Robert A. Maheu discussed his involvement with the CIA, including his work as a cover for Agency employees and funding their income. He recalled being involved with the CIA on several occasions but had no specific recollection of the purpose of the agents using his office for cover.

Maheu mentioned that he had no inclination or feeling about what the assignment was, nor did he know if it was an espionage or PR kind of assignment. He also stated that there was never an island involved with that assignment to his knowledge.

Regarding Jack Buckley, Maheu believed that from time to time a Jack Buckley did work for Robert A. Maheu Associates, but not as an employee. Maheu recalled being involved with the CIA on several occasions, including around 1968, and stated that he had no recollection of the name of the person who was placed on the payroll as WARD A. PAUL.

Maheu also mentioned that he did not address him as Mr. Manu, but rather referred to him as Perhapss he was placed on the payroll. This repetition of similar statements about Ward A. Paul appears to be an error in the original text and has been removed from this summary.

Howard Hughes' refusal to terminate Alexander Meier earlier due to fear of embarrassment is noted, along with Meier's involvement in a cover operation for the Agency. Maheu's recommendation to discourage a lawsuit by putting up $10,000 with an individual named Jamie (last name unknown) is also mentioned.

Documents indicating serious double-crosses on mining properties are listed as evidence, and Meier's involvement in a cover operation for the Agency is noted.
