Housing Shortage Big Factor In Soviet Marriage
By GAY PAtXLEY
UPI Women's Editor
NEW YORK (UPI) - Soviet
boy meets fiirl. 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.
