Uncharges Nazis Have Built In Argentina Replica Of Economic War Machine That Was Used In Germany WASHINGTON, Feb. 13 (JP) In a warning to the world Tues day the United States charged that nazis have built in Argen tina a complete copy of the eco nomic war machine they had in Germany and now possess the .. essentials for reorganizing their fighting power while the allies occupy the German homeland. The warning was set forth in a 40.000 word blue book on Argentina distributed to the otlv er American governments as part of the current inter-American consultations on the Buenos Aires regime. State department officials in making it public said Argentina was not included in these inter . government talks. Aided Naxis Based largely on nazi docu ments captured in a German salt mine, the department de nounced the successive Argen tina governments for having given "'positive aid" to the axis during the war. The department said the evi dence justified conclusions that: 1. The totalitarian individuals and groups controlling the Ar gentine government now aim to set up a totalitarian state and that this is already "partly ac complished." 2. Its "brutal use of force and terrorist methods . . . the mili tary regime has made a mock ery of its pledge to the United Nations" to reaffirm faith in hu man rights. 3. Ever since the allies in vaded Europe, Argentina had been adopting a "defensive strategy to camouflage" and that its "repeated avowals of pro democratic intentions" proceed from this Dlan. 4. The policies and actions of tne recent regimes m Argentina were aimed at undermining the inter-American system. Noting that over half of last year's budget in Argentina was spent for building up Argen tina's armed forces, the depart ment declared tnat in Argen tina the Germans have construct ed a complete duplicate of the economic structure for war they had in Germany." Economic Organization "They possess," he continued, "today in Argentina the econom ic organization industrial, com mercial and agricultural which they need to provide a base for the reconstitution of German ag gressive power during the pe riod when the homeland is still occupied. "The industries essential to warfare in which experimenta tion in the weapons of future wars may take place and in which prototypes may be devel oped exist in Argentina and are controlled by Germans." The department further said that businesses which can be re lied upon "to provide reserves for future aggression in countries destined for conquest, continue to exist." The state department listed 21 of what it called the "more no torious" spies and subversive agents in Argentina and the Ger man firms with which they are associated. It also reviewed in detail the manner in which it contends the government has taken over con trol of the labor unions, sup pressed opposition by "brutal use of force and terrorist methods," and subsidized a pro-nazi press to keep the nazi ideology alive. State Union Frequently mentioning the part played by Col. Juan Peron, former vice president and cur rently presidential candidate, the department noted that Peron as minister of labor in 1944 brought all labor unions under government control "into one giant syndicate or state union. "Since 1943 no Argentine union has had a free election," he declared. The "blue book" also charged that Argentina has protected German businesses and interests along with nazi individuals. "German capital, German or German-linked management, German militarism and German fascism have long exerted a ma- Tule Land To Be Open For Homesteading This Summer More Tule lake land will be open for homesteading to veter ans sometime in mid-summer 1946. This announcement was made today by the Klamath Falls office of the U. S. bureau of reclamation. The regional office of the bu reau at Sacramento is drafting Salem Wants Rent Control SALEM, Feb. 13 (JP) The Salem trades and labor council and the newly-organized World War II post of the American Le gion appealed to the OPA last night to establish rent ceilings in Salem. Salem had rent control by citv ordinance, but it expired last November 15. Since then, rents have skyrocketed. The Salem Capital Journal, which is con ducting a rent-reducing cam paign, quoted federal housing authority heads as saying that Salem rents are the highest in Oregon. City officials warned that un less landlords cut rents, they will go back to local control. Both the labor and veterans group, however, oppose local control, asserting federal control is more effective and that it also could apply outside the city lim its. The veterans resolution said that returning veterans "are dis mayed and angered to discover that their return and readjust ment to civilian life is being de liberately thrown out of gear by unscrupulous landlords with short memories." German POW's To Sail For Homeland FORT LEWIS, Feb. 13 (JP) Two groups of . German prison ers will sail from Tacoma this week for their homeland, but their departure will leave some other prisoners still at Fort Lewis.

Two hundred schools in Argen tina are either nazi controlled or strongly influenced by the Germans, it said. ...or WOll INfiLISl HO MBBINC WU makes linoleum like without rubbing!

Ore., Feb. 13 (JP) A proposal to promote a state wide "jobs for veterans" cam paign patterned after wartime bond drives was made here to the state legislative interim com mittee on veterans affairs.

"The trade feels It will be per haps July before every woman has perhaps half a dozen pairs put away," Deputy Price Ad ministrator Geoffrey Baker told the house appropriations com mittee during consideration of an OPA supply bill approved to day.
