No po!ltle. In csn.u. Jobs.

Washington.-Every measure is be-
ing taken by Census Director Durand
In carrying out President Taft's deter
mination to prevent political activity
on the part Of the census supervisors
and enumerators during their term OF
office.
Census officials are prohibited from
holding office or membership in any
political committee during their term
OF office. or taking any active part in
politics. by public addresses, solicita-
ton of votes, or otherwise.
Supervisors holding office or msm-
bership in any political committee
must resign such position and refsain
from political activity during their
term of office.
In view of the provision in almost
every state constitution that no state
officer shall hold federal position
at the same time. the director also
calls for information on this point.
Az fast as the supervisors prove
lnat they have met these requirements.
the commissions will be forwarded.
