Economist Declares Gain Is More Than Half Per Cent a Year. BY JOHN F. SINCLAIR. Epecial Dispatch to The 8tar. "NEW YORK, June 26.—Robert R. Kuczynski, T economist, estimates that the world's population is increasing each year at the rate of about five-eighths of 1 per cent. Thus the earth would soon be erpopulated. ¥ wnul Ehe present rate, says the econo- mist, “is largely due to an age com- position which tends to swell the num- ber of births and to lower the number ths.” o(sge‘ll the fecundity and mortality re- main what they are, the proportion of old people will increase; this means that the birth rate will decline further and that the death rate will mount. So the immediate dnnlfi;?’t general overpopu- is neutral N hu’l"’k‘l‘e Brool Institution carried on an jnvestigation into m matter :::d und that fecundity already de- ::‘l)med s0 much that the number of children in all the countries of Western and Northern Europe, North America and Australia combined is no longer sufficient to replace the reproductive age Thp: institution, by its figures, shows that the Anglo-Saxons, Germans, Scan- dinavians and French no T Tepro- duce themselves. They are med to die out and their countries sooner or later will be occupied by other races. “This is the conclusion of the Brook- ings Institution.

The general upward movement of prices has been arrested largely by consolidations in the manufacturing industry, says the National Industrial Conference Board.. Based upon 60 lines of manufactur- ing the board's study discloses that the general upward trend of prices from 1900 to 1925 has been much less pro- nounced in those branches of manu- facturing in which industrial consoli- dations have been a dominant factor in the market. ‘The rise in prices in the 26 lines of manufacturing so affected was only 28.8 per cent, as against a rise of 110.6 per cent during the same period in the 21 lines of manufacture which have not been affected by the merger movement. In the 13 remaining branches of manu- facturing, in which consolidations have been formed to & limited extent, prices during the same period rose about 70.7 per_cent. ‘The interesting fact. however, brought out by the study of the board, is that the popular impression .of the financial success of consolidations generally is illusory. = These mergers did not prove exceptionally profitable, Their com- bined record in this regard was found to be not much different from that of independent business concerns. ‘The conclusion of the conference board indicates that up to 1925 indus- trial mergers brought about lower prices to consumers and steadier employment for employes.
