On November 25, 1963, ERNEST ARAGON, United States Secret Service Agent, Miami, Florida, advised SA GEORGE E.

Soon the Atomic bOlllbs will rain and they will not know from where. 11

'Ihe files of

the FBI Office, Mia.mi, Florida, 1ndf cated that information had previously been received to the effect that DR.

NUNEZ PORTUONDO stated that CABARGA has only expressed opinions and that he has no concrete data to indicate OSWALD was directed or controlled by any group, foreign or domestic in this assassination of President KENNEDY. To avoid any misunderstanding, although NUNEZ PORTUONDO speaks in the English lang\lf!ge well, the entire interview was conducted in the Spanish language.

Dr. EKILIO NDNEZICRTUONDO• 161.l S. W. MJ.ami, furniahed the following information:

14th Terrace, •>

lbe person who ealled him from kxico City, on November 24, 1963, is JOSE ANTONIO CAB.AR.GA, Apartado Postal 3000. CABARGA is the former Preai.dent of the Maritime Retirement Funds, Cuba. He 18 allegedly anti-CASTRO, and well informed on CASl'RO and Commnist activities. RtJNEZ did not recall that CABARGA said, ''BOBBY is next," or t:liat ''Atomic bombs will eoon rain.''

NUNEZ PORTUONDO stated he hadm concrete data of any kind whatsoever indicating a connection or direction of IEE HARVEY OSJALD by any group foreign or domestic. He pointed out, however, that FIDEL CASTRO is a Paranoic; that the United States has not prosecuted ROBERT TABER, a founder of the '"Fair Play for Cuba Committe'' nor any of the students ar naturalized Americans of Cuban descent, who have violated U. S. Travel Control Laws.

NUNEZ PORTUONDO also stated that no punitive a ction has been taken ~gainst CASTRO and his regime, and I ·chat CASTRO has been a filowed to reach a point where he feels that he is really1 important , and can reach into the United States and physically a ttack its leaders. He declared that CASTRO is now far mare dangerous than

KHRUSRCH&V of Russia .

NUNEZ PORTUONDO stated that he no longer enjoys a good liaison or much popularity in important anti-CASTRO groups. NUNEZ PORTUONDO said tha t CABARGA is in frequent contact with the United States Embassy in Mexico Cit1; that ~A is an able investigator; and i f the assassination of President KENNEDY was planned in Mexico, CABARGA

would be the man who could cevelop detai1s.

Just a mJuute aeo?

Mr. Bu~on:n. u11t January I \Vent to llirunl, Fla.. where l wu talking t.o Dr. EmrnoNunei-Portuondo. former Cubllll Ambassador to the United Nationa, lltld he told me lh&l Ju.~t after the as;.u!'!'inlltlon of Prei;ldent Kenned.r be rece.lved n reQlle>-t trom one of the bi~t ltexi1•an newspapers asking .him for some puhllc dl'Claratluns ot o(llnlon uliout the lliiSIL&slnntion. He l!ent that day a letter with hts prebS release lnside. addr'!"sc;ed. to one tricnd or him who is living In l!exico City and bts friend deli-rer t.b&t pr~ relea<:e to the llenco City 11l'W8)leper in Mexico. In that relebe, Mr. :'\nnez-Ponuondn blnmed Fidel Castro u the "intellectual murderer of Premdent Kenneds."

Dr. Portuondo told me that the s:ime day that that tutormatlon appear fn the paper, his !ri1•nd ;;offer an attempt co be kidnaped. 'l'bere 'l\"e.Dt about eight men to thl5 man house, and when they were trying to put hJm inside Gne nutomobllr. nt the snme moment poss u reporter-£ believe that "as trom the AP-nnd when the reporter saw what was going on, he sturt to ask for help.

At that moment the poliee Cllme nod staned to question the eight men, and, accordinl? to Nunez..Portu01Jdo, they Identified themselves as members of the Secret Service of the Me:x:lcan Girrernment, and Mr. Portuoudo's friend was benlen so hard that he had to go to a hospital for 4 days with a broken leg, jast becanse he wu the one who deliver Nunez-Portuondo'" scatement to the lfexlcan neWS'(lllJM!l" bl.am.Ing Fidel Cac:tro for the murder or Prl?'<ldent Kennedy.

Mr. Lxrnn n I WDDt to ~ back briefly ro the letter from Fernandez to Lechup 'l\"hJch yon Indicated hnd been intercepted.

Mr. .Ban;GUID. Well, I believe that that lener was lntercepted here In New Orleans when Fernandez was sending the letter to Mexico. I clidn't have too m11ch contact '!\"Ith that deal, because that was for another orgunwition, not my organiution, and I clidn't want to be in-rol"red. in that that maybe was against tbe law.

Mr. Ln:nn r:a That was intercepted while It was in the l:'.S. malls?

Mr. BJUN011IEJL I th.lnk so. I think that he gue that letter to somebod; to drop ln the maU, and that somebody that was suspicious about him. they opened the letter and they found what the letter was telllng. I don't know what they do with the letter. I don't know nothing else. I know about what ls saJd In the paper. I know that they dismantle all the training camp here lo New Orleans. They went back to M.lamL 1 paid the trip for two of them to go back to :\llatnl. Excuse me. I did not pay the trip, I collect &0me "DlOnie!' among some Cubans, and we paid the trip. I don't want to set something on the record that 1.8 not.-llr. I.n;nn" Does 1t 81.Y saml'thing ebont the letter in theae :newsp1rper st.orles that you bne referred :me to?

Refugee Chief Takes Reins Ricardo Nunez-Portuondo was sworn in Tuesday as director of the federal Cuban Refugee Program.

Approximately 360 persons attended a Miami luncheon at which the oath of office was administered by Marjorie Lynch, under-secretary of Health, Education and Welfare.

Nunez-Portuondo is the first Cuban-American appointed to the $36,000-a-year job. He succeeds Howard Palmatier, who died last March.

"The appointment of a . CubanAmerican to the highest federal position dealing with the assimilation of an important group of new Americans symbolizes the unmistakable recognition of this major ethnic group by the NUNEZ highest authorities in the land," Nunezâ&#x20AC;˘ Portoondo said in a speech immediately after he was sworn in.

"This is a day in which we can all be proud of being Cuban. and of being American - for we are both." ¡Nunez-Portuondo was appointed in August and approved earlier this month by the U.S. Civil Service Commission. He is a former Voice of America broadcaster who once was associated with Gramco. a now defunct Bahamian investment fund, and who later headed a real estate development firm in Miami, NBS Development Inc.

POLITICAL CIRCUS -...

Refugee Program Director Ricardo Nunez, a Repu\:ilic~ ¥d the first presidential appoi'ttt&~ important federal position, has won the support of key Latin Democrats in town.

It has been learne·d that Miami Mayor Maurice Ferre, Miami Commissioner Manolo Reboso and Florida Democratic Party Chairman Alfredo Duran want Nunez to stay in office despite the change in administrations.

Nunez, who passed all security checks required for the position. was recently given a very favorable evaluation by a task force appointed by the federal government.

During his 13·month tenure.

Nunez has managed to tighten fiscal controls on all local programs funded by the CRP - thus, stepping on some toes and winning some criticism from those chastised.

According to the cynics, the Latin Democrats would rather see Nunez as director of the Cuban Refugee Program, a position which keeps him politically neutral, than as a focal point of active local opposition.

If he is asked to resign by the new Carter administration, Nunez plans to return to his business ventures in housing development projects. It has been learned he woulcl also become active and vocal pol•' 'cally - maybe even run for l\tf' mayor.
