"The population will, I think, begin to decrease slowly about 1950. The increase at presdnt is entirely due to the preponderance of young lives in the population, which keevs the crude death rate (about 12 per 1,000) very much below the real death rate (about 18 per 1,000). A decline in numbers would relieve the terrible burden of unemployment, which, in part at Jeast, is clearly due to overâ€"population and a little more elbowâ€"room would be very desirable." ‘"The whole face of the country," bhe writes in The Evening Standard, "will be spotted with bungaloid growths, within which childless couâ€" ples will sleep, after racing about the roads in their little motor cars.
