The information furnished in a memorandum dated June 5, 1959 at Washington, D.C. and captioned Anti-Fidel Castro Activities points to a possible violation, if the allegations contained therein were proved me by competent and legally sufficient evidence. Ss It appears from your memorandum that Rolando Arcadio Masferrer Rojas, Justo Intis Pozo del Puerto, and Pedro Diaz have entered into an agreement which could constitute a conspiracy to violate Section 956, Title 18, United States Code, in that they appear to have agreed to injure or destroy specific property situated in Cuba. It will, of course, be necessary to establish that the property to be destroyed i belongs to the Cuban Government or. a political subdivision thereof, - ox or that it is a public utility. However, for the present, it is . assumed that such proof ‘can be adéuced because of the targets dis- aa CUuSSEG, Vides telegraph office, microwave station and teletype office. pat It would also be necessary to establish an. overt act by one of oe the conspirators to effect the object of the conspiracy. Such an =] anes to carry out e3 overt act could be the purchasing or acouiring of pl the conspiracy.

However, it does appear they have agreed to attack Cuba, from the United States. If this is established and if an overt act to effect the object of the conspiracy is committed, such as the gathering together of individuals under such circumstances as to make clear that they were about to engage in an expedition against Cuba from the United States, there could be a conspiracy to violate Section 960. We are reviewing other information furnished by the Bureau and will review future information concerning subject and if any such information points to a possible violation of law, we will advise you.
