War Born Generation Pays The Penalty For Chaos of Year 1915 .Mrs. Caroline Mlsllch. of Flint, is another Michigan woman who faces probable life im prisonment under the habit tut 1 criminal code. Like Mrs. Kiln Miller, mother' of 10 children, Mrs.MUHeh was held for four offenses against tne prohibition law", nnd four offenses make n life term obligatory, Kf forts are helm? made to stay her sentence. Hy John A. Itnutium (Associated Tress Htuff Writer) HKIiUN lAD-dmnnny'n first generation of war children ap proaches maturity weakened hy approximately S.MMUHiu "casual tbs," The destruction of life and the short a ire of births during the war years will have uu Important ef fect on the tlerman labor market nnd the development of the repub lic. This fact becomes apparent us the Children horn In 1UIA ap proach tho end of their IcmuI schoolluK. The urban labor question Is en Ka Kinir dose attention of all (ler nutn imiuUipulttlcn, whose repro scututlvcs meet every year In enn Kress to compare noti-s and uirree on measures for the Koud of their communities. .Much C item piny n ten t Cnemployinent has passed the l.htMi.auo flKuro In December, al though tho Pawes plan culls for greater effort, more Intensive pro duction nnd larger exports. The trouble confronting Herman em ployers at the present time is chief ly that there is not a sufficient number of skilled nnd uble-botlled workmen to ro round. It estlmuted that Germany, mvtnir to Uio world war- lost 3.5UU. muo ImiIiIch that would otherwise have been born, and this is why there is today a marked shortUKe of apprentices or learners In dif ferent trudes. who would In course of time become skilled artisans. In a report by Professor Her mann T. .MurRcnroth. eminent Mu nich statistician, it is shown , that ' whereas the wnKe-carninir popula tion between 1& und ti& within the present confines of the iteich has. tri-own hy 5iu.utio,ono durlur tho imst decadi, the ffeneratlon below 15 has decrejised by 4.000.ooii, Moreover, tho u vertigo worker's axe has. by lYiisen of the war, risen to a point well past what Is con sidered the peak of productiveness. German workmen of the present day. Professor MorKenroth points out, tiro1 mostly "past their best," and the next Reiteration is nut coin inr up In sufficient numbers to fill their ranks. German workmen of flte present day, Professor Morten roth points out, nro mostly "past their best," and tho next generation is not coin 1117 up in sufficient numbers to fill their ranks. ' Hcwhlnir I'oor Helicf This Is Illustrated by the fact that In the main urban centers In Germany from 10 to 12 percent of tho total population receive unem ployment or poor relief. Counting In their dependents, Professor Mor frenroth comes to the conclusion that nearly one-third of tho large urban populations nre temporarily or In some measure permanently a charge on public charity. What is troubling municipalities also la thut .the normal tafltt f healthy, hardy younjr'workin; lad from the country is sit ow lag sj ds tinct shrinkage. Municipalities da not wck-ome ' the. older - od Im altUvhodbtfl eh'iuents, wb r tiof likely to becutne sooner-dependent upon public n lief In somu form r other, but tho youns country-horn men, who once flocked to the clttes In great numbers, can no lenffer be spa reel by agrlcutturat Interests. This Is a vital problem for the towns, for, n Professor MenreA roth puts It: "The future prosper Ityt of our big growing cities tf pemis In tho first place on bow they will be able to provide ado, quately paid work for tltelr popula tiuu, but also very much on their success in attractlnK ; capnldo wurkcis from outside." Kce tircnt Ktmjuilo All slsns. he says, points to a coming great strugglo between 1S30 and ltt:t5 by industrial inter ests for the possession of strong young: workers. , .. How powerful the attractions of tho towns has been in tho past 1 shown hy tho fact that only 40.3 per cent of the Inhabitants of cen tral Iterlln nro native Her liners. In the Nuburlis only 17.7 per cent were born there. The so mo thlnft ap plies to Munich, where only 39 per cent of tho Inhabitants nro city horn, nnd to all other large Ger man centers. . - - .
