OUR BIRTH RATE IS NORMAL Census Bureau Statistics Show That Births Exceed Deaths by About * One-Third. ‘The census bureau, on the strength of registered returns, gives figures to show that the birth rate in the United States exceeds the death rate py one- third, which Is a’gratifylng fact. We are not one of the natlons that need be anxlous on this vital point as far as present conditions are concerned, One of the most serious troubles -in France Is the warning iIn its censuses’ that in some years more of its inhab- itants die than are born. &ume of its neighbors grow much. faster In population. This disparity was some- what noticed in the past, yet without fully realizing the terrible menace in- volved. The desolated towns and zarms of France are a monument to | the old census admonitions and the awful sacrifice of young French man- hood is far more dreadful than the devastation. Often have the public men of France sounded an alarm on the defective birth rate. It is much discussed now by thoughtful French legislators and writers. A census al- ways demands Intelligent study. | The United States grows by immi- gration as -well as births, and our school system tends to Americanize the whole body of citizens.. Our schools are a great melting pot for Americans of the future and to in- creuse thelr proportionate number. The welfare of children is n great national issue. The birth rate and death rate need continuous attention.

Senator Hardlng stands for Americanism and Governor Cox espouses international- ism, ‘Harding is cautious about what kind of a league he and his party goes into while Cox wanis to wade right into the European league as proposed by President Wilson.
