CREDIT BUREAU of Medford Lack of Emotional iMaturitv Said Reason for Most Divorces - ' -.'

The following dis patch, the second of four, tells why married couples in Am erica wind up in the divorce courts. By BARNEY SEIBERT UPI Correspondent So you're going to get mar ried. What do' you need be sides a spouse to make the marriage last? Emotional ma turity, most experts say. Lack of emotional maturity is the real reason for most divorc-s. That is the word of many marriage counselors, lawyers, physicians, . clergy men, sociologists, psycholo gists and others whose job it is to try to patch up or scrape broken marriages. Most of them relate lack of maturity among married per sons to teen-age trips to the altar, Divorce is most apt to oc cur in the second or third year of marriage when the wife is age 21 or 22 and her husband 23 to 25, Health, Education and Welfare Department stat istics show. Veteran Judge's Advice Judge Philip B. Gilliam, of Denver, a veteran of 27 years of Domestic Relations Courts advises: " . ."Look for someone mature enough to take care of you someone who believes in him self or herself - one who can love deeply 'not only for her- Dennis the Menace 4, I HJ i I J-VV I I S7 i I 1 1 f ' VICW.' DAD FINALLY ftTTjf 0FUSTO SLEEP self, but for myself with brie ness of purpose - a gregarious type who gets along, who likes his or her parents. These are all signs of maturity." There is no " agreement among experts on an ideal age for successful marriage. Sociologist Ernest Mowrer of Northwestern University says, "studies of the relation ship between age and marri age success show that the highest proportion of success ful marriages occur between men aged 23-24 and women aged 22-23. From there on up ward there is little change but under those ages the studies show mar-rriages ar apt to be less successful." Adjustment Is Key Dr. Freda Kehm, a sociolo gist and psychiatric social worker who directs Chicago's Association for Family Liv ing, said the qhances or suc cessful marriage "depend on the facility of adjustment. At the younger ages there is less chance to adjust." Most experts feel financial problems may be a factor in unsuccessful marriage, But there is no absolute financial test to be applied before mar riage. Dr. I'ehm said, "It depends bn..the Jncome status of "the- ;-famliies from ' which they: come.' What seems Ilfce""very: little to some seems adequate to others." Religion Often Factor Religious differences can be another factor in marriage failure. Mowrer said, "where there is a marked difference in religious attitudes it may play a role in lack of adjust ment. But many who marry outside their religion are not strongly attached to their re ligious beliefs." Education is something else, he said. Mowrer has found that "the group of married couples which has had higher educa tion is less likely, to end up in the divorce court."
