            Subject:  Background on Mexico Station Support Assets
                      (Coverage of Soviet and Cuban Embassies)


            1.  Unilateral coverage.  From the time the M.exico Station was opened in

            April 1947 (by Bill Doyle) until arrival of Win Scott as COS in 1956, Charles

            Anderson III (still in LA/HQ) had developed a support apparatus to

            exploit leads from the Soviet Embassy.  This umbrella type project (LIEAT)

            consisted of multi line phone taps, three photo sites, a mobile surveillance

            team and a mail intercept operation.

                        a.  Fhone taps were placed by an employee of the telephone company

                        who  was handled by David WILSTED (pseudo).  The number of lines

                        tapped  was liited by availability of a listening  ost nearby

                        (since  the taps were not -made in the ain-Ai       and English/

                          Spanish  (Soviet, Polish, Czechs~ etc) .trancribers. Generally

                          these agents  (most             Mexican American) were related
                                               r,
                           (which t              hat time felt was good security in that

                           if they w    d about shop, they would talk to each other.)


                           b. Three photo  sites were handled by Anderson with the help

                           of Harry Mahoney (retired, living in Chicago) and TDY TSD

                           people checking the best type of camera, film, and concealment

                           devices.  These had sub-cripts under LIFEAT (LIMITED, LILYRIC,

                           and LICALLA).  LIMITED was a fixed site bang opposite across

                           the street from the front gate of the Soviet Embassy which had

                           both a vehicle and foot entrance. The Soviet gate 'was on the

                           -orth:est corner . of their compound and LIMITED was diagonally

                           across a double barrelled street on the Sout'noc         w
                         --                     .
