Description
Dr. Otilia Meilan (left), a Cuban Ministry Official, hands a check for $2 million to Southern Airways President Frank W. Hudse in Havana, Cuba Saturday. The money was taken as ransom by a hijacker in 1972 and the Cubans seized the money in retaliation for the confiscation of Cuban funds in American banks.
