Its purpose is for keeping the

It is the big vessel lor carrying
blood away from the heart.
It was the first such operation
here. Doctors said it is a rare one
anywhere.
Th natipnt's aorta walls had en

A total rupture was iean-u. me

Launches
on Press
mation in the United States" were
campaigning in "an increasing
crescendo and malicious form
against Guatemala for the purpose
of damaging the good relations
between the two countries."
Guatemala charged last week
that her Central American neigh
bors, "with the connivance" of the
United States, had been plotting
to wreck Arbenz' regime. The
President is not himself consid
ered a Communist but his govern
ment has received strong support
fiom the nation's Reds and has
gone out of its way to please them.
The U.S. State Department re
jected the accusation as "false and
ridiculous," a statement echoed by
tin other governments accused.
Gruson on his arrival here said
Guatemala had had "complete
freedom of the press up to now
. . . but I think the situation must
new be viewed in the light of these
latest developments."
He said Guatemala's strong
Communist faction had been mak
ing "extremely vicious" attacks In
the last few days on the indepen
dent press, which he said "has
been very critical of the Commu
nists at times."
The Guatemalan Foreign Office
statement has said Gruson "sys
tematically defamed and injured
this republic and its government
through the press, being one of the
most active agents of the cam-1
paign to bring them into disre
pute." The government objected par
ticularly to an article in which
Gruson wrote last November Ar
benz "has become a prisoner of
the embrace he so long ago gave
the Communists."
Bannell, who went to El Salva
dor, told NBC by telephone from
tliere that the network was charged
with trying to discredit Guatemala
by "inspiring and televising" a
bullfight riot last October. The dis
turbance, in which eight persons
were injured, occurred when 2,500
gatecrashers scrambled for scats
at the bullfight held in connection
with the opening of the national
exposition.
