                         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 repercassions
                                  it repeated to newswen by the complainant or his
                                  associates (whose independent, previous threats were
                                  of greater potential embarrassment);

                                  C.  affect the renutations and the security of our
                                  personnel at        and

                              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 previous
                                  chatges a.  reports, known well to both  the
                                  and Paris stations and to Headquarters offiers       ---
                                  concerned with the ALASH  group, whose members'
                                  reliability, reputations and good  a    are  question-
                                  able.  Two of the charges - about       and  Tota
                                  and about AMWHIP-1 and CARRILLD - 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 atributing
                                  to them more importance than they deserve;

                                  C.  should be kept In mind as examples of other
                                  charges which may be bndied about and reported  by the
                                  AMASH  group to other governmental agencies  or to
                                  other governments or to news media  (In the last
