SURPLUS WHITES
PARIS (UP) Africa cannot sup
port many mors whites than are
there now, for most of the African
continent does not favor white colo
nisation, according to French statis
ticians. With a few figures, these statis
ticians prove that the climate and
geographlo conditions of the "dark"
continent are hostile to white men
and that therefore the arguments ad
vanced by Italy and Germany for ter
ritory in Africa as an outlet for re
lieving the over-populated conditions
at home are fallacious ones.
All of Africa, after a century of
colonization, only contains a total
white population of about 3.530.000.
Although northern Africa bordering
the Mediterranean has been known
and colonized by whites for centuries,
a really concentrated colonial move
ment Is relatively modern, dating
back approximately half a century.
It Is pointed out by statisticians
that It Isn't lack of space In Africa
or, overpopulation by native peoples
that has hindered white migration
for this continent, which covers
about 11.000,000 square mites, sup
ports a total population of 180,000.
000, which hardly compares with
congested Europe, one-third Its size
3.750.000 square miles with a popu
lation four times as much, or about
650,000,000.
The contention that moat of the
area of the second largest continent
In the world Is not favorable to white
settlement is borne out by the fact
thot 00 percent of the white Inhabi
tants are concentrated In the tem
perate northern and southern ex
tremities. The Union of South Africa has the
greatest proportion of whites, with
3.000.000, while French North Africa,
comprising Algiers, Morocco and
Tunis, has 1,200.000, Viie remainder
of Africa supports the remaining
35C.0O0 whites.
Divided by national possesatoni.
Great Britain leads with 2,154,000
whites In her colonies. France Is sec
ond with 1.240,000. Portugal third
with 85,000, Italy fourth with M.000.
and Belgium last with 9(1.000.
Germany, which was considered
one of the greatest of colonizers be
fore the World war, in 1011, after 35
years In colonization, only succeeded
In amassing 15,800 white subjects In
all her African colonies.
Italy, with her three African pos
sessions Lybla, Eritrea and Somali
land, with a total area of nearly
000.000 square mllea only has a co
lonial population of 56,000. Of this
total, only 4.100 are located In Eri
trea. 3050 of whom are settled In the
capital town of Asmara.
Lybla, except for the stretch along
th coast, is an uninhabited desert.
Most of Somaliland Is a lowland
reeking with disease, while only the
north of Eritrea can support any
kind of a population.
Although there still remain certain
sections of Africa which have not yet
been explored or seen by white men
snd are still left uncolored on maps,
It is generally agreed by most scien
tists that Africa could not furnish
healthy subsistence to many more
whites than are there now. They be
lieve that the saturation point has
almost been reached.
The conquest of Ethiopia by Italy
and restoration to Germany of the
colonies which were taken from her
aftflr the war would not start a flow
of Italian and German lmmlgroats to
Africa, say these scientist, and the
manner of relieving the congestion of
the Italian peninsula and the Ger
man nation would still remain nn- ;
solved. I

PARIS (UP) The City of Part
spent more than 94,000,000 In 1835
caring for orphans, children aban
doned by their parents and those re
moved from their families by the
courts. There were 30,579 children
under the direction of the Assistance
Publlque.
These figures were revealed In tnc
report presented to the general coun
sel of the department of the Seine,
which Is Greater Paris.
During the year, the report stated.
1,400 children were bandoned by their
parents, and another 300 ruled by the
courts to have been "morally aban
doned" by their famines, were taken
away from them and placed in puo
Ho Institutions.
The mortality rate In these Insti
tutions was reported to havo been e
tremely low, and the results of plac
ing children in the country highly
satisfactory.
All abandoned children In the de
partment of the Seine are sent to the
departmental orphanage, except for
babies under four months, who go
a special Institution from which they
are placed with families which con
sent to nurse and bring them up to
the age of 13 In the provinces, for
which they receive payment from the
government,
After 13, the children are divided
into two groups those who show
special aptitudes, who are placed in
technical or trade schools, and those
who are found places as farm helpers.
domestic employes, and so forth, in
the latter case, in addition to suppoit,
the employer of the stave ward pays
60 to 300 yearly for the child's
work, which Is turned over to the
Assistance Publlque, which banks It
In the child's name until his majority
when It is given to him as a neat
egg to help him establish his own
home.
For children sent to agricultural
schools, the department tried the ex
periment of creating "loans of hoa-
which enabled 427 graduates of
agricultural schools to set up homes
and get a start In life during the
year.
Wards of the Assistance Publlque
are not abandoned at their majority.
The organization regularly grants
loans to enable Its charges 'of both
sexes to marry, and gives aid In cater
nf need, if the circumstances make
It appear that help Is deserved.
The report touched on a darker
side of the problem of caring for
homeless children when It advocated
the organization of a medico -pedagogic
institute to take care of way
ward, abnormal and Incorrigible chil
dren. Instead of sending them to re
form schools, against which much
criticism has been leveled recently.
Recently a newspaper woman was
reminded that there Is a law against
reporting the proceedings of the chil
dren's court, but told that she would
be permitted to continue to attend If
she would restrict her comment to
such points as the need for better
quarters for the court Instead of in
dulging In sociological criticism. Ihe
reporter's accounts of proceedings In
the Juvenile court, in which the spirit
of the law was maintained by citing
no names, apparently had aroused ju
dicial anger because of some of oer
articles describing the minute faults
for which children are sometimes sent
to reform schools such crimes as tak
ing five francs from the family pock-
etbook, for Instance, for which a
small boy was sent to reform school
until his majority.
The chief criticism leveled against
this system is that It mingles young
children who are sometimes sent Co
the institution only because there is
no one to take care of them, and it
seema a simple way of disposing of
their casos. and youths well along In
their teens.
