[302]cross box, —
[304]2, Specifically, tt is destred to have the capability of recognizing which
[305]cable terminals tia box are being used for telephone tapping without having any
[306]markings apparent to unauthorized persous, This system is needed for use in
[307]the event that taps must be disconnected quickly under the direat of a possible
[308]security problem,
[310]3. The tap connections are made by LIFEAT telephone company per-
[311]sonnel and the terminals could be marked by them at the time the tap is made,
[312]The connections sometimes have to pe removed by another person who is not
[313]familiar with the comections,
[315]4, {tis felt that a quick drying, transparent glue or lacquer thar would
[316]fluoresce brightly under UV Ulumination would be appropriate, A material that
[317]could be remuved later by wiping or chipping it away would be desirable but this
[318]characteristic ts not vital,
[320]5. The system must be usabie in open shade, although some additional
[321]shade might be had by partially closing the doors of the box, and the light source
[322]must be portable and if possible have the appearance of an ordinary flashlight,
[323]The light source can be brought within two inches of the terminals,

[775]Prey of FI/D not with Navid M. wILSTS? (pa).
[777]2. VILSTED emphasised that the whole telephone systen in} Mexteo
[778]City is undergving a reformation. The company Telefonos de Yexteo, S.Asy
[779]has sub-contracted this work of cleaning up and rearganisins the phono
[780]systen to the independent firs, Intel. Thay are cloaring w unused and
[782]“old lines; putting in new: and spare lines, redefining exchango areas,
[783]‘laying underground cables, etc, Fventually we should be better off bor
[785]cause there should be nore surplus limes. The renovation work his
[786]hampered much of the LIFZAT work, principally bocauso mary of the Lines
[788]- Row are underground and we camot pet access to them before they enter
[790]the central. This is particularly true with respect to the Cesch Sme
[792]. bagsy, to whose telenhone lines we esnnot obtain access Iran the vantara
[794]point we now occupy.
[796]3e WILSTRD ecid that we try to keop track of the activities of
[797]"Intel" but since thoy eesa to attack "Colonias™ at randoa, wa havo no
[798]prior waming of their presence in a certain area. . .
[800]he In the recent past, “axico has beer using houses for Listing
[801]posts for security reasons. we have sore control over tha ecceas of
[802]phone company inspectors or repairman to houses. However, under newt
[803]regulations, all new apartaont buildings oust have telentone lines ine
[805]stalled in the building by the phone company during the corstruction
[807]phase. This means that the Lines and their deutination are concealed,
[808]WILSTED proposed that this will mean ve can agein use arertosnts since
[810]_ we can siphon off a line dastined for use Ly another tenant in such a
[812]way that the phone company cannot trace ite destination without tearing
[814]‘the building apert ‘and we can then insto2l a sensrate Lina to the build-
[816]ing and hook up the subseriier to this Line which, ag. checeeds. will:
[818]bolong to a lagitimia subscriber,
[820]Se One systom which has been used effectively is to taka one-half
[821]of two separate pairs which have one faulty Lins each, These wo hnlf
[823]_ pairs than forn one good pair which wa can use.
[825]6. ‘WILSTED explained that it cost about 3900 pesos to got. a
[826]reguler telephone. This entaila the purchasa of 2 televhons company
[827]Dandy whish later can be sold,

[1063]A. Exploitation of Leads ©
[1065](1) LIFEAT/SOVIET . With the departure cf Vladimir G,’
[1066]NOVIKOV during the munth of August 1962, ic was decided chat LIPEAT should
[1067]pick up coverage of his replacement Svyatoslav F, KUZNETSOV, The contin-
[1068]ucd coverage of wleksandc G, SIDOROV, which includes extensive periods of
[1069]live- monitoring ‘and special process ing of the take, is considered essential to
[1070]those Station-assets involved in the attempt to place the technical surveillance
[1071]noted in last month's report (see reference A). Coverage of the Soviet Bulletin
[1072]Office continues to provide interesting personality data on Soviet officials
[1073]assigned to Mexico, .
[1075](2) LIFEAT/POLISH LIFEAT coverage in support of the
[1076]BEKNAVE/BECHICK operation continues to be vital to that operation, Addi-
[1077]tional coverage for this operation has been undertaken, Leads from which will
[1079]- probably determine future direction of the operation as well as aid KUBARK in
[1080]controlling the operation, ,
[1082](3) LIFEAT/YUGOSLAV __. In this area LIFEAT provided the infor-
[1083]mation that a cousin of a recently assigned KUBARK deep cover agent, Victor
[1084]W. OBOLD (ps) will be travelling to Mexico inthe near juture. This cousin is
[1086]- a long-time Communis: Party official and a chance meeting with hita could
[1087]have destroyed OBOLD's carefully prepared cover, Due cw LIFEAT advanced
[1088]warning, proper security safeguards have been arranged, LIFEAT has also
[1090]provided travel information on Yugoslav officia!s froni the United States which
[1092]was of great interest oc ODENVY OATE TPLD DATE OISPAIGNED

[1132](3) LIFEAT/American Communist Group in Mexico (ACGN)
[1133]This coverage is at the request.of the local office of ODENVY and the processing
[1134]of take in -his, area. is done by that office. One of the niost interesting items
[1135]provided from this coverage. was tae fact that the American Communists Albert
[1136]MALTZ.and Margaret Larsia MALTZ had separated and that Albert MALTZ
[1137]would probably reside in the U.S. with Margaret remaining in Mexico. Con-
[1138]ceming ihe LIFEAT coverage of the ACGM, ihe local office of ODENVY wrote
[1139]on 23 August 1962: "This office feels that the coverage mentioned Is quite .
[1140]valuable and many useful leads are obtained from this cov erage, particularly
[1141]with regard to travel in and out of Mexico of American Conimunists who are
[1142]in contact with individuals on whom coverage is maintained”,

[1152]D. Security
[1154]During che early part of August 1962 a group of “coyotes” was uncovered
[1155]In the telephone company in Mexico City and a number of arrests were made,
[1156]This group had organized a unit. including linemen, ceniralmen, installation |
[1157]crew, Warechousemen, and workers in the office responsible for providing ser-
[1158]vice to new clients, It was ihe-purpose of the "coyote": group to provide service,
[1159]fora price, ‘o those individusls wnose requests for insiallations had been turned
[1160]down by che telephone company due to limited availability of cables and contacts,
[1161](Note: The company generally keeps a certain number of "spare pairs” in each
[1162]cable for its own use ln providing special service, company phones, and for re-
[1163]routing during repairs co other cables, It was these spare pairs and contacts
[1164]which the “coyotes” used to provide illegal phone service.) This telephone com-
[1165]pany within the telephone company would also collect monthly fees from their
[1166]“subseribers". When the story came out, ihe telephone company had special
[1167]police stationed in each central and spot checks made of linemen and crews to -
[1168]preven: recurrence, [t was therei‘ore necessary for the LIFEAT linemen to
[1169]refrain from any clandestine activity for a period of almost four weeks so as
[1170]not to be accidentally picked up as a member of the "'coyote’ group, LIFEUD-1
[1171]has reported ihat the situation is now back co riormal with the special police
[1172]details and special checkups terminated, No compromise of ihe LIFEAT oper-
[1173]ation resuited. from the above incident.
[1175]E. Teennical
[1177]In Gddition to re-supplying LIFEAT with audio recorders (as reported in

[1213]after.a long period uf family disagreemans, have mutually decided ona
[1214]divorce, Both are being terminated by KUBARK since their usefulness as
[1215]basehouse keepers for the project will end with their divorce. The agents have
[1216]agreed to the termination and it-will be accomplished ou a friendly basis,
[1217](Agent Service Records will be forwarded), Therefore, it has been necessary
[1218]to close Annex VI and terminate coverage of the lines provided by that base-
[1219]house, LIFEUD-24 and LIFEUD-26 have been recruited to replace the ter-
[1220]minated couple and are presently looking for a suitable basehouse which could
[1221]fully replace ihe old Annex VI. (Note: POA was granted for LIFEUD-24 on 28
[1222]June 1962: and OA was requested, “Also, OA was requested for LIFEUD-26
[1224]on 30 August 1962.)

[1432]D. Security
[1434]No securlty incldents directly affecting the operation or future of
[1435]LIFEAT were noted during July 1962, The asslgnment of special telephone
[1436]compahy crews to make a survey of spare telephone lines available for
[1437]use of new subscribers may cause problems when these Crews uncover a
[1438]“spare” line used‘in a LIFEAT coverage, However, sincé these crews
[1439]have no authority (or desire) to'trace down the Ines to thetr ultimate .
[1440]destination, normal LIFEAT security pracitces should negate this danger,
[1441]A second development which could cause future problems is the possible
[1442]assignment ofa LIENVOY techniclan to check telephone ceatrals to see
[1443]exactly wio else may be carrylag oa LIENVOY iype work, -As of this date
[1444]LIFEAT personnel, who have heen provided with the crue name of this
[1445]individual, have never heard of him working in any central in Mexico City,

[1451]New recorders provided in May.to LIFEAT are now in operation and

[3255]* On.the evening of 1S June COS met with LITENSGR at me home of LIELEGANT
[3256](seo MEXI-5761), Among other subjects discussed, LITENSOR urgently
[3257]suggestod thar OCS arrange coverage of the Soviet/Sateliza installations.
[3258]Since this coverage Is obviously one of great Literest to KUBARK, COS was |
[3259]left with no alternative but to cuthuslistically accept LITENSOR's suggestion,
[3260]LIELEGANT way equally enthusiastte about the sugzectton and requenied COS
[3261]‘to furalsn a Hist of target nes as coon as possible. On 2UJune Maleolm Q.
[3262]EDELAND passed to LIENVOY/2 a ILst of 4 Soviet, 2 Polisi, 2 Czech and 2 Yugo-
[3263]slav lines. The Polish, the Czech, Yugoslav and | Soviet line were placed witiln
[3264]two days. Meanwhile-all LIFEAT Sovict/Satellite lines were reinoved. Alter
[3265]due consideration lt was decided to advise LIENVOY/2 that we would prefer to
[3266]drop the 2 Pollah Ines aad ut least one Yugoslav line and use all remaining
[3267]avatlable lincs (LIENVOY can handle a magzimurn of 30 Has, always keeplag
[3269]‘two spares) to cover a total of five Sovict Itnas and keeplag the two Czech Mnea
[3270]already la operation, ‘This was agreed to but the [sur addtional Sovler lines
[3271]Could nat be placed immediacsly dug to the temporary absence from we city of

[3278]i
[3282]The evenruality of a request from high Mexican officials for LIENVOY coverage
[3283]of Soviet/SateHite with tta attendant affect upon LIFEAT had been foreseen by
[3284]the Station for sometime. On az least two previous occasions when a hint way
[3285]made to OOS by lesser officials than LITENSOR, COS waa able to dissuade
[3286]these officals on the basis of tack of qualified persoanel for processinay, trana-
[3287]ertbing, and exploting the take that would come from taps against Sovlet/ |
[3288]Satellte installations, However, an the above occasion whe LICENSOR evea
[3289]went 80 far.aa to suggest that the trauslatlons could be haadled by language
[3290]experts at Headquarters COS wa:i in no positlon to argue thls point with.
[3291]LITENSOR, ‘The actual Impremenration of the Change over of Soviet/Sutellize
[3292]coverage from LIFEAT to LHENVOY (LIFEAT went back on Polish Legatton in
[3293]late June) was accomplished smoothly, with no flapa and the Station does net en-
[3294]visien any problems, certainly, in the Immediate future. . _

[4076]8 June 1960
[4078]KEMORATOUN For:  C/WY/3/Mexico
[4079]SUBJECT: LIFEAT
[4081]1. Dur ing my recent visit to Meixteo I had a geod chance to go
[4082]over many of the ins-and-outs of this project with the Case Officer
[4083]and with other officers in the Station. At Station staff.meeting I po
[4084]stated that reporting on CI material derived from thu project was .
[4085]inadequate and COS appeared to so along with this view, ‘The conesnsus °
[4086]I got from the Case Officers was that the SP Case Officer is not
[4087]sufficiently alert to the need for reporting on the CI aspects of
[4088]tha matter and is limiting himself to strictly servicing Sk. Division
[4089]matturs, Various Case Officers cited instances to me of conversations
[4090]peintins to new clandestine relatienships or containing previously
[4091]known clandestine relationships in the Soviet field which have not
[4092]been reported. ° Owing to a lack of time, I was unable to examine the
[4093]records myself, but I am inclined to accept those statements as true,
[4095]2. The Case Officer gave me a general run-down of tho situation
[4096]. of the agents on this project ans it appears that everything is running
[4097]“very well, He told me that in his new project outline, which will
[4098]be up. in a week or two, he is including some raises to some of the
[4099]agents. He told me that on his iast round of pay raises he had some
[4100]difficulty here at headquarters. If any difficulty seems forthcoming
[4101]this time, I should like to have the matter brought to my attention
[4102]‘because, as you know, I feel very strongly on this matter and fought
[4103]the sano battles. with headquarters for at least five years, —
[4105]‘3, In speaking with the Case Officers on the Cuban side, as well
[4106]as on the CI, it wag apparent that LIFSAT remains probably the biggest
[4107]single source of information available to the Mexico City Station
[4108]and that every effort should be nade to continue its smooth functioning.
[4109]If this means a couple of huncrad pesos increase to each agent semi-annually
[4110]or annually, it does rot seem to te too much of a strain and I do net
[4111]see why we should have any trouble, When I compare the salaries of
[4112]the base operators and processers cn this project, especially consicering
[4113]illegal position they are in, with those of relatively unproductive
[4114]agents elsewhere in Yexico and in zany other Stations, I cannot help
[4115]but feel that we are buying a creat deal for our money in this project.

[4128]MEMORANDUM FOR THS RECORD
[4129]SUBJECT: DEARIEFING OF CAYID M. WILSTED (ps)
[4131]2. On 2 June 1960 Mr. John 3. Heyn ard Mr. John Kennedy of WED,
[4133]“Mr. Robert: Brown of CI/OPS, “tr. Robert Bryant of FI/OPS and Me. Charles
[4135]Bray of. FI/D mat with Navid M, WILSTED (pa),
[4137]2. WILSTED emphasizes that the whole telephone system in Mexico
[4138]City is undergoing a reforzation. Tha company Telofonos da Mexico, S.A.,
[4139]has sub-contracted this work of. cleaning up and reorganizing the phone
[4140]system to the independent ‘firm, Intel, They are cleaning up unused and .
[4141]old lines, putting in new asd Spare lines, redefining exchange areas,
[4142]laying underground cables, etc, Eventually we should be batter off bee
[4143]cause there should be, more surplus lines. The renovation work has
[4144]hampered much’ of tha LI?Za? work » principally because many of the lines
[4145]now .are underground and we camot get access to them beforo they enter
[4146]tho central. This io particzlarly true with raspect to the Czech Eme
[4147]bassy, to whose telephone lines we cannot obtain access from the vantage
[4148]point we now occupy, : ss
[4150]3. WILSTED seid that we try to koep track of the activities of
[4152]"Intel" but since they seez to attack "Colonias" at random, we have no
[4154]prior warning of theiy prasence in a certain area.
[4156]he In the recent past, “exico hes been using houses for listing
[4157]posts for security reasons. - de have more control over the accass of
[4159]' phone company inspectors or repairmani to houses. However, under new
[4161]regulations, all new apartrect bulldings must have telephone lines ine
[4162]stalled in the ‘building by tae pkong comoany during the constructicn
[4164]‘phase. This means that tha lines’ and'their destination ara concealed.
[4166]WILSTED proposed that this will mean we can again uso apartments since
[4167]we can siphon off a line dJastined for use by another tenant in such a
[4168]way that the phone company carmot trace its destination without tearing
[4169]the building apart and we can then distall a separate line to the build-
[4170]ing and hook up the subseriter to this, line which, if checked, will
[4171]belong to a legitimato subscriber, : i ‘ .
[4173]Se -One system which has been used effectively is to take oneehalf?
[4175]‘ of to saparate pairs which hava one faulty line each. Thesa two half"
[4177]pairs than fora one gcod Dair which Wo can use,
[4179]66 WILSTsD explainad that it cost about 3000 pesos to get a
[4181]’ regular telephone. This entsile tha purchase of a telephone company
[4183]bond, which later can be sold,
[4185]14-0000

[4197]before office hours by RAFANELLI. He only enters ona basehouse which is
[4198]occupied ty an elderly couple. Alt other contacts are in automobiles.
[4200]Sige. spote each day of the week, RAFANELLI then takes the
[4202]-msde at 2iffarent
