"It Is divided Into two strikingly

"To the west, the land slopes
gently down to the ea in terraces
and fertile plains well suited to the
raising of rice. tea. sweet potatoes,

is enaged in agriculture. Two-thirds
of the island's tea crop Is the fa

scented Pouchong variety consumed
largely In the east.
"Life in Taiwan Is not as peace
ful as It appears on the surface.
Although the recent earthquake was
the most severe that has shaken
the island since 1908, when nearly
1500 lives were lost, earthquakes are
all too common on the island, which
lies in an 'earthquake zone.' During
the 24 yeara ending in 1932, over
j 7000 earthquakes have been regls

"Earthquakes are not the only dis
asters which afflict this beautiful
Island. Terrific typhoons sweep over
it annually, frequently destroying
sugar, tea and other crops; while in
the rainy season, the short, swift
rivers often flood the surrounding
country. '

wan from China, the Japanese have
gone far toward cleaning up the
island, fighting malaria wltl; hos
pitals, lgnurance with public schools,
and inadequate transportation with
r&Uroads. bridces and norts. Progress
was hindered by savage head-hunters
who sallied forth from thatched
mud-huts In mountain fastnesses to
descend unexpectedly on unwary
engineers, camphor gatherers, and
rice planters. Their skulla made
proud additions to the hunters'
gruesome collections.
"Japan began a strong campaign
to keep the aborigines in check,
segregating them by means of elec
trified wire fences, many miles long.
At first the head-hunters thwarted
Japanese plans by dipping under the
fences, or short circuiting them. As
the need for more tlmberland grew, i
the fences were ndvnncod. driving
the savages inland. Today the prac
tice of head-hunting Is rapidly dying
out. The aborigines are attending
schools, accepting medical attention
and learning to cultivate rice, and
to raise silkworms and cattle.
"The area that bore the brunt of
the earthquake is located north of
Talchu, a city of 42.000 in the heart
of the rice growing district in the
western central part of Taiwan."

Bill At Craterian
Old timers will net quite a "kick'
from the Mickey Mouse cartoon. "The
Band Concert." which opened yester
day at the Craterian theater on the
fame bill with Paul Muni In "Black
Fury."
"The Band Concert," as most every
body knows by this time, was a brain

his memories of his days with the
old Medford band to suggest the ac

way, in Technicolor. Some people In
the audience were heard to remark
that Mickey apparently was able to
K.et more from his heterogeneous col
lection of musicians than the old
band was ever able to do. Be that
aa it may. the fact remains that "The
Band Concert" is unquestionably one
of the best Mickey Mouse cartoons
ever released, taking its place with
"The Three Pigs' for entertainment.
"Black Fury." which stars Paul
