Campaigning Against
Newspapers and Radio
BY the Asseeiaied Press

BUENos AIRES, Nov. IS, - The

that the government was responsible
for the criminal charges which were
filed BY private citizen accusing
the newspapers La Prensa and La
Nacion Of evading customs duties.
It said such report to the New
York Times was completely false"
and typical of "evil- l-intentioned"
journalism. The government wanted
to deny the report specifically, the
statement said, so that silence could
not be interpreted as confirmation.
The fact that the story could be
sent out of the country, the state
ment said, showed that the press
was free In Argentina.
(The New York Times carried
Monday Buenos Aires dispatch
by It's correspondent, Frank l..
KluckhOIn, which said the ac.
tion filed in the Argentine Fed
eral Court October 81 was aimed
at driving the two world famous
Argentine dailies out Of business.

discussed, and that according to

was asked to find ways and
means of driving Nacion and
