                 ACTIOX REQUIRED:  FYI


                      1.  During the past few months, the Station'has been conducting
                 areview of the AMSPELL project and analyzing its effectiveness past
                 and current as well as its short and long term potential. The
                 foregoing, together with continuing problems with the AMSPELL
                 loadership to conform to budgetary allotments and approved operational
                 activities# has resulted in a decision to sharply reduce Station
                 support to the AMSPELL organization.

                     2.  The AMSPELL-organization has been affected by the loss of
                many of Its most capable members who have outlived the youth/student
                category and have resigned to seek employment outside of the JEWAVE
                area.  Manty of the departed members were those who have made major
                contributions -in MHSPAWN activities. Those who have remained are
                largely ineffective for use in Station NHSPAWN operations due largely
                to their.lack of credentials, interests and talents In the youth/studen
                fields and in addition a conflict of AMSPELL interests with KUBARK
                has existed especially in the field of paramilitary operations where
                AMSPELL would like to be independently active.  The Station' through
                principal agent Sherwood L. OVERBEY, has had.a series of conversations
                with the AUSPELL leadership and the result has been their acceptance..
                of drastically reduced financial support, continuance of contact and
                willingness to respond to Station request for specific propaganda
                and political-action activities.

                     3.  The Station now-plans to provide maximum financial support
                of $1,000.00 monthly to AMSPELL beginning February 1966.  The greater
                portion of this sum will finance the printing and distribution of
                a new, bi-monthly publication to be sent to selected inteznational
                and PBRUMEN addressees.  The remainder will be spent for operational
                expenses incurred by AMINT-2, who will  participate in the preparation
                of the magazine and who will be available for maintaining contacts
                and for travel in the international student field, and.for occasional
                operational support and overhead expenses.  Per ASMINT-2's request
                and in view of the desire of AMSPELL members to seek independent
