Notes and topics

This is a copy of what must have been sent.

BR is "disturbed" by reports that appeared in the New York Times and the New York Herald Tribune describing a joint U.S.-Nicaraguan plan for the invasion of Cuba.

The reports are based on an interview with Luis Somoza, a former president of Nicaragua who "... claims to be in contact with Attorney General Robert Kennedy and the leader of the Bay of Pigs invasion, Manuel Artime."

BR states that these reports are "most damaging" to the U.S.
