-2- I remember one time Banister was tolling me about some automobile parts and heavy equipment being sent to Cuba in violation of a State Department band against the export of equipment to Cuba. He was investigating it for somebody. This comes in somewhore, I don't remember exactly where. He told me he had pictures of this stuff and mentioned the name of the wharf where it was. He also told me he could take me and show me other equipment that was going to Cuba. I remember he told me that he had pictures of this equipment but I don't remember if he told me Newbrough aid take them or was going to take them. He called and asked me about a camera, but I didn't have the kind he wanted. So, the next time I saw him, Newbrough was in the office along with Martin, Dave Ferrie, and Dave Lewis. Delphene Roberts was the secretary. Bill Ninski was in the other xoom. This was on Lafayette Street. We went around to the restaurant and New- brough told me he had taken some pictures for Banister. What they were, I don't know. I think Newbrough or Martin mentioned jeeps to me. Subsequently, I ran into one of the Cubans I was introduced to in Banister's Office in my own office building, and I would see him coming in and out of the elevator, and I asked him if he had seen Banister and he said, "NO, I'm not fooling with that anymore.' I haven't seen this Cuban for about four months now. This particular unknown Cuban was watching Oswald pass out these pamphlets in front of Maison Blanche, Kress, and the Audubon Building. I remember also that Anna Burglass was also in and out of Banister's office during this same period. JOSEPII A. OSTER
