Ruth's father William Avery Hyde was AID's Regional Insurance Adviser for all of South America":
Bill Hyde's Nationwide Insurance Company was part of the International Cooperative Alliance, founded in 1922 and which still exists today: http://www.ica.coop/al-ica/. The ICA has had an insurance sector for the last hundred years. http://www.icmif.org/who-we-are
Ruth referred to it as the "International Cooperative Alliance", which her father worked with when he wasn't active with the insurance company "Nationwide" -- she claimed that she wasn't sure if ICA was a governmental operation or not. Ruth Paine testimony, Orleans Grand Jury, 4/14/68, p. 59.
There is also the International Cooperation Administration (ICA) formed in 1954, which then merged with the Development Loan Fund and was re-named as the Agency for International Development (AID) as part of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961: http://books.google.com/books?id=el0L85-BejoC&pg=PT72&lpg=PT72&dq="international+cooperative+administration"&source=bl&ots=XByuJWzyjv&sig=2FuI1ZxfL2sw9V3WfewrAmmIOUY&hl=en&ei=WUI9TcHFG5KosAOErZX-Ag&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDsQ6AEwBTgK#v=onepage&q="international cooperative administration"&f=false
"where George de Mohrenschildt conducted petroleum intelligence in the fifties"Memo by SA James F. Morrissey, 2/28/64, p. 58, Reel 5, Folder N -- George de Mohrenschildt, NARA Record Number: 1994.04.25.14:02:25:940005.
The USAID website describes the predecessor organization as the "International Cooperation Association". http://www.usaid.gov/about_usaid/usaidhist.html
"International Cooperative Administration" is often mistakenly used to refer to the pre-AID organization. One example:
For a second example, see Craig L. LaMay, Exporting Press Freedom (Transaction Publishers, 2007), p. 48, http://books.google.com/books?id=el0L85-BejoC&pg=PT72&lpg=PT72&dq="international+cooperative+administration"&source=bl&ots=XByuJWzyjv&sig=2FuI1ZxfL2sw9V3WfewrAmmIOUY&hl=en&ei=WUI9TcHFG5KosAOErZX-Ag&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDsQ6AEwBTgK#v=onepage&q="international cooperative administration"&f=false
To add to the confusion, AID frequently uses the sobriquet "International Cooperative Administrative Support Services", or ICASS: http://www.usaid.gov/pubs/cp99/budreq.htm
The thing to remember is that these two organizations were very closely allied. The similarity of their names is not coincidental: A useful discussion explaining the relationships between these two organizations is in Barbara Lamonica's "William Avery Hyde", Fourth Decade, November 1997, p. 8.
