department that there Is no way by
which birth statistics can be- accurately
ascertained and presented to the pub

knew this long ago. But where did the
RooZers' Union get the fake figures up
on which they have been basing thc'r
reports for some years past!
OF course. nobody believes that the
population of Chicago is decreasing,
Nobody believes any of the reports IT
the Boozers' Union. They are all mis-,

stances positively untrue. Take the
alleged daily analysis of our water, for

daily analysis is simply IN lnH'oasi-

bulletin department II the Boozers' I'M
ion itself cannot be suppressed en-
masse.
