Reurlet 3/31/64 and letterhead memorandum (LPN), same date,
dealing with revelations of Herbert Voorhees.
ReLHM is not fit to be furnished to Commission. Note
statement in second paragraph,' page two, that Voorhees departed from
Mexico by Greyhound bus is incorrect. Fifth paragraph, page two, is
not clear. Spell out exactly what you mean. Second paragraph, page
three. re travel from San Luis Potosi to Nuevo Laredo and to Laredo
is not clear and appears inaccurate in view of Voorhee
s' bus charge
in Monterrey. Statement, same paragraph, that "he alone left the
bus" is not clear and this action is stated otherwise in second para-
graph, page five. Last paragraph, page four, refers to U. S. Customs
station at Nuevo Laredo. Is this in Nuevo Laredo or Laredo? State-
ment, same paragraph, about young American standing
at U. S. Customs
station appears at variance with Voorhees' statement that he felt
certain the American stayed on the bus and with his comments that the
rican and other passengers stayed on the bus at Laredo to proceed
.11- to San Antonio or other points. Note in this regard that Laredo was
tination of del Porte bus from which point it presumably returned
3 m tg Monterrey.
2 .74 .1 o In addition to foregoing factors, note that reLHM is poorly
or anized and is replete with grammatical errors and clumsy writing.

The underlined portions are blanks which had been •
completed in ink.
Following the list of passengers is the notatior:
"9 Laredo, 7 Monterrey." •
The names of those above who listed their destination
as Laredo were searched through the files of Central Office,
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), Washington, D.C.,
on March 31, 1964,in an attempt to locate persons possibly
identical with those listed on the bus manifest.
The bus manifest contains the name Constantino
Garcia in two places.
On March 31, 1964, at the Central Office of INS,
Washington, D. C., Mr. Abe Krichefsky, Contact Representative,
furnished the following information to Investigative Clerk (IC)
Dennis E. Addington, from 1-94 forms (Arrival-Departure record.
for nonimmigrant) concerning one Constantino Garcia-Morales,
born March 11, 1912, Mexico,D. F., Mexico.
One 1-94 form indicated that he was admitted to the
United States at Laredo, Texas, on October 3, 1963, on a B-2
visa (temporary visitor for pleasure), admitted until
October 4, 1963. The visa was issued October 1, 1963,at
Mexico, D. F., Mexico. Be had passport number 57581 and his -
United States address was listed as Laredo, Texas. His - -.-
permanent address was listed as Tempoala 51-5, Col.
Independencia, Mexico, D. F., Mexico. The reverse side of
this same 1-94 form bore a stamp of E. DeWitt M (not,
legible), Attache, American Embassy, Mexicq, D. 1?., Mexico,
and contained a written notation under this stamp which Mr.
Krichefsky said meant the Attache indicated on October 8,
1963 that Garcia-Morales departed the United States at
Laredo on October 4, 1963. '
•
- - Another form indicated he was admitted to the
H
United States at Laredo, Texas, on October 24, 1963 on a
3-2 visa issued October 1, 1963 at Mexico,D. F. Mexico,

FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION
WASHINGTON, D. C.
Resubmission of Q332 (Transportes Frontera bus company passenger
list covering a trip
made by bus No. 340 from Mexico City to Laredo, Texas, 10/2-3/63,
bearing the name "Oswald" in the space for seat No. 4)
K73 A form of Transportes Frontcra bus line used as a passenger
manifest, reservations and ticket sales record, on which the
date "2 Oct 19G3" has been stamped with the date stamp used
by the ticket salesman of that company at the Mexico City
terminal, FRANCISCO ALVARADO
K74 One block of forms for Transportes Frontera bus line which
allegedly were used in connection with the operations of
that company during most of the month of October, 1963
Result of examination:
The date stamp impressions on 173 are similar in size
and style to the questioned impressions at the bottom of Q332
but the 173 impressions have a different spacing between the
"T" in "OCT" and the "1" in "1963" which indicates a different
date stamp was used. The date stamp impressions on £74 are
similar in size, style, and spacing to the questioned impressions
on Q332 but these questioned impressions lack sufficient
significant details to definitely establish whether the same
rubber stamp was used on £74 and Q332.
The handwriting, format and appeazance of the block
of manifests, £74, agree.- with the handwriting, format and
appearance of Q332. In addition indented writings and extraneous
-,I... marks were noted on Q332 which indicate that this sheet was
1:1...st _originally on top of the present top sheet in 174.
No indentations were found on the present top sheet_
174 which correspond: to the writing in black ink onihe

GARCIA and advised that the correct name of the Chief of the
Mexican Tmmigration station at Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas,
Mexico, is GILBERTO CAZARES GARZA, He acknowledged that.
his use of the name "GILBERTO CAZA4S PEREZ" in his report -f
of investigation concerning OSWALD (a translation of which
was submitted to the Bureau by letterhead memorandum dated
3/16/64) had been a mental lapse on his part.

believed to have been on this bus and, therefore,tblehas been inEe
doubt as to the authenticity of the manifest.Mexico City has located
the padded block of manifeststkozvehich Q 332 was apparently torn.
Laboratory states that indented writings and other extraneous marks
on the questioned manifest and on the top sheet in the pad of manifests
indicates the questioned manifest TM origilnally on top of the present top sheet in the pad. It is of interest that Laboratory has found on
the present top page of the pad fragmentary indented writing on 16 out
of 19 lines in the body of the manifest. One of the lines in which
there is no observable indented writing is the line with the entry
"Oswld." Other writings on this manifest by the mar who rade this
entry show indentations on the present top sheet of the v.d. rbile
an examination of this sort cannot conclusively establish that the
"Oswld" entry was written after the manifest was torn from the pad and, therefore, probably after the assassination, the examination
nevertheless, shows that such could have been the case.

Efforts are being made to locate and interview

Bus Line reservations list containing the name of
"WWW." This reservations list contained the names
of nine persons destined for Laredo, Texas, who would have arrived in Lare on October 3, 1963.
Mt. FREDERICK MAINE GER, Supervisor,, Quarantine Inspector, V. S. Public Health Service, _Laredo, Texas; furnished the vaccination log for -August 23 through November 23, 1963. The vaccination log maintained by the U. S. Public Health Service is a
log containing the names of persons vaccinated by the
U. B. Public Health Service at Laredo; and, upon being
vaccinated, the person is supposed to sign the - •
vaccination log.
The names of all persons on the Transportes
Frontera Bus Lines reservations list containing the name of "OSWLD" were checked in the vaccination log under the date of October 3, 1963, and the only name
appearing in the vaccination log that could be identical

• Allow me to set forth the following:
Seven people masterminded the assassination of President Kennedy on November 22, 1963, in Valles.
In addition, two men were assigned tc.protection duties should the attempt be unsuccessful.
Of course, the actual perpetrators of the assassination of President John P. Kennedy were two. One was Lee Nazar Oswald and the other Jack Ruby.
Jack Ruby was to take over in case Lee Bane Oswald should miss the target oirieported to the police before accomplishing his assignment.

The airmail envelope is addressed to Jr. Robert rrancis Kennedy, Attorney General, White House (sic), Washington, (D. C.), United States of America. It bears the postmark of 11 Salvador, dated March 23, 1964.

In this case, Jack Ruby would have fired on the
President with a revolver.
Of course they were paid by the seven men who are
the true killers of President John F. Kennedy, assassinated
in a most barbaric fashion.
By their cowardly and revolting assassination of
President John I, Kennedy, they caused the prestige of the
United States to suffer another scandalous blow.
The defenders of Jack Ruby are paid by the seven
son who mastermindod the assassination of President Kennedy.
Melvin Belli, who is a bought man, is also involved
in the assassination of President John Y. Kennedy.
Dear Sr. Robert Francis Kennedy, if you accept to
have a public exposure of the seven men who are responsible
for the horrible and cowardly assassination of your btother,
John F. Kennedy, you can send your reply to this Rouse, No.
1604, Barrio San liguelito, San Salvador, Central America.
This is San Salvador Nail Souse Jo. 1004.
These seven men who masterminded President Kennedy's
assassination are plotting another crime because they know
that they have managed to remain undiscovered. Also this
grime is being planned against the Kennedy family.
The killers of President Kennedy are Americans.
In addition to these seven, there are other who are involved
tea lesser extent.
In my second message to you, I will give you details
of the parts from where the assassination of President
John F. Kennedy was planned" (sic).

ReBuairtel to Legat, Mexico, and San Antonio dated
4/6/64 and Legat, Mexico, letter to Bureau and LHM dated
3/31/64. --, .1
. Both rcifere ed airtel and letter raised the question
that AGAPITO DEL/ of San Antonio-, Texas, may be identical
with the "Mexi -American" who sat across the aisle from
HERBERT R. VOORHEES on Del Norte bus trip, Me.xico, D. F., to ,:j
ss=1 Laredo, Texas, 10/2-3/63. , i
The San Antonio office is of the opinion that AGAPITO
DEL RIO is definitely not identical with the "Mexican-American"
(supra) for the following reasons:
1. AGAPITO DEL RIO, during interview, advised that he
is 70 years of age.
He is approximately 5 ft. 4 in. tall and weighs about
150-160 pounds. His build is described as stocky. His face
is round. In this regard, referenced LHM describes "Mexican-
American" as middle-aged, thin faced, tall, and slim.

Re: Angel.-Perez
It will be recalled that a manifest of the bus line
Transporter Frontera allegedly for a bus trip from Mexico City
to Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, on October 2,3, 1963, contained
among other names that of Angel Perez, Seat Number 13. No
destination was indicated for him nor vas a ticket number
listed.
On Aor;1 1, 1964, through cooperation of John W. Lewis,
Supervisor, Eater Index Unit, Central Office, Immigration and
Naturalization Servic, a search ‘as made of all records of
temporary visitcr.s from Leni.co (1-94 Forms), also all records
of such nonimmigrant visitors who were in the category of
"overstays", also all cz.rds in master index, under the name of
Angel Perez. It iF estimated that somewhat in excess of 3,000
cards were examined and no record was located for al. entry of a
Mexican citizen named Angel Perez who entered the United States
at Laredo, Texas, on October 3,4, and 5, 1963, or November 2, 1963.
This master index also includes aliens who have become naturalized
