PAGE SEVEN BIRTH RATE DIP FOR JC0N0M1ST Over-Production in Industry ' and Agriculture Must Be Halted to Conform With Rapidly Shrinking Market By ALEXANDER R. GEORGE WASHINGTON (AP) A rapidly declining birth rate may be of scant Jfconcern now to t.he average producer or consumer struggling to keep out of the red but It has become a real problem for several economists. With over-production already di agnosed as a world malady, some thing must be done within the next quarter of a century, these econo mists assert, to gear agricultural and Industrial production to a prospect ively stable or declining population. In northwestern Europe, where most of our agricultural exports and a large share of the Industrial ex ports go, as well as In the United States, the birth rate has been de clining for 50 years. It Is clear, says Dr. Oliver E. Baker, , economist of the department of agri culture, that American farmers can not depend on continuous expansion of the northern European market. In addition to a declining birth rate, agricultural technique is ad vancing In northern Europe as It is In North America, Dr. Baker aays. In northwestern Europe the acre yields of some of the crops are twice as high as In the United States. Likewise, It Is apparent, econo , mists say, that the market III Europe for American manufactures cannot yte greatly increased. Industrial tech nique also Is advancing there, and post-war American opportunities are lessening as the continental nations become more and more committed to the policy of fostering and pro tecting domestic industries. Intensification of this nationalistic spirit and the desire for security with respect to the food supply has brought a wave of tariff enactments and other trade restriction measures. Dr. Robert R. Kuczynskl, of the Brookings Institution, whose survey of the falling birth rate in north western Europe shows "that these populations are doomed to die out unless fertility rises," says there Is not a single Industry In the United States that does not operate on the assumption of an Increasing popula tion. Consequently a stable or declining population. Dr. Kuczynskl eaya, will severely hit any American Industry that falls to adjust Its production and distribution to meet, such a sltu- at ion. While science may create new - consumer demands like that of the automobile, he believes that busi ness In the United states will have to accommodate itself -to more or less stabilized consumption as other nations, notably France, have done.

V Eighty-five members or the Jack son County Health association met at the home of Mrs. corning Kenly Wed nesday afternoon for the regular bi monthly meeting. It was the greatest number to ever attend and repre sented Gold Hill. Talent. Phoenix, Jacksonville, Ashland and Med ford committees. Miss Mildred Carlton, who but re cently returned from the White House child welfare conference In Sa lem, reported on the salient point of the conference, stressing the fact that 680 persons attended, whereas only 200 persons had been antlcl vpectcd. Concerning the economic turmoil. Miss Carlton pointed out, It was very interesting to see that child welfare efforts are not being neg lected. Miss Louise Basford of the public school system told the members what is being done for the mentally and physically handicapped child In Med ford. Many do not know that 30 crippled children are transported dally to school and carefully taken care of, that a special large cheerful room has been furnished for them with regard to their convenience. It is the only school system in Oregon which does this. It la a new idea and a rapidly growing one in the United States. Miss Carlton, in referrlug to the White House conference, informed the local association that Mrs. Sadie Orr Dunbar, presiding officer, made Associataj Press rnoio Velma Gresham of Hollywood career. smoker s anomer. . they don't keep it to themselves!
