Peronist labor leaders arepressing President Peron
to curb the influence of her confidant, Jose Lopez Rega.
They plan to meet with her soon and will probably push
for his resignation and possibly that of Economic Minis-
ter Gomez Morales.
Most Argentine politicians appamntly believe that
there is sufficient opposition o Lopez Rega to force
the issue with Mrs. Peron. During the past week, labor
support for her government has significantly eroded.
Although the government claims to have smashed a subver-
sive plot to paralyze key industries, several factories
are still occupied by workers protesting the arrest of
left-wing 4-rade union leaders.
This unrest has been accompanied by growing politi-
cal criticism. For thefirstiggle, minority parties
within the coalition,tliat.retUrred the Peronists to power
have attacked Mrs. Penn forAhe economic policies and
her failure to consulewith th on other key issues.
The concerted labor oppos ion to Lopez Rega
in-
creases pressure on Mrs'. Peron o get rid of her adviser.
If she gives in, it is, doubtfujlthat she can complete her
term without Lopez Rega's suppo t. On the other hand',
if she refuses to make meaningeil concessions, she will
face an increasing number of strikes, continuing terror-
ist violence, and further loss of public support.
