From the Lincoln Times, Lin
colnton, M. O.: Recent surveys
have shown that the population Of
the world is increasing by some
100000 citizens year. The
boom in world population began
after World War II and is contin-
uing steadily.
Because there are no longer
many large areas Of productive
land open for migration. and be-
cause the world has shrunk and
population increased daily, prob
lem Is to be faced. eventually, con
corning the feeding. clothing and
housing Of our steadily increasing
population.
Birth rates. Of course, are the
highest in under-developed coun-
tries, where people are never ade-
quately fed, clothed or sheltered
In fact, il is reported that more
than half the people Oh earth to-
day are hungry.
Unless scientific and technology
cal improvements can keep pace,
and then some, with the growing
population, millions and millions
Of babies and young people will
continue to 60 hungry, and The
figure might even increase This
aggravates All already pressing
population problem, especially in
countries Ike China and India.
All Of which brings Us around to
the question of outer space There

make it more difficult for federal

The Society has urged passage
Of a pending bill which would as

gress lG9 years ago cannot be used
to keep information secret today.
AS might BE- expected, the change
is opposed by government depart
ments. Tn a sense this is under
standable. The ability to decide
what information should b. made
public IS a kind Of power. and Off
Gals surrender power with reluct-

No reasonable person will dis

information secret. When our ma

people are willing to suspend their
right To know.
