CENSUS BUREAU
TO Be QUERIED
Pensacola's Population Believed
to Be Much Greater Than
Report Expected to Show
MANY FAMILIES MISSED
Data Supplied to Kiwanis Club
Indicates Enumerators Failed
to Get All Residents.
BY LUCKY BALDWIN.

Mr.. and Mrs. Citizen, were you
enumerated when the census folks
were going round with their books?
If you weren't then Pensacola may
be counted short when the Census
Bureau makes its report.
Information given to the Kiwanis
Club yesterday by Leslie Partridge in
dicates that the report of Pensacola s
population may cause her to be listed
with cities of less than 10000 through
failure of enumerators to have names
of several hundred citizens on the
books.
Official information as to the CEN
sus of Pensacola is not available, at
tempts on the part of special CORES
pondents at Washington to obtain such
information being fruitless.
The Chamber of Commerce has
taken the matter up and Secretary
Price urges that every person in Pen
Sacola who believes his or her name
was omitted from the census, report
the facts to him.
Therefore, if you were not enumer-
ated you will be doing the city a ser
vice by reporting your name and the
names of members of your family to
Secretary Price.
When the official report of the cen
sus is given out over the press wires
Secretary Price will object and will
file with the bureau his information,
compiled from the reports you make
to him, and will ask that correct
census be made.
Only by having properly aathenti-
Gated figures at his command can
Secretary Price hope to persuade the
census bureau that a mistake has been
made. The facts which you give him
will be properly indexed and filed and
will aid him in serving the city.

sion of American AssOcia-
ton in Montgomery.

Montgomery, Ala, April ID The
third days session of the American
Cotton Association in session here was
featured by reports of committees and
several addresses from leading figures
in the cotton world.

committee which is headed by j. j.
Brown of Georgia, was made TINS
morning. The report recommended
that the price be set at minimum
of 60 cents a pound, middlng grade.

goods and the raw product is far out
of ratio as to advantage to the pro-
ducer of the staple.
The committee said IL was scarcely
necessary to mention acreage reduc-
ton, because of the great scarcity OF
labor on the farms, but did urge the
production of good crops in large
quantities.
The report was read TO the cohveh-
ton shortly after the committee came
in and without a single dissenting vote
was adopted by the body

That British and Northern
Interests Have Combined

Washington. April 15.-Congres-
sional investigation Of alleged efforts
by foreign interests to check develop
ment OF new American foreign trade
routes was asked today in a letter TO
Matthew Hale, president of the South
Atlantic States Corporation sent to
the senators from North and South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida

cent revision of export freight rates
manufacturers were able to market
through South Atlantic and Gulf ports
and southern ports for the first time
on a parity with New York. and as a
result are enjoying increased prosper
ity. Hale charged that certain COM
mercial org aniza i o n of various
North Atlantic ports had been induced
to cooperate in a fight against the new
rates but this should not disguise its
essential pro-B British character" He
said an attempt also was being made
to get the same freight rate 10 Hall

CAUSES
PAPER SCARCITY
Until Newsprint Situation I'm
proves Journal Will Cut Its
Edition to Six Pages.

The unauthorized railroad strike
has worked untold havoc with deliv-
cries of newsprint to southern papers
and practically every paper In the
south, and especially in Florida, Is
short Florida has been particularly
affected because there is but one gate
way into the south, east of Cincinnati
and most of the paper supplies to
Florida come over the single track
bridge of the Southern r. r. across the
Potomac at Washington. Some paper
comes by boat from New York but
this is held up because of the strike
of longshoremen in that port. The
Journal has plenty of paper but
cannot get it transported.
Until the shortage passes The Jour-
nal will cut it's daily editions to six
pages and will be forced to discontinue
many of its features. Revelations of
a Wife" will not appear again until
after the newsprint situation improves
and ''The Boys in the Other Car like
wise will be discontinued. The edi-
torial page also will be reduced to two
13-em columns and the space devoted
to news and advertising.
Every effort will be made TO cover
the news of the day but. many stories
will. of necessity, be abbreviated. The
Journal realizes that its subscribers
expect the world news to be fully COW
cred and will seek to give all that is
of interest and Importance. The jour
nal asks it's patrons TO bear with IL
remembering that the times are trou-
blouS.
