The United states had 3 pcpu-

years than In any other like pc
ri0d III history, the u. s. Census
Bureau announced today in max
ing public the official report Of
the 1880 census. The total In
crease over 1920 was 16,987 $40
the nation growing at the rate
Of 16.1 per cent.
The report revealed that New
York, California. Texas. Florida,
Michigan and New Jersey had
gathered the population h0nors
Of the nation. New York again
recorded the largest population
OF any State but California, sur
priSingly, recorded the greatest
numerical gain els well as the
greatest rate Of growth.
First II States
The first 10 states of the
Union IN population were: New

What Is the cause Of the pres
ent heat wave and drOught1
I The innied ediate answer that the
scientific student of the weather
has to offer Is thfB:S
The heat wave II due to the
peculiar distribution of the at
mospheric pressure over North
America and the adjacent Allan
tic and Pacific Oceans.
BY that we mean that the
southern or near-tropical sections
81 this region Of land and wafer
have had 3 predominant high
pressure, while the more north
erly sections have had 4 relatively
low pressure.
Now, the currents Of air flow
from the areas of high pressure
| 70 those Of low pressure. Hence
there has been IN llribrOken
sequence of sOutl1erly winds,
which means hot winds, blowing
up north. Thus We have been
virtually under tropical condi-
tions.
ri Might Mean Cold
Another paradox ernerges here.
The low pressure state Of the
northern regions might sometimes
be Of q character that brings on
rain and cold air. However. such
4 situation does not exist at
present.
I mean that the northern low
pressure has not been Of the sort
that can produce 8 succession Of
extra-troplcal cyclones or storm
centers. In summer such storm
centers result IN rain and draw
ling down Of colder air, thus
preventing drOughts, and causing
frequent breaks In high tempefa-
lures.
what Is noteworthy In the
present iunCtlare Is the flatness
Of the heat areas, from South to
| North. There Is no sharp con-
/ tact between the hot and the
cold wind areas, and 1t IS such
1a contact that results IN summer
storms.
The heat wave and drought We
are passing through viii be
broken up when there IS Z lower.
ing Of pressure over the southern
areas. Then the wind drifts win
| be reversed from scutherIlly To
lnorthernly.
| When that happens, normal
summer rains will follow and
cooler weather.
But when? Who KmeWss
There Is no way to indicate
when such . welcome change
might occur.
] Considering the random nature
| Of the corelating circumstances
OF which the present situation Il
| an effect. one expects that either
10 West Indian hurricane or Z
deep extra tropical cyclone oVef
| the northern sections, or some
other disturbance Of this kind
would break the flat pressure
condition and restore normal con,
ditions.
So long as the present fial
phase continues. We cannot ex
i pect any radical change.
Searching for reHnOter and
more fundamental causes. 1t is
1 true that SunspOts' activity, the
tidal actions upon the earth and
such coSEnic agencies affect the
earth's atmosphere TO some en-.
tent.

Moves Out Furniture
 To Make Wine Cellar

Mrs. McNanara of Il Oak street complained to Officers James Sulli- van and Daniel J. Cosgrove last night that Sebastian Magoto, owner of property at 3SS Elm street, had moved furniture owned by the con- plainant's daughter, Mrs. Patrick Mcclure, into one room in the lat ter's tenement to make a wine eel la for another tenant.
 Magoto told the officers that he ordered Mrs. Mcclure to move to 3S6 Elm street three weeks ago as he wanted her basement tenement for a cellar. Yesterday, an inspector from the health department, ordered him to get the furniture out of she way and clean up the tenement, and he therefore felt justified in doing so.
 In police court yesterday the sit hation was aired during the trial of the case of Henry McNamara, son of the complainant. who had trouble Monday night with Magoto and a tenant in the house.

a little horseplay when both drivers at fault. They finally decided that in view of the fact that no damage was done the argument was futile and without any further harangue got into their respective cars and proceeded on their way leaving the crowd to guess which was wrong and which was right.
 After a few minutes discussion of the matter those assembled de- cided that it did not make any diff ference to them and the road was finally cleared and the atm mosphere was again serene and peaceful in the district.
 Rumored Road Repairs
 A gang of men from the state highway department are again at work stalking off the side of the road along Worthington ridge. This action it is understood is in accord ance with a plan to widen this sec- ton of road to a width of 66 feet.
 Such a plan would mean the elimination Of many of the stately and ancient trees that adorn this passage and it is believed that such a course IS quite likely to arouse the ire of many of the streets residents.
 It is rumored that one of the resi- dents has refused to allow the work men to drive any stakes on his property and that he is contemplat- ing court action to prevent the con- tinuance of the work.
 Card Enthuiasts to Meet
 The proposed card players league is gaining considerable backing ac- cording to the latest reports from those who have been charged with it's inception and arrangements have reached the stage where definite plans are likely to be made at any time
 A meeting has been called at the Tabs hall for next Tuesday night and all persons who can guarantee a team of 12 players are requested 10 attend in the hope that plans for a schedule that will continue through out the winter may be drawn up.
 John Conlin has been approached on the matter and has stated that he would most certainly have team in the league if it was formed.
 Large Grape Harvest
 Farmers in this vicinity report that larger grape harvest than last year is expected. The quality of the grape is also somewhat superior to that of last years product according to most of the growers.
 Many of the grape growers have already picked their vines and others will have done so within the next few days. They report a ready mar ket for the product and the price is likely to be about on a par with that of last year.
 Funeral of Mrs. Haigis
 The funeral of Mrs. Huga Haigis, Kensington resident, who died at her home Monday morning, was held at 3 o'clock this afternoon at Erwin Memorial chapel. Rev. Theodore A. Greene, pastor of the First Congre- gational church of New Britain, of ficiated and burial was in Fairview cemetery in New Britain.
 Grange Meets
 Members of Berlin Grange turned out in large numbers to attend the regular meeting of that organization which was held last night in Grange hall on Pennington avenue.
 Berlin's Girl and Boy Scouts were guests of the local organization and attended in uniform. Various forms of the scout work were demonstrated to the Grangers and proved a source of great interest to all who were present.

 Auto N1ishap
 A wet pavement caused by a heavy mist, which started to fall about 9 o'clock this morning. result ed in an accident when a sedan driven by Robert Loerewoa of 17Os Howard avenue, New Haven, skid ded along the road and crashed into the rear end of a Connecticut con- pany bus that had stopped to pick up a passenger directly in front of the Town hall.
 The bus was being driven by John Lynch of 72 Black Rock av, enue, New Britain and was pro- ceeding from Meriden when it halted at the bus stop to allow a woman passenger to get on. The first in- tinlation to the bus driver or pas sengers that anything was wrong was when they heard the crash as the front of the sedan and the bus came together.
 Several women passengers were frightened for the moment. After the New Haven mans car struck the bus it careened over to the left hand side of the road on account of the slippery condition of the road but was finally brought to stop with out further damage.
