At first glance II would appear that
the United states does not make bad
showing, but an explanation of the
table is made by Mr.. Rossiter. He
says:
"The adult white population of the
United States bears the same relation to
the younger element of the population
as Is shown in at least two OF the
European countries, but If the classif-
cation be restricted to the reasonably
native element-and hence made more
comparable with the European figures
the proportion advances to figure Q.O
but slightly less than the highest pro-
portion shown for Europe"
Further along in his report Mr.. Rossi-
ter calls attention to the fact that the
ratio OF children and women since 1890
has been cut in half. In that year the
average was nearly two children to each
woman 1G years Of age and over, but in
1900 this had fallen 70 scant one to
each woman. The report continues:
at the census nearest to 1900 the SINH
lar ratio in Great Britain was 10; In
France. 0S; In the German empire, IL.
and in italy, IL. Since the United states.
although aided hy large numbers OF I'M
