FRENCH COPFFINS AND CRADLEB
One of the interesting problems of
the war is, what will be the effect on
tile population of Frances—the great
“mi-e suicide" nation?
in the last eight years there has
been more demand for comns than cra-
dles in France. The vital statistics
report fdi‘ the first half of 1914, just
published, shows that during that
time the deaths exceeded the births
by about 3,000 a month. At that rate,j
experts estimated, the population of ,
any French comuuity. would be extin-
guished in 125 years.
The situation is due, apparently. not
to racial decay.but to established so—
cial policy. The French have .simply.
adopted the custom of having only two
children to a family, as. a means of
maintaining their social and economic
condition. Whether this system is in-
trinsically good or ball is not a ques-
tion to be decided offhand. There are;
two sides to it. While most observers
have criticised this refusal to real
large families as immoral, or as evi-
dence of failing vigor and ambition in
the" race. other have praised it as a
flourish, were landed in a conspicuous
place.
The Turks immediately satherd their
forces, rushed guns forward and ab
lacked the landing party, slaugli'ieriag
‘ a lot of the donkeys. while the British
force. placldly landed and entrenched
itself three miles away.
