The December 27, 1963, edition of "The New York World
Telegram and Sun" newspaper stated that the pro-CASTRO FPCC was
seeking to go out of business and that its prime activity during
its lifetime had been sponsorship of pro-CASTRO street rallies
and mass picket lines, and the direction of an active propaganda
mill highlighting illegal travel-to-Cuba campaigns. Its compara-
tively brief span of life was attributed to mounting anti-CASTRO
American public opinion, the 1962 Congressional hearings which
disclosed FPCC financing by CASTRO's United Nations Delegation,
and ultimately, the bad publicity which the FPCC received from
disclosure of activities on its behalf by suspected presidential
assassin LEE H. OSWALD.
On February 6, 1964, the previously mentioned second
source advised that V. T. LEE had recently remarked that the
FPCC was dead and that there were no plans to organize another
Similar organization.
On April 13, 1964, a third source advised that there
had not been any FPCC activity in many months and that the FPCC
had been dissolved.
