'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. -

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. ' .

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. Louisiana, Georgia,
Florida, Mississippi,- Arkansas, Ala
bama, Texas Arkansas and Tennessee.
ACHING HEADS
AND SPOTTY EYES
Don't let constipation ruin your

sage of cheer: "Kellogg'a All
Bban has sure been a godsend to
me. This is tha' Arst relief I have
ever had. Believe me, I will be a
booster for Kellogg's All-Bran as
long as I live!" C. T. Davidson,

to many diseases. Unpleasant
breath, blotchy complexions, spots

runners of worse to come.

tablespoonfuls daily in chronic
cases with every meal. Serve it
