Britain sees birth rate drop amid birth control, rents, and salaries
London reports a sharp fall in births in 1922, the Registrar General says. Fewer babies were born than in any year on record, with the death rate at 12.4 per 1000 and infant mortality also at a low. The decline is tied to rises in taxation, rents, and the costs faced by landlords and servants, alongside the spread of birth control.
