He said that although he has little money at the moment, he was to meet two individuals on January 7th and 8th (1964) to arrange financing and that, he would talk to them and try to raise some more money. KE NY T-2 stated that WILLIAMS advised that he belongs to no organization, that the operation is entirely a private venture. WILLIAMS added that several people lost a great deal of money when CASTRO .took over Cuba, and that many of these persons are now willing to finance an operation which will drive CASTRO and the other Communists out of Cuba so that they could recover their lost properties. «4 (W) WILLIAMS stated that he had talked to "the General of the Cossacks" but that the General's wife is sick and might die. He said that he really does not know what to do about the General. He said that this is ancther example of SCHIEBER talking too much and trying to push things too fast. van WILLIAMS said that another such example was ALEXANDER RORKE. He said that RORKE flew to a small island off the tip of Yucatan, near the Honduras coast. He was supposed to.make a refueling stop at this particular place. Unknown to anyone else, ' RORKE picked up a third man named GARCIA.. Although RORKE was supposed to be flying tc Panama, and had filed a flight plan for this destination, as soon as GARCIA was picked up and the plane was airborn, he radioed that he was changing’ | his course and destination to Honduras. WILLIAMS said that : he kept telling RORKE that he was handling things ail \ wrong, but RORKE would not listen’ to him. He said that: when RORKE left, he had a tremendous amount of money with him, and that this money disappeared with RORKE. de said that RORKE was travelling with a pilot nained SULLIVAN, who had > flown RORKE many times before. After the plane took off 4 from Yucatan, it was not seen again. He said that since no wreckage has ever been found, i is convinced that 4 the plane was forced to land in Cuba.
