Testimony on Cuban invasion costs and CIA role described
Senators disclosed CIA officials told the Foreign Relations Subcommittee that about 45 million dollars funded the failed Cuban invasion which led to rebel captures. General Lemnitzer said equipment came from the Defense Department and that the military did not control spending. CIA chief Dulles faced House Foreign Affairs questions for over three hours, declining to discuss details with reporters. Rep Zablocki indicated satisfaction but offered no elaboration. The tractors for prisoners were labeled blackmail ransom by Capehart, with Bridges calling it heinous barter, and further testimony planned from Rusk and IRS officials on tax exemptions for tractor fund donations amid tax-free debates.
