Despite the lack of diplomatic relations with Cuba. our own best interests require that we leave no stone unturned to be sure that Cubas efforts to eliminate these diseases succeed and her needs for assistance are met. Canadian officials are working through the Pan American Health Organization to assist Cuba. but their threat to Canada is not nearly as great as the threat to us. only 90 miles away. Either of the diseases can easily be hijacked into this country. brought in by refugees or carried in by boats which still travel between our country and theirs. American relationship with Cubans is not so strained but what our athletes and theirs cannot compete in Call. Columbia.
