Reporter
For most of us, learning a second language is like
pulling teeth — it’s a long and sometimes painful proc
ess that we could easily do without. But for one Aggie
who was born and raised in Bolivia, learning languages
comes naturally and has been a big influence on his ca
reer in the United States military.
Col. John A. Tudela, Class of’64, initially came to the
United States from Bolivia on an exchange program
with the United States Military Academy at West Point,
New York. However, his plans were soon changed — he
came to A&M instead.
“The ambassador (of Bolivia) designated his son to
go to West Point instead of me, so I came to the better
school — Texas A&M,” Tudela says.
Tudela, who is especially proud of his A&M educa
tion, says being an Aggie has helped his military career
because of A&M’s connections throughout the world.
“Being an Aggie is an asset because you come with a
package of tradition that’s hard to Find anywhere else,”
ne says. “There’s always an Aggie wherever you go. Be
ing an Aggie has attained national prestige from all an
gles.
“A&M graduates don’t suffer from identification.
This is a leg-up on graduates from other schools. An
A&M graduate with a good record is going to get good
positions in business and in the government.”
Tudela graduated with a degree in industrial engi
neering technology and was commissioned into the
United States Army. Since then, he has traveled to 52
countries.
He currently commands the Galveston District of the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This brings him closer
to his alma mater than he’s been in years.
He speaks six languages fluently and has held special
assignments throughout the world, including assisting a
former secretary of state and serving as special assistant
to the Supreme Commander Europe in Belgium.
Not long after graduation from A&M, Tudela went
to Austria for an Army exchange program and then to
Spain, where he attended the Spanish Army War Col
lege. During these assignments, Tudela learned the lan
guages of the countries he was in, and later in his career
he attended language schools before traveling to some
foreign countries.
In addition to learning the languages, Tudela met
and worked with American and foreign politicians and
diplomats.
As a captain, Tudela had the unique opportunity of
meeting current Panamanian strongman Manuel No-
rfeiga while working for an engineering special forces
detachment for the U.S. Army in Panama in 1972.
Noriega, a captain at the time, was an intelligence of
ficer for the Panama National Guard, and Tudela met
him during a meeting to discuss different projects that
the engineering detachment was going to be involved
in.
Tudela commented on Noreiga’s loyalty to the gov
ernment even as a captain.
“At that time he was a loyal supporter of the former
Gen. Torrijos,” Tudela said. “He practically was a prod
igy of Torrijos. When Torrijos was overthrown, there
was a coup against him, and Capt. Noriega was the one
who re-took the government and handed it back to
Torrijos. That’s how his association (with the govern-
menit) developed.”
Tudela later served as a military assistant to then-Sec-
retary of State Henry Kissinger in 1975 and 1976. He
coordinated Kissinger’s visits with foreign governments
and accompanied him on visits to countries such as
Chile, Mexico and his native Bolivia.
“That was a fascinating experience,” he said. “Just

were fostered by the fact that he speaks so mam

DALLAS (AP) — Construction
that will increase the capacity of
Texas prisons by more than 65 per
cent in just four years is still only a
stopgap measure, state officials say.
By the end of 1989, the 12,500
beds approved last year by the Texas
Legislature and Texas voters are ex
pected to be in place. And in next
year’s legislative session, state offi
cials plan to ask for an additional
14,000 beds to be built by the end of
1991.
But those 26,500 new beds won’t
solve the overcrowdedness of Texas
prisons, says Rider Scott, who is Gov.
Bill Clements’ general counsel and
criminaljustice director.
“By November 1990, we’ll be right
back to where we are today, having
to slam doors of the prison shut, and
backing them (inmates) up in county
jails,” Scott said. “In 1992, then, you
would again look for additional ca
pacity.”
Prison capacity expanded by 50
percent from 1980 to 1987, but the
number of new prisoners increased
113 percent. During the same time,
a federal court ordered the state to
ease overcrowding by reducing its
prison population by 6,500.
Currently, Texas houses 38,500
inmates in 28 prisons. Another
4,000 state prisoners are serving
time in county jails as they wait for
beds in state facilities.
A 1987 study by the governor’s of
fice estimated that 20,000 additional
beds would be needed by 1991.
Not 7,500, but 14,000 beds be
yond the first 12,500 would be
needed by 1991, the group said.
Scott said that recommendation
was expected to become part of the
governor’s crime package in the next
Legislature, and he was optimistic
that the construction would be ap
proved.
“This is the largest construction
project in the state’s history,” said
Charles Terrell, chairman of the
Texas Department of Corrections
board. “It dwarfs anything ever
done in Texas and is second only to
California’s program in U.S. his
tory.”
Scott said the construction of new
prisons would eventually contain the
need for additional prison space by
providing a needed deterrent.
Now, the number of prisoners re
leased during the year nearly equals
the number admitted. In 1987,
about 36,000 were admitted and
34,000 were released, Scott said.

call 845-2611 to place advertisements in at ease.
The first 12,500 beds toward that
goal were made possible by action in
the last Legislature. Lawmakers ap
propriated $30 million for the con
struction of 2,000 units to be oper
ated by private concerns. And voters
authorized another $213.8 million in
bonding authority last November
for the construction of 10,500 units.
Construction projects already ap
proved include two maximum-secu
rity, 2,250-bed units in Gatesville
and Amarillo; and four 1,000-bed
regional correctional facilities in
Snyder, Dayton, Marlin and Wood-
ville.
Also approved were seven trusty
camps housing a total of 1,400 pris
oners; and four 500-bed, pre-release
centers in Kyle, Bridgeport, Cleve
land and Venus. Other additional
beds will be created by renovation of
existing facilities.
Construction contracts on three of
the trusty camps were awarded in
early March. Bids are due April 15
on the Gatesville maximum-security
facility, and will soon go out for the
four 1,000-bed regional centers.
Last month, law enforcement offi
cials meeting at a Texas criminaljus
tice summit concluded that the 1987
report had underestimated the
growing need for more prison beds.
The 14,000 additional beds rec
ommended at the recent Texas
Criminal Justice Summit include
8,000 prison beds, 2,000 for a “boot
camp” shock probation program
and 4,000 set aside for parole viola
tors.
