Correction

In EIR Vol. 22, No. 49, p. 27, under the subheading “Bunge and Born,” it was the widow Isabel Martínez de Perón, not Evita Perón, who succeeded Juan Perón as President of Argentina upon his death in 1974, and who was overthrown by a coup in 1976. (Evita Perón, his former wife, had died in 1953.)
