Dear Sir:
Reference is made to letter from this office to the Bu-eau of
November 23, 1944, reecting en attempt being made at that time to reduce
the amount paid to this organization from $2,000 to $1,500 per month, and
to the Bureau's reply in cable No. 256 of December 12, 191.1,. ihe latter
cable suggested that this office the informant organization theoriginal agreed amount, $2,000. %Q
Following the Bureau: suggestion, the second instalment paid
this informant in December, 1941,, was according to the original agreed
amount , that payment consisting of $1,000. The relationship with this
informant has apparently not been impaired by this attempt to reduce their
pwmente. However, the question whether this office should make up the
amounts paid during that period when the sun to be paid them was being
decided has not been settled; that is, it is undecided whether this
office should pay the infomant #750, representing the difference between
$1,500 and $2,000 during November, 191,4, and $1,750 and $2,000 during
December, 1941,. The infomant understands that this matter is being
decided and advice of e Bureau is requested as to whether this backpayment should be mdew

Dear Sir: u §;j ' »~
Reference is made to my letter to the Bursa t
February 14, 1945, in the-above captioned matter, and s c
attention is drawn to the last paragraph on page two,
set forth contemplated changes in the r
beinsensid to the Basque Organization and
Aid,
As noted in my referenced latte the opin-
ion that the present services rendered by and
the Basque Organization in Colombia do no y e
ment of $250.00 U.S. 36.25 Colombian Pesos! to the Basque '
Organization and an additional 0 Colombian pesos ,
approximately $145.00 U.S.! to or his services
in procuring information. l feel than no value is received v
for the $250 6,25 Colombian pesos! payment which, f
according to is deposited by him to the account 7
of the Basque gs za on in a local Bogota bank, inasmuch ,
as it is used for the maintenance of the Bas us Or nization *ed

On March 4, 1945, advised this officethat he has been confused concerning the agreement reached _}
between himself and this office at the conference of Feb-
ruary 9, 1945, mentioned in my referenced letter, and he new
states that it was his understanding that this office would
continue to make the payment of $250.00 U.S. 56.25 Colom-
bian pesos! to the Basque Organisation, which he believesis a pa t being allotted tocthe Basque Organization by

'7 To date this office has not advised-
enything to the contrary concerning the previous arrangement'7 [!for the payment of $250.00 U.S. 36.25 Colombian pesos! to
the Basque Organization because of the request of Secretary
lBALs of the Basque Organization in New York City, contained
in memorandum dated April 24, 1944, entitled THE BASQUE
ORGANIZATION IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE", which was forwardedto this office under cover of Bureau letter dated May 3, 1944,
and entitled "BASQUE ORGANIZATION", to the effect that The
Basques will be satisfied if the relationship between the
Legal Attaches and the Basques is maintained as though thefunds paid the variou:*¬asques emanated from President AGUIRRE
tar i or tneBe: BASQUE ORGANIZATION; l ix
in the United States.
I G8I1H1EB Dpll THEY VH6services of and the Basque Organization in Colom-
bia are not .00 U.S. 36.25 Colombian pesos! paid
to the organization and mbian pesos approximate-
ly $145.00 U.$.! paid to the reason
for the conference which was he with on February
9, 4 mentioned in my referenced let er. owever, as long
-as is of the opinion that the sum paid to the '
Basque rganization comes from President AGUIRRE in New York
City and not this nffice, any efferts to reduce this amountor convincewthat the present services of the
Basque Organ- a on are not worth this amount fail. It is .
I Qr n- the writer n t the services of the Basque ga
ization an ould be worth $250.00 U.S. in total,
if the suggestions or increased coverage outlined in my
letter of February 14, 1945, materialize. It is believed
h t id that the rvices of . tiv owever, 0 cons er se; himself and not the Basque Orgnisation have1 . al value to this office. It also appears that
is quite content to continue working for this of-* !!oe !!!!out the remuneration of 250 Colombian pesos approx-
imately $l4 U S. resently being paid directly to him.
However, if should go to the United States as is
anticipated, no believed that the services of his re-
placement would be worth 250 pesos approximately $145.00 U.S.!
in addition to the payment of $250.00 U.S. 36.25 Colom ian
pesos! to be paid to the Basque Organisation separately.
Therefore it is requested that this office bepermitted to advisethat the $250.00 u.s. 36.
Colombian pesos! does no n ct originate with President

RE: BASQUE ORGANIZATION;

- _-Q QAGUIRRE in Hes fork C t this offioe believes the /{/
present amounts be t commensurate with the in-
formation received-
_ is a matter of additional information,
has advised that he has received affirmative responses to
letters sent to various Basques throughout Colombia for as-
sistance in the coverage of Communist activities, and it is
believed that better results can and will be obtained in the
future from the Basque Organization throughout Colombia.
Therefore, this office is of the opinion that the tof $250.00 U.S. 36.25 Colombian pesos!, to _nlieu of the payment of 250. pesos approxima . O U.S.!
set forth in my referenced letter, will be justified if the
ooversge throughout Colombia improves as anticipated, and
provided that the payment is made with the definite under-
standing that it originates not from the Basque organization
in Few York City, but from the United States Government and "
is in return for services rendered to this office, ratherthan92¬:r the maintenance of the Basque Crganization in Colom-
bia.
In order that this of eh a satisfactoryand definite understanding with as soon as possible,
it is requested that the Bureau's co ts and instructions
in this regard be forwarded by radio.

Dear $ir,
heference is made to your letter dated January 25,1945
in the above-entitled matt r which advised me that JQse_aptonio,§defgud§Eihand Antonigldexzrala would shortly be coming ea""'""*erance. " F
is is to advise that un April 7 de irala called upon meu
nad advised that both of them had arrived in francs a few days
before and that they had been furnished with my address and tel-
ephone number by special Agent Jerome Doyle in New York ity.
Irala told me that Aguirre was handling mainly political matters
here and in London concerning the Basque people and that at the
conolusidn of his m1ssion,which he did not expect to last for very
» long,he would return to the united tatea. lrala,on the other
hand,will he staying here in Earls and after about two weeks will 5»
to the south of irance where he will stay about two months and then
return to the Western hemisphere. lute 1 gence and realted matterswill be wholly within his jurisdiction}§:
we had a long talk concerning the basque people and
the problems of rascism and @onmunism which confronted them.
already known to you he is strongly opposed to communism and
that if the Allies do not back the truly democratic elements both
in Sapin and in Irance that the majority of the people may,out of
dissatisfaction and discouragement turn to the Uommunist rarty.
At the time of this interview he was also very enthusias c concern-ing the nureau and the way of life in the united Statesqgi
At this time he ale f r i h d t i f &1Q/ o u n s e o me n ormation concerningone?which data 1 have eady made the subject ofs separat -communication to the snreaufét
When irala leaves for the South he is going to put me in
touch with the man who is head of the nasque Services here in raris
who,he assures me,will work with me in the same way that Aguirreand lrala have previously worked with the bureau. Upon his return /,~from the South,and prior to his departure for the United States, -A'
we-will have another series of conferences wherein he will give me /~
the result of his findings on the communist situation here and in

Dear sir: . »
,
_ There are enclosed herewith several items of infoniation
which the local Basque intelligence erfanization has requested the
Bureau to send to its superiors in the United States. These items
have been retained in the office of Legal attache until it vas ros-
sible to sift them and to use them in aporopriate reports. Many
0 _ .92 r C1of the .ttached itans ere cf no interest either to this office or
to the Bureau. i
For the Bureau's information, the Basques are assigned
leads by this office in the sane manner es are other eonfieential
informants, and the results obta red by them are included in inves-
tiative reports in like manner.
Bureau letter dated Segtenber 6, l§Lh~and * zed
as above r iuested this office to send translations of the B 1e
material to the Bureau when such translations vero made by this of-
fice. I an advised that, since the receipt of that letter from the
Bureau, representatives of this office have made an attempt to
translate large portions of the material word for word, whether
such material agpeared to be of interest or not.
Unless advised to the contrary, this office will in the
future send to the Bureau for forwarding to the Basque representa-
tives in the United States only the untranslated material given us
by the Basques in Santiago, except in such cases where the material
would appear to be of unusual and timely interest to the Bureau./bn Eather material of interest will be translated into English by this
{-F -J. ! o--icc anu will thereafter be handled like reports from any other
informants; i.e., it will be incorporated into investigative re- J
-cert: there such is ind ated by the nature of the case and the na- ¢-tire of the informaticnf§§he material which, s f no interest to
_this office o English. or to the Bur,_u will not be trélged i /2 - V Illonnso -,2:///7... 92 _ N x ! _-_
