PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL -TRIBTOE.- MEDFORD, OREGON FRIDAY. APRIL 30, 1937, TO 'Graustarks' Remain Serene Despite War Hysteria In Neighboring Countries Might Be Swallowed Up. FAR IS (UP) With thi world tripped fevurlshly In another arma- tmlldlng race and a scramble to ! achlave superiority, there atlU re main a few atatea that have not been , touched by the war-preparing fever. Three of them, Luxembourg, Monte j Carlo, Andorra, border on France and live on friendly terma with their i big neighbor, who has always guar anteed to respect and safeguard their Independence, The other, Llechten- , stein, lies between Swlteerland and t Austria. As Chancellor Adolph Hit ler has never mentioned poor Ltech- tensteln la his Anschluss program, the Inhabitants rarely find them selves In doubt about the future and ' About Internal intrigues threatening ' economic and territorial stability. Of these four states, Luxembourg 1 la the largest and the one most en- ' d angered by war preparations. Lying at tha corner of Belgium, Franca and ' Germany, and possessing rich Iron and coal deposits, Luxembourg is very likely to fee swallowing for territorial and economic reasons in any future European conflict. More over, precisely because of the arma . race, it Is experiencing one of its - greatest economic booms. . Luxem- . bourg mines and foundries are work- Ing overtime to meet Iron and uteri orders from neighboring states. Modern Army of 300 . - The Duchy of Luxembourg pos sesses a "large" police force and an 9 army, with giant - barracks in the ; capital city of the same name. The , army, equipped with modern arms, t runs almost to 300 and might re t slat Invasion for several hours In some war, unlenn, of course, one ' neighboring state occupies its torrl Vtory In defense. Although existing ".treaties stipulate neutrality for Lux i.ambourg, neutrality even backed up wih armed support, It la likely that I the 4-uxembourgeols would look upon ' Invasion or armed occupied defense ' with much the an me view. The sit ' uatlon of Its citizens would not be , different In either case, as any mod- era cannon could fire over the coun i try not to mention on It. The Republic of Andorra, with a ' people's army of all able-bodied male ' citizens, la not In auch a dangeroua ' position, for the lofty Pyrenees that surround It are a better protection than all present-day treattea. Nev ertheless, tiny Andorra is already feeling the effects of war. Frightened , lest the Spanish civil war might lead -'-either belligerent to Invade, 'Andorra has called for help from France. Its , capital and the surrounding moun tains are covered by a French army company which has answered the call and went to aurvjty Andorra's Independence. Smuggling Now Rife But the Spanish war brought worse results than preventive occu pation. The Franco-Spanish smug gling trade, a large part of which passed through Andorra, has been eliminated, and with it Andorra's economic life. With the French com pany now charged to apply non-intervention, the Andorans soon will be ready to quit, too. Monte Carlo, world renowned re sort and gambling center, has no army, though a beautifully uniform ed police force and a picturesque guard which hoi da parades to enter tain visitors only. It has never faced the troubles of war In all Its exist ence, though danger of sea bom bardment or coastal Invasion has In creased since France and Italy began quarreling over whether inhabitants of the Cote d'Azuar are French or Italians. Sharing France's good fac ilities for transport, Monte Carlo has been enriched by a steady and wealthy tourist trade, and Is suf fering in no way economically. , Moreover, Its few hundred citizens are losing no sleep over the war dan. Marsha without ' Array Liechtenstein, which recently cele brated Its 06th anniversary, posses ses the tiniest army of any state In the world. It single soldier, Field Marshsl Kleber, has the unique hon or of being exactly the same age aa bla fatherland, Just 95. Ke took part In bis country's first and only war the Austro-Pruasisn war of 1600 where he la aald to have cov ered himself with glory. Kleber still marches up and down for admiring officers In hla 1866 un iform, complete with Qras rifle, bay. onet. stripes and plumed helmet. Without a band to give htm march ing seat, Kleber has Ingeniously de veloped a huge white beard so that no one notices that It Is himself whistling to keep martial step. A rare photographer relieves his nor mal habit of atandtng before a mir ror when undergoing self-imposed drill. The camera also serves to re place the illusion of enemy rifles. Whst will be the fate of these tiny statea if the predicted war sweeps Europe? No one knows, but some feel that they will be awallowed In the territorial changes that follow. Feudal Lord Dead TOKYO (UP) The last of the Dalmyo Is dead and Japan no longer has a living representative of that colorful age when feudal lords ruled the countryside by force of arms. Marquis Nagakoto Asano died at the age of 06, surrendering after a val iant battle to lung and heart afflictions. College Wrestler Unpinned KENT, O. (UP) Kent State uni versity's heavyweight wrestler. Car men Falcone, has yet to be pinned In collegiate competition. Falcone, after completing the regular season unde feated, won the Inter-atata title, but lost on a decision In the national meet. However, hla shoulders never have touched the mat. - Canning's Her Dish WHEELER, Tex. (AP) Mrs. Jess Crowd er of Wheeler has won 322 rib bons st regional and state fairs since she began canning meats, frulta snd vegetables six years ago, a part of a home demonstration club program. IN DIXIE STATES, SURVEY REVEALS Population Is Shifting At Swifter Rate To Middle West, West, Northeast Rural Areas In Decline. "If the rural population la di vided Into rural farm and rural non farm (persons living In towns and villages of less than 3A00 Inhabi tants). It la found that 46 percent of the people of the south live on farms," Taylor aald. For the country as a whole, only 35 percent live on farms. In north eastern states fewer than 10 percent of the population lives on farms. In 1000, three-fifths of all the gainfully employed persons over 10 years of age In the southern ststes were on farmv nayror aald. In 1030 two-fifths were on farms. Birth Bate Higher "One -fourth of the nation's pop ulation which Uvea In the south annually contributes one-third o( the children born in the nation," Taylor sstd. Further, this area con tributes, nearly one-half of the ex cess of births over deaths, that Is, the natural Increase In the popula tion of the nation. The south has more -than Its share of young persons, slightly less than its share of old persons, and con siderably less than Its share of per sona In the middle-age groups, Tay lor said. 1 In the nation aa a whole, slightly less than three out of every 10 per sons are under SO years. In the south, more than four out of every 10 per sons are In this younger age group. "The basic explanation of the age distribution of southern population can be found In two facts: first, the excessive migration from southern states of young adults; and second, the dominance of rural population in the south, where there, as else where, has more than Its share of young people and less than its share of the middle-age group," ' Taylor aald.- Exodus to East, Coast "Where do the people who leave the south go? There are three major streams: One flowing Into the north east, chiefly Into New York, Penn sylvania and New Jersey; another flowing Into the middle west, chief ly Into Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and Michigan; and a third flowing into the west and northwest, chiefly Colorado, Arizona and California. ' "As would be expected, the stream to the northeast Is mostly from Virginia. Florida. North Carolina and South Carolina. The stream to the middle west is mostly from Alabama. Mississippi, Tennessee and Kentucky. And the stream into ths west and northwest Is mostly from Louisiana. Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma, Taylor said. ' .

FBEB at western Thrift Stores WASHINGTON (UP) The popula tion of the south Is shifting In large numbers to cities snd to other sec tions of the country, according to a survey by the department of com merce, i The urban population of the south constituted 10 percent of the total southern population in 1600; 30 per cent In 1010; 95 percent In 1920 and 82 percent In 1030, the survey showed. This wss an Increase in urbaniza tion of 17 percent in 30 years, ac cording to Carl C. Taylor, department economist who made the survey. The national Increase for this same per iod was 16 percent he said. Despite this migration to cities, the south still is the most rural sec tion of the country, Taylor aald. About 68 percent of the southern population la rural as compared with 44 percent of the national popula tion aa a whole. 33 Million vn 13 States In 1030 there were 33,711.663 per sons In the 13 southern states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Car olina, Oklahoma.
