...Washington's press corps was roundly scooped. The Miami Spanish-language paper Diario Las Americas published the story first on Sunday, but was ignored.

El Diario, on the other hand, is moving into a larger building this month; more up-to-date presses will enable it to increase its pages from 48 to 60 or more. Encouraged by his New York success, Roy Chalk is now considering starting other editions of El Diario in Miami or Los Angeles.
