6/14/67 memo from Thomas Lund to Mexico City chief of station "Willard"/Win Scott: It would be unfortunate if LIOSAGE (note: Carl Migdail, staffer with the US News & World Report and David Phillips' friend) were to learn that we were privy to his information - in particular, what Scott had said to him. "We have received from a very sensitive source two pages only of a letter (Attachment A) almost certainly by LIOSAGE to his home office reporting of comments he claims made by you." Marginalia apparently written by Scott: "Letter in my personal file." "NOT BY ME." Both comments initialed by "wcc", the initials of his pseudonym Willard C. Curtis.
