MEMORANDUM FOR TIIE RECORD
1. The HSCA bas houn n allegations that a
man using the namel in Dallas,
Texas was in touch with certain anti-Castro Cubans in
Dallas, Texas. Newspaper sources on the subject indenti-
fied him as a CIA employee. Agency records disclosed
that there was never a CIA employee whose true name,
or pseudonym, was either of the variations noted above.
Nor did any Agency employee ever have a registered
alias in that name. It is the Agency's opinion that
there was never a CIA employee who used that name in
Dallas, Texas.
2. As a matter of interest, one of the alleged
I Iconnections was with an anti-Castro group that
received support from the US Army. If there was ever
a person using such a name he would more likely be a
person involved in that way than being from CIA.
3. The IISCA now has testimony b the former DCI.
Mr. John A. McCone, and
in which 7t hey recall an Agency employee
y i name. That testimony, of course, could be
used to attack the Agency's credibility in its response
to the HSCA on this subject.
4. We are convinced there was no such employee
and I have asked the Office of Personnel and the Office
of Security to collect for me information on all A ency
employees during the 1960s whose last name was
I intend to compile a portfolio of photographs for the
two gentlemen in question to review to see if they can
identify any of those persons.
