THE LOWDOWN FROM HICKORY GROVE —————— Anybody who has been kinda drifting along and not paying too much attention to what is going on down on the prodigal Poto- mac, they can now read the New Census figures—and commence to ponder. And any pondering to be done, should start pronto. After Nov. 5th, it will be a use- less kind of occupation. The census figures tell the story—plain as the nose on Mr. Durante’s face. Of the 48 states and the District of Columbia, the champion gainer in population is the District of Columbia. In 10 years the population there, has increased 36 per cent. And brother, every one of these folks are on your payroll. And none of ‘em produce anything unless maybe you can call producing their expense account each month, as producing something. We gained 7 per cent in pop- ulation in the whole U. S. A. in 10 years, but it now take 36 per cent more people in Washing- ton, to watch us. Anybody who has been think- ing that whatever is troubling us will blow over, and everything will be O.
