1t is possible that the temporary Or

This is sometimes done, especially
when a ma of Sells prominence is
selected by the executive committee
for temporary chairman. However.
this is merely surmise, and when

on some one else for chairman.
There is some talk of having the
convention indorse or recommend
some one for governor to the party.
The candidate for governor is to be
chosen later, and in reality this con-

A number of probable candidates

ANNEXATION WILL HELP
CITY in 1920 CENSUS
Added Population Will Show in
Observation-Disclosures Will
Be Tabulated.

If all legal requirements for the
annexation of Chattanooga suburbs
are complied with and perfected be-
! fore the publication Of the federal
census report, Chattanooga still has
! chance to have her true population
shown in the government census in a
| footnote.
| A copy of a letter to this effect
| from the director of the census bu-
reau, Sam Rogers, to Congressman
John A. Moon was received Friday
afternoon by Paul. j. Kreusi of this
| city
Mr.. Rogers also explains in the let
| ter that If Mr. Kruesi so desires the
census bureau can furnish him tab
ulatiOn of the population and indus
tries in the territory surrounding
Chattanooga. This Information may
be used by Chattanooga civic bodies
as they see fit. The advantage of
having information of this kind
would be that substantial govern
ment figures could be used in adVer-
Using matter sent out by Chatta-
nooga manufacturers.
The letter in full received by Mr..
Kruesi from Mr.. Moon, which is a
copy of Director Rogers letter, is
as follows:
my Dear Mr. Moon: If the legal
requirements for the annexation of ter
rltory to the city of Chattanooga are
perfected before the publication of the
final census reports, we will, OF course,
put a footnote on the table calling at
tention to the population of the terri
tory annexed since January /. This
will enable the city of Chattanooga to
made good its claims for additional
population at the date when the an
neXation became effective. We realize,
OF course, that the population of Chat
tanooga announced as of January LIST
will be used for the next ten years, so
that It is only just that we furnish an
official statement showing what the
population of the city Is including the
territory annexed after the enumeration
was made
at is possible that the matter could
be arranged to the satisfaction of those
interested in the addition to Chatta-
nooga if the bureau of census furnished
Mr.. Kruesi with tabulation of the
population and industries of the terri
tory surrounding the city, to be used
In such manner as he sees flt. While
the data will not be carried in the off,
cial reports on metropolitan districts, 1t
could be. used If necessary to demon
strate the great development that has
occurred. and | believe it would go far
toward satisfying the demands for in
formation OF this character. If this sug-
gestlon appeals to the persons inter-
ester II will be necessary for them 10
call our attention to the matter after
the publication of the figures for manu-
facturer and population for this CEN
sus. We expect to have the detail
figures for population ready for distri-
button during the spring and summer.
but probably the data for manufactures
will not be available until the spnng
OF next year.
Yours very truly.
