 Most news of requeté activity, scarce as they were, came traditionally either from Catalonia or Levante.The latter region was somewhat privileged as this is where the party leader, marqués de Villores, resided; at times he appeared in public with the local Valencian leader, Pelayo Beltrán Ripollés.In May 1930 Don Jaime called the Carlist leaders to Paris and set up Comité de Acción.
