Soviet boy thinks of marriage and then of tlie housing thortage. For mar " riage often is contingent on whether the couple will have a place to live. The bearing that housing ac commodations have on Ivan and Olga's courtship showed in a survey by the Soviet Academy of Sciences of 500 young couples in the Leningrad area. Results were reported at headquarters here of Radio Liberty, which uncovered the poll in its regular research of Soviet publications and broad casts. The Soviet publication which reported tlie poll head, lined it, "Love and Living Space. Data on Soviet Mar ' riage." The survey showed that elope ments were a rarity and that four out of five couples obtained parental consent before taking marriage vows, apparently In part because Ivan and Olga often planned to live either with the parents of the bride groom or the brulc. Radio Liberty said that to the question, "where do you intend to live after your mar riage?" 20 per cent of the couples said tlicy would slay with the bridegroom's parents; 16 per cent with those of the bride's. Another 10 per cent said "we hope to get a new apartment of our own." And seven per cent said tliey would live In an apartment the bride already had; an equal number in an apartment the bridegroom already had. One of every six couples said they planned to take a room, indicating that apartments are scarce in Soviet land. The poll, conducted In four varied communities of the Leningrad district, produced in formation also on what the couples thought were ingredi ents of a happy marriage and how they met. - Three of every four couples said they considered "the main conditions for a durable and happy marriage" to be "love, common views, faith, sincerity and friendship." Thirteen per cent gave their vote to "equality and respect." Four per cent identified "love and living space." And the re mainder listed such qualities as "love and material well-being, lots of children and a realistic view towards life." How did the couples meet? Twenty-seven per cent said at dances, theaters and skating rinks. Another 20 per cent became acquainted at work, 18 per cent met In school, and one out of every 10 couples said they had known each other since child hood. Other introductions came at house parties, during summer vacations, through their parents, on trains, in hospitals or in libraries. In nearly one of every four marriages, tlie wife was older than the husband. A few had as many as 10 years seniority. Radio Liberty doesn't usually go in for boy-meets-girl stories. Its research staff of Soviet ex perts, including 200 ex-Soviet citizens, concentrate on the number one job of reporting news denied Russian citizens within their own borders. Radio Liberty, privately sup ported through the American Committee for Liberation, broadcasts around the clock from 17 transmitters in West Germany, Spain and Formosa, in 17 languages spoken within the borders of the USSR. The organization's honorary chairmen include Herbert Hoover, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman. V WE HAVE THE BEST DRESSED TURKEYS IN TOWN!
