6. He asked A-1 if he had any ideas of where AMBANG-1 is at present. A-1 is of the opinion that AMBANG-1 is probably hiding in some small island off Puerto Rico.

7. A-1 inquired if he could sue the Newsweek magazine. We advised him that he could sue but the likelihood of him winning the case was slight. A-1 was referring to the article which stated he intended to draw the United States into an open conflict with Castro. We asked if there were any truth to the matter. A-1 laughed and said, "Of course not."

8. A-1 was advised that we consider 7 June a firm date for the Consejo meeting. The reason we are pinning him down to a specific date was because of the necessary preparations that have to be made prior to any meeting. A-1 said he would be there on that date.
