                 SOREs    A former  Cuban IS officer  who served with  the Cuban Intelligence
                          Si-rvice until April 1964.


                      1.  Although  there are many members  of the Direccion  General de
                          Inteligencia  (General Directorate  of Intelligence  . DGI) who
                          appear  interested in and  favorable.towardzthe Communist  Payty,
                          Sourge knows  of only three  persons who are actually  members:
                          Saul GONZALEZ,  aliasDonis;  Manuel VEGA Perez,  alias Marcos
                          Vicra; and  Felix SUAREZ. alias  Federico Santiesteban.
                          SUAREZ was  a sort cf rclitical  adviser in the DGI  operations
                          departments,  but insisted he  was not a commissar,  but, rather,
                          a person -in charge.  Although  Source and the other  officers
                          would tease  SUAREZ by calling  him Comisario, SUAREZ  greatly
                          resented  the term and actually  physically attacked  Source for
                          doing so.  Every  Saturday morning  at 8:30, SUAREZ  held a
                          pclitical  indoctrination meeting  which all personnel  were
                          supposed to  attend   Source was  habitually late to  these
                          sessions, and  althcugh ho was given  penalties for his  obvfous
                          disaffeztion,  he never paid any  attention to them.  The  DGI
                          personnel Source  knew were perfectly  willing to talk  politics
                          among themselves  but in a rather  desultory way; the discussions
                          never went on very  long.

                     2.   Apparently during  1962. there had been  considerable sentiment
                          for Anibal ESCALANTE  and his faction,  the Partido Socialista
                          Popular (PSP), but  in 1964 the PSP group  was disrupted  and
                          the real loyalty was  to Fidel CASTRO  rather than to the  Party.
