MALES IN THE MAJORITY IN AMERICA.
There were 2,090,132 more males than females in. the United Slates in 1920, making the ratio 104 io 100 as compared with 100 to every 300 females in 1910, the. Census Bureau announced recently.
A preponderance of males has been shown in every Census, due primarily, the announcement said, to the considerable number of foreign born residents among whom the males greatly outnumber the opposite sex. Thirteen per cent, of the country’s total population in 1920 were foreign born. Every Slate except Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama had an excess of males over females. These seven & t States had rations ranging from 96.3 to 100 for Massachusetts, to 99.9 for North Carolina.
