ceilings will halt soaring retail

ceilings on fresh fish are those on
several varieties OF tuna.
Concerned over skyrocketing
prices on the fish market, OPA
officials have been conducting a

hoped that the new ceilings will be

for their banquet and what was to
be their regular monthly meeting
at the American Legion Hall, II S.

Instead of $50 who had signified
their intention OF attending the af-

lis guests. The Legion hall was
not large enough TO accommodate
all the banqueters. Those who
were not served there, were taken
to Hotel Huron, where they found
dinner awaiting them. After the

Census
Being Started

Enumerators will begin the an
nual school census Wednesday and
will continue the count until ths
last day OF May. Instead OF listing
all those from five to 20 years OF
age, as in past years, enumerators
will list all persons in the district
from birth to 20 years of age. This
is the requirement OF the new
state school census law.
There will be seven enumerators
in the field. Two will work in
the first ward. one in each OF the
other wards and one in the district
outside the city. Oflcials estimate
that the census this year will ap-
proach 5000 names as compared
with 1900 last year. The law re-
quires that the census be taken
the last 90 days in May. and would
have been started today except for
the steady downpour OF rain.
