w. M. Steuort, IS, Dies;
Retired Census Director

William Mott Steuart, 95, for
mer Director of the Census, who
during his many years with the
bureau helped it grow from a
national nose-count to a giant
profile of the citizens of the
United States, died Friday at his
home at 3725 Morrison street
NV.
Commerce Department off,
cials declared he had made his
bureau a model organization
when he retired on March 81,
1888, after IL years service as
director.
Mr.. Steuart had been asso-
ciated with the bureau from
1880. when he got his first job
there as a messenger to help f.
nance his law degree. Accord
ing to a popular story, his first
duty was to stand over an official
and blot his signature as he
signed his daily letters.
Mr.. Steuart became head OF
the census of manufactures in
1890, a post he held for about
ten years, after an interval OF
law practice. From 1902 to 1911
he served as chief statistician for
manufactures. He was appointed
assistant director in 1919 and
director in 1921.
Mr.. Steuart was away from
the bureau for a two-year Pc
riod from 1917 to 1919 while
serving as secretary and statis-
tician Of the United States Tariff
Commission.
Whisked Through Blockade
Born in Corpus Christi, Tex,
in 1861, he was brought to
Washington by his mother in a
sailing vessel through a war
blockade. He graduated from
Columbian College, now George
Washington University, with an
LIB. degree in 1884, and an
LIN. in 1885. He practiced law
in. Washington. Maryland and
Michigan
1t was estimated that it would
now take 20 or 30 years to COM
'plete the census tabulation If 1t
were done by the staff and
machinery used when Mr.. Steu-
art went to work at the bureau
in 1880.
A man who consistently Armed
interviewers questions about
himself in questions about
his job, he used new machines
and developed new methods for
handling the ever-growing CEN
Isus job. Special electrically

killing"

imagined a girl who finds herself
exactly in the middle of a crisis
where she has to make a choice.
The choice, of course. Is between
her professional self and her pri-
vate one.
"The latter, by the way, is the
under-developed one which is the
dramatic f1aw-if not exactly the
tragic one-in the makeup of
"a lot Of people I've SEEM"
Miss Kirk, as a writer, Is I'M
der no illusion that either her
characters or situation have a
|dewy freshness. unless we are
careful" she says with the can
dor that is chronic with her,
I'VE could lapse into soap opera.
But, if you are aware Of that
Ipitfall, you have a chance to
avoid it by writing with the
speciality that eludes mere
formal"
Miss Kirk. who always re-
members the Raleigh's almondine
sole, bears other tidings more
closely identified with her regu-
lar vocation.
Going back to last May, her
last time around at the Statler,
she recalls that this correspond
ent suggested a Noel Coward
ballad, a little known one, that
she might like to put in her
repertory.
WELL" she reports, IT looked
for this Never Again. I looked
everywhere, but I never could
find it. A few weeks ago, was
singing in Reno and who gave a
party but Noel Coward? I went,
and I walked right up to him
and asked him about Never
Again He could not have regis
tered greater establishment.
Where did you ever hear of
that?' he demanded to know. It's
one of my favorites. but to my
knowledge I'm the only one that
ever liked it. Now that you men,
ton it. it is a perfect Kirk song.
I can't think of anyone I would
rather have sing it,"
Mr.. Coward promised to dig
up copy and send it to Miss
Kirk. She's waiting anxiously to
get it, m9le than ever now that
the composer himself thinks it
would be something special for
her.
A comparatively recent addi-
ton to her reportory, you might
want to know. IS creeping up to
the top of her impact on audi
ences. The new one is Hi Lii, I"
which is the sweetest song of
heartbreak she has run across.
Two Of the most delighted with
her version of it are Bronislau
Kaper. who composed the music,
and Helen Deutsch, who wrote
the lyrics.
She is also enchanted with the
little Kaper ballad in THE Glass
Slipper" the one that goes,
Nothing is forever; always is
la lie"
But a girl can't get too many
|of these in a sophisticated
|repertory.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-03-07

has been. And, if there is any
Justice, always will be.
Miss Kirk has scaled herself
up artistically-"up" may not
be the worldly becoming a
writer. 1t seems this is becoming
something of a habit with act
ress-singers. The last one re-
ported here was 10 Hurt, OF
Damn Yankees" who is writing
saleable poetry in her spare time.
Miss Kirk is the prose type
writer. With Mark BRANDED as
her collaboration, she has written
a television play which will be
produced next month on Front
Row Center. It has a working
title, 1.-THE Human Touch" which
may be changed and it seems
Madison avende is quite excited,
as it should be, over a new writer
with as piquant name as Miss
Kinks.
Miss Kirk, who Is singing at
the Statler's Embassy Room the
next three weeks. is naturally
even more excited. Two Holly
wood studios already have mani
tested an interest in the script
and Miss Kirk, aware of what
happened to Paddy Chayevsky
("Marty"). is pretty tremulous
about the future.
It would be ironic, she is pre-
pared to think. If she should
finally work out a deal with
Hollywood as a writer, or CO.
writer. They have been toying
with the idea Of getting together
professionally for years but never
did the right pictures come
along.
Miss Kirk, than whom no girl
would want more not to be mis-
understood, modestly insists she
is no more than a collaboration
in the writing of "The Human
Touch"
MY contribution, really" she
says, ais mostly the idea and
continuous suggestions durin g
the actual writing, which was
done by Mark. The fact is that
when I discussed the idea with
an agent, my thought was to get
q professional as collaboration"
Miss Kirk. despite her dis
avowal of writing instinct, has
behaved like a writer in her new
venture.
