WHITE RACES DOOMED
EVILS OF BIRTH CONTROL,
AN ARRESTING ARTICLE.
(United Press Association.)
(By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, April 10. (Received April 11, at 10 p.m.) The fact that the whites are at present in a process of being utterly swamped by the coloured races is the keynote of an arresting article by Sir Chiozza Money, in the Evening Standard. He instances the amazing low level of birthrates in Europe as an outcome of birth control, the tide of which it is useless to endeavour to stem. He also instances France building up a coloured army in Africa and the American ban on whites, while building up large black populations in industrial towns.
In face of these facts it is not difficult to say that th e whites in Europe will be forced eventually to import coloured labour. The world’s whites are only one in three, and we must therefore anticipate the certainty that the whites will be compelled to lay down the leadership of the world. European emigration will entirely cease, the Tndustry and the wealth of Europe will contract, and the British Empire will necessarily dissolve, because there will be insufficient whites to maintain it.
As far as the dominions are concerned, they must remember that there were only 18,000,000 whites outside the United Kingdom. The dominion birth rate is falling, and soon white emigration will entirely cease with the drying up of the European population. Hence, it is hopeless to look for much larger populations in Australia and New Zealand. In South Africa there are 8.500,000 blacks and 1,500,000 whites. The birth rate of America is falling and will continue to fall. It will be unnecessary to restrict the European whites because none will be available.
The article concludes: “It used to be said that the coloured races would conquer the whites in a fearful carnage. Such barbarism is entirely unnecessary, as the same end is being achieved bloodlessly by the will of the whites themselves, who hail childlessness as the shortest way out to better times. The only hope of the whites is to pass on birth control to the coloured races.—Australian Press Association.
