Washington, Oct. 4.-Decreast
during the last decade in the average
number of persons in family anc
total dwellings in the United Stats:
is indicated in comparative statistics
made public today by the census bu,
reau. The 1920 census showed, a
statement said, that the nations pop
ulation was grouped into 24,351, ,676
families, residing in 20,697,204
dwellings, making an average Of 4.3
persons to a family and 81 persons
to a dwelling. ..-. ~.
In 1910 the average number Of
persons to a family was As and to
a dwelling So. The average in both
cases was still higher in 1SS0-fve
persons to family and '5.6 persons
to a dwelling-and has declined
steadily since.
The census bureau applies the term
family" to a group of persons
whether related by blood or not, liv-
ing together in one household. One
person living alone is counted as a
family, while the occupants of hotel
or institution, regardless of their
number, are considered one family.
An entire apartment house, although
the home of many families, consti-
tutes only one dwelling in the GEN.
sus bureaus classification.
AS shown by the 1920 census, the
average size of families was greatest
in Southern states and smallest in
Western states, the bureau announc-
ed. The number of persons to a
dwelling was greatest in New Eng
land and Middle Atlantic states and
smallest in Western states. Among
individual states the average to a
family in 1920 ranged from 3.5 in
Nevada to five in North Carolina, and
to dwelling from 81 in Nevada to
7.8 in New York.

Undoubtedly, as has been
our custom in the past, the
American cards will be laid
upon the table, faces upward.
But they will hardly be joined
by the cards of other nations.
That is hardly TO be expected
of men who have been trained
in an atmosphere of secret dis
plomacy. The American dele
gates will skirmish in the open
against adversaries who are
concealed in a fog of doubt
and uncertainty.
Then there is another in
fluence--a sinister one-which
will harass the American dele
gates, and may even attempt
10 fog the issue among the
foreigners. Munitions manu-
facturers and others who profit
from warfare do not want per-
petual peace. International
financiers of Wall street are of
this class. Ii the conference
puts an end TO warfare il also
puts an end 10 billions upon
billions of fat profits that
would otherwise flow into the
swollen pockets of these fell
lows. They will do their ut
most TO prevent a lasting peace.

/, Future Prospects

Since the best residential section of
the city has been building towards
this addition for years, and since it Is
the only logical direction for il TO con-
tinue, it stands to reason that it will
pass through Lakeview Addition.
Since the city has grown until the best
residential section is now almost out
to the Addition and since Amarillo is
not going to quit growing. it stands to
reason that Lakeview Addition is the
next logical building site for the best
residential section. Since Amarillo
property has increased in value from
400 to GOO per cent during the past
twenty years, and since il is still grow
ing and the future is now brighter
than ever before, it stands to reason
that property bought before It is de-
veloped should be a good investment
for anyone. Since the price on lots

in Lakeview Addition is SO reasonable;
and since the terms are so easy, how
can you hesitate with clear con-
science If you ever expect to own
property in Amarillo.
This addition is now ready for your
inspection. The streets have been
graded, and marked at ever corner
an advantage which no other section
Of the city enjoys. City water mains
have been laid and water is now avail
able in the addition. Electric light
poles are now on thu ground, and both
electricity and gas will be available be-
fore the completion Of the first build
ing; and contracts have been let for
three modern homes upon which work
is now being done. and contracts for
three others will be let within the next
few days.
