One of the most ominous and discreditable symptoms of the want of candour in present-day sociology is the deliberate neglect of the population question. It is or should be transparently clear that if the State is resolved, on humanitarian grounds, to inhibit the operation of natural selection, some rational regulation of population, both as regards quantity and quality, is imperatively necessary. There is no self-acting adjustment, apart from starvation, of numbers to the means of subsistence. If all natural checks are removed, a population in advance of the optimum number will be produced, and maintained at the cost of a reduction in the standard of living. When this pressure begins to be felt, that section of the population which is capable of reflection, and which has a standard of living which may be lost, will voluntarily restrict its numbers, even to the point of failing to replace deaths by an equivalent number of new births; while the underworld, which always exists in every civilised society the failures and misfits and derelicts, moral and physical will exercise no restraint, and will be a constantly increasing drain upon the national resources. The population will thus be recruited, in a very undue proportion, by those strata of society which do not possess the qualities of useful citizens. The importance of the problem would seem to be sufficiently obvious. But politicians know that the subject is unpopular. The unborn have no votes. Employers like a surplus of labour, which can be drawn upon when trade is good. Militarists want as much food for powder as they can get. Revolutionists instinctively oppose any real remedy for social evils; they know that every unwanted child is a potential insurgent. All three can appeal to a quasi-religious prejudice, resting apparently on the ancient theory of natural rights, which were supposed to include the right of unlimited procreation. This objection is now chiefly urged by celibate or childless priests; but it is held with such fanatical vehemence that the fear of losing the votes which they control is a welcome excuse for the baser sort of politician to shelve the subject as inopportune. The Socialist calculation is probably erroneous; for experience has shown that it is aspiration, not desperation, that makes revolutions. my own Title "" State and overpopulation"" or ""survival of the fittest"" "" Ignoring population control query is a omen in honest sociology. state alone without natural selection phenomena cannot maintain a healthy circle of life, where poor and middle class will continue labor phenomena and rich would practice birth-control. Thus viscous cycle continues for natural resources. The politicians, the corporations and the army are against population-control as they want votes , labour and fighters to serve their interest. For this they believe on the same unchecked pro-creation phenomena as man's natural right . Hodge-podge calculations are made by socialists because from the yore population has proved to be a stimulus behind REVOLUTIONS ""

No offence but your summary (precis) does not quite say what the article concluded! please take a look at the article again and proof read your summary/precis.
I am saying it out loud only because i feel criticism at this point would be a lot better than bragging about how well we have written something. I hope you would understand. GOOD LUCK and happy writing!

read the lines from original paragraph
"Fortunately, however, there is in human nature a compensating passion, namely that of admiration. Whoever wishes to increase human happiness must wish to increase admiration and to diminish envy." and "But real life is never so logical as this. Merely to realize the causes of one’s own envious feeling is to take a long step towards curing them." think what the writer wants to deliver |

"Human nature is plagued by envious feelings of individuals towards others. An envious person does not feel contended with what he has and ruins the happiness in his own life while wishing, acting in any way which could be harmful for people he feels envious about. Even saints are not free from envious feelings. On the other hand, admiration is a trait of human nature which helps to diminsh the effects of envy. While the ultimate cure to envy is hapiness, finding out the root cause of these feelings is the first step."
