instance, German refugee Karl Frank, alias Paul Hagen, was investigated
by the FBI in 1945. His internal security case confirmed that Hagen was a
communist and active in a communist front group, New Beginning.
According to Herbert Romerstein who studied the Venona Files:
One [unsolved murder] involves the disappearance, in Barcelona during
the Spanish Civil War, of Mark Rein, son of the exiled Russian Menshevik
Rafail Abramovich. Rein was associated with Scandinavian social
democracy when he vanished in wartime Catalonia. His case is one of a
short list of unsolved atrocities alleged against the Soviet secret police on
Spanish Republican territory. According to Romerstein, Rein may have
been betrayed to Stalin's agents by a German leftist named Paul Hagen. A
footnote discloses that sources on the Rein affair may be found in the
German Communist Party Archives.
Most of this document was withheld until 1998 when it was “Released in Full” except for
the component from which it originated. It was not a Warren Commission document. It
indicated that OSWALD was in touch with a hardcore experienced KGB agent.
Perhaps the most intriguing document regarding OSWALD‟s CIA connections is one
dated April 1964 that deals with events as late as 1972 and may be predated by its
author JAMES ANGLETON. It contains names that do not appear in the FBI Report (the
Name List with Traces) that it refers to:
