Guido named new war and navy secretar ies today to back up his pledge to give this strife-torn nation early general elections. The embattled president, firmly backed by a majority of Argentina s armed forces, moved swiftly to return nor malcy to the country. In a na tion-wide radio and television speech to the people Sunday night, reporting on the violent week end which saw a major shift in the leadership of the armed forces, Guido warned sternly against any resump tion of armed violence. Tells Appointment The president reported early today the appointment of Lt. Gen. Benjamin Rattem bach and Rear Adm. Carlos A. Kolugia to be secretaries of war and navy, respectively. Guido said the two men would be sworn into their new posts immediately. The weekend of violence, pitting rival army factions against each other in a do-or die struggle tor power, was Argentina's first intramural conflict in the armed forces in more than two years. The fighting was brief but vicious. When the smoke cleared, downtown Buenos Aires was scarred with ma chine gun bullets and tank shells. At least 10 persons were reported dead' and 70 wounded. But Guido had emerged with a clear-cut vic tory and apparently stronger than ever. Military winner in the fac tional struggle was Gen. Juan Carlos Ongania, named new army commander by the president. The former army command er, Gen. Juan Carlos Lorio, and his chief of staff, Gen. Bernadrino Labayru, were among 77 army officers under rrcsl. A communique from the president's office this morn ing said the president had ac cepted the resignation of the navy secretary, Rear Adm. Gaston Clement. The navy had announced its opposition Guido and Gen. Ongania t one point during the crisis. but naval forces kept out of the fighting. The president - also urged ear Adm. Augustln Penas, chief of naval operations, to retract or take responsibility for a communique issued by high naval officials over the weekend and charging the president with causing the fight among army factions. Experts Prepare To Remove Chlorine Gas From Sunken Mississippi Barge Natchez, Miss-fllPlt- Experts studied scale models of a sunken barge today to plan the delicate task of raising more than two million pounds of deadly chlorine which menaces about 80,000 persons aiong me Mississippi river near here. ine raising, scheduled to begin next Monday, will be a touchy one. If one of the four 73-foot chlorine cylin ders springs a leak, the liquid would combine with water to generate poisonous chlorine gas. A . team of salvage experts from the New England, Naval and Maritime museum in Newport, R.I., left there to day for Natchez to attempt recovery of the cylinders. They included Jackson Jenks, director of the museum; Ralph Mercier, Hartford, Conn., and Walter Hendricks, Windsor Locks, Conn., divers expert In handling fragile materials. Jenks said he was told that the operation would be dan gerous because visibility in the river near Natchez is zero. The Red Cross already has prepare more than 200 shel ters for use in case residents along the river have to be evacuated. About 165,000 cots and 190 tons of bedding have been flown into areas near the threatened section and Missis sippi Gov. Ross Barnett Sun. day asked President Kennedy to declare "an extreme na. tional emergency" in the area. Chief sections threatened by the gas are six counties along the river-three in Mis sissippi and three in Louisiana. The barge Eastern, carry ing 1,100 tons of the chlorine, sank in the river a year and a half ago. Kennedy last week ordered the Corps of Engineers to raise the wreck age which is located about Regional Edition Medford Page 2-A Tribune seven and a half miles down. stream from here. The engineers Sunday used suction hoses to draw off an accumulation of Mississippi river silt and said they found the barge was buckled in the middle. The four tanks, construct ed independently of one an other and apart from the barge, were not bent and ap peared in good shape. A scale model of the East ern has been made to help plan its removal. ; for Fast, itW IMleient Service Ship It ffegLASME "ly ' to er from HL. Oakland.
