Mr .JkAKEY. The committee has also triedMs. Y to no avail.
The committee also sought to interview another individualwas employed in th e Cuban Embassy in 1963. Although th e
view had been prearranged, he left Mexico City suddenly th e daycommittee investigators arrived, and returned the day they werescheduled to depart.
The investigators, having decided to stay an extra day, contactedthe former employee by phone, but he refused to speak with them .The committee has learned that Mexican authorities had been 'requested not to allow the committee investigators to interview theemployee.
Members of the Duran family were questioned about ElenaGarro's allegations. They denied that they socialized with the
people she said were at their party, although Sylvia Duran didrecall that Elena herself may have been at one or two parties ather home in the fall of 1963. Sylvia Duran denied that Oswald had
beenJhere.,Another Mexican has claimed to have been in contact with
Oswald in Mexico City. Oscar Contreras Lartique told an American
foreign service officer (not Charles Thomas) in 1967 that as a/student at th e University of Mexico in 1963 he had met Oswald as
/ he was leaving a roundtable discussion at th e School of Philosophy.; Contreras, who described Oswald as "strange and introverted,"
• said he spent the rest of the day, that night and part of thefollowing day with Oswald and some other students. He saidOswald told them he had come to th e university looking for proCastro students who might help persuade the Cuban Embassy togrant him a visa. Oswald told them, Contreras said, that he wasfrom California and was a member of a pro-Castro organization inNew Orleans.
Contreras was later reinterviewed by American authorities. Herefused to identify other students who had met Oswald, because he
said they were still active revolutionaries. Contreras stated thatoriginally Oswald was suspected of being an American intelligenceagent, that he never mentioned President Kennedy or assassination, and that he repeatedly expressed a wish to ge t to Cubapromptly.
Mexican authorities have reported to the committee that therewas indeed an Oscar Contreras Lartique registered at the University of Mexico in 1960, but not in 1963. They also reported that OscarContreras had once signed a manifesto written by a pro-Castrostudent group, but that the group ceased to function in 1962.
Nevertheless, th e committee placed some significance in Contreras' story because it has been learned that a professor from th eUniversity of Mexico held philosophy seminars at the Duran home.The philosophy professor, a close friend of th e Durans, was a wellknown Marxist at th e university.
The committee tried to arrange an interview with Contrerasthrough Mexican officials, but when its investigators arrived, Contreras disappeared.
In summation, Mr. Chairman, I must frankly state that th ecommittee
has,with
the exceptionof
certainwitnesses made
avail-able by the Cuban and Mexican Governments, largely been frus-

in its attempts to investigate the nature of Lee Harveyactivities andpossible associates in Mexico City through
interviews with those persons who purportedly have first-
knowledge of such matters.only other theoretical possibility for resolving these issuescourse, physical evidence, either documents or photographs.regard, the Cuban Government has suggested that photo
friiphic evidence should exist, at least as to Oswald's alleged visitsCuban consulate in Mexico City. Such photographs might
include, of course, th e identities to th e companions, if any,
were with him on those occasions.. .. , fact, the Cuban Government has provided several photos to
committee. They are reflected in JFK F-438 which, Mr. Chairroan, I ask be displayed and entered into the record at this point.f Chairman STOKES. Without objection it may be entered into the
record at this point.. [The information follows:]
