dc.description.abstract | I make no apology for the inaccuracies and discrepancies found in
the statistics presented later on; prolonged research and much
correspondence would have been necessary to produce statistics on
an absolutely comparative basis; the object of this paper is qualitative
rather than qualitative, so though the figures, except in one or
two cases, may only be approximately accurate, and though the
derived figures have been obtained with only slide rule accurracy,
the general trend of events is sufficiently well indicated. The world
statistics indeed must be the roughest of rough estimates,
distinguished as may have been the compilers. | en |
