The population of the nation's capital Increased from 486,869 to 663,153 In the last decade, preliminary figures of the new census disclosed tonight.

The gain of 36.6 per cent was the largest of any major city so far reported and moved Washington up from 14th place among the nation's cities to 11th or 12th, depending upon the San Francisco count.

Detec tives hunted tonight for a possible revenge motive in the slaying of Dr. Malcolm D. Miller, 65 years old, of Akron and based their investigation partly on similarity to the recent shooting of a Cleveland psychiatrist. They conferred with Dr. Miller's young widow, Ruby, 34, who saw her husband slain by a swarthy, mustached man of about 35.

Detective Inspector Verne Cross said the Karnosh shooting may have suggested the Miller slaying to a former patient or a relative of one. May Be Similar. "The doctor treated a lot of women," said Cross, "Maybe this fellow was crazed by the notion that he hadn't done all that could have been done for his wife or sweetheart." The detective said expected valuable nssislance in tracking the killer from Dr.

Miller's office assistant, who had been vacationing in Tennessee but is now en route home. Cross reported she would be asked to single out suspects from among the hundreds of patients filing through the physician's office in recent months. Boy's Leg Fractured Otis Johnson, 18-year-old Negro youth, suffered a fractured right leg last night when he was struck by a car while riding his bicycle in the 400 block of East North street. The car was driven by Dan Johnston, 17, 1946 Arrow avenue. the weather is pretty hot, one isn't tired by the heat.

There's always a breeze. And some of the prettiest sights I've ever seen are the fields of flowers. Let me tell about the fields. They are obviously planted to flowers dusky blue flowers, or bright yellow ones. The car rolls by mile after mile of wheat or oats or whatever they grow out here, and then all of a sudden comes a blue field, or a yellow one, and everyone gasps with delight.

I Agger those fields are lying fallow for a year, instead of being used In rotation, and Mr. Sevitzky, that born and bred man-of-the-earth, says these particular flowering plants are good for the soil. People Are Enterprising. I give you this information, together with his opinion, in a slightly hesitant spirit; on almost all things the maestro's pronouncements bear the stamp of authority for me, but somehow I can't believe too strongly in his knowledge of farming. His neck isn't red enough.

The people of North Dakota are enterprising, too. They know how to stimulate people's curiosity. Of different things, native to what- ever locality we are in. During the morning's drive we saw a filling station ahead with a huge tower built beside it, about as high as a three-story building. Pretty Rooks Or Were They? Mrs.

Sevitsky and who are al- such an attractive tower. Jhe stones glistened in the sunlight and their beauty just naturally appealed to our aesthetic senses. We talked about them pretty loud, and were amazed at the aura of silence which surrounded our usually appreciative and vol uble driver. He was looking very iing along behind us Mr. Sevitzky turned it around and drove slowly back past that filling station, Anyway.

Fabien Sevitzky and thin article replaces her column, The Party Line, which is a regular feature of the Society Section of The Sunday Star. Washington, July 6. (U.P.) i Big game enumerators for the i Agriculture Department reported I tonight they had completed their annual census without a scratch.

They admitted, however, they had not asked any embarrassing questions of mountain lions or polar bears and that they had some difficulty in counting deer and mountain goats. Although the questionnaires filled out by the forest ranger enumerators contained no space for listing such things as Income, bathroom facilities or how many bears there were to the den, the department said the census disclosed deplorable "wild life slum" conditions. Deer Killing Urged. Over-crowding of deer and some other big game In their forest homes has created a "slum problem" comparable to that of some of the nation's cities, the census report said. It suggested more of the deer be killed.

"The over-crowding has reached a stage where many of the animals face starvation on a number of ranges," Dr. H. L. Shantz, chief of the division of wild life management of the forest service said. The census enumerators reported they counted 1,930,000 head of big game in the 161 national forests, the count was made during the winter feeding season and spring births probably have boosted th total over 2,000,000.

While Commerce Department Census Bureau officials pondered a decreasing human birth rate, the forest rangers found the animal population la increasing 20 per cent a year. It has Increased 282 per cent since 1924. Deer Most Numerous. By far the most numerous of the nation's big game family is the deer, the census showed. These numbered 1,627,000 and did not Include the spring crop of 200,000 fawns.

The over-crowding; report also may sound just a bit fishy to the 750,000 licensed deer hunters who managed to bag only 164,000 deer last year. Mountain lions and other predatory animals were estimated to have killed 300,000 deer. The census count on other big aania lni'lnfln 19 000 antelone. 000 black bear, 700 grizzly bear, 4,500 Alaska brown ana gruziy hear, 144,000 elk, 7,300 moose, mountain goats, 9,150 bighorn, 7,500 peccary or Jnvelln and 780 European wild boars. Because many of the mountain lions didn't answer the census takers' knocks, and the census takers didn't wait to count them when they did, no count was given on the klnjf of beasts.

Carrozzo Pays Big Income Tax Sums "Oversight" Includes Money Spent On Indiana Farms, Claim. Chicago, July 6. UP) Michael Carrozzo, boss of the city's common laborers union and numerous affiliates, has paid the Federal government nearly a half-million dollars in the last few years in an effort to settle his tax accounts, it was learned today from authoritative sources. These advices said Carrozzo, now under indictment for an alleged anti-trust law violation, paid a jlump sum running In five figures several years ago. This was for income taxes, interest and penalties for his "oversight" in falling to file returns.

Carrozzo was understood to have explained he made an "honest mistake" because ha thought his annual salary of approximately from union work was tax-exempt. Thereafter, Informed government sources said, revenue agents found other items of Income besides his salaries. A tax figure running Into thousands of dollars was arrived at after study of his accounts, authorities said, and Carrozzo paid It. From then on the labor leader's annual Income tax returns were accompanied regularly by payments on income from sources other than his salaries. Government sources said that later when revenue agents inquired into large items of "expenditures" not included in his tax return, Carrozzo admitted they had been omitted, and paid large deficiency taxes.

Among such items, it was learned, were thousands of dollars spent on his farms in Indiana. Criminal Probe Also. Meanwhile, the criminal branch of the Internal revenue department had been pursuing a parallel Inquiry. Sources said Washington officials had given investigators the "go" signal and that Carrozzo's accounts would be submitted to a grand jury late this summer or early fall. Carrozzo and several other labor officials have been Indicted on a charge of violating the anti-trust law by allegedly excluding ready-mixed concrete from the Chicago area.

The United States government started Investigation of Michael Carrozzo In October, 1938, prompted by the union leader's purchase and building of a big estate near Hobart, Ind. Texas Professor Urges U.S. to Declare War Now Austin, July 6. (U.P.) pr, J. L.

Mecham, University of Texas government professor, said tonight that the United States should declare war immediately on Germany and Italy. Mecham said that only under complete wartime mobilization could this country be of any assistance to Great Britain. "By going on a war basis, military preparations could be accelerated to a degree absolutely impossible today," Mecham said. "Opposition to compulsory military service would be immediately brushed aside and also, incidentally, the opposition of our 'industrial Fascists' such as Henry Ford." Ford recently refused to manufacture airplane motors for the British, government in his United States plants although he said he would manufacture them for a United States armament program- Dolls to Escape Tax After Dispute On Coast Los Angeles, July 6.

WABASH RIVER, two field courses, which were at that time a part of the regular civil engineering curriculum. These courses necessitated occupation of areas around West Lafayette and the results were far from satis factory. Since 1914 all other field courses in the curriculum, except elementary surveying, have been added to the camp work, each addition of course content being ac companied by an increase in the length of time spent at camp. The present course Is nine weeks In length and is rewarded by nine hours of university credit.

Improved by Student. All improvements on the site, with the exception of the farm buildings and lighting system, have been made by students. Each year some construction Is undertaken which adds to the value of the camp property and to the comfort and enjoyment of the students who elect the camp course. Adequate buildings for instruction, commis sary and sleeping are available. A swimming pool, bath house, tennis courts and baseball diamond provide for recreation.

The water is sufficient and of good quality. Proper sanitation Is provided and in 1939 a complete electric lighting system was Installed. This summer there Is an enrollment of 73 students, of which the majority will be sophomores next year. Among this group are two girl engineering students, Katherine Lux of Logansport and Ellen Zelgler of Gary. Marks Birthday In Calcutta, India MARY ELIZABETH KARMTADT.

REBUILT A siuriy ny ur. faui Jfuerst-i ner, University of California gynecologist, and Frederick Sargent, meteorologist of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, showed that in most of these cases, technically called eclampsia, the convulsions developed within two days after pronounced weather changes.

Follow Weather Changes. Nearly a third of the cases occurred between 40 and 50 hours after a "cold front" had passed over the locale of the study, in this case Chicago, where meteorological changes develop in quick succession. A cold front is that portion of a moving mass of cold air which meets a mass of relatively warm air and usually causes rain or storm conditions. Thirteen per cent of the cases followed the passage of a "warm front" over Chicago. A warm front is the dividing line between an ad vancing mass of warm air and a receding mass of cold air.

The weather change is more gradual than in the case of the cold front and it usually causes temperatures to rise and air pressure to de crease. Other Diseases Checked. The report, published in detail in the Journal of Laboratory and Clinical Medicine, said other researchers had established definitely that attacks of apoplexy, laryngeal croup, acute glaucoma (an eye disease) and others followed such weather changes. It made no claim that weather shifts caused eclampsia. Its authors said the cause of eclampsia was not known definitely.

However, the number of convulsion cases has decreased since physicians! bpgan treating expectant mothers who show early signs of the condition. See Preventive Measures.
