"END OF BRITISH EMPIRE"
PREDICTED BY SALVATION ARMY COMMISSIONER a DECLINING POPULATION Pres.j Association —By Telegraph—Copyright ' LONDON, September 13. (Received September 14, at 1.45 p.m.) The end of the British Empire is predicted by Commissioner David Lamb, of the Salvation Army, who, in an address to the British Association, cited Sir Josiah Stamp’s statement that a stationary population felt the' impact of science more severely than a growing one. Commissioner Lamb added that science was partly responsible for the stationary or declining population threatening the white races. This decline sounded the death knell of the British Empire, which could not be held and developed in the face of a steadily increasing population and pressure elsewhere.
