DescriptionAfter dictating despatch No. 2462 on May 7, received Marshall's telegram; knows Marshall very busy so soon after his return from Moscow, but glad he was able to take up matter of the Argentine; understands Marshall's concern that after Truman's conciliatory approach to Perón through Argentine Ambassador, the Argentine Government has not quickly cleaned up matter by deporting the 20 to 30 dangerous agents mentioned by Truman; Ambassador [Oscar] Ivanissevich leaving May 9 for Washington and will immediately seek interview with Marshall and Truman to convey message from Perón; 10 or 11 of remaining aliens are under detention and deportation delayed only because Government hopes to locate others; Argentine Government as anxious to apprehend and deport these aliens as U.S.; those still at large, with exception of [Johannes Siegfried] Becker, not really dangerous; if they ever became active they would call attention to themselves and be caught at once; feels that the Argentine has done as much as any of the American republics in complying with its inter-American commitments; heads of mission of other American republics in Argentina know this and cannot understand U.S. reluctance to recognize it; admits inadequacies and corruption in Perón Government; Perón primarily a military man and inexperienced in government; mistakes have been made, but also some progress; problems have been attacked which have heretofore been neglected; time has come when U.S.-Argentine relations must be normalized in the interests of both countries and the whole hemisphere.en_US
