YEAR OF CHAOS
FAILS 10 DAUNT
Leaders Refuse to Guess
What New Year Holds for
Troubled Country Man
churia Sees More Trouble
By MORRIS .1. HARRIS.
SHANGHAI (AP) As 1933 arrives
China looks back upon a year of trag
edy and turmoil, but finds herself
with the gravest of her international
and domestic problems unsolved.
Leaders refuse to hazard a guess as
to what the new year will bring to
this sick giant of Asia, but all pro
fess confidence that in the end
meaning few years or many the big
world problems now centering In east
ern Asia will be settled and, for the
great part, according to dictatea of
China.
Manchuria Faces Chaos.
Japan's military occupation of
Manchuria and Institution of the pro
tected state of Manchukuo consti
tuted the greatest foreign threat to
China, since the dio&Btrous Blno-Japa-nese
war in the closing years of the
previous century.
As 1532 passes. Mane hurl an volun
teers continue to harass the Island
empire's officials. The coming year
promises to be one of chaos there
even while the League of Nations tries
to settle the problem.
In memory, too, exists the assault
which Japan launched upon Shang
hai late last January. For six weeks
an army of more than 50,000, backed
by a naval armada, was held at bay
bythe Chinese nineteenth route army.
Eventually there was a truce.
Huge Losses Counted.
What was gained remains a matter
of opinion. Japan says she broke the
Chinese boycott. China declarea she
showed the world that her soldiers
on defense were equal to those of any
other nation.
The principal results were huge
losses of lives and property.
But Shanghai has traveled a long
way along the comeback road and to
day, uuder increased tariffs, is the
source of a river of revenue for the
Nanking regime.
Home Politics Mixed.
Domestically the unity of China
continues more of a theory than a
fact. The powerful clique In control
of Canton maintains only a nominal
allegiance to Nanking. The centraJj
provinces are aflame with com
munism; the north has too many
troubles of Its own to permit it to
give active aid to Nanking.
Colds
doubly dangerous
with Flu around
OEALTH authorities wain that every prer
caution should be taken to check colds
promptly. Colds pull down body resistance,
and often pave the way for an attack of flu
and its serious complications. Don't take
chances. For greatest safety and protec
tion, follow Vicks Plan for better Control of
Colds. With certain simple rules of health,
the Plan, briefly, is this:
TO PREVENT MANY COLDS: At that first
feeling of stuffiness or nasal irrita
tion, sniffle or sneeze Nature's usual
warning that a cold is coming on
use Vicks Nose & Throat Drops, the
new aid in preventing colds. ThiB will
check many colds at the nose and
throat where most colds start.
TO END A COLD SOONER: If a cold has
developed, or strikes without warn
ing, vigorous measures are necessary.
Eest as much as possible, preferably in
bed. Take a mild laxative, i needed,
At bedtime, apply Vicks VapoRub,
the modern external treatment, for
its direct, double action while you
sleep. During tho day, use the con
venient Vicks Nose Drops for added
comfort and relief while you work.
Vicks Plan Tested and Proved
In numerous clinical tests, last winter, Vicks Colds-Control
plan reduced the number and duration of colds by half . . .
cut the cost of colds more than half. How you can follow the
Han in your home is fully explained in each Vicks package.
GOOD MEWS
for California travelers
Since we Introduced these Tourist fares in 1928, we have
consistently pursued the policy of fitting them to the require

only. Then they were honored in tourist sleeping cars.
Drastic reductions were made in the roundtrips. And now,
with further reductions in the fares, longer limits, stopover
privileges and the inclusion of many more California desti
nations, we know you will agree that these fares are today's
outstanding travel value.
