WARS EFFECT on
i. s. POPIJI. ALTON
PUZZLES EXPERTS

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2O.-Strik-
ing changes in the growth and char
acter of the population of the United
States are expected to be shown by
the 1920 census, preparations for
which are under way.
The shifting of population because
of the war has upset the calculations
of census experts, who since 1917
have considered it useless to attempt
to estimate population OF any other
units than states. Before that. it
was possible to predict with a fair
degree of accuracy the number of
persons in any given locality.
The center of population" it is
believed has stopped it's westward
movement. which was continuous
from 1890 to 1910, when it was To-
Gated in Bloomington, Ind. This is
because industrial cities in the cen
trail east. such as Cleveland and De-
troit. have been growing at a great
" increased rate during recent years,
as have manufacturing centers fur
Their east. Formerly the Rocky
mountain and Pacific coast states in
creased IN population with twice the
rapidity of eastern and central
states.
During this year. however, certain
notifications of the unusual situa-
ton may be made, The opening of
reclamation projects in the west, the
resumption of immigration and other
causes, it is thought. will change the
abnormal. distribution. There will
also be tendency to return to
normal now that the war is ended.
Pronounced changes are expected
also in the constitution of the pop
ulation''-the ratio of males to fe-
males, the proportions of native and
foreign stock, and the age distri-
button When a city experiences a
rapid growth due to industrial and
commercial activity, the gain in
population is largely made up of
persons in the young and early mid
dies ages. Among these persons
there will be more men than women.
For example. in Oklahoma City.
where the population grew nearly
500 per cent between 1900 and 1910.
the ratio of males to females in
the latter year was 126 to 100. and
81 per cent of the population was
between fifteen and forty-five.
The coming census is also expected
to SHOW a continuation of the move
ment from the country to the city,
which has been going on for many
decades. A further decrease in the
proportion of negro population is eX-
pected. In 1900 negroes numbered
lis per cent and in 1910 10.7 per
cent.
1t is expected that the percentage
of foreign-born will show a marked
decline, due to the discrimination
of immigration. In recent years the
native-born population did not in
crease as rapidly as the foreign-born.
Fewer persons will be found. it is
predicted, who are unable to speak
English. In 1910 this number was
22.S per cent of the population.

Rhode Island Governor
"AirDianeS" to Office

Governor Beeckman, of Rhode Is
land, is the first governor to go from
his country estate to his office in an
airplane. The governor is much
pleased with the experience.
The trip was suggested by Rear
Admiral Sims, president of the War
College, at Newport. r. l., and head
of the United States navy in Euro
pean waters during the war.
Admiral Sims said to the governor
recently, Why don't you go to work
by airplane?"
The reply was why don't you fur
n1sh me with the m2chine?"
This was easier for the admiral
than chasing German submarines in
the English channel, so he informed
the governor that the machine was
ready. 1t was the double motored
F-5 type of craft, and was command

UNDUE Buying is
SHOE COST FACTOR

IMPRACTlCABLE TO DO
AWAY WITH JOBBER

BOSTON. An. i2.-Ienry r. Endi-
colt and Richard H. Long. shoe manu-
faclurers and two representative OF
local retail shoe stores, testified yes
terday at a grand jury investigation Of
the causes OF the high prices Of shoes,
Instituted by District Attorney Joseph
@. Pelletier.
The district attorneys office said
that one witness declared that the cost
OF labor and materials, poor transpor-
tatlon and undue buying by the public
generally had combined TO create the
present situation. The only specula-
tlon going on in the shoe market, 1t
was said was on the part Of consum-
ers. Many persons. the witness said,
appeared to be buying shoes IN an
ticipaton OF an advance in prices, thus
causing a demand in excess OF the
available supply and tending to force
prices up.
Elimination OF the jobber as a means
of reducing costs was impractcmle, in
the opinion OF another witness, be
cause. he said. many retailers had not
the capital 40 keep a big stock and
must have recourse TO the iobber.
10 WAS brought out that one retail
concern carried COO styles Of shoes, and
while it was said that lessening the
number OF styles might increase the
production there were many who
bought shoes for style rather than SER
vice and ofteniimes three pairs were
required where one pair would last as
long.
