      MORNDUM FOR: Chief, WUD for Cuba

      SUBJECT          Espinosa Allegations


            1. Sensitivity:  Regardless of accuracy, they

               A.  present a problem because of their having been
               presented to other government agencies;

               B.  in view of matters touching on U.S. security,
               are delicate and could have unfavorable repercussions
               if repeated to newsmen by the complainant or his
               associates (whose independent, previous threats were
               of greater potential embarrassment);

               C.  affect the reputations and the security of our
               personnel at Madrid and Paris.

            2. Action:  In view of the foregoing, the allegations

               A.  should be put in proper perspective - i.e., not
               ignored because of the potential embarrassment but
               considered in the light of what we already know
               (Almost all of them are repetitions of previoas
               charges and reports, known well to both the Madrid
               and Paris stations and to Headquarters officers
               concerned with the AWUASH group, whose members'
               reliability, reputations and good faith are question-
               able.  Two of the charges - about       and Tota
               and about AMWHIP-1 and CARRILLO - are new.);

               B.   should be treated so as to protect us against any
               charge  of laxity and so as to establish the facts but,
               at  the same time, treated so as to avoid attributing.
               to  then more importance than they deserve;

               C.   should be kept in mind as examples of other
               charges which may betandied about and reported by the
               AMLASH  group ,to other governmental agencies or to
               other  governments or to news media (In the last
               connection recall the implied threat of publishing
               ODYOKE responsibility, as reported previously by
               MADR-3716,IN 38634.);
