ISSUES REPORT,
v CHILD MARRIAGES
;. ., O . ?
NEW YORK: March 2-More
than 64.e,6d person liyiag in the
United States .today were "child
brides," le?a than 19 years 6f age
when , they married, or were mar
fled to brides, under that age, and
tha great majority of these, con
trary, to popular belief, are native
white of native parentage. These
are a few of the many facts rfi-
vealed isv an extended .study-": of .
child marriages :parsued in 90cr
ties iu 28 states, a preliminary
ye$ort pn which was made public
here today by the . Russell Sage
foundation.-. 4 ' . -.
This situstioa ,is due ht large
measnre to two causes, says the
report: the fact that many states
require no- better evidence of age
)han the affidavit ot one of the
candidates, for a marriage license.
and thai the legal minimum mar
riage age is 'still only 12 years
for girls and 14 - years for boys
In Jfe wTTorkINew': Jersey; Penn
sylvania, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Virglaa-t Pier id a Maryland,
Rhode IslandTennessee. Colorado
Idaho,. Maine, and Mississippi. .
.Continuing the report given ont
by the' Foundation says: ""The
seriousness of the situation ' be
comes even more impressive when
It Is known -that the foundation
classes as child .brides only those
Under 16 years of age; that.lt does
not take, account tha many mar
riages ot children over, 16, but
under 18; , and, that the total of
$67,Q00 . child brides . and hus-
bunds of child , brides is increased
each -year by thousands of addi
tional chitd marriages. Nor have
the foundation's investigators In
cluded in their estimates boys
married at 17 or younger to girls
or women older than 1 5, because
the number ot such; marriages is
relatively sxaalL
; "The study, whiah is still under
way., covers not only, the .child
marriage problem, .but-tho whole
subject of. the administration of
mp.rrlage laws. The sections . . of
the- report dealing wfth chfld mar-
riages wur he published within a
few weeks' and will immediately
be' brought to the attention of
leagues of women voters, marriage
law administrators; school auth
orities state and local legislators,
clergymen and ;, social . ; welfare
agencies throughout the country.
;"An- illustration .of ; the public
apathy in the matter, it is a; fact
that in 14 states It is legally pos
sible for a girl to marry at. an
earlier age than that at which she
Is permitted to become a wage
earner- The 'marriageable age of
girls has remained as inactive is
sue, in,-these states, .while their
educational, and . child welfare
agencies have kept the age - of
leaving school and; of entering In
. dustry a burning one.
' ; "in the matte? of child mar
riages, no group in any section pf
the United States has yet given
Berious attention to the social ef
fect of existing laws and to their
necessary, daily adaptation in the
license, off lees. It should be noted
that these facta concern the gen
eral public also, and parents more
than any- other one section of the
public."
