An Older Population The birth rate in North Dakota has declined from 22 per thousand popu- lation in 1924 to about 19 per thousand in 1933, according to a report released by the University of North Dakota of- fice of the state planning board by Dr. Irvine Lavine, consultant. Deaths during the same period of 1924 through 1933 remained at 7 per thousand. In 1924, the number of births exceeded deaths by 14 per thousand, and rose to thte highest point of 15 per thousand in 1925. By 1933, the birth rate had dropped un- til births exceeded deaths by only 11 per thousand. In concluding the summary, the re- port lists the fact that the excess of births over deaths has been decreas- ing, indicating that slowly but defi- nitely older people v&ll make up a greater proportion of the population of the state. As a result of this trend, more emphasis will have to be placed on problems of care for the aged, in- cluding old age pensions.
