 Rooms, LIN Reports

Lake Success, N. Y-The birth rate in the United States is under going the biggest boom in its his tory, according to figures contained in the March issue of the United Nations Monthly Bulletin of Sta- tistics.
 After decreasing steadily from 1915 to low point in 1883. the rate in the United States rose from I'll births per thousand inhabitants in 1887 to an annual rate of 28.8 in November, 1946. A high official of the United Nations statistical of flee described this increase as un- precendented in the United States.
 Fifteen of the 20 countries in- cluded in the tabulation show a sharp increase in the birth rate. Only India and Egypt show any noticeable decline, while the rates in Uruguay, Chile and Belgium are static.
 The trend appeared to be more closely related to economic factors than to wars, according to the of ficiaI report.
