The armed forces of the Argentine include the army, the military air force and the navy, the first two of which are under the control of the Ministry of War, while the third is under that of the Ministry of Marine. The Argentine army consists of : (a) the regular army, (b) the national guard and (c) the territorial guard. The regular army consists of the standing army and its reserve. The technical organisation of the national guard and the territorial guard is similar to that of the regular army. Each provincial Government is responsible in its territory, and the Central Government is responsible in the capital and in the national territories, for the training and organisation of the national guard. The provinces merely collaborate with the National Government, since the national Constitution expressly provides that the Provincial Governments may not maintain or possess military forces of any kind. I. Army. ORGANS OF MILITARY COMMAND AND ADMINISTRATION. Under the terms of the Constitution, the President of the Republic is the supreme authority in matters concerning national defence. He exercises his authority over the army through the Minister of War. MINISTRY OF WAR. The Minister of War is the supreme head of the army.

The office of Inspector-General of the Army is filled by a general appointed by the executive authorities, who has the highest position in the army after the Minister of War. The duties of the Inspector-General of the Army in connection with preparation for war are exercised through the General Staff of the Army, which is directly under his orders. His duties in connection with training and inspection are exercised through the inspectors of arms. A Standing Committee of Arms was established in I93I consisting of the inspectors of arms, the Inspector-General being its president. The General Staff. The General Staff of the Army is the technical body appointed to organise the defence of the country. The General Directorate of Aviation.

Police, Prison Guards, Customs Officers, Forest Guards, etc. The police force strictly so called consists of civilians subordinate to the Ministry of the Interior in the federal capital and to the Provincial Governments in their respective territories. Only a part of these forces is armed with rifles and receives individual training in the handling of arms, range firing and drill in close formation-for the sole purpose of enabling them to carry out their individual duties and internal services in barracks. Moreover, the personnel of those services is not regarded as available for mobilisation purposes.
7 ARGENTINE 21 RECRUITING SYSTEM AND PERIOD OF SERVICE. i. General. Recruiting is carried out on the principle of compulsory military service. For reasons of economy, only part of the contingent is called up, lots being drawn among citizens aged 20; the remainder of the class, apart from the naval contingent, is directly incorporated in the reserve of the standing army. In I932, the proportion called up was 25.5 per cent of the total, of which 4 per cent were for the navy. 2. Military Obligations. The total duration of military obligation is twenty-five years (between the ages of 20 and 45). Men aged 20 serve'one year in the permanent units of the regular army. In cases of urgent necessity, the Executive may postpone for not more than three months the discharge of the contingents incorporated. Citizens incorporated who have acquired the requisite standard of marksmanship at the practice ranges remain only three months in the ranks. For budgetary reasons, the period of service in the ranks is reduced to ten months in the case of the greater part of the contingent incorporated. On the termination of their service in the units of the standing army, conscripts and volunteers are transferred to the reserve of the regular army, where they remain up to the age of 30. Reservists between 21 and 29 years of age are called up for two periods of training, not exceeding one month each. Reserve officers and N.C.O.s may be called up for two periods of cadre training not exceeding fifteen days each. National Guard and Territorial Guard. The National Guard consists of officers, non-commissioned officers and citizens from 30 to 40 years of age. The Territorial Guard consists of officers, non-commissioned officers and citizens from 40 to 45 years of age. 3. Exemptions from Military Service. The following are exempted from military service: (a) Men who are unfit for service and who cannot be employed in non-combatant services; (b) Men exempted on account of family situation; (c) Members of the State and provincial public services, during the whole duration of their tenure of office or employment;
8 22 ARGENTINE (d) Members of the regular and secular clergy, seminarists, and ministers of all religions. Every exemption must be renewed in January each year; men granted exemption must also pay a military tax. 4. Special Privileges. Students may apply to undergo a special period of training in order to qualify for commissions as candidate-reserve officers. This period lasts three months. 5. Volunteers. The number of volunteers accepted for inclusion in the units of the standing army is extremely small. On the other hand, cadets of the Military College, candidates for the schools for N.C.O.s and specialist N.C.O.s, apprentices of the Mechanics' School and of the Gymnastic and Fencing School, men of the gendarmerie regiment and clerks are recruited solely by voluntary enlistment. The age for the initial engagement of volunteers is I6-20 years in the schools and in the army. All volunteers are engaged for a period of from one to five years; the engagement may be renewed for successive periods of the same length until the volunteer has served twenty-five years or reached the age of 50. In the event of war, citizens who, according to the law, are no longer liable to military service may engage as volunteers for the duration of the war. 6.
