Would Favor Big
Families in France
PARIS, Jan. 23.——Notwithstanding
the fact that the birth rate of
France has been steadily decreasing.
statistics for the first. ten months of
1923 show that there were 639.012
births as against 597,063 deaths.
The explanation given for this is that
the number of deaths shows a. large
decrease as compared with recent
years.

Back to the Farm
Movement Under
KOENIGSBERG, Jan. ~23—A back
to the farm movement has taken,
place in Germany. especially East
Prussia. according to Dr. von Ba-
tocki, former provisional governor
of that state. In a lecture recently
on rural welfare work he said many
farmers' sons who went to war had
begun to resume their old tasks on
the farms.
After the war, said 1r. von Ba-
tockl. there was a. tendency among
the farmer boys to drift to the cit-
ies and industrial centers. where
there were more attracticns. The
unsettled conditions and closing of
manufacturing plants with the con-
sequent cutting off of Ehelr p
caused them to drift back'hoxnc.
