Aramburu.
The new revolt, by 300 to 400
men from an antiaircraft group
in San Luis province, was an
neunced shortly after midnight
with a radio declaration that the
rebels hr,d seized the province.
Six hours later, the revolution
collapsed when no help arrived
from other military units.
Before dawn, an Interior Min
istry spokesman said loyal
troops had captured Gen. Mau-
rico Gomez, commander of the
2nd Argentine army, who re
portedly had joined the rebels.
Another rebel, Gen. Fortunato
Giovannoni, whom the rebels
named provisional president of
the nation, reportedly fled to
Chile by plane. In Santiago, the
Chilean government said it had
no information about him.
Giovannoni was jailed by Peron
for plotting against him. After the
dictator's overthrow, he was
named director of the national
prison system but later resigned
and had • been out of the public
eye for some time.
Just before noon, Frondizi
turned over control of the gov
ernment to Senate President Jose
Maria Guido and left for 'Europe,
confident the nation was calm.
Guido will act as president dur- -
ing Frondizi's eight-nation trip.
Argentina has no vice president
at the moment.
Shortly after learning of the
uprising, Gen. Rodolfo Larcher,
the secretary of war, warned the
insurgents to surrender before
dawn or face an attack by govern
ment troops.
The revolt was sparked by army
opponents of Peron, who felt
Frondizi was too soft on Peron
ists and Reds.

West Stands
Firm On
New Talks
GENEVA ((P) France told
the Soviet Union yesterday
.that "Western solidarity will
remain firm in all instances"
during the East-West disar
manient talks. French dele
gate Jules Moch said he made
the statement 1,0 dispel any Soviet
hope that France might be Used
as a wedge to disrupt Western
unity during negotiations here.
But Moch, in effect made the
first public admission of differ
ences among the Western powers
in their reaction to the new Soviet
disarmament plan.
"Even if some Western govern
ments felt at certain times closer
to certain Soviet concepts or less
distant from them than did others,
they would no doubt try, among
themselves, to get their allies to
share their views." Moch told the
10-nation conference.
"But in any case they would
never adopt a separate poistion
from that of their allies. It is, in
fact, among 10 of us, and all 10—
and not 6, 7 or 9 against 4, 3 or 1—
that as many points of agreements
as possible must be found. In all
instances, Western solidarity will
remain firm!'
In his first deep probing of the
new Soviet proposal, Moch noted
that certain French ideas had
been borrowed.
"We are gratified by this," he
aid. "But we are not so sure that
the presentation or the methods of
application or the general philos
ophy of these proposals confirm to
ours."
Mich was referring to the first
stage of the new Soviet plan,
which coupled elimination of
means of delivery of nuclear wea
pons—a French idea—with aboli
tion of all bases on foreign terri
tory and withdrawal of foreign
troops—a strictly Soviet' idea.
The Western powers contend
that combining the two ideas in
the first phase of disarmament
would lay Western Europe open
to superior Soviet ground forces
with no effective deterrent.

the State Department yesterday

worth of office furniture from the

administration as a wasteful
spender. himself. '-
The son, Frederick E. Mueller,
president of the Mueller Metals
Corp. of Grand Rapids, Mich., re
torted that Proxmire was playing
partisan politics with half-facts
and innuendos.
'Since January 1958, Proxmire
said, the company has been giv
en nine contracts by the State
Department and "not one of the
contracts was awarded on the ba
sis of competitive bids." .
The senator said the agency
