TO      Chief, SRS                            DATE: 9 October 1967

FROM    M. D. Stevens
susJCT: CAIN, Richard S.
#272 141
1. Reference is made to the attached 5 June 1967 DCS memo-
randum on Subject, which in turn made reference to previous DCS
memoranda on him on 24 and 25 May 1967 and to an Office of Security
memorandum dated 29 May 1967. The 5 June 1967 memorandum
enclosed copies of several 1963/1964 documents from the Chicago
Field Office's file on CAIN, which ADC/PSD forwarded to SRS with
the comment that It appears DCS is cleaning out their files re Lee
Harvey OSWALD, et al.
2. Subject, it is obvious, had been a source of information
regarding an alleged discussion of the assassination of President
Kennedy at a secret meeting of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee
held in Chicago in February 1963 under the direction of Richard
CRILEY (#346 116). He also was the source of information regarding
the alleged attempted recruitment into the Communist Party of young
Cubans in the Chicago area by one Guillermo ESCOBAR, who accord-
ing to the Chicago office was one of Horace SPEED's (SAS) leads
obtained from Ralph PEREZ. (Presumably Ralph PEREZ, #444260.)
I SPEED is Horace SPEED III, #199499. The documents also indicated
that in February 1964 CAIN was the subject of a conversation initiated
by Eldon S. COHEN, #38557 o/c, with a representative of the DCS
Chicago office who believed his purpose was to learn whether or not
CAIN was in fact on a two-month's sick leave from the COOK County
Z Sheriff's office, as he was said to be, or was on a political under
cover assignment which COHEN inferred involved tapping the tele-
phones of gubernatorial candidate Charles H. PERCY and other
political figures.
