Hopkins Perpetrafing
Census Fraud, Says
Senator Tobey
PIon Of Mailing in Doto
Offers No Anonymity,
He Declares

Another oratorical fusillade by
Senator Tobey, Republican. Of New
Hampshire, whistled over the heads
of Americas marching census army
today.
In broadcast last night, Senator
Tobey, who has been waging war
against census questions on personal
income, charged Secretary of Com
merce Hopkins with perpetrating q
fraud" on the country by announc-,
ing that persons who wished to keep,
income data secret might mail the
information unsigned to Washing.
ton in franked envelope instead Of
telling the enumerator.
Actually, Senator Tobey said, this
method provides no anonymity. The
blank, which must be obtained from
the enumerator, contains two spaces.
he said, in which the enumerator
will make notations enabling tabu-
lators to trace the anonymous" in
come information to the person sup
plying it.
Again counseling persons to re-
fuse answers to the income ques-
tlons on the ground that they vio-
late privacy, Senator Tobey an
nounced he had introduced bill to
rescind the 6O-day Jail penalty
which may be imposed for failure to
supply census information. Pre-
viously, he tried to have the income
questions stricken from the sched-
ules, but Senate inaction frustrated
the attempt.

Representative Wood, Democrat,

The amendment giving employers
the express right to petition for

'cipally civil. but he assisted Mr..

have rendered during my tenure in
the district attorneys Office. You
have my best wishes for continued
and greater success, of which your

turn to private practice; voiced his
sincere gratitude for your many

Of New York, Z subcommittee mem
Der. said there was nothing 50 far
to indicate any reason for adding
to the budgeted figures.
He joined Chairman Woodrum,
Democrat, Of Virginia in predict
ing that the House would insist on
retaining the requirement in pre-
vious relief bills that the w. P. A.
apportion its funds In advance over
q 12-month period. This is de-
signed to prevent the agency from
spending all its money in a few
months and then asking for more.
Representative Cochran, Demo-
crat, Of Missouri, saying that the
w. P. A. had cut its rolls to 2,100, 900
for April by looping of 100000 per-
sons employed in March, proposed
yesterday supplemental relief ap-
preparation of $38,O00,O00 for the
current fiscal year. He said Col
Harrington had advised him that
this amount would be needed, in
addition to the 81 ATT 900 900 already
voted the Work Relief Administra-
ton for the current year, II the
rolls were to be kept at the pres
ent level until the year end-June 30
"The cities and States say they
will be unable to carry any addi-
tional load" Mr.. Cochran declared
(To stay within appropriations
w. P. A. has been cutting its
rolls. The aim has been to bring
the rolls down to about 1900, 900
by June 30-a cut of roughly
100000 as compared with the
total of project workers on
March 20. Col. Harrington has
set the April quota of jobs at
| 2,120,000, and he said yesterday
that he had made no final de-
cisions on exact figures for May
and June.
From Representative Voorhis,
Democrat, of California came g
proposal that a supplemental re.
lief appropriation of $68,8OO, 900 be
provided. This, he said, would keep
100000 on the rolls from now
