Connecticut War Census Aims for April Completion
Connecticut undertakes a sweeping emergency war census listing every man sixteen and over with age trade and family responsibility. Factories will be cataloged detailing products and wartime capacity while confidential employer data guides resource assessments under Gov Holcomb. The plan follows President Wilson's break with Germany and seeks mobilization groundwork. A joint assembly address fast-tracked the measure. In Hartford D B Stanton reports regional trapping income near Hood River adds context to wartime resource use.
