0, FRENCH COLLABORATIONIST MOMENT;

• 9, After the French-Germ= Armistice,* GARRETT; feel-ing the shock and disillusiorunent following the defeat ofthe Frenoh Armies, resolved that the German occupation wouldbe a long one and that the benefits gained from compromisewould greatly outweigh the inconveniences and hardshipswhich would result from personal participation in Izmir.rection or passive resistance. Therefore, GARRITTE becamean enthusiastic member of the French Collaborationist Wove...ment in 1940, favoring a smooth workable relationshipbetween the French and German peoples,

10. GARRETTE advanced from a mere Delegate for theDepartment of KIM to President of the Group in NIMES: Atthe end of 1941, RAM joined the Group and ONMI became hisclose personal friend: Later HAM became the latter's per.sonal secretary and looked after the admiaistration of twoXowish properties in MIMES for which GARRICl/31 was respon.Bible.

11, Both GARRETE and HAM say that they received nopersonal benefits from the administration. They admit thathuge profits * however, were realized from the constructionof wooden barracks for the German Command, even though itwas necessary to bribe the German Military authorities forthese contracts:

GARRETTE and RAON, knowing that they would be quickly cam.damned by a Trenoh court (if not executed by the Msquis)decided to escape to Germany in August 1944.

15, The German Embassy invited both to live at theBrenner Park Hotel in BADEN...BADEN as *honored guests ofthe Reich". This offer was refused in order to maintaina certain independence of movectomt.

16. On 1 September 1944 * Subjects travelled to CON*STANCE and, on reeeipt_of an invitation from Ambassadiar OttoAMETZ. journeyed to SWUM/Wig, where the seat of the newTrench Gov/dnment was being,prepared.

introduced him to the First Counsellor of the Embassy*Viscount siorATcHI MOTaNO, SQU Of an eromminister of Iapan.

56„ With the Allied advance * MOTONO went to EIEG...MAR.INGEN and was subsequently transferred to the Embassyin BERLIN, In BERLIN he was in charge of the Radio pro..paganda department. Id3T0NO was particularly qualifiedfor this work as he possesses sze, extraordinary knowledgeof languages and European culture.,

37, During conversations with GARRITTE* MOTONOseverely criticized Germ:Rimy and the Nazi Party * deploringthe excessive heaviness of the Nazi servioes* particularlythe diplcimatie corps. MOTONO t s feelings were based onwhat he termed HITIGER's *error of judgment* in attackingRussia instead of negotiating with it intelligently.

38. NOTONO expressed a geat personal interest inintelligence subjects to GARRT E, offering him*, on Tariousoccasions* the opportunity to conduct espionage on behalfof the Zap IS, WTONO desired intelligence concerning move..manta of the English and Mariann Navies, He suggested -toGARRETTE one day that a group of French youths be recruitedand trained for sending into Frenoe and 8pain to gather ine.formation on maritime traffic This information he neededfor preparing statistics on Allied merchant tonnage.

39• GARRETTE cordially refused all offers of servicewith the Zap 18 but took great pains to maintain friendlyrelations with MOTONO and other mambera of the TapaneseEmbassy in Berlin..

GARRNITE and HAON. Recent captures by the DSM of agentslisted in our 7721510 of 21 Zane 1945 oonfirm that GARRETTEheaded the espionage school in WIERSBURG.

49. It is difficult to evaluate GARRITTEt s reportedrelations with the Japanese; whether these were purelypolitical or whether the invitation to join their IS isfactual. Our records indicate that both SATO and MOITONOwereummbers of the dap Eabassy in VICHY and later servedin BERLIN. The same source confirms that MOTONO was inBAD GASTRIN in April of this year, It is interesting tonote that the introductory card given to GARRITTE is apersonal calling-card of MOTONO and the message itself iswritten in fluent japanesea This tends to prove that thecard itself is genuine*

50* There is a variation between GARRITTE's state..ment of what the card says and the translation made by thisoffice, GARRETTE states SIMON° 'cotes To All daPaileseBabassiesi The bearer of this card is a most trustworthyman who should be used to our advantage," Our translationreads: rfo Whomsoever in the Ziabassyt I pre gent the.

• bearer of this card to discuss a matter concerning Preach-Manchurian relations."

51. It will be necessary to conduct further cross.interrogations of GARR:21n and BAON to determine if therendering given by GARBIRTE indicates a -deliberate falai.fioation of the text in order to reader himself attractiveand valuable to the Americans as a double.-agenta It Is believed that further interrogation will clarify this point.

52. GARRZTTE is a man of pleasant personality ' and ofunusual self-aasuraace. For the present, however, he isin great fear of his life and professes that he will do any,.thing to escape a transfer to French jurisdiction, From apsychological point of view, he appears 49 possess the stabi-lity and imagination which are necessary in a SuooesSfaldouble-agent. The past years of political life have subject-ed him to many contacts and experiences which he appears tohave handled with Still and insight, turning the particularsituation to personal advantage and, with the exception ofCol, BIM-LER* increasing his circle of influential friends.

T. PLAN CAESAR*

54m On the basis of present interrogation GIRT"possesses the necessary qualifications for a promising IVA:

a. He has presumably the trust and confidenceof the ;el, IS.

b. All information disolosed is confirmed :ramavailable aources.

Oil With our aid he can enter a n.eutrat countryand has the necessary ooVerwstory tad back*,ground to contact members of the jap Intbeiesy-4?

d. GARRETT"- is psyohologioally stable * haability and initiative, villieh should enahim to develop end maintain a firstwolasspenetrations part:to:laxly because his ointfuture and interests depend on a sucoessfUlmission*

55. A well—conceived plan should render any or all ofthe following advantages over the Japanese:-

a. A penetration of their espionage setup inSpain and Switzerland* including discoveryof any Zap IS contacts in the Vatican*

b.. An opportunity to build up independentnistional networks in Italy and in neutralcountries working into the S'ap Service*Possit,d.lity of creating oontrolledlliTtratitas to the Zaps as well as opening achannel to their Service for the passage offorged documen.ts • which may in to= be passedby the ;ap W/T control in unbroken ciphersto TORO. The clear- text and the newly ens,ciphered intercepted text would aid our nilpeople to break important traffies*

56. No detailed plan can be given until authority isfirst received permitting the employment of GAMOW" andthe sealing off of HAON and LEVaS. With authorization topreeeeds this office will work out t withhe details wi GAR.." :RME h.im.self, whose methods of action and other character*.istics must necessarily shape the nature of the operation*thereby defining its limitations and scope.

40 spittle .- c,04isas'in.

57, It will not be difficult to manufacture a goodcover-story for GARRETTE based essentially on the truth*GARRNME can freely relate his travels from Germany toMILAN. In MILAN he p erceived that the French authoritieswere arresting members of the ME.E2SBURG School and, thera..;fore* knowing that he was *blown% his first inclinationwas to escape to Switzerland* This course of action hequickly abandoned.. having noted the strong frontier controlexercised by the Allies, and implemented by partisan brii=gades4

58. His only choice, therefore, was to make for theSouth, where there was a better, chance to evade oapt4reityobtaining aid from anti-de Gaullists or Fascists in. 'the

area* He also entertained the idea of contaoting:theSpanish or Zap Minister to the Holy See for aid to eves**ually reach Spain. Bribing &Negro truck driver, he. wastaken during the night to ROME where he remained hidden ina local pension.

59* It may be worthwhile for GARR:WU :to factuallypresent himself to a member-of-the Zap-Legation to-Ihiat_Holy See to test the effects of liOT0W7a . latter 0324.:W,request aid and instructions, - if not tAmporery sanatua**If the contact were successful, it may be possible torAIMto obtain Tapers or even a Vatican passport to eaterApiitor Switzerland. Furthermore, if communication existsbetween the Zap Legation to the Holy See and its dipIt00.matte representativea in Spain or Switzerland. a comtUnica..tion from the dap Minister would serve to build up GAR44MU** bonafides4 Any time la in the ***ter ...story =tad beattributed to the delay in ROME in discovering a means tocontact the Tap Minister discreetly * •

60* Another alternative which may prove most advam-tageous is to arrange the introduction of GARRATTE to thisUnit's agent W004, a most trasted Italian police of..ficial who has worked closely With this office for a longperiod (during which time he has personally been respon.,sible for the apprehension of over 30 enemy agents)..W004 has spent many. years of his life in France andspeaks French fluently. By making him an old friend ofGARBETTE who has always leaned towards the Fascist Partyand is strongly anti-de Gaulle JX/004 could serve asthe reason for GARRIZTE i s coming to ROML This wouldsolve the problem of false documents easily available to

a/004 as well as such matters as board and room languagedifficulties, etc.. a/004's actual presence in Lan mightserve another purpose in the event the future developmentof the plan necessitates a contact within easy reach ofthe Zapanese Minister to the Holy See.

61. Depending on the Choice of countries for GAR*RETTE's future work - e.g. Switzerland or Spain - the fol.lowing. slternatiVes aregresented4 By going factually toNAPLAS and Making inquiries as to employment on shipstouching Spain, GARRETTE Can gain first.hand knowledge orthe diftioultiea in leaving Italy .for abroad.. ShouldAig

-destination be Spain, this office will attempt to make thenecessary arrangements for his departure If the destinaa,tion ie to be Switzerland, through the aid of the ZapMinister to the Holy See or a/004, the trip to NAPLES isunnecessary except for the purpose of giving factual bado..ground color to Sublect which Ae can convincingly relateto the Zaps in the Tatiocc„ Switzerland or Spain.

624, GARRETTE's trip to Switzerland should be_ regardedmerely as a contact point Whereby he can gain an entreelin.--:to the Tap service relating .40.t he has seen AmNAPLES harbor as his first information, In Switzerland..this Unit t s representative could pass to GARREME a siiit;*able I)/A to be introduced by him into the Zap IS WhOl.loving GARRETTEts departure for Spain or Italy, can be uiedto instigate a separate penetration of the Tap IS in SvitZer-land.

63. There is a possible ad7mntage that in going toSwitzerland GARRETTl_might encounter one of his Iapanesefriends from BpL1N Who vduld vouch for his bonafide-withno loss of time, giving GARRETTE the necessary entree.

64, The' Xap Service in Switzerland may betion to facilitate GARRETTE's passage to Spain,the moans available to them. Failing this, havipenetration plan under the control of our Swisstive, GARRETTE could make his way back to Italyattempt to arrange his departure from NAPLES oning at some Spanish port.

By factually enlisting TE/004 not only as GAR.RATTE's friend but as an ardent anti-de Gaullist and Fas-cist in great need of money, it would be possible to have;K/004 equipped with a WtT in ROME ready to transmit.Wherever GARRETTE made his effeotive contact with the ZapIS, he could state that PI/004 possessed a transmitterfrom the Fascist days and would signal at five-day inters.vale on agreed frequencies to establish a oontaot. Thiswould offer us the opportunity to build up in Italy anotional network for Amore intensive penetration of theTap networks This ir/T oontaot Gould also be developed as a.controlled link between the Zap Legation to the Vatican andits Legation abroad, if other W/T communication does notexist, J1/004's presence and participation in the plan woridoffer GARRATTE an excuse to serve as courier for colleotingdocuments, microfilms or for the bringing of funds necessaryfor XK/004. 0 notional network.

67. there is so muoh to gain in the execution ofthis plan, it is submitted that no deception should be in.jected into the channels of oommunication in order thatthe enemy regard GARRATTE with the greatest confidence.This Unit, as well as our representatives in Spain andSwitzerland, is in a position to develop the individualcontacts with the Zap IS, supplying the necessary Intel..ligenoe and "highf-grade" documents to induce the Zap ISto transmit in unbroken ciphers verbatim the text of dom..ments supplied through our penetration.
