QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York' (U.R) The just-announced United Nations count of heads in this world puts it at 2,652,000,000 with 37, 000,000 being added each year and the rate of increase going up. If you think of taking a popu lation roughly the equivalent of that in the whole northeast re gion of the United States (New England plus New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) and slamming it every year onto the globe's livable land in addition to the humanity already there, you've got an idea of what's happening. A gazeteer will show' you that there are around 50,000,000 square miles of land space avail able for habitation. This is ex cluding the six ' million square miles of Antarctica, which may be a nice place to visit but doesn't seem to draw many per manent residents. With 2,652.000,000 human beings already in that 50,000, 000 square,jniles, and the yearly increase gaining on itself (it was only 20,000,000 per year in the 1920s, 23,700,000 in the 1930s, 25,400,000 in the 1940s, and jumped to 37,000,000 in 1950-54) someday the Earth is going to find the statistics catching up with themselves in a human glut. At that point we presumably are going to be standing on each other's shoulders or sitting on each other's laps, which might be more interesting provided there are enough blondes. Cold Figures The United Nations "Demo graphic Yearbook 1955," just published, gives the cold figures, as of mid-1954. It does not ven ture a cure. The big growth since 1950, comes from higher birth rates plus longer life expectancy due to medical science and im proved social welfare. The UN's marshaling of cen sus reports and estimates pro duced some interesting side lights. A girl born in Holland can expect to live to the age of 72.9. A girl born in India can expect to live to 31.7. These are ' the highest and lowest life ex-: pectancies among countries re-! porting vital statistics to the UN. ! In most countries, women live two to seven years longer than men. The male-female ratio is sort of an East-West affair. - There are more women than men in ; American and European cities, ; fewer women than men in Asian and Arab countries. In cities of 100,000 or more in Denmark, Sweden, England and Wales there are only about 89 men to 100 women. But in Cey lon the figure is 173 men to 100 women. In that behemoth of countries, Communist China, the popula World Population ; 37,000,000 Annually tion, as near as the .UN can make out, is 582,600,000. In 1948 it had 463,400,000. . The Communist countries, on the basis of census reports and estimates, have more than 900, 000,000 population more than McKay Takes Bid For Senate Seat To Astoria Area Astoria (U.R) ' Douglas McKay carried his campaign to capture the Republican nomina tion as U. S. Senator to Astoria yesterday where he had a full round of visits to canneries and business establishments planned and a luncheon address before the Kiwanis club. Wednesday the former Interi or secretary visited Newberg, McMinnville and Seaside in his quest for May 18 primary votes. At Seaside McKay followed up his earlier criticism of Sen. Wayne Morse and his actions in Congress. Cites Morse's Record Specifically McKay singled out Morse's record regarding the tightening of mining laws to pro tect timber lands. McKay pointed out that five years ago, while he was govern or of Oregon, the state Legisla ture passed a memorial asking Congress to tighten the mining laws to prevent the filing of claims for the purpose of obtain ing timber. "Morse neither spoke for the memorial on the floor of the Senate nor did he introduce a bill to implement the wishes of the people of Oregon as ex pressed by their legislature," McKay said. "It wasn't until the Eisen hower administration a law was passed by Congress in 1955 which accomplished in part the objectives of the 1951 legislative memorial from Oregon," McKay added.

The city . health department disclosed yesterday the three infants had died since Monday in the nursery. The department said a preliminary study by epi demiologists indicated that the deaths were caused by a staph ylococcus infection. . . Dr. George M. Uhl, city health officer, said the infection threat ened an undisclosed number of babies who were quarantined to the nursery. He said no new in fants have been admitted to the hospital following the outbreak. Uhl said the department's re search investigators were at tempting to determine cause of the infection in the hospital nur sery. He said if local authorities were unable to halt the spread of the infection, the California Health, department would join in the study. . . ..
