FRENCH BIRTHS LOWER
High Cost and Other War
Conditions Are Cause.
In Comparison With 100 years ago
Each French Marriage Brings
Fewer Than TWO Children,
Instead of Four.

Paris.-The high cost of living
lack of apartments and homes 70,
newly married couples, selfshness
too many women employed in indus
try, and too much pleasure are the
general causes assigned for the alarm
ing decrease of the birth rate in
France, now the lowest in Europe.
This is condition that has been
accumulated by the war, which took
large forces of men to the front,
whence many never returned The
war also created new conditions of
living for women, gave them work,
made them Independent, and disin-
clined to marry readily. and less in
clined to have children. This situa-
ton is set forth at length by ma
tional alliance for increasing French
population.
In comparison with 100 years ago,
each French marriage brings fewer
than two children, instead of four
children, whereas England's marriages
bring nearly three children instead OF
nearly five 100 years ago. In Ger
many in 1871 the average marriage
brought 4.44 children, as compared
to % in 1921
The birth decrease does not result
from high mortality or relatively
fewer marriages. Frances popula-
ton of 100000 in 1922 is practically
that of 1900. The number of mar
riages for that year was $4,000, or
about the average since then, with
the years following the war showing
a larger number, which is now return
ing to average. For 1921 the number
of marriages was 100000, and for
1922 it was little higher
Until 1914, the number of births av-
eraged 80O,0OO yearly. During sew
eral of the war years the number |
dropped to fewer than 100000. The |
first six months of 1922 showed 1885, |
726, as compared to 421 $50 for the |
first six months of 1921.
1t is argued that if France is to
hold her place in the world and send !
to her colonies, she must |
pass laws. as already proposed in
parliament, to give the voting major
ty to married men, reduce family l.
axes and give bonuses for each child
,orn. Already families enjoy. lower
'ailway fares.

IRRIGATION DITCH BUILT

Ruins of Aqueduct More Than
200 Years Old Discovered by
Workmen in Texas.

Workmen excavatlng for residential
foundations near the San Juan mis-
sion at San Antonio, Tex, have I'M
covered additional portions of the
aqueduct built more than two cen
turtles ago by the Franciscan monks for
Irrigation of their fields near the mis-
sion.
These ruins, added to those which
we're uncovered about 25 years ago,
have enabled scientists to describe ac-
curately the surroundings of the IA
nous old mission In it's prime.
The scientists sent from the Univer-
&ty of Texas declare a veritable Gar
den of Eden surrounded the mission
in the early days. Tropical flowers
and fruits grew in abundance In fields,
stretching out from the mission for
nearly half mile In every direction,
irrigated by the aqueduct water sys-
tenn the monks had devised. The
water was from the San Antonio rivQf.

sity Of Texas men searching through

PRINCE MUST EARN LIVING
Aage of Denmark Serves in French
Army After Loss in Bank
Failure.

Copenhagen, Denmark.-Prince Aage
out in a recent bank failure, has gone
to Morocco to earn living as major
in the French colonial forces. Just
before he departed, at the time of the
Christmas holidays, he said he was
genuinely sorry that he could not take
up an active business career in his
own country. He had never enjoyed
anything more, he added, than the Job
he once held for several months in a
foreign branch of a well-known Ameri-
can firm, neither his employers nor the
other employees knowing his real
identity.
In Denmark Prince Aage was called
the American prince His habits and
tastes were similar to those character
izing citizens Of the United States.
Most of his intimate friends were
Americans, and their mode Of life was
his. Soon after the war the prince
visited the United States, plunged into
society, and adopted many American
ways.
Recently it was thought desirable to
use the prince In an ambassadorial ca
pacity, but with his fortune gone he
was unable to accept post paying
only a small income. So he has en-
tered military life, having the reputa-
ton of being one of the finest soldiers
In Denmark. Princess Aage and the
couples five-year-old son have gone
to live in Italy at the home of the
princess father, Count Calvi di Ber-
colo.
