BACKED BY IOWA ENGINEERS.
Plan to Create Department Of Public

Washington, Jan. 23.-Backed by the
Iowa Society Of Engineers and numer-
Gus engineering organizations turnout
the country, the agitation to create q
department OF public works Is to be
heard in congress. The recent session
Of the engineers Of the country held
here resulted in some startling dis
closures of the prodigious expenditure
Of money that might be saved II all the
engineering activities Of the govern
ment were consolidated in the public
works department.
I'VE will bring pressure to bear from
every state in the union" one Of tho
spokesman for the assembled engineers
declared, ION senators and representa-
tives to pass the public works measure.
High officials in the government real
lie the practicability OF the scheme.
Brigadier General Marshall, head of the
construction division of the war de-
partment. told me the saving we could
effect by this change in government
machinery would not be less than mil
lions Of dollars.
I'VE engineers have long been dis
turbed over the way in which the gov
eminent is literally throwing away
money on engineering because Of the
duplication Of effort. For instance.
there are twenty three different bu-
reaus Of the government making maps.
There are sixteen which have. IN en-
cheering department which take IN
interest in waterways. There are ak
teen more with engineering Depart

could 30 on giving Illustration after
illustration of this sort, but perhaps
the most convincing illustration 64 all
is that Of the ten great departments OF
tho government, nine have engineering
departments
Now, all Of those engineers should
be in one department, with minimum
force necessary for the total work to
be done, and no overlapping and waste
effort. That should he tho Depart
ment Of public works. which we suggest
in the bill introduced in the house for
us by Representative Reavis, Of Me-
braska. The simple system would be
to make the present interior depart.

I'VE find that In Some districts 4
will be necessary to postpone tho emu

lions. There has bsen no opposition
to furnishing the information request.
ed by tho enumerators.
1.-THE supervisors report the compile.
ton Of the enumeration In many dis
tricts. and as rapidly as the enumera.
tors turn In their portfolios they are
being examined in the office OF the
supervisors and are being put In shape
to come to Washington. The super.

fore naturally expect a large amount
OF work to reach the office in WASH
inston during the latter part Of this
month or the first part Of February,
but as a general rule the enumeration
Will be completed thruout the entire
country by Feb. I. It will be some
time, however, before It will be fin

postponed on account Of climatic con-
ditions.
I'VE are now organizing a force Of
clerks who, will be equipped to ex-
anime the schedules as rapidly as
they are received from the supervisors.
These clerks will make preliminary
count OF the population. This prelimi.
nary count will be made public as rap
idly as the totals for the cities and
the minor civil divisions are obtained.
The population of the cities will be
announced first. We hope that the
total population Of the country will
be known in September or October Of
this year, and the population Of the
cities should all be announced by May
