de Transportes Aeros-waS organized
in 1919 after failure Of q French
attempt to establish commercial air
service in Colombia. The capital
was raised in Austria and Colombia
and Scadta became an immediate
success because Of exceedingly bad
means Of ground travel due to the
almost insurpassable Colombian
mountain ranges, erratic river con-
ditions. and the wet and dry seasons.
Cuts Time to Three Hours.
".eIt used to take from 7 to 10 days
to travel from Barranquilla, the
country's principal seaport, to the
capital, Bogota, an airline distance
Of but $50 miles. Arriving in Bar
ranquilla on the first fight of the
Pan-American Always "stratoliner"
service across the Caribbean from
Miami, the inaugural four-engined
plane was met by q United States
Boeing PAID bearing the brand-new
insignia of Avianca, which would
carry mail and passengers just
landed from the United States on to
Bogota in less than three hours.
BY 1927 Scadta was operating 4
complete network of air routes IN
Colombia and had extended service
to Ecuador and east to the Dutch
West Indies. At that time, Pam
American Airways was just getting
started. Scadta had completed
flight surveys across the Panama
Canal Zone and through Central
America to the United States and
made application, in competition
with the United States line. for op-
Grating rights over this route. The
Central American countries, how
ever, decided in favor of the United
States and cleared the way for
United States operations to Panama.
There, however, the United States
airline came against q stonewall of
German opposition. Scadta mad
applied for operating rights into
the Panama Canal Zone, despite
the concern of the United States
Army and Navy. Claiming to be q
legal Colombian company, Scadta
pressed its claim, backed by the
weight of its monopoly of the air
rights in Colombia. The Germans
launched an advertising campaign
in the principal Colombian news
papers attacking Pan-American
Always and its application for op-
Grating rights as a threat to Co.
lombian independence.
The Kellogg -Olaya treaty, signed
following negotiations involving Co.
lombia, the United States. Scadta
and Pan-American Always, pro-
vided reciprocal operating rights
into Colombia and the Canal Zone
for both Colombian and United
States airNnes. Under terms Of Z
private agreement, however, Scadta
after making two flights between
Cartagena and Cristobal, discon-
tinued service into the Canal Zone
and permitted Pan-American to buy
what at one time became q controll-
ing interest in the German COM
pany.
With coming of the European wal
and the rise of NaM aggression
however, Colombia became con-
cerned over the German character
Of Scadta's operating organization
which included some 200 Germans
of total Of 800 employees. The
recently passed Colombian nation
alization law turned over al domes-
tic airlines to q national company
All German pilots and technical
personnel were retired and q corps
Of instructors made available by
PAn-American Airways took over
operation of the line.

Tan Makeup
For Resort
Beauties
Too Much Sun Will
COarSen Texture
OF Finest Skin
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Those who specialize in the study
of the skin urge Southland beauties
to take only enough sun for health.
They caution women not to tan their
skins to bronze shade, for so much
sun toughens the texture and makes
it difficult for sun and air to enter
the body. 1t also prevents the skin
pores from functioning as freely as
they should in discharging the waste
of the body.
So chemists have come to the
rescue of woman's vanity. for who
doesn't like to look beautifully and
evenly tanned? They have mixed
beneficial skin lotions which are
colored harmlessly in rich sun
shades. When these lotions are ap-
piled the skin takes on a tawny
glow such as hours in the sun would
produce.
One leading salon offers those
Of us who like change of skin
tone complete resort makeup
You begin with a rich glowing
makeup film, which you dim suf-
flciently with powder of the same
shade. The lipstick (Which is bound
to be a seasonal hit) has a brown
copper beech undertone which is set
aflame the instant it touches your
skin. It gives your lips the flash
ing color of an exotic tropical flower
and blends beautifully with your
makeup film and powder. Nat
urally, if you play in the sun, rouge
is not necessary.
AS nails still match lips in color
there is new tropical lacquer too.
Your f1ngertips and toes will match
your lips identically!
This new makeup is an exciting
accent for white, yellow and the
striking new blues which are being
featured for Southern wear.
Hot lands demand lighter fra
grances than we wear in the North
and usually they are brewed from
heavily scented summer flowers.
This season fashion has chosen
to follow the romantic tradition in
Dixieland and new bath luxuries
have made their debut sweetly
scented with honeysuckle. Com
pletely charming, completely fem
mime, and a persuasive challenge to
moon -drenched romance are they!
Knowing that sun will parch skin
another firm presents their special
dry skin mixture in new jars for
less money. This Is splendid
lubricator to be applied at night
after the days outing, and is the
identical product which is used in
the famous dry skin treatments
given in their salon. Active out
door beauties should prevent parch-
ing by using a protective makeup
film during the day and by applying
rich lubricating cream at night.
My leaflet for care Of oily skin
is available upon request If you
write me care of this paper and
inclose a self addressed, stamped
(3-cent) envelope.
