l The political picture in Ar
gentina following the downfall
of dictator Juan Peron is de
veloping very slowly.
Alberto Gaina Paz, publish
er of the famous newspaper La
jprensa which Peron took over,
pays he (believes the military
junta will eventually dissolve
into a return to democratic
^government, but admits strong
jcross currents are at work for
the moment.
i Perhaps the biggest question
today is whether the Peronist
labor unions will attempt, and
(the insurgent forces be able to
prevent, a general strike. Cha
otic conditions could result,
tbut in the first hours after ver
ification of Peron’S abdication
there were no indications of a
^workers’ mobilization.
One of the great imponder
ables in Argentina now is the
future of the Christian Demo
cratic groups scattered inco
(hesively through the country,
jlf they form a regular political
party they could be very pow
erful.
There’s not too much confid
enoe among North American ob
servers in the radical .party
(which represented Peron’s chief
political opposition. Its leader
hias apposed Peron’s invitation
<to American investors as “vas
salage” for Argentina. But that
poiaiy have been due as much to
opposition to Peron as to the
(United States.
Nevertheless, Washington
.seemed to be nervous lest na
tionalism, isolationism and tra
ditional distrust of the Unittd
(States should combine under
(the new Buenos Aires regime
maike new trouble for Ar
gentine-North American rela
tions. '
After all the trouble with
Peron in past years, especially
during World War II when he
took a distinctly fascist color
ation, the United States and
.Argentina have been getting
along pretty well recently.
Pferon had swung away from
pertain manifestations of na-'
tionalism, especially with re-,
<gard to foreign investment. He
had quit using the United States
as an outside whipping boy to
.distract attention from his ec
onomic and especially his agri
pultudal problems at home,
t Perons shadow had fallen
over Latin-Amerioan politics
(for years. Time after time it
appeared he would slip into
.Oblivion, but each time he or
his wife, Eva. pulled some sort
,of rabbit ouit of the hat. Most
,of the time the hemisphere con
sidered him a menace. Yet now
that he sems to be gone for
(good, Washington won't be
sure it’s glad until it sees what
happens to the succession.

| Mercies, declared “it is the du
! fcy of the governor to request
j advice of his official legal re
presentative prior to taking
action on any matter Where
there exists serious doubt.”
Tiie statement further declar
ed:
“It is not incumbent upon
the attorney general’s office
to volunteer legal advice to
the chief executive: instead,
it is the governor’s duty to
initially seek 9uch advice.
Heintzleman also was criti
cized for a comment in hds
statement Monday that if
there had been any irregular
ity about the status of mem
bers of the police commission
atity. gen. J. Gerald Williams
“should have called iit to my
attention.” Williams, the gov
1 ernor said, is a member of the
commission.
Mercies said Wi t warns never
participated dn any formal
meetinlgs of the police commis
sion since the reject ions by
the legislature. Williams is in
the states attending a conven
tion of attorney generals and
I was not available for com
ment.
Meanwhile, the status of
the insurance commission re
mained uncertain.
The present membership
was named subsequent to the
appointment of five other
members, who had never met
but who are considered by the
attorney general’s office as
the official commission. The
latter body was neither con
firmed nor rejected by the leg
islature.
Members of the active
“first” group are Ken Murray
of Fairbanks, chairman; Cur
tis Sbattuck of Juneau, secre
tary, and John O’Shea and
Ben Crawford of Anchorage,
and Pros Ganty of ' Pelican.
The inactive “second” group
is cocnoosed of Arthur Havre,

Clitihero and Mr. and Mrs.

The six will drive to Miiami
Florida, to attend the national

Legion and Auxiliary.
Mr. Van Horn is a patrol
man on the local police force, j
and E. B. Collins of Fairbanks

from the attorney general’s;
office to finance director Mc
Kinney asking that a letter be
written to each of the five re-1
questing a refund of their trav
el and per diem payments.
Sports Trail
sen incident, however. The
Dodgers wanted him back, but
only would guarantee one years
work. Charley, with a side-long
and envious glance at Leo Dur
ocher’s new two year contract
with the then uninspired Giants
demanded like treatment, so it
was good-bye, Charley.
It is extremely doubtful that
Alston would make a similar
demand. He’s so gratetful at be
ing hauled uip from the minors
to manage the Brooklyns he d
probably agree to work'on a
day-to-day basis, with time and
a half for overtime, such as
might be necessary in a world
series.
That Alston has done a fine
job generally is agreed, altho
ugh there were times early in
the season it seemed your Aunt
Bessie could run the team if
she hbd 'a good, stout forefin
ger to push the buttons. The hit
ters were hitting and the field
ers were .fielding and the pitch
ers were pitching, and that was
enough.
But he had -some difficult
times, just the same. He had
to do an expert jugglinlg act
with his pitching staff, and he
also had to take some of his
athletes off into a corner and
patiently explain to them who
was boss.
Last year, as a newcomer to
the majors groping his way
alonlg, and succeeding a success
ful manager, he was a chilly
subject for an interview. Cold
and austere and uncommunica
tjive, he seemed unsure of him
self, and maybe he was.
Considering that Roy Oam
panellla and Don Newcombe
were oif comparative little ufee,
the former because of a hand
injury and the latter because
he dragged more weight than he
Carried after his army hitch,
the Dolfgiers did well to win 92
games and finish in second
place.
rhlis past spring Alston seem
ed more self-assured, but he
still wasn't the easiest mian in
the world to approach. He was
quietly reserved, a different
type entirely than the warm,
effervescent Dressen.
Ruit ihe knew where he was
going this year. With a sound
Oamipanella and a Newcomibe
pitching as a man of his talents
should pitch, his team won in
a breeze, despite the slowing
of Jackie Robinson.
Everything considered, it
was the comeback of Campan
511a and Newcomibe which made
ihe difference, but that does
lot mean Alston didn’t do a
jupehb job. After tall, an expert
cabinet maker couldn’t make
m orange crate without the
;ools. j
AL RICHTER NEW
MANAGER OF MARKET j

to the position of manager of

own in the states.
Mr. Richter has been asso
ciated with the meat market
for a number of years.
