A mathematician figured out some years ago that if all the mountain ; slopes were flattened into a level I surface, the country would be larger than France. The highest point in Switzerland ; is Dufour peak, 15,600 feet, named ; after a Swiss general of the 19th -century. It is located in the Monte Rosa group in the Canton of Valais, near the Swiss-Italian frontier. The lowest point of the country is the level of Lago Maggiore, Canton of 1 Ticino, 670 feet above sea level. The population of Switzerland is unevenly distributed, with the denser areas in the west and north of the country, it totals about 4.3 million inhabitants, or slightly over 256 persons per square mile. Politically, Swit- I zerland is divided into 19 cantons | and six so-called half-cantons. Geneva, the town of Calvin, is very conscious of the fact that it ; gave birth to Protestantism and has , kept in its libraries and museums , all the documents pertaining to the , first days of this religion. It is the town of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The | buildings of the League of Nations | still stand about a mile out of the ; town on the lake.

J. Edgar Hoover, director ef the FBI, rppurted to the department of justice that crime figures revealed a 7.5 per cent rise in crime in the rural sections for the first at the year. During the same period, however, mere was a decline of 2.3 per cent in crime in* cities as compared witk the first six months at 1946. Hoover observed that although there was a drop in urban areas! the figures were still more than II. per cent above those of the first half of 1941, a prewar period. Breaking down the report into various classifications, the FBI noted in the first half of 1947 that burglary increased by 17.1 per cent in rural areas and 2.1 per cent in urban regions, compared with the first six months of last year. * Rur^rl larcenies rose 13.9 per cent In comparison to 1.1 per cent in the cities.
