older than their wives,
the marriage relationship is more
often broken by death OF the
husband than by death OF the
wife.
For the main elements OF the
population the percentages OF
married persons among those ID
wears Of age and over are as fol.
lows: Foreign-born whites, GA
for males, 59.4 for females; ma
tive whites of native parentage,
53.S and $50, respectively; native
whites of foreign or mixed par
eutage, 54.S and SIS; negroes,
SIS and SIS.
These percentages by no means
indicate the relative tendency OF
the several classes as regards
marriage. To determine that, the
G comparison should be made oy
age periods, since the proportion
married in any class is determ'
med largely by the proportion
who have reached the marrying
age. Similarly the proportion
widowed depends largely ON the
proportion past middle life. The
percentage married, both fol
males and females, is higher II
