14 Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Wednesday, Feb. 13, 1946 United States Accuses Argentina of Conspiracy By Ralph Heinzen Washington, Feb. 13 U.R) The United States Tuesday accused Argentina of wartime collaboration, espionage, hemisphere in trigue and aid to nazi Germany. The state department delivered to all other American republics 7- except Argentina a "Blue Book, based on documents captured in Germany. Citing a 500 per cent increase In Argentine military credits in the past four years, the "Blue Book" accuses Argentine totali tarian groups of combining with nazi leaders and organizations to create a nazi-fascist state. Argentina was accused of a conspiracy to obtain arms from Germany, of attempting to un dermine the inter-American sys tem and of making mockery of Its pledge to the United Nations to "reaffirm faith in human rights and in the dignity and worth of the human person." Much Other Proof The United States said the in dictment contains only a small proportion of the proof of Ar- Slate's Pride Only in Danger Berkeley, Calif., Feb. 13 W)- An eruption of Crater lake wouldn't damage anything but Oregon's pride and the tourist trade. That's the indication from a report by Dr. Howel Williams, famed volcanologist who is probably the world's greatest authority on the Crater lake region. The University of California geology professor said that if Mount Mazama the extinct volcano in whose crater the lake now lies erupts again, the ex plosion would not be violent. But "an eruption today would kill a lot of fish, and would ruin the beautiful blue color of the lake," Williams added. , Williams, who studied the crater over a five-year period, said that once a volcano col lapses there is little chance of violent activity. An eruption 'considered possible by geolo gists since the lake began "burp ing" huge smoke clouds "wouldn't kill people," Williams said. "Furthermore, I doubt if there Is even enough activity in the volcano to produce a cone high enough to rise above the level of the lake, which is 2000 feet deep." , Elinor Fox Named Home Service Worker Mrs. Elinor Fox is the new home service worker on the staff at Marion county chapter, American ttca Cross, her op pointment being approved ai this week's meeting of the chap ter board.

Salem Owned and Salem Represented 1132 Broadway Ph. 8496 gentina's pro-German activity in its hands. This country In vited the other American re publics to state their views on the charges. It was charged that high Ar gentine officials were so seri ously compromised in their re lations with the enemy that trust and confidence "could not be reposed in that government." That statement was interpreted as a bid for joint action to break off diplomatic relations with the present military regime in Buenos Aires. I The American publication specifically named Col. Juan D. Peron. head of a military junta that took over the Argentine government, as "a principal leader" of the Argentine con spirators. Peron is accused of spurring the Brazilian integral ists and of making similar ef forts with domestic pro-axis forces in Paraguay and Uru guay. The "Blue Book" said ar enormous volume of documents found hidden and scattered throughout Germany have been catalogued, studied and verified. On basis of these, the U. S. government made its five major accusations: Indictments Listed 1. Members of the (Argen tine) military government col laboratcd with enemy agents for important espionage and other purposes damaging to the war effort of the United Nations. 2. Nazi leaders, groups and organizations have combined with the Argentine totalitarian groups to create a nazi-fascist state in Argentina. 3. Members of the military regime who have controlled the government since June, 1943, conspired with the enemy to undermine governments in neighboring countries, to de stroy their collaboration with the allies and to align them in a pro-axis bloc. 4. Successive Argentine gov ernments protected the enemy in economic matters in order to preserve axis industrial and commercial power in Argentina. 5. Successive Argentine gov ernments conspired with the enemy to obtain arms from Germany. In the case of Bolivia, the U. S. offered reports from Ger man archives to support an ac cusation that Peron and other Argentine military leaders promised Bolivia lower tariff barriers and the construction of a new railroad between Argen tina and Bolivia if the latter abandoned the good neighbor bloc in favor of the axis. jC 1 i K ' 4mw Jill V a,, I Delos James Jarrelt Consultant On Street Lighting Chester W.
