Water1oo0l Population Increases

This statement, it should be emphasized, Is
based upon comparison Of the present with
1884, the poorest season that we have ever
experienced.
Some areas normally favorable for waterfowl
have shown good concentrations Of birds.
Others have been less satisfactory. The most
important concentrations during the Winter
and late Autumn of the 1928 season, taking
all kinds of waterfowl into consideration, took
place in Western Lake Erie In Central and
Southern Illinois, in Louisiana, in Texas on
Mattamuskeet Lake N. c., in South Carolina,
and on Chesapeake Bay, in the East: and In
Montana, Utah, Washington and California, In
the West. These numerous local concentrations
of ducks and geese might easily give the I'M
preston that the birds were generally more
abundant than was actually the case,

The mere passage of old age pension laws or
the development of pension, annuity or re-
tirement schemes by industries will not solve
this problem of supporting the older age groups
of the future. Pension schemes that are planned
on the basis of the age distribution of the pres
ent population will. of course, fail few decades
in the future if they have to support double
or triple the percentage of elders that now
exist.
Because there are many childless couples
now for economic reasons, and because other
families are much smaller than they were

deaths has been upward, the high point oc-
curing in 1929.
Net immigration has been lowered since the
present quota laws went into effect and the
additions to the country from the rest OF the
world are likely to remain at a relatively low
level
All of these factors point to a slowing down
and a final actual numerical decrease in popu-
lation. The birth rate has been declining for
nearly a century and there is little reason to
expect this movement to cease suddenly. While
there has been a definite decrease in the death
rate of persons in the younger age groups, par
ticuarly of children under l year of age,
which has lowered the death rate in general
and increased the expectation of life at birth,
there is now a slight upward trend in the
death rates at ages over 49,

guesses, Drs. Thompson and Whelpton make
the following predictions of future United
