The Cubans have been economically active. but in most cases they have remained politically inactive. In fact. until very recently many have evidenced a reluctance to take up U.S. citizenship. There are a few outstanding reasons behind this political stagnation in the exile group. The refugees resent the fact that in the past our Government has discouraged the organization of responsible groups of men to fight for their homeland. They also cannot understand why we persist in intercepting their guerrilla task forces wishing to harass Castros regime and infiltrate Cuba. President Kennedys promise to see that the nation of Cuba would soon be free remains unkept.
