AUSTIN, Tex. Sept. 5 (AP)
Critically Ill Walter Williams

a-month State pension until II
Is legally proved he is not the
last surviving Confederate
veteran.
Gov. Price Daniel headed the
list Of State officials who yester-
day rejected q story earlier this
week from Washington that
the Houston centenarian is not
q veteran Of the Civil War.
"All Of the evidence avail
able in State Offices and Con-
federate records indicates that
Walter Williams is the last sur
viving Confederate veteran.
We shall respect and follow the
records of the State and the
Confederacy, rather than the
archives Of the Federal Govern
ment which have always been
recognized as incomplete with
respect to members of the Con-
federate armies" Gov. Daniel
said.

Charles Morris, Veterans AZ

The Washington story. by
Scripps-Howard Staff Writer
Lowell K. Bridwell, quoted an
Ohio woman who said she had
lived in Franklin, Tex, Mr..
Williams former home, and
many residents there thought
that Mr.. Williams had not
been in the war. 1t also said
census reports cast doubts on
MS being old enough to serve
then.
Wick Lindley, managing edi-
tor of the Bryan (Tex.) Daily

Bryan area have believed that
Mr.. Williams in his later years
confused himself with a
brother who served with Gen.
John B. Hood.

To End Crisis

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina
Sept. S (AP).-President Ar
turo Frondizi bowed to tn
demands of dissident arm,
leaders yesterday and brough
back as army commander lin
chief the general who was fire,
three days before.
The reappointment Of Gen
Carlos Torrance Montero ap
parently quelled a threatened
revolt by military chiefs.
The fast reshuffie ais,
brought the resignation of Ell
VIC Anaya as Secretary Of War
He was succeeded by Gen
Rodolfo Larcher, a friend o
Gen. Torrance Montero and hi
army supporters.
Gen. Torrance Montero Thurs
day night defied Mr.. Anaya'
orders with the backing o,
what he claimed was IS pei
cent Of all Argentine Army Of
flcers.
Normal Measures" Planned
The stocky. 57-year-old gen.
eral said he would order onlJ
normal measures" in reas-
Stunning his post. He addec
that a few military chief;
would be retired.
A worn-looking Mr.. From
dizi declined to talk with re-
porters when he left Govern
ment House late yesterday after
crisis talks that began Thurs
day night.
Before the word came that
he was back as army chief,
Gen. Torrance Montero had an
nounced he was pleased with
the results Of the secret nego-
tiations he had with Mr.. From
dizi.
Gen. Torrance Montero pre-
cipitated the crisis Tuesday by
challenging Mr.. Anaya's order
firing him as army boss.
Details Not Disclosed
The general refused to dis
close details of the settlement,
but said he had pledged ODE
dience to the President of the
nation"
THE solution is in his
hands. I am very satisfied. The
solution is highly satisfactory"
he added.
The general said that at mo
time was constitutional order
affected" The problem was
purely a military one. not po-
litical, he said.
Four generals and one colonel
among II officers arrested on
Mr.. Anaya's orders in the wake
of Gen. Torrance Montero,s
custer. were freed. The re-
mainder are expected to be re-
leased soon.
The tension that had gripped
the nation relaxed as word
spread of the settlement.
Several commanders Of in
terror army garrisons who were
hackers Of Mr.. Anaya moved
to resign their commissions
They are to be replaced by
commanders considered close
to Gen. Torrance Montero
thereby bringing about the re-
shuttle he demanded and which
caused his dismissal.
Larcher in Key Role
Gen. Larcher played a key
role in negotiations Thursday
night between Mr.. Frondizi and
Gen. Torrance Montero's forces
who had barricaded themselves
at the army mechanical school
in the heart Of the capital.
Gov. Larcher was a partic-
ipant in the 1851 abortive revolt
against ex-Argentine Dictator
Juan D. Peron. He then re-
signed from the army, but re-
turned to active service after
the successful revolution OF
1855 which sent Peron into
exile.

New Note Sent
Cuba on U. S.
Sugar Interests
BY the Associated Press

The United States has sent a
new note to Cuba dealing with
treatment of American interests
there, it was learned here.
The NOTES.-The contents Of
which were not divulged-pre-
sumably wasaelivered to Cuban
authorities by United States
Ambassador Philip Bonsal in
Havana.
It was said to have been
under preparation for some
days.
The note, it is believed, is
principally a restatelnent Of the
United States position on
Cuba's plans to take over
United States owned sugar
plantations under the contro-
versial agrarian reform law.
In a note earlier this year the
United States indicated that
Cuba was within its rights in
taking over such property, If II
so wished, but that compensa-
ton for the owners should be
prompt and fair.
Under the agrarian reform
law the Cuban govei nment is
authorized to exproprlate lands
with repayment to be in Cuban
bonds payable over a 20.yeal
period and bearing 4 per cent
interest.
