"Spanish Democratic Front" (Cuba), PEPE was invited to

Caracas by the "Union of the spanish Combatants." .'

Mis contacts were especially with VELO (JOSE). The

latter asked him to go to Europe

and more particularly

to a congress of the different anti-Franquist

organizations; the purpose of that congress was to

bring closer together the different views which mani

fested themselves in those organizations, with a view

to common action against the present Spanish Government.
