Uprising in Cuba Dominates Weekly Dispatches
A week of foreign dispatches highlights a Cuban uprising with Pino Guerra and other leaders allegedly directed by a Havana veterans committee. Insurgent action grows in Santa Clara and western provinces, with raids, armed bands, and tensions escalating near Havana. Government claims of repulse contrast with insurgent reports of battles near Las Lajas and San Antonio de los Banos as 7,000 rebels in Pinar del Rio and 2,000 in other zones prepare for larger operations. Amid political strains, Palma and Mendez Capote face tensions over potential leadership changes as unrest sweeps western Cuba.
