Southern Pacific
Reduces Debt
Southern Pacific company
has reduced its debt, exclusive
of change: in icrial equipment
obligations, by more than $100,
000,000, or more than 25 per
cent, since early 1040, President
A. T. Mercler said in announc
ing plans for refunding a por
tion of the non-callable Central
Pacific Railway company first
refunding mortgage bonds that
will mature August 1, 1040,
Reduction of the funded debt
since 1040 is principally respon
sible, it was pointed out, for
reducing annual fixed eharges
by more than $7,300,000, or by
more than 23 per cent below
the 1030 level.

Go West, Young Woman
If You Want to Find a Man
By FRANCIS J, KELLY
Washington, Oct. is tPi
The census bureau gave out to
day with some husband-hunting
figures as disconcerting to the
thoughful bobby sox girl as a
migraine headache to a hungry
wood pecker.
There are only about 1.700.000
unmarried men between the ages
of 20 and 34 years in civilian
life today and grab a firm
brace on your hope chest some
4,000,000 unmarried women In
the same age group.
That Is only 425-thousandths
of a man apiece, if all the women
have matrimony on their minds,
and the population prcdicters
have no reason to suspect that
many of them don't.
For the first time In history,
this erstwhile he-man republic
has a feminine majority. Mar
ried and single, civilian and sol
dier, the bureau estimates there
arc 600,000 more women over
21 than there arc men.
The bureau figures the war
boom in marriages is about over,
until the boys come home. Then,
if the trend of World War 1 re
peats itself, look for a sharp
spurt in the orange blossom and
bridal veil trade. The marriage
rate of 10.5 per thousand in 1030
marched up to 13.1 in 1042, but
slumped to 11.8 last year.
The bureau's latest figures
show the median age of bride-
I To New Mothers i
Give yovr bob quick reJitf
from (iSe fivy ilthma of
r JU CAf Orr lueae J
grooms was 24.8 years, or brides
21.8. Statistically, that means
that when Johnny comes march
ing home he's ant to fall for the
little babe down the street rather
than one of his former high
school classmates.
For the girls who want to do
something constructive about
getting a husband, the charts
point toward the west rather
than the east, and to the small
towns rather than the cities.
Here in Washington, for in
stance, the competition is pretty
rugged with only 91.9 men for
every 100 women. In New York
the ratio is more favorable
100,4 per 100 but conditions
Improve rapidly os a girl goes
west.
Chicago has a rate of 102.7 to
100; Detroit 110.1, Oklahoma
City 102.3 and Sacramento 113.3
men per 100 women. New Eng
land averages 97 men for each
1UU women, compared with 11.4
in Idaho, 114.8 in Montana, 118.7
in Wyoming and 125.4 in Ne
vada. For girls really fearful of
withering on the matrimonial
vine, there's always Alaska,
where the men outnumber the
women 145.7 to 100.

Merchants Cautioned
Against Bad Checks
With the coming of fall, us
ually comes bad check season In
Klamath county and merchants
are warned by the district attor
ney and sheriff's offices to be
particularly cautious in cashing
checks.
Bad check writing, always In
existence, seems to increase in
the autumn. District Attorney L.
Orth Siscmore laid.
In the last six months of 1943.
according to the records, 51 bad
checks were brought to the at-1
tention of authorities here.
Amount on the checks on file are
anywhere from $1 to J1425.
