President Batista. of Cuba. is under pressure and one of the strongest opponents of communism in this hemisphere. the Dominican Republic. is under murderous assault from not only Latin American points. but right here in the United States as well. I know of no case In recent history where exiles have been able to stir up such venom in the United States. or where exiles are so vitriolic in their desires to produce punishment or revolution. as in the case of the Dominican Republic. This is. indeed. strange departure from the usual customs of where refugees. many of whom fled from conditions admittedly far worse than in the Western Hemisphere. who are glad to be here and away from those terrorized homelands to forget all and become good citizens. It would not surprise me to learn Communist forces supply much of the energy which makes up this strange program. Strange. too. is the fact that President Pigueres presides over Costa Rica. where about 9 years ago communism was outlawed by official act.
