NOTES
3.5(c)
Kidnappings Continue in Argentina
The Montoneros have claimed responsibility for the kid-
napping of Franz Metz, the West German production manager of
the Mercedes-Benz truck factory in Buenos Aires, where 4,000
workers have been on strike for the past three weeks. A com-
munique from the Montoneros stated that Metz will be held
hostage until Mercedes-Benz rehires 119 workers who were dis-
missed and recognizes the leaders of the strike as the workers'
representatives. Metz has not been seen since he left work on
Friday, 24 October.
Elsewhere in Argentina, Noel Salomon, a visiting litera-
ture professor from France, managed to flee when a group of
armed men burst into his home in Mendoza, Argentina on 22 Octo-
ber. Salomon, who was unharmed, teaches at the University of
Cuyo in Mendoza on a cultural exchange program. The identity
)
of the terrorists is unknown. 3.5(c
