The correspondent's call was cut off at Buenos Aires after several minutes but what he had said was recorded and broadcast on an NBC Radio programme.

The Army, which saved the day for President Juan Peron on Thursday afternoon, is in complete power and is carrying out the state of seige most strictly," he said.

"The Army is in command and the Army Minister (General Lucero) is emerging minute by minute as the real wielder ef power. Perca will never agai wield the extreme. dictatorial power which he had when the first rebel bombs fell on Govern- ment House....
