MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT:  Meeting With CyUSLAB/1on  10 April 1970


        / 1.  Security and Arrangements:  The meeting  took place at-
    WTUStAB/l's home where he. is still recuperating from his eye
    operation.   I had to delay my arrival front 1200 until 1230,
    and  I phoned him concerning the delay.  He answered  the door
    and  we went upstairs where we sat in an upstairs study.   I left
    at  about 1400.
           _                  /
           2. Production:` CVUSLAB/1 s'aid that Jose Raul Viera Linares
   had  phoned him at his .home at about 1100 on S April.. Viera said
     that a friend had described to him an acquaintance who  had had
     an eye problem similar to CPSLA'B/2 (or words to that effect),
     and t atViera  now realized the seriousness of the case  and
     that WUSLAB/lwould  not be able to travel.  Viera said  that-
     the c an;ces were now remote that he would be returning to, New
     York.  A friend of his named Rogelio would contact NVUSLAB/Q
     Re did not saygwhen or where, but it would be when circumstances
     permit. @fUSLAB/  asked if Viera might be assigned to  another
     foreign country.  Viera did not deign to answer this question.

          3.  I asked WUSLAB/  what he considered the
                    iera were.  He thoumht an important factor wo'uld
     be Viera'd                                  He would not be
                         but he did like good living.  He also pro-
      a  y  i  no   ike  iving in Hav na, and would not like to stay
      there for a very l'ong period. I   /ltuhtothat if Viera came
      out to   o           as Spain that                  could
      easily               In the United States Viera was on his
      guard. Also in the United States Viera did not have high level
      contacts with the local government, whereas in other countries .
      he would be expected to have such contacts. Some of those con-
      tacts might then be also in contact with U.S./officials and you
      could get a cr ss- eck on Viera.  I toldCWUSLAB/2 that we would
      finish th          on Viera the .next time we get togetheu` V^T

          4.  Carlos Antonio C r asco, the Na ional Director for
     Education Planning, visie'  WJUSLAB/l on  April 1970.  Carrasco
'    claimed that the Bolivian government is in a period of stalemate.
    There is progress being made in only two fields.  One of these
     is planning and the other is education.  The Minister of Educatic
     Mariano Baptista has more power than  some of the other ministers
