California Senate debates age of marriage and women’s commission
In Sacramento the California Senate split 1-1 on a pair of measures. A bill by Sen. Ralph Dills would allow 18 year olds to marry without parental consent, while another measure kept the Commission of the Status of Women with ongoing state funding. The marriage bill passed 21-4 after brief debate, drawing opposition that it could burden education and welfare rolls. The commission bill passed to concurrence with a $45,500 appropriation to study women’s education and employment issues, though critics argued the unit is wasteful.
