Partly as a result of the efforts of the CIA

entry into Chile of organizers of the Cuban sponsored Second
Latin American Youth Congress, which had been scheduled to take

led to postponement of theCongress.
f. After considerable prodding by the CIA Station

As a result of representations made to the British
government about Cuban flights to the Cayman Islands carrying
Latin American subversives, the British developed an administrative
scheme which will effectively prohibit the use of British
Caribbean dependencies by Cubana as transit points for passengers.
The British intend to require transit visas of passengers passing
through their areas, and to reject applications for such visas
except in certain special cases.

d. Instructed Embassy Mexico City on August 29 to
inform the Mexican airline QA that the United States is
opposed to a proposal that CMA operate charter flights to carry
refugeds from Havana to Central America. CMA, as a result,
stated that they had no intention of proceeding further with
this project.
e.
Instructed U.S. Missions in Curacao and the Ha gue
to investigate a report that KIM was planning to renew ch
scheduled Curacao-Habana flights and to reiterate US opposition
to resumption of air service to Cuba. KLM assured our Embassy
that there is no plan to initiate service, scheduled or non-

Instructed Embassy Ottawa to express our strong
objections to a proposal that a Cubana charter flight pick up
a second group of U.S. students in Montreal to fly them to Cuba.
The flight was not authorized.
8. Instructed Consulate Georgetown to investigate
Cubana approaches to secure flight facilities.

on August 1 that the Governor had no knowledge of any talks

urged the government of Chile to refuse visas to Cuban delegatôs
to a preparatory meeting planning for the II Latin American
Youth Congress scheduled for August in the Chilean capital.
Inability of Cuban delegates to obtain Chilgan visas for this
meeting is one of the contributing factors to the Cuban sponsors
announcing during August that the meeting had been postponed..
k. Sent general instructions to our missions in countries
which participate in the International Union of Architects asking
them to urge the cooperation of governmental authorities in
preventing or discouraging the attendance of their citizens to
the VII UIA Congress in Habana, September 29-October 4, 1963.
Followed this up with instructions to individual posts to try

Responding to the urging of the CIA Station police
of the State of Guanabara seized large quantities of propa-
ganda brought into Brazil by passengers on the special Cubana
flights. For example, some 50 pounds of printed propaganda
was taken from the various passengers who arrived on the 16

emphasis as prior to 1 July 1963.
b. Continued to maintain U.S. Forces, primarily from
within the Atlantic Command, available to assist other Caribbean
governments in the interception of suspicious craft in
territorial waters, as might be requested. No such requests were
received from any other government during the period covered by

location of the Soviet merchant freighter MITCHURINSK, which

Subsequently, British police search of MITCHURINSK in British
