IS THERE A HUSBAND FAMINE? § | Copyright, 188, by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York World). Dearth of Weddings Charged to Low Wages, And the Girls and Mothers Are Blamed Too pemratetirtete clad. ta ictee sts DT Ie “If a Fellow Gets a Raise of Only a Dollar When He Gets Married and It Took All of His Pay to Live On While Single, Can He Keep a Wife on the Extra Dollar?’’ Aska “J. G. D.” By Nixola Greeley-Smith. Yos, there is « husband famine. And it is becoming momently more) and more acute. Young women and employers of men are to blame. At least, so one plausible young bachelor informs us. Another bachelor lays|- the blame for the matrimonial pante at the door of parents, mothers par- ticularly, etil into the children’s minds that she wants them to marry s0 théy will not have to work as she and their father worked?” he inqutres, “tmetead of teaching them to marry according to the dictates of their hearte as long as their choice is acceptable from « moral stand- point?” The young man who blames the employer says that if a bachelor in- forma the arbiter of his salary that he is about to be married ‘he is more apt to receive » grow! than a raise, though sometimes. the . annaunce- ments brings forth an extra dollar srudgingly bestowed. How do these apologies for the single life impress the young wom- en? To me it does not seem that the employer is under any moral obliga- tion to provide his male employees with dowers—at any rate, not so-long as we continue to live under a competitive system. Neither can I see the objecting parent as a very serious factor in the husband famine. The Younger generation does not take its paronts very seriously—not half se- rously enough—even in such relatively trivial matters as dress and man- ners. And the parent who ventures to interfere in the matrimonial choice of his offspring is as courageous as he is exceptional. “8 we THUS MH EMPLOVPR WE ob =—GONG T GET MARMED ME GETS @ GROW, wsTeaD OF “ae ‘s "3 GD : Undoubtedly many of our young men and womon are exposed to mean and petty ideals from the firat hour when as children mates viewed from the parental stand- point are more desirable than others.

In my opin- fon, there are others who should ehare some of the responsibility, namely, the parents, and especially the mothers, who are the greatest objectors, as usually the father is more or less submissive to the views of the mother on the subject of mar- triage. Does not the mother instil in- to the children's mind that she wants them to marry so they will not have to work as their father and she did, inetead of teaching them to marry accomling to the dictates of thelr heart, as long as the chiice ts ac- ceptable from the moral standpoint?
