Lee Forman Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hey Tom. Would 'sugar' translate into anything else? I have read interesting allegations concerning the impact on sugar prices due to the Cuban embargo, and what this implied for US soft drink companies. Is there any sort of link? - lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any sort of link? - lee Not unless there is a direct link between "sugar" and Pepsi Cola, who, on 11/21/63 initiated the "Soft Drink Bottler's Association" meeting in Dallas, TX, which occupied the principal bldg. at which a President may hold a luncheon, and which thereafter indirectly created the parade route which JFK took through Dallas. Not unless there is some direct link between Pepsi-Cola and Kleins's Sporting Goods which reportedly sold LHO the Carcano rifle. Not unless there is some direct link between RMN; Pepsi Cola; and the law firm which RMN went to work for after losing to JFK. Not unless there is some direct link between Pepsi Cola and Lawrence V. Meyers. Not unless there is some direct link between Pepsi Cola and the "early" days "drugs for guns" in which the war in SE Asia was being fought with the local druglords, and in which Pepsi constructed a plant which never produced one bottle of softdrink. Tom P.S. Two Items. It is a known joke among many, that RMN got Kruschev to drink Pepsi. & My oldest son, whom I have shared some knowledge with, just informed me to see some new movie in which the "subtle" joke that somene should choke from drinking a pepsi.

One should note the date of the FBI letter (February, 1963). Thereafter, one should note the schedule of George DeMohrenschildt: March, 1963---Travelled to Haiti, and stopped off in the Dominican Republic. De Mohrenschildt's "geological survey" approved. Payment to be in the amount of $285,000.00. Payment initially made in the sum of $20,000.00 cash, and the remaining monies to be paid over a period of ten years from interest in a "sisal" plantation at Montrouis which was to be operated by Clemard J. Charles. Easter, 1963----Back in Dallas, visited the Oswalds. May 1963---Left Dallas, stopped over in New York, Washington, and Philadelphia. June 1963---Went to Haiti. Stopped over in Dominican Republic April--1964---Went to Dominican Republic from Haiti to get Vureau of Mines information. Went to San Juan Puerto Rico.

Thomas H. Purvis Posted October 7, 2005 Author Share Posted October 7, 2005 Yes John; I am fully aware of this photograph, although I am certain that many are not, and that most would have never understood the significance. Just as they do not recognize the significance that Eddie Meyers, who owned a Pepsi distributer dealership in Brooklyn, NY, and brother to Lawrence V. Meyers, was in Dallas, TX and met with and had dinner with his brother and Jack Ruby. Perhaps a larger version of the "Sign" in the background is called for. Tom P.S. Does anyone know who took the photo? I have never managed to find out and quit looking years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a frame from the Hughes film when the motorcade is nearing the corner of Main and Houston. The version I have is very poor, so when I faintly spotted the sign I found a 60's Pepsi logo in an old ad and pasted it in to bring out the sign. Perhaps someone has a good copy of relevant frame?It's in the early part of the Hughes film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Gaal Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 The LOBO family had large sugar holdings (HAD) in Cuba. They also had a Madrid Bank that employed Veciana. On the internet I found that a member of the LOBO family had married into the Stillman Rockefeller family. (no other info). The Stillmans (SKULL AND BONES) sold most of their holdings in the summer of 63 in NY City Bank (we know as Citicorp today) to the Regular Rockefellers. This bank (HAD) handled the Cuban Lansky Racetrack moola. Both the Stillman & regular Rockefellers were part of Freeport Sulfur -connected in PROBE to DAP & SHAW. It is possible the LOBO family had Sugar interests outside of CUBA. THANKS sg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless, I have seen an excellent copy of the photo of the Presidential Limousine, with the Pepsi sign in the background. Somewhere, in some box, there is a copy of it, but I never followed through on where it came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
