Cuban Arms (Universal Newsreel, Feb 1963)

Description

The original release sheet reads: CUBAN ARMS: KENNEDY DENIES RUSSIAN BUILD-UP At his news conference, President Kennedy backs U.S. intelligence and statements by Defense Secretary Robert McNmara that there has been no offensive build up by the Russians in Cuba. He says the administration's estimation of arms in Cuba is based on comprehensive reports and emphasizes that certain congressmen and senators do not have these sources. ROYAL TOUR: QUEEN TAKES PART IN FIJI CEREMONY On her tour of the south pacific, Queen Elizabeth, accompanied by Prince Philip, receives an uproarious welcome from the natives in this British possession. She takes part in traditional ceremonies that include drinking the native "kava" from a polished coconut shell. It's a potent drink that appears to be not to the Queen's taste.
