The rest of the world grew too. The 1050 world population was a-bout 545 million, the 1950 popula- tion about 2,400 million.

A lot of those 2,400 million people are hungry.

While Europeans have cut. death rates in some cases below 10 per thousand per year. much of the world has higher rates. Just how high, it is difficult to say. Reli- able statistics are lacking.

But while Europe was growing some of her peoples also cut birth rates. They were cut so low in some casesthsltblrths did not keep up with deaths. Before World war ii the French were ecreas- lnvg by 1.4 people per thousand per year. European-type people in- creased their birth raies during World War ll, but most experts think this is temporary. licnce birth rate figures on the map are prewar. They are from selected countries.

Why and how birth rates were reduced. the experts are not sure. 'But most of them think low birth

And even today, with higher war and post-war birth rates. they are still expanding. The higher birth rates since World war 11 give France 300.000 more people a year. Italy has half a million more I year. But Japan averaged 1.001,- 000 more per year betlzwcen N47 and 1949.

Japan is only one of the points on the world map in which popula- tion danger signals are flying. Three quarters or more of the world has high birth rates. per- haps about what they were in Europe before 1050.

Modern aid to underdeveloped nations has shown that death rates can be cut in these areas. The map shows some of the points at which this has been done. But birth rates do not come down at the same time.

Pucrlo Rico, for instance had less than a million people in 1000. Today she has more than 2,200,000. If she continues to grow at the current rate the number of her people will again double in 2.5

years.
