CENSUS DELAYED
BY WAR WORKERS
Task May Not Be Finished by
Enumerators Before End
of Month.

Taking of the fourteenth decennial
census in the District of Columbia
may have to go over the whole of
next week because Of the laxity of
employees of the government in an
swering census questions.
Information reaching Robert +.
MattineIy. supervisor for the District
today indicated. he says, that the
finish of the census here is not yet
in sight. In fact there is bare pos
sibility that the census taking in
Washington may continue until the
end of January. fifteen days beyond
the time limit set by law.
This delay in the census work here
Mr.. Mattngly says. is due to several
causes. chief of which is the failure
of temporary employees of the govern
ment to answer the census questions.
The permanent government employees.
who are established in Washington.
he says. do not cause enumeratorS
any trouble. but in the case of those
usually claSSeu as war workers." he
says. there has been serious delay.
Must Enumerate All.
when our enumerators are forced
to go to a house eight or ten times
for one name or two names. it neces-
sarily delays the census taking" Mr.
MattiHgly said today. Multiply this
condition many times all over the city
and there is the reason why the cen
sus taking in the District of Columbia
has been seriously delayed. Even at
night. when many of our enumerators
work. it appears tina these govern
ment employees are trying to dodge us.
for we have left them individual CEN
sus slips and have left word for them,
