steps to release at least some. Most
political prisoners, therefore. were
freed today but there are still many
others behind the walls. 1t was after

laya became pronounced, for those who
have been crying for the revolution
were fully convinced that blnejackets

landed
Now they are terrified lest no men
be sent ashore. In such an event they
fear reprisals by the Zeiaya forces.
Many revolutionary suspects have been
thrown into prison and put to tor
ture. and there are a number also now
in chains who refused To do the bid
ding of the government. Among these
is Anibal Chavez. an army officer. in
command of the firing squad when
Groce and Cannon were brought out
for execution. He refused to give the
firing order. exclaiming as he threw
down his sword: Il am a soldier. not
