| dc.description | Enclosure: See No. 1816. Comments on article in Nov. 11 New York Times sent in by [Frank L.] Kluckhohn, Buenos Aires correspondent; article reports suit filed against two leading Argentina newspapers for using duty free newsprint for private profit; article implies Argentine Government behind suit and sees it as a threat to freedom of press; the two papers, La Prensa and La Nación opposed Perón in campaign for Presidency and have been critical of his government since his election, but doubts government instigated suit; press has enjoyed complete freedom since Perón was inaugurated; Kluckhohn declared to Messersmith his source of information was reliable, but later admitted to one of Embassy secretaries his source was not trustworthy; Kluckhohn seems confused; not the first time he has sent out despatches containing inaccuracies; Perón issued statement denying that his Government had any knowledge of the suit and certainly was not behind it; he assured press his Government would do nothing to threaten their freedom. | en_US |
