On 12 January and 13 January I talked with hil Toone) and (Bob Reynoads)of k$ Division to firm up details r2 Ti born's b efing here on 15 January and =g preparations for his trip to Cuba. 2. gg the briefing, it was decided that:- {1) Mr. (F.eynold) will give Subject a general briefing on the Cuban political situa ion (the majcr one will be undertaken. by the Staticn)-and (2) Subject will be given sanitized copies of the IPerlongo (2) report on ndia) Section IV, and of the report prepared bythe Plans BrancWPP/F entitled Target Study of Oppositicn Groups in Cuba to .be read by Subject while at the briefing and then returned to us. .

However, according -to Pan American Airways, upon arrival in Havana the visitor is issued.a tourist card by the Cuban Immigration authorities. One must state his profession at this time, which should present no problem to Tichborn. It could be that one is also asked his reason for being in uba. In this case, WH has suggested that the answer -or-tourist would be best since less suspicion would be placed on Subject in the beginning.

I brought this matter up with WH and they agreed that some kind of backstopping might be a good idea. As a result, I contacted Mr. Strange of Cover Division who assured me that, if ne-essary, an appropriate letter could be provided Tichborn from cover con .-,The one finally decided up n as the . ost logical was the of the cover copany(in 2 9 hich tad otiginally bee provided or funding Tichborn.
