On 'Repeat' Marriages
CLEVELAND. Apr. 2 —(U.R)—'Wo-
men get married more often than
men do in Cuyahoga county—the
Greater Cleveland area—a survey
disclosed.
A study of 1,200 January mar-
riage license applications made by
Commissioner William Jenks re-
vealed that the odds were three to
one that persons married in that
f month never tried it before.
For every eight people divorced
here in December, there were;
three who married a .second, third
or fourth time in January.
Of the 2.400 individulas Involved
in Jenks’ study, 602 had been mar-
ried at least once before. Of them,
317 were women and 285 were
men.
Common Pleas Judge Samuel H.
Silbert, dean of the domestic rela-
tion* court, commenting on the
fact that women marry more often
than men, said, “grass widows can
got husbands much more easily
than single girls.
"They know the psychology of
men and are usually not so timid,”
he said.
