NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Peron, Argentina's ex-dictator, has a 16 year old mistress who is very fond of him.

Other lands, other customs. An American President could not have a mistress at all and stay in office. And any man who has a mistress so young is likely to be imprisoned for a statutory infraction.

Aside from the moral problem involved, the fact indicates a flaw in the personality of Peron. A man who would choose a bobby-soxer must have an immature personality. No serious adult would prefer an adolescent to a mature woman.

Peron's immature character was revealed in the events leading to the revolution. Hell-bent as he was, the love of a wise, well-educated, warm-hearted grown-up would have been a burden." --Editorial in the Wichita (Kansas) Beacon
