Florence had been having an affair with JFK since 1944. The couple spent a
lot of time together. Betty Spalding said that for Kennedy, "Over a long
period of time, it was probably the closest relationship with a woman I know
of." However, because Kennedy was a Roman Catholic, marriage was out of
the question.
According to one account: "JFK would elude the Secret Service on occasion
in order to have trysts with women. He did this in Palm Beach when he
hopped a fence to swim with Flo Smith. The Secret Service agents couldn't
find him and called in the FBI. They finally turned to Palm Beach Police Chief
Homer Large, a trusted Kennedy family associate. The Police Chief knew
exactly where to find Jack - next door in Earl E. T. Smith's swimming pool.
Jack and Flo were alone, and as Homer put it, "They weren't doing the
Australian crawl."

Smith became a bitter opponent of JFK after the Bay of Pigs. Smith, who
was a director of the the U.S. Sugar Corporation, had lost a lot of money as
a result of Castro gaining control of Cuba. In 1962 Smith wrote an account
of the Castro revolution entitled, The Fourth Floor.
Is it possible that Earl T. Smith was one of those who put the money up for
the assassination of JFK? He had both personal and economic reasons for
wanting him dead?
Picture below shows Smith and JFK discussing ways of keeping Florence
happy.

It's clear from the brace JFK is wearing that Flo wasn't good for his back
problem. But did he have to flaunt the problem in front of Earl?

John;
Just one example of the kinds of money and power which could, and in all
probability did, provide a portion of the motive for elimination of JFK.
As with other "links" in the chain, the link to Smith must be generated
through his money, power, position, and associations.
It is therefore quite unlikely that Mr. Smith had no connections to, and with
William Pawley.
Once we get to Pawley, then one can "branch" into both the Louisiana links in
this chain as well as those in Texas.

John F. Kennedy and George Smathers partied on the island. In December

politician had had a love affair some years before. The pleasure seeking
senators apparently never discussed the rebellion, although Smather's, as he
himself put it "had made a career of Cuban problems." Instead golf, sailing,
nightclubs, and women occupied their time. Crime boss Meyer Lansky's
widow claimed later that during that trip her husband helped locate women
to satisfy Kennedy's now-famed sexual athleticism. "Kennedy wasn't a great
casino man," remembered Smathers, "but the Tropicana night-club had a
floor show you wouldn't believe."

..Anticipating that the name "Paine" might arouse curiousity, here is some
background on Earl T. Smith's son-in-law. I can help thinking that Jupiter
Island, almost always referred to in print as "Hobe Sound", must have been a
crowded little
island....
