Newly Released JFK Assassination Records


     1.  This memorandum is in response to your requst  for
information on recently released JFK assassination re6ords.
(U)

     2.  The documents released by the JFK Assassination
Records Board over the past three months cover Lee Harvey
Oswald's trip to Mexico City in September-October 1963.  The
basic information on this subject was released by the Agency
in 1992/93.  The latest releases do not contain significant
revelations; they primarily fill in gaps and add details to
a known story.   (U)

     3.  The new information in these releases is the
official confirmation of CIA's unilateral telephone tap
operations against the Soviet and Cuban Embassies in Mex
city.
                                       rThe existnce, of
intercepted Oswald-phone cals   as  een reported in the
press for years, and the transcripts of these calls have
been available at the National Archives since 1993.  Most
of the other new releases are pseudonyms and aliases of
employees, document and file numbers, and cryptonyms.  (S)

     4.  The Board has released some information that we
initially preferred to protect, e.g., details on some
operations and sources and the names of heveral Agency
employees.  To date, we have concluded that the damage to
national secdrity or risk to these individuals was not
sufficient to justify an appeal of the Board's decisions.
(U)

     5.  The Board and its staff have been cooperative in
reconsidering issues and tabling documents in response to
our concerns.  The issue of whether to release certain staff
employee names has been tabled until December to give the
Agency an opportunity to contact the individuals concerned.
