Thoroughly annoyed, Argentina's President Arturo Frondizi personally penned a sharp note to Israel, protesting "the illicit act committed in violation of one of the most fundamental rights of the Argentine state." He demanded Eichmann's return within the week and yanked his ambassador to Israel back home for ''consultation." Once Israel returned Eichmann, Argentina would consider a formal request for his extradition-but only from West Germany or some international tribunal...
...chance of a warm official welcome elsewhere is slight. All the major Latin American Presidents-Argentina's Frondizi, Mexico's López Mateos, Brazil's Kubitschek, Venezuela's Betancourt, Chile's Alessandri, Colombia's Lleras Camargo-are authentic, elected democrats, friendly to the U.S. and fearful of letting Khrushchev get a foothold in the Western Hemisphere.

Coming on the eve of a mid-term congressional election that no one can really win, the trouble pointed up the odd state of a democratic...
...economic facts say that Frondizi is doing fine. His austerity program to cure the ills of the old Perón economy has kept down domestic consumption, boosted exports and brought foreign trade into balance. Yet Argentine psychology tells the public that things are not better, particularly in the area of cheap steak, which along with many other luxuries was subsidized under the Perón labor government at the expense of the future. The demagogic Peronistas are enraged at the fact that wages are down while steak has doubled to 50? per lb., campaign with the slogan, "Under...
