NY 97-1792 The February 6, 1964 edition of the "New York Daily News" contained an article on page 5, ceptioned, "Cuban Fair Play Group Renamed and Back in Biz," which stated that the FPCC, which ostensibly fell to pieces, 1s again doing business under the name of Friends of Latin America, according to high intelligence sources of the News. According to the article, the new group is making grandiose plans to pour money and support into such trouble spots as the Canal Zone and Venezuela. The article stated that the leaders may find that they stubbed their toes over the Foreign Agents Registration Act, inaemuch as its top brass have not registered, and the Justice Depart- ment has been studying possible prosecution of the old FPCC leaders, namely ROBERT TABER, RICHARD GIBSON and VINCENT TIEODORE LEE. The article added that LEE has been busily conferring with his old Fair Play assocletes, and that word had gone out to various chapters throughout the country, which had also closed down after the assassination, giving them the new,name and new procedures. They are expected to "reconstitute themselves -- unless the government moves in on the leadership." A characterization of the WSCFRC appears in the Appendix attached hereto. ~ 33 - Se Le en wee eee eat wine pene ee Dect
