              1.  I checked into the alleged relationship between
        Lee Harvey Oswald and the DRE with the following results.

              2.  The DRE was, an anti-Communist student organization
        funded covertly by CIA. It was known  v the cryptonym
        AMSPELL.  In the fall of 1962, the DRE organization in Cuba
        was penetrated and wrapped-up by the DGI. We continued to
        provide nominal financial support t4 the DRE until September
        1966 and terminated our relationshi? completely on amiable
        terms 1 January 1967.

             3.  According to the Warren Commission Report
        (VOL. X, Pgs. 32-50), Lee Harvey Oswald approached Carlos

        organization and to help train Cubans to fight against Castro.

        informant or Communist penetration agent. On 9 August
        some friends of idringuier saw Oswald wearing a Hands Off
        Cuba sign and distributing pro-Castro leaflets. They re-
        ported it to Brinquier who angrily accosted Oswald on the
        street. A fight ensued and Brinquier and Oswald wcre ar-
        rested. On 21 August 1963 the two engaged in a radio debate.
        Oswald identified nimself as a Marxist and defended the
        Castro cause. Bringuier is referred to later in the :barren
        Commission Report as the New Orleans delegate to the Revo-
        lutionary Student Directorate (VOL. XI, Pg. 159).

             4.  Tnere is no doubt that the Com-mission actually
       was referring to the Student Revolutionary Directorate orb `
       DRE as we term it. Another anti-Castro organization mentioned,X
