“Son” [Syn] (cover name in Vassiliev’s notebooks): F.A. Garanin in 1945–46. Vassiliev Black Notebook, 50, 61.
SON [SYN] (cover name in Venona): Rudy Baker in 1944. Venona analysts did not identify SON as Baker because the two messages about SON provided few clues to his identify. The identification comes from Comintern records in Russia’s RGASPI archive. In that archive’s collection of coded correspondence between the Comintern and the CPUSA (RGASPI 495–184) are dozens of messages from “Brother” in Moscow with “Father” and “Son” in the United States. Annotations on these messages identify “Brother” as Georgi Dimitrov and “Father” as Earl Browder. The identification of “Son” as Rudy Baker comes in two ways. First, in these messages “Son” is the head of the CPUSA’s covert arm, which Baker had taken over in mid- 1938. None of the Comintern messages to “Son” occur until after Baker had been to Moscow in January 1939 and briefed Comintern officials on his assumption of leadership over the CPUSA secret apparatus. Further, located in a second Comintern collection, that of Dimitrov himself, is another document. It is from General Fitin, head of the KGB’s foreign intelligence directorate, to Dimitrov. This May 1942 message states “We are forwarding a telegram we received from New York addressed to you from Rudy [Rudi].” The enclosed message Fitin referred to is signed by “Son.” 160
