Dear Sir:
If Lmerican troops were used to over-
throw the Cuban (Castro) Government, it
would be an act of wirr and also possible
that Red Russia would intervean.
I have concieved a plan, where it is
possible to over-throw Castro within forty-
eight hours, ^?ithout the use of American
forces. At this time I am questioning if
I would violate my rights as an American
citizen, and sacrifice my freedom with im-
risonment, if I began to recruit volunteers
for the invasion of Cube. If this recruit-
ing program is not an. offense, and will not
violate my citizenship or freedom, would it
be -possible to secure de ;a m-ps and mil-
itary strength figures of Ouban forces.
This is not an attempt to embarras our
Government, or :desire to squeeze infor-
.a.ation from ranking officials in regards
to their intentions toward the Cuban Goverr?-
t_ent. I request nothing; eL;e, except know-
ledge of ilv future position as a citizen, if
I attempted to recruit volunteers. I have
not revealed ~~y plan to anyone, end your
reply till be destroyed as soon &,--7, 1 have
completed reading it, if I recieve it.
