TEN COUNTIES SHOW
A GAIN ON CENSUS
(From Wednesday's Daily.)
PHOENIX, June 12. - Arizona's registration for the conscription will run close to or over the estimate based on the census, the local authorities feel sure. On the basis of population according to the last census and allowing a reasonable percentage of increase, Arizona's quota was estimated at 34,800.
Ten counties have reported, and the official figures show a slight gain over the estimates. Following is the record:
In the four counties where there were more eligibles than the census indicated, there are gains totaling 3,496. Six counties show losses from the estimates, amounting to 3,293, which leaves a net gain for the ten counties already reported, of 203.
The four counties that have not yet reported to Disbursing Officer F. S. Breen, are Yavapai, Mohave, Apache and Pinal.
