The revolution's heros engaged in suppression found El Diario difficult to sink because it had a reputation for responsibility and generous employment terms for its workers. Miguel Quevedo, whom Fidel of the Fifties embraced, and Francesco Pares, the editors of Bohemia Libre, were forced to publish in exile for a refugee readership.

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. And after a cordial interview with General Francisco Franco last month, he has made some plans to found a highbrow...
