MORE COFFINS
THAN CRADLES.

The English nation is becoming
alarmed over the fact that more peo-
ple are being buried than are born IN
that country. This discovery has been
a source of alarm in France for some
time, and Notwithstanding the various
means to encourage an increase in the
birth rate, the number of collins pur-
chased annually is still greater than
that of cradles. A cotemporary IN
speaking of this says:
England is apparently fast becoming
to rival France as nation where the
rule is "more collins than cradles"
Recent investigation disclosed the
fact that the average number OF OFT
spring of an English army officer Is
two, which is just half the number
necessary to carry on the race. Births
among professional men and in society
circles are even lower.
To encourage "a greater birth rate,

cry child of one year. This resulted
in considerable increase in births.
Now the granting of bonuses TO
mothers throughout the British En-
pire is urged as the only means OF
keeping up the birth rate. =,
The relation between births and
wages cannot be overlooked. But it
is not to be bridged over by bonus
of $25 or so. A far more effective
way to encourage the raising of
families is to make employment stea-
der. Where the nature of the indus
try. is not stable, agencies should be
provided which would enable the man
laid off in one industry to obtain a
lob some place else without too great
a loss of time and earnings. When
men working for wages find it easier
to provide for children, when the
dread of out of work ceases to haunt
them, the birth rate is sure to go
up.
