Americas 10 Biggest Problems
No. 8
How Many Americans, And What Kind?
By WILLIAM FIELDING
orDUInAT

By WILLIAM FIELDING
OCBURN
Research Director, Presidents
Committee On Recent
Social Trends
written For The Associated
Press)
For the first time in his
tory it is a practical question:
to ask how many people we
should have. In the past the
population increase from inn
migration, but not that from
births, could be regulated.
It is not yet clear that The size
of our population can be dictated
by public policy, yet the nations
are tending that way. England,
Japan, Italy and France are active
ly developing population policies.
But do we know how many peo-
pie we want?
If we do not have enough people
we cannot develop our industry
and natural resources. If we have
too many we may have unemploy-
ment and the standard of living
will be low or it will be raised more
slowly than it would if there were
fewer people.
What Large Population Means
For the manufacturer large
population means a market, for
the real estate owner higher
value for land. For the imperialist
large population probably means
more power. For the individual.
family the problem may be that
of providing education and eco
nomic advantages. For the wage
Garner it is likely to mean a lower
standard of living.
The increase of population in
United States is rapidly slowing
down. BY 1875 we may have a
stationary population of, say, 1867
600, 900, or even declining popu-
lation.
Where Shall They Live?
Another important question is
where shall the people live? In
congested or implanted cities or
dispersed outward from urban CEN
tiers, How large should our cities
be? 1t has been thought that peo-I
pie would solve these questions by
living where they found it most
comfortable since they were free
to move. But the answer is not
quite so simple. Regional and
urban planning which would lead
to a better distribution is greatly
needed.
There also is problem of the

eBy associated Press,
MIAMI, Feb. 20.-Guiseppe Zangara pleaded
guilty to assault with intent to murder President
elect Franklin Roosevelt and three of his five victims
The plea followed the judges refusal to postpone the
hearing
The assassin told the Judge he was sorry he didn't
kill Roosevelt and said he's "siCk all the time" and
didn't like the way capitalists take all the money"
Zangara said he did not want to shoot Cermak
or anybody else except Roosevelt, and that he did
not regret what he had done.
He said the American people had mistreated
him and he didn't care if he lived.
He also said he thought maybe the 'cops will
kill me if I kill the president"
Zangara said he was not crazy and that he had
picture of Roosevelt in his pocket when he tried the
assassination.
Somebody moved my arm" he said. "They were
crazy they should have let me kill him."
Defense counsel said they believed the plea Of
guilty was the proper procedure but this mans
mental state at present is puzzle
Imprisonment on four charges, each carrying maxi
mum penalty of 20 years
Specific charges were attempted assassination
of Roosevelt and assault with intent to murder Rus
sell Caldwell, William Sinnott and Margaret Krus.

a social misfit,' was read in court.

Asked if he wanted to live, he shrugged his shout
