Card carriers or sympathizers in key civilian spots include: Carlos Franqui, former proofreader on the Red daily Hoy and now editor of Castro's paper La Revolution (circ. 80,000); David Salvador, chief of the labor federation; Francisco Alonso, head of the National Fine Arts Commission; Vicentina Antuña, chief of the National Institute of Culture...
