mainly due to the fact that he is not suited for what has 'to be done. He st a rted working for JMWAVE in April . l950 as a Principal Agent and ciuring the period preceding the Bay of Pigs he handled a number ~f political action agents and spotted and developed several candidates for recruitment.

5. ~trong points have been his dedication and enthusiasm for his work. He bas, however, been some~bat of a problem in that he is a ''heavy banded" operator who tries to impress his con­tacts with his importance, thereby committing a number of indiscre­tions. A good example of this can be found in his perfogil[ca Juring the recent election of officers in the 2506 Brigade.

Instead of monitoring tha. activi­tie s of h i s contacts however~ · be began hal'!l!l!ering away at them, . ·/-.· ins tructing them to work ag;i.inat certain candic~·tes. This gave the imoression that~was attempting to rig the elections. through ~1. This immediately came to tbs Station's attention, as some of these contacts were working for JMWAVE and complained through tbe i r case officers that was throwing his weig~t around and giving th~ression that he was running the election for WOFACT.

hi~. Parb~ps be ~as right since it becace o0vious in the past s~ ·,~r.:J.l months that he had li ttla aptitude for debriefing refugees or b~ndling contacts. In any event, we felt tb~t in all fairness to A~CLA~~, that he should be termiuated at the fi~st suit~ble opportunity and in a manner that would be helpful and beneficial to hiro. It was also preferabla to get him settled outside tha J:!WAVZ area. He bi.illsalf realized that he ~as getting old~r, and that ther 5 was little opportunity for him in the type ol work that he was doing for JMWAVB. The job that he has obtained in Chicago rapr:csen·t s a real break for bim as well as a considerable increase in salary. We feel ha deserves tbis break and hope ba performs t:all.

His home address did appear on a~ntalligence service c~nsorship ~which possibly containad the names and/or addresses of alleged ntelligenca agents in411111J;sbut tae valid~ty of tbe lis was never fully confirmed and he was SGSWiaLED on this . nattsr i n April 1964 with overall ~avorable results.

,APPROVED FOR RElEASE 1993 . CIA HISfORICAl RDtEW PROiiRAM lB January 1960

HU\ORA.NDUM FOR: Director of Security Attention:. Alien Affairs Branch

SUBJECT Exfiltration from Cuba of Bernard BARKER

I

1. This memorandum will confinn recent conversations between Hr. William Cotter of your office and Mr. R. Landreth of this Division regarding assistance from the Immigration and Naturalization Service relevant to the exfiltration from Cuba of Subject.

2. It has been arranged that Subject be exfiltrated the morning of 18 January in and landed at Homestead Air Force Base outside of i1iami. ~.!lr assistance ilr havln.g Subje-et paroled to the ~m Dirlsion representative in-Miami was requested and received. At the emphatic reque~t of :rns, relayed to us by your office, this Division has made it abundant~ clear, by cable to Habana and telephone to our representative _ in Hiami, that the initial cooperation of :rns with regard to granting parole st~tus to Subject did not imply that any special consideration would be given to Subject in his ~est for resident status and the ~gaining of u.s. citizenship~ and i'urth&rmmoe that Subject shou~ in no circumstances initiate_ any action towards these ends while in the -Ygted States on a parole basis. - ~ ~--

3. To re-emphasize the foregoing to Subject, this Division will advise its Miami representative (with whom Subject -..dll be in contact on arrival) to spell out with vehemence and clarity the limitations inherent in Subjectts parole status. Subject will be advised that aJJiY attempts to obtain resident status or rega:in U.s. citizenship can only be initiated at such time as Subject will be able to do so in the nonnal fashion from another countr,r. -

4. As a detemination regarding Subject-~ ~Sible utilization by' us m a Latin American cruntr,r other than Cuba has no y t been made, this Division is present~ unable to give an accurate estimate of the length of time Subject will remain in the United States on a parole basis. A satis.factor,r reso]J}+i ~ of this matter is the object of our "urgent considerat~:snBWever; and no effort will be spared to respect the wishe~ of INS -with regard to Subject during the intervening period.

A Let me explain. I had to come to Miami; when

· he was arrested on the 17th of June, I was here at the time.

I went to visit him about -- I can't recall exactly; those

were hectic days -- the 23rd, 24th, maybe, during that week,

and they had no lawyer, nobody took care of them. McCord

was the only on~, somebody did take care of him, and he was

out on bail. The other four men were completely abandoned,

so, what I did, i came to Miami, and Mr. Gladwell (phonetic),

from

MR. DARDIS: Caldwell (phonetic).

MR. GERSTEIN: Please don't prompt the witness. Let

her answer.

THE WITNESS: He was the one that put up the bail

Who? Q

A Mr. Artime. I told him I had some financial ,

problems; not financial problems in the sense that I w~s about

to go without food or anything like that, but I had this lawye r

in Miami taking care of certain things.

Q Who was the lawyer?

A Hr. Roman.

Q What is his first name?

A That's what I'm trying to remember. If you

kill me right now -- Wait, wait, wait.

Q

A

··I asked him if he could lend me some money.

Lend you?

Yes, to :pay this lawyer which my husband had

wh~n he was taken prisoner. We were owing him a little over

$1,000, and the man naturally wanted his money, so he says,

"No, I'm going to give you $1,500." I said, "How are you

going to give me $1,500? I won't be able to pay you back

until God knows when. My husband .is in prison.'l He said,

"Never mind. You have friends and I have a friend who has

given me money to give to the families of the four people

in the case, if you get any emergencies or anything. This

is a good point; how much do you need?"

or something like that.

I think it was $1,%00 .;.

Q M1en was this, in January?

A I would say towards the end of January.

Q Of this year?

A Of this year.

Q

A

Q

A

And he said the money was from a friend?

From a friend.

Did he tell you who the friend was? ~

No, ·sir, he didn't. He just told me we had

some friends that had given him some money to help us. Then

he later on-- I went back to Washington · and I stayed there

for some period of time. Then he went there once to visit

us, and I also told him that I had to c.ome home, because I

really was imposing on my daughter. She lives there, and I

didn't have too much money, and he gave me another $1,000.
