President Juan Peron Picking New Cabinet Following Resignations By JIMMIE PAYNE BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Wl President Juan Peron worked on a new Cabinet lineup today after telling the Argentine people he is staying in office only because they need him. "If I were not strengthened by the imiportance to me of the peo ple," he said in a nationwide broadcast last night,' "I would abandon the government this very day. If I havo not done it, it was because I really fear the conse- quences my selfishness would bring down on the nation." Peron's broadcast reviewing the bloody revolt last week came only a few hours after his 16-man Cab inet resigned. The presidential press secretariat said the minis ters wanted to let the President reshuffle the government as he wished. The broadcast and the mass res ignation appeared to be new evi dence that Peron had retained his grip on Argentina, despite specu lation and rumors that the revolt had weakened his power. The ra dio speech was the President's first public utterance since Satur day. get a new BROWNIE HAWKEYE CAMERA Flash Model for the America's favorite far map shooting Indoors and out.

Dulles Tells Russians To Stop Using Force (Continued from Paga One) much of the trouble today. These organizations were based on the spirit of the U.N. Charter, he said, backed by these organizations, which had led to the solution of major problems. Then, in sarcastic language, he took up the problems which Molo tov had listed in his speech as having been solved. The Korean War. he said, was ended only aft er U.N. forces had repelled Com munist .aggression. "It is indeed strange." he said "to hear this triumnh of collective security now hailed as proof of the pcaccloving character of the aggressor and its supporters. If they had had their way, we wouid today be commemorating the fifth anniversary of the demise of the United Nations." Dulles said further: The Indochina fighting was end ed by agreement In Geneva, but only after the United States and other nations made it clear that continued fighting might call for collective action wilhin the frame wnrk nf the U.N. charter. The Austrian treaty should have been signed years ago, but it was delayed while one of its occupy ing powers exploited its economy for a fiecade. Yugoslav-Soviet relations have been improved but they were bad in the first place only because Yugoslavia had broken away from "an al en vokc." The recent Soviet overture to West Germany and Japan came only after years of abuse and Hos tility from Russia. Lasting Peace Is Coal For U.
