FBI Reports on Oswald and FPCC

[William Kelly]

As Robert Howard pointed out in another thread, this State Dept. guy read three reports on Oswald before the assassination, the October 10, 1963 cable from Mexico City CIA, and two FBI reports, one from October 25, 1963 on the FPCC in New Orleans and October 31, 1963 report on Oswald in New Orelans.

PRESIDENT'S COMMISSION

ON THE ASSASSINATION OF AFFIDAVIT

PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, ss:

James D. Crowley, being duly sworn, deposes and says:

On August 13, 1961, he was duly appointed an officer in the Department of State, as a specialist in intelligence matters; that he has continued to serve in that capacity since that time, and that he has personal knowledge of the matters related in this affidavit:

1. I am one of the officers in the Department of State responsible for disseminating throughout the Department various reports, memoranda and documents which are received from other United States Government agencies.

2. The first time I remember learning of Oswald's existence was when I received copies of a telegraphic message, dated October 10, 1963, from the Central Intelligence Agency, which contained information pertaining to his current activities. I requested that a search of the Office of Security records be made on October 11, 1963, to determine if the Department had received any information previously. Based on a quick review of the Office of Security file on Oswald, I disseminated copies of the Central Intelligence Agency message to the various offices within the Department which were interested in receiving this type of material.

3. I also briefly reviewed Oswald's Office of Security file on November 14, 1963. Although I am not certain, I believe the impetus for this review was either my receipt of a Federal Bureau of Investigation report dated October 31, 1963 on Lee Harvey Oswald or my receipt of a Federal Bureau of Investigation report dated October 25, 1963 on the Fair Play for Cuba Committee New Orleans Division. Both of these reports were received in the Intelligence Processing Section on November 8, 1963.

4. In both instances, I reviewed the Office of Security file in a routine manner and had it returned to the Office of Security File Room the same day in which it was charged to me.

Signed this 12th day of June 1964.

(S) James D. Crowley,

JAMES D. CROWLEY.

The October 31, FBI report is most likely the 20 page Kaack Report:

Commission Document 12 - FBI Kaack Report of 31 Oct 1963 re: Oswald/Russia

While the October 25 report is the one by Warren C. De Brueys (Sic De Vrueys), there is only a one page reference to it, but the actual report appears to be missing.

Or am I missing something? - BK
