Census Will Require
3 More Weeks, Now
90 Per Cent Complete
Cencus Bureau officials today
said it would take about three
weeks to wind up the big count
of the country’s population, which
started April 1.
The bureau said the tally was
about 90 per cent complete at
present. A tentative national fig
ure will be put out the end of Sep
tember. This month and next
month tentative figures will be
announced for counties and for
cities over 10,000.
Before the census enumerators
started their rounds, bureau offi
cials had estimated the total
would be about 151 million per
sons, nearly 20 million more than
in 1940.
Meanwhile, Roy V. Peel, director
of the Census Bureau, said a sam
ple poll taken by the bureau
showed a new record of 29 million
persons enrolled in schools or col
leges at the beginning of the pres
ent school year.
This topped last year’s record by
900,000, Mr. Peel said. The in
crease was concentrated in the age
group 6 to 9 years old as the
abundant crop of war babies con
tinued pouring into the Nation’s
elementary schools.
Of the total of 29.3 million per
sons who were enrolled in educa
tional institutions in October,
1949, 20.5 million were in element
ary school; 6.5 million in high
school and 2.3 million in college or
professional school.
Among the students enrolled in
elementary school, one out of every
nine was in private school, and of j
students in high school, one of
every 11 was in private school.
Of the 11 million veterans of
World War 11, 18 to 34 years of
age, about 1 million were enrolled
in school or college. These en
rolled veterans constituted 37 per
cent of the school population of
this age group.
Coal Once Too Expensive
Because of transportation diffi
culties, bituminous coal was not
profitably marketed in the United
States until about 1820.

Soviet Rockets Aimed at Alaska,
Fugitive From Camp Says
•y the Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA, May 2.—Pow
erful rocket installations aimed at
Alaska, Norway and Sweden have
been built by Russia in the Arctic
and Baltic areas, says a 33-year
old fugitive from a Soviet con
centration camp.
Victor Martunuk, a Russian
naval engineer, reported the secret
operations yesterday through his
attorney, Ivan M. Czap.
Martunuk now is in Montgom
ery County Jail, Norristown, Pa.,
awaiting House action on a bill
to provide him with ‘‘lawful resi
dence” in this country, the lawyer
said.
Senator Martin, Republican, of
Pennsylvania introduced the bill,
which has been passed by the
Senate, Mr. Czap added.
Martunuk was arrested as a
stowaway aboard the steamer
Monitor w'hen she docked in
Philadelphia in April, 1949.
Martunk said he came in con
tact with information about rocket
installations while he was an in
mate of a Soviet prison camp at
Svirlag. north of Leningrad. The
[installations pointed at Alaska are
located on thd Arctic island of
Novaya Zemlya, he said.
He said he was sentenced to a
25-year term in the concentra
tion camp because he served with
a German anti-Communist army
of Russian prisoners.
In the winter of 1948, Martunuk
said, he beat a Soviet guard to
death with a wrench and escaped
from the prison camp.

Good Lacemakers Sing
To Give Rhythm to Bobbin
BRUSSELS.—To be a good lace
maker, you have to be able to
sing. Since the Middle Ages the
lacemakers have kept up their
custom of singing at their work.
Songs give the rhythm for mov
ing the bobbins. These songs are
sung on one note. Some songs
still in use date back to the 14th
and 15th Centuries and are sung
now just as in olden days.
