Foreign Cars
Interest Us
It would be nice If someone could
stop all the car with far-away state
license plates, and ask the drivers
about the interesting things they are
undoubtedly doing. As it is, one can
only note the number of out-of-state
cars, and be glad of the fact that
Medford has so many attractive spots
to Interest the people who own them.
If there were only some hardy soul
who would flag them down and ask
them what they think of this great
country, without appearing too much
like a hitch-hiker, Jackson county
might start some sort of guest book,
with space for remarks. As it Is, we
all know that any number of inter
esting people are here, coming and
going every day of the summer, and
we're pleased and proud of our val
ley, but we'd like to know more of
them, better.

of whom were cut off by the Chinese
advance.
British forces numbered 950; and
French, BOO. A Russian volunteer
company was summoned to duty.
The American marines took up
duty along the northern border ol !
the international settlement.
Ignore Foreign Neutrality
Chinese contended that in 1933 the
Japanese used their International
settlement areas as a military base.
Now, the Chinese indicated, they
do not intend to recognize the neu
trality of foreign settlements.
From the foreign standpoint, this
creates the gravest phase of the crisis.
Chinese said that If events "neces
sitate the move," they intended to
enter the settlement to meet the
Japanese on their own ground.
Foreign authorities saw grave dan
ger from the incoming hordes of
Chinese soldiers. They numbered
many thousands, and the stream con
tinued during the night.
Meanwhile, munition-loaded motor
boats sped from the Japanese war
ships to their landing party base
and shuttled back for new loads in
an endless procession. Sailors cleared
the vessels for action.
