Venona analysts, on the basis of what is said of CHEN’s family relations in this 26 May 1944 message, identify CHEN as Zalmond Franklin. “Chen” does not appear in the Vassiliev notebooks. However, Franklin is identified in the Vassiliev notebooks in 1944 with the cover name “Chap”, which is “Chep” in Russian. As CHAP [CHEP], this cover name also appears in Venona as an unidentified Soviet intelligence agent whose activities are fully compatible with Franklin, and is identified as
78
Franklin herein. It may be that the 26 May 1944 appearance of CHEN in the Venona decryptions is simply a minor ciphering error for CHEP. Venona New York KGB 1944, 159; Venona Special Studies, 77. CHEN (cover name in Venona): Unidentified Soviet intelligence source/agent in 1943. Venona’s CHEN of 1944 is clearly Zalmond Franklin in light of what is said of CHEN’s family situation in the single message (Venona New York KGB 1944, 159) about CHEN. Venona analysts tentatively extended the Franklin identification of CHEN of 1943, but the elements of what were said of CHEN in these 1943 messages seem a far afield from Franklin’s know activities, and Venona analysts in an annotation noted the uncertainty of the identification.
