which the promise is alleged to have
been made, and that SO far as the Presi-
dent knows there Is no such record in
this country. Senator Spencer called
for the record.
The statement, which the Missouri
senator has charged to President VIII
son, and which Is being used as part of
the Republican campaign against the
League of Nations, is said, according to
various published reports, to have been
made by the President at a session oi
the Council of Four, on May 81. 1919.
Mr.. Spencer, however, referred to Il as
having been made at the eighth plenary
session Of the Peace Conference.
President Wilson tells me there Il
no stenographic record Of the proceed
ings of the conference in his posses
sion," Mr.. Tumulty said. "and so far
as the President knows there is none
In this country"
Mr.. Tumulty added that at was up
to those making the charges to pro-
duce the proof. There was no intima
ton rs to whether the President would
make further reply to Senator Spencer.

STATE POPULATION
IS NOW S,720,159
Growth Since Last Census
LOSS, ,O49, or 1873 Per Cent.
Retains Second Rank
LOWEST RATE IN HISTORY
BY the Associated Press

Washington, Oct. 7.-Pennsylvania' &
population, as reported today by the
census bureau, is S,720. .15O, an in
crease Of 1865 ,04S. or 1875 per cent
over the figures of ten years ago. This
Is the smallest ratio Of increase in the
history Of the state.
The total marks Pennsylvania 3 sec
ond largest numerical growth on record
and also the second greatest growth OF
any state in tho 1920 census.
The state retains its rank as second
most populous in the Union, which
Il has held since 1880, when it dis
placed Virginia.
While showing substantial growth
at remarkably uniform rate during
every decade since 100, the population
Of Pennsylvania increased more rap
idly during the first sixty years Of the
40 year period ending in 1920 than
during the last seventy years. In 1850
the population OF the state was more
than five times the population in 1890,
the rates of increase for the several
decades ranging from 90 for 1880 40
to 3S.7 for 1850 go. The absolute in
crease in the population Of the state has
been larger at each succeeding census
since 1870.
Comparison of the rates Of increase
for the state with those Of the United
States as n whole shows that during
the ten years ending with 1910 the
population increased more raDidly than
that Of the United States. but that for
every other decade since that following
the first federal census in 1900 1900
the rate Of increase for tho country was
higher than that for the state. The
largest difference between the lNo ra,"r
was for the decade 1850 60, when the
rate for the United States was 80.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-10-07

per cent as compared with 25.7 per
cent for the state. The smallest diff
ference was g per cent for the decade
l00O-10.
The population of Philadelphia, re-.
vised, Is 1923, 100, an increase OF
274,771, or III per cent. 1t was pre-
viously announced as 1923, 1853.
Other populations reported follow
Ohio, $3.50, ,38S, increase. 992 ,247 or
20.S per cent. Michigan, 1857 ,222,
increase, S57, 7,O49 or 80.5 per cent.
Iowa, 2,4O3, $3.50, increase, 17s,S59, or
8 per cent. Virginia, 2,306, ,301, in
crease, 244 4,749, or ITO per cent. Ar
kansas, 1,750, ,995, increase, 176, SAC. or
11.2 per cent. Florida, 986, ,296, in
crease, 213,677, or 2S.4 per cent.
The bulk Of its work completed, the
Census Bureau late today will announce
the total number of inhabitants In con
tinental United States.
Indications are that the complete cen
sus, the fourteenth in the country's his
tory, will show a total population for
the United States, exclusive OF insular
possessions, of approximately 105, ,700,-
900. Nearly ~, 250 900 persons are es-
timatcd to be living in island posses
sion, making III ,950, 900 persons under
the protection of the Stars and Stripes.
These estimates are based on recent
official announcement that the census
when So per cent complete gave popu
lation of 90,5S8, 742 for that proportion
Of the country.
The relative growth Of the nation
from 1000 to 1910 was q per cent,
but this rate Is expected to be cut to
at least Is per cent this year, chiefly,
census bureau officials say, through
stoppage of immigration during the
war and by the heavy emigration
during that period.

pleased today over an ann~x1cement
that the Atlantic City Electric Co, a

The only statement obtainable was
that the company received notice its re-

Der of years, and has built it up to
where it is the equal of any. educa-

On the return trip to Maplewood
in Bradley's car Alison occupied the
tonneau with Kate. while George
Gibson sat in front with the owner.
Larry had left the supper party
early to gather up his family. and
Gwen Parker and her guest were
comfortably tucked away in young
Comstocks' roadster. which trailed
Bradley's high-powered car.
Alison, I take my hat off to you"
whispered Kate Gibson in a tone too
low for the men in front to hear.
You're a thoroughbred all right!
There's not a young wife in a mill
lion who would have carried things
off tonight as you did,
Alison warmed to the praise, but
she shrugged and replied lightly:
why not be casual about sOme-
thing that doesn't disturb you?"
Through the darkness Kate Glib
son peered at her.
DO you honestly mean that
Larry's going off with Gwen Parker
and that insufferable little guest of
hers didn't anger you a bit?"
"I don't quite know" returned
Alison slowly and honestly. 1T
angered me in a way-yes. But I
very much fear that it was my
pride that received a jolt, not my
heart"
