Interior Minister Juan Palmero issued a resolution which demands that the Justice Ministry take punitive measures against the members and supporters of the Tacuara nationalist movement, its Nationalist Students Union branch, the Nationalist Restoration Guard, and the Communist Youth Federation (PJC).

According to a special report issued by the federal police upon the request of the ministry, the resolution is based upon the charge that the organizations are acting as "veritable lawless associations" in "carrying out violent actions." It is also planned to instruct the federal police to give the utmost cooperation to the Justice Department in order to investigate the facts and, when necessary, to arrest the perpetrators.

MEATPACKING INDUSTRY CRISIS--Buenos Aires--Two of the largest meatpacking plants in Argentina, Swift and Armour, have reduced their operations, claiming that the Argentine currency they receive for their imports does not cover the costs of meat prices in the domestic market. Numerous workers have been fired as a result of this reduction in operations, thus compounding the meatpacking crisis.
