A senator asserted that the United States treasury has been “looted” of eight billion dollars. He gave no explana- tion of his charge, but added that he would demand an in- vestigation be made into the activities of the commission. First House Built Here Under GI Bill Offered For Sale!

The farmer must have a large family to help jhim. The family must be kept to- gether in a close-knit unit, rooted \to the land. Stability, permanence, junchanging customs, the sccred importance of rice and the land on which it grows—these are the jdogma of rice paddy civilization. Thus, Dr. Irene B. Taeuber, of iPrinceton Univer: Office of ,Population Research, and other scholars explain the high birth rate—about 45 per 1,000 per year. Death, too, is profligate in its} reaping—about 39 persons out of }1,000 dying each ye: (In the pUnited States the death rate is 10.9 per 1,000 per year, and the birth rate is 21.5 per 1,000, giving an annual rate of increase of 10.6 per 1,000.)
