The population of New Castle
county is 77,901 and Sussex 34,776,
making the population of the
State 145,667. The census ten
years ago showed a population Of
63,315 in New Castle county, 29,-
SO4 in Kent and 81 ,696 in Sussex,
amounting to 124, ,814 in the State
This shows an increase in popula-
tion in the ten years of 20,853.
New Castle county now numbers
10.135 more than Kent and Sussex
combined. This increase has been
mainly in the city of Wilmington,
which has been 11,744. Our in
crease has not been as rapid as
some of the States, but makes a
gratifying showing.
Our enumerators have added ten
more to the population of our town
making it $500 instead of 2490 as
we published two or three weeks
ago. These ten are parties whom

young lawyer aged about 26 years,
and a member of the New Castle

mitted two years ago. His is the
sixth death which has occurred

as follows, in the order of their
deaths: Samuel Harrington, Chan

brain which speedily caused his
death. His remains were largely
attended to the family burying
place at Kenton on Sunday.

The Census Returns.-It's a
strange enactment of Congress
that required all the census enum-
orators Of Kent County to meet in
Dover to correct their list, strange
for the reason no one living in
either extreme of the county is
going to the trouble and expense
Of a trip to Dover just for the
purpose (having been missed by
the enumerators) of having their
name placed upon a census blank.
If instead, the law required the

spective districts it would certain
ly be more likely to accomplish its
object. AS per announcement in

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Va, September 16:-Undaunt-
ed by the refusal of the War Depart
ment to permit the erection of wharf
by the Sun Oil Co. of Philadelphia
the American Oil Co. yesterday made
application to the Board of County
Supervisors for a permit to run lines
from the Potomac River to their plant
in Rosslyn in order that they might
pump oil and gasoline from barges to
their plant.
Application for the permit was made
by T. j. O'Connel, chief engineer OF
the American Oil Co., and was taken
under advisement by the board, MEM
bers Of whom stated that the PROPOSE
ton would have Ito be looked over"
OConnel revealed that his company
proposed to erect an unloading wharf
a short distance from the one proposed
by the Sun Oil Co, in fact upon prop
erty to be acquired from c. H Great
house, the same owner with whom the
Sun Oil Co. had an agreement TO pur-
chase his land provided the wharf per-
NIT could be obtained.
When questioned after he left the
board room, OConnell stated that since
the board of supervisors had granted
permit to the Sun Oil Co. for the erec-
tion of a plant and the American Oil
Co. already had their plant and now
wants only a permit for the laying of
their pipes, he does not see how the
permit can be refused by the county
governing body.
The question of what the War Depart
ment will do is one yet to be decided,
he said. stating that the application
Yesterday was but the first move in the
efforts of his company to take adVan-
tage of more economic means OF trans,
noTfation. The lines, if erected, would
cross the Lee Highway and then fol-
low through several streets to reach the
conpany's plant.

PLAN
SUPPORT IS URGED
Commissioner Holds Aliens
Would Not Replace U. S.
Workers Under System.

No American citizens would be thrown
out of work by aliens under plan for
extension of the principle Of selective
immigration outlined in radio address
last night by Harry Hull, commissioner
general of immigration.
MY appeal TO you, my countrymen,"
Hull added, SIS that we follow this far
seeing vision of our President, so that
in the future immigrants shall not en-
ter the country who are unneeded or
undesirable -
Hull said 241,7OO immigrants entered
the United States last year and that 1T
was a reasonable estimate that more
than SO per cent of them ARE today
displacing American citizens who are
gainfully employed"
scientific selective immigration is a
far-reaching, progressive move 20 solve
our unemployment and farm problem"
he asserted.
IF we had had selective inmigra-
ton so years ago." he added, there
would have been no underworld prob
lem of the magnitude nor character
that our peace officers now have on
their hands. And while the criminal
is primarily a social menace and should
be dealt with first as such, he also
presents an economic problem Of great
Importance"
His address followed the announce
ment last week by President Hoover,
that applications for future immigration
visas would be rejected If the appli-
cants were likely to become public
charges upon reaching this country
and add to the unemployment total.
He quoted Mr.. Hoover as saying In
his last message to Congress that "our
present problem is to formulate meth
cd in which limited number of immi-
grants whom we do welcome shall be
adapted to our national settings and
our national needs.
