MILITARY CENSUS STILL HELD UP Blanks for Enumerators to Work With Have Not Arrived. The task of making a military sur- vey of Killingly continued to be held up Thursdey on account of failure eof the blanks to be used by the enumer- etors arriving. First Selectman Joha .

This idea is not in ac- cordance with the facts. There s nothing in thke blanks-that any per- son_ will be asked to fill out that pl a person to military service. The intent of the survey is to ascer- tain the man power of Connecticut and to classify that man power in the interest of the state. Such informa- tion as is written into the blanks will be kept secret. The enumsrators are not recruiting officers in a sense of the word and their work will be made easier if Killingly’s male citizens keep that in mind.
