CENSUS IS DELAYED
Enumeration of City to Be
Continued.

The census enumeration Of IN
dianapolis, which was to have been
completed Wednesday, will be con-
tinued indefinitely, Delbert o. Will
meth, census supervisor of Marion
county, announced this morning. A
great deal of difficulty in finding
people at home has delayed the
census takers, Wilmeth said. When
the last census was taken it was
not customary for women to work
away from home as it is now, and
the e~numerators experienced little
difficulty in finding some one to
interview.
Spring work on the farms also has
delayed completion of the rural
enumeration, according to Edward
G.. Schaub. assistant supervisor, in
charge Of the rural districts. The
f1fteen-day period, which was
thought to be sufficient time in
which to complete the work, has
proved insufficient.

TO TEST BAN
ON CANDIDATES
Six Prepare to File Suit
After Being Barred
From Ballot.
BLANKS FILLED WRONG
Action to Determine Rights
of Vote Commissioner
Is Sought.

Dropped from the primary cleo
ton ballot for failure to fill out their
declaration blanks correctly, six can
didates today we're preparing for
court battles to test the right of the

election laws bearing on manner of
filling out candidacy blanks, at least
two Of those ousted may coordinate
by filing suit before Circuit Judge
Harry o. Chamberlin to mandate
the election commissioner to rein
state their names as candidates, it
was indicated. :
Election laws, 1t was pointed out,
never have been tested in this re-
spect, and in the judgment of
numerous persons, specify no re-
course for commissioners against
candidates who file improperly. -
In two MISUNDERSTANDING A.
GroSsart, candidate for county audi
tor, and Paul Russo, for county
commissioner-errors were made
when the two failed to designate
on their blanks their respective pre-
cincts. It would be the purpose of
suits, it was indicated, to test
whether this is sufficient reason for
disqualification.
Those disqualified are: Audley
Durham, 1924 East Seventy-flfth
street, for county council of the
Fourth district; Isidor Wulfson, for
Center township justice of the peace,
both Republicans. and Grossart,
5148 North Meridian street, for au-
ditor, and Russo. 4016 C%arrollton
