the arrival of Mr. Win Scott as Chief of Station i1_955, 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 b an.lepoyeeof the local
te hone company who wa handled 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-

Three photographic sites were handled by a Station case officer

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
