Honorable Allen Dulles
Director
Central Intelligence Agency
Washington 25, D.C.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has made an
investigation and submitted information to this Division con-
cerning recent activities of the following persons and
organizations, and has requested our opinion as to whether or
not possible violations of the Neutrality laws are indicated
and whether further investigation is desired.
In each instance I am advising the Bureau that no in-
vestigation is desired at the present time, but that these
matters will be discussed with the new administration after
January 20. In brief, the facts in each case are as follows:
allegedly a "prominent United States diver,"
reportedly was contacted by Cuban friends and offered X25,000 to
destroy the main refinery supplying diesel fuel for power in
Santiago Harbor in Cuba. Tentative plans call for the purchase of
a two-man submarine from an unknown individual on Long Island to
be used in the operation. If the oil refinery is in fact owned
by the Cuban government, there could conceivably be a violation
of 18 U.S.C. 956.
