They have to worry whether Castro has really discarded the socialistic beliefs that he held earlier, including drastic land reforms and nationalization of U.S.-owned power companies. Castro persists in the cane-burning campaign - a pointless waste of the country's wealth that may well anger many Cubans. Up in the hills, notes one conservative rebel with a mixture of admiration and fear, "he acts like a King before the Magna Carta, sitting under a tree and dispensing justice."
