Is" Yugoslavia's alliance with Russia a double-cross, or is that part of our secretly fixed foreign policy? What of Czechoslovakia—agreed to, or a violation? Who's the violator in Greece? How far, by agreement, was Russia to go in.Italy? What of Finland—agreement or violation? These are the international issues which today threaten Americans with war. These are the issues which today prompt the huge spending of American dollars in other parts of the world to halt the spread of Russian influence. Population Growth It is estimated-that the 1950 census of the United States will show a population of about 148,000,000. 'This will "be a great growth from the population of the country in 1940, which was then 131,669,275. This prospective increase of. nearly 16,400,000 persons represents rapid growth. It is a greater increase than that recorded between 1930 and 1940, when the increases-was a little less than 9,000,000. Predictions were made some years ago that the United States was approaching-a period when its population growth «ould be considerably, less. Present prospects indicate that ie United States is still a fast growing country. Theltime when population increase may stop seems far ahead in the future." . Increasing population is a sign of prosperity. In times of depression and adversity, there are not likely to be so many marriages, and more people show hesitancy in having, children. In times of prosperity, there are more marriages, and more children are born. v Improved living.conditions, and the great advances in the cure of disease and promotion of health, have contributed to the increase of. population. The average length of life has increased, and the number of children Who die in infancy has been greatly reduced., : The idea was advanced many years ago, that world popular tion has tended to increase faster than the means of subsis- tance. This may have kbeen true in many countries in former ages, but now with the^greatly developed methods of producing food, and the application of scientific methods of agriculture, it would seem tliat the pow-er to produce the means of subsistance in. our country increases faster than the popula-, tion. The United Stated seems able to support its increasing population as fast as ii, grows. -. , ...

They also reelected nine officers and declared regular quarterly dividends on common and preferred stock. In giving his report to the stockholders, Mr. H. W. Hoover, president, stated that the company's all time high in electric vacuum cleaner sales during the past year was not due entirely to a heavy pent-up demand but also in part to the fine sales organization, which had been alerted well in advance and was prepared -with tried and true procedures which proved a very important factor. Although the company's sales and earnings in 1947 were more than double those of the previous year, Mr. Hoover declined to predict that the upward trend would continue through this year. He also told stockholders that the company's production department had built up a reserve of stocks to take care of contingencies. Factory inventories at the end of 1947 -were a good two-thirds larger than they were for December of the year before he stated. These inventories should be looked upon as a blessing in disguise, he said,, as_ they provide assuran.ce. against what the future might have iri store. Mr. Hoover said while labor and material costs have arisen considerable since the end of the war, resale prices have increased an average of- only 5.2 percent. Despite continued shortages of materials, ^ the company's purchasing department has been able to maintain an even flow of supplies, he said. Stockholders re-elected all directors. They are Mr. Hoover, F. G. Hoover, H. Earl Hoover, W. W. Steele, J. F. Hattersley, H. C. Price, R. S. Hoover, C. H. Holl, ,W. Henry Hoover, H. W. Hoover, Jr., H. E. Black, L. E. Connelly, Jr., P. W.

Proctor, gave an excellent exposition of fine young voices. Ernest Fryer, director of the church choir, was the chairman of arrangements. Francis W. Proctor, director of the choir, was assisted by Charles S. Kidder of North Canton and Bert A. Burda of Dickinson, North Dakota, student directors. Mr. Kidder, the son of Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Kidder of Portage street, is majoring in music. He is doing practice teaching in schools near Hiram. The choice of program demonstrated the group's understanding and seriousness of purpose. The program included four classical selections by the entire choir and four numbers by a small, ensemble. Part of "the"'program" was devoted ' to some works from the 18th and 17th centuries, that golden age of unaccompanied singing. Especially agreeable was the precision and flexibility which marked the performance, of this fine choir of young voices. There is apparently nothing it can not do and do well. Its tone quality is generally excellent, and it sings with ease an obvious delight in singing for its own sake. Included were several selections by Wood and Bach and English and early American folk songs and ballads. Mr. Kidder and Mr. Burda directed three religious numbers and the program closed with four light classics. James Durkin is program chaii*- man and has arrangements well Underway so the celebration -will be a gala affair.

What of Finland—agreement or violation?
These are the international issues which today threaten
Americans with war. These are the issues which today
prompt the huge spending of American dollars in other parts
of the world to halt the spread of Russian influence.
Population Growth
It is estimated-that the 1950 census of the United States
will show a population of about 148,000,000. 'This will "be a
great growth from the population of the country in 1940,
which was then 131,669,275. This prospective increase of.
nearly 16,400,000 persons represents rapid growth. It is a
greater increase than that recorded between 1930 and 1940,
when the increases-was a little less than 9,000,000.
Predictions were made some years ago that the United
States was approaching-a period when its population growth
«ould be considerably, less. Present prospects indicate that
ie United States is still a fast growing country. Theltime
when population increase may stop seems far ahead in the
future." .
Increasing population is a sign of prosperity. In times
of depression and adversity, there are not likely to be so
many marriages, and more people show hesitancy in having,
children. In times of prosperity, there are more marriages,
and more children are born. v
Improved living.conditions, and the great advances in the
cure of disease and promotion of health, have contributed to
the increase of. population. The average length of life has
increased, and the number of children Who die in infancy has
been greatly reduced., :
The idea was advanced many years ago, that world popular
tion has tended to increase faster than the means of subsis-
tance. This may have kbeen true in many countries in former
ages, but now with the^greatly developed methods of producing food, and the application of scientific methods of agriculture, it would seem tliat the pow-er to produce the means of
subsistance in. our country increases faster than the popula-,
tion. The United Stated seems able to support its increasing
population as fast as ii, grows. -. , ...

Fine Concert
Sunday evening, at the Community Christian Church, the Hiram
College a Cappelja Choir, under the
leadership of Francis W. Proctor,
gave an excellent exposition of fine
young voices. Ernest Fryer, director of the church choir, was the
chairman of arrangements.
Francis W. Proctor, director of the
choir, was assisted by Charles S.
Kidder of North Canton and Bert A.
Burda of Dickinson, North Dakota,
student directors. Mr. Kidder, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Kidder
of Portage street, is majoring in
music. He is doing practice teaching in schools near Hiram.
The choice of program demonstrated the group's understanding and
seriousness of purpose. The program included four classical selections by the entire choir and four
numbers by a small, ensemble. Part
of "the"'program" was devoted ' to
some works from the 18th and 17th
centuries, that golden age of unaccompanied singing.
Especially agreeable was the precision and flexibility which marked
the performance, of this fine choir
of young voices. There is apparently nothing it can not do and do well.
Its tone quality is generally excellent, and it sings with ease an obvious delight in singing for its own
sake.
Included were several selections
by Wood and Bach and English and
early American folk songs and ballads. Mr. Kidder and Mr. Burda directed three religious numbers and
the program closed with four light
classics.
James Durkin is program chaii*-
man and has arrangements well Underway so the celebration -will be a
gala affair. The Gilmore Family,
presenting their popular-string'en-
semble, will furnish the "dinner
music. -
