                     Mexico Station Coverage of Soviet  and Cuban Embassies (1963)



                     1. 0iffilateral Coverage:

                        From the time the Mexico Station  was opened in April 1947 until

               the arrival of Mr. Win Scott as Chief  of.Station inT9 557, the Station had

               developed a support apparatus to exploit  leads from.the Soviet Embassy in

               Mexico City.  This umbrella type  project (LIPSTICK) consisted of multiline

               phone taps, three photographic  sites, a mobile surveillance team and a

               mail intercept operation.

                        Telephone taps  (LIFEAT) were placed by

                                 who  EEhandled   by a Station case officer.  The number

               of lines tapped was  limited only by the availability of a listening post

               nearby and the availability  of langauge (English, Spanish, Soviet, Polish,

               Czech, etc.) transcribers.   Generally, these were Mexican or Mexican-

               American recruited  agents.

                        Three  photographic sites were handled by a Station case officer

              ..assisted by technicians on TDY from Headquarters who advised the Station

              on  the best .types of cameras, films, and concealment devices.  These

              operations   had sub-crypts under project LIPSTICK (namely: LIMITED, LILYRIC

              and  LICALLA).   LIMITED was a fixed site directly opposite the Soviet Em-

              bassy   (across the street) which had both a vehicle and a pedestrian en-

              trance.   The  gate to the Soviet Embassy was on the northwest corner of the
