Grain Purchases Expand as Soviet Imports Top World Trade
Memphis based Cook Industries says it will ship one million metric tons of wheat to the Soviet Union, lifting total 1975 Soviet grain purchases by American firms toward 4.5 million tons. The deal, valued about 150 million dollars, may mark the windup of the 1975 Soviet buying program with deliveries through August 1978.

Kennedy knew of Castro plot involving CIA and mob
Former ally Gen. Robert F Kennedy learned in 1962 of a plot to kill Fidel Castro that involved the CIA and the Mafia. Lawrence Houston, CIA general counsel for 25 years, told reporters Kennedy was not deeply disturbed, and cautioned the agency to involve him if Mafia dealings occurred. Houston said later CIA efforts to enlist the Mafia continued, but he could not confirm Kennedy's knowledge. He noted no push to prosecute those involved.
