About eight months ago she joined the Communist Party.

She went bacx to Porto Rico two menths ago. 4 few days ago we read in a Porto Rican revolutiouary paper that our Ampara was making a successful speaking tour throughout Porto Rico and was being acclaimed as a leader of the workers Red Hook has its moments—and this was one of them.
