MANUEL GIL, employee, Information Council of the
Americas, Inc. 620 Gravier Street, New Orleans, Rouisiama,
advised he did not know LEE HARVEY OSWALD personally and
could not say that he had ever personally conversed either
in person or by telephone with oswald. GIL stated hs had
become aware of oswald in approximately August, 1963 at which
time oswald had been arrested by the New Orleans Police
Department in connection with the passing out of leaflets
by OSWALD and a fight which hald developed between osward and
other individuals at that timé. GIL stated subsequent to
the arrest of oswald the Information Council of the
Americas, Inc., had prepared E. tape of a debate or interyper
between oswald, EDWARD BUTLER, Staff Director of the Information
Council of the Americas, Inc. and other individuals. GIL
stated the tape which they had prepared was for dissemibation
use in Central American countries and the debate or interview
had actually occurred on a radio program, New Orleans redio
station WDSU.
GIL stated there was a time when he thought an
individual who had made mumerçus telephone calls to him
was OSWALD and at that time he had related his suspicions
that the person who had made the telephone calls to bim'
was oswald to Mr. EDWARD BUTLER. GIL explained that the
reason he had felt that the person making the telephone
calls was oswald was simply on the basis that the voice of
oswald which he had heard at the time of the interview,
sounded very similar to the yoice of the individual who.
had made the telephone calls to him previously.
GIL stated the person making the telephone calls
to him had a first name of STEVE, but he could not recall
what the last name had been. GIL advised that STEVE had
first started making telephone calls to him in approximately
November or December, 1961 and continued to make telephone
calls until approximately January, 1962. GIL stated he
had considered STEVE a pot" but STEVE had called; him
so many times requesting that he, STEVE, be put in touch with
the head of the "Cuban Resistance Group" that he, GIL, had
finally referred. STEVE to SERGIO ARCACHA, who was "head of
an anti-Castro Cuban organization" in New Orleans, Louisiana.
