In the summer of 1974, there were approximately
three and one-half billion people° Someÿhere
between then and the year 2000, we will most
likely double our populationÿ There will
probably be about seven billion people°
So the world got togetherÿ for the first
time ever, to view with alarmÿ or to charge
that those who speak of a population explosion
are viewing with false alarmÿ to aSmit that
they hav;e a serious problem] or to state that
the most serious problem they have was a lack
of people° But they did meet, and they did
talk about it ÿoo

a million a month° However serious her

Government predicts her population will more

find themselves in much the same predicemento
They ÿ together with China and Japan --
account for some two-thirds of the present

You are now watching a Japanese television

you may very well be watching it on a
Japanese television set. Many of the people
who mszle the commercial, the automobile and
the television set are probably out of a job.
For by October 1974, the Japanese unemployment
rate of less than one per cent had already
grown to more than 3 per cent .....
..Inflation had risen to 23 per cent, and
their much-respected Vice-Minister of
International Trade and Industry was predictinj
an imminent full scale depression.
Japan's lesson: a very high standard of
living just as in the rest of the developed
world has brought her people to near zero
population growth° Japan' s future: somehow
she will cope with her two major sets of
problems.
