Bureau Of the Census-The Secre-
tary's Vigorous Address Fol-
low the President.
ALL WILL WILL BE GLAD
TO READ THIS INFORMATION.

Secretary Nagel Of the Department
Of Commerce and Labor, under
whose supervision is the work Of the
Bureau Of the Census, at the confer
ence Of eastern state supervisors
here, gave a vigorous talk on the
subject Of their duty, in which he
emphasized and added to what had
been said by the President to the
Census field chiefs previously at the
White House. The Secretary said:
81 wanted g chance to meet yJu-
not to speak to you, but to shake
hands and possibly exchange a word
here and there as occasion might Of
fer. There Is q further reason why
it will be difficult for me to say any
thing at this time. We have q rule
that after the President has spoken
his Secretaries have nothing to say.
lLaughter1 happened to be in
the White House when you we're
there, aud heard what the President
aid. 10 now repest would not give
emphasis; to add q barely psrdOna-
lie.
al am very glad that you did have
an opportunity, however, to meet
the President himself aud to hear
from him just what the attitude Of
the Executive on this matter Of toe
taking Of the census is aud am
glad that he had an opportunity 10
say to you how thoroughly he is 10
earnest about what he has heretofore
said.
III is unnecessary for me to dwell
upon the importance of a correct
census. OF course, we want to take a
better census than has ever before
taken and that is no disparsgement
of the work Of predecessors. We
ought to improve; We ought TO i'm
prove for reasons which are self evil
dent, we ought to improve because
the need for a correct and adequate
census now is greater than it has
ever been before. Ii is so on &C
count of the growth Of our own
country, and because we are coming
into relations with other countries,
so that correct report aud a reliable
statement, to be used not only al
home but for comparison with what
other countries are doing, is the one
essential foundation Of all calculs.

"Now, we have done, as We think
what we can to accomplish that re
suit So far as we could, we have
placed IN charge here at the head
men who are experienced, competent,
and enthusiastic. Of course the Of
fee here might perfect in its machi-
merry aud its administration, and yet
the entire work would be failure
unless you did what the President
indicated this morning. After all,
granting false premise anything
can be proved. No matter how fine
the superstructure may be, if the
foundation is not right the building
is not worth anything. 1t is for you
to furnish the foundation for what
is going to be done. You are respon
