Abstract
THE article by A. M. C.—S. in NATURE of Dec. 29 shows convincingly how urgent are the population problems confronting the British community, and how inadequate is the knowledge at present at our disposal to solve them. These problems are by no means exclusively British, and they are much more acutely realised in many countries than here. It is therefore appropriate that, with the Editor's permission, I should remind readers of NATURE that an organisation has recently been established to deal with precisely such questions as are raised in the article, namely, the “International Union for the Scientific Investigation of Population Problems”, with its constituent bodies, the national committees which are now being set up in each of the countries represented in the Union.
