An examination of occupational histories of 161 fathers and sons in a midwestern city indicated that Protestant men achieved higher occupational and economic status than their Catholic counterparts. In this respect the present study fails to support the view that religious differences have ceased to be associated with vertical occupational mobility. Rather, additional evidence for the Protestant Ethic hypothesis is provided
