ASSERTS DURAND
DID NOT RESIGN
Senator Townsend Tells the
Senate Mr.. RedfieId's State
ment Was incorrect.

Senator Townsend, minority member
of the Senate census committee, today
told the Senate that Secretary Redfield
had not correctly related the facts in
his explanation of the appointment OF
W. J. Harris to succeed E. Dana Durand
as director of census, and whom Mr.
Hughes, republican candidate for Pres
ident, recently charged had been re-
moved for political reasons.
THE Secretary of Commerce said that
Mr.. Durand resigned" said Senator
Townsend. That is not correct. The
fact is that Secretary Redfield called
on Durand in April and stated that
he desired that position. Durand re-
piled that much important work was
in progress and that he ought to be
allowed to finish it. The next day Mr.
Harris nomination was sent to tile
Senate and the next day it was an
nounced that Mr.. Durand had re-
signed"
