The Director has inquired concerning the ownership of Anguilla

Key in the Bahamas which was mentioned in our 3/27/63 memorandum as

being the base for an unsuccessful Alpha 66 expedition

against Cuba

in November, 1962. Anguilla Key is a British possession.

Upon recelot of the data concerningluse of Anguilla Key

by Alpha 66, we sent a memorandum to British Intelligence pointing ou

its use by the anti-Castro group CAt. the time we also advised the

Attorney General and all interested U. S. agencies.

that President Kennedy planned to visit the Bahamas on 1219/62,

sent a memorandum to Mr.

After learning

O'Donnell at the White House dated 12/12/62

concerning the matter.

In addition to the all-out investigation ordered concerning

captioned group's raid on Cuba during the night of 3/26-27/63, we are

pressing the investigations concerning the other three anti-Castro

groups involved in raids or contemplated raids against Cuba, which

investigations have been authorized by the Department. Instructions

were issued on 3/20/63 and 3/27/63 to interview all leaders and key

personalities of Alpha 66 who might have knowledge of contemplated raids

against Cuba, and similar interviews were ordered concerning the Second

National Front of Escambray leaders who aligned themselves

with Alpha

On 3/26/63 Miami was instructed to furnish the results of its

linquiries concerning possible raid plans of the Directorio Revolucion-

ario Estudiantil to the Bureau today, 3/28/63.

On 3/27/63 we gave

Miami a deadline of 4/5/63 to report

results of interviews and inques

concerning a recent raid on Cuba reportedly carried

pout by

soldier/of

fortüne Roy, Hargraves and some of his associates.

Last night we reiterated to key field offices previous

instructions issued in October and November, 1962, concerning the

necessity to maintain the best possible sources within the various anti-

Castro groups.

In addition, these offices were put on notice they would

be expected to cultivate members of anti-Castro groups who did not

necessarily qualify as sources and were to direct the activities.of

their

established sources toward the development of advanse cutormation

regarding proposed raids against Cuba.
