riage problem, but the whole sub ject of the administration of mar riage laws. The sections of the re- port dealing with child marriages will be published within flow weeks and will immediately be brought to the attention of leagues of women voters, marriage law ad- ministrators, school authorities, state and local legislators, clergy mon. and social welfare agencies throughout the country.
 As an illustration of the public apathy in tho matter 1t is fact that in IA states it is legally pos sibe for a girl to marry at an earlier age than that at which she is permitted to become a wage earner. The marriageabe age of girls has remained an inactive issue in these states, while their educa- tional and child welfare agencies have kept the age of leaving school and of entering industry burning one,
 Tn the matter Of child mar riages, no group in any section Of the United States has yet given serious attention to the social ef- feet of existing laws and to their necessarily daily adaptation in the license offices It should be noted that these facts concern the general public also, and parents more than any other one section of the pub lie"

CARES LITTLE FOR
 TITLED PARSONAGE
Austrian KnighthOodS and Deco
 rationS Have Lost Dignity

Melbourne, March 1O.-Australia is emphasizing its democracy; thc list of New Year honors was the shortest on record.
 knighthoOds and other imperial istic decorations have lost much of their significance and dignity here because Of the scandals attached 10 their bestowal. Certain wealthy political workers are still prepared to pay the price to become knights, and the British government is quite willing to grant the appointments, but the Australian state govern ments. wisely gauging public feel ing, has practically vetoed the wholesale distribution of these gifts.
 The Labor governments in Tas- mania, Western Australia. Queens land and South Australia have logislated against these awards, and even, the Liberal governments are going slowly in recommending the granting of British honors.
 Digniticd reward for meritorious service to the state Is still under- stood, hut many public men who have rendered signal service have insisted on remaining plain Mister.
 Australia has had only one na- tive peer, the late Lord Forrest, who did so much work in eXplor- ing unknown Western Australia that the country forgave him his title

WOMEN SUCCEED IN GETTING SAME PAY
Swedish States Give Equal
 Salaries to Both

Stockholm, March l0.-Sweden's' working women have scored an i'm portant victory through the official recognition by the government of the principle Of equal pay for men and women in the employ of the state. The recognition appears in the form of a recommendation sub mitted to the Riksdag by Minister of Finance Thorsson, along with the estimate for the next state budget.
 In justifying his proposal MT. ThOrsson points out that the civil service law virtually gives women the same privileges and responsi- bilities as men, so far as the actual work is concerned, and it is only logical, therefore, that the salary of any given position should remain constant, whether the service is rendered by man or woman.
 What makes the victory for the women the more striking is the fact that the budget estimate, in spite of the strictest scrutiny of every item, will involve nesti- mated expenditure of s11,OOo,0O0 more than last year. This means that, although no new or increased taxes are contemplated, all hope for any early tax reduction must be abandoned.
 The minister of finance character izes, the economic situation in Swe- den as generally good. He looks for stable conditions during the next fiscal year and says that, if there is any change. it is likely to be an im- provemcnt.

CHILD MARRIAGE /.
 REPORT ISSUED
Russell Sage Foundation Gives
 Out Statement
i---

New York, March 10.-More than 667,0O0 persona living in the United States today were "chld brides" less than 16 years of age when they married. or were married to brides under that age, and the great ma jority of these. contrary to popular belief are native white of native parentage. These are few of the many facts revealed In an extend- cd study of child marriages pur- sued in 90 cities in 2S states, 6 pre- liminary report on which was made public here today by the Russell Sage Foundation.
 This situation is due in. large measure to two causes says the re- port; The fact that many states re- quire no better evidence of age than the affidavit of one of the candidates for a marriage license, and that the legal minimum mar riage age is still only 12 years for girls and 14-years for boys in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, kcm ucky, Louisiana, Virginia, Florida, Maryland, Rhode Island. Tennessee, Colorado. Idaho, Maine and Mississippi.
 Continuing the report given out by the Foundation says "The seriousness of the situation becomes even more impressive when it is known that the Foundation classes as child brides only those under 16 years of age; that 1t does not take into account the many marriages of children over IS, but under IS; and that the total of G67 900 child brides and husbands of child brides is increased each year by thousands Of additional child marriages. Nor have the Foundations investigators included in their estimates boys married at IT or younger to girls or women older than 15, because the number of such marriages is rela- lively small.
