The average age of the population of both Australia and New Zealand is increasing steadily because there are not enough births to keep it young. In 12 years, according to the latest circular of the Bank of New South Wales, the number of persons in Australia between 10 and 20 years of age increased by 25 per cent., but the number over 65 years of age increased by 78 per cent. The bank's expert calculates that by 1973, if the present birth and death rates continue* 31.7 per cent, of the population will be over 50 years of age compared with only 18.8 per cent, in 1933.
