PERON TO RETURN
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter —Copyright > BUENOS AIRES, August 26
The former President of Argentina. Juan Peron, announced in a tape-recorded message played at Buenos Aires yesterday he had decided to return to Argentina.
Nine years after a military coup sent him into exile, the tape-recording was brought to Buenos Aires by a group of his supporters and produced at a news conference by leaders who attended a Peronista meeting in Madrid last week. Mr Peron said in the message he was returning to help “pacify and unify the Argentine people.” Since he was overthrown the country had lived in
chaos and division under Governments that were not truly representative of the will of the people, Peron said. Mr Alberto Iturbe, a Peronist leader, said the former President was not worried about arrest warrants that have been out for him since 1955. He said the decision to return was "irrevocable.”
