# CONTINUATION OF DISPATCHSECRETIOOIA - 26223D. Rico to Dr. Emilio Cordero, Dominican exile in Mexico City:Rico complains to Cordero that he was supposed to call and that the other (Nikolay) has already called twice. Cordero says that he called yesterday but there was no one in, they told him they had gone out together. Is the friend there? Victor says no, that he said he would be busy between 1630 and 1700 hours and Victor will be busy until 1900 hours. Cordero asks to let it go until tomorrow, as he himself is very busy. He suggests coming to Victor's at 1600 hours. Victor prefers to call before that at 1530 hours. Cordero congratulates him on his article in Siempre. A foolish thing, Victor says. Cordero asks him if he has seen Luis Suarez' article and what did he think of it? Rico says it is written in first person, very superficial, very much a personal adventure. Very journalistic, Cordero comments. Yes, but journalistic like Serer's (Station comment: Probably Julio Sherer Garcia, writer for daily Excelsior) and to Victor it appears to be more...Cordero says that the situation there grows worse. Victor asks if he saw Mayobre's thing. Cordero says yes, very good. Well, comments Victor, that of Mayobre was not expected but it is that the thing is so obvious. Cordero will call tomorrow at 1500 hours.E. Saul (Inu) to Rico: Saul tells Rico that a friend arrived from New York yesterday. Would he like to talk with him? Rico says of course. They decide on Monday at Rico's home. When Rico says he does not speak English Saul says that since he doesn't either they will have to have another person.3. May 21: 0615 to 2400 hours:A. Leonov to Rico: Leonov greets Rico in a very friendly way. Rico says that yesterday he talked with The Man, he had a lot of work and preferred to leave it for today. He asks Leonov to call again at 1600 hours. Leonov will call.B. Luis Suarez and Rico Gulan: Suarez sent a very strong article against the United States on the Dominican situation which was published yesterday. He did not want to lose the chance no matter what they thought and they said that he had abandoned the work, never having had a contact with "them". Suarez and Rico discuss the articles on the Dominican situation published by both Suarez and Sherer Carcia of Excelsior. Rico says that Sherer's article was the first to give the Latin American point of view on the Dominican situation, Suarez agrees but says, "the interview with Caamano, no." Victor comments that Sherer did a good job. Suarez does not known what happened with Sherer. ila published one thing that he showed him in Santo Domingo, after he published the thing about the OAS the following day, and no more, he dried up, they have not published him anymore. Suarez comments that the President received him. Why? It seems unbelieveable that they have made this effort in order to publish only two days. Rico terminates the conversation with congratulations to Suarez.C. Cordero to Rico: Victor is waiting for a call from The Man (Leonov?) at 1600 hours to make a date at 1700 hours at home. Emilio accepts and will be there at 1700 hours.D. Leonov to Rico: Victor sets the meeting for 1700 hours at his home. Leonov agrees.
