I STATE'S COUNTIES SHIFT IN CENSUS Berks May Lose Seventh Place Rank to Montgomery HARRISBURG, May 29 An extensive change in the ranking of Pennsylvania's 67 counties by their population totals Is in progress as the 1930 census returns are being completed. The figures for 22 counties In which the preliminary totals have been computed have already effected several shifts and have In' dicated that many more are likely to be shown when all the county totals are avauaoie.

Among the 10 most heavilv nonu lated counties, Montgomery, with an increase oi iss.zz per cent to a present total of 265,517, has threat ened to aavance irom eigntn place unless eauallv substantial ealns are shown by Berks and Schuylkill counties. The 1920 population of Berks was 200,854 land that 'of ctcmiyiKUl 217,754. Luzerne Still Thiwi Philadelphia and Allegheny have yob coxnpjerea out XjUzeme, Increasing 179 per cent to a current total of 446,516 Is In no danger "i losing its inira place ranking. Lackawanna, which trained onlv 9.23 per cent and has a present total of 310,069, Is apparently not so certain of maintaining fourth nlace. Wpt.

moscland with 273,568 In 1920, has auusuy snown a gain or 29,000 on 'incomplete returns snH win rwi Lackawanna closely If It does not uiapiace Lehigh countv. which wv enteenth in 1920, has gained 16.40 ir cent, wnue JNortnampton, flf Jenth 10 years ago, gained only i.TO per rent ana nas tnus advanced at least one notch. Lehigh has 172, 390 to Northampton's 169,603, and is also likely to pass Dauphin, which was sixteenth in 1920 with a population of Cumberland TJp Two Cumberland county, which reported an increase of 16.64 per cent and a present population of will advance at least two places. Ranking thirty eighth in 1920 it has a larger 1930 total than Franklin and Crawford. Franklin was thirty fourth 10 years ago but gained only 4.33 per cent to a current figure of 64,972, while Crawford was thirty sixth and has increased only 3.34 per cent to 62,693.

The greatest advance thus far has been registered by Greene county, whose 35.65 per cent increase is the greatest reported by any of the completed counties. Its current population has raised It above Elk, Adams. Clinton n.nri Alffi i rr, latter has also passed Elk, 'Adams turn iuuun. jvwimn's gam was 28 03 and its 1930 total Is 40,252. The 22 counties in which the complete preliminary totals have been compiled show an increase of 380,719 or 13.20 per cent as compared with an Increase of 228.253 or 12.04 per cent from 1910 to 1920.

Their combined present population Is 2.402,210 as compared with 2,121,482 in 1920 and 1,893,229 in 1910. SAVING SCOTTY A visitor from Aberdeen at a Liverpool hotel inquired about the board charges.
