BERKELEY, Cal. (UP) America's population will reach & maximum of 142,000,000 In 106S and then drop ap proximately 4,000,000 in the next 16 years to 1080, according to Prof. E. F. Penrose, economist and population expert of the University of California. Penrose finds that while the Ameri can population and birth rate are still increasing, nevertheless fertility Is on the decline. The two things that are keeping up the American Increase in popula tion, Ponrose says, are its present high birth rate arid the large Immi gration In the past. Fertility, as represented by the actual number of blrthe, Penrose finds, is falling in the United States as the result of several causes. These, are restricted Immigration, birth con trol, late marriages and economic In security, which tend to restrict large families. Even should tho present immigra tion restrictions be modified to per mit B0.000 more Immigrants yearly up to 1040 and 100.000 after that In definitely, he says that the population still would start to decline In 1970. In that year It Is estimated that the population would reach a maximum of 140,000,000. but with a drop of 2.000.000 within tho next two years. The one problem which population experts have not been able to solve, Penrose says. Is whether this inevit able drop In population will prove a detriment to national welfare. Tn the event it does, he points out that northwestern Europe and Australia will have the same problem to face. 4 An adult class In music appreci ation and muslo literature, open to anyone interested, without charge, is being oflered by the music depart ment of the city schools.

Shippers Clearing Through British Columbia Ports, Company Bulletin Says- Other Factors Adverse The maritime strike has not proved so serious a factor in the exporting of west coast fruit as bad been an ticipated, It Is stated In the current trade bulletin ' of American Fruit Growers, Inc. . "All foreign ship lines are now loading fruit at New Westminster and Vancouver, B. C," the bulletin says. "We are Informed there la little like lihood that trouble will occur In British Columbia." There la only one longshoremen's union In New Westminster and It has a three year agreement with the city find principal shippers, the bulletin said. Since the contract haa two years to run and since all parties to the agreement have worked harmoni ously In the past, no difficulty tc an ticipated. The bulletin continued: Extra Cost Cited ' "We are able to sand our fruit to New Westminster and Vancouver from Medford for an additional 34c ner box cost. The steamshln lines are also absorbing 6c per box On tne otner nand buyers are not buying as manv nears at this tlms as thnv did before the strike occurred and most of the fruit going up to New Westminster and Vancouver for load lntr was sold nrlor to the strii. rhrm have been very few pear sales made ror export since the strike." The bulletin commented on export business as follows; "Our business In exoort on all commodities up to this date in the waaon (from Julv first) is nut hif of the business we had done up to me same time last year. This Is due to a number of causes, the most im portant of which are: "(a) Large crops in some countries of Europe, notably the United King dom, and. to a lesser extenf.. in tv. Scandinavian countries. "(b High duties, tariffs, embar goes, in some others. (c) Our high domestic level of prices on both barreled and boxed fruit, which combined with such tar iff or license fees, makes our ?,-i of less interest to foreign buyers."

(UP) "LaFayette, we are here-for our mathematics," well might be the words used as they report for classes under Marquis Andre du Motter de LaFayette. Fourth generation descendant of the French patriot who helped win American Independence, the marquis takes his ancestry and many other honors that have been conferred on him very lightly. At one time he was page to the court of King Edward VII of Eng land and received In recognition of his services the Order of the Garter, one of the highest distinctions which England ever confers on foreigners. One distinction of which he is really proud is that he is an Amer ican citizen by two rights, and he is especially proud of his second cit izenship because he earned that him self. As a lineal descendant of the Marquis de LaFayette of the revolu tion he was already an 'American citizen as well as a French citizen by reason of the act of congress passed after the American revolution which conferred American citizenship on all descendants of the co-llberator of the American colonies. However, when the Marquis de La Fayette came to the United States In 1921 he took out his regular citi zenship papers. Then to acquaint himself more fully with the laws and Ideals of his second fatherland, he attended "citizenship classes" Finally as a test of his own abil ity, he took the necessary examina tions and won his second title to American citizenship with high hon ors. He taught for a number of years in private schools In California be fore he became a public school teacher. His transfer possibly may have been due to hie wife. She was formerly Miss Florence Dinkle, a Monterey school teacher. They have two children, Caroline, 8, and June, 13. LaFayette served throughout the World war and Is a member of the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars. His presence with the American expeditionary force was due to the fact that he was attached to them by 'the French government be cause of his knowledge of English. But to the students of the Albany high school, he Is Just "Mr. Fayette." except when they don't happen to know their lessons in mathematics, when they emphasize the "Mr." f Heavy rains soaking drought- stricken Lornd, Kas., confused even the fish.
