DL 44-1639 ADN:gj 1

The following investigation was conducted by SA ALFRED D, NEELEY, at Dallas, Texas:

During interview on December 21, 1963, JACK LEON RUBY advised "at a time when
CASTRO was popular in the United States" he read of an individual in the vicinity of Houston,
Texas, having been engaged in "gun running" to CASTRO, RUBY stated that he attempted to
contact this individual by telephone as he had in mind "making a buck" by possibly acquiring
some jeeps or other similar equipment which he might sell to persons interested in their
importation to Cuba. RUBY claimed nothing came of this. On January 14, 1964, Assistant
District Attorney WILLIAM ALEXANDER, Dallas, advised that he had learned from some
source, RUBY had reportedly had contact with one DAVIS described as an ex-convict believed
living in Beaumont, Texas, ALEXANDER stated he understood the FBI, Houston, had handled
the investigation of this person resulting in conviction for gun-running activities.

The Houston Office advised by communication January 17, 1964, that investigation had failed to
identify (FNU) DAVIS either at Houston or Beaumont, Texas, The Houston Office advised that
ROBERT RAY McKEOWN was the most logical individual to whom RUBY referred.
McKEOWN was arrested February 25, 1958, and on October 24, 1958, he was sentenced in the
U. S, District Court, SDT, Houston, Texas, to sixty days to serve and $500.00 fine on a charge of
conspiracy to smuggle goods to Cuba and given a two year sentence suspended for five years on
his second count. The Houston Office further stated that on March 28, 1958, information
obtained from the Houston Chronicle (newspaper) disclosed at a hearing regarding this matter, a
partial list of arms obtained at residence of McKEOWN was produced and entered in evidence
by CHESLEY JONES, an agent of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax Unit, Dallas, Texas.
