Although Half World Popu-
lstion Besides in Asia, It
Is Distributed Unevenly.
r‘BERLlN. May 26 .—More than one-
half of the human race lives in Asia.
but the distribution of the population
over the continent is very uneven.
Whereas the steppes of Siberia and
Central Asia are thinly populated. In-
dia. China' and Japan are teeming.
beehives of humanity where are liv-
Ing from 10 to 15 per cent. of the en-
tire Asiatic population.
In no other part of the world are
such drastic divergences to be found
in odicial statistics as those dealing
with the population of Northern Si-
beria and certain provinces in China
and Bengal.
This powerful congestion in Japan.
China and India. taken in conjunc-
tion with the high birth rates of
these coutries. gives rise to prob-
lems of a politral. economic and so-
cial nature. which will increase.
rather than diminish as time goes
on. according to an interesting survey
of this subject made by Albin Michel
in. the current number of “Die
Glocke."
The more these three densely pop-
ulated countries are ,drawn into the
world's capitalistic and economic
web, and the greater the facilities
for intercourse and traffic. the great-
er will be the unrest among the
hnasses. and the stronger will be the
impulse of a large percentage of the
native laborers to break away from
their old surroundings and seek re-
' “" ta”? '“""
munerative employment elsewhere.
Chinese emigration has been heavy
during the past few decades. Chi-
nese _ are at work on the rail-
roads of North America and the new
lines being constructed in the heart
of Africa; they are galley slaves in
the gold mines of South Africa: is.-
borem on ths'plantations of the An-
tiles group. in Brazil. Peru and
Chile: and ,when the transoeean 'lin-
ers reach dock they disclose hordes
of Chinese stokers and coal-heaven.
The European War gave a fresh
impulse to Chinese immigration. al-
though by no means as many cool-
lies could be transported to England
and France as was' at first contem-
plated. Droves of them made their
appearance in both, Asiatic and Eu-
ropean Russia between the years
1914-1917: they .were to be found
as far north as Archangelsk and
the Peninsula of Kola in the White
Sea: they were employed in the con-
struction of the Murman railroad.
were put to wot in the vast forest
districts. in the mines. the spinning
mills. were usodwonlhajarms and
railroads—everywhere replacing the
Muschiks who were thus liberated
for military service.
Japmi’s Problem
Japan has a far greater population
problem on her hands. owing-to the
fact that her births average about
700,000 a year. To be ”sure. there
are sparsely settled districts in both
Formosa and Korea. which would
serve as admirable outlets for Jap-
anese colonists. were it not that
neither of these appeal to the Japan-
ese for_the reason that the climate
of Korea is too cold. and that of
Formosa too warm.
China has all it can do to accom-
modate her own teeming population
and the Japanese have turned their
eyes to Mexico. now that the United
States has introduced such drastic
legislation against Japanese immi-
gration. Japanese immigration has
decreased since the war although
Brazil. for example. is offering a
special premium of about 876 for
every Japanese laborer. From 6.000
Japanese emigrants in the year 1913.
the 1921 quota had receded to 1.000.

that the million mark has been

In British India. the situation is
quite dillerent: here there seems to
be but little inclination to emigra-
tion. and thus the question of a con-
gested' Donulation‘remains more of
a problem of internal political I18-

foreign policy and colonial prestige.
Outside of China. Japan and In-
dia. the population of Asia is very
thinly distributed over the remain-
der of the‘continent. This is to be
explained by the severity of the cli-
mate in Northern Asia. lint there are
other M areas capable of support-
ing large colonies of laborers and
thus relieving the congested areas.
Anatolia. for example. whose man
power has been seriously depleted
by the repeated wars in which Tur-
key has been engaged during the
past ten years. could absorb large
