the Bureau, in order that one copy may be transmitted to

Legat, Havana, inasmuch as Legat will continue to maintain

coverage of subject in Cuba noting that the administrative

of some particular interest in finally establishing what

telephone subject may be using in havana.

The lead for the Miami Division at Miami,

Florida, to examine the records of Cubana and Pan

• American

Airlines for a two week period was not covered

at Miami,

Florida, inasmuch as past experience indicated that there

with SANTO TRAFFICANTE, this incident was not made an official

to think of himself as a "biggshot and gangstor" ano

extremely worried (1) regarding his vast financial 'holdings

in Cuba, (2) the racket inquiries presently underway in

the New York area, and (3) the outcome of the present trial.

DE SALVO stated that HENRY TRAFFICANTE said that he felt that

if SANTO TRAFFICANTE did not have the Cuba area available for

his operations, he did not know where he would go, and

he was particularly concerned about the situation, and,

not only in view of his heavy financial commitments, but

also as a place to locate. He was also considerably worried

due to the distressing outlook in both instances. DE SALVO

stated that he did not consider any of this group interested *

In any expansion of TRAFFICANTE's activities into the

Jacksonville area, the general impression being that their

present problems in Cuba plus instant Internal Revenue trial

were occupying their interests.
