Census Figures Give City a Fair
Enumeration

As result of the rechecking OF
the census enumeration, several
hundred names were added to the
list and the city now has fair emu
meration. A
1t is unofficially estimated that
the population of Columbus will be
slightly above the IL 900 figure.
The initial enumeration gave the
city less than $500 population. and
in view of the crowded condition
of the city and the conditions gen.
orally it was apparent that the count
was not complete.
On the initiation of Mayor Nc
Clanahan. Mr.. Thomas J. Locke.
president of the Chamber of Com
merce. and Mr.. V. B. lines. who di-
rected the recount, arrangements
were made to check the enumera-
ton, and as result of this work
the scity has fair and adequate
enumeration.
Columbus will be in the class of
cities in the country with 10000
population and over, and the cost
and expense of making the recount
is a mere baeatelle compared with
the added prestige and standing and
material value the revised popula-
ton figures will give the city.-Co-
lumbus Dispatch.

Congress Should Cure the Print
Paper Famine

The smaller papers throughout the
country are in dire distress because
OF the scarcity of print paper and the
high prices charged them for such
print paper as they can get. These
smaller papers are calling upon Con-
gress. and Congress is under obligs-
ton to these smaller papers and to
their clientele to consider their case
carefully and to act iudiciously but
positively in their behalf.
The large papers in the big cities
have, to certain extent. the same
difficulties As the small papers
throughout the country. But the
large metropolitan newspapers have
the resources to overcome these diff
cuities and to get paper at whatever
price may be asked.
1t is not just and fair, then. to the
country papers to have certain me-
tropolrtan dailies reckless in the use
to those metropolitan dslies who are
conservative in the use of print paper
and anxious not to impose unneces-
sars difficulties on. smaller papers. to
have no restrictions upon these Goal
Oil Johnnies of journalism who are
burning up paper without reason. and
for that matter. without result.
Congress could very properly
decide what size of paper should be
sent through the mails = in other
words. how many pages should be
permitted in each issue.
Congress should have no cons titu-
tional authority to limit the size of
newspapers except in so far as they
are carried through the mails.
But the Postoffice Department un-
doubtedly could refuse to accept
newspapers whose regular editions
contained more than twenty four
pages liz the weekday editions and
seventy-two pages in the Sunday edi
tions. allowing the owners of the
newspapers to devote those pages to
whatever matter they pleased
advertisements, display advertise
ments. news articles. pictures. spe-
cial articles or what not, but restrict
ing the papers to given number of
pages.
This would undoubtedly reduce the
consumption of print paper consider
ably and relieve the stress on smaller
papers throughout the country.
When we hear of papers suspend
ing all over the country. and when
fhoro 10 ncasihlv q railroad afr;Lo
coming on and the transportation of
everything, including excess paper.
will be difficult, there is no reason
why Congress should not take the
situation boldly in hand and proceed
very fairly. but very firmly. to
SOLVE it.-William Randolph Hearst
