tors have practically completed their al
lotted tasks. and the entire work will be

Roughton, supervisor of the census for the
District today expressed himself as well
pleased with the progress of the enumera-
ton. He praised the work of his corps
OF supervisors, and said they had aver
aged about 10 names a day.
Reports from other cities tell of census
enunlerators being attacked by irate
citizens and citiZenesses when such ques-
tons were asked as: rs your property
mortga ged?'' Are you deaf, dumb or
blind?" and How old are you" In the
District the only case of violence report
ed was by Deputy Supervisor Mclean, to
whom an enumeration complained that a
vicious fox terrier had attacked him in
lhe northern suburbs and compelled the
census man to do a tall piece of sprint
ing around and around Il hay stack and
building. The only damage sustained by
the enumerator was the tearing of his
