while it seems clear that the arraiza family remained key owners of "montejurra" it is not known who initially was actually steering the monthly, be it as editor-in-chief or as a business manager. until 1966 none of the issues named a director, editor or redactor jefe; editorials were unsigned and emphasis seemed to be on collective work. historiographic works on carlism of the early 1960s usually single out ramón massó tarruella and pedro j. zabala sevilla as key engineers of the propaganda campaign mounted by the progressist faction of carlism, yet it is not known whether resident in madrid, they were in position to steer the pamplona-based monthly. the first individual singled out as "director" in 1966 was juan indave nuin, a 35-year-old engaged earlier in various carlist radio and press initiatives. later in 1966 he was replaced by maría blanca ferrer garcía, also in her mid-30s and apart from engagement in various navarrese press titles also a poet; she held the job until the early 1970. at this point victorino del pozo barbero became her temporary replacement, while the last "montejurra" director was fermina gil gonzález; no detail is known about her. it is noted that "montejurra" twice experienced major staff turnover: in 1964, probably related to marginalisation of massó, and in 1968, when a few graduates from the pamplona instituto de periodismo of universidad de navarra joined; they were led by fernando garcía romanillos. since early 1968 until the last issue josé maria echarri loidi was listed as "administrator".
