CENSUS TAKERS WILL BE SWORN TO “KEEP MUM” ££* m Next May n insetth S. Wasney muff Vni’ed - The "' BSh ‘ n m , v°''i Iff 000 ‘ P,,U "’ er - start taWng the 1930 *'° r ’ next May I «’>•’ be sworn to * frecy ' M Steuart, census bureau h be known today the “‘T'f office enumerators will contain oath L that each must preserve VXrecy of information secured A X; penalty is provided for violatafraid or have the slighthesitation in answering enutnera- . auestioos frankly, bashTi e s «r mental reservation/' SteuU said "All Information obtained ‘■i'll be held confidential. ■The »king of the census next May -anises now t- proceed smoothly. Znately it will not be acompanied such scenes as were witnessed in T Ull( ev when Turks imprisoned the entire population in their houses on the day of the census." The census bureau has tentatively established enumeration districts for the taking of the census and is now making plans to employ 100.000 enumerators to work in the districts, taking s census of population, farms, mines, irrigation and drainage projects and unemployment. One month, starting May 1. 1930. is alloted Steuart to complete this tremendous task. The first population census took 13 months to count a Mttle less than 4,000,000 while the 1930 census will enumerate about 120,000.000. , , "The population of the I nited States is increasing at the rate of about 1.400,000 persons a year, or approximately one person every 28 seconds." Steuart said. "The total increase is made up of the annual excess of births over deaths, which amounts to about 1,150,000 and the excess of immigration over emigration which totals about 240,000 annually. "History records no other instance in which the population has increased so rapidly By 1930 the population will be more than 30 times as great as it was iu 1790 and nearly twice what it was in 1890. only 40 years ago." Steuart said each enumator will have about 1,800 persons to tabulate. The counters must work quickly” and accurately. They will receive about 115 to sloo each for their work. For the first time in history the country will have an accurate count of the unemployed. At present those «ut of work are estimated between 1,000,000 and 4,000,000Officials estimated the census next year would tabulate a population of about 120,000,000 people, about 6,250,tiOO farms, 14,000 mines and quarries and more than 100,000 irrigation and draining projects. o CRAIGVILLE NEWS Miss Marjorie Ginter spent a couple of days last week in Bluffton with Miss Ruby Somers.

SUMS SUPPLIED TO GIVE PEPING GREAT LIBRARY China Foundation’s Action Assures City of Cultural Center By D. Bess United Press Stuff Correspondent Peplng, China, Aug. 13- (UP)—A great government library in Peplng, with a comprehensive list of books in several languages, including Chinese and English. Is assured by the deci- ' sion of the China Foundation, the organization formed to'adminster Boxer indemnity funds returned by the United States to China, at its summer meeting. This decision was to form a real national library in Peplng, which is still the cultural capital of China, by the amalgamation of the Peplng library and the Metropolitan library, which was started several years ago by the Foundation. The new- library will be located in Pei Hail (North Lake Park) in the center << Peping. and will be known as the Peping Government Library. An additional $250,000 (Mex.) was voted for the construction fund of the library, and an additional $300,000 set aside for the purchase of more books over aperiod of four years. The Foundation at its summer meeting made new grants totalling i $2,310,000 toward the cultural development of China. The largest grant was one of $500,000 for the cnstruetion of buildings for the department of physics and chemistry of the National Research Academy in Nanking, the first important work <1 ’tie by tile Foundation in the new capital. By a unanimous vote, the Foundation decided to withdraw its support from the China institute in the United States, which has been under the di-

you get wo/ie with DUNLOPS YOU may think all standard tires are about the same. We did, too, until we checked into the tire business. Then we found that Dunlop had pioneered almost every important tire improvement... that Dunlop founded the pneumatic tire industry ... more than 41 years ago ... that Dunlop has j:;95,OOO,OOO in resources...employs over 45,000 skilled craftsmen to produce Dunlop tires. Once we studied tires, we knew Dunlops were better. But Dunlop gave us added proof. to stand oron it Sd SB Dunlop is the only man- * ufacturer who goes to the extra expense of I sting only long staple Egyptian cotton, just to make a sturdier tire carcass. And this extrastrong cotton is woven into cords in Dunlop’s own mills...by Dunlop's own skilled workmen. Combine this sturdy tire base with the Dunlop Tread —the toughest, longest-wearing rubber compound ever known ... and you have two of the reasons for Dunlop’s longer life. Al every step of production Dunlop's greater experience... Dunlop’s skilled workmen...combine to produce tires that will stand even the hardest kind of abuse. Come in...see these tires for yourself... one inspection will convince you of their extra value. Adams County Auto Co. * 9
