EVANSVILLE FEARS LOSS IN "40 GENSUS

EVANSVILLE, Ind, March 11.Fear that the 1940 census will : this city as low as fifth in iz among Indiana cities has | ity officials and Chamber of Commerce directors to discuss the advisability of immediate annexation of Evansville’s suburban areas.

Robert E. Eckler, in charge of the census in this district, has advised officials that the population in urban Evansville probably will not show an increase over the 1930 census, and possibly will show a decrease because of widespread suburban development.

Recently, Federal authorities were requested to allow census takers to include metropolitan Evansville, or the adjoining suburban areas, in the city census. The request was refused. : It is possible to annext the areas through a City Council ordinance. However, if 75 per cent of the property owners in the affected areas sign remonstrating petitions within 10 days after final enactment of thé ordinance, the plan can be defeated. Even if the courts rule against annexation, City officials say, it would be after the census has started and the suburban areas would have been. included in the

GERMAN REVOLT HELD UNLIKELY

Nazi-Soviet Pact Weakened

ler’'s rise to power, Mrs. Eva Lips told a Kirshbaum Open Forum last night. Mrs. Lips asserted that an “underground survey” . conducted by anti-Hitler forces in Germany showed that 74 per cent of the people are opposed to Hitler, but she said this did not mean there would be an uprising. The Nazi-Communist pact weakened the opposition to the Hitler regime, she said, by drawing away the Communist element and weakening Socialist opposition. Further, she declared, a large number of Germans recall the devastating effect of the last war’s defeat on the German economy and are determined that this war must be won and Hitler disposed of later. In answer to a question, Mrs. Lips, an “Aryan” refugee from Germany on “ethical grounds,” declared that the United States ought not enter the war unless it seemed certain that the British Empire was ready to crumble and Hitler to dominate the world. “The great century of America has just begun and more important than the neutrality zone around the continent is the invisible ‘Maginot Line’ we have erected against foreign ‘isms’ The ‘Wolf Age’ foreseen by Oswald Spengler in 1923 has begun in Europe. »
