WASHINGTON. Oct. 7.—'l‘he bulk-
of its work completed. the Census
Bureau at 4 o'clock this afternoon
will announce the total number of
inhabitants ~in Continental United
States. indications are that the com-
plete census, the fourteenth in the
country’s history will show a total
population for the United States ex~
elusive of insular possessions of ap
proximately 105,700,000. Nearly 12,-
2'50;000 persons are estimated to be
living in island possessions, making
a total of 117.950.000 persons under
the protection of the Stars and
Stripes
These estimates are based on a
recent official announcement that the
census when 85 per cent. complete,
gave a population of 90,586,742 for
that proportion of the country.
The relative growth of the nation
from 1900 to 1910 was 21 per cent.
but this rate is expected to be cut
to at least 15 per cent. this year.
chiefly. Census Bureau ofiicials say.
through stoppage of immigration dur-
ing the war. and by the heavy emi-
gration during that period. ,
One of the striking developments
of this year's census was the relative
growth of cities and industrial cen-
tres as compared with the farming
regions. Rural growth in the last
ten years was only one-third as great
as it was in the previous decade.
while the cities nearly maintained
their 1900—1910 rate of growth.

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.»—Experts or
the Army and Navy Aviation flying
today were preparing reports to the
government on the flying demonstra-
tion of a flaming oilsoaked. fire-
proofed airplane )RDd‘ lts lmldniéht
landing device, witnessed by them
late last night at Mlneola. The
spectacular demonstration‘ was made
by Paul Collins. a civilian flyer.
Particular importance is attached
to it because of the recent loss of
so many mail aviators caused by
flaming machines.
Before making his ascent to an al
tilutle of 5,000 feet. (‘olllns‘ machine
was treated throughout with the fire
proofing “dope" and then complete-
ly saturated with gasoline mum:
himself donned a costume similarly
treated. At his highest altitude he
set fire to the gasoline and thrilled
the countryside by his flaming. com-
ct-like course. On his dcsr‘tht. at
about 1,000 feel. he also touched oil
two flares or magnesium on the tips
of the wings and by manipulating
two large mirrors underneath thr-
fuselage. be illuminated the whole
landing field. enabling him to makc
a perfect “daylight" landing.
The fireproofing. as “'0" as the ap
paralns for the “daylight" lending is

duties prevented him from accepting
the nomination.
The nomination speech was made
by Dr. Benjamin Bohnnnn of Stam-
ford. who assailed bitterly thoae op-
posed to the League of Nations. He
urged all the delegates present to
work doubly hard in this campaign
for Democracy. Town chairman John
A. Cornell seconded the nomination.
The convention Was called to order
at 3 o’clock by \Viiliam J. Moran.

MOVING SINCE
RCIRBER 1
At least 200 families have changed
their places of n-sidcncc since Octo-
ber let. in Norwalk. This makes a
new record for the city. This state-
ment was made this morning by Irv-
ing H. Reid. foreman of the L. J. Rey-
nolds & Sons. truckers. .
"October lst is always a big moving
month.“ said Mr. Reid. "This year.
.howevcr. more families are changing
their place of residence than ever be-
forr. I don‘t know the reason for it.
but if is probably simply because they
do not care for the house in which
they are living and have found quar—
ters which seem more desirable."
"The high cost of rents does not ap-
pear to have anything to do with the
new moving record. People are not
moving info less expensive apart-
ments. In fact, many of them change
into places where the rents are much
higher."

Being Approached—Com-

Investigations conducted by the
Connecticut (‘hamber of Commerce
during the past two weeks show that
the shortage of hard coal is very scri-
ous in the state. but. that lbe‘re proo-
ably can be enough secured and trans
ported to supply the daily needs of
the ,people if the following rules are
observed. The Chamber recommends:
First. The people should conserve
hard coal. They should use substi-
tutes so far as possible. and be satis-
fied with lower temperatures. as was
done during the war.
Second. The people should be rca
sonable. with their dealers—in other
words. an appeal is made to thc peo-
pie to aid the retailers. They should
be satisfied with deliveries on the
installment plan. A mavimum install-
ment of one montlrs' supp'y is recom-
mended.
Third. Dealers should for a time
observe the installment plan of de-
livery. and the above limit. The
dealer who fails to do so for the sake
of gratifying some influential cus-
tomer is not serving his customers
well, nor is the influential customer
dealing fairly by his neighbor. .
The (‘hamber at once went into the
two factors that lie at the root ol'
the matter—the production of coal

tickets for the world‘s series game:
between the (‘leveland Indians and
the Brooklyn Dodgers have fallen in-
to the hands of scalpers. as a result
of the precautions takn by the Cleve—
land baseball club. This was indicated
by the fact that scalpers today were
demanding $100 for two box seats for
four games. the original cost of which
was $52.90.
No tickets for reserved or box seats
were sold by the baseball manage-
ment. except to those who held allot-
ment cards issued by the club. the sig-
natures on which corresponded to
that on the application for seats.
The only individual tickets to be
sold by the Cleveland club are tho”
for the bleachers. They will not be
obtainable except on the day of the
game. and the purchaser must pass
immediately from the ticket window
into the park. relinquishing his ticket
at the turnstile.
Approximately fifty percent of the
reserved seats were distributed yes-
terday. the first day of thatickel sale,
to holders of allotmlnt cards
