    On May 29, 1963, I requested permission from the FPCC headquarters at 799 Brodwig, New York 3, N.Y. to try to form a local branch in New Orleans. I received a cautious but enthusiastic go-ahead from V.T. Lee, National Director of FPCC. I then make layouts and had printed public literature for the setting up of a local FPCC. I hired persons to distribute literature. I then organized persons who display receptive attitudes toward Cuba to distribute pamplets. I sought response from Latin American councils of which there are many here in New Orleans. I infiltrated the Cuban Student directorate and harassed them with information I gained, including having the N.O. city attorney general call them in and put a restraining order, pending a hearing, on some so-called bonds for invasion they were selling in the New Orleans area. I caused the formation of a small, active, FPCC organization of members and sympathizers where before there was none.

    I am experienced in Street agitation, having done it in New Orleans in connection with the F.P.C.C. On Aug. 9, 1963, I was accosted by three anti-Castro Cubans and was arrested for "causing a disturbance." I was interrogated by intelligence section of New Orleans Police Dept. and held overnight, being bailed out the next morning by relatives. I subsequently was fined $10. Charges against the three cubans were dropped by the judge.
    On Aug 16, I organized a four man FPCC demonstration in front of the International trade mart in New Orleans. This demonstation was filmed by WDSU TV and shown on the 6:00 news.
    On August 17, I was invited by WDSU-Radio to appear on the August 17 radio program, Latin American Focus, at 7:30 PM. The moderator was Bill Stucky who put questions to me for half an hour about FPCC attitudes and opinions.
    After this program, I was invited to take part in a radio debate between John Buttler of "Inca," anti-communist progaganda organization representative and Carlos Bringer, Cuban exile Student Revolutionary Directorate delagate in New Orleans. This Debate was broadcast at 6:05 to 6:30, August 21. After this program, I made a 3 minute T.V. newsreel, which was shown the next day (August 22).
    I received advice, direction, and literature from V.T. Lee, National Director of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, of which I am a member. At my own expense, I had printed "Hands off Cuba" handbills and New Orleans branch membership Blanks for the F.P.C.C. Local.
