                                              DRAFT           C   E



                Mr. G. Robert Blakey
                Chief Counsel and Director
                Select Committee on Assassinations
                House of Representatives
                Washington, D. C.   20515

                Dear Bob,
                     This will complete our review of the drafts provided by you, also
                completing comments on the package covered in other respects in my
                letter to you of 13 February.  This treats the section entitled Cuban-
                American.   In its present form the draft on the Cuban-American
                contains a variety of classified matters that should remain classifiedi
                in this form we have classified the draft SECRET and request that it be
                handled accordingly.  (C)
                     It is understood that this paper is intended for unclassified
                publication.  Comments here are intended to advance ways in which the
                story can be told in unclassified form.  (U)
                     First, as a generalization, you are familiar with the current extra
                sensitivity on publicity of CIA activities and presence in Mexico.
                Sensitive political relations between Mexico and the U.S, are real
                considerations, and a rather highly orchestrated campaign against CIA
                in Mexico at this time adds to the concern.  I have mentioned in my
                letter of 26 February the desirability of a formula that lets you make
                your general references and comments, without further advertising a CIA
                presence.  The suggestion was to indicate that CIA personnel there were
                something in the nature of visitors for the investigation; the formula
                suggested was somewhat as follows - CIA personnel assigned in Mexico for the
                investigation.  I have identified references to the Mexico City Station
                on pages 2-6 and 12, and the Monterrey Base at 5, 6, and 11.  I believe we
                can develop a formula that will be mutually acceptable on this.  (S)
                     I believe that earlier we furnished you an errata sheet on detailed
               corrections you would wish  to make. The  comments in this letter will
               address other  items of interest.  (U)
