A MISTAKE OF THE CENSUS EXPERTS

The fellows who made the estimates for the seectve
draft registration lived in the and did not under
stand conditions that have prevailed in the west for
several years They made their estimates as to popua-
ton the basis of average increases shown by the
census and did not take into consideration that mmgra-
on has practically ceased and that such as reached
shores absorbed by factories and munton plants in
the East instead of any of it being allowed to drift
further West Besides they overlooked the fact that the
increased prosperity of the East caused by the war; and
the increased wages due to it, conditions that did not
reach the Pacific coast caused loss of population in
stead Of gain On account Of this the Pacific coast
states have all fallen below the estimates in registration
and the East is blaming the West for having great
horde Of sackers This is not the case for there
