VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Mother Eorth's Feeding Problems
By THOMAS R. HENRY

The human race is in
creasing in leaps. according
to the statistical yearbook
Of the United Nations for
1856, just published.
The present population of
the entire world is estimated
at about 1851 millions.
against 2,246 millions in
1910, 2.013 millions in 1880
and 1910 millions in 1920.
Approximately half Of this
population Is in Asia. Europe.
however, Is easily the most
densely populated and the
islands Of Oceania the least.
To support this population.
the yearbook points out.
there is q quite inequable
distribution Of available food.
Supplies easily available rep
resented more than 5000
calories per head per day for
the following countries:
Australia. Canada, Denmark.
Finland. Iceland. Ireland.
New Zealand, Norway. Swe-
den, Switzerland. United
Kingdom and United States
In Belgium. Luxembourg,
Netherlands and West Ger
many available daily supplies
of Galleries per person were
very close to 5000 and ex-
ceeded $500 in the Argen-
tine. Austria, France and
Uruguay.
At the other end of the
scale. available daily calories
fell short of 1000 in Burma.
Ceylon and India and barely
exceeded that mark in Hon.
duras. Pakistan and India.
Other Expansions
Expansion in numbers has
been accompanied by other
expansions, according. to the
year book. In 1855 there
were in the Notwithstanding
Russia, eastern Europe and
China-73 million passenger
automobiles - 70 per cent
more than in 1948 and more
than twice as many as in
1898. There were 1925. 900
commercial motor vehicles
56 per cent more than in
1913 and $50 per cent more
than in 1898.
Approximately rs per cent
of all the passenger cars and
So per cent Of commercial
vehicles were in North Amer
lea, chiefly the United States.
Europe accounted for only
II per cent of the former
and 26 per cent of the latter.
The Pacific islands had more
than twice as many passenger
cars as Asia, excluding the
Chinese mainland, and nearly
twice as many as South
America, but somewhat fewer
commercial vehicles than
either of these two conti-
nentS.
The statistical yearbook
gives data on the number of
physicians. dentists. mid
wives and pharmacists in
more than $50 countries. A
year ago the number Of in
habitants per physical n
among the more advanced
countries was only $50 in
Austria. TOO in Switzerland,
720 in New Zealand. 760 in
the United States and around
1000 in most European
countries. But among the
less developed countries there
was only one doctor per
81. 900 in the Sudan. one per
$1,000 in Nigeria. one per
$4,000 on the Gold Coast and
one per 9.700 in Kenya.

I want you to see that the
boy who delivers my paper
gets this small check as a
token of a man-sized job
rendered during the snow

thing was that the paper was
delivered at the customary
time. Such service rates

have received from your de-
livery boy. ! do not know who
he is. Never has my paper
been missing. 1t is regularly
on my front porch. If the
weather is wet or windy, l
find the paper folded tight
and placed between front
door and screen door. Despite
IA inches of snow and high
drifts, my Sunday Star was
firmly wedged between doors.
And by seven am. the boys
tracks were covered. This is
conscientious devotion to
duty in the face of difficult

express appreciation to him.

For some time ] have

prompt. polite. courteous,
and so pleasant. I must not
delay longer telling you Of
him. for even in the heavy
snow he has brought the
paper promptly and reg
ularly. I consider him one
OF the best carriers ever on

the average.

accomplishing his mission be-
fore 10 am. Sunday. Young
Mr.. Throop delivered my pa
per by walking and STUN
bling through a l4-inch snow
that drifUed to his waist. He
cleverly made two consecu-
tive deliveries-the first car
rying about half of the paper
the whole paper being too
bulky for his size) and the
second within a half hour.
The roads and houseways
were impossible and would
have discouraged a boy of
lesser caliber. His earnestness
of purpose. devotion to
duty" determination and
pride in working for your
eminent Star have made him
a fine. above-average beloved
American boy.

Most people are quite
prompt when it comes to reg
istering complaints. However,
they are lax when praise
should be given to any of
your newscarriers. When /
looked outside Sunday and
saw the amount of snow, /
never expected any carrier to
deliver the newspaper. nor
would / have been disap-
pointed had he failed to do
so. Imagine my surprise when
I opened the door and found
my Sunday Star carefully
placed between the storm
door and the front door so
that it couldn't blow away or
get wet. Any carrier boy who
would go to all the extra eff
fort to insure safe delivery
deserves praise for being con-
scientious and considerable.
This display Of loyalty to his
Job cost him extra time and
effort, and intend to show
him my appreciation by
words and also by some con-
sideration.
