This study treats the relationship of childlessness and color. There is a general cultural belief in the United States that indicates a higher amount of childlessness for white couples as compared with nonwhite couples. This belief was tested by using data from the 1960 United States Census. A five-percent sample of women, aged 35 to 54 years, indicates that the percentage of childless couples is much higher among nonwhite couples even under various controls which were employed. The data do not support but are contrary to the general belief
