u Calling All Males! We're Losing Sex War To Secretly. Calculating Females Br H. D. QUIGG United Presi Correspondent ' New York (U P Males of America, awake' If that's pos sible. We're losing the sex war: We're becoming the im.derdogs of American civilization. The bat'ie of men against women his erupted out of the cold war stage. A flood of hot fiffures from the Census Bureau shows how the females of this country have built . up their dread forces secretly and calcu latingly since 1310. And v have gone along, blithely, complacently, living our smug little lives, ignoring the voices of warning, until sud denly mriff dramatically, they have struck. The awful truth is this: Th? Census Bureau says there are now 1.381.000 more women than men in this countrv. Their build up began ip 1910, when there were 106 men for every 100 women. Steadily they aue mcnted their forces, increased their stockpiles until, in 1940, there were only 100.7 men for every 100 women. Fiaht Back In 1950. they spumed and passed us by 600.000. It sermed like a trivial figure and there were those who laughed lightly and avowed that a good cigar's a smoke. Well, all that's behind lis now. and our work is cut out. We must fight back. A sex that can outstrip us by , show the gravity, the enormity. 1 13 million in six years is of the threat. And look at other monstrous crafty. You know iieias. omen own a monopoly what they're after? Guys and j on style. They admittedly sing dols. That's dols.. with one "L Stands for $. The female army has debouch ed upon the financial plain. In 1952. there were 3.230.000 wom en shareholders of stock in pub lic corporations for 49.8 per cent of the total. The latest New York Stock Exchange census shows they've won: right now there are 4.455,000 female share holders 51.6 per cent of the shareholder total. And who do you think are the largest single occupation-group of stockholders? Housewives. 34 2 per cent. There have been all kinds of estimates that women own more of the wealth of the United States than men. Most financial experts say any percentage would be a guess. But one put it this way: Only One Means "It depends on what you mean by 'own.' If you use the word in the sense of own-and-control, then it's women by 100 per cent." What did he mean? "Why, if you're married, your wife controls all your wealth, in the practical sense. I'm a mar ried man with three kids, and I know who controls my assets." It's rays of light like that that DON'T DELAY-ORDER TODAY Your Name Imprinted Christmas Cards On The Balcony At t l4Arrk books gifts records T higher, sew better, look prettier, talk on the phone longer, change their minds faster, and live longer. And they carry more weight. Proportionately, that is on their bones. But maybe that's only a biased male viewpoint. Take the wealth factor, the vote factor. What you got before long?

Representatives of Oregon and California signed the Klamath River Basin Compact Saturday and sent it to the legislatures of the two states for ratification. The compact, designed to pro mote development and proper use of water resources in the Upper Klamath Basin, also needs approval of Congress before it becomes effective. The compact, which sets up a system of priority for water use, covers all land draining into the Klamath River above the point where it crosses the Cali fornia-Oregon border near Coco Lake in Siskiyou County, Calif, Less than two million acre feet of water about 15 per cent of the entire runoff of the Klamath is affected by the compact. Domestic water users are giv en first priority under the con tract, followed by irrigation, rec reation, including fish and wild life, industrial, hydroelectric and other uses. Export of water from the up per basin is prohibited with one exception, in Oregon, but the compact provides for diversion between the two states within limits of the basin boundaries.
