And the chinese Hierarchy docs not really believe in limit i n g population by artificial Means.

But peking knows that world opinion frowns upon an admittedly poor country s allowing excessive population increase. The larger the population the More it will produce Chi lung said virtually ignoring almost a Century of technological Advance.

Tiie peking rationale in Stead explained that expand ing China s filled area presently no More than 10 per cent of the country s total area would vastly increase food production. And More tillers for the newly cultivated areas Are the key he implied to orca scr production.
