Calm Is Asked
|AsPeron Puts
Down Arms

BUENoS AIRES. Argentina,
July 16 R.-The semiofficial
newspaper Democracia warned
President .Ian D. Peron's politi-
cal opponents today that Argen-
tina must become completely
calm before normal political life
can be restored.
An editorial in the paper which
regularly reflects government
views said the presidents speech
yesterday proclaimihg an end of
the revolution he has led. said:
"Peronism has laid down its
fighting arms now begins
the stage of pacification. But
'pacification should not be con-
fused with absolute institutional
normality: with complete play
of legal resources"
Gradual Approach
1t said normal constitutional
government can be approached
only gradually.
Gen. Peron declared he is
stepping down "aS chief of the
revolution to become the Presi-
dent OF all Argentines. friends
and foes" He implied their life
will be freer.
In a speech to PeroniSta Party
Congressman in the Government
House, Gen. Peron said: 1.-THE
Peronista revolution has COM
pleted its detectives now
begins a new era of a constitu-
tional character without revolu-
tions because the permanent
state of the country cannot be
revolutionary"
Elected In 1916
Gen. Peron burst into the po-
litical spotlight as an Army coll
onel after the June. 1943, revo-
luton and was the behind-the-
scenes-power under three presi-
dents before the l946 elections
in which he became the consti-
tutional president. But Gen. Pc
ron has always characterized his
government as the revolutionary
rule for new Argentina"
Now my situation has, abso-
lutely changed and thus I must
return all limitations which have
been made in the country on
procedures and methods of our
foes. imposed by necessity to
fulfill objectives, to let them act
freely within the law with all
guarantees Of rights and free
doms," he told the congress-
men.
II do not believe this is the
moment to start below the belt
controversies. What we need is
that they (political opponents)
say if they want pacification,
to reach it by friendly negotia-
tions and if they do not want
it to let us accomplish it de-
spite theme. Pacification is
our unrenounceable objective.
