WASHINGTON. Feb. g.. The an
nual report Of Director Durand, of
the bureau OF census for the fiscal
year ended June 20, 1912, has been
submitted to the secretary of COM
Gnerce and labor.
Regarding the cost Of the thir-
Reenth decennial census. the report
states that the grand total expendi-
Sure from July /, 1909, to June 90,
1912, was SIS, III. 5s3. of which 81, 229, 1856
was expended for field work fsalaries
OF supervisors and erumerators, etc. !;
1921, 446 for compilation and publ.
cation Of statistics, and $1,676, 762 for
annual and other Investigations of
the permanent bureau not connected
with the decennial census. The total
appropriations. receipts, etc, were
3ik,175,4S7
On the subject of appropriations
the report states that the bureaus
estimates Of expenditures for the
fiscal year 1918 was s1,612, 440. The
total appropriation by Congress for
the year was s1,54S,92o. Included in
the amount were 100000 for the en-
ployment of temporary clerks to COM
plete the thirteenth census work, and
S272000 for The printing of the re-
ports.
The estimates for the work of the
bureau for the fiscal year 1914
amounted to 81. eSs, 800, net decrease
as compared with the appropriation
made for the previous year.
The most striking recommendations
in Director Durand's report are the
plan to use United States mail car
riers in the future to perform as
large part of the census field work
as possible, and the plan to provide
for the supervision of this field work
by trained census employees instead
of or in addition to supervisors or
, her directing officers chosen locally.
1t is proposed, If Congress approves,
TO apply these methods to the special
census of agriculture which, by au-
thority Of recent act Is to be taken
in 1916.
In regard to the plan Of using mail
carriers, Director Durand says in his
report:
while greater efforts were made
at the census of 1910 than at any
previous census to secure competent
supervisors and enumerators, and to
eliminate political influence in their
selection, the general method of se-
ieeting, directing and paying them
was substantially the same as at
the three preceding censuses. The
chief objection to that method is not
the fact that politics is bound to a
greater or less extent to enter into
the appointments.
1T is rather that both supervisors
and enumerators are in the great ma
FORTY Of instances entirely inexpe-
rienced in census work; that there Is
no way OF guaranteeing that they
shall be particularly familiar with
the people and the conditions of their
districts; that the term of employ
ment, particularly of enumerators. is
SO short and the pay so small that 1t
is very difficult to induce competent
persons to take the job; and, finally,
that there is no adequate means OF
holding supervisors or enumerators
responsible for conscientious and
thorough work.
..'Seventy thousand or more enumer-
ators must be secured for work last

Sneak Thieves Rob
ChdutduQud Girls

Bad luck appears to have accom-
panied the Seminary Girls to Valley
City. First delayed trains, then a re-
fractory bus man forgot a promise
made to bring the girls to Chautauqua
grounds and finally while the girls
were giving the early part of the pro-
gram some sneak thief entered their
dressing tent and took SIS from a
handbag, leaving the bag, minus the
contents. The money was left only
a few moments as some uneasiness
was felt and Rev. Karr went after it
almost at once but the cash had al
ready been extracted. No one is sus-
pected but extra precaution will be
taken in an effort to locate the sneak
that he may be removed to a place
where he will respect other peoples
