MEMORANDUM FOR: Chairman, Atomic Energy Commission
SUBJECT : Reply to Your Inquiry at 9 June NSC
Meeting
1. During Mr. Allen Dulles' briefing on 9 June at the NSC
meeting. you queried me regarding the identity of an unmarked
enclave along the coast of French Morocco on the North African
map. This is Spanish territory, called IFNI, which is administered
from Spanish Sahara. IFNI had its beginnings as a Spanish fishing
village in the fifteenth century. Spain's hold was confirmed by a
treaty with Morocco in 1860. The territory of 740 square miles
now has a mixed Spanish-native population of about 30, 000.
2. Mr. Dulles asked that I pass the above information on
to you.
