Moscow wants its full population enumerated. We want to show a substantial growth, and if we secure the enumeration of all the citizens of Moscow and Latah county, the enumerators will have to have some help. This is an important matter and one which the chamber of commerce should take up at its luncheon next Tuesday. A committee should be appointed to see that everyone is enumerated. The committee could work with the enumerators and get a list every day, of the streets and blocks enumerated and ascertain if any had been missed. If it were found that some had been missed, the committee could see that these were enumerated.
We believe this is a matter of enough importance to warrant action by the chamber and that work should be started immediately after the luncheon next Tuesday to contain if any had been missed in the territory gone over by the enumerators up to that time. A daily check of the territory gone over would be a great help to the enumerators.
The pay allowed by the government is so small that the enumerators not afford to go back over the ground a second time and unless some assistance can be rendered, there will be many persons not counted.
