A New York Herald Tribune despatch from Washington on October 25th reported that more agents of the F.B.I. have been sent to the Latin American countries to augment the U.S. intelligence activities there. Sources in ‘Washington confirmed that "Johnson has directed the F.B.I. into at least eight key Latin American cities and that agents of the C.I.A. "will continue to operate" as they have done in the past. The C.I.A. has been "authorised to carry out covert operations - invasions, armed infiltration, secret support of opposition to regimes", the report stated. It pointed out that Johnson's decision to despatch more F.B.I. agents there was aimed at augmenting the activities of the C.I.A. "More than a score of F.B.I. agents were ordered into Santo Domingo by Mr. Johnson during the crisis last May", it added.
