Prisoners Rebel At
Creamed Chicken Repeat
PHILADELPHIA, March SO-Mt
City police are reinforcing the
guard detail today at the county
prison where 14.1 prisoner went
on a ait-down rebellion over the
customary Wednesday lunch of
creamed chicken.
Raymond J. Groller. newly ap
pointed acting superintendent of
th prison, said a strong city police
detail subdued the uprising without
violence.
Groller - attributed the disturb
ance to a number of dope addicts
among the TOO prisoners at the
institution.
Groller ssid he hsd heard ob
jections to the chicken menu and
found nothing wrong with It.
Count Of Census
Will Be Made
At Philadelphia .
PHILADELPHIA. March SO-Mt
For th first time in 170 yeara
census data from about 1M.000,
000 Americana will be toted up
outside of Wsshington.
America's third largest city (ac
cording to 1B40 census figures) waa
chosen by Congress to tabulate the
millions of forms. Ironically,
there's a good chsnce Philadel
phia will lose that "third largest"
title. War-boomed Loa Angelea hat
been growing fast.
Lack of sufficient office space In
Washington waa the chief reason
for shifting census hesdquarters
from the capital to Philadelphia,
aite of the firat U.S. capital. .
The count of Americana begins
Saturday when 140.000 enumera
tors, srmed with credentials and
question filled forms, go from
house to house and farm to farm
ringing doorbells.
When completed, the forms will
be sent here to a former radio
plant built by the late Atwater
Kent. It was recently remodeled
to house the gigantic counting
machinery. More than 5.500 clerka
will edit the schedules, checking
each form for consistency and se
curity. Then "electricsl brain" mi
chines will take over to - insure
completion of the record census
by Dec. 1.
John J. Lennon, Philadelphia
area supervisor and head of the
census' nstionsl office, said he
hopes to finish compilation of the
voluminous data to be channeled
through Philadelphia by June, 1951.
"That'a really fast work," Len
non explains, adding that years
sgo census takers used to meet
themselves coming and going.
"Why," Lennon aays, "back in
1890 clerka were atill adding up
the 1880 census figures when the
18fl0 forms stsrted rolling in."
The 1950 census will be the lar
gest co-ordinated population count
ever conducted by any one na
tion. The 17th "once-in-every-IO-yeara"
job is expected to cost the
taxpayers $80,000,000 before it'l
completed.
Besides people, census takers
will count houses, farms, busi
nesses. They will check the frequency
of births and deaths.
They will list every fifth per
son's income, record how much
it costs to raise his family, how
much h ssves:
They will count chickens, cows,
pigs, horses: All productive farm
animals.
They will find out how meny
homes still lack electricity; where
irrigation and drainage projects
are in operation.
In short: They will ask almost
everything, about everybody.
All told, the enumerators will
trsvel about 25,000,000 miles,
knock on doors at some 45.000.
000 homes in thousands of cities
snd towns and on some (.500,000
farms.

Steps To Sue Macy's

steps to sue Macv'a in an a'tempe
to halt price cutting on electrical
appliances.
The court action Is the first to

supreme court, allege that Macy's
has been selling GE steam irons
at SJ.M below the fair trade retail
minimum of S17.95 and sandwich
grills at S3 below the $14.95 mini

welcomes the suit as a test of fair
