    THE STUDY OF POPULATION trends is an important factor in future planning. Whether the programs are economic or social, and whether they are local, state-wide, or national, they require a knowledge of the number of people in relation to a given area.

Fortunes were made from the un earned increment in values simply because of the increase in the number of people and, therefore, in the demand for land.
