           David Marwell
           Executive Director
           Assassination Records  Review Board

           Dear Mr. Marwell:

               Enclosed  is the diplomatic note received from the Mexican
           government, dated  March 12, 1997, which responds to the ARRB's
           request for any  additional documents that the Mexican
           government might  have relating to the assassination of
           President John  F. Kennedy.  The, Embassy evidently submitted the
           request to the Mexican  government on June 13, 1996, but*did not
           report the action  through telegraphic channels. The reference
           in the telegram  is to our recent query.

               The Mexican  government note conveys copies of the
           diplomatic notes. exchanged between Mexico and the United States
           in 1963-1964 regarding  the initial U.S. request for Mexican
           documents relevant  to the investigation into Lee Harvey.
           Oswald's visit to  Mexico in the fall of 1963. Most of these
           notes were published  in volume XVIII of the Warren Commission
           Report.  They also  duplicate copies of the same correspondence
           found in Legal Adviser's  and Mexico City post files that are
           included in State's  collection at NARA. I have stamped
           enclosed copies  of pages bearing confidential classification
           markings.  I am  also enclosing a copy of Mexico City telegram
         x 3078 of March  31.

               According to my  records, we have now received responses
           from all posts  contacted through the A bureau. Minsk remains
           ongoing.  Final responses  have been received from Bonn, Paris,
           London, Moscow,  and now.Mexico City. Interim responses have
           been received from  from Tokyo and Ottawa. As it has been  some
           time since Tokyo  reportedthat the Japanese government would  be
           searching for documents,  the ARRB might wish to prepare a
           followup cable.

                                             Sincerely,



                                             Nina J. Noring
                                             Department of State  Liaison
                                             JFK Assassination Records
                                               Collection Act
           Attachments:
             As indicated.
