La Prensa Situation
Puts Snag in Peron's
Relations With U. S.
Forced shutdown of the big
liberal Buenos Aires newspaper,
La Prensa. has put a crimp in
United States efforts to co-oper
ate with the Argentine govern
ment.
This was made clear yesterday
by Edward G. Miller, jr., Assist
ant Secretary of State for Inter
American Affairs, after his return
from a visit to Argentina and
other Latin American countries
A news vendors’ strike has kept
La Prensa closed for weeks. The
i strike is generally conceded to be
motivated by the government of
: President Peron in an effort to
! silence critcism prior to elections
coming up next year.
Mr. Miller expressed his deep
concern over the situation in a
statement read to a news confer
ence “as a friend of Argentina.”
He recalled American ideas
about freedom of expression and
said every believer in a free press
"must feel deeply concerned over
the situation of La Prensa and
its employes.”
Mr. Miller made it clear that
public reaction in this country
to the Argentine government’s at
titude toward the La Prensa
strike has forced the State De
partment to slow down co-opera
tive policies which until recently
had been producing constructive
results in improving relations
with the Peron regime.
Wender Tells of Turnover
In Recreation Personnel
Recreation Board Chairman
Harry S. Wender told members
of the Mount Pleasant Citizens’
Association last night that recre
ation personnel turnover has in
creased “fantastically.” owing to
military manpower demands and
other causes.
He used to prepare personnel
lists of prospective employes once
a month, the board chairman said,
but now has to draw them up as
often as twice a week.
Mr. Wender told the group the
turnover of trained recreation
workers is not the department’s
only problem. He described plans
to build a playground shelter and
two field houses and said these
have been modified to meet Na
tional Production Authority orders
on building materials so that
“practically nothing but bare es
sentials is left.”
The association indorsed a
policemen's, firemen’s and teach
ers’ pay raise resolution of the
Federation of Citizens’ Associa
tions and backed its request to
have Metropolitan Police with
drawn from Federal duties, in
cluding guarding of Blair House.
Association members were told
the Civil Defense Committee has
been “unable to find a head war
den for the area.”
W. Elwood Baker, president,
conducted the meeting in the
Mount Pleasant Branch Library,
Sixteenth and Lamont streets N.W.

day stood acquitted of one assault
charge stemming from a riot on
January 13 near Fourth and H
streets N.E., but he still has three

the arrival of more than 50 police.

cusation before the jury and Judge

What can you do to protect your money?
Dollars that are simply set aside won't buy as
much. That’s sure.
Dollars invested in selected common stocks are
much more likely to keep their purchasing power.
Why?
Because when prices of food and clothing and j
everything else you use go up, the prices of com- j
mon stocks usually rise too.
A perfect 'inflation hedge”?
Of course not. There’s no such thing.
But we don t know a better one, particularly
for the man who can ignore short-term swings and
keep his eye fixed on the long-term trend.
If you d like to know more about how you can
protect your money against rising prices ... or if
you would like your present security holdings
reviewed in the light of today’s conditions ... just
come in, phone, or write—

Its Great N ame is
Standard equipment, accessories and trim illustrated are subject to change without notict.
If there were some way to strip a Cadillac of every identi
fying emblem it possesses, and judge it solely by the way
it rides and handles and performs—it would still be quickly
recognizable as the “Standard of the World.”
But think what a Cadillac brings you in addition to the
solid value of its engineering and performance and comfort
“and handling ease—the wonderful Cadillac name!
Perhaps in all the world, there is no inanimate object
which speaks so eloquently as the Cadillac shield. It talks
of background, of progress, and of faultless workmanship.
It proclaims a promise of years and years of the utmost
motoring satisfaction. It speaks of its owner, and identifies
him as a man of accomplishment and discrimination.
In fact, there is nothing good and wonderful a motor
car can bring that isn’t promised or implied by the beautiful
Cadillac shield. And it speaks a universal language, which
is understood and appreciated the wide world over.
And remember, you pay no extra penalty for the pride
and pleasure of having this great and distinguished name.
They come as a “special dividend” with every Cadillac car.
We deeply regret that we are unable to deliver new Cadillac cars without some delay. But
the demand for the car is unprecedented—and much of the company’s energies and materials
are now being devoted to the needs of national security. Once the car is delivered into
your hands, however, we know you'll agree that—patience never brought a richer reward.
