It is de- 1 i. sired to show the total number of i homes in each city that are rented, , the number that are owned free of I mortgage,' te" number that are sub- i ject to mortgage indebtedness and the amount of such indebtedness. Schedules of inquiry calling for i this information have been sent to { all of the persons reported as owning ( homes subject to mortgage, but un- i fortunately, a large number of the 1 citizens have not replied to the official request. "We imagine," says the 1 director of the census, "that this in- 1 difference on their part is due to the I < fact that they do not appreciate the < importance of the statistics. Two requests have already been sent to your citizens. A third request is now about to be mailed.
