CUBANS OF TO-DAY 



At the beginning of the World War, 

 Rivero,as editor of the Diario de la Marina, 

 did not conceal his pro-German sympathies 

 but, from the time when the United States 

 and Cuba threw in their lot with the Allies, 

 he corrected his course and became a par- 

 tisan of the Allied cause, making his paper 

 one of the strongest organs of propaganda 

 in Cuba. 



Besides being a journalist, Serior Rivero 

 is an author and has published: Recuerdos 

 de un viaje por Espana; El Colorado; Re- 

 cuerdos de Mejico; Veinte dias en automovil.
