Kennedy. who said in a speech to the American Society of Newspaper Editors on April 20. 1961: Cuba must not be abandoned to the Communists. And we do not intend to abandon it either. Later the distinguished President repeated that same pledge in the Orange Bowl in Miami. when he spoke before the socalled invaders who had been a part of the Bay of Pigs invasion. who had been subsequently released. and who were there in the Orange Bowl with their families and some 20.000 other Cuban refugees and 20.000 other citizens of the State of Florida. We must encourage the people. through constant official declarations of our sympathy and support to continue with heroic resistance over the years which is of such great importance. but so little understood and reported. I want to mention here the study published recently by the Citizens Committee for a Free Cuba. called Terror and Resistance in Communist Cuba.
