GERMAN DEPOPULATION PROBLEM.
The Reichstag os concerned with problems which threaten the German birth rate. It is recommended to get workers away from, the cities to where they can have small detached cottages in which light and country air and nutritious food can be obtained. This course would tend to increase the number of births. It has been learned that about half of the mutilated soldiers arc marrying women older than themselves, a custom which is pernicious for repopulation. To check infant mortality more children’s clinics will be established. —"La Press Medicale.”
