'it's the biggest I ever saw," Sheriff Woodrow Preston said of the distillery which included a 935 gallon and 3.250 gallon cooker unit, 316 fermenters, about 665 gallons of distilled spirits and 1,000 empty gallon jugs.

Officers arrested John Nelson Ott. 19. of Nicholson and Willie H. Jackson 24. Rt.

They were released on $300 bond each returnable to hearings before a Justice of the Peace. The state and county officers raided the illicit operation on a farm seven and one-half miles west of Wiggins on Tuesday afternoon. They returned Wednesday to remove the equipment from the electrically-lighted barn so it could be destroyed without damaging the barn. An automobile and butane gas tank also were confiscated.

The Secretarial Institute is co sponsored by the Malabou-chia Chapter of the National Secretarial Association and the University of Mississippi and is being held through the Ole Miss gration trends continue. Texas will join the group if interstate migration trends tend to flatten out.

The big increase in Southern populations will be due to more babies and fewer deaths. Here are growth projections for a selected number of States, which use one of the optimistic set of figures: Delaware 52.4 per cent-20 year growth, expected 1935 population, Florida 81.5 per cent-20 year growth, expected 1985 population, North Carolina 29.5 per cent-20 year growth, expected 1985 population, 5.993,000; Tennessee 27.8 per cent-20 year growth, expected 1985 population, 4.639,000; Mississippi 26.4 per cent, Louisiana 41.0 per cent, Arkansas 25.8 per cent, Oklahoma 19.8 per cent, and Texas 39.1 per cent-20 year growth, expected 1985 population, 13,606,000. much greater than the 27-28 per cent rate of growth in the North and Northeast, although it won't come up to the 60.3 per cent rate of growth in the West. The South's increase in population, 22,558,000, will be numerically the greatest. Most Southern States will continue to supply migrants to other parts of the United Stales, but the WASHINGTON Make way for the baby boom in the South! The United States Bureau of the Census estimates that 34,309,000 babies will be born in the Southern states during the next 20 years, and that this will be far more babies than will be born in the Northeastern, North Central, or Western regions of the United States.

RC525 bies is contained in a Census Bureau pamphlet bearing the unexciting title ''Illustrative Projection of the Populations of States, 1970 to 1985 (Revised)." The pamphlet presents tables of state-by-state population estimates for the years 1970, 1975, 1980, and 1985.

The tables vary as one set assumes a modest decline in the current birthrate, and the other set assumes a severe decline. ASSUMPTION Each set is modified by sumptions that interstate migration (1) will continue as it did during the late 1950's, (2) gradually die out during the next 50 years, or (3) has stopped now. Thus the tables offer a series of estimates that Louisiana, for example, will have at least population in 1985 and perhaps as great a population as 5,053,000. The 1965 population of Louisiana was 3.560,000. Texas with a 1965 population of 10,591,000 may grow to during these 20 years, but surely will reach 13,392,000.

Florida of course is the big boom State of the South. From a base of 5,796,000 in 1965 it could increase to 9,850,000 in 20 years, but at least will reach fl.012,000. Florida is one of the States for which future inter-slate migration is primarily important. Its predicted population increase of 4,732,000 would include 2,945,000 net in-migration. California is the other big goal of mobile Americans.

The projected 13.301.000 maximum increase in California's population would include 5.841,000 net in-migration. All the current populations trends peak in California. California could have the most babies, 11,523,000, during the next 20 years, and wind up with the most people, Under all the Census Bureau assumptions California will outstrip New York in population. By the time California counts 30.537,000 residents New York State will have only 23,586,000. The predicted growth in the South as a region forecasts a younger population, containing more new families.

To a business man this is a forecast of economic growth and prosperity. PROJECTION Using an optimistic projection the 193,795,000 United States population of 15 will grow to 206,345.000 bv 1970; 222,805.000 bv 1975: and will reach by 1985. This will be a 36 per cent increase. Population growth In the South is scheduled to be at a to the indigent citizens of our State.
