Asked If President Roosevelt's recent utterances
aneut race suicide had awakened any interest in
France NJ Gruen replied that they had furnished
2 basis for much healthy discussion among French
people Of all classes
..-The reople of France" he continued, have
long been Indifferent TO the threatened de9opula-
ton OF their country, but the remarks of your
President marriage have stirred them up to take
action TO prevent If possible, the continuance OF
race suicide among them. Only a month ago
NJ Plot the Senator for the Department Of the
Cote d'Or aroused public attention TO what we
call the national danger-the depopulation OF
France-and through his efforts an extra parlia-
r7eutary committee studying the subject IN
su its nhases NJ Plot has further proposed
scheme to the government which consists in the
institution Of an order of merit, with cross and
ribbon for the mothers Of large families in France,
as recognition Of the country's Indebtedness to
them and as an encouragement to young married
couples"
Replying TO the question whether he could give
1n explanation for the gradually decreasing popu-
letion OF France, NJ Gruen said without heslta-
tion:
.,cr,- women The majority OF them nowadays
In NV country are too frivolous. They object TO
shouldering the responsibility and care OF large
