Anderson criticizes Carter's position on Israeli settlements JERUSALEM (-AP)-Independent presidential candidate John Anderson criticized the Carter administration's position on West Bank settlements yesterday, and said the president should strengthen the U.S. naval presence in the Persian Gulf area. In a speech delivered at a dinner hosted by Justice' Minister Shmuel Tamir, Anderson 'continued the criticism he began Tuesday of President Carter's stance on Israeli settlements in occupied Arab territories. AT A NEWS conference before the dinner, Anderson also called on Mary Crisp, who will not seek re-election as co-chairman of the Republican National Committee, to join his in- dependent presidential campaign. Crisp recently criticized Republican presidential candidate Ronald Reagan on women's rights issues and praised Anderson for his independent bid for the presidency. "The United States is in error when it elevates settlements to the status of being the major obstacle to the suc- cess of the autonomy talks," Anderson said. Anderson was referring to talks bet- Dail Classifieds (Continued from Page 12) SUBLET-OWN ROOM in beautiful 6-bedroom house. Fall option.

ALTHOUGH ANDERSON did not take a firm position on the settlement issue, .he implied his own criticism Tuesday when he told reporters that he felt many Americans were concerned that "any settlement activity be strictly limited to the security of Israel." In his speech last night, Anderson also urged a strengthening of the U.S. naval presence in the Persian Gulf area "to underscore . . . that the world economy must be assured against a cataclysm that may arise from hostile activity in this area." The problem of the Middle East "would appear less severe if the West were less dependent on the Persian Gulf for much of its oil," he added. ANDERSON CALLED Crisp a "dedicated fighter for women's rights," and said he was not surprised that she would not try to continue as co- chairman of the GOP Nationa'l Commpit- tee.

World population grows as rate Of increase slows WASHINGTON (AP)-The world population continues to grow, especially in Africa, although the global rate of growth has slowed in the last five-year period, the U.S. Census Buresu reported yesterday. Worldwide, the report states, "the trend in the global population growth rate-has been generally downward in recent years, the growth rate having declined from about 2.1 per cent in 1965- 70 to 1.7 per cent in 1975-79." DURING THE SAME period, the growth rate for Africa increased from 2.5 per cent to 2.9 per cent, highest in the world, the report disclosed. By comparison, Latin America had a 2.4 per cent growth rate in the 1975-79 period, while the rate was 1.9 per cent in Asia, 1.1 per cent in Oceania, 0.8 per cent in North America and 0.6 per cent in Europe. Oceania includes Australia and islands in the South Pacific. Earlier, in 1965-70, the growth rate in Latin America was 2.7 per cent; that of Asia was 2.5 per cent; Oceania, 2 per cent; North America, 1.1 per cent; and Europe, 0.8 percent. The report notes that, while population growth rates have declined in most parts of the world, the absolute number of people being added yearly to the world's total has not declined. That is because the lower growth rate is ap- plied to an ever-larger base population. THE REPORT FOCUSES on the 87 countries with populations of five million or more. These countries con- tain 97 per cent of the world's population. The world's most populous nation, the report finds, is mainland China with more than one billion people. Howbver, the authors stress there are still uncer- tainties about the quality and accuracy of population information from China. India was ranked second with 667 million. The Soviet Union was third with 263 million followed by the United States at 221 million and Indonesia at 148 million. The continued high growth rate in Africa is occuring "primarily because birthrates are not declining in Africa as they are in other places. Because the birthrates are more or less steady and death rates are declining, that means an increase in the population growth rate," explained Ellen Jamison, chief of the bureau's International Demographic Analysis Branch. She noted that "in many places in Latin America and Asia there is much wider use of family planning methods than in Africa." "Also, in some African countries, fer- tility will increase before it decreases because of improving health con- ditions," Jamison added.
