FRANCE NEEDS
MORE CHILDREN
SAYS BERTNLON

Paris, July 2O.---"What France
really wants in order not to become
second class power says Dr..
Jaques Bertillion, of finger print
fame, ''is not a military law of three
years which will really only be
palliative, to be followed by demands
for four and five years service, but
more children, just as other coun-
tries have them" ~TFw
The d. tor shows that the year
1911 and 1912 have been the worst
ever registered in France. Before
1907 this country never had less
than 100000 births before 1887 she
had never less than 900, 900, and be
fore 1867 the figure was in the neigh
borhood of a million This, or near
ly so, was the number of births In
Germany at that period. But to-day
the number of births In Germany is
about two millions, while France has
10000 as a normal figure.
Outstripped by Other Nations
Holland with population of one
eighth of that of France, has a great
er number in men to record each
year 1t is often pretended that the
increase in the POPULATION is checked
in other countries as we'll as IN
France. The country is the case.
During the period of t90t-i590
Italy'a population increased 35t 900
Inhabitants. that OF Austria-IIun
gary by $4,000 and that Of Ger
man by $4,000. These figures,
crushing as they are for France, arc
lower than the present figures.
DR.. Bertillion then points out that
the number of marriages in France
rose to 311 ,929 in 1912. Few coun-
tries have so high figure in compar-
ison with their population. French
men marry readily enough. but they
lack children in their homes. They
have at present two or three, but
they should have three or four. Dr.
Bertillion says it would be nessary
to protect her honor, and especially
to help those who render to the coun-
try the valuable service of rearing
families.
Fruitful Topics for Writers.
The present condition of France
is fruitful topic for writer's. When
Germany announced her decision to
greatly strengthen her army there
ingno doubt in the minds of many
thinkers that she was making prep
arations for what they describe as
'the decisive hour. 1t became nes-
essary for Frenchmen who think and
write to take stock of the position of
thecountry and point out the dan
gers which threatened it, They rose
to the occasion. and no more readily
than NJ. de Nun, who was writing
book which is being discussed just
now
The duty which lies before France
is clearly indicated by NJ de Nun
Reviewing the book in the "Gau-
lois" NJ Emil Faguet, an Acade-
mician, dwells on one of the ques-
tions which the author discusses at
length, and which was the real rea-
son for writing the dook-the neces-
sity Of France returning to the three
years military system.
