Enclosed herewith are eight copies of a letterhead

The source of the information is [ur 568-s*.]6)

For the Bureau's info, it could not be determined

what business is being transacted with Cubans of interest

to the Israeli Ministry of Defenselexcept possibly the (S)

supply of arms.

It would appear that since DAVIDSON has

indicated he would be going to immigration authorities

concerning an asylum problem, DAVIDSON may be dealing with

BATISTA's sympathizers.

The memo was classified "Confidential" since it

tends to reflect FBI investigative interest in foreign

diplomatic officials and since data reported could reason-

ably result in identification of a confidential intormant

of continuing value and

compromise future effectiveness

thereof.
