1959rif. 884698Washington D.C. 1959. To columnist and television reporter of Meet the Press Lawrence E. Spivak on Vice Presidential stationery with a 5 page memo carbon unsigned describing his recent meeting with Fidel Castro. Nixon admires Castro's charisma and bravery here in this memorandum summarizing his discussion with the Cuban leader on April 19 1959. Nixon characterizes him as having" those indefinable qualities which make him a leader of men." But there was also much that disturbed him. Everything that Castro was doing from suspending elections to the executions of political opponents he justified as carrying out "the will of the people." Nixon says: "this almost slavish subservience to prevailing majority opinion - the voice of the mob - rather than his naive attitude toward Communism and his obvious lack of understanding of even the most elementary economic principles which concerned me most in evaluating what kind of a leader he might eventually turn out to be." In his conclusion Nixon says that because Castro has "the power to lead.we have no choice but at least to try to orient him in the right direction." Together 6 pages attached memo on carbons with some small glue remnant on the lower left corners fifth page of memo laid down with some glue residue showing.
