WorIds Growing Population
Noy Turn to Synthetic Foods

most Of Asia and Africa. the
rates are based on estimates.
Figures Indefinite.
Actually nobody knows within
100 million what the population
Of the world is because many
countries with large populations
have no census or vital StatiS-
tics. For example, information is
either lacking or inadequate for
much Of the Middle East Asia
and Africa. China remains a
population enigma and the So
Wet Union releases no COM
prehenSive statistics about it's
people. Yet despite these limi-
tations, students of population
are able to make quite realistic
estimates Of numbers, growth
rates. birth and death rates for
the extensive blank areas on the
world population map.
The arithmetic of land econ
mics is memorable. OF the worlds
1T million square miles, about
100 million is water. OF the
lands 81 million square miles,
only 80 million can be called
fertile. About 10 million is
rugged steppes or mountains
and 5 million is desert.
Quite obviously there will
never be more people living on
the earth than there is food to
sustain them.
Large increases in the present
production of food and goods
and vast improvement in distri-
button are essential, say the bu-
rea's researchers, before even
today's population can be pro-
vided a decent subsistence"
What is needed is a modern
miracle of loaves and fishes.
SynthenticS Seen Answer.
The bureau suggests that the
answer to the worlds food prob
lem might be found in synthetic
foods: Yeast, algae, plankton
and products turned out by
chemical factories.
Theoretically an alga known
as chlorella could produce from
is to 20 tons of dry matter hav-
ing a so per cent protein content
per acre At present, a few hun
dred pounds have been grown
in a pilot plant.
Potential sources of more food,
the bureau warns, do not justify
the claim often made that tech
nology will be able to produce
enough to feed an indefinitely
increasing population. If death
rates are controlled and fertility
continues at the present level,
it would take only 30 years or

+ The worlds land mass doesn't

1T is growing at the rate of 40
persons a minute-about 10000
Ia day. Only a few years ago the
rate was 43 a minute-about

The tragedy is that, despite
stepped up food production, more
than half the worlds people to-
day are underfed, underclothed
and inadequately housed, &C

starving. More are breeding

prove q greater threat to the
future of mankind than the

3 Pace Increase Seen.
{ World population is growing
at an unprecedented rate, the
bureau said, and this pace will
increase as modern medicine
and technology bring longer life
to the people of such under
developed countries as India,
Pakistan and China.
S Projecting this rate into the
future. the research group pre-
diets that the current world
population of 2ha billion will rise
to about z billion by the year
