MMORANDUM  FOR    E RECOZ D

SUBJECTs  Tebphone Conversation with Bernie Reichhardt, 25 August

     1.  At 110  hours 25      6 Bernie Raicheardt called frc
Minni and asked f-rw'-       , who was not in. He then asked to
speak to me.  Fe sac-     - a   cordance with our request, he had
established contact with QDHAR  and asked him if he could furnish
aser aditional information on the large revolutionary radio center
coaleted  in March 1959, and on Augustin CAPO wb, according to
QZA2,   was the engineer in charge of construction of this radio
center.  QDCEAB said he was unable to add anything to the infor-
nation he had firmished in his origi-al debriefing, and said he
kne  nothing of the operations or who was in charge of or employed
at the radio center.  He repeated that the center was very large
and very expensive and said that CA3 had made a  trip to 5itzer-
land to buy the eouipment.  He voluntered  information that CAPO's
brother, Ernesto CAPO Jimenez do Ciszeros, was a Car=ist  and that
he had seen Erresto at a meeting in -avana, before BATISU fell,
when clandestice plans were being made to get Augustin, then treas-
urer of the 26th of July Movement, out of Cuba because his life was
in danger.   l^A.R said he didn't know whether CAO was still con-
nected with the radio center, but c~aented  that if contact could
be established CWO  would be able to furnish information about the-
center.  I don't know what reply Reichhardt made to QDCEA on this,
but he said to me that it was his unierstanding during his ree-ent
trip to Eeadquarters that contacts on the various operational leads
furnished by QCEaR  would be made th-ugh  the Havana Station, and
he assumed it was being done.

     2.  Reich!:ardt said that he had not received the personal docu-
ammts of QDGAR  which had been forwarded from Headquarters as a
separate attachment to  WuM-W-8. He was told they left this office


on 20 August.

     3.  Reichbardt said that on the basis of inforration frba
Station Havana (WVA-2590  that fami  were leaving Havana for Mexico
the morning of 24 August),  DGHAR had called Mexico last night and
learned they had not arrived. He wanted to know if any further in-
formation had been received from Havana about the family, and was
told there had been none.
