Chile: A Courtesy Visit
Symbols are significant. A key question in Chile and elsewhere is "Who is
top dog, the president or the Army?" President Eduardo Frei paid a visit
to the head of the armed forces. He was received with the usual military
honors. Little was said about their conversation, but Frei's gesture was
taken to mean that he did not want to antagonise the armed forces.
