President Gabriel González Videla is an energetic man who likes to go places and do things, usually decides to go and do them on the spur of the moment. In a little more than a year in office, he has flown to Rio and Buenos Aires, swum ashore from a capsized rowboat on a south Chilean lake, and crash-dived aboard a U.S. submarine off Valparaiso. In his fancy presidential DC-3, he has visited so many local fairs that Chileans are sure his travels already exceed those of all his predecessors put together. Their nickname for their...

...years ago, Chile's Communists cracked the "popular front" and walked out of Ibáñez' C.T.Ch. to found a federation of their own. Ibáñez fought back, breaking with Lombardo and C.T.A.L., but he would probably have been licked if Chilean President Gabriel González Videla had not jettisoned the Communists and become his friend. Last week's conference was the payoff. C.I.T.'s new president knows better than to tie up with the Communists again. Says he: "The Commies are going to use every dirty trick...

...turbulent year in office, President Gabriel González Videla has gambled a lot, and always won. Last week, his victories over the Communists behind him, he was ready to gamble again.

...record. The emaciated British dailies have no room for the cuff-shooting political pundits who clutter up the U.S. press. Instead, they often make their points through cartoonists who are real caricaturists: alongside the artful sharpshooting of David Low, Strube, Vicky, Illingworth and even the Daily Worker's "Gabriel," much U.S. political cartooning seems as subtle as a paleolithic sledge hammer. London's newspapers and weekly journals alike print comment and criticism more literate and provocative than in most of the U.S. press. And the Sundays, led by the urbane, open-minded Observer and Lord Kernsley...

...fiery President Gabriel González Videla was concerned, the Communists had asked for it. They had struck Chile's coal mines; he had expelled a Yugoslav diplomat on charges of pulling the strings (TIME, Oct. 20). And last week, when his troops were restoring order in the Lota coal fields, 2,000 Communist-dominated last-ditchers barricaded themselves in a mine tunnel and set off dynamite charges in front of advancing Chilean soldiers...
