Warren Chief, Latin America Division A. Jack Anderson 20 January 1977 Column Titled CIA Ti-ed to False Oswald Story B. Identification of the Mr. X in the Anderson Column 1. The attached column, citing the testimony of a Mr. X, alleges that a CIA agent tried to link Oswald to Cuban intelli- - gence. officers in Mexico. There is, of course, no substance to the column's allegations. The column identifies the source as Mr. X because of attempts on his life, but subsequently gives enough information on Mr. X to establish his identity. 2. According to the Anderson column, Mr. X was first met by his CIA contact in Havana before relations with U.S./Cuba were severed. Mr. X had helped to organize bank accountants to em- bezzle Cuban government funds to finance anti-Castro causes. Mr. X was reportedly recruited by a Morris Bishop (CIA contact), to plan an attempt on Castro's life. The plan was to fire a bazooka from a nearby apartment building while Castro was deliver- ing one of his marathon speeches. According to the Anderson column, the plot was discovered by Castro's police and Mr. X escaped to Miami. Mr. X also reportedly tried to assassinate Castro in Chile in 1971 in league with the Venezuelan Luis Posada Carriles, who is now being detained in Caracas for the 6 October Cubana airline bombing. The Anderson column ends with the report that Mr. X worked for CIA until 1973 for expenses, but *was paid $253,000 in cash by Morris Bishop when he was tormiinated. 7- WARNING NOTICE S FNSIT I VE: INTEL I GENCE SOURCES AND MN1TODS INVOLVED S E C R E T EZ IMPI)ET CL BY 0252 .~ 1 - ~I~/ ) -A . * ~5.-~J .7 <I. .
