RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Honorable Allen Dulles
Director
Central Intelligence Agency
Washington 25, D. C.
August 15 1961
Attention: Thomas Parrott
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has submitted informa-
tion to this Division concerning recent activities of the following
organization and individuals, and has requested our opinion as to
whether possible violations of the neutrality laws are indicated and
whether further investigation is desired:
"Volunteer Invaders for Freedom"
Albert Hamburg
Carlos Bourgois
Information furnished to us by the Federal Bureau of Investi-
gation reflects that these individuals have reportedly corresponded
with sources in the Scottsbluff, Nebraska area, in the interest of
recruiting individuals and raising funds for the "Volunteer Invaders
for Freedom" group. It is noted that Bourgois is identified as a
"Colonel" in the Cuban Revolutionary Council, Miami, Florida, and
Hamburg is indicated to be a "Recruiting Officer" for the group. The
available information further indicated that the "Volunteer Invaders
for Freedom" group is associated with the Cuban Revolutionary Council,
which group supported the April 17, 1961 liberation attempt against
Fidel Castro.
Prior to making a decision with respect to further investi-
gation of the activities of this group and of Hamburg and Bourgois,
I would be interested in any comment or observation you may wish to
make concerning this matter.
Sincerely,
J. WALTER YEAG
ssistant Attorney General
