Re: L¬ASQUE INTELLIGENCE ORGANIZATION
ADMINISTRATIVE
Dear Sir: ,/_ _
0 'This is to advise that JOSE MARIk6hLASARTE, the head
of the Basque Intelligence Organization in Argentina, will leave
Buenos Aires on July 23, enroute to France. In his journey he
will stop in New York for what he indicated was a period of twoto three weeks?§§L
The question of the work being performed by the Basque
Intelligence Organization has been discussed several times recently
with Mr. LA$ARTE. It will be noted that this office is paying
this organization $2,000.00 U.S. per month and it has been felt
that the volume of information which has been submitted by this
group, while valuable, has not been sufficient to justify this
large monthly payment. Er. LASARTE has said that he realizes
this fact and that one of the principal reasons for his visit to
New York is to discuss this matter with his superiors and tc
formulate a plan for the reorganization of their service in
Argentina. He says that during the past year they have never
known whether or not their services were going to be continued and
they have hesitated to make a complete reorganization, bringing
in additional personne1,because of the fact that the Bureau might
at any minute dispense with their services. He also said that
during the war the contacts which the agents th
npresent have
in Argentina primari concer ed wi
xi wLhmade were

It is suggested that if and when this plan for reorgani-
zation is submitted to the Bureau,§@hat the Bureau give considera-
tion to paying the Basques through their headquarters in New York.
In Argentina there is a great deal of difficulty in obtaining
large amounts of Argentine pesos because of local currency regu-
lations and it would facilitate the workings of this office if
this could be accomplished. It is suggested that if this is
done the amount gaid the Basques monthly could¢@e,deducted fromthe office advance of the Buencs Aires office.]§ ?

Home to us. Ladd
which we are utilizing the services of this organization, has been under
close observation and at the present time it is felt that we should out our
payments to them by fifty per cent 0%!. The approximate totals of payments
set forth below indicate shat is being paid monthly in each of thsss soun=tries for salaries and expenses:§§Q
Colombia $400.00 -1 I
$750.00$100.00 B.Mexico
Chile
Cuba $350.00
RECOMMENDATION:
In view of the fact that the Bureau's SIS program is being
brought to a close, it is felt that we should definitely not encourage the
Basques to bring any more employees into Argetina. I believe we should
inform them that our entire program is being curtailed because of peace-
time conditions and requirements, and that we are unable to estimate at
this time how long we will need their services. Since we are still receiv-
ing information of value from the "asque Organization in Argentina, it would
appear advisable to reduce the monthly payments to them to $1,000.00 at the
present time, with the thought in mind that this might further be reduced inzthe near future. I think that the Basque Organization will agree to thisjg!
, is for the other countries listed above, I believe we should
ilimediately advise the Basque headquarters QQJNQI York City of the necessity
92[of reducing our payments by fifty per cent.§§k

Reference is made to my memoranda of August 29, 1946 and Septembei:3, 19
discussing the future relations with the Basque Intelligence Organization. You wii
recall that we have been using the Basques as informants in a number of South Amer
countries. You were advised that our Buenos Aires Office had requested authorizat:
to discontinue the services of'§he Basque organization there, and to stop the mont
payment of two thousand dollars which has been made to the Basques in the pest. I
recommended that the services of the Basques be discontinued in Euenos Aires and U
in other countries where ey are being used, the Legal Attaches be instructed toreduce payments to themIi§C92
The New York SIS representative was instructed to advise Basque headquar
in New York of the Bureau's action with the explanation that this step was necessa
in view of peacetime conditions and requirements and because our continued stay in
South America is now on a temporary basis.

We have now been informed by the New York SIS represégtétiledtggt e
discussed this matter with Mr. Antonio/Trala, Secretary of the Basque organization
Mr. Irala stated he was very sorry to learn that the Bureau is curtailing its work
in South America and requested that, should the Bureau find it necessary to discon'
entirely its relations with the Basque organization in countries other than Argent
he be given as long a period of notice as possible. He explained that he desired'notice in order gprevent the disorganization of his intelligence service as it e

Nease dated November 14, lQ58, which recommended that bulky
exhibit 64-2311 - 26 be reviewed and decision rendered as to 9 3
.retention or disposition of material contained therein.
Bulky consists of roll of film and photographs of 44
pages of material apparently in the Spanish language, and photo-
§?ph$ af three envelopes= These photographs were prepared from
three envelopes qf reports of the Basque Intelligence Organization
in Buenos Aires, Argentina, addressed to Sr. Don Jbse Antonio de
Aguirre, 30 fdfth Avenue, New York City,and were submitted to the
Bureau by Legat, Buenos Aires 5-9-46 with request that Bureau deliver
the three envelopes to Aguirre at the Basque Delegation in New York
in accordance with previous arrangements made with the Basque group
in the United States.
The Laboratory translated the material, pertinent data
was summarized, indexed, and retained in the main case file. The
Laboratory, by letter to.Legag Buenos Aires 6-3-46, advised that
non-staining treatment revealed no secret ink on specimens and
cryptanalytic examination of specimens revealed no code or cipher.
The Laboratory indicated the material would be delivered to the
Basque Delegation in New York per.Legat's request.
The exhibit itself was never indexed, there is no obli-
gation to return, and of no foreseeable use to the Bureau.
