SCOPE OF THE FOURTEENTH CEN.
SUS EXTENDED.

Washington, Nov. 6.-That the
Fourteenth Decennial Census, on
which the actual enumeration work
will begin January 2, 1920, is to be
the most important ever taken is
shown by the fact that the Act of
Congress providing for this census
expressly increased the scope Of the
inquiries so as to include forestry
and forest products, two subjects
never covered specifically by any pre-
ceding census act.
The inquiries to be made relating
to population, manufactures, mines,
quarries and agriculture were also
extended in their scope by Congress,
the keenest interest over the forth
coming census having been shown by
the members of the census commit
tees of both THE House and Senate
while the law was under considera-
ton
The statistics gathered on mining
will include all oil and gas wells.
Many startling developments in this
important branch of the Nations re-
sources are looked for by census Off
Gals. The figures gathered in Texas,
Oklahoma and Kansas will no doubt
prove to be those most eagerly sought
for. as shown by inquiries already re-
ceived by the Census Bureau.
The compilation and gathering of
forestry and forest products statistics
will be in charge of a special force
of experts. The accurate and COM
prehensive figures gathered concern

much in demand. and the comparisons
made with conditions existing before
the war will be of great interest.
Agricultural statistics will likewise
be the subject of special effort on the
part of the Census Bureau as the i'm
portance of farming is being realized
by the average citizen far more than
ever before.

MINISTRATION.
Allows Cars to go Abroad When
Shortage Exists at Our Own Coal
Mines.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Both the &C.
illogical Survey and the National Coal
Association are in agreement as to
the fact Of the country facing a coal
shortage. The chief reason for this
threatened shortage, moreover, is the
failure Of the railroad administration
to provided a sufficient number of
cars to carry the coal away from the
mines.
Statistics from different quarters
agree in respect to the lack of cars.
Not only has the railroad administra-
ton, according to those who have ex-
amined into the situation, and ac-
cording to prominent coal men, fail
ed to keep cars in repair but it has
been lax in delivering new cars.
Still further, there is information
to show that American carmanufac-
turers built thos year and shipped
to France large numbers of cars,
said to be property Of this govern
ment Why such cars should be go
ing abroad at a time when needed
seriously in America is something
which is not clear.

 Charles Sumner.
ssnatnr Rftohoock,s Secret

Senator Hitchcock is said to have come into pos session on Saturday of information regarding the amendments which have been made to the covenant of the League of Nations. He has declined to give publicity it, it may be presumed that he is the only man in the United States who knows what these amendments are. Yet Senator Hitchcock standing alone falls considerably short of being two-thrds of Inc membership of the senate and it will require fully two thirds to give effect to the covenant Without the senates assent the time which the gentlemen at Paris have lavished upon this document will have been wholly wasted.
 It would seem that the earlier these amendments could be given the widest American publicity the better would be the idea of the League of Nations The more the deficiencies of the original covenant have discussed the stronger the opposition to it has grown and sentiment is being gradually but uninten tionaly formed against the entire project Certainly the fftysix senators constituting more than half the membership of the senate, who have joined by their solemn signatures against the original covenant going be placated by being kept in the dark In fact it their being kept in the dark from the be- ginning that inclined them hostility to the project

 We are solaced. however by intimation that MT. Hitchcock will make disclosure of what he has learned in the his joint debate at New York tonight with Senator Lenroot. It is that is long period between Saturday and Monday night but in these turbulent days is happening every forty eight hours and any gain of time, however small is desirable.
 It may be that this information is of the nature of ammunition for Mir Hitchcock to be used in the de- bate; intended to give him distinct advantage over Mir. Lenroot It also may be, the other hand that if this ammunition is of the right kind; that if Mr. Lenroot knew what Mir Hitchcock knows there would be debate; for debate, for gentlemen might be in full accord the covenant as amended The right kind of covenant for the perpetuaton of in the world might be used in this case to estab fish peace between MT.
