NEW ARGENTINE GOVERNMENT
RECOGNITION BY U.S. AND BRITAIN (Rec. 7 p.m.) NEW YORK, June .12. Following the announcement that the British and United States Governments had recognised the Ramirez Government in Argentina, the Berlin radio stated that the Argentine Charge d’Affaires in Berlin had informed the Reich Government that Argentina would remain neutral. The United States Secretary of State (Mr Cordell Hull) said that the United States had collaborated with other American Governments in connexion with the recognition of the new Argentine Government, but each Government acted on its own initiative. Asked whether he expected any change in Argentina’s neutrality. Mr Hull replied that nothing of that nature had been discussed, either directly or indirectly. Mr Hull pointed out that recognition was an ordinary step and a routine matter. The British Ambassador to the Argentine (Sir David Kelly) has been instructed to inform the Argentine Government of British recognition of the new Ramirez Government. The United States has also recognised the new Government. The Buenos Aires correspondent of the “New York Times’’ says he finds in ci earing evidence that political parties which at first viewed the revolution with suspicion and hostility now regard the Government with greater sympathy. Even the Socialist newspaper “Vanguardia” expresses approval of the Government’s first actions and the new trend of foreign policy. The Argentine Gbvernment has dismissed six judges and two State prosecutors “lacking in probity.” Also it has arrested a man on suspicion of espionage for a foreign Power. The authorities do not disclose the npme of the Power. However, they attach considerable importance to the arrest.
