104-10414-10124: MEXICO CITY STATION HISTORY

LICASA-1 provided Soviet bloc information to the Mexico City station, starting in 1958. A large portion of it was Cuban. He provided files for review to Scott and several other officers. At their first meeting six rolls of 100-foot microfilm were used to copy the files. Oliver Scantling entered this operation as a cutout for Scott from 1962 to 1969. When the LICASA production was compared with that from similar collection resources, it was rated "among the most valuable". The agent was only met once a month.
