MEDIAN AGE OF
Wounded in Bataan Battle
National Median 29 Years
Increase Due Lower Birth,
Death Rates In State.
Washington, April 14.-
The median age of the popula
tion of Washington and Oregon
is much older than the national
median, the Bureau of Census
reported today. Studio of the
last census showed the national
median age was 29 years on
April 1, 1940 (an Increase of 2V4
years since 1930) and ranged
.ee. from 22.2 years in South Caro-
W lina to 33 years in California,
In Oregon it was 32.4 years
second highest in the nation; in
Washington it was 32.2 third
highest in the nation and
equalled only by New York,
(The median age is that age
which divides the population in
to two equal age groups one
half being older and one half
younger than the median. Ord-
tnarily. it is a year or two lower
than the arithmetical average of
the ages of the population.)
Advance Explained
"The advance in the median
.-age", the report stated, "results
chiefly from lower birth rates
and lower death rates in the
past decade. Another factor has
been the practical cessation of
Immigration which has permit
ted the foreign-born population
a in the U. S. to grow older with
W out replacement by new and
younger Immigrants.
"The foreign-born white popu-
lation, with a median-age of 51
years ,was the oldest of the race
nativity groups. It was also
oldest in 1930, as well as being
the group with the greatest in
crease 7.1 years in median
age since 1930.
"The next oldest group, the
native whites, with a median
age of 26.9 years in 1940, had a
median 3.2 years higher than in
1930. Only in this native white
croup were females older, on
the average, than males their
median being 27.1 to 26.7 years
for native white males. (Na
' tionally, the median for all
males was 29.1; for females 29.)
"The urban population median
age was 31 years; averaging 3.3
years older than the rural non
farm population, which, in turn
O averaged 3.3 years older than
the rural farm population. Even
though the median age of the
rural farm population (24.4

years from 1930, or more than
that of either of the other two
groups."
