             FROM           :  Chief, CI Staff

             SUBJECT        :0 Lee .Harvey Oswald



                   1.  Lee Harvey Oswald's 201 file was first opened
              under the name of Lee Henry Oswald on 9 December 1960
              as a result of his defection to the USSR on 31 October
              1959 and renewed interest in Oswald brought about by his
              queries concerning possible reentry into the United States.

                   2.  The file contains two Federal Bureau of
              Investigation reports, dated 25 May 1960 and 3 July  1961,
              respectively, which contain interviews of Oswald's mother
              and brother concerning the possible return to the United
              States of Oswald and .of his loyalty. The American Embassy
              in Moscow also sent two telegrams in May and October  1961
              conveying Oswald's wish to return to the United States
              and five of Oswald's letters asking for compliance with
              his request.  The file also contains an Oswald letter  sent
              to the Marine Corps disputing the Marine Corps discharge
              classification ff him as undesirable.  It is believed  that
              the above documents were also circulated among the  FBI,
              State Department, Immigration and Naturalization  Service
              as well as Naval Intelligence.

                   3.  There is also a memorandum dated 16 October  1963
              from Win Scott, COS Mexico City to the United  States
              Ambassador there concerning Oswald's visit to Mexico
              City and to the Soviet Embassy there  in late September-
              early October 1963.  Subsequently there were  several Mexico
              City cables in October 1963 also concerned with  Oswald's
              visit to Mexico City, as well as his visits  to the Soviet
              and Cuban Embassies.  These cables were passed  on to
              the FBI, State Department and Naval  Intelligence while
              Mexico City Station was told  to pass the information. on to
