A LONDON OF TWENTY MILLION
That Will Be lts Population in 1875
An Enslishman Predicts.

There is something almost breath
taking in the statement by Arthur
Grow, in a lecture to the London so
ciety, that in less than so years--that
is, during the lifetime of not few of
our readers--London will have popu-
lation of 100000.
A century ago England's capital
held, roughly, 100000 people. Today
1t counts 100000 more inhabitants
than the whole of England held when
Elizabeth reigned.
There are actually more people in
the Greater London of 1915 than in
Scotland and Wales combined, mil
lion and a half more than in the whole
of Australia. with New Zealand
thrown In, and three times as many as
in Norway.
According to Mr. Crow, such as
founding figures will seem almost con-
temptible to the Londoner of 1878,
when the population OF our capital will
be greater than that of the British
Isles in the year OF Waterloo, and
when It's people will outnumber those
of five European countries today
