RETURN TO CIA - ----.-Background Use Only / Do Not Reproduce 13 January 194 10RADUM FOR THE RECORD SUBJECTs Cuba 'TD - Edward G. Tichborn (P) 3 1. On 12 January and 13 January I talked with Fand7 oof W11 Division to firm up details Z Tifhborna briating here. n 15 January and It preparations for his trip to Cuba. 2, RS the briefing, it was decided that: {l) Mr. will give Subject a general briefing on the Cuban political situation (The major one will be undertaken by the Station). (2) Subject will be given sanitized copies of the Yerlongo (P) report Section IV, and of the report prepared-by-the Plans Branc PP/. entitled *Target-Study of Opposition Groups in Vuba to.be iead by Subject while at the briefing and then returned to-a. s Sane observations on security will probably also be made at, this time 1 addition to instructions on the manner of keeping and submitting his finaianeoimting (It should.be mentioned here also that Ulf Finance/Admin is of the opinion thst since Tichborn will return to Vashingtor in aou weeks time, it is no~tnecessary for him to submit his accounts gr mail, since that can be taken care of on his rbturn.) 3.

In this case, WH has suggested that the answer o-Ftourist would be best since less suspicion would be placed on Subject in the beginning. The important aspect, however,.appears to be that of covering Tichbaxn as well as possible in the event that he runs afoul of the Cuban authorities due to the nature of his activities and his contacts. I brought this matter up with WH and they agreed that some kind of backatopping might be a good idea. As a result, I contacted Mr. Strange of Cover Division who assured me that, if ne-essary, an appropriate letter could be provided Tichborn from a cover com y~-The one finally decided upon as the Aost logical was the fof the cover ecpany(in 2L hich iie otiginally been provided for funding Tichborn. 1-
