In addition to the ordinary telephone system in Havana, there is a government telephone system which uses the exchange name PIZARRA, connecting all offices of government organizations and government- sponsored enterprises. Each government office or enterprise has at least one PIZARRA telephone which is distinct from the regular telephone system. In the Direzcion G'neral de Intoligencia (General Dircctorate of Intelligenc7 - DGI) Headquarters, there I- a PIZARRA telephone controlled by Manuel PIEIRO Losada's secretary, Vidalina, who works in M building. If any member of the DGI wishes to call anyone on sensitive business through the PIZAiRA exchang.e, he may either state his requirements to Vidalina, who wl1 make the :all for him and report the informa- tion back when she has acquired it, or go to M building and make the call himself on the PIZARRA telephone. With the exception of PIAEIR1O's residence ani 6ffice, where he has his own PIZARRA telephone, ano other DGI office has a PIZARRA telephone. There is no directory for PIZARRA numbers and it is not a dial system, but works through a central switchboard with operators; it is con- sidered secure. The caller picks up the telephone and gets an operator on the contral PIZAPRA switchboard; the caller asks for the offloce to whichhe wishes to speak, and, if he knows, asks for the person to whcm hc wishes, to speak. A DGI officer whose office s on side of M buildine ma call into M building on the regular line 2-2555) and ask- 1o Viainia. 2. Each DGI office has a number of private (as opposed to PIZARRA) telephones. In the Departamento de 14beracion Nacional (National Liberation Dzpartm.mnt - LN), outside the M building headquarters, for example, there are six telcphones. From these telephones one dials any niumber in th telephone directory, private or a govern- ment office number, direct.
