Majority—Wide Variety

of'Occupations.
A despatch `frons' London 'says:
There 15 evidence in thee. estimated•
figures of the number of emigrants
who embarked in Scotland for. Canada
between March. 1 and May 81 of an
increase in the Row of emigration. In
March $Pproximately 2,900 emigrants
sailed for Canada from Scottish ports,
ire ;April over 4,000, and in May over
6,000, the estimated total for the three
months being 12,000and theaverage
per month being about 4,000..
The average for the first three
months of 1923 was .about 1,000 per
month, and for the second three
'months about 8,400. In the whole
year 29,070 Scottish eimgrants land-
ed.in Canada, This year the emigrant
season began earlier in the spring,
and, as will be seerearom the figures
given, it has already reached a higher
rate per month: If this increase is
maintained throughout the season the
total for the year will exceed that
for 1928.
Although men and women of a wide
variety . of trades and callings have
been among, the emigrants, the main
classes in point,of numbers have been
farm workers' and'domestic servants.
These have been drawn Ihrgely from
the rural, districts in the Northeast
and North of Scotland, while between
800 and 900 persons have gone from
the.' Outer .Hebrides, teeAlbertaa and
Ontario.

'Liechtenstein Included in
Treaties With Switzerland
The British Government has an-
nounced its agreement to the inclu-
sion, in all treaties between Great
Britain and Switzerland, of the prin-
eipality of Liechtenstein, which, be-
fore the, war, to all intents and pur-
poses,' farmed-. part of AustriarlRun-
gar,,:says a London despatch, The
territory concerned amounts to only.
sixty-five square miles, but there are
12,000 persons living hi that area, and
they are singularly blessed in that
they have never hitherto had to pay
any taxes or $tate expenses of any
kind, these costs being defrayed by
the Prince of Liechtenstein himself.
The principality dates back to 1143.
It has the unique distinction of being
the only European country still at
war with Germany, hostilities dating
-back to 1866, the time of the Austro-
German war. The principality re-
