"There are two documents that clinch the case for the (Wesley B. Enzel)-Smith identification. The 19 July meetings in Miami left Lorie's dissident group hanging in the wind and, while Droller was busy with the FRD in New York (20-22 July), Loire was suffering from 'anxiety caused by an alleged loss of contact with Jim Smith.' Loire and his group assumed that 'they had been dumped'. So, on 23 July, Droller called Lorie to reassure him that this was not the case, and that 'Smith' had taken some time off to be with his family. Droller told Lorie that thought was being given to making a 'unilateral arrangement' with his group'. Droller put this information in a cable for JMASH on 25 July 1960, and also asked the based to have Smith contact Lorie 'soonest' to reassure him the matter was 'not fully settled yet'. Two days later (27 July) JMASH referenced the HQS cable (DIR 41508 - 104-10193-10119), and reported that Enzel had resumed 'daily contact with the QDCOVE/Lorie group'. These two cables, therefore, prove that Enzel is another name for Jim Smith."
