SEX QUESTION my&m& One of the Most Fundamental Factors " to Be Considered fn the . Analysis of Society. = In 1920 there were 104 men to every 100 women in the United States Whether this ratio has risen of fallen will be one of the most important facts to be determined by the 1930 census, according te Dr. Joseph A, Hill, director of the census who has pointed out that the- relative number of the males to females is one of the most fundamental factors to be considered in any analysis of society. The sex question has always had an important place among the list of questions asked by the enumerators at each ‘decennial census of the United States, Dr. Hill said. Even in the first very simple census taken in 1799. when ' only four questions were on the census schedule, one of them concerned the sex of the white persons enumerated. ‘The sex of negroes was not considered important enough to be recorded until the census of 1840, when members of the colored race were registered according to sex for the first time by the census hireau. . As far back as the records go, there have always been more males than females in the United States. In 1790, the sex ratio for the white populaaion was 103.8 to 100. The early frontier days of our history called for men more strongly than for women. -

.The continued excese of males in the United . States is accounted for mainly by immigration, since males immigrate in larger numbers than females. This explains the fact that the excess of males reached its maximum in 1910, at the end of a decade of the heaviest immigration this country has even known. The sex ratio then went up to 106 to 100. In 1920 it had dropped to 104 to 100, due largely to the restricted immigration during the war, and to the number of American men who remained in Flanders. 5 - AL

It is of interest to inquire what the ratio of males to females is or would be if not affected by immigration. It is a statistically established fact that the. mumber of male births is slightly greater than the number of female. But for some reason, which biologists apparently have not- yet fathomed, the female infant is more tenacious of life than her baby brother, who consequently does not maintain. the numerical superiority which he had at the omtset. By the time the rising generation reaches maturity the two sexes are nearly equal in number. - The information obtained through the census as to the number of males i:m‘d females in the population is in}dispnnsable «in the vcalcul,ation of life ‘tables. in the determination of mortality rates, and in strudying the incidence of “disease. It is knowledge that nneded in business, in legislation, ‘and ‘other connections. - “Sunny Side Up” at Crystal this Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday. > Indiana BasKetbaH (razy. Indiana is basketball crazy and is sacrificing its boys and girls on the altar of sport, Dr. H. BE. Barnard, former state food and drug commissioner chairman of President Hoover's conference on child health and protecion, told the convention of the Indiana League of Women Voters meeting at Indianapolis. : “The school system of which these basketball games are a part, and the whole community, clearly -over-em-prasize the minor part the athletic director plays in the physical and health ‘edncation of all the children in school,”. Dr. Barnard said. - : “All these activities of physical education and recreation are being studied by an important committee of ‘the -child- health conference, and it 'may be that the conclusions reached as a result of these studies will help us in developing better systems of supervised playgrounds for our children.l o st
