The United States may be a stronger. healthier. happier Nation today with a population of 140.000.000 than it will be when It reaches 200.000.000. Studies by P. K. Whelpton of the Scripps Foundation for Population Research indicates that a fixed 100.000.000 people might be even better for us. It would mean more and better clothes. housing. Jobs. medical care. education. beefsteak. and milk for everybody. Of course. Mr. President. the population of the United States will increase. our population is growing. But we cannot overlook the fact that we have today a problem on our own hands. This is not the country of 50 years ago. when unrestricted immigration to the United States could be absorbed.
