A Study of the Growth of American Families
Field work has been completed for a national sample study of the growth of American families. Its objectives are: (1) to study expectations of size of family as one basis for better forecasts of births; (2) to describe differences in fertility behavior for major population strata; and (3) to test the relationship of basic social variables to fertility behavior. A national probability sample of white married women in the childbearing years has bee…

The Outlook for the Control of Human Fertility in Japan
D URING the eight years from I 940 to 1947, inclusive, in spite of the war, the population of Japan as now constituted increased by about 8,oooooo (from 7',100,000 to 79,I00,00). About 6,900,000 was due to an excess of births over deaths and i,IOO,oo to net immigration (mostly returning soldiers and net repatriates).' During the two years I948 and I949 the increase amounted to about 4,000,000, most of which came from an excess of births over deat…
Cohort Analysis of Fertility
IN I933 there were 2,3I2,000 births in the United States and the crude birth rate was i8.4. In I947 there were 3,876,ooo births and the crude birth rate was 27.0. In other words the number of births in I947 was 68 per cent larger than it was I4 years earlier, and the crude birth rate 47 per cent higher. Since I947 there have been only small declines. In I948 the number of births was approximately 3,7I5,ooo and the crude birth rate 25.4. Present i…

Progress Report on the Study of Social and Psychological Factors Affecting Fertility
T HE Study of Social and Psychological Factors Affecting Fertility is a natural sequel to the studies of contraception carried out during the 'thirties by Pearl, Stix and Notestein, Beebe, and others.' These earlier studies afforded rather clinching evidence that group differences in fertility are due almost entirely to group differences in the prevalence and effectiveness of contraceptive practice. They demonstrated for the first time that class…

T HE variations in levels and trends of human fertility have important international and domestic implications. The imbalances in fertility among various countries of the world constitute the genesis and core of world population problems and must be taken into account in plans for world peace.

Birth Rate Trends and Child Welfare
DURING the last decade there has been a significant reversal in the trend of the birth rate. In the twenty years from 1914 to 1933 the number of births per 1,000 white persons declined over one-third, from approximately 28.0 to 17.2, with only four of these twenty years showing a slight and temporary break in this downward trend.' The bottom of the trough was reached in 1933, however, for the rate rose to 17.8 in 1934 and to 18.8 in 1938

Levels of Living and Population Pressure
population pressure cannot be an important factor in international relations, since the peoples who are contributing most to these tensions are by no means those whose poverty is greatest. Certainly there can be no doubt that Germany, Italy, and Japan, which are causing most trouble in the world today, have much better levels of living than many of their neighbors which at present manifest no urge to expand their borders. Indeed, in Italy and Jap…

Population of the United States, 1925 to 1975
In view of the interest in population growth in the United States and the practical value that accurate estimates of future growth would have, there is here presented an estimate of the population of the United States by ten-year periods up to 1975, the data being given separately for urban and rural populations and also by nativity groups. In other population estimates which have appeared from time to time, the census enumerations are generally …

Recent social changes include important downward shifts in true natural increase, especially for whites in the New England, Middle Atlantic, West North Central, and southern states, which leave the South as the only are producing much of a surplus in people, either white or black.

Population
From 1920 to 1930, natural increase contributed over four times as much to population growth as did net immigration. Annual gains in popultion declined about one-third from 1920 to 1930, due in part to less immigration, but chiefly to a decline of one-seventh in the number of births. The 1930-40 population increase quite likely will be as low as 9,000,000. The greater par of the increase in population from 1920 to 1930 has accrued to industrial s…
Trends in Age Composition and in Specific Birth-Rates, 1920-30
From 1920 to 1930 the proportion of the population in the older age groups increased considerably, particularly among the foreign-born. Specific birth-rates declined in most cases. The declines usually were greater in those areas having the highest rates; and within each area they varied directly with age
Population
Due primarily to an increase in net emigration, the downward trend of population growth in the United States continued in 1932. Internal movements appear to have increased the rural population more rapidly than the total population, resultingin a decline in urban numbers during the year. Continuing past trends of expectation of life and specific birth-rates in various ways, making different assumptions for net immigration, and computing the resul…

Why the Large Rise in the German Birth-Rate
The rise in the birth-rate from 1933 to 1934 was much larger in Germany than in other countries. This probably is due in part to the Nazi attempts to increase births by preventing abortion and the spreading of birth-control information, and by giving psychial and economic encouragement to larger families. The birth-rate rose in large cities before the remainder of the country, and to a greater degree. The extent of the rise in the various states …
