Argentina Home News

BUENOS AIRES, July AR
gentine newspaper readers are get
ting more news about what is going
on in their country, although some
of it is reaching them by way of the
United States.
This unusual situation, in which
Argentine papers often publish do
mestic stories under New York
dateline, is result of the freedom
from censorship lately granted to
foreign correspondents.
The Argentine press lacks the
guarantees given United States cor
respondence and experience has
taught Argentine editors to be wary.
AS a result, dispatches published in
the United States under a Buenos
Aires dateline are transmitted back
to Argentina by American news
services, and often are republished
here under the datelines of New
York and other North American
cities.
For example, yesterdays news
papers published under New York
dateline a dispatch sent the New
York Times by it's Buenos Aires
correspondent, Arnaldo Cortesi, in
which Mr.. Cortesi reported receiving
a telephone warning against false
tendencies" in his stories of the
Argentine political situation.
Another item consisted of a dis
patch sent by Correspondent Joseph
Newman to the New York Herald
Tribune interpreting an Argentine
Supreme Court decision as a blow
to the military regime.
United States correspondents ver-
sions of alleged tortures of Argen-
tine political prisoners and quarrels
in government circles also have
been printed in recent weeks.
