AGE DISTRIBUTION
UNDER CENSUS
Is ANNOUNCED
Announcement By Census Bureau
Shows Large Number OF
Centenarians In the
Country.

Washington, D. c. - The Depart
ment of Commerce, through the Blu
reau of the Census, has issued state
ment giving the distribution of the
population of the United States by age
periods, as shown by the returns OF
the fourteenth decennial census, taken
as Of January l, 1920, with compare
tive figures for earlier census years.
The total population according to
the last census, 1O5,71O,62O, included
II ,573,230 children under 5 years of
age, Of whom 2,257,255 were infants
under L. The children under formed
1913 per cent. of the total population,
as against 11.6 per cent. in 1910, 12.1
per cent. in 1900, 1872 per cent in 1890,
and 1873 per cent. in 1880. The percent
age for infants under i was 81 in 1920,
as against "a in 1910. The decrease
in the proportions of young children
and infants between 1910 and 1920 is
doubtless due, in whole or in large
part, to the.decline in the birth rate.
The proportions of persons at and
above the age of rs has become larger
from census to census since 1880, the
increase between 1910 and 1920 having
been especially noteworthy in the case
Of persons As and over.
The number Of centenarians report
ed in 1920 was 4,267, as against g.
555 in 1910. OF the persons reported
as centenarians in 1920, 1861 wer men
and 2,706 were women. THE greater
longevity of women is also shown by
the fact that, although the males out
numbered the females in the popula-
ton as a whole, the women FREEDOM
mated In each Of the Swear age
periods above rs in both 1920 and
1910. The census takers had no means
of. verifying the ages Of the persons
enumerated by them, and consequent
ly the age returns, especially for CEN
are not absolutely accur-
ate. 1t is probable that the number of |
has ben somewhat over
states at every census.

Detroit-E. +. Cradle, president
United Brotherhood Of Maintenance

amalgamation spirit of the triennial

Cradle is the man who ignored the

proval of his grand lodge, 10 call q
strike of the 100000 maintenance Of
way men at the time the 400 GOO shop
men and their allies walked o,t July

same grievance of slashcd wages,
work farmed out by the railroad com
panies and working conditions made
harder by order of the u. S. rail la
Dor board.
When the convention by three to
one vote passed the amalgamation re-
solution over CRADLES opposition his
doom was sealed. Swept away with
him are the IA vice presidents at an

place are put five vice presidents at
