         Headquarters Comment.   The following  information,  as reported
         by source during  a debriefing,  includes a description  of the
         General Directorate  of Intelligence  (Direccion General  de
         Inteligencia  - DGI), a break-down  of each of  its departments,
         the functions  of each department,  a diagram  (Chart A) of the

         Introduction.

     1.  The General  Directorate of  Intelligence (Direccion  General de
         Inteligencia  - DGI) is the  Cuban external  intelligence agency,
         charged with  maintaining security,  collecting  information,
         and promoting  Cuban Government  intelligence  policies abroad.
         It is part  of the Ministry  of Interior (Ministero del   Int C-
         rior), and  was established  sometime in mid-1961.    It is con-
         cerned only  with operations  abroad.  The collection  of
         intelligence  within Cuba,  counterintelligence,  and security
         are the  responsibility of  the Department of  State Security
         (Departamento  de Seguridad  del  Estado - DSE).  The two agencies
         are  independent but maintain  liaison and coordination  on  cer-
         tain matters.

     2.  The DGI,  also known as  M, or M Department,  is organized
         under  a director general  and his deputy;  its components, are
         a main  headquarters with  administrative and  personnel offices,
         eight  departments, and  -the director's office (see organization
         charet of page 14).2   It is closely connected  with Ramiro   alds
         Menendez,  the Minister  of Interior 3  and  is also of continuing
         interest  tc Fidel Castro,  Raul Castro, and  Ernesto Che  Guevara.  5
