1. As per; reference D Heddquar.ters concurs in this program and has offered
to forward requirements if JMWAVE so desires. Since this approval was obtained
from Headquarters, I have taken the following steps: (A) requested and obtained
some requirements from IS to be used in this program and (B) through PASSAVOY
have requested some basic infornation as to specific facilities for use in this
program. AMBUD-1 is to advise us on the following matters: if the Hotel Monroe,
fcr which ANBUD receives approximately $800 per month, has space available for
the- establishment of an interrogation center; if AMBUD.has individuals ,nowgs its
payroll who could be used in this program as interrogators and translators;7 if .
AMBRUD-1 has, as requested, advised the group members of AMBUD to each appoint
an individual as Jefe de Informacionx in such cases where one does not already
exigt.

2. My primary purposesin setting up this collection program is/to obtain
useful information and to make AMBUD a useful organization with a purpose in mind--
a purpose with a. practical aad visible ends. AMBUD is a large organization composed
of a numberc bfips and individuals which also has affiliates who are not actual
members. The personnel avaibb to it is undoubtedly unequailed in the WAVE Area.
From this vast reserve of manpower, there is every reason to believe competent
interrogators can be found, although most of them would naturally need training in
interrogation and reporting techniques, which factor can be surmounted. In addition
to the AMBUD personnel supply, there is also a vast., untouched number of sources in
of information in the WAVE area. For example, part of each plane load wkt of exiles
which arrives from CUba is released by Immigration; the remainder (about 2/3) are
sent to CAC. Of that number all are screened at CAC and about   are actually
interrogated at CAC due to the lack of personnel to handle any more cases. In aukxh
waida addition, no women arriving from Cuba are interrogated at CAC. Therefore,
the number of persons who are potential sources of information available to AMBU)
would be approximately 2/3 of all teose arriving from Cuba, plus all the women.
3. I think we should approcah this information collection program with an
aim o .ma in   it an a:tual going concern and not a holelag operation or as just
an aciivi y  o keep AMBUD busy or make them feel th-y are contributing to the case.
