Abstract
THH normal series of publications dealing with the figures of the 1931 census is completed by the isstie of General Tables, a volume of some two hundred and fifty pages (London: H.M.S.O. 11s.). It contains tables giving the populations by sex of the constituent regions of England and Wales counties, boroughs, urban am] rural districts showing the ohanges that have occurred in recent interoensal periods. It also gives an analysis of the age and marital condition of the population at successive censuses during the last ninety years. Particulars are given of the birth-places and nationalities of the population in regions, boroughs and other urban areas, and comparative figures for England and Wales at successive censuses. There are also figures of population speaking the Welsh language. Much of the information given in the volume has hitherto been obtainable only by laborious extraction from separate county records.
