A Cuban mu!it be used for this mission, as he should bear the.burden if it were to fail. The risk in propaganda losses would be to great to be run by the United States. Secondly, I honestly believe that our results, for Cuba andthe entire Hemisphere, would be greatly insured if any plans that are drafted for thedeliver?noe of our Republic from the hands of International Communism, should be made under the direct eurveillence of the UUSA. In making the goals of the coalition public for the whole continent to see, the risk of someone repeating the steal of the rights of the people once mare, would be minimised. I have the acceptance of a large group of professional men, mostly An-erioan trained, that realize, as I do, that the true leader of the Hemisphere is the United States, and that only in close cooperation with this leader will our freedoms be preserved and our economic levels raised to their deserved standard. The fight against Communism belongs to all of America. Together we can make the 1960's the decade of Pana+eric?nism and Freedom. STAT try main reasons for applying for an indefinite position of this nature, which I must feel must be created without delay by this ado In ton days, another letter will follow this one, to insure delivery.
