a thorough hi gh-level investigation and a full
airing of all relevant findings. Only if this takes place will I have
any hope of clearing my name and living free from the threats against
my life already made by neurotics.
I was not in Dallas,Texas, on November 22,1963; in fact I
never visited Dallas until eight years later. I did not meet Frank
Sturgis until 1972, nine y e ars aft e r we were allegedly together in
Dallas. I was not in I~xico in 1963 , and I did not meet Lee Harvey
Oswald there or at any other place or time. r1ore over, I shared the
nation's grief over the murder of our President. These are the facts.
Until author it ative investiga tive bodies make knmm their
judgme nt concerning my alleged involvement in the Kennedy murder I
will continue to bring libel actions against any and all parties
who repeat the libel. I must take this course because the libels are
prejudicial to my position before the Court now consi dering my
Appeal from the Watergate affair. And because the libe ls threaten my
only means of livelihood, as a writer. But of even greater concern to
me is that continued publicity given to these reckless
charges could stimulate soma yet-unpublicized maniac into violent
actio n against me and my fami ly.

CIA DOMESTIC ACTI V I ~ IES MARCH 11 I 1975
(re : E . Howard Hunt , Jr . )
On November 22 , :963 I was a fifth grade student at the Sidwell
Friends School in Washington , D. C. My father was not usually at
breakfast with his children , so I do not recall seeing him in the
morning before I wen~ to school . To my knowledge , ho~er , he was
indeed at home . He ~ad not been travelling in the previous months .
I remember tha~ day more c learly than most children my age at
the time , because two of Robert Kennedy ' s sons attended the Sidwell
Friends School . Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was in my class , and Joseph
was a year ahead of me .
It was rumored that afternoon that both Bobby and Joe had t o
be taken out of school . Later , an announcement was made that the
President had been shot in Dallas .
At J : JO p . m., both my mother and my father picked me up at school
and took me home . I believe that they had been shopping earlier ,
because grocery bags were in the car . I told them about the announcemen t
that had been made at school , and my parents said that they had just
heard about it ove~ the car radio. My father ' s reaction was shock and
disbelief .
My father was home that wee kend as well, and the family wa~ched
all of the television coverage related to the Presidential plane ' s
arrival in Washington , and the funeral proceedings .
To my knowledge , my father had not left on any trips the
months preceding the President ' s assasination , he was at home t h e
day of the assasination , and he did not leave home that weekend .

Within the u. S.
712 Jackson Place, N. w.

Dear Mr. Olsen:
Per our telephone conversation yesterday I am submitting

herewith a sworn statement concerning my whereabouts on the
day of the JFK assassination, November 22, 1963.
Today's ~York Times story, as published in Miami,

continues the same tired old Gregory thesis with but a brief
sentence accorded my denial. While I can appreciate the
Commission's desire not to release its findings piecemeal,
please bear in mind that I am slated to return to prison and
I greatly fear that the sinister allegations of my involvement
in the Kennedy assassination will have inflamed the prison
atmosphere to the point of menacing my life. For this reason,
I request that the Commission's verdict on the photographs
purporting to show Sturgis and myself as arrested tramps in
Dallas be made public as soon as possible. Moreover, I am
requesting Judge Sirica to shorten my sentence, and I fear
that my motion is already seriously prejudiced by the false
assertions current in the face of official silence.
Sincerely,
cc: William A. Snyder, Jr., Esq.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Sam Jaffe Inquiry- Hunt and Sturgis
1. Subsequent to Jaffe's inquiry to Art Lundahl last week,

relayed to us by John Hicks, we have been in touch with the Office of
Security (Charlie Kane) and have checked other records to ascertain
Hunt's whereabouts at the time of the Kennedy assassination on
21 November 1963.
2. The Office of Finance has checked Hunt's leave and travel

records for the period September 1963 to January 1964, not knowing
the purpose of our request. The record shows for the four week
pay period ending 23 November 1963 that Hunt took 11 hours sick leave and
no annual leave. In the following pay period he took three hours sick
leave and 27 hours annual leave, but this follows the particular period
in question. His travel record shows official travel in September,
October and December, but none in November; all this travel was to
New York. John Richards states that we already know, as a result of
responses to previous requests, that we have no records on Sturgis
that would show similar information; he was not an Agency employee.
3. Security provided us with a column by Jack A:>derson, of

16 Aprill974, in which he covered the Hunt-Sturgis rumor, dismissing
it. A copy of the news column is attached. This would suggest that,
rather than police photographs of persons rounded up and booked, the
photographs in question are random snapshots of crowds. If this is
correct there would be no related police fingerprint records that could
be checked for vez:tlfication.
4. Kane feels that any inquiry would attract more attention than
it would be worth. I agree. I suggest that we only hold this information
against possible future inquiries on the subject.

The shooting of President Kennedy occurred at about 12:31 PM,
Dallas time, on November 22, 1963, while the Presidential motorcade
was passing Dealey Plaza as it headed gen er ally westward on Elm Street.
Witnesses to the shooting gave to the police varying accounts of where
they thought the shots had come from. Some b e li eved they had come
from the Texas School Book Depository Bui ld ing (TSBD), which was
behind a nd slightly to the right of the President when he was hit; others
thought the shots had come from other directions. Law enforceme n t

officials und erstandably con du cted a widespread search for evidence
1 r elating to the assassination.
l Several h-ours after the shooting, officers of the Dallas Police
l Department checked all railroad freight cars situated on tracks any-
~ where in the vicinity of Dealey Plaza. About six or eight persons who
~
the police referred to as "d ere l icts" were found in or near the fr eight
cars. These person s were taken either to the nearby Dallas County
Sheriff s office. or to the Dallas Po lice Depa rtm ent, for questioning.
All were r e l eased without any arrest record being made, or any
fingerprinting or photographing being done by the authorities. (By
that time, Lee Harvey Oswa ld had already been taken int o custody

and was believed by the Dallas authorities to be responsible for the
assassination of the President and the murder of a Dallas police officer.)
Among the six or eight "derelicts" found in the vicinity of the freight
cars were three men who, according to the arresting officers, had
been found sweeping out a grain car about a mile from the Texas School
Book Depository Building. They were being accompanied to the sheriff's
office by Dallas policemen when they were photographed by several
press photographers on the scene. Copies of five of the photographs
showing the "derelicts" were submitted to the Commission's staff as
evidence. A witness before this Commission testified that he has
ascertained that tlfe three "derelicts" in question were found in a box-
car situated to the northwest of the assassination scene, which would
have been to the right front of the Presidential car at the time of the
shooting. Between the area in which that boxcar was said to be located
and that part of Elm Street where the assassination occurred was a
"grassy knoll." It was alleged by witnesses who volunteered testimony
to the Commission that a bullet fired from the area of that "grassy
knoll" struck President Kennedy in the head. It was also alleged by
the san>e witnesses that one of the three photographed "derelicts"

bears a striking facial resemblance to E. Howard Hunt and that another
of them bears a striking facial resemblance to Frank Sturgis. Finally,
it was alleged that if those two "derelicts" were, in fact, Hunt and
Sturgis, and if the President was in fact struck by a bullet fired from

The photographs of the ''derelicts" in Dallas have been care-
fully and systematically compared with numerous known photographs
of Hunt and Sturgis taken both before and after November 22, 1963.
A compariso n was first made by members of the Commission's staff,
none of whom are experts in photo identifi cation. Even as n o n-experts,
however, it appeared to the mem.bers of th e staff that there was, at
b es t, only a superfi c ial resemblance b e twe e n the Dallas "derelicts"
and Hunt and Sturgis. The der e lict allegedly r esembling Hunt appeared
to be substantially older and smaller than Hunt. The dereli ct all eged ly

to have hair marke dly diffe ren t in type and color from that of Sturgis.

'fO WHOM I'l' MAY CONCERN:
The following statement represents the factual events of

November 22, 1963.
I was e!Jployed by the Central Intelligence Agency from April
1961 through August 1964 as a clerk-typist. On November 22, 1963
I was working for the Domestic Operations Division whose offices
were located at .1717 H Street in Washington, D. C. Ny supervisor
was E. Howard Hunt. On the morning of Friday, November 22, l9L3
I was at my desk doing routine office work. Hr. Hunt was in his
office until lunchtime at which time he left. His secretary, Ms.
l~argaret Amesbury and I were in the office after lunch when a co-
ViOrker came in and in for.ned us that John F. l':enncdy, President of

the United States had been shot. We were told that he was dead
shortly after the first announcement. Ms. Amesbury and I discussed
whether we should leave as Mr. Hunt had not yet returned from
lunch. We decided 'that as soon as he heard the news he would
realize that most government workers had been dismissed, and we
both left our office. \ ,

The shooting of President Kennedy occurred at about 12:31 PM,
Dallas time, on November 22, 1963, while the Presidential motorcade
was passing Dealey Plaza as it headed generally westward on E lm Street.
Witnesses to the shooting gave to the poli ce varying accounts of where
they thought the shots had come from. Some believed they had come
from the Texas School Book Depository Building (TSBD), which was
behind and slightly to the right of the President when he was hit; others
thought the shots had come from other directions. Law enforcement
officials understandably conducted a widespread search for evidence
relating to the assassination.
Several hours after the shooting, officers of the Dallas Police
Departm e nt checked a ll railroad freight cars situated on tracks any-
where in the vicinity of Dealey Plaza. About six or eight persons,
referred to as ''derelicts," were found in or near th e freight \

cars . Th ese p e r so ns were taken either to th e n ea rby Dallas County
Sheriff's office . or t o th e Dallas Po li ce Department, for questioning.
All were r e l eased without any arre s t re co rd b eing made, o r any
fingerprinting or photograph in g being d one by the authorities. (By
that tim e, Lee Harvey Oswald had already be e n tak en into custody
15-10
(
and ,.,as believe d by the Dallas authorities to be r esponsib le for the
assassi n ation of the President and the murder of a Dallas police officer.)
Among the s ix or eight 11

derclicts" found in the vicinity of the freight
cars 1vere three men who, according to the arresting officers, were found
in a boxca r about one-half mile south of the scene of the assassination.
TI1ey were taken to the sheriff's office by the Dallas police officers, who
'
walked northward along the railroad tracks to a point 1vest of the Texas
Schoolbook Depository, then north to Houston Street and back south to the
sheriff's office. This somewhat circuitous route was actually the most
convenient one available according to the Dallas policemen, As the police
and the 11
dere licts 11 p asse d the TSBD Building and headed for the s he riff's
office, they were photographed by several press photographers on the scene.
Copies of five of the photographs showing the 11

derelicts" were submi tted
to the Commission's staff as evidence.
A witness before this Commission testified from hearsay that
th e three ''dereli cts 11 in question were found in a boxcar situated to the
near north1vest ~f the assassination scene, 1vhi ch would have been to th e
right front of the Presidential car at the time of the shooting. Between
the area in which that boxcar was claimed by this witness to be locate d
and that part of Elm St r eet ,,here the a ssassL1ation occurred was a "grassy
knoll." It \vas al l eged by othe r witnesses (associated with the one just
referre d to) who vo lunteered tes timony to the Commission, that a bullet
fired from th e area of that 11

grassy knoll 11 struck President Kennedy in the

(
It was also alleged by the same witnesses that one of the thrc'e

photographed "derelicts" bears a "striking" facial resemblance to
E. Hm<ard Hunt and that another of them bears a "striking" facial
resemblance to Frank Sturgis. Finally, it was alleged that if those
tHo "derelicts" were, in fact, Hunt and Sturgis, and if the President
Has in fact struck by a bullet fired from his right front, the CIA
would be shown to ' be implicated in the killing of President Kennedy.
The photographs of the '"derelicts" in Dallas have been com-
pared with numerous kn01m photographs of Hunt and Sturgis taken both
before and after November 22, 1963. A comparison was first made by

average layman. Their testimony appears to have been based on a
comparison of the 1963 photographs of the "derelicts" with a single
1972 photograph of Sturgis and two 1972 photographs of Hunt.
The Commission staff assembled over fifty photographs taken

'
of Hunt and Sturgis both before and after November 22, 1963. These
photographs were submitted to the FBI photographic laboratory for a

The report of Agent Shaneyfelt, embodied in a Report of the

Director of the FBI, conclttdcd that "neither E. Howard Hunt nor
Frank Sturgis appear as any of the three 'derelicts' arrested m
Dallas, Texas, as shown in the photographs submitted." With respec:t
to Hunt, it was found that he had a much younger appearance, a smooth
and tightly contoured chin, and a more angular or pointed chin, compared

with the "derelict" in question, who was much older, had a chin with
protruding pouches, and a n10re bulbous nose. With respect to Sturgis,
even more distinguishing characteristics \vere observed. Compared
to the "derelict" in question, Sturgis had the very definite appearance

<.. '
of a Latin, whereas the "derelict" had the general appearance of a ...

'
Nordic; Sturgis had very black wavy hair and the Nordic had light or
blonde straighter hair; Sturgis had a rather round face with square
chin lines and the Nordic had an oval face with a more rounded chin;
Sturgis and the Nordic had markedly different ratios between the length
of their noses and the height of their foreheads; and they had different
ear and nose contours.
The Commission staff also ascertained that Hunt is approxi-
mately five feet nine inches tall, and that Sturgis is approximately
five feet eleven inches tall. They respectively so testified, and both
\verc observed in person in -the offices of the Commission. At the
request of the Commission staff, FBI Agent Shaneyfelt made an on-
site study in Dallas, Ltsing the very cameras with \Vhich the photographs
of the 11 uerclicls 11 \vere originally taken. He concluded frotn his study
that the "derelict" allegedly resembling Hunt was about 5 feet, S inches
tall and that the "derelict" allegedly resembling Sturgis was about
6 teet tall.

(Alternate No. 2)
In view of the absence of any credible evidence tend-
ing to identify Hunt or Sturgis with the "derelicts" in
question, or otherwise to establish the presence of Hunt
or sturgis in Dallas on the day of the assassination of

'
President Kennedy, the Commission finds that it is unneces-
sary to consider the allegations that other persons parti-
cipated in the assassination. If there were other
participants in the assassination, no evidence was found
which would connect them in any way with the CIA. The
Commission was not charged with the duty, or given the - ...-
authority, to review the general question whether President
Kennedy's assassination involved a conspiracy. Accordingly,
i t expresses no opinion on that subject.
The Commission is aware that its staff conducted an
investigation relating to allegations that President Kennedy
was struck by at least one bullet fired from the grassy
knoll to his right front, and that it also investigated
allegations that the Zapruder and Nix motion pictures
"reveal" the presence of riflemen in the area of the grassy
knoll. Those investigations included a review by a panel
of experts of all known motion pictures of the assassination,

all photographs and x-rays taken at the autopsy of President
Kennedy, and other related items of evidence, and interviews
with three physicians who have previously been permitted to
review the same materials. These investigations were under-
taken with a view to providing the Commission with the

'
broadest possible range of information on all aspects of
, the allegation that the CIA participated in a conspiracy
1
to assassinate President Kennedy. Nonetheless, the Commis-
I
sion believes that it should not undertake to express views
on matters which lie beyond the range of CIA activities.
Accordingly, it has not analyzed or studied this material
in detail. Nevertheless, for the reasons expressed above,
the Commission concludes that it found no evidence of CIA
involvement in the assassination of President Kennedy.
The products of the Commission staff's investigations,

J
however, will remain with the official records of the
1 Commission.

On the basis of the investigation conducted
by the Commission staff, it cannot be determined with cer-
tainty where Hunt and Sturgis were on the day of the assassi~
nation. However, no credible evidence was found which could
contradict their testimony that they were in Washington, D.C.
and Miami, respectively.
'
3. The Alle ation That Hunt and Stur is Were Found
Near t e Scene o the Assass1nat1on and Taken
to the Dallas County Sheriff's Office
This allegation is based upon a purported re-
semblance between Hunt and Sturgis, on the one hand, and two
persons who were briefly taken into custody in Dallas follow-
ing the assassination.
The shooting of President Kennedy occurred at

about 12:30 p.m., Dallas time, on November 22, 1963, while
the Presidential motorcade was passing Dealey Plaza as it
headed general~y westward on Elm Street. Witnesses to the \ .
shooting gave'the police varying accounts of where they
thought the shots had come from. On the basis of the sound
of the shots, some believed that they had come from the Texas
School Book De pository Building (TSBD), which wa s b e hind and
slightly to the right of the Pr es ide nt whe n he was hit, a nd
others thought the shots h a d come f rom othe r d i rections. La w
enforcement officials under s t a ndably conducte d a wide spread
search for ev i d e nce relating to the a s s as sination.

Several hours after the shooting, officers

'
of the Dallas Police Department checked all railroad freight
l cars situated on tracks anywhere in the vicinity of Dealey
Plaza. About six or eight persons, referred to as "derelicts,"

J were found in or near the freight cars. These persons were
-4
taken either to the nearby Dallas County Sheriff's office, ~:\

:-:, .
or to the Dallas Police Department, for questioning. All
were released ' without any arrest record being made, or any
fingerprinting or photographing being done by the authorities,
Among the six or eight "derelicts" found in the vicinity of

the freight cars were three men who, according to the arrest-
ing officers, were found in a boxcar about one-half mile
south of the scene of the assassination. They were taken to
the sheriff's office by the Dallas police officers, who walked
northward along the railroad tracks to a point west of the
Texas School Book Depository, then north to Houston Street and
back south to the sheriff's office. This somewhat circuitous
route was actu~lly the most convenient one available, accord-
ing to the Dallas policemen. As the police and the "derelicts"
passed the TSBD Building and headed for the sheriff's office,
they were photographed by several press photographers on the
scene. Copies of five of the photographs showing the "derelicts"
were submitted to the Commission's staff as evidence.

A witness who volunteered his testimony to
the Commission's staff stated on the basis of hearsay that
the three "derelicts" in question were found in a boxcar
situated to the near northwest of the assassination scene,
which would have been to the right front of the Presidential
car at the time of the shooting. Between the area in which

'
that boxcar was claimed by this witness to be located and
that part of Elm Street where the assassination occurred

was a "grassy knoll." It was alleged by other witnesses . .r
(who were associated with the first witness and who also
volunteered testimony to the Commission's staff) that a
bullet fired from the area of that "grassy knoll" struck
President Kennedy in the head. It was also alleged by the
same witnesses that one of the three photographed "derelicts"
bears a "striking" facial resemblance to E. Howard Hunt and

that another of them bears a "striking" facial resemblance
to Frank Sturgis. Finally, it was alleged that if those two
"derelicts" were, in fact, Hunt and Sturgis, and if the
President was in fact struck by a bullet fired from his right
front, the CIA would be shown to be implicated in the killing
The photographs of the "derelicts" in Dallas
have been compared with numerous known photographs of Hunt and
Sturgis taken both before and after November 22, 1963. A

comparison was first made by members of the Commission's

staff, none of whom are experts in photo identification.
Even as non-experts, however, i t appeared to the members
of the staff that there was, at best, only a superficial
resemblance between the Dallas "derelicts" and Hunt and
Sturgis. The "derelict" allegedly resembling Hunt appeared
to be substantially older and smaller than Hunt. The
"derelict" allegedly resembling Sturgis appeared to be
thinner than Sturgis and to have facial features and hair
markedly different from those of Sturgis.
The witnesses who testified to the "striking
resemblance" between the "derelicts" and Hunt and Sturgis
were not shown to have any qualifications in photo identi-
fication beyond that possessed by the average layman. Their
testimony appears to have been based on a comparison of the
1963 photographs of the "derelicts" with a single 1972 photo-
graph of Sturgis and two 1972 photographs of Hunt.
The Commission staff assembled over fifty
photographs taken of Hunt and Sturgis both before and after
November 22, 1963. These photographs were submitted to the
FBI photographic laboratory for a comparison with all known
photographs of the "derelicts." (The FBI assembled a complete

The Commission staff also ascertained that
Hunt is approximately five feet nine inches tall, and that
Sturgis is approximately five feet eleven inches tall. They
respectively so testified, and both were observed in person
in the offices of the Commission. At the request of the
Commission staff, the FBI laboratory made an on-site study
in Dallas, using the very cameras with which the photographs

of the "derelicts" were originally . taken. It concluded from
the study that the "dereli=t" allegedly resembling Hunt was
about 5 feet, 7 inches tall, and that the "derelict" allegedly
resembling Sturgis was about 6 feet 2 inches tall, with a
one inch margin for error in each direction. The difference
between the height of the two "derelicts" was therefore /~

of his attorney, WILLIAM SNYDER, 5406 Springlake Way,
Baltimore , concerning hi s whereabouts on the day President
JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY was assassinated at Dallas, Texas ,
NovP-mber 22, 1963 .
Mr. HUNT recalls fi r s t h earing about the KENNEDY
assassination on his car radio fo l lowing his departure
from a Chinese grocery s t ore in the a=ea of 9th and H
Streets , N.W ., Washington, D. C., with his ~ife DOROTHY
HUNT (Deceased). Hr. and Mrs . IIUNT frequently made trips
to Chinese grocery stores located in the 9th and H Streets
area as they both loved Chinese food. Mr . HUNT had spent
some! time in China during World \.Jar I I a.nd his wife had
lived there for some period of time with her first husband .
Mrs. HUNT \'las an excellent Chinese cook a nd frequently
prepared Chiner-e meals.
Mr . HUNT is not sure but expressed belief
that he must have been on Annual Leave from his employment
at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) on November 22 ,
1963 or else he would not bave been on this shopping trip
,.,i th his wife .
He recalls hearing about the KENNEDY assassination
in the eo.rly or mid-afternoon and believes he had lunch
at home earlier that day with his wife . He can recall no
other events of November 22 , 1963 except this trip and
the fact that he pickf!d up his da ughter , KEVAN, at Sid'ivel.l

MISCELLANEOUS-INFORMATION
CONCERNING
A telephone call was received by the reporting
agent 2/4/75 from a n individual identifying himself as
TOM COONS, (Baltimore telephone number 685-1120),
representing E. HOWARD HUNT. Mr. COONS mentioned that
he had been present a long with Attorney WILLIAM SNYDER
during an interview of Mr. HUNT by the reporting agent
in Washington, D.C. concerning ARTHUR BREMER during
the late summer of 1974. He said he was also aware
Mr. HUNT had been interviewed by me at Mr.
SNYDER's home during the fall , 1974 regarding an
allegation that had appeared in the " National Tattler"
reporting that HUNT had been at Dallas , Texas on the
day President KENNEDY was shot .
Mr. COONS mentioned that his law office had
received a phone call l/31/75 from a representative of
the Rockefeller CIA Commission inquiring about the
"Nationa l Tattler" story. Mr. COONS said it was
his understanding that Rockefeller Commission had
discovered this story through comedian DICK GREGORY.
Mr. COONS is continuing to represent E. HOWARD
HUNT and a civil suit is currently pending ~e\:lrit:y tor
damages from the "National Tattler" for falsely
accusing Mr. HUNT. Mr. COONS asked if the FBI
investigation had been further pursued following
the interview of HUNT and whether or not any
conclusions had been reached . Mr. COONS was informed
I he should direct a 'vritten inquiry to the Director, FBI,
Washington~C. and he indicated this would e done. . v

13 September 197 4
SUBJECT: Press Inquiry Into Kennedy Assassination
1. John Hicks phoned to say that he was passing to me what

he had just passed to the DCI and OLC.
2. Hicks had a phone call from Art Lundahl, vacationing in

Michigan. Lundahl's phone is (616) 731-5491. Lundahl was phoned by
a man identifying himself as an independent news reporter named Sam
Jaffe, of Bethesda. Jaffe said that a couple of others are doing an
investigation of the JFK assassination. In the course of this they were
in Dallas, where they reviewed photographs taken by the Dallas police
of persons rounded up following the assasination. Among these photo-
graphs were pictures of 3 or 4 hoboes, two of which Jaffe says he
identified as Howard Hunt and Sturgis.
3. The telephone call to Lundahl was at the suggestion of Victor

Marchetti, who knew Lundahl's familiarity with photographic development.
He wanted to know of a commercial place they would do enlargements in
order to study the pictures more carefully for a more certain identification.
Lundahl avoided telling Jaffe anything, saying that he was retired and out
of contact. Jaffe wants to see Lundahl when he gets back in October, the
exact date of return being uncertain. Jaffe also said that his information
is being sent to 11Senator Jackson's committee. 11

CIA HJSTO~ICAL REVIEW PROGRAM
MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Security Research Staff
ATTENTION Bruce Solie-
FROM Chief, Investigations Division
SUBJECT : Possible Counterintelligence Matter

(DODS Personnel)
l. Since 19 November 1963, ID/2 has entertained three Covert

Security Approval. requests from DO(CA for potential ghost writers.
These requests have emanated from the office of Mr. Howard Hunt,
A/DO/CA. The three potential DODS ghost writers have all proven
to be of very dubious loyaJ.ty, and, in two of the three cases, a
direct personal. relationship between a DODS official and the po-
tential. ghost writer has been established. Whi1e this ma;y be merely
coincidental., we present this matter for your consideration and any
fUrther action you may deem feasible.
2. The three cases developed in the following manner:
On 19 November 1963, DO/OPRP, in the person of Howard

Hunt, A/DO/CA, requested a PCSA/CSA to utilize
#344-074, as a ghost writer in the United States and abroad
under DODS Project__.. The routing sheet attached to
the request indicated that awas lmown to Mr. John Greely'
DO(AF. On 5 December 1963 Mr. Joseph R. 1-fu.rphy, then a DODS
Security Officer, was apprised of the derogatory information
in our fi1es relative to loyalty and on 5 December
1963 the case was cancelled. Our files indicate that Mr.
Greely was later 1ectured by Se=ity Officials relative to
his re1ationship with 0 . a
On 9 December 1963, DO/OPRP, in the person of Howard
Hunt A/00/CA;equested a PCSA/CSA to utilize one
#3~. 955, as a ghost writer under.DODS Project
Appropriate investigation was conducted, and on
1964, over serious security objection, a Covert
Security Approval., with severe restrictions, was issued to
DOjOPRP. The restrictions proved to be so burdensome to
DOjCA that on 6 July 1964 Howard Hunt, A/00/CA, cancelled
. the case indicating that they would not utilize ~. . . .
within the restrictions. ~investigation disclosed
him to be a person of highlY questionab1e loyalty.

I ,,/-
,v <'' '
"',.../'
On 21 August 1964 Elizabeth Mcintosh, DO/CA requested
a PCSA/CSA to utiliz #397 025, as a
witting ghost writer in the United States. On approximately
27 October 1964 Mr. , DODS/Security was aP-
prised of the derogatory information in our files relative
to loyalty. He discussed this information with
Howard Hunt, A(DO/CA, who indicated that he had been a per-
sonal friend of for some years and despite our in-
formation, felt that was a loyal United States
citizen. Hunt then requested this office to continue its
investigation and reach a security determination. Inter-
estingly LOOK magazine recently published an article called
Red China which is the report of Reynold's interview of
Chinese defector, Tung Chi-Ping. On 17 November 1964 a
memorandum of Information regarding Reynolds was forwarded
to or presentation to Tracey Barnes, Chief,
DODS. On approximately 27 November 1964, Mr. ad-
vised this office that DODS is no longer considering Reynolds
for the position of ghost writer.
3. Please advise us of any further action you may take in this

matter.

1. On 6 April 1964 I talked, b
Hunt to whom I had been referred by
Hunt was having dinner at
Restaurant when a girl got up, came over to
his table, and said "hello". She was Sonya
Toledo who was a receptionist at the Embassy
when Hunt was in Montevideo. She brought over
the man she said was her escort for the evening
and introduced him as tQe subject person.
Hunt said that he remembers that Sonya
married an American GI and came to this country
with him. Her married name is unknown. She
met subject at the Uruguayan Embass~.
2. The above information was reported to Mr. Byrnes,

FBI/WFO, who recognized the Toledo name and who said he
would drop the matter.
3.Byrnes' initial interest was expressed to me on

64 when he called about a 14 January memo by
who wrote that subject had been introduced to
mber of the Agency as a co-owner of the Saville ~
Book Shop on P Street. I called Mrs. who said her
only role in this was as a reports officer and who referred
me to Howard Hunt.

vork on OSS in China. He bas achieved considerable national. prom-

It would seem that the author s fi-xation in regard to the superiority

of the ~lordic to the Latin and Indian races, which permeates the
entire novel, would be most offensive to Latin Americans. The Latin
Americans might well argue that Mt-. Hunt, l.i.ke Ersldne Cal.dwell,
has taken a sa.Dple o! the 1111terate, &JOOral minority in Latin
Americ$- an?- used it to depict a whole culture.
6. In a soliloquy an p. 149, Mr. Hunt s North American hero,

Selden, describes Latin l.merican males !1S though they are suffering
!rom a racial or southern continental satyriasis. His play upon
the expressioos mchos buevos- and eajones- conveys the i.Jpressioo
that the author suffers from a fixation that the Latin American
males as a vhole are a race of bravos. The description o! this
characteristic, which he appears to attribute to them, is belabored
through the mouth o! Fedder, a Nazi re.f'ugee on p. 100. It is idle
curse o! this continent. Always the men DlBt wear pistols. Tb.q
must wear spurs and carry small vhips armmd their wrists and have

daughter. When one bas achieved such vengeance, one real..:1.zes that
life can offer no greater tril.Jq)h. It is then that death becomes
unimportant xxx. It is the nature ot our blood. This sort of
writing might be said by Latin Americans to indicate that the author's
thinldng is rooted in the discredited theori.es of Racism. It, as

3. We thea proceeded to the Z9 ,ltema which we would like to :
see modified but which wii'could not conalder clauilied. We mado_o
thia clear to Hunt and went through them one by one, dlacuulng our
concern with each. Hunt contended that moot of theae ltema ahould
not be considered '\Onaiilve aince they had been publicized extenolvely;
in aome caae1 con!irmed Ln testimony; and. in the caae of other
itema, the principal involved were dead,. However, bo agreed tO

language of thia laat item will be changed ao that it no longer leaves.
the impression that the documentation was prt!pared by the Agency
for this operation.
4. When we had finiohe<J- Hunt ar,d his lawyero emphasized

as they had mentioned earlier in the meeting that it might be very
difficult to get the publisher to agree to change in the unclassified
items. Mr. Snyder offered to present all of the items to the publisher
for change without diatinguiahing between the classified and Wlclaaai-
fied itemo. He said he would do thia without implying bey were all
classified. I !elt it neceaaary to turn down hie offer because o! the
risk of the publisher being unwilling to accept that many changes
with the reault that we would have to go back to him on the three
classified item. thus presenting a situation similar to our retraction
of previously demanded deletion in the Marchetti book. I think
there would be oome danger of the publisher using this in his adver-
tising and through reviewers for publicity purposes.
5. Aa we were. leaving, Hunt ahowed _me what wa.a described

aa a "comfort letter." Thi1 waa a letter written by him to the
publishers on 17 May 1974 at the publioher'a r.equest which said
that in hi1 opinion nothing in the manuacript vlolated any agreement
betwee"n hifnaelt and the CIA, nor Vl.:ould aubjcct him to prosecUtion
under the eapionago lawa. Aa the meeting waa ending, Hunt expressed
his hope that no publicity would be ~iven to it and that lhe Agency.
would not iaaue any kind of a prose reh.:aBe. In view o( the Directors
dcciaion that we shall iaauc a pres a release, !.took pains to persuade
Hunt that public acknowledgtnent of the fact that we had reviewed his

and the Agency, leavinl an inference that the book wao cle1igned to be 1

nothina in hie book will harm our operation or personnel.

Henry L. BRETTON
1
Office of Security records contain a file on a Henry L.

Bretton who was born on May 18, 1916 in Berlin, Germany. As 1
of 1963, this person was Professor of Political Science at
the University of Michigan. He also has been l~nown as Henry_ Hans
Heinz Bismark and Henry Burk. The information in the following 1
paragraphs pertains to this Henry L. Bretton who is probably
identical to the writer of-the letter dated 3 January 1975 to
the Director.
1
In July 1945 Bretton, who was an Army enlisted man attached
to MIS (Fwd) FID, was under consideration for transfer to OSS.
An investigation at that time raised questions as to Bretton's 1
political symp'l.thies. Consequently, Bretton w:,s security dis-
approved in August 194:. for transfer to oss.
Bretton was informed in 1945 that he \vould not be hired by 1
OSS because "Washington Security would not approve his employment."
Bretton reportedly was "distressed" by this decision. In December
1945, when Bretton returned to the U.S., he personally called at 1
the Security Office and stated he was aware he had been disapproved
and requested the reason thereof. He was told there were no
openings.
1
In addition, according to a memorandum in Bretton's file
dated 19 November 1945 from the Strategic Services Unit, Mission
to Germany, European Theater, earlier that fall that Unit had 1
tentatively recruited MIS T/4 Henry L. Bretton and that the
Security Branch in Washington failed to pass him. Accord"ng to
this memorandum, when Bretton was told the Unit could not employ
him, Bretton was very much upset. The memorandum indicated 1
that Bretton had earned the high regard of the officers immediat~ly
concerned for some tentative work Bretton had done for the Unit.
In April 1949 Bretton was still evidencing concern for being 1
dismissed from SSU. Bretton was given a statement that the
Adjutant General had no information that the circumstances of
his honorable discharge from the service might in any way be 1
con5idered derogatory.
In July 1956, Bretton was of interest to the Domestic
Collection Division as a potential source of foreign intelligence 1
information. In connection with this interest, National Agency
Name Check was conducted on Bretton at Army Intelligence. The
1
1

records of Army,Intelligence contained a memorandum "dated
16 November 1955 which indicated that 1st Lt. Henry L. Bretton
had made complaints to the CIC, to the IG and to AGO, through
his Congressman, with regard to a personnel security investiga-
tion cond11cted on him. Bre.tton alleged that the Government
investigators had given information to his political opponents
concerning his (Bretton's) Party politics and information .
concerning his marital status. Subsequent inquiry by the 'Army.
failed to indicate misconduct on the part of its investigators.
(Another name check on Bret~on in August 1963
of the files of the Counter InteUigence Records .
Facility, Army Intelligence Center, disclosed that
. - - J
Bretton was investigated in .August and September 1955
b~ the CIC (
[ .:JThe results of this investigation reportedly were
ravorable to Bretton. The CIC records also stated that
Bretton at the time was being investigated in conn~ction
with his application for a Reserve Commission.)
. Ba.sed on past (1~45) unresolved questions regardin.g Bretton's
political orientation, Bretton was security disapproved in
September 1961 as L ::J

8 April to brief Stevenson. What Barnes was fnltructed to tell the Ambe.ssador
about the upcomina operation and whot N told him lw been the .ubiect of
much discussion. In his book, A TlwwDnd Do11s, Arthur Scblesirller, who was
f then a mem~r of the White Howe Staff, wrote:
In preperation for the [USUN Cuban} debete, Tncy Barnes and I
.
r-
bad beld a Iolli talk with Stevenson on April 8 (1961} But our
briefi.n&. wb\ch was probably unduh vaaue, left Stevenson with the
impression '.ilat DO action would tah place durin~ tJ-~ UN di..scus:sion
I
c of the Cuban Item. Afterward, when Harlan Ckveland, t.ht ~ant
Secretary for International Or&anizationaJ Affairs, Clavton Fritche}'
of the UnJted States Mission to the UN, and I lunched with Stevenson
at the Century, be made clear that he wholh disapproved of the plan,
reeretted that be bad been liven DO opportunity to eomment on U,
and believed that U would cause Infinite trouble. But, if U was
national policy, be was prepared to make out the best possible case.
TM question of exactly what Stevenson was or was not told hecam t
critical followif\i the D-2 air Jtrih apirut Cuba on 15 April1961. AppeJlrina
ln an emeJ"IenC'Y leSSion of the UN PolitiC) and Se<:uril) Committee on tht
afternoon of 15 April-a session that had been called at the request of Raul
Roa, the Cuban f:>rei.in Minister-Stevenson lUted that the atudt on the
-
airelds bad been conducted bv defectors from Castro's Air Force (FAR) To
IUPPC>rt the defector Jtory, Stevenson presented photQIP'aphs of the 8-26 that
Mario Zuniaa bad landed in Miami This fiction was Quickly e1pced becawt"

A ~t victim of tht air ltrile was Adlai Ste-venson . . .

However, be was kept in the darl about the actual plans and 10 on tM
ven afternoon of the (D-2] attack, in a verbal duel ith Raul Roe 11
an emmency meetini of the UnJted Nations Political Committee, ht
acupted a.s truth the misinformation ht J'l!leeived from WashiJliton
Owles Murphy, who (with CIA 'a blessini) TOte ~ of tht IN articles

From that hapless moment on, Stevenson's role becomes unclear.

hastily concocted in Department and reviled by me at last minute on
assumption this was I clear case or attacb by defecton inside Cuba.
There b pavest risk or another U-2 disaster in such uncoordi-
uted action.11
About this ame time, the Department received another priority c:abJe
from Stevenson for the President and Secretary Rwk a.skina for IUidance to
meet the Soviet charae that armed attach apinst Cuba were beina launched
from the United States. He reQuested authorih to 10 on record as favorina th~
motivation of the Cuban refuaees in the US who were antiCastro, but: ''I wish
to make clear, however, that we wouJd be opposed to In)' ~or our territory
for mountina an ofrensi~ apinst an)' foreiln 1overnment. An advance copy
of this messaae went to Rwk at 9:15 p.m. on Sunday, 16 April 1961.
That Stevenson was ln the dark reprdina det&ils of tM planned anti-
Castro operation also is JUpported bv various individuals involved with the
Arr.ba.ssador du~ the crisis. Correspondenoe with eome or ~ who were
present durina the Barnes brie6na and the crisis follo"ini the D-2 strike
~veals that Bal'm$ did not, in any way, provide det&lls about the anticipated
tactical air opentions-nelther obiectives nor dates-or about the deception
activih. Barnes apparently did indicat~ that there v.as an upcomina invasion,
but none of ~ in attendanoe at the brie6na recalled an}' mention or
numben of troops or the date for D-Da)'.
In respon5c! to JPeci6c inQuiries about his remark that the brie6ng for
Stevenson "was probabh unduh vque" A.rthur Schlesinaer wrote.
I have chec'ked my journal with the follo"ing result. I had an ~
pointment with Dean Rwlc on the morning of April 8, 1961 (in a vain
effort to aet him to op~ tl,e Cu~n adventure), and for that ruson
v.as late in K:ting off for New York. I now Quote the journal
''J then t~l a plane to New Yorlc. I went immediateh to the of-

f\oe of the US Delea.ation to the UK Trac) Barnes (CIAj and Bill

Steveuon. Lookina at your four polntJ. I would MY that Steven10n

(that there would be 1>-DY air ltrilel and that we clld DOt make
point 4 (the JPedSc date of either J>.day or D-2] dear to Stevenson,
leavina him under the impression, u I wrote 1D A TltouMJnd IXJv-,
that the invasion ,rou}d DOt take place while the Cuban ttem was
ander dilcw:sioo at the UN. I do DOt bow why Stevenson was not in
,r formed more precise)) about the date. It was probab)y because the
..
1.
date had DOt been bally 1et In Washin&ton. ud we suwc-ed that
that question could be faced farther dOTt'D the road.
J Based on the previow)y di.Jcussed cable tnf6c from the U!iUN New York
! to the Department of State followini the D-21trike, Schlesinaer'a assumptions
reaardina Barnes'a briefina D-2 and D-Da y were ill error. U D-2 wa.s
mentioned, It b hard to tm.aaine that It was mentiooed in any ccntext other
than that Jt was to be carried out by the CIA-trained, anti-Castro pilots. Tbw
any references that Stevenson picked up about the 15 April ltrile should have
recal.led the le:Uion with Baine$. A1 already mentioned, the D-2 date bad been
let by the moruinl of 6 April, two days prior to the Barnes-Schlesinaer trip to
USUN New York.
Because Schlesinler missed pert of Barnes's brie6na.. Richard F. Pedersen,
then Chief of the Political Section, of the USUN Mission was queried about the
meetina. Pedersen wrote:
I was present with Amb. Stevenson and Amb. (Francis T. P.)
Plimpton In the ~ by Tracy Baines [sic] (and Arthur Schles--
inier) in 1961 . ...
In fact, the brie6na totalh misled Amb. Stevenson, Amb.
Plimpton, and me as to the .-cope and tim.ina of what was undenuy.
The effect of the briefina wa.s this
1) That the CIA wa.s Involved In plans for an Internal
uprisina on the island (This had to have included mention of
outside Cuban assistance thoudl I do not DOw remember this as a
fact.)
--

2) That oothi.na would happen from US territory.

S) That DO US forces or personnel would be involved.

The three key facton for 111 were: appeaJ'I.nOt of an tDtemal

apr1sina, DO US putid~tion, and DOthine dwinl the General
A.Dembly lellion. I am clear about thete mattm. u I was raponsible
~ . for ow lt.andlt01 ol the Cub&n item then belore the General
Allemblv.
-. I wu abo Intimately involved ID the false llatementJ of Gov.
Stnenson. which be made about ~ two aircraft in Florida Just
. before the tnvufon. It was obvious at that point that IOIDethilli wu
aoceJentina (althouah we were completely uninformed about an
tiJvasion). Nevertheless., we were fully usured from Washinaton that
the two planes ID Florida were lecitimate Cuban aircraf l which had
defected.
I wrote the 6nt draft to tlili etfect my,ell. This was then
rewritten tn Washi.nlton. where It wu deared by 5ecret.a.ry R wlc
himJetl and, I was told, by the responsible penon in CIA. When Mr.
Sisco telephoned the redraft beck on Saturday morn.lni (15 Apri)ll
commented about hall way throuah that the draft wu not a denial
. Mr. Sileo aid that It was and that the rest of the tert would &ho.,. that.
- It did, alt.boudllt ma v well he that we lt:renithened the words on the
phone.
I then took the tert to Governor Stevenson, te1Jina him that the
Department bad veri.6ed that, whatever e~ was bappenina, the two
planes CODCeTDed were lettitimate defectina planes of the Cuban Air
Force. & we bv then had pictures of these planes in New Yort a.s
well as the statement\ of the pilots, both of which were also ~ti.mate
if the Washinlton text was true, we added those elements to the
llatement be later made to the Committee.
AJ we were obviowly dea.lina with 1 delicate matter on which it
was important to be riaht, I suaested to Go\. Stevenson he verify the
llatement qaln directly ith Secret.an Rwl. He asked his secretary
to male the call, but Just at that point Mr. Sisco called him Gov. Ste-
venson then erlfied the Jt.atement with Mr. Sisco instead, and we
ahortJy went into the Committee where ~ made it. . ..

added to the confusion about SctvenSOn '1 position. Aocordina to SchJesinaer,
Secretary Rusk:
leeUU for 1 while to have cOntused the phony defector at ley West
with the authentic defector at Jacksonville. Apparently it was not
until late Saturday afternoon that be understood that the ley West
pla.n was part or the CIA plot.11
Schlesinaer himsell still rud not undersand that the ley West B-26 was
not a ..phony" and be teems to ba ve been una ware that Zunii.a, lanc:L..na at
Miami was the iDtended deception.
In his effort to protect the Kennedy White Howe, ~hlesinaer claimed
~t CIA had misled State, and "possibh the A,aency havina worked out its de.
i oeption plan. felt obliaed to deceive even the rest or its own &overn.mmt; or
' possibly ti-t CIA ~urce, ti in the lntel.l.iamce Branch, wa.s himsell unwit-

t.ht air strike, Harlan Cleveland contacted State's Bureau or "lnteramerican
Affairs" (achwh the Bureau of American Republic Affairs), which in turn
t called the CIA, and i! ~inQuiries went to the ..lntelliam~ Brinch" (CA's
Directorr.te for lnteUi&ence), State ca.lled t~ WTODI party.14 ARA/State should
have 10ne direct!)' to Secretan Rwl or to CIA 's Western Hemisphere Division
.. for lnformition on the anti-Castro pro;ect. Rwk's confusion about the three
aircraft in Florida implies ineptitude on his part and on the part or his
immediate staff-not de\iousnes.s on the part of CIA. Unlike Stevenson, Rwl
wa.s full)' rr-ad into the operational plan, even though be would rubseQuentlr
.uaest lo the contrary.

MEI.lOR.'\NDUM FOR TilE RECORD
SUBJECT : Mr. E. Howard Hunt

REFERENCE : Memorandum for Acting General counsel from
Chief, CCS, Dated 2 November 1973
1. With the assistance of Mr. Robert Johnson, Deputy

Director, Passport Office, I thoroughly reviewed eleven (11)
Passport Office files with the name of Edwa.rd HAMILTOU.
These passport applications had been serviced throughout the
United States and consisted of the following:
4 Edward Joseph Hamilton
3 Edward Hamilton
1 Edward Jonas Hamilton
1 Edward James Hamilton
1 Edward Jackson Hamilton
1 Edward John Hamilton
2. A careful review of these files, pictures, dates of
birth, place of birth, etc. indicated that not one of these
passports had been issued to E. Howard HUNT in the name of
Edward Joseph HAMILTON.
3. In addition, I reviewed the file of Frank STURGIS,
A~\ Frank Angelo FIORINI, which contained no reference to
E Howard HUNT, although reference was made to some other
associates in the "Bay of Pigs" period.
4. The file of E. Howard HUUT indicated that HUNT was
issued a Regular (Tourist) passport, #B 1811567, on July 21,
1971, which will expire in July 1976.

Dear Sir:
~ ~::p, \WID:
In September 1975 I was asked by Congressman Henry Gonzalez to
provide .verification of a statement that E. Howard Hunt was CIA Chief of
Station in Mexico City in 1963 for a limited period of time.
I have obtained verification of this from two sources whom I oon -

1
sider to be highly reliable, but , for the record, I would wish to include any
official statement from your agency on this matte r.
This information is being prepared for a report to the House Select
Committe e on Assassinations.
My information is this:
At the time of Lee Harvey Oswald 1 s visit to Mexico City (or allege d
visit). he was the subject of photo surveillance conducted by the agency. At
this time Hunt was chief of station, I am informed, and had overall responsib -
ility for the Fhoto surveillance t e ams set up across the streets from the Cuban
... 4oo\.. -
a n d Soviet em bas s i i
. . ,(
)
A number of photos were taken of an individual posing as Lee Oswald .
The se photos, taken on different occasions since the individual is wearing
different clothing, a re not of Oswald, but of a man who worked for the agency
ir. a nother capacity, ac c ording to a former agency official who has m e t lhi!
man on d iff er e n t occa sions.
..

Specifically, I am requesting, under the Freedom of Information Act,
confirmation or denial of Hunt's employment status and locatio n in the fall
of 1963. Was Hunt employed at the Mexi co City station and, if so , in what
capacity? What was his responsibilities eo far as the ph o to surveillance is
concerned?
Incidentally, while I am writing this letter, I would als o like to
inquire as to whether there is in existence any files or documents in your

\
agency pertaining to myself. If so, I would like to request copies of these
documents in accordance with the provisions of the law.
Please send me your reply as soon as possible.

CIA HlSTORfCAt REVIEW PROGRA"'
SUBJECT: Interview of Mr. Davis Powell
on the David St. John Novels
1. On the morning of 15 February 1974, the

undersigned interviewed Mr. Davis Powell, currently
a Budget Officer on the staff of the Deputy Director
for Management and Services. Mr. Powell is located
in Room 7C18. During 1965 Mr. Powell was Chief of
Support of the then designated Western European Divi-
sion. In July 1965 a contract was written authorizing
sala~ and benefits to Mr. E. Howard Hunt for~ assign-
ment The
purp e of this interview was to determine if r. Powell
had any information on Mr. Hunt's activities during this
period.
2. Mr. Powell responded that from his recollection

it was Mr. Hunt's habit to deal only with the most senior
officer available. In this case Mr. Hunt dealt directly
with the then Chief of Western European Division, Mr.
Rolf Kingsley. Mr. Powell states that, in his capacity
as Chief of Support, any ~ctivif; undertaken to support
Mr. Hunt's assignment to~ was undertaken second
and thirdhand on receipt of ins ructions from Mr. Kingsley's
office. He further stated that he was never briefed on
the purpose of Mr. Hunt's mission and could add little in
terms of speculation. Mr. Powell recommended that Mr.
Edward Ryan, who was then Deputy Chief of Western European
ivision, be cont,ed. Mr. Powell cso suggestlthat
C be interviewed. as the
xecutive Secreta y in Western Europ ~n Divis~ n uring th;
time that Mr. Hunt's c~tract1ras written and _j
subsequentlt'served in 1 ....Jherself. Mr. P ell under-
stands that . fis currently assigned to the
office of t e Chief, Eu~pean Division.
Lawrence J. Howe
3. Mr. Rocca was tnoroughiy candid and ~ooperative

during the course of this interview. He was unable to
suggest alternate means of attempting to determine if
any official Agency sponsorship of Mr. Hunt did in fact
exist. Mr. Rocca did venture the opinion that he felt
that in all probability an official acquiescence on the
part of senior officials might have been involved rather
than an official sponsorship. It was agreed by all in
this discussion that the nature of any informal support
given to Mr. Hunt would be far more difficult to define
in the absence of any formalized agreements.

5. A review of all of the travel vouche~ on record
for Mr. Hunt during this period also failed to identify
a project. In addition to the PCS and return vouchers,
two other accountings are on record. One ~oun~g
covered a trip by the entire Hunt family t
the renew~ of ) .as." A second voucher co
trip from
made by Mh- Hun
o Washington with return t
rom 5 January to 8 January
tel _.J"for
a T~
66. e
voucher states in the space provided for the citation of
the travel order number - "no travel order." The account-
ing was approved and signed by Mr. Thomas Karamessines,
then Deputy Director for Plans. No justification or
statement of purpose for this TDY was given on the account-
ing.
6. Mr. Yale determined that further review of possible
sources or identification of .operational funding was in
order. Mr. Yale gave instructions that the entire 1442
advance account of Mr. Hunt be reviewed for other possible
channels of funding outside of the New York Chase account.
After discussion, it was agreed that particular attention
be taken to any items connected with publishing or book
royalties. Mr. Yale noted that the royalty offset waiver
provision ammended to Mr. Hunt's contract was, in his ex-
perience, somewhat unusual.
7. Mr. Yale was informed by the undersigned of the
intention to interview Mr. Edward Ryan, curre~ly C:Ef,
Division D, who was at the time of Mr. Hunt's ~ assign-
ment, Deputy Chief of the Western Hemisphere D1visi n. Mr.
Yale suggested that Mr. Davis Powell also be interviewed.
The undersigned informed Mr. Yale that this had been done
and briefed Mr . Yale on the generally negative results of
the interview. Mr . .Yale then recommended that Mr. Sam
Halpern be interviewed. Mr. Yale noted that Mr. Halpern
had been an assistant to Mr. Desmond Fitzgerald when the
latter was Chief, Western Hemisphere Division and had ac-
companied Mr. Fitzgerald when he became Deputy Director for
Plans. Mr. Yale recalled that subsequent to Mr. Fitzgerald's
passing that Mr. Halpern remained on the staff and acted as
an Executive Officer for Mr. Thomas Karamessines. Mr. Yale
stated that from his experience, Mr. Karamessines would
have delegated all the arranging of "details" surrounding
an assignment such as Mr. Hunt's to Mr. Halpern. Mr. Yale
offered the parenthetical observation of his surprise at
what he interpreted to be reticence to date to interveww
Mr. Halpern.

activity developed in subsequent investigation. Mr. Yale
stated that any information in this area would greatly
facilitate the job of checking computerized financial
records.

ME~IORANDUr.l FOR: Legislative Counsel 12 JUL 1978

ATTENTION: Mr. Scott Breckinridge
FROM: Robert W. Gambino

Director of Security
SUBJECT: House Select Committee on

As~assinations Request (U)
.
1. (U/AIUO) Action Requested: None; for information
only.
2. (U/AIUO) Background: Reference is made to the

attached request from the House Select Committee on Assassi-
nations (HSCA) dated 20 June 1978 (OLC 78-2460). The HSCA
has asked for access to any and all reports and documents
concerning four individuals, t\-IO operations, and one company.
The HSCA has also a~ked for any and all reports or documents
concerning any French nationals or citizens involved in
plots or conspiracies to assassinate President Kennedy or
Fidel Castro (item #2) .
(U/AIUO) The Office of Security has material avail-

able for review regarding Valentin Bakulin (#4) and Ricardo
Morales-Navarrete (#8). One report (dated 15 September
1958, subject: John Joseph Bittner) and one memorandum
(dated 31 December 1963, subject: Lee Harvey Oswald -
Address Book), originating with the Federal Bureau of Investi-
gation, were located on Jaggers -Chiles- Stovall Corporati on
of Dallas, Texas ( # 7) . No record was found of Pierre Q\.;en
Diez De Ure (#3), Operation Proudfoot (#5), or Operation
Pathfinder (#6). On the basis of information furnished
regarding Jose Luis Romero (#1), this Office cannot locate
any identifiable information regarding him. Should the HSCA
secure additional information on Romero and desire the
Office of Security to search the name again, we shall do so.
The Office of Security cannot conduct a meaningful search
concerning item #2 without specific identities and identi-
fying information.
(C) Please contact 1\lr. Bruce Solie (red line 9126)

or Mr. John Sullivan (red line 18 93) when HSCA staffers
desire to review the above material.

Dear Mr. Cornwell:
; . ""'' ~ I
This office is legal counsel for E. Howard Hunt, Jr., and I

am sure you are aware of the recent correspondence from this
office concerning his requested app .~arance before your com-
mittee in public session forthwith. Last week this writer
was personally told by attorney Robert Genzman of your com-
mittee staff that he would respond to Mr. Hunt's requests and
demands immediately. I waited until today, and I just called
him; he notified me that the committee has no present plans
to call Mr. Hunt for public testimony at this time; however,
that the committee is interested in hearin g from Mr. Hunt in
executive session some time in October, 1978.
If the committee is interested in hearing from Hr. Hunt, why
are you going to deny him the public opp ortunity of clearing
his name? As you know, executive session testimony is never
reported, and while Mr. Hunt could claim some time in the
future that he said such and such in executive session , there
would be no proof thereof, nor the same readership that saw the
scurrilous, scandalous, defamatory and false allegations against
him that appeared in the print media recently ... having been ,
according to the article, leaked to these journalists by yo\lr
corrunittee staff.
For the fourth time, I am again asking that \ve be provided

with a copy of the so-called CIA 1966 secret memo regarding
Nr. Hunt, the name or names of those persons on your committee
\vho provided that information to members of the news media,
the response of ltt. Helms, Mr. Angleton, and Director Turner
to their knowledge of the contents of the so-called secret
memo, as well as the response of Mr. Marchetti and the two

C O ~VERSATION WITH NR. ANGLETON, JANUARY 1974
MR. ANGLETON If you could make a note there.

SDO Sure.
MR. ANGLETON According to Lyle Miller, Deputy Leg.
Counsel, he has a paper of Security's
on this fellow Hunt -----para. 15-----
Subj. Security file reflects that Subj .
has in the past been of operational
intereft to Mr. James Angl e ton, C/CI Staff/
DDP, in connection with an OP matter. On
19 June 19 72 Nr. Fred Hubbard, CI/Staff,
advised that he will provide info as to
the nature of Mr. Angleton's utilization
of Subj . That's the end of the quote.
SDO Yes Sir.

MR. ANGLETON As I told Mr. ---when I talked to Mr.
Osborn I didn't have this in hand and
he didn't recall it ----so-----it throws----
the fact that I talked to Hubbard who
denies all of this,------.
SDO Please hang on---
SDO Mr. Angleton, could you hang on to this----

he doesn't r emember it?
MR. ANGLETON No, he doesn't remember making such a

statement. According to him, I remember
him well -- Second, I've never met Hun~
in my life, and I'd appreciate it if Mr.
Osborn ----who's going up with the Director
today, find out who the author is of all
of this and brief him on all of this ---
that's it.
SDO Thank you, I will.

bower would be using on his South American tour. (The practice

in Presidential travels was for a group of Marine Corps helicopters
to be on hand ahead of time to transport the President from one
point to another wherever he was visiting.) It is not known
whether Hunt was actually hinting at bribing the Uruguayan
government in this manner.
When Eisenhower arrived in Montevideo in the first days of
March, Nardone conveyed Hunt's message to a totally astonished
Eisenhower. Accustomed as he was to traditional military and
White House staff systems, Eisenhower was taken aback by the
notion that a relatively low-level CIA agent had engaged the
President of a friendly country to speak on his behalf. That same
evening, Eisenhower mentioned the incident to the American
r Ambassador, Robert F. Woodward. He did so with a sense of
incredulity, but, at the same time, he made it clear to Woodward
that he did not propose to get invol ved in CIA's staffing problems
and that he would ignore the Uruguayan President's request.
r Shortly thereafter, word came from Washington for Hunt to re-
turn home as ordered. A new CIA station chief was about to
s arrive in Montevideo.
Hunt has his own version of the events that led to his departure
from Montevideo. As he tells it in his book, "In March 1960 I
1-
was having coffee with the newly elected president of the country
:1 to which I was assigned, when a [CIA] station officer was
t, admitted. He told me that an urgent cable was waiting for me at
d the American embassy, so I left and returned to my office. The
0 cable said I was wanted at Headqua1ters the following day to
r discuss a priority assignment, and it was signed jointly by Richard
i- Bissell, Chief of CIA's Clandestine Services, and his first assistant,
1-
Tracy Barnes."
h One thing that Hunt omitted to relate in his account was that at
J the same time he was apparently seeking Nardone's help, h e was
secretly organizing a plot to overthrow the Uruguayan government.
State D epartment officials say that Hunt considered Nardone to be

HEADLINE: Hans V. Tofte, 76, Dies;

Ex-CIA Officer in Far East
BYLINE: Richard Pearson, Washington Post Staff Writer
BODY:
Hans v. Tofte, 76, a distinguished intelligence officer who had a colorful
career that lasted more than 20 years before he was forced to retire from the
central Intelligence Agency in 1966, died Aug. 24 in Gilbertsville, N.Y. He
lived in Gilbertsville.
Mr. Tofte worked in the anti-Nazi underground in his native Denmark in the
early days of World War II. Later in the war, he served in the armies and
intelligence services of Britain and the United States, and behind enemy lines

in Europe and the Far East. During the Korean War, he was a leading CIA officer
in the Far East, organizing covert operations against the Chinese communists and
setting up "evasion and escape" routes for downed Allied fliers inside Korea.
He continued to serve in the CIA until he was dismissed because of a dispute
over his use of classified agency documents. Mr. Tofte, whose job involved
training covert agents, had taken government documents to his Washington home
where he was writing an agency textbook.
The events leading to his leaving the CIA began when he listed the basement
apartment of his home with a Washington realtor, who showed the property to a
'
couple recently transferred to the washinqton area. The husband was a CIA
employe who somehow wandered into Mr. Tofte's upstairs study where he discovered
a stack of classified CIA documents.
After informinq the aqency of the documents, the man returned to Mr. Tofte's
home with another aqency employe and confiscated the material. Althouqh it was
never suggested that any of the material left Mr. Tofte's hands, his having the
material at home was apparently in violation of aqency rules. Mr. Tofte
maintained that many hiqh-level officials took classifed documents home to work
on and indicated to some reporters that he was dismissed because of unpopular
views he had developed reqardinq some CIA personnel and operations policies.

Mr. Tofte was a native of Copenhagen and a 1929 qraduate of Holbaek Colleqe.
He beqan workinq for the East Asiatic co., a Danish shippinq concern, while
still a teen-aqer. At the aqe of 19, he was sent to China by the company for
language traininq. He learned Japanese, Russian and Chinese. He also spoke
English, German and Danish. He was working in the Far East when Denmark was
occupied by German forces.
After returninq to Denmark, he became active in the underqround before

fleeinq the country by German plane to Spain. He traveled to New York, where he
joined the British secret Intelliqence Service. That organization got him a
commission as a British Army brevet major and sent him to the Far East. He later
transferred to the American Office of strategic Services.
He worked for the Allied cause first in Singapore, then in Burma, where he
helped organize supply lines to China and worked with the famed Orde Wingate.
Later in the war, he went to Yuqoslavia where he organized clandestine supply
runs in small vessels to the Yuqoslav partisans. He also was stationed in cairo
and parachuted behind enemy lines into Germany. After the war, he remained in
the u.s. Army reserves and worked in the furniture business in Iowa and as an
airline representative in Denmark.
(c) 1987 The washington Post, August 30, 1987
He was recalled to active duty as a lieutenant colonel during the Korean war
and was sent to Japan. He helped expand agency operations in the Far East during
that war. In addition to organizing pilot rescue lines, he helped set up
querrilla operations in areas controlled by the communist forces and directed
highly successful propaqanda programs against the Soviet Union in Japan.
He also organized the 1951 hijacking of a Norwegian ship, carrying a huge

shipment of medical supplies from India to Communist China. Writer Joseph c.
Goulden later reported that Mr. Tofte persuaded the Chinese nationalists to stop
the ship on the high seas and confiscate the cargo (which the nationalists
kept), allowing the ship to proceed.
After the Korean War, Mr. Tofte remained with the CIA and worked with it in
Latin America. He also had been a special assistant to former director of
central intelligence Gen. Walter Bedell Smith.
survivors include a son, of Copenhagen, and a grandchild.

MHIORANDUM FOR: Files

FROM
SUBJECT
1. ln connection with the current Senate Select Committee

(SSC) investigation of the Agency, certain Office of Security
files have been made available throug~for revie~ by sse
Staff members under established procedures.
2. Prior to revie~ of a security file by an sse Staff
member, certain papers were placed in a sealed envelope
(envelopes) in the particular file and were not reviewed by
the SSC S:aff member. The envelopes may be opened by any
Office of Security personnel, but until further notice the
papers contained in each envelope must be replaced in the proper

a copy of a document (or documents) was not requested or

l.fE!K>RANDUl.! FOR: OSE
SUBJECT: Captain Eugene Karp~,USN, deceased
1. During 1948-1949 I served in Europe as an official of the

Economic Cooperation Administration, ranking as Attach' of the Ameri-
can Embassy, Paris.
2. During various periods of temporary duty in Vienna (August-

October, 1948) I came to know Captain Karpe socially. He came to
Vienna frequently on week ends from his Bucharest post, staying, like
myself, at the Bristol Hotel.
3. On at least two occasions he !lew with me in Gen. Keyes' air-

craft from Vienna to Paris, and I had the distinct impression that he
wanted to spend as little time as possible in Bucharest because of the
annoying and constant surveillance of secret police.
I;. on one occasion, returning unexpectedly to Vienna, I encount-

ered Capt. Karpe at the Brietol, and asked him why be was again in
Vienna. He replied tha~ there had been a series of incidents iD Buchar-
est involving the domestic servants of Embassy personnel (shadowing,
interrogations, etc.), and that I could not imagine how rigorous was
- the life there for Americans. He added jokingly that he could not even
visit a urinal in Bucharest without being accompanied by s~cret police.
5. At no time did Captain Karpe appear despondent; rather he im-

pressed me as a conscientious officer who was undergoing tremendoue
hardships, but sought relaxation from surveillance at every legitimate
-
'
opparturu.ty. _
6.
-
In October, 1949 I encountered Capt. Karpe in the Army & Navy
Club in Washington, and asked him if his Bucharest assignment had termi-
- nated.. His answe~was r~ther vague, and my total impression was that he
felt I was lucky to be out of Europe, and that he was not anxious to re-
turn to Rumania.
: ~~-'-
?. Our association was more than casual, for we had mutual friends
in the Navy; one of his classmates, in fact, having been a fellow offi~er
of mine.
,.
e
8. Although I knew }.(r. and llrs. ~obert Vogeler socially in Vienna,
I was not aware that Captain Karpe knew them, as later events indicate.

9 June .l973
SUBJECT: Pos.sible Additional Agency Support Furnished Howard Hunt
1. W~ have reported earli~r an out-of-channel request by

Howard Hunt for a name trace in December 1971 on a Costa Rican.
This was put back in channels by forwarding the name trace report
to Peter Jessup, who then held the position of senior Agency officer
with the NSC Staff in EOB. ....
. 2.
Jessup has submitted a memorandum dated 31 May 1973
(rec~ived in 0/IG on 6 June) stating that Howard Hunt,
"submitted -various names for Headquarters traces

of certain Latin Americans, not in a sealed envelope.
This wa~ h<\1lled orally and by telephone I advised the
chief of the appropriate division that they were being
forwarded and to consult with the DDP about the
propriety of re~ponding. I also telephoned the DDP.
I then wrote my own memo to General HAIG calling
his attention to the fact that an individual--! named
HUNT--was tracing foreign nationals without reference .......
8
to the NSC Staff. " 0
<
~
Haig is reported by Jessup as returning the memorandum with .the
word "thanks" noted on its face.
~
..._,
<X)
~
N
10
3. We have spoken with Rob Roy Ratliffe, Jessup's successor ~
with the NSC S taff, who states (in conversations on 6 and 7 June) 0 A
~
that it was not customar>' for Jessup to keep records of this sort ..:I
of transaction, and that a search of the file s does not disclose a ~
copy of the memorandum to General Haig. Mrs. Evelyn De Pue
(Jessup's secretary at the time and now Ratliffe's) spoke with Mrs.
( .Jat Headquarters, who reporte d a memorandum from
Chief, WH Division, in December 1971 forwarding to Jessup a
name trace on a Costa Rican (the one noted above) for Hunt. No
o th e r such records were found.

4. Jessup is now on TDY at H eadquarters and was interviewed

(7 June by telephone and 8 June in person). He first recalled that
"shortly after" Hunt was appointed to the White House--he thinks
before the plumber unit was formed, although this is ex post facto
reconstruction--Hunt made a request for name traces on Latin
Arne ricans. He thinks this involved Guatemalans and Costa Ricans.
I pointed out that Hunt's White House appo~trnent was 6 July 1971.
As Jessup discussed it he placed the time the last couple of months
of 1971 or the first month of 1972. He cannot recall how many name
traces were involved, but is certain that the total was more than
one--"just a few; five, three, two or four. 11 He enclosed Hunt's
request in an env elope and forwarded it with a note that someone
had best check with Tom Karamessines as Hunt was no longe r an
Agency employee. Jessup says he didn't know what Hunt was doing
or what he had in mind, and was concerned that Hunt might make
Agency Secret name trace material available to outsiders. Jessup's
office routinely handled a low volume of name trace reque sts from the
NSC Staff, but always in such instances he knew who it was for and how
it was to be used.
... . . 5. Jessup said that his office had little other contact with Hunt .
He saw him in the elevator in EOB once or twice, but never had
occasion to discuss business matters. Once someone phoned asking
for Hunt's telephone extension (which was difficult to get, as the
White House switchboard did not give out numbers freely). Out of
curiosity he also got Hunt's room nwnber and wandered down (he
recalls it as Room 106 EOB) where h e found a sign on the door
saying "Plumber, " very :nuch as it might have said "Janitor." He
attached no significance to it at the time, the term "Humber" meaning
nothing to him.
6. On one occasion Jessup took his daughter to Blues Alley, and

saw Hunt there with some well-to-do Californians . He thought Hunt
had some association with the place as a public relations man, although
he thinks it would have to be a very small account. I told him of Hlillt' s
reported interest in jazz, which was news to Jessup. To forestall
Hunt's thinking that he (Jessup) might be playing around with teenagers
he took his daughter over to intr.oduce her. His daughter felt that
.:..
H unt was a man very pleased with himself. Jes sup had no other ,.,~
rec ollections. ~

7. Mr. Brae (then Chief~ \VH Division) has no recollection of any

name traces handled for Hunt other than the one forwarded over his
(Brae'~) name on 13 December 1971. He recalls discussing that with
his deputy, Jim Flannery. He has discussed this with Flannery, who
has checked the records of WH and has found no other such records.
At this time it seems unlikely that we will answer the questions this
presents. Was Hunt's out-of-channel request (which WH put back in
channel) the one Jessup recalls, with embellislunents? Or did Hunt
make additional requests, through channels, that were not serviced?
We have the one recorded name trace, on a Costa Rican, and no others.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Secretary, CIA Management Committee
SUBJECT : Addend= to Chronologies on "Watergate"
L On 8 December 1971 Mr. Howard Hunt requested a CIA employee

known to him per-sonally,(. J
to assist in a na':ne
trace on a Costa Rican citizen, Jorge GONZALEZ Marten, who claimed
i:
to be head of the Costa Rican National Independent Party. On 13 December
r.:;
..
1971 the report was forwarded to Peter Jessup, Senior Staff Officer,
National Security Council, from the Chief, WH Division. Gonzalez was
.. '
reported to be a millionaire, with various holdings in Costa Rica, and an
unidentified connection with IBM. He had lived in the U.S. for a number
of years and seems to have formed his party in December 1971.
2.. The genesis of the requested name trace is not known, and ""'~
subsequent use of the inforznation is not known. ~a

su~ECT: John F. Kennedy Assassination Matter
FACTS
By letter to the Attorney General, dated December 3 0 ,

1976, the Internal Revenue Service provided the f o llo wi ng
informatio n: On De cember 9 , 1976, IRS Ag ent
stationed in Dallas, Texas, was visited by two informa nts who
prov ided him wi th a mechanical reproduction of a handwritten
letter which was allegedly from Lee Harvey Oswald to Nelson
Bunker Hunt. The letter, dated November 8, 1963, is addressed
only to "Mr. Hunt" and is signed "Lee Harvey Oswald." It
states in its entirety as follows:
I would like information concerning my

position.
I am asking only for information and

suggesting that we discuss the matter fully
before a ny steps are taken by me or anyone
else.
The informants indicated that the letter, or a copy the r eo f,

had previously been supplied to the FBI but that appare ntly
no action was t aken.
In 1971 the same agent received information from t wo

informants indicating that Nelson Bunker Hunt, son o f H. L .
Hunt, had organized a "kill squad" which was designe d "to
e liminate the world of certain liberal leaders." One Eug e ne
Braden was allegedly connected with this activity. According
to the informants, both Braden and Jack Ruby were in Bunker
Hunt's office on the day before the assassination. Further,
i t is purported that immediately after the shooting deputies
of the Dallas County Sheriff's Department spotted Bra d e n
Bu;; U.S. Saving! Bo11d1 R(gularly on the Payroll Saving! Plan

REPRODUCED AT THE

exiting the building immediately across the street from the

Texas Book Depository. Upon being detained by the deputies,
Braden is alleged to have used a false name to identify
himself.
On January 6, 1977, the Attorney General's office

forwarded the information supplied by IRS to the FBI for
appropriate action. The Bureau's ensuing investigation
has had three primary areas of focus: (1) the purported
Oswald letter; (2) the alleged receipt of the Oswald letter
and ensuing inaction by the FBI at some time prior to
' and (3) the suggested assassination conspiracy
December 1976;
between Bunker Hunt, Braden, and Ruby.
A. The Oswald Letter
The copy of the purported Oswald letter supplied by

IRS has been subjected by the Bureau to handwriting analysis .
The results are inconclusive. The writing is sufficiently
similar to known samples of Oswald's handwriting that Bureau
experts cannot eliminate the possibility that the letter is
genuine. Neither can they say definitely that it is Oswald's
writingo They do, however, note that the "e" in "Harvey"
which is present in known samples of Oswald's signature appears
absent from the signature on the questioned document. More
specific conclusions cannot be drawn in the absence of the
original document .
The Bureau points out that numerous examples of Oswald's

handwriting are available for public scrutiny among the
documents published by the Warren Commission. It is extremely
even and simple in sytle, making it readily subject to
imitation. A tracing or other form of imitation can only
be ruled out through examination of the pen pressure on the
original document.
In an effort to uncover further information surrounding

the December 1976 production of a copy of the Oswald l etter,
FBI agents initially interviewed IRS Agent Mr.
advised that the informants who supplied him with the p urported
Oswald letter were and

money.
The ensuing FBI investigation into the purported Oswald

letter revealed that the first person known to be in possession
of it was Penn Jones, the retired editor of the Midlothian
News, Midlothian, Texas. He is the author of Forgive My Grief,
an expose which concludes that President Kennedy was killed by
two gunmen who fired a total of 18 s hots .
Jones advised the Bureau that in August 1975, he received

through the mail a copy of the purported Oswald letter and an
accompanying note in Spanish. The envelope in which he claims
to have received the correspondence contains an uncancelled
Mexican stamp and bears no postmark. The return address
portion of the envelope reads as follows :
p. s.
Insurgentes Sur No. 309
Mexico, D. F.
Mexico
The cover note, typed in Spanish, is signed "P.S." It indicate s

that its writer supplied the letter to the FBI in late 1974
believing that it might be relevant to the 1963 assassination.
However , when no action was taken by the Bureau, the writer
concluded that he had'' . . reason to believe that the worst
may happen to me and accordingly must hide for a prudent
period of time " [translation].
Jones further advised the Bureau that he responded by

writing "P.S." at the address shown on the envelope. When he
received no reply, he ceased to put much faith in the Oswald
letter and passed it on to Earl Golz, a reporter for the
Dallas Morning News . FBI investigation has revealed that
the return address on the purported l etter to Jones is a
postal box for "The Picadilly," a hotel for transients in
Mexico City, Mexico. None of the names of the persons living
at that hotel during the pertinent period contain the initials
"P.S . " Further , a check of those names against Bureau indices
produced no relevant information.

Earl Golz is known for his newspaper stories espousing

conspiracy theories of the Kennedy assassination. He con-
firmed that he received a copy of the Oswald letter from
Penn Jones. Golz, in turn, passed a copy of the letter on
to \ , who he was seeking to develop as a source for
exposes he was preparing on the Hunt empire.
B. The FBI's Alleged Receipt of the Oswald Letter
The note in Spanish under which the purported Oswald

letter was forwarded to Penn Jones is dated August 13, 1975.
It states that "(t]owards the end of last year, I remitted
a letter from Lee Oswald to Mr. Kelley, Director of the FBI ."
This places the time when the letter was allegedly supplied
to the FBI as late 1974. Further, even assuming a mistaken
time reference by the author of the cover letter, the fact
that Clarence Kelley became Director of the Bureau in the
summer of 1973 sets the outside bounds of the time period
during which the letter could have been supplied as July 1973
to August 1975.
After a c h eck of all appropriate personnel and files,

the Bureau reports that it has no record or other indication
of receiving Oswald's purported letter to Hunt. As part of
its inquiry, FBI agents interviewed the now retired docume nts
analyst who would have been responsible for the handling of
such a document had it been received between July 1973 a nd
August 1975. He has no recollection of the Oswald letter
and states the belief that he would remember such a letter
had he received it.
C. Suggested Assassination Conspiracy Between Nelson Bunker

Hunt, Eugene Braden, and Jack Ruby
The final area of FBI inquiry has centered on information

provided to IRS agent ' in 1971 to the effect that Nelson
Bunker Hunt had organized a "kill squad" to rid the world of
liberal leaders. Again, the informants were and
According to this allegation, Eugene Braden and
Jack Ruby were possible conspirators in a plot to kill
President Kennedy. It is alleged that Braden and Ruby v isited
Bunker Hunt's office on November 21, 1963, the day prior to
the assassination , and that Braden was in the area of the
Texas Book Depository at the time of the incident.

A review of investigative materials compiled by the

FBI in its initial investigation of the Kennedy assassination
reveals that Jack Ruby was interviewed in December 1963.
His statement of his whereabouts on the day prior to the
assassination indicates that he did not visit the Hunt
offices. A copy of this interview was published by the
Warren Commission as Exhibit No. 2 in Volume 20, page 41.
His female companion during a portion of that day, Connie
Trammel, was interviewed by the Bureau in December 1963
and corroborated Ruby's statement. Additionally, Ruby under-
went a polygraph examination on the Kennedy assassination
matter at the request of the Warren Commission. He showed
no sign of deception in stating that he h ad no knowledge of
a conspiracy to kill the President. The details of this
examination are contained in materials published by the
Warren Commission.
Eugene Braden has recently been interviewed by the FBI.

He explained his presence in Dallas at the time of the
assassination as follows: On November 21, 1963, he traveled
to Dallas on business. Since he had recently been paroled
from federal prison (he had been convicted of interstate
transportation of stolen property), he was required to contact
a probation officer upon arriving in Dallas and before leaving.
When he checked in with U. S. Probation Officer
~~ on November 21st, Braden advised him that he might
be talking with the Hunts concerning oil producing property
in Louisiana. Braden was involved with such property together
with Roger Bauman and Morgan Brown. He states that his reason
~~ for mentioning the Hunts to was that Brown claimed
to know the Hunt family and had previously raised the possi-
bility of setting up a meeting with them. Braden advises,
however, that no such meeting occurred. He further states
that he has never been in the Hunts' offices and ha s never
met the Hunts or Jack Ruby.
At the conclusion of his business on November 22d, Braden

~~ walked to the Federal Building to check out with
He was still about a block from that building when the Kennedy
motorcade passed. He proceeded to the Federal Building where
bt~ he met for approximately 15 minutes with At the
conclusion of that meeting he walked for 15 or 20 minutes
whereupon he arrived in the vicinity of the Texas Book Depository
which was then being surrounded by police officers. When he

heard people in the crowd say that the President had been
shot, he entered a nearby building in an unsuccessful attempt
to telephone his family to tell them what was happening.
As Braden exited the building, an elevator operator pointed
him out to deputy sheriffs as being a person not previously
seen in the building. He was detained and subsequently inter-
viewed and released . The written record of the statement
which he provided to Sheriffs Department personnel on
November 22 , 1963, is consistent with the information he
recently provided the FBI .
'
All egations of Braden ' s involvement in the Kennedv
assassination do not originate with IRS informants\
and Several books espousing conspiracy theories
of the assassination have suggested that Braden was a participant
(e . g. , A Legacy of Doubt by Peter Noyes , and The Killing of JFK
by Donald Freed ) Part of the support for past allegations
against Braden has been that he used an assumed name during
his detention by the Dallas County Deputy Sheriffs. An FBI
review of the Sheriff ' s Department interview records reveals
that Braden provided h is correct name. Alth ough cooperative
in his recent interview with FBI agents, Braden did refuse
to submit to a polygraph examination .
recently advised the Bu reau t hat H. L . Hunt

once told him that he was concerned that Nelson Bunker Hunt
might carry out some of his violent views on how to deal with
~~ world communist leaders such as Castro. From this,
concluded that the senior Hunt was concerned that Nelson
Bunker Hunt might become involved in some type of "kill
'p"}c\ squad." The latter term is 's . He does not recall
the Hunts ever using such terminology .
In a recent interview of Nelson Bunker Hunt concerning

the hit squad theory and the purported Oswal d letter, Mr. Hunt
professed no recollection of ever meeting Braden and stated
that he knew nothing about a hit squad . He also denied
receiving the purported Oswald letter of November 8 , 1963 .
Although he was not advised the identity of the persons who
had made the allegations leading to the interview ~ Hunt
indicated that he knew it was He stated that
had sto l en nine million dollars from a Hunt company
and that he probably forged the Oswald letter since he had
been known to forge documents concerning H. L . Hunt .

DISCUSSION
A. Assessing the Need for Additional Investigation
At this point the FBI believes that it has exhausted

all logical leads in its inquiry into the allegations made to
IRS Agent by and \ It considers
the matter closed unless further investigation is requested
by the Department. The determination as to the need for
additional investigation appears to turn on two considerations:
(1) the credehce to be given the instant allegations in light
of evidence developed to date; and (?) the importance of
proving or disproving to the fullest extent reasonable the
allegations and theories that periodically are circulated
concerning this tragedy which has attracted such lasting
national attention.
1. The Oswald Letter
The purported Oswald letter and related allegation that

the FBI failed to act after receiving a copy of it find support
solely in the fact that the letter is written in a handwriting
that could be Oswald'so Conversely, the letter could well
be a forgery, a pos sibility which is supported by the apparent
omission of the letter "e" from the first name in Oswald 's
signature. All surrounding circumstances detract from a
conclusion th at the document is genuine .
The letter first carne to light almost 12 years after the

assassination. Only a copy was supplied; no one can be
located who can attest to having seen the original lette r.
The first copy to come to light was purportedly transmitted
by mail from Mexico yet its envelope bears none of the indicia
of having been processed by a postal system . The letter was
transmitted under a cover l etter which contained only initials
to identify its originator . The designated return address
is a hotel for transients which had no registered guest with
the a ppropriate initials during the period when the letter
purports to have been mailed. Penn Jones allegedly attempted
without success to communicate with the originator of the letter .
Independent assessments of the validity of the Oswald

letter can be gleaned from the actions of Penn Jones and Earl
Golz . Both are detractors of the Warren Commission' s view
r; h - I - b a.t va
(J.DV Jl.!ll') 9ZS-ZOt ';::;le=o.... VHVN

of the incident. Both have espoused the theory that the

crime was the product of a conspiracy . Yet, neither of these
men thought enough of the letter to make use of it. They
simply passed it on without making any public disclosure. ~
Jones specifically advised the FBI that he does not put much
faith in the letter.
Another well known advocate of the conspiracy theory of

the assassination, Harold Weisberg, has , according to the
Bureau, been quoted in published reports as stating that he
puts no stock in the letter. The Senate Select Committee on
Intelligence was fully apprised of this matter by the Depart-
ment in January . After an initial inquiry, it has expressed
no serious continuing interest . The House Select Committee on
Assassinations is also aware of the letter and has not, to
date, made an issue of it.
As concluded by the Bureau , all reasonable leads related

to the Oswald letter appear to have been exhausted. Accord-
ingly, even taking into account the special concerns surrounding
the John F . Kennedy assassination matter , there appears to be
no basis for additional investigation .
2. Conspiracy Between Nelson Bunker Hunt, Eugene Braden,

and Jack Ruby
The allegation that Hunt , Braden , and Ruby conspired

to kill Pre sident Kennedy is simply a variation of an old
theory on the ass a ssination which has frequently been
asserted by those who believe there was a conspiracy. It
* Earl Golz belatedly published an article about the letter

after he was interviewed by the Bureau. However, the basis
of his article was not the letter itself but rather the
fact that the FBI was conducting an investigation concerning
i t.

is fueled somewhat by the Hunt family's well documented dis-

like for the Kennedy family and Braden's unusual life style.~
The theory is sufficiently well known that IRS agent ~1{

, who has long served in Dallas and is well acquainted
with stories about the assassination, thought nothing of
the information supplied him in 1971 on the purported Hunt-
Braden-Ruby conspiracy. He simply filed his notes of the l
information provided by and\ . It wa s only b1a
after the same two informants provided him with the purported
Oswald letter
'-
in December 1976 that he began to attach any
significance to their previous information and called it to
the attention of his superiors.
In the context of normal criminal investigations , the

instant allegation does not appear to merit additional inquiry.
There is no substantial evidence to support the allegation.
Further, even if it were proved, there is no apparent
basis for federal prosecution. The Presidential assassination
statute (18 u.s.c. 1751) was not enacted until 1965. Pros-
ecution under the lesser federal statutes which would h ave
been violated by a conspiracy to assassinate President
Kennedy- conspiracy to violate civil rights (18 U.S.C. 241)
a nd conspiracy to injure an officer of the United States
. (18 U.S.C. 372 ) is barred by the statute of limitations .
There are , h owever , two pos s ible investigat i ve ste p s

which bear mentioning in deference to the high level of
public concern which still exists over the assassination.
a. Eliciting Further Documents from IRS
We can renew our efforts to obtain IRS records per-

taining to the 1 97 1 hit squad allegation so that we can
assure ourselves that IRS has overlooked nothing of relevance
in relaying the allegations of and \ b~
to us. To date we have received detailed information from
~ If one believes his detractors, Braden is inclined toward

shaky business ventures. He i s reported to have a propensity
for marrying older women of means only to get l ost with their
funds shortly after matrimony, a practice which h as caused
him some l egal difficulty.

b~ agent on this matter. However, the Department's

January request for the production of relevant IRS records
has not yet been fully honore d. ~
~ Ironically, Departmental attorneys may possess in their

files the very records we have sought . During the motion
stage of the Hunt wiretapping case, the trial judge ordered
Departmental attorneys Guy Goodwin and David Buvinger to
obtain and examine for Brady and Jencks material IRS records
of information provided by and The
'
attorneys, in turn, obtained the relevant materials from
IRS based on their request that such be provided to them
for the purpose of compliance with the judge's order.
Before the records were returned, Mr. Goodwin had a large
portion of them photostated for possible reference later
in the case. Those copies still remain in Mr. Goodwin's
files. He has a hazy recollection that they contain a para-
graph or two concerning hit squads.
Regulations promulgated by IRS pursuant to the Tax

Reform Act of 1976 permit the continued use of previously
disclosed IRS materials for any purpose authorized by
26 U.S.C. 6103 prior to its 1976 amendment . Federal
Register , Vol. 42, No. 16, p. 4138 (Jan. 25, 1977). One
such authorized use of disclosed records was for investi-
gative purposes . 26 C.F.R. 301.6103(a) - l(a) (3) (i).
Accordingly , unless IRS limited the u se which could be made
of the materials in question at the time of disclosure ,
they can now be used by the Department and provided to the
FBI for review. Although Goodwin and Buvinger do not recall
any stated limitation by IRS on use of the documents, they
are in agreement that their request for release was strictly
limited to compl iance with the judge's order. Accordingly,
they agree that the most reasonable interpretation i s that
the documents were released for a limited purpose and cannot,
therefore, be redisclosed. Additionally, Mr. Goodwin is
uncertain as to his authority for having made a copy of the
documents. In view of these factors , it appears inappro-
priate that the Department use the previously obtained records
in the instant investigation.

Internal Revenue agreed to review its records and to

provide us with those which are not within the disclosure
constraints of the Tax Reform Act of 1976. To the extent
that certain relevant records could not be released without
an "(i) (2)" letter (26 U .S . C. 6103 (i) (2)) , IRS agreed to
advise us. So far, the Service has provided the Bureau
with a total of 16 pages of material , all of which are from
the manuscript of an unpublished book by Rothermel on the
Hunts. The material relates to the Hunts' dislike of the
Kennedys but is not otherwise probative. IRS has not pro-
vided any of ' its internal reports by of material
furnished by and Neither has it advised
d efinitely that there is any material which could be made
avai lable unde r (i) (2). Calls to IRS on this matter h ave
resulted in courteous but repeated statements that the
matter will have to be checked further. The constraints of
the Tax Reform Act of 1976 appear to make IRS reluctant to
reach a decision. It is doubtful that we will ever receive
any further material as things presently stand.
The Service has suggested that disclosure could b e

spurred by the Department's providing an (i) (2) letter, thus
relieving them of having to decide if specific records fall
within the Tax Reform Act. The providing of such a letter
is not, however, without problems. Under (i) (2) the Depart-
ment is required to designate the specific criminal statute
under which it is conducting an investigation which may r esul t
in an administrative or judicial proceed ing . As discussed
above, there appears to be no federal statute under which a
prosecution could now be brought against persons who might
have conspired to kill President Kennedy . Accordingly , it
appears that the (i) (2) letter would need to be based on
18 U.S.Co 1001, false official statements . ~
~While the Fraud Section policy generally precludes

prosecution under 18 u.s .c. 1001 of persons who respo nd
untruthfully to investigative inquiries, it does authorize
prosecution for false "volunteered reports ," i . e . , false
r eports in the fir st instance which generate investigations .

It is quite possible that the Oswald letter is a ~

hoax . Nelson Bunker Hunt suspects \ of being respon- ~
sible and Departmental attorneys connected with the Hunt
wiretapping prosecution do not discount that possibility.
Further, the i nformation provided to IRS in 1971 may well
have been fab r icat ed for the purpose of furthering the ~~
vendetta against the Hunts. While the ~
1971 incident is now beyond the statute of limitations , the
two informants have had a continuing pattern of supplying
Boren with information on the Hunts . Accordingly, the argument
exists that the 1971 incident could still be reached in a
prosecution for an ongoing conspiracy to provide false infor-
mation.
While the re is arguably sufficient legal basis for the

submission of an (i) (2) letter predicated on 18 U.S . C . 1001,
we doubt the wisdom of p u rsuing such a course . The need for
obtaining such IRS documents seems mooted by the fact that , , 1
the Bureau h as now interviewed both \ and' ~~
and has checked out the leads obtained therefrom . The two
men provided little relevant information and nothing of value
that was verifiable . In view of their strong feelings against
the Hunts, it is most unlik e ly that they would have withheld
from the Bureau any valid informa tion that they have heretofore
provided IRS agent I__ Accordingly , while we have prepared b~
an (i) ( 2) letter for your consideration (attached), we
recommend against its submission to IRS on the grounds that
it is now unnecessary and it would leave us open to criticism
that we based our discovery request on a contrived theory.
b. Conducting an Interview of U. S . Probation

Officer Roger C . Carroll
Eugene Braden has advised the Bureau that he was

approximately o ne block from the Federal Building when the
Kennedy motorcade passed and that immediately thereafter he
entered that building and met with probation officer
If this is verified by -- it tends to remove Braden
from the area of the Texas Book Depository at the time of
the shooting .

~ spiracy theory. Should \ verify Braden's statement, it
would serve as an additional factor discrediting the theory.

STATEMENT BY RICHARD M. BISSELL, JR. TO ~ ryy\_OJ'-<,f.-/O q'{
FREDERICK D. BARON ON FEBRUARY 6, 1976 (d ~)
1. I do not recall a written recommendation from E . Howard
':-.. Hunt, Jr. for the assassination of Fidel Castro. Frederick Baron,
I
j ,..._
(V)
counsel to the Senate Select Committee, read to me the following
I (V)
', N
:' 0p:: excerpt from Give Us This Day by Howard Hunt (New York, 1973,
1-.J
~ < pp . 38-39):
u
(/)
. ::r:
' ... When it came to recommendations re-
..p
0
lated to the project, I listed four:
ri
u 1. Assassinate Castro before or
u coincident with the invasion (a task for
.. ......Q)
Cuban patriots) . .. .
.-l
u
0 Barnes and Bissell read my report,
- ~
pondered the recommendations and said that
~
. ....., it would weigh in the final planning. (As
the months wore on I was to ask Barnes re-
{l ~ peatedly about action on my principal
.'.I uo
' J recommendation only to be told it was "in
;
'
I Q) the hands of a special group." So far as

~
<
!I ()p I have been able to determine no coherent
. Q)
)..< plan was ever developed within CIA to
' Q)
4-1 assassinate Castro, though it was the
~-. Q)
heart's desire of many exile groups.)
~ Mr. Baron als.o represente_d that at several points in his testimony,

Howard Hunt referred to me as the person who told him that his
assassination recommendation was "in the hands of a special group . "
The excerpt from Hunt's book and the representation about his testi-
mony do not refresh my recollection. I do not recall any communi-
cation, written or oral, with Howard Hunt regarding assassination.
However, I do not dispute Mr. Hunt's testimony that I received such
a communication.
j s..
T. ,. -
. " '.~
2. In particular, I do not recall telling Howard Hunt or

anyone else that planning for the assassination of Castro was "in
the hands of a special group. " I can only speculate that I would
i.
have been referring to the operation of Sheffield Edwards and Jim

Mr . Prouty. The date was in either February or March of

primarily with what I wanted done , he said , well, I have a

I knew Howard Hunt, I had known him at least since the

Bay of Pigs program . But I knew in CIA practi ce you don ' t rec-

10 We talked business.There was absolutely no doubt in my

12 Mr. Madi g an. Did Hunt indicate a knowledge of Butter-

14 pression that both Bennett and Hunt knew him?
15 Mr . Prouty. Hunt I doubt said three words. And as we
16 left the door he said, this is my first week or my first two
1? weeks here, and frankly, I am new, and it will be my first
18 account if I . get the account.

5 Senator Baker. Colonel, did Bob Bennett say anything

7 Mr. Prouty . Not in that conteKt, no. That was not the
8 subject of our business.
9 Senator Baker. In any context?
10 Mr. Prouty . I don't think that the subject involving
11 CIA came up at all until I had lunch with Hunt.
12 Senator Baker. Before you get to the luncheon with
13 Hunt, I believe it is alleged that you said the Mullen
14 Company was a CIA proprietary front or cover, words to that
15 effect.
16 How did y ou know that if you did in fact know that?

6 Now, this was true of many aircraft companies, and this
7 was one of the reasons that the Air Force provided cover for
8 the AGency, so that they could, like the U-2 program, get it
9 done within a c ompany, and the company would think it was
10 Air Force, and it was really U-2, or where we would be pulling

3 Going back to the time that you said you knew him while he was
4 with the Agency, how would you categorize his position?
5 Mr. Prouty. All right, let me iell you something that
6 will help you rea lize that he is a very highly placed person .
7 But he was not highly placed like on the hierarchy scale, he
8 was highly placed by his connections.
9 I have a very close friend, and have had for many years,
10 who was also h i ghly placed in the Agency, who told me that .
11 Howard --
12 Mr. Liebe ngood. Are you talking about highly placed
13 by connections or by position?
14 Mr. Prouty. Position who told me that Howard Hunt
15 is the real author of Allen Dulles book called "The Craft of
16 Intelligence". And I believe this. I have no reason to
17 deny it because there is much in "The Craft of Intelligence"
18 that is written in the Howard Hunt style.
19 But Hunt was an intimate of Allen Dulles. Now, I .
20 don't mean intimate like ag'e level or social level, but I mean
21 intimate in his office, he had . access to him, ready access
22 to him. And I know this, political officers do -- and. a poli-

14 Mr. Liebe ngood. Vlouldyou d e fine for the Committee as

16 Mr.Prouty . Now, a political officer is the man who
17 makes contacts , or is contacted by people of other countries.
18 And then his role is to work with them in whatever the
19 Agency's interes ts are And generally he is pretty deeply
20 covered. So that least of all they don't know he is a CIA
21 man, and perhaps they don't even know whether he is
22 an American. It depends on how the job is set up. And some

PO BOX 2091

Dear A.J.,
After six months, the Liberty Lobby case arrived in Miami, but only
partially. Volumes 1, 2, 3 of 5, and volumes 1, 6, 8 of 12 were
missing. The clerk of the Southern District of Florida tells me
that the records center in Atlanta sent only box one of two. There
was a criminal case miss-filed in with the LL case. What a mess.
The court docket only indicates five depositions:
Carto .. Dec 7, 1991

DeRemer .... Dec 7, 1981
Kuzmuk ....... Dec 7, 1981
Turner ...... Dec 7, 1981
EH Hunt ...... Nov 4, 1981
Dunn ...... Dec 11, 1981
These depositions were from the first case.
The copy place did not indicate which items came from which file so
I have to verify that before I send the material on to you. I do
not yet know what will be in box two of the file, which was not
sent from Atlanta yet. (Court File numbers are in yellow]
Remit a check for the following.

Fee to order file ... $ 25.00
Copies (receipt enclosed) ... 193.46
Total ... 218.46
Postage ... free
This is not over yet. I will pursue getting the remainder of the
file, unless you tell me to forget about it.

Dear Sir:
This letter regards the Hunt v. Spotlight case 80-1121-Civ-JWK
southern District of Florida. Gordon Winslow has been trying to
get this case now for the last two years. He was able to obtain
one box of records only to be told that the othel- box had been
misfiled. 1 am the author of the enclosed book on tile Kennedy

Bill Craig RE: SDF CIVIL CASE

Federal Records Center 80-1121-CIV-JWK
ST Joseph Avenue HUNT vs MARCHETTI
East Point, GA 30344
Dear Mr. craig:
At the beginning of 1994 I ordered the above captioned file from the Clerk of
Court in Miami. Because the file had been ordered by the Clerk in 1993 and
it was being prepared for return to your storage facility, it was estimated
to take six weeks to return the file to Miami. (The estimated time of return
to Miami was to have been about April 1, 1994.)
After numerous calls to the Clerk SDF, it was noted that the file had been
requested at least three times from your facility, and finally arrived in
June 1994. Upon inspection of the file, it was noted that a number of
volumes were missing. (The highlighted items on the enclosed docket reflect
the items received.)
The file is in two series of volume numbers, five volumes and twelve volumes.
Volumes 1-3 of 5 and volumes 6 & 8 of 12 were missing. (Vols 2 & 3 of 4
volumes of criminal case 80-570-CR-EPS were filed in the box received.)
Further investigation indicates that there were two record center boxes at
your facility that contained case number 80-1121-CIV-JWK, but only one box
was sent to the SDF upon my request. The acquisition number is 021 940 138
and the location number is C088221 . . The second box, which was not sent, has
enough empty space to accommodate the missing volumes.
I would appreciate your assistance in locating these missing volumes. A

check of the filing bins at your records center indicates that re-filing of
returned files have been sitting in the bins for up to two years. It is
possible that when a previous requester ordered the file in late 1993 it was
in a re-file bin and had not been refiled at the time my request was made.
Sincerely,
Gordon W. Winslow
Clerk's Archives Manager
*********************************************************************
AJ, I called this guy two weeks ago since he never responded to my letter.
I faxed him a copy and talked with him. He returned my call two days later
telling me that he would search for the missing volumes. He assured me that
he would find the volumes by Christmas ...... We will see.

1. On tha t date I wa s an empl o yee of the Central Intelligence

a commercial buil d ing in Washington, D. C.

2. I was driving with my late wife on H Street near 8th or 9th

Street when we fir s t heard of the Kennedy shooting on our car

radio. We had been purchasing Chinese groceries at a store named,

as well as I can rec a ll it , "Wah Ling". I do not know how long

of his having theorized a 11

caused Kennedy's shooting.

3. From the Chine s e grocery s t ore we drove out Wisconsin Avenue

to pick up our daughter, Kevan , from Sidwell Frie nds Sc hool. On

joining us my daughter told us what we al r eady knew: that President

was probably already at home. As I recall , our eldest child, Lisa,

arrived soon afterward by bus from Ursuline Academy and joined us

at the television set in our basement recreation room where we

stayed long hours watching t he unfolding of events: the swearing-in

of LBJ, the arrival at Andrews Field of the Presidential coffin,

9. I was not in Mexico in 1963 . In fact, I was not in Mexico
