U. S. WILL REACH
FULL GROWTH IN
Population Stable at 140
Million Then Is Expecta
tionBirth Rate Is Now
Showing Steady Decrease
By Alexander R. George.
WASHINOTON. yp) Political par
ties a few years hence probably will
have platform planks "viewing with
alarm" a prospective decline In pop
ulation while campaigners harangue
on the dangers of what Teddy Roose
velt called "race suicide."
For a restricted Immigration and
a rapidly declining birth rate, accel
erated by the business slump, sre
speeding the United States toward
a stationary population.
The prospect of a stable, or de
creasing, population la commanding
unusual attention from economists
who see It as a vitally significant
factor In mass production and con
sumption and the whole economic
picture of the Occident.
Dr. Oliver E. Baker, economist of
the department of argrlculture wno
haa made special study of the popu
lation problem with relation to land
needs, says the prospect Is for a sta
tionary population of 140 to 145 mil
lion In the United States about 1060,
provided Immigration does not in
crease or the birth rate rise.
The outlook for either, he says, Is
not bright. A 10 to 20 per cent
deficit In cities in the number of
children necessary to maintain a
stationary population now Is Just
about balanced by the 60 ' per cent
surplus of children on farms and the
30 per cent surplus in the non-farm
rural population, mostly villages.
"Since the proportion of the na
tion's population which Is urban Is
Increasing and the proportion that is
rural is decreasing, It appears like
ly that the birth rate will continue
to fall rather than to rise," Dr. Baker
says.
He also points out that the out
look for increased Immigration ts not
encouraging especially so long as
there Is a considerable amount cf
unemployment or the threat of un
employment.
Ten years ago the population of
the United States was Increasing at
tne rate of nearly a .000.000 a year
Now the Increase is less than 1.000,-
000. Between 1021 and 1031 the num
ber of children bora In the United
States dropped from about 2,940,000
to about 2,300,000. The net immigra
tion declined from 300,000 to a loss
of more than 70,000 emigrants ex
ceeding Immigrants and the number
of deaths increased.
The Increase in deaths, Dr. Baker
explains, was not because people were
dying faster, but because there Is an
increasing numoer of old people. The
number of people over 6fl years
or age Increased 34 per cent between
1020 and 1030. according to the cen
sus, whereas the number of children
under five years decreased one per
cent.
There were about 150,000 fewer
births in 1031 than in 1030. The
rapid decline In the birth rate since
the World war Is ascribed to two
major Immediate causes the reduc
tion In European immigration and
the Increased migration from farm
to city. -
The immigrants from Europe were
mostly young people, recently mar
ried or of marriageable age, who
came from peasant farms where the
tradition of large families persisted
The recent awlft decline In the ratio
of children to women of child-bear
lng age in the cities has been largely
confined to the population of for
eign birth parentage.
The reasons for this are that foreign-born
mothers are growing older
and therefore having fewer children,
while native-born mothers of foreign
parentage are adopting the American
custom of small families.
For many years native-born motn
ers In the large cities have not been
having enough children to maintain
even a stationary population.
The farm to city movement has
been one mostly of young people.
Since farm people have a much high
er birth rate than city people this
migration of the young to the cities,
where they will have fewer children
than on the farm, Is further reducing
the nation's birth rate.

To all these offers Jane responded

not make her relation to her father

DECEIVING THE INVALID WHO IS DOOMED
Against my will I was compelled to
take part In what I deem cruel and
unjustifiable deception of an old
friend today. There
came a letter
which opened thus:
"Your articles al
ways Interest and
encourage me,"
and then went on
to tell about the
correspondents Ill
ness. The corre
spondent Is an eld
erly person, and
everything the cor
respondent told me
about the illness la false. Just lies.
Not the correspondent's lies, though.
The letter cloees thus: "A friend of
mine Is writing this for me, as I am
unable to write . . . urgent need of
your help ...
"I am your sincere friend and ad
mirer, "
Then there Is an added paragraph
In which the correspondent's friend
warns me tha't Z must pretend to be
lieve the Illness Is the comparatively
minor one the correspondent has been
led to believe, where au the truth Is
that 't la cancer and the correspond
ent la doomed to die before many
weeks ... so I must suggest a fake
diet and other things which are of
no earthly use . . . The correspond
ent's friend carefully omits his own
address, and that leaves me with a
choice of telling the correspondent
the truth or taking part In the de
ception. If It were anything less seri
ous I could pretend I never received
the letter, but In this case that Is Im
possible. Viewing the question partly from a
professional and p rtly from a sub
jective standpoint, I am convinced
that such deception of s dylnc. per
son Is wrong. It might be Justifiable
to deceive a young person, particular
ly a child, about his condition. I
cannot see why we should hesitate to
Inform a grown man or woman that
he or ahe has cancer, for Instance,
and that we are unable to cure It.
I can't understand how such de
ception csn be considered compatible
with religious faith or faith In the
hereafter. Even If the patient be
without such fslth. I still do not
understand why the patient should
not be told the truth.
Surely, the man or woman who has
had 60 yeara of life has no kick com
ing If It happens that Is all he or
she ts destined to have here.
And who knows thst the patient In
this case has not aomethlng he or
the evidences of affec:!on and sell
them as dearly aa possible.
Rewards ar, one thing, bribes quite
another.
They cheapen the quality of al
most everything In the child's world
and rob his efforts, hla accomplish
ments ot their real value to him. For
he will not always be bribed to to
good, to work, to learn, or to show
affection. And when the Incentive
of the bribe la removed he Is left
without a good set of standards ot
his own.

Just around the next corner? Think
of that, you good people who delude
yourselves you sre being merciful and
kind In deceiving the Invalid who Is
doomed.
I have never known a woman to
show cowardice or to lose her dignity
when Informed she has Incurable can

grown men and grown women. If a
woman can take It on the chin, what
excuse can we have for keeping the
truth from a man?
Maybe I'm wrong but. as I say, this
Is my opinion, based on professional
experience and on my own subjective
Impressions. I have seen some rather
sad cases In which the Invalid dis
covered the deception and found it
hard to forgive- those who purported
to be friends. I have never seen any
avoidable sorrow caused by frankness
with the Invalid who Is doomed.

most children harbor worms at one
time or another, but rarely do they
suffer any disturbance from them.
Careful study of large groups of chil

and of other groups In similar en

from worms, showed that grinding of
the teeth prevailed as much among
one group as among the other. That's

Standard cubes were lifted to 10c or
the same price as so-called extras

of print butter Is automatically ad

Recent strength In the butterfat

There was no change In the price

NEW YORK. May 3. (P Whi(
oils and some of the leading InduPV,
trials msnaged to hold the line on
today's stock market, much of the
list was still In retreat. There were
numerous losses of 1 to 3 points at
the finish, and the closing tone waa
heavy. The turnover waa again less
than 1,000.000 shares.
Weakness of the dollar In the for
eign exchange marketa, apparently re
flecting fears abroad of Inflation here
as a result of passage of the Golds
borough bill by the house, and heavi
ness of some of the principal com
modities, were unsettling factors-
Nevertheless, selling was meager In
the aggregate.

COMFORT
for COLICKY BABIES
. . . THROUGH CASTORIA'S
GENTLE REGULATION
The best way to prevent colic,
doctors say, is to avoid gas in stomach
and bowels by keeping the entire
intestinal tract open, free from waste.
But remember this: a tiny baby's
tender little organs cannot stand
harsh treatment. They must be:
gently urged. This is just the time'
Gas tori a can help most. Castoria,
you know, is made specially for babies
and children. It is a pure vegetable
preparation, perfectly harmless. It
contains no harsh drugs, no narcotics.
For years it has helped mothers
through trying times with colicky
babies and children suffering with
digestive upsets, colds and fever.
Keep genuine Castoria on hand, with
the name:
