[Guizhou planned parenthood].

Since launching planned parenthood work in 1975 in Guizhou, the birth rate has begun to decrease each year. In the past 6 years, 1.66 million births were prevented. Some 8 years ago, the natural population growth rate in the province was as high as 31/1000. According to statistics, in 1980, of the 87 counties, municipalities and districts in the province, 66 had reduced the natural population growth rate from that of 1979, including 25 which had reduced the rate to 5/1000. During the same period, the natural population growth rate in Guiyang Municipality was reduced to 4.3/1000, while in Zunyi Prefecture, the rate was reduced from 14/1000 in 1979 to 10.9/1000. The population in this prefecture accounted for 1/4 of the total population in the province.

[Guizhou planned parenthood circular].

The Guizhou Provincial CCP Committee and the provinical people's government recently issued a circular on launching mass inspection of planned parenthood work throughout the province in late June. The inspection will look at whether or not the masses have been mobilized to pay serious attention to planned parenthood work, whether or not such education has been launched, what kind of concrete measures have been adopted, and what kind of concrete experiences have been learned. It will also include the implementation of birth control measures, the resolute prohibition on having a 3rd child, and the promotion of having only 1 child/couple. The circular urged the departments at all levels to strengthen their leadership over planned parenthood work, deepen investigation and study, continuously study the new situation and solve the new problems.

[Guizhou County censured for poor planned parenthood work].

According to Guizhou Ribao, Zhijin County has done a very poor job of planned parenthood work. The county's natural population growth rate in the more than 10 years before the gang of 4 were smashed was over 30/1000. The work was grasped in 1977, and the growth rate that year fell to 18.1/1000. However the rate rose again to 26.64/1000 in 1979, 120% more than the planned target. The general office of the Guizhou Provinical CCP Committee has issued a circular criticizing the county's renewed high population growth in 1979. The situation remains very unsatisfactory this year. Why are the planned parenthood problems so serious in this county? The main reason is that the county CCP committee has failed to gain a sufficient understanding of the importance of the work, and has not grasped it as a major affair. For a long time the committee has gone no further than issuing general calls. Many leading cadres do not like planned parenthood. Many leading cadres in the provincial organs have taken the lead in producing an excessive number of children. A deputy secretary of the county CCP committee who already had 4 children had a 5th last year. The wife of the director of the county CCP committee's organization department works in the county planned parenthood office. She had her 5th child in 1977. The director of the Public Health Bureau, who already had 7 children, remarried last year and has now produced an 8th. In addition, the county CCP committee has failed to commend and reward certain people who have practiced planned parenthood. The county has not issued a single 1 child pledge certificate. On the contrary, cadres who have an excess number of children have actually been promoted. The problems in planned parenthood work in Zhijin County have yet to be solved. It is hoped that the county CCP committee and the departments concerned will rapidly organize forces and take decisive action to put things right and do a good job of planned parenthood work.
