             JUNTA REVOLUCIONARIO CUBANA  (JURE)


      In a Miami press interview on July 23, 1962, Manuel Ray

 Rivero announced the formation of JURE, an anti-Castro Cuban

 exile group designed to unite all the popular splintered

 factions outside Cuba into an effective working organization.1

.Other key leaders involved in the new organization included

Felipe  Pazos, Raul Chibas, Rogelio Cisneros, Ramon Barquin and

Justo  Carrillo.2   Although Ray felt. the Cuban Revolutionary

Council was  no longer effective, he attempted to receive

financial  assistance from it until JURE gained momentum.3

      As its opening promotional salvo, JURE issued a

 Declaration of Principles.  It called for free elections,

 the restoration of human rights and social justice, new

 economic developmeht programs and agrarian reform, breaking

 relations with the.Soviet bloc, restoration of legitimate

 property, proscription of the Communist Party and release of
                     4
 political prisoners.

      Ray's group was considered an autonomous anti-Castro

 Cuban group by the CIA.5  -The concept of autonomous operations

 was conceived by Walter Rostow, State Department counsel.6

 Rostow proposed a track two approach to Cuban operations to

 parallel  regular CIA-controlled Cuban teams.7   This approach

 would enable the CIA to give financial aid, advice and
