Married People Live Longer, Statistics Show
BRUNETTE BOMBSHELL Sizzling Rita Moreno shows why
she was selected to play the leading role in "Untamed." Even
her set chair carries a warning of the fiery Latin actress' abilities.
By DKM8 SMITH
I'ulted I'reiw Science Editor
NEW YORK (UP) -The social
scientists tell you that if you want
to live a long time you must get
married and stay married.
There's no question about It
Married people live longer than
single people; and people who
were once married live longer Hum
oeoole who were never married.
The public health service's na
tional office of vital statistics has
proven this to be a fact. But the
social scientists tell you that it
wasn't in need of any proof, that
it should be as evident as the nose
on your "ace.
The big reason why this is so is
that there are no pent-up people
amon? married people, assuming.
tliat is, that they "communicate"
with one another, and if they don't, were just catching up with them
POLK TAX
AUSTIN. Tex. (UP) The Rev
enue and Taxation Committee of
the Texas House of Representa
tives scheduled public hearings to
'ay on Rep. T. W. (Buckshot)
' ane's bill to tax Texas telephone
poles 50 cents each.
Lane said he didn't know how
much money his bill would raise
but said Texas is hard-pressed for
the new tax revenue and "there
are jillions of telephone poles in
Texas."
they don't stay married.
No Pent I'p Emotion
Perhaps a husband and his wife
have learned disrespect for one
another. This makes them prone
to tell one another off, each is
happy to explain why the other's
faults are extremely irritating.
So each has a sounding board.
Neither is nent uo, both get their
troubles off their chests. But if
they're happily married, each has
i weeping wall and a confessional
"ind a builder-upner, all combined
m one person. Each has an outlet
with a guaranteed non-stick valve.
But whether married people like
me another or not, thy're assured
if excellent attention from their
nates. The wife who thinks her
husband is a jerk and tells him so
'eeds and cares for him with zeal
because she wouldn't want to have
mistreatment of him on her con
science, the social scientists say.
Concern Over Wife
And the husband who tells IiIf
vife she's a shrew and a nag, also
'alls the doctor for her at the
slightest excuse because, feeling
s he does, his conscience tells
Vim tliat he has to give constant
roof that he doesn't wish her ill.
All this scientific "evaluation"
:ame to this reporter from social
scientists who thought statistics
However, the statistics of the na-
ional office of vital statistics in
dicated that not being pent-up
worked better for men than lor
women.
Basing his figures on the 1950
census and mortality rates for
1949, 1950, and 1951, statistician
Dewey S h u r 1 1 e f f showed tliat
deaths among bachelors were al
most two-thirds greater than
among husbands. Among divorced
men and widowers, the rate was
half again more.
But spinster mortality was a
fourth again higher than that of
wives; the mortality of widows and
divorcees was half again higher.
Shurtlcff suggested no reason for
tliis difference between the sexes.

We are glad that our big new Ferndale Mobil
gas Refinery is in operation, ready to furnish
the people of the Northwest with products of
highest quality, made right here in the area
and able to insure quick availability under
all conditions of peace or war. We are glad
we have been able to put more people to
work. We are thinking of not only our
employees but of the people in stores, in
b;inks, in transportation, with the utility com
panies and in other businesses who find that
there is more to do and more profit to be
shared when a new industry is established.
We will be able to supply products made
in the Northwest for people of the Northwest
products to drive their automobiles, heat
their homes, power their tractors, cook their
meals and turn the wheels of their industries.
We have been made welcome, very wel
come, by the people who have taken us in as
their new neighbors.
Since our new plant embraces the latest,
most modern techniques in petroleum refin
ing, we are making available to interested
science and industrial economics study
groups, guided tours through our facilities.
Further information can be obtained from
Mr. Curtis G. Cortelyou, manager of the
Ferndale Mobilgas Refinery.
It's a wonderful feeling to be a part of this
vigorous, growing country and we pledge
our best efforts toward making a worthy con
tribution to a continued expansion of its
economy in the years to come.
