          Subject:  Background on Mexico Station Support Assets
                    (Coverage of Soviet and Cuban Embassies)


         1.              coverage.  From the time the Mexico Station was ooened in

                     (by Bill Doyle) until arrival of Win Scott as COS in 1956, Charles

         Anderson  III (still in LA/HiQ) had developed a support apparatus to'r

         exploit leads  from the Soviet Embassy.  This umbrella type project (LIFEAT)

         consisted  of multi line phone taps, three photo sites, a mobile surveillance

         team and a mail  intercept operation,

                     a.   Phone taps were placed

                              handled  by David WILSTED (pseud').  The number of lines

                      tapped was lirited by availability of             post nearby

                      (since the taps  were not Ma               central) and English/

                      Spanish   (Soviet             h,  etc) transcribers.  Generally

                      these                   exican or Mexican American) were related

                      (which      station at that time felt was good  security in that

                        if they talked about shop, they would talk to  each other.)


                        b. Three photo sites were handled by Anderson with  the help

                        of Harry Mahoney (retired, living-in Chicago) and TDY TSD

                        people checking the best type of camera, film, and concealment

                        devices. These had sub-cripts under LIFEAT (LIMITED, LILYRIC,

                        and LICALLA). LIMITED was a fixed site bang opposite across

                        the street from the front gate of the Soviet Embassy which had

                        both a vehicle and foot entrance. The Soviet gate was on the
