Chief, -Latin America Division
: A. Jack Anderson 20 January 1977 Column
Titled CIA T.ied to False Oswald Story
B. Identification of the Mr. X in the
Anderson Column

1. The attached column,. citing the testimony of a Mr. X,
alleges that a CIA agent tried to link Oswald to Wuhan intelli-
gence officers in Mexico. There is, of course, no substance to
the column's allegations. The column identifies the source as
Mr. X because of attempts on his life, but subsequently gives
enough information on Mr. X to establish his identity.
2.  According to the Anderson column, Mr. X was first met
by his CIA contact in Havana before relations with U.S./Cuba were
severed. Nr. X had-helped to organize bank accountants to em-
bezzle Cuban government funds to finance anti-Castro causes.
Mr. X was reportedly recruited by a Morris Bishop (CIA contact),
to plan an attempt on Castro's life. The plan was to fire a
bazooka from a nearby apartment building while Castro was deliver-
ing one of his marathon speeches. According to the Anderson
column, the plot was discovered by Castro's police and Mr. X
escaped to Miami. Mr. X also reportedly tried to assassinate
Castro in Chile in 1971 in league with the Venezuelan Luis Posada
Carriles, who is now being detained in Caracas for the 6 October
Cubana airline bombing: The Anderson column ends with the report
that Mr. X worked for CIA until 1973 for expenses, but was paid
$253,000 in cash by Norris Bishop when he was terminated.
