>Baltic countries and the region of Konigsberg, all of
which had been annexed, they immigrated massively to Germany progressively with
the retreat of the Wehrmacht. The number of those among them who could have
augmented the number of Soviet Germans is thus very minor.
Let us
therefore sum up the results of the censuses for the four nationalities
mentioned:

By calculation, the numerical values of
the Georgian and Armenian populations of 1959 are found again save 8% and those
of the Germans save 4.5%, which would be a highly satisfactory rate of
precision. In reality, the deficits thus discovered in these three cases are
certainly not due to the imprecision of the method of calculation employed, but
rather to the destructive effects of the war: loss in lives and separation of
the sexes. As one could expect, for the reasons exposed above, these effects
are distinctly less grave in the case of the Germans than in those of the two
other populations.
The case of the Jewish population of the USSR within
its borders of 1939 is different from that of the Georgians, the Armenians and
the Germans in that one must consider that between 1942 and 1945 it natural
growth was not only slowed down, but reduced to a very low level. Korherr
indicates, for example that during the first trimester of 1943, in Germany
itself, 22 births were registered as opposed to 1,113 deaths among the Jewish
population still at liberty. So therefore if one leaves completely out of
