Andorra, in the Pyrsnees, dates
from the time Of Charlemagne. The

over the little state. The President
of France, 90 successor Of the kings,
still receives 900 francs n year trib-

Weather conditions have changed
very little throughout the eountry
since yesterday morning, except that
the high pressure area and attendant
low temperatures haved rifted east
ward slowly, causing decided drops
in temperature eyer the southeastern
states and Florida this morning. As
O result the weather was fair to
clear and unseasonably cold prae-
tieally throughout the United States
this morning. Early eloudliness con-
tinued over South Texas, however.
during the last "a hours, with light
TO moderate rains practically the en-
tire length of the Rio Grande VAL
ley. and temperatures slightly above
freezing probably throughout the
Lower Valley. Except for q disturb
anee off the New England coast no
low pressure areas prevailed on the
morning weather map. AS a result
conditions will remain rather mac
tive and temperatures will probably
remain sub-normal in the Valley for
several days more.
