Korean Crisis Booms MARRIAGES,
Brides Younger, Census Reports

The Korean crisis has brought
about a boom in the marriage
market, according to the latest
figures of the Census Bureau.
Paul c. Click. chief of the bu-
reau's social statistics section
made the statement at a panel
meeting of the Mid-century White
House Conference on Children
and Youth at the National Guard
Armory yesterday.
He told the group that. since
the beginning of hostilities In
Korea last June and the reSump-
tion of selective service calls, there
has been a wave of marriages
among young people.
1.-The three-month period, from
July through September saw about
Is per cnet more marriages than
the same period last year" he
said. 1T is problematical how
long this new marriage boom will
persist, but it has already been
large enough to insure more mar
riages in 1850 than in 1949."
Higher Birth Rate Seen.
He added that many of these
new couples will have their first
child in 1851 and 1852.
I'm consequence. we should not
be surprised If the number of
births next year proves to be
larger than in either 1850 or 1949,"
he said.
The 1850 count of population has
shown a total of 81 million persons
under the age of 81, compared to
48 million in 1910. the speaker said.
The child population showed a 13
per cent incerase during the per-
iod. compared with a IA per cent
increase In the older population.
Studies based on sample tabula-
tions of the total count reveal many
significant characteristics of this
child population, Mr.. Click said.
For example, they show that
women are getting married at an
earlier age than ever. The census
showed that half of the women
who married did so before their

Large Under-Fiv Group.
In the overall increase of child
population. there are wide differ
ences noted among the various age
groups, Mr.. Click told the group:
"The most striking growth has
occurred among children under S.
There are 6 million more young
sters in this group than in 1910,
representing an increase of 55 per
cent. In fact, one-thir1 of all
persons under 81 are less than 5
years old.
1T is this age group. of course,
which will be entering school over
the next few years, and which will
necessitate an even greater ex-
pansion Of school facilities and
personnel than has been made
with such difficulty in the past
four years.
On the other hand the age
group from 10 to 20 years Is small
er today than 1t was 10 years ago,
Mr.. Click said.
The decline of more than 2
million in the number Of persons
10 to 20 years of age reflects the
entry into this age range of chill
dren born in the low birth-rate
years of the economic depression.
One principal effect of this trend
is to curtail the number OF new
workers entering the labor force.
1t also restricts the number of
youths eligible for military serv-

are well started on the way toward
being useful and honorable citizens.
And do not think I am being old
fashioned when I say that they
ought to have religious training
when they are young. and that
they will be happier for it and
better for it the rest of their lives.
In the days ahead. there will be
many cases in which we will have
to make special efforts to see that
children get fair chance at the
right kind of start in life. For as
our defense effort is increased.
special problems will be created by
the disruption of the lives Of many
families.
When the White House confer
ence was held in 1910, the nature Of
the defense problems which lay
ahead was not very clear to those
who participated. But in the years
that followed, we found that the
defense program created many
problems of migration, divided IA
miles, working mothers, inadequate
housing at defense centers and
military camps. lack of community
services and of facilities for edu-
cation and child welfare.
Experience Fresh In Mind.
Today we know much more about
these problems. and our recent ex-
perience in trying to solve them Is
fresh in our minds. I know thai

self-interest and greed-that they

Attempt to Poison Minds.
We who live in this country know,
from our own experience. how
false this attack of Communism is.
But there are many people in other
parts of the world who have Suf-
fered injustice, or who have been
oppressed, or who stagger under
burdens of poverty or disease, to
whom the false doctrines of Com
muniSm have an appeal. And
every time our American insltu-
tions fail to live up to their high
purposes, ever time they fail in the
proper administration of justice,
the forces of Communism are aid
ed in their attempt to poison the
minds of men everywhere.
Our teachers-and all others who
deal with our young people-should
place uppermost the need for max
ing our young people understand
our free institutions and the values
on which they rest. We must fight
against the moral cynicism-the
materialistic view of life-on which
Communism feeds. We must teach
the objectives that lie behind our
institutions, and the duty of all our
citizens to make those institutions
work more perfectly. Nothing Is
more important than this. And
nothing this conference can do will
have a greater effect on the world
struggle against Communism than
spelling out the ways in which our
young people can better understand
our democratic institutions, and
why we must fight, when necessary.
to defend them.
Aid TO Democracy.
These White House Conferences
have done a great deal, over the
years, to make our people and our
Government conscious of our social
problems, as they affect children
and to help solve those problems
These conferences have made ou1
democracy work better-have aided
1t to carry out its promise Of a
better life for all.
In this fifth conference of this
White House series, you are carry
ing on that great tradition. This
year you are mainly concerned with
the mental and moral health of our
children. And that is exactly what
you should be concerned with at
this time.
1 do not claim to be an expert
in these things, and I know that
l am addressing a conference Of
experts, but I think there are GER
tain fundamental factors in the
development Of the American char
acter. The basis of mental and
moral strength for our children lies
in spiritual things. 1t lies first
of all in the home. And next, 1t
lies in the religious and moral in
f1uences which are brought to bear
on the children.
Need Religious Training.

clearly understand the nature of
the crisis. We must understand the
nature OF the threat created by
international Communism.
In the first place, 1t is obviously
military threat. The Communist
dominated countries are maintain
ing large military forces-far larger
than they could possibly need for
peaceful purposes. And they have
shown by their actions in Korea
that they will not hesitate to use
these forces in armed aggression
whenever 1t suits their evil purposes.
Because of this military threat,
We must strengthen our military de-
fenses. We are now engaged in a
great program Of rearmament. This
will change the lives of our young
people. A great many of them will
have to devote some part OF their
lives to service In our armed forces
or other defense activities. In no
other way can we insure our sur
vival as a Nation.
Objective Outlined.
Our objective is not simply to
build up our own armed forces. Our
objective is rather to help build up
the collective strength of the free
nations-the nations which share
the ideals and aspirations Of free
men.
| AS a matter OF defense, we need
| the combined resources and the
common determination of the free
world to meet the military threat
of Communism
But our problem is more than a
military matter. Our problem and
our objective is to build a world
order based on freedom and justice
We have worked with the free
nations to lay the foundations of
such a world order in the United
Nations, and we must remain firm
in our commitment to the United
Nations. That Is the only way out
of an endless circle of force and
retaliation, violence and war-which
will carry the human race back to
the dark ages II it is not stopped.
And this is a point that we must
make sure our children and young
people understand.
Moral, Spiritual Dangers.
The threat of Communism has
other aspects than the military as
pect. In some ways. the moral and
spiritual dangers that flow from
Communism are a more serious
threat TO freedom than its military
power.
The theology of Communism is
a challenge to all the values Of our
society and our way of life. Some
people are most concerned about
the Communist threat to our eco
nomic system. But, serious as this
is, it is only one of the many prob
lens that Communism raises.
Communism attacks our basic
values, our belief in God, our belief
in the dignity Of man and the value
Of human life, our belief in justice
and freedom. 1t attacks the insti-
tutions that are based on these
values. 1t attacks our churches,
our guarantees of civil liberty, our
courts, our democratic form of gov
ernment. Communism claims that
all these things are merely tools Of
