Estimates of the population of the United States give the total as 122,000,000. The birth and the death rates are becoming balanced, and if the present restricted rate of immigration continues, the population is expected to become stationary at 170,000,000 in 1960. The population of the British Isles is 47,150,000. The skeleton of a Roman soldier which hid lain buried for about 1700 years and was recently dug up in the 40ft deep excavation on the site of the new Thames House, Millbank, has been presented to the Royal College of Surgeons.
