Kennedy two months be- fore he shot the president, ABC News reports. In a documentary to be broad- cast June 3, ABC News says FBI Di- rector J. Edgar Hoover sent Morris Childs, a member of the Commu- nist Party of the U.S.A., to find out what Castro knew about the assassi- nation. James Hosty, the Dallas FBI agent who was in charge of Oswald's file before the assassina- tion in November 1963, said Childs, code-named Solo, learned of Oswald's contact with officials at the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City. "We know that the so-called 'Solo' source made a trip to Cuba and talked to Castro sometime after the assassination, at which time Castro advised the 'Solo' source that Oswald had told his people, in Mexico City, some weeks before the assassination, that he wanted to kill Kennedy for them," Hosty said. Instead of following up on Childs' report, Hoover relied on re- ports from defector Yuri Nosenko and a double agent, code-named Fedora, who said neither the Sovi- ets nor any other foreign nation was involved in a conspiracy to kill _ Kennedy, the documentary says. source Dallas Morning News - 5/27/82 SOURCE: COMPLETELY USUALLY RELIABLE □ RELIABLE □ UNKNOWN □ INFORMATION: POSSIBLY CANNOT BE CONFIRMED □ TRUE □ JUDGED □ DISTRIBUTION COPIES INVESTIGATION MADE BY: INVESTIGATIVE EXPENSE YES □ NO □ APPROVED BY: POL-OQ486A FILE NUMBER
