Practically everything is ready, !full more than a year's careful preparation, | for the taking of the fifteenth oensus | of the United States, beginning April 2. More than 100,000 men and women are making ready to gather complete snformation of the country concerning | nt onty the population, but also unem- | ployment, agriculture, irrigation, drain- | age, manufactures, mining and distribu- tion. | Supervisors Appointed. i The appointment of 574 supervisors, who will have immediate direction of the work, has been completed. They are being instructed by Willlam M. Steuart, director of the census, who has been engaged in the work since Jan- uary 18. Steuart will be at Cincinnati tomor- row and Tuesday, Detroit March 18 to 20, New York March 21 and 22, Boston March 23 to 25, and then will return to Wfishingwn to attend to the last de- tails. The country has been divided into 120,000 enumeration districts and each supervisor will have under him an aver- age of 175 enumerators, ranging from 30 In sparsely settled districts to 450 in large cities. New York City will have 14 supervisors and about 4,200 enumera- tors. Announcements of population will be made this year by district supervisors instead of being made public at Wash- ington. Population of each civil di- vision, that is township, precinct, county, borough or city, within a supervisor's district will be made public as soon as the enumeration is completed. Schedules will be shipped to Washing- ton where compilation of the population of States and the country as a whole will be made and the vast amount of other information compiled and pub- lished. First Unemployment Check. Unemployment is to be enumerated for the first time in the coming census. It will show the number of unemployed men and women, whether married or single, how long they have been out of ‘work, and the leading reasons for un- employment. Persons living on their income and not seeking work will not be classed as unemployed. The “day before the census is taken™ has been set | as a basis for determining unemploy- ment. Radio sets also will be counted. $167,500 DAMAGE AWARD IS SET ASIDE BY COURT Former Film Actress Sued for Per- sonal Injuries Suffered While Taking Bath in Hotel. By the Associated Press.
