Friday, November 7, 1969 Population Control Is Man's Survival Hope WASHINGTON (UPI) -A committee of the National Research Council said today the "best hope" for man's long survival as a species lies in reduction of the world's population. Other voices have warned mankind will be doomed to extinction, the fate of most earthly species, if population growth is not checked soon. But the research council committee said the population3.5 billion--already is to great to preserve man comfortably on a planet worth inhabiting. By 2070, in the absence of various "controlling factors," there will be 30 billion people in the world.

From the standpoint of food alone, this would represent" the earth's "ultimate carrying capacity" -a level the committee said, of "chronic near-starvation for the great majority." At the rate man's population and needs are rising, the committee said, irreplaceable natural resources simply are not sufficient to meet future demand. Indeed, many substances vital for industrial society are running out. These include mercury, tin, tungsten, and helium. Known reserves of such materials- "twill be nearly exhausted by, the end of this century or early in the next." Oil and gas reserves, laid down over hundreds of millions of years in the earth's geologic past, are runn.ng out, and nuclear power at the moment offers no permanent answer to in pending power shortages. Moreover, said the committee, "'The popular belief that the oceans contain inexhaustible mineral wealth and that aquatic food products will provide a long-range solution to the nutrition problem is also open to serious question." The resources committee was headed by Prof.

Burma, China Peace Pledge Broken; Fighting Breaks Out Rangoon (UPI) -Former Burmese Premier Nu stood with Communist China's Mao Tse-tung before Peking's Gate of Heavenly Peace in 1960 and proclaimed lasting friendship. Now the Burmese government reports fighting recently on China's border. Premier Ne Win told the Burmese Socialist party Thursday fighting with "'Communist forces" had left 133 Burmese troops dead, 250 wounded and 42 missing.

Although Win did not identify the "Communist forces" as Chinese it was clear he meant Chinese Communist troops as well as the Burmese guerrillas long trained and armed by the Chinese. Border skirmishes between Chinese Communist soldiers and Burmese forces have been going on in, no: thern Burma since mid-1967 but have gotten BRONZED FOOTDRAGGER AWARD will be presented to leaders of the Democratic-controlled 91st Congress "who show unusual talents in dragging feet on badly legislation."

Although the 1970 fiscal four months old, Congress has acted on only 2 out of 13 appropriation bills and a few other measures of significance.

Noisy Mob Minichiello, his wife Maria and daughter Anna, 18, walked particularly intense since January. Win made it clear at least eight of the border clashes involved heavy fighting and others included lighter action.

Despite the fighting, Win told the political meeting he was determined to maintain friendly relations with all countries, including China. Nu and Mao in 1960 celebrated the signing of a treaty they said had settled a border dispute dating back to 1886. They signed a 10-year nonaggression pact. The deterioration in began June 26, 1967 when Burmese students attacked Chinese students who insisted on wearing Mso Tse-tung badges outlawed by the government. The fighting escalated to rioting in 56 Burmese towns and cities.
