The article was in reply to one written by a columnist in 11 Secolo advocating a limitation of births in order to raise the quality of the race. The answer, which now it is be- lieved Mussolini wrote, was: "Quantity is the fundamental element for quality. Without num» ber there is no power, As with. out trees there are no forests, so without men there is no humanity, It is perfectly true that there were periods in history when it was advocated to limit births in order to maintain gentle figures of wo- men, but those periods were per iods in the decadence of the races of ends of peoples, Nice figures are infallible signs of passing states. History speaks to us in severe language, tragic in Babylon- fan times to the present day. "Babylon, the most civilized peo- ple of antiquity, died because of the decrease of births. The em- ire fell because of lack of men, Babylon had 2,000,000 population which was reduced to a village in which animals pastured. In Christ's time the stones of Babylon were served to construct Selencia. Later powerful Babylon was made a total desert. y Egypt An Example "Egypt was the same, Listen to the words of Papyrus of Laida, 'harvests diminish, births reduced, men became less numerous.' Wars were fought by mercenaries. ""Thebea, opulent metropolis of 100 ports, had 1,000 inhabitants in Christ's time. "The decadence of Greece was owed to deficiency in births, name- ly periods of nice womanly figures. "Turning to Rome the diminu- tion of population commenced with the reduction of births, about 164 B.C. In ten years the num- ber of citizens = under arms was diminished by 20,000. Julius Cae- sar ascertained later the fearful lack of men. During Augustus' time there were no youths. In Trojan's time all Italy barely sme- ceeded im furpishing soldiers of the guard. In Hadrian's time 700 volunteers, necessary to complete the ranks, were recruited from the provinces. After the depopulation of the fields., Rome commenced to decline. The million imhabi- tants of Augustus' time were re- duced to 200,000 when Constan- tine tramsferred the capital to Byzantium. The population con- tinued to decrease and the Roman forum and capital became pastures for cattle. The seven hills became deserts. "Who can say that Rome never would have risen again had not the great inextinguishable flame of Christianity not lighted on the banks of the Tiber. These are ter- rible lessons of history. "The first symptom of decad- ence is restriction of births. It is not true that fewer births give more vital offsprings. It is true, before all, that fewer births tend to be- come fewer. From three to two, then to one, then to the fox terrier Therefore the lesser births finish in zero. "It is false that fewer births give better physical and igtellec- tual results. The first births are the weakest. Generally the first born is a female. "In countries where there are decreasing birth rates, the females outnumber the males. Physiology tells us that the strongest follow. "The smaller human mass, namely less workmen, less farmers, less soldiers, constitute an effoc- tive, irreparable diminution of the economic and political power of a nation, If it was not so why should cries of anguish be raised in France that machines can repsace wan, This can not seriously be believed. It is yet to be seen whether this fierce mechanism will continue to infinity. Anyhow to construct ma- chines and drive them a certain amount of humanity always fis needed. If this amount is large, how much larger will be the num- ber of machines in operation? '""'Some mercantile marines are threatened because of numerical deficiency of the crews. This is owed to the maintainance of nice wonranly figures." Just try Kellogg's Corn Flakes these hot days. With milk or cream and a bit of fruit. . ...
