I explained the United States does not participate officially in the Conference. She then asked me if I could find out what procedures he should follow in order to attend. NOEL BROWN) asked me if the United States refused to officially have anything to do with the Conference because of the disapproval of CYRUS EATON. "DALE stuck an SNCC bumper strip to the GEIGER station wagon, and she said their neighbors would really run them out now but to leave it on. She said she had gone from door to door, urging something or other about peace, and they all were calling her a Communist. "NANCY O'NEILL -- Office as stated above. She con- ducted all the Town Meetings; made all the announce- ments; did not take part in any of the discussions with the exception of those on Cuba. She was for welcoming CASTRO back into OAS, removal of the economic blockade; said it was our policy that had” turned CASTRO into a Communist; believed people were happy there. CASTRO had built many new schools and hospitals; divided the wealth of the country equitably, was very appreciative of food and medicines Quakers had sent last year following the hurricane, When I vemarked that I had yet to hear one constructive’ remark about the United States other than my own, she replied, ‘Well, I believe you'll find there is slightly less criticism of the United States among these poys.and girls than there is of the Soviet Inion.' 7 ss EERIE Brat. dittonaaararhacabiaeecrstie aes caitt on at cadiice ores eee re ectrnaenone tee eesserneatmanenaseemiemenntnmmnanaml
