DROP IN WHITE
BIRTH RATE MAY
Be RACE PERIL
Old World Still Requires
100 Million Babies to
Assure Supremacy.
BY RICHARD d. MCMILLAN
United Press stan Correspondent

the white race may be condemned
to disappear, French statisticians
declare.
Although 100 millions we're added
to the population Of Europe in the
three decades since 1890, the old
world still requires at least another
+. 100 million babies.
This Is because the increase in
population in the past thirty years
IS represented by a diminishing
death rate, thanks to science af-
fording a greater life span for the
individual.
World Of Old People
II the declining birth rate goes on,
the old world really will be a world
Of old people. with young folks few
and far between Already youth as
registered by comparative statistics
Is becoming a rarity in Europe.
The French admit that reproaches
for the dearth OF babies should be
leveled first at this country, which
even before the war was deploring
the emptiness Of the nations cradles.
Frances birth rate remains the
lowest in Europe. England comes
second, next comes Sweden, Bel
GUM and Scotland.
The war killed of millions Of
the young in most Of these coun-
tries. unbalancing the after-war
proportions between the youthful
and aged, which was accentuated
By an almost infinitesimal birth
rate during the war years.
But as one moves eastward in
Europe, the same conditions do
not apply. The small families Of
the west are outnumbered. with
the excess increasing the farther
one moves toward the Orient.
Italy Little Better
In Italy, Czecho- Slovakia and
Russia. there has been q diminu-
ton in child birth, but 1t is only
slight when compared with sta
tistics for the other countries
mentioned.
Estimates are that the natality
crisis will not hit these countries
for at least fifteen more years.
In this the statisticians find the
threat in the future to the white
races.
II white children are lacking to
fill the places in the civilized world,
then the yellow races may overflow
from Asia, invading the vacant
spaces Of Europe and. eventually. all
the lands where the white race now
predOminates.
