...). These figures somewhat agree with the calculations of Stolnitz (1968). His values for 1968 are .81 and 1.93 millions corresponding to "low birth pre- vention-high birth rate" and "high birth prevention-low birth rate" assumptions respectively. Three of the figures cited earlier (.81, .98, 1.15) fall within...

... reveals a high regional variation in birth rate: from 20 per 1,000 (Bas Uele) to 60 per 1,000 (Kivu). This variation is consistent with the variation in sterility level as evidenced by the proportion of women never having had a live birth. The proportion of childlessness varies from 5 percent (Kivu...

On the other hand, when mortality is low, as in the developed nations, the desired number of births drops precipitously, and the rate of population increase is very low. In the less developed nations, reductions in desired family size may...

Thus the crude birth rate of the urbanized Negro population in 1958 was as high as the crude birth rate of the primarily rural Negro population of the early twenties. The crude birth rate has declined in the last few years, but com- paring...
