By the Assoclated Press. URBANA, T, February 14—The size of the American family of native stock in one generation has decreased 3812 per cent, according to R. E. Baber, professor of sociology at the University of Illinois, who added that today the native stock family has less than three children, while it requires four, under the present mortality and marriage rate, to re- place the stock without increase. “It is not necessarily a tragedy that much of our native stock is dying out and that our increase comes wholly from foreign stock, for for- eign s certainly not synonymous with inferior,” said the professor. Yet few will admit the desirability of such rapid replacement of our native stock, for it contains some of our most precious population ele- ments. When we see 13 per cent of our native families childless, and 18 gnstruction group, 7:30 to 8:30. ¥. V.

From one-half to three-fifths of our best educated women are having no share in producing the next genera- tion, due either to non-marriage or childless marriage.” Some women know too much to get marrfed and others don’t know enough.
