Ratio of Elders
Doubles in Century
The ratio of elders to those an
the main working years of life has
doubled in the United States
during the past century, and has
increased by nearly two thirds
since 1900.
One hundred years ago there
were only about six persons at
age 65 or older for each 100 of the
population at 20 to 64. By 1900 the
ratio had climbed to eight, and
since then it has risen even more
rapidly and is now 13.
Although the segment of the pop
ulation at 65 or over has been in
creasing, the relative importance
of the dependent population as a
whole has declined, due to a rapid
drop in the ratio of children to the
population at the main productive
ages. The number of children un
der 18 per 100 persons at ages 20-
64 has been cut in half, from 107 in
1850 to about 54 in 1950.
In very recent years, however,
due to the war and postwar spurt
in the birth rate, this trend has
been reversed and the child popu
lation has increased at a more
rapid rate than people at ages 20-
64 This will continue for at least
a decade, even if allowance is
made for a steady decline in the
birth rate from its present level,
and at the same time the popula
tion at the older ages will continue
its long-term upward climb.
As a result, we are entering a
period when the country will have
to provide for the expanding social
and economic needs of both its
large child and aged populations,
each growing at a faster rate than
the population at the main work
ing ages.

Personal
To Women With
Nagging Backache
As we get older, stress and strain, over
exertion, excessive smokinß or exposure to
cold sometimes slows down kidney func
tion. This may lead many folks to com
plain of naßßing backache, loss of pep and
enerßy, headachea and dizziness. Getting
up nights or frequent passages may result
from minor bladder irritations due to cold,
dampness or dietary indiscretions.
If your discomforts are due to these
causes, don’t wait, try Doan’s Pills, a mild
diuretic. Used successfully by millions for
over 50 years. While these symptoms may
often otherwise occur, it's amazing how
many times Doan's give happy relief
help the 15 miles of kidney tubes and filters
fiush out waste. Get Doan’s Pilis today!
