The Vice-President of the United States of America,
MIR. Richard M. Nixon, is currently visiting South America.
With this tour, he will have visited nearly every nation
In the Western Hemisphere.
1t is a good sign that the main reason for this trip
was to be present at the Inauguration of the new COnSti
tutiOnal President of Argentina, DR.. Arturo FrOndiZi, which
marks the beginning of a new democratic era in the Ar
gentine Nation. After participating in the demonstration
OF solidarity with the democratic regimes of America,
Vce-PreSident Nixon will visit in other South American
countries, as he did a few days ago in Uruguay.
1t Is encouraging that high officials of the United
States Government visit other nations of the world, no
longer just as a sign of official amity, but for the purpose
OF making contact with many people who, at the given
moment, might not be able to meet in, say, Washington or
New York, Chicago or Miami. These visits, however
short i'm duration they might be, reflect a democratic intent
in that United States officials seek to make contact with
the people.
Whenever VicePresident Nixon has visited any ma
n0n, ne, has listened not only to government officials, pro-
he has also, as a symbol of American life, gone to the core
of the people and talked and debated with the common man,
the average man of the country visited. Thus, concerning
the very important problems presented to him, as far as
those referring to raw materials, prices, lack of dollar
exchange, etc, Richard M. Nixon seeks to get also the
reaction of the people themselves, speaking directly with
the average man and woman and transmitting to them,
with his presence and talks, the deep interest of the United
States in their current problems. The visits of Vice-Presi-
the people. VI
In all his trips, Vice-PreSident Nixon has been &C.
cOmpanied by a person who not only helps him but adds
a touch OF grace to the visits, Mrs. Pat Nixon, who. while
the Vice-President attends to official dealings alone. she
visits hospitals, nurseries, schools, etc, bringing to them the
feelings of good will of American WOmanhOOd toward their
fellow men in other countries.

BUENOS AIRES, (UP).-Artu-
70 Frondizi was sworn in today as
president of Argentina at a glitt-
ering joint session of Congress.
But u. S. vice president Richard
M. Nixon, who Travelled all the
way from Washington, missed the
actual oath-taking ceremony.
Nixon and representatives of 81
other nations were in Buenos
Aires to see Frondizi and Vice
President Alexandra Gomez take
over control of the government
following their victory in Agen-
tina's first completely free presi-
Dental election in 80 years.
But when the actual oath was
administered to the new presi-
dent, Nixon was not in the con-
gressional chamber. His chair be-
tween the delegate from the Vati-
can and the one from Bolivia
was empty during the ceremony.
Aides at the U. S. embassy said
Nixon arrived at the Congress
building promptly at 10 am. but
found the ceremony had started
earlier than scheduled.
The scene was the most bril-
liant since the days before busted
Dictator Juan D. Per6n reached
power in 1916. All members of
the new free = elected congress
were dressed in white ties and
tails or dinner jackets. Their
wives looked on, dressed in ele-
CANT gowns. In the audience, the
array of foreign ENJOYS appeared
resplendent with medals, cere-
monial swords and decorations,
while officers of the armed forces
sparkled in gala dress uniforms.
Frondizi and Gomez spoke to
the nation over a special radio
TV hookup before driving to the
Congress to receive the insignia
of office from their predecessors
- Gen. Pedro E. Aramburu and
Rear Adm. Isaac Rojas.

ling opposition to Peron. But it
has been plagued by intra-party
feuds, and with no foe to unite
it the possibility of their recur-
renee must be recognized. An
uneasy aspect of the situation is
that there is evidence that from
exile, Per6n threw strong support
to Frondizi and even supplied the
balance of power in the election.
"But for the moment, the sig

sends politics. Rather, it supplies
the browning proof that for all of

much of Argentine life a travesty

reasons, this will be difficult. But

WASHINGTON. (UP). The
United States delegation in the
Organization of American States
(OAS) proposed a resolution di-
rected to eliminate the "impracti-
cal and unrealistic" projects from

John Dreier, U. S. ambassador

change the finance commission
into a budget and programs COM
mission, which besides examining
the budget, assigns priorities to
the proposed programs of the
Union.
Eduardo Garcia, from Argent,
ne, President Of the GAS, said the
proposal will be considered in the
general commission to be debated
in other session. The Brazilian and
Mexican delegates, Fernando Lo-

vely, approved the idea.
Dreier said the Council needs
more Intervention in the activities
approved by the finance commits
sion. AS things stand now, the fl.
nance commission approves pro-
jects until funds r available.
Dreier said that his proposition
tends to oblige the finance com.
mission to consider all projects
and approve the activities biased
on certain facts, the norm of the
Organization among them, the
needs of their member countries
and the numerous technical consi
derations'. He added that "the

EXPRESSES CONFIDENCE
IN NATIONS FUTURE

In his first official message tg
the country after taking office,
Frondizi said the economic situa-
ton of Argentina was dramatic"
but he had confidence that the
people could dominate it.
"We r in a crisis but we have
no fear of it. Our aim is to build
an economy of abundance. The
way to accomplish that is to pro-
mote the rapid and strong national
capitalization based on social JUS
tice. We will thereby foster a de-
velopment which the country has
full capacity to undertake.
Frondizi said the country should
reunite and live in the future in
internal peace. "We should forget
past animosities, eliminatea all
thoughts of revenge and persecu.
ton which may still exist.
He added:
From now on the armed forces
will not do the deciding. Now the
people decide through their repre-
sentatives. The armed forces IAN.
not have groups, clubs or factions.
Party politics is excluded.
"We will accept private capitale
he said, Gin places where official
resources are not sufficient but
without giving up any concessions
now held by the state and without
renouncing any rights we already
hold over u own riches.
This apparently was an admis-
sion that foreign capital might be
allowed to participate in the de-
velopment Of Argentine oil SO
long as it operated under state
control. At present a state owned
oil monopoly known as Y. P. F.
operates all petroleum establish
ments. Argentina is spending $500
million yearly to import foreign
