bERL|N'S MAYOR
ANSWERS BENITO
Admits City Grows BY Influx,
Not BY Births

Berlin. Dec. - N-A statement
by Premier Mussolini of Italy. in a
recent issue Of the Roman newspa-
per Imperio. saying that Berlin was
n dying city Of superannuated peo-
ple." has drawn . reply from DR..
Gustav Boess, lord mayor Of Berlin.
Mussolini in his article enjoined
Italians to "be fruitful and multi
ply" and cited Berlin ~ an example
to DO avoided Of q city grown by in
flux from without instead of by a
natural. healthy increase in its own
population.
Replies In Press
DR.. Boess in replying through the
columns of a Berlin newspaper ac-
knowledged with regret that Berlin.
with 1t four and a quarter million
inhabitants, has tho lowest birth
rate Of any OF the worlds capitals.
Between 1921 and 1925. with an in
crease Of 213.s74 in population.
there was an excess OF 0S q thou
sand of deaths over births. while
Paris. with Z low birth rate showed
an excess Of O.6 a THOUSAND OF births
over deaths. although its population
had diminished by S5.043. New York
had a birth surplus of 80 per thou
sand between 1928 and 1925 with a
decrease in population of 5l.2s9.
Rome had surplus Of 8 per thou
sand with a population increase OF
1908. and Chicago 4 surplus of .
per thousand with 293,534 increased
population.
1t is true, DR.. Boess said, that
Berlin's population has grown by In
fiux and not by birth. Recent statis-
tics moreover. shows there are more
marriages than legitimate births.
Also Berlin has q relatively greater
surplus of women over men, the
New Britain herald. [microfilm reel] (New Britain, Conn.) 1890-1976, 1928-12-18

ration being 1177 women to 1000
men. This IL only exceeded by Paris
with 1910 women to 1000 men.
Rome has 971 and Chicago 972
women to 1000 men. In this and in
the fact that Berlin women are en-
gagged In trades and professions in
greater proportions than those of
other capitals. DR.. Boess saw as con-
tributory causes to the natal de-
ficiency. two-flfths of Berlin's trade
and business population are women.
compared to only one-quearter in
Chicago. The lord mayor added that
IS per cent Of Berlin brides were in
business up to the day Of their mar
riage.
As for Premier Mussolini's conten-
ton that Berlin is city Of old peo-
pie, DR.. Boess said only rs per hum
dred inhabitants are 60 or over.
whereas the proportion in Rome is
1O.1, in Paris 1914, and in London
81. although in Chicago the figure is
as low as SIS.
Summing up. the lord mayor said
the decline in births in Berlin need
not and must not continue. He be-
lieves the downward movement
would cease as soon as Berlin had
money to build homes, give its popu-
lation more air and sunlight and
more work and bread. He contin-
ued:
1.-The lack of new housing accom-
modations, the inadequacy of old
tenements, unemployment and poor
nutrition are causes why Berlin is
the only capital city without birth
surplus. Birth control is an instinc-
tive, but unwise method of self-help
by people against unemployment and
under nutrition. 1t is a popular fall
lacy to say that these evils grow
with the growth of the population
