EXPLAINS COTTON REPORTS.
Director Durand of Census Makes
Clear Apparent Discrepancy

The apparent disagreement between
the reports of the census bureau and
the tariff board concerning the cotton
production in 1910 was today explained.
by Director Durand of the census
The statement has been made that the
census bureau issued a report giving
the cotton production for 1910 as H.
$4,000 bales, and that the tariff boa I'd
gave the production at 10,3S6,0 900 AS
a matter of fact, both of these figures
are taken from the census reports, the
first, l1,4S3, 900 bales, is the net amount
of cotton produced. including linters
expressed in equivalent 500-pound bales
of the 1910 crop. The 10,3S6,000 bales
is the total number of running bales
counting round half bales and in
Guiding linters, for the crop of 1909
In using the census figures the tariff
board has considered the 1909 crop as
representing the commercial year end
ing August 81. 1910. Director Durand
was advised by the tariff board that this
matter had been fully explained TO the
Southern Commercial Congress.

TENEMENTS
MUST CLEAN UP
Board Of Health Finds Many
UnSanitary Quarters and
Will Go After Owners

Shocking conditions in the tenement
life of this city we're disclosed yes
terday afternoon at the meeting of the
Board Of Health when reports of in
vestigations carried on by health Of
ficers were read.
These reports showed that as many
as twenty-one and twenty-four per-
sons lived in 1ouaes where there
was no sewerage connection. and no
running water, except in the bathroom
which, according to the health officers,
was found to be in filthy condi-
ton.
In many cases there are as many as
five persons living in one room, and
a report of the persons to whom the
rooms are rented would suggest the
need Of a house missionary move
ment.
Against such conditions the health
authorities are going to fight hard and
the owners of the properties here re-
ferred to will be notified that they
must connect with the sewer and fur
nish their houses with sanitary
bathroom on each floor, this being
made necessary in an ordinance gov
erning apartment houses, in the same
class with which the Board of Health
holds these places to be.
