There are 100 women 10 every 81
men in the District of Columbia All
OF which gives Bashfui John a little
better chance to win out, He has
iess composition here than in any
other part OF the country.
This population ratio in the Dis
srict is without equal In any Of the
States in the country. In fact, in all
but one or two States there are more
men than women.
Massachusetts is one of the most
notable exceptions, the ratio being
96.3 men to every 100 women.
The total population of the Dis
trict for 1920 is given by the Bureau
of Census as 437,57l. the number OF
women being 234.02s for 203,o43 men.
The State which is most decidedly
in need of more women 10 Nevada,
where there are 1854 men to tevery
100 women, leaving every third man
in the State without a chance.
In Maryland. Virginia and West
Virginia, there are more men than
women. the ratio being 1913. 104
and 1889
In the country an a whole there
are 104 mem to every 100 women.
The preponderance OF males has been
the rule at every census In the his
tory of the country, this condition
being due, according to the census
bureau. to the fact that the total
population includes q considerable
proportion OF foreign born. about IS
per cent in 1920. among whom males
