Everything in Excellent Shape,
Mr.. Dingman told a reporter of The Star
today that everything was in excellent
shape for the prompt enumeration of the
capital city. He asked The Star man to
urge through his paper the necessity for
people to answer the enumerators ques-
tions. They were not intended as inauisi-
torial. but only in accordance with law for
the purpose of getting reliable statistical
data Each enumerator was provided with
badge showing his authority.
Replying to a question from Director
Merriam, Mr.. Dingman said the returns
from Washington would be the first to ar
| rive. Beyond that he could not promise
when the enumeration would be ready for
the counters.
