a ®TOP SECRET DIRECTOR'S LOG 4TE OF DATE 8:30 AM,10 Oct. - 8:30 AM, 11 Oct. )CUMENT RECEIVED FROM TO SUBJECT - - -CTION OPC CIA has infomed the Department of State that it- would consider the maintenance of a Tibetan group abroad of questionable usefulness if the Dalai Lama remains in Tibet and, accordingly, that CIA could make no commitments regarding any such group. Twenty-one Albanian agents, including'several W/T operators, are being flown from CIA's covert training school in Germany to Athens. It is expected they will be infiltrated into Albania immediately following their arrival in Greece. Twenty-six additional Albanian recruits will be sent to Germany for training on the return flight. OSO In meeting OSO's candidate for assignment to the Embassy in Warsaw, Ambassador to Poland Joseph Flack and Mr. Harold Vedeler, of the State Department, raised more difficulties than had previously appeared with respect to his cover position... OSO.participants in the conversation now feel that State will not willingly accept an OSO assignment to Warsaw, even though the candidate himself seemed to make a good personal impression.. An S/W message from Poland reports that the Polish Government will expel representatives of the American Scantic Lines from Poland on 1 December. This action will deprive OSO of the services of a contract agent who -has been in that area for the past nine months. Ambassador to Belgium Murphy views favorably an OSO/Brussels suggestion that CIA assign an officer to assist M. Woot de Trixhe, of the Belgian Security Servicej in revamping his organization. Although the suggestion has not been broached to him, the OSO Station Chief feels that M. oot de Trixhe would.be receptive to it in view of glaring defects disclosed during the recent government investigation of the Charleroi office of his Service.
