ARGENTINA I. A storm centering on the role of controversial presiden- tial adviser Lopez Rega developed in late January while President Peron was resting at an Atlantic beach resort. A. Widespread opposition was voiced over the apparent free hand accorded Lopez Rega in conducting govern- ment business during the President's absence. B. The creation of a presidential secretariat earlier in the month had concentrated power in Lopez Rega's hands and given him control over access to the President. C. Adding to the unsettled state of affairs were re- ports of: -- the President's sudden move to a nearby naval base from her resort quarters, possibly for security reasons -- Lopez Rega's disappearance from public view for several days -- widely circulating stories alleging that Lopez Rega and the President had a falling out -- the visit of the military high command for talks ARGENTINA - 1 Approved for Release: 2018/09/17 C03306094 Approved for Release: 2018/09/17 C03306094 3.5(c) with Mrs. Peron at the naval base a new terrorist ultimatum threatening a campaign of "indiscriminate execution" of government officials. D. The President cut short her stay and returned to the capital, evidently to stem the mounting rumors of a government crisis. Meanwhile, the interior minis- ter took steps to upstage Lopez Rega in a calculated attempt to quiet the criticism of his superministerial role. E. Cosmetic efforts to disguise Lopez Regais influence will have little effect on those who distrust him: the military, Peronist labor, businessmen, and the opposition parties. F. Nevertheless, the military will be reluctant to press too hard for his ouster. They fear that this might force Mrs. Peron to step down -- something they prefer to avoid because of the political problems it would raise. G. If Mrs. Peron should'resign she would be succeeded constitutionally by Senate President Allende or Chamber of Deputies President Lastiri in that order; new elections would probably be convoked. The level of terrorism has lowered slightly, but secur- ity forces have a long way to go in ending it.

Argentine the People's Revolutionary Army -- the best organized terrorist group -- has been reduced in strength by one-third. Despite increased arrests under the state of siege now in effect, this estimate is probably exaggerated. C. The army has taken a more direct role in counter- insurgency operations by sending crack troops into Tucuman Province -- a principal guerrilla stronghold. D. We expect, however, that urban terrorism will remain a primary concern of Mrs. Peron's government, as extremists try to make good on their threat to kill government and Peronist officials, security personnel, and businessmen. out random acts of violence at will.

The latest freeing of political prisoners took place on February 13, when a group of 27 left Chile for exile in Venezuela. A. This group included five important personalities from the Allende era who had been imprisoned on remote Dawson island. B. Of the 39 notables originally imprisoned there only 17 remain in custody -- at a less austere detention facility. C. A semi-official committee is seeking countries willing to receive almost 1,000 persons convicted and serv- ing sentences. Timing and procedure for the release of sentenced prisoners has yet to be announced, how- ever. D. The granting of safe conduct out of the country to persons who have sought asylum in foreign embassies has become routine. D. There has been only very limited progress toward the restoration of due process safeguards, however. The Chilean equivalent of habeas corpus, for example CHILE - 1 Approved for Release: 2018/09/17 C03306094 Approved for Release:-2018/09/17 C03306094 remains suspended. The same is true, of course, of general political rights. 1. There is likely to be gradual progress in this area as the government appears to accord great importance to improving Chile's international image. wzeit 2. It appears to have decided toA an international fact-finding mission if the UN's Human Rights Commission requests it -- despite recent inti- mations that Chile will no longer permit such entry unless the commissions can demonstrate similar access to the Soviet Union and Cuba. II. The current prescription of economic recovery calls for movement from a state-dominated to a social market econ- omy, decentralization, curtailed government spending, encouragement of private domestic and foreign invest- ment, and reliance on market forces to allocate resources efficiently. A. The armed forces understand the need for a painful period of adjustment. They are concerned, however, over the timing, extent, and distribution, of austerity and sacrifice. 1. Army officers, the most attuned to popular attitudes, worry that discontent could turn into general opposition to the government. They also CHILE - 2 SreitEnT Approved for Release: 2018/09/17 C03306094 Approved for Release: 2018/09/17 C03306094 want to insure that all sectors of society share in the sacrifices. 3. The outcome of this controversy between the econ- omists and officers may depend in large part on how the mix of world food, fuel, and copper prices plays out, and on the level of new in- ternational assistance Chile can obtain.
