Roaring alarms of the undeclarsd
Chaoo war dominated the Latin
American atace a the curtain fell
on 1833. Only four of the 20 south
ern natlona escaped Internal or
ternatlonal conflicts In a Jar ,n
which earthquakes und hurricanes
added to the Immense toll of death
claimed by revolutions and the war
between Bolivia and Paraguay.
Aa the Chaco fighting entered Its
sixth month in Decemoer, wiwi Bo
livia's losses estimated at m.uuu
r,i .t,h diseased, and Para
guay's at 18.000, the status of their
armies was almost exactly the same
as at the beginning of the conflict.
A second war was threatening at
the end of the year, with Peru and
Colombia at odds over possession of
the Amazon river port of Letlda, and
in. vtiffhlnff trooos to the
scene to protect her territorial rights.
RKvnlntlnn In Honduras.
Revolution, dying out, still gripped
Honduras, and In Argentina reported
radloal aotlvlttes were followed by the
arrest of former Presidents DeAlvear
and Irlgoyen, under orders of Presl-
rfnt .Tujitn's covernment.
Meanwhile Chile and Ecuador re
turned to constitutional government
after a year of disorders, Brazil was
preparing to elect an administration
to succeed tne provision"" icg.wv,
and Psnama, Honduras, Nicaragua,
Argentina, Mexico and Paraguay fac
ed 1933 with presidents elected dur
ing the past year.
While the Chaco confllot was reach
ing Its Intensest stage In October,
Brazil was bringing to an end lis
devaststlng three months' revolution
which costs the country over 8,000,
000 and 15.000 lives, the forces of
provisional President Vargas emerg
ing victorious.
Many Shifts In Chile.
Peru, In the meantime, was faced
with lt share of Internal troubles.
On December 8, Colonel Sanchei Cerro
completed one year as president, dur
whloh he narrowly escaped death at
the hands of an assassin and stamp
ed out a naval uprising and two civ
ilian revolts.
After eleht changes of govern'
ments. Peru's southern neighbor,
Chile, returned to constitutional
government December 24, with the
inauguration of former President Ar-
turo Alessandrl, who was eieorea jc
to ber 30 for a four-year term. Be
tween April and November the coun
try was In an almost continual state
of disorder.
Ecuador Has Revolt.
Ecuador. Peru's northern neighbor,
returned to constitutional govern
ment on December B when Juan de
Dlos Martins Mora took office.
Earlier Naptalt Bonlfaz was elected
but the senate declared him Inelig
ible, ruling him a Peruvian by birth.
His followers seized the capital, Qui
to, and were ousted after bitter fight
ing In which 1,000 were killed.
Uruuay preserved absolute In
ternal order under President Gabriel
Terra.
Venezuela. Untroubled.
Of all the Bouth American repub
lies, only Venezuela, under the firm
dictatorship of General Juan Vicente
Gomez, remained free from iroume.
In five of the six Central Ameri
can republics, H eslvador, Quatc
mala. Costa Rica, Honduras and Klc
tragus, there were internal disorders
and the last three and ranama eieci
ed new presidents.
Withdrawal of the first contingent
of the United States marines from
Nloanurua and the pending with
drawal of the remainder following the
leotlon of Doctor Juan B. Bacasa as
president November 7, failed to halt
th campaign of the Insurgent lead
er. Augusto Bnndlno.
The end of the year brought hopes
of conciliation In Cuba between
opposition leadera and President Ma.
chado, who released a number of
political prisoners.
Mexican President Quits.
In Mexico President Ortiz Rublo
' fjslgned after a dispute over the op
eration of a government department,
being replaced by General Abelsrdo
ii Rodriguez, who was elected by the
senate.

(By Mary Grelner Kelly.)
Just a little grey miner unruly
hair, Irregular beard with VanDyklan
aspiration, and flannel ahlrt (open at
the collar) forming the descriptive
ensemble. Pardon me meet John
Lang, 71, oldest member of the house
of representatives.
One might overlook Mr. Lang tight
at first. He's quiet and unobtrusive.
His hazel eyes are dreamy, unadorn
ed by glasses; the eyes of a pros
pector penetrating distance.
It's his first experience In the leg
islature. He considers his election
a sumrlse birthday present. (that an
niversary falling on January 15) fronfl
the people of Baker county. They
send only one representative and one
senator from there.
"Well, sir, It waa funny," observed
the little miner during a morning
recess, "my election, I mean. Me, an
old sourdough and prospector, skin
ning one of the slickest politicians
in the county. Yep, I beat him by
157 votes out of 305 cast In our pre
clnct. What's that? Oh, yes, in the
county I beat him by better than
500. And I didn't turn my band to
get It either."
Mr. Lang admits that he's a "Billy
Bryan brand of Democrat," that he
"crossed the plains at the age of 14,
r.nd that he sourdoughed up the
Klondike, and that he's spent most
of his life searching for the miner's
pot of gold.
The opening session was obviously
bewildering to Representative Lang,
who couldn't see much sense in meet
ing for 10 minutes and adjourning
for a couple of hours all through
the day, And, pshaw, It sounded
silly the wsy that clerk, who was
evidently supposed to call the roll
on suspension of rules, shouted a
couple of names beginning with A.
a couple of Bs, maybe a W, and skip
ped all the rest except "Mr. Speaker."
He didn't dare leave that Mr. Speaker
out if he wanted to be popular around
there. Yep, there were a lot of little
things like that that Representative
Lang couldn't see much logic to.
Suddenly, the around morning, the
representative from Baker heard his
name announced as vice-chairman of
the mining committee. Well, that
was something. He began to figure
that maybe he could help out the less
experienced lads in the group. Some
of them looked kind of young, and
as though they'd never seen a mine
before a good mine, anyway. I
And there was a considerable area
beneath the pocket of a flannel ahlrt 1
that began pumping mighty hard, as
little grey man preceded some
"boys" Into the first committee meet-1
ing on mining.
Meet the Youngest.
Meet William L. Dickson, the
youngest member of the house. His
uncle and law partner, . Aahhy L.
Dickson of Portland, Is In the sen
ate, but William Isn't going to let
that stop him from making a record.
Unlike Representative Lang, Wil
liam obviously doesn't have dreams.
They're visions. Ho Isn't bowildored.
He may be confused. Or perhaps it's
Just his listeners who are. It's be
cause Ideas pop out and tumble over
each other fast too fast to guar
antee proper digestion.
Let's seo he's all for Judicial re
form and all sorts of other reforms
thrown in. He can scarcely wait to
see the sales tax get the "good drub
bing it deserves." He wants all un
necessary governmental expenses cut
slashed right away. Surely, he
voted to cut the pay of legislative
clerks and stenographers, but to re
tain during the special session. He
didn't give a hang what the sena
tors did. Economy should be?in at
home, and It was up to the house to
set a good example.
And as William hurries out of the
session to attend his first committee
meeting, one supects that the ma
chinery of government Is not going
to move quite fast enough to digest
all the fuel he has stored up for It.

Most of Medford's radio fans, as
much as they turn their dials and
follow the radio program, probably
are unacquainted with one of the
smallest but busiest stations In the
city, known as KOE. This station
broadcasts no program, presents no
entertainment features, does nothing
to attract the attention of radio lis
eners yet it Is at work day and
night and part of the radio network
whloh Mttenilji nmr th eountrv.
Station KOE Is located In United
Air Lines' hangar-depot at municipal
airport. Its Job Is to keep in touch
by two-way radio telephone, with the
passenger - mall - express trl -motored
planes flying on Its Seattle -Med ford-
San Diego route. i
A visit to this United Air Lines'
radio station wll convince even the
skeptic how dependable air transport
has become. For Instance, one can
hear the conversation of a pilot In
night a.ooo miles away.
This station makes approximately
120 contacts dally with planes In
flight, and KGS talks every 20 min
utes with planes while they are with
in its radius. This station Is one of
35 United Air Lines maintains over
the country, located at intervals of
aproxlmately 200 miles. At the ma
jority of these atatlons 24 shifts are
observed since United Air Lines files
approximately 6,000,000 miles a year
at night.
The range of the Medford station
Is around 250 miles, but under
Unlted's plan of operation planes are
never more distant than 130 miles
from a ground station.
