14 February 1977
MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Tadeusz (Tad) Witold SZULC (AM APE-1) (201-50539)
1. SZULC was born on 25 July 1926 in Warsaw, Poland.
He arrived in Brazil from Lisbon on 3 August 1940, and came
to the U.S. in October 1947 under sponsorship of U.S. Ambassador
. John C. WILEY, the husband of his mother's sister. He became
a correspondent for the New York Times (NYT) in 1953, and
became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1954 by a special
Congressional bill.
2. SZULC has been under suspicion as a hostile foreign
agent since 1948 when the FBI reported (apparently from *a
\ \ source) that he was a Communist. He brought himself
to the attention of CIA in August 1959 in Santiago, Chile by
claiming (falsely) to be cleared and requesting contact with
an Agency representative. This was the first of many such
incidents in Latin America, and resulted in a warning to all
Latin American Stations to beware of SZULC and his efforts to
interview Agency personnel. It also resulted in continuing
watch of his movements antd activities because they represented
a threat to the cover of Agency personnel. y 1960 his reputa-
tion was so widespread that several different CIA officers
called for an investigation that would clear up once and for
all his suspected connections with a hostile intelligence
service. He was in frequent contact with Communist Party
leaders and functionaries throughout Latin America, constantly
sought out and elicited information from U.S. Embassy officers,
