In 1923. he recalled, the central
American countries, at the jin

among .other things, that none'of
them wouia recognize a goyern-

which ChamorrV'supporters were
placed in cabinet portfolios; am

participated in the uprising, and
Chamorro was paid $10,000 for
the expense of the coup.
3 Chamorro compelled Solor
zano to expel IS members of the
Nicaraguan congress and to sup
plant them with the 18 Chamorro
supporters who had been defeated
i in the election oi ivzi.
5 Solorzano resigned and Cha-
morro caused himself to be made
president "designate," and imme
diately after took office as presi
dent.
The.United States and the four
Central American countries re
fused to recognize him.
Chamorro s reign, howjver, was
short lived and in a few months
he, too, had a revolution on Lis
hands. The United States lande
marines to protect life and prop
erty and attempted to compose the
differences between the factions
Chamorro offered to resign, but
the representatives of the Sacasa
faction broke off the negotiations.
"According to our reports,"' the
president told congress, "the Sa
casa delegates on this occasion
stated freely that to accept any
government other than one pre
sided over by Dr. Sacasa himself
would be a breach-of faith with
their Mexican allies." -

over the presidential power to a

" N ASIUNGTO.V. ( AP ) The

than it useJ to, but ; people are

, This 4s the answer of Director
Tondarf. of the Georgetown Uni
r rrity olwervatory to the - flood
of inquiries reaching j him as to
whether 'earthquake are increas
ing in number and frequency. ".
Because 'of the precision of in
struments which: record tremors,
the public is informed constantly
through their newspapers of dis
turbances of the? earth's crust in
all parts of the globe. The . lay
belief that the shocks; are becom
ing close together is a result of
this publicity. -.' I
"The layman, unofficially inter
ested in the restlessness of the
earth's crust, should3 know the
truth," says Dr. Tondorf.- "The
problem of computing earthquake
frequency was first scientifically
undertaken by Count de. Montes
sus de Ballore, one-time director
of the seism oloslcal observatory

1900. ater a close: analysis of the
then available earthquake rec
ords, 131,292 in number, he plac
ed the annual average earthquake
occurrence at 3,830. equivalent to
an earth shock every ; two hours
tnd twenty-seven minutes. .
Four years afterward. Dr. Au
gust Sieberg. of the University of
Jena, questioned, the' estimate as
too low. "A recalculation made by
him in 1923 lifted the. annual av
erage frequency to 9.00. or about
one very hour. Five.'th6usand of
these quakes he Indicated as being
