Previous investigation has reflected that

ROLANDO ARCADIO MASFERRER ROJAS, former Cuban Senator,

presently residing in New York City, allegedly had sent

a group of Cuban exiles from the New York area

to Miami,

for the purpose of participating in an invasion of Haiti,

and that, some of these men had reportedly gone down to

the Florida Keys to a camp for training.

Close friends and relatives of MASFERRER, when

interviewed, denied any knowledge of these allegations

and claimed

that MASFERRER had not been in the Miami area,

despite reports to the contrary.

It is to be noted that during the BATISTA regime,

while serving as Senator from Oriente Province, MASFERRER

was the head of a so-called "goon squad" commonly known as

"The Tigers." MASFERRER acquired a reputation of being

ruthless, but was at the same time an enemy of FIDEL

CASTRO.

He is still regarded with considerable fear by

many Cubans, and at the same time he has the staunch

support of his followers.'

He has been excluded from the Miami area and

restricted to the New York area by the Immigration and

boat to the group so they could reach No Name Key with

She advised the group appeared to be

under the direction of OSCAR PINO, who she stated hac

previously been on No Name Key with other Cuban trainees.

Mrs. OETTLE advised that on the morning of August

18, 1963, she had observed LARRY/HOWARD, a Mexican, bring

8 or 9 more Cubans through her fishing camp to No Name

Key. She stated HOWARD was in a 1957 Chevrolet, blue

bottom with white top. She described him as 5'8", 180

pounds, black hair, black mustache, round face... She

car with two other Cubans on the morning of August 19,

1963.

On August 19, 1963; CPO WALTER PARKER, U.S.

Coast Guard, Marathon, Florida, advised the Coast Guard

had assisted in landing four Customs agents on No Name

Key on the night of August 16, 1963. They located approxi-

mately 16 Cubans dressed in Army fatigues, who claimed to

be members of the 2506th Brigade, recently discharged from

the U.S. Army. The group claimed they were on No Name Key

to take photographs of army maneuvers for propaganda

purposes and to raise funds. They claimed to have the

permission of the owner to occupy the premises and would

remain on the key for 2 or 3 days. A search by the Cus-

toms agents did not reflect any concealed weapons.

PARKER advised the Coast Guard was maintaining

routine patrols in the area and would advise of any unto-

ward activity. He added that the U.S. Coast Guard patrol

planes pass in the vicinity of No Name Key about twice a

day.
