Lonardi named president by
rebel forces in Argentina
Peron's fate not
disclosed by new
government
BUENOS AIRES (/P) Argen
tina's rebel forces today won a
peace agreement — apparent
ly with unconditional surren
der — from the loyalist fol
lowers of Juan D. Peron.
The rebels established Maj.
Gen. Eduardo Lonardi as pro
visional (temporary) president
of the nation. ,
A brief communique did
not disclose Peron’s fate, but
the rebels in their four-day
revolt gave as one olf their con
ditions of surrender the • hand
irig over of the man who ruled
Argentina for a decade. The
last authoritative information
had him aboard a Paraguayan
gunboat in Buenos Aires har
bor.
The communique read over
the state radio said the two
Sides had reached “complete
accord” and the loyalist for
ces had “accepted the points
stipulated by the rebels.”
The rebels had announced
before peace negotiations be
gan that they would accept
only an unconditional surren
der.
Lonardi in 1951 retired vol
untarily from the army after
writing a letter .protesting the
plan — l’ater abandoned — to
designate Eva Peron as vice
president. He was active in a
shortlived revolution in 1951.
and in 19(52 was included in a
group reported under arrest
for plotting algiainst Peron.
He began his anmy career
in 1914 and rose to command
of the 3rd army.

< Gunfire sounded in Buenos

the peace was announced.
Tank gains blasted apart the
main headquarters of the Ali
anza Nationalist, Peron’s
strong-arm alliance. Later, se
lurity forces were reported to
be occupying an Alianza bra
nch eight blocks from the
smoldering headquarters.
Proclamations broadcast ov
er the state radio today car
ried the name of Gen. Jose
Domingo Molina as “command
er in chief of the army.” Mo

loyalist junta that took over
the central government after
Peron’s fall. Whether he would
be army commander under Lo
na rdi was not immediately
clear.
Claims Peron taken
Jilt .AP stays not so
NEW YORK W) A Mutual
broadcasting system cordespon
dent in Buenos Aires reported
today that Juan D. Peron “is
now in rebel hands.”
The (correspondent, Jack Com
den, said Peron was taken off
the Paraguayan gunboat where
he took refuge yesterday. He
predicted Pedon would be tried
as a war criminal by the new
Argentine government.
The Associated Press bureau
in Buenos Aires said it had no
confirmation of this report.
The Mutual broadcasting re
port said Peron was taken off
the boat without (a struggle
shortly after noon Argentine
time. But several hours after
that officers of the gunboat
told the AP that Peron was
still aboard the 636 ton craft.
An AP staff man went aboard
the boat at 4:10 p, m. An offic
er who asked not to be identif
ied said Peron was aboard un
der Paraguay’s protection —
“perhaps a bit uncomfortable,
but safe.”

Hunt lor baby still
on in California;
search widens
SAN FRANCISCO CP) Discov
ory of a baby’s hospital receiv,
ing (blanket spurred a house to
house search today in San Jose
50 miles south of San Francisco
for the kidnapped newborn
son of a doctor. The baby was
taken Monday from Mt. Zion
hospital by a buxom woman,
presumably motivated by a
■•mothering urge.”
The blanket was iound five
blocks from a home where a
woman carrying a baby stop
ped yesterday morning and ask
ed to have milk heated.
Police began ringing door- j
bells throughout a suburban j
neighborhood in the widening
hunt for baby Robert Marcus1
but search also was pressed in
San Francisco and in Marin
county, northward across the
Golden Gate.
j The blanket was described
I as pink, white and blue, a fact
j which cast doubt on it beinlg
the Marcus original one. Mt.
Zion has pink or blue blankets
but not mixed colors.
Robert, just three days old
when kidnapped from the nur
sery at Mt. Zion hospital, is a
son of Dr. and Mrs. Sanford
Marcus. He had been breast
fed and had been eircumsized
only a few hands before he dis
appeared.
'Mrs. Hanna Marcus, the
child’s 29 year old mother, was
in a state of collapse and was
given sedatives.
Her husband explained “both
| her parents and her younger
brother died in Hitler’s gas
j chambers.” When 13 years old
: sihe had been smuggled into
j Holland, then went to England
| She met Dr. Marcus at Phil
1 adelphia in 1948.
