Concur your assessment re likelihood JMDEVIL will take on renewed importance in view Copei election victory and may become problem target for WOFIRM (CIA), believe both AMICE-31 (Reinaldo Pico Ramon) and FUBABE-1 worth consideration as JMDEVIL penetrations. 2. Per para 2 ref, we recall that staffer Louis J. Sockwell, former Caracas C/O who now Santiago, contacted either Garcia or Planas or both in 1965 but that relationship did not prosper.

Person making contact could use name 'Mr. Johns' which was alias used by former JMWAVE C.O...4. Defer to HQs for latest info on FUBABE-1 and his present relationship with JMDEVIL. Most recent info in station 201 is almost two years old. Suggest HQs relay DIRECTOR cables 82534 and 76996 (11 March and 17 Feb 67 respectively) to Caracas for good background and assessment FUBABE-1. WH/Miami could probably find out current status and address FUBABE-1 through AMICE-34, only labor/CO type with whom we still in touch, but we reluctant indicate renewed interest if HQs already has this info on file. Station will happily try re-contact FUBABE if Caracas and HQs so desire..."

Rubash also commented on FUBABE-1 (201-278135), Eduardo Garcia Moure (201-766813), and Jose de Jesus Plana (201-275947). Said FUBABE was part of AMICE (FORDC, Frente Obrero Revolucionario Democratico Cubano) complex who more capable than A-31 (Reinaldo Pico Ramon). FUBABE was secretary to Maspero in Chile and considered quite-favored disciple of Maspero...8. FUBABE-1 granted POA 25 Aug 64 to work with Chilean branch of Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil in its anti-Castro CA activities. OA granted 2 Nov 64 for consideration to use subject as funding channel to Christian Democratic leaders for congressional elections, and for prop purposes.
