BuenosAires,May10.-ProvisionalPresident PedroE.AromburuhaspromisedthattheArgentine governmentwillguaranteefreedomintheestablishmentofdemocratictradeunionsandthatunion electionswillbeheldwithinthenextfivemonths.
Inanation-wideradioaddressfromthecityof ConceptiondelUruguay,Gen.Aromburudeclared:
"Thegovernmentmustnotinterfereinthe shapingupoflabour'scentralorganisation.

ThePresidentmadehispromisesfollowingpublicationofapastoralletterbytheCatholicBishops ofArgentinawhichaskedforfreetradeunionorganisation,andafterdemandsbytheArgentine YoungChristianWorkersthatunionelectionsbe heldinthenearfuture.

Inanobviousreferencetothepoliticalslantof theoldPeronistunions,PresidentAramburudeclaredthat"thelabourmovementinthefuture mustbecompletelyindependentofintereststhat arenotpurelythoseoftradeunions."
"Itisnotpermissiblethataminorityassociation, howeverimportantitmaybe,shouldbreakupthe socialequilibriumandtrytobecomeanoverlord overthewholeofsociety,"hesaid.
"Thestate cannottolerateanotherstate withinitself. Whenthesocialequilibriumis brokenup,thepeopleandthenotionruntherisk ofdisintegration. Insuchacase,thestateis obligedtoexerciseitspower."
PresidentAramburu'sannouncementthatgovernmentinvestigationofthePeronistlabourleaderswouldceasebytheendofthismonthwasin linewithadeclarationbyanArgentinebishopwho isaleaderinthefieldofsocialactionthat"differencescannotbeironedoutbymutualrecrimination."

Q.:Whatisthepositionof CatholicLabourmenIn regardtotheSocialisation Objective?
R.:Itisexactlythesame nowasitwasmanyyears ago,whenIrepliedtopracticallythesamequestion. Hereistheanswer,ascontainedinmyfirstvolumeof collected"RadioReplies," publishedin1934.
Theansweritselfwas givenin1932,just24years ago,anditrunsasfollows:
"Withoutsubscribingto the'SocialisationObjective' asatheory,aCatholiccould supporttheLabourPartyin itspresentpracticalprogramme,asbeingconsidered byhimtobelessoppressivethananopposingprogramme.
"ButwithintheLabour Partyhewouldbeobliged tousehisinfluencetosecurearestatementofthe Objectiveonlessdrastic lines."
Imightaddthatthat statementwassubmittedto andfullyapprovedbythe lateArchbishopSheehan, whowastheninSydney andintenselyinterestedin theproblemofharmonising AustralianLabourprincipleswiththeobligationsof thenaturalmorallawand theclearteachingsofthe PapalEncyclicals.
Unfortunately,Catholic Labourpoliticianshave shownnodispositionstodo anythingaboutthismatter, preferringtoletthingsgo owingtothepreponderating influenceofFabianand otherleft-wingsocialists.
