[62] Compare date with date given in heading of [Table 12]. “April 26” appears in official reports as included in each of the first two periods, and probably was actually so included.
These figures are based, not on a study of individual cases, but on lists and registers kept by the various committees in charge of transportation. Although they probably are not absolutely correct, they are sufficiently exact for the present purpose. The term Pacific States in the following table includes the tier of states from Montana to New Mexico; all east of them is called East. Alaska and British Columbia destinations are included in Pacific States, and eastern Canadian and European points are included in East. The number of persons sent to such points was very small.
The following table shows the number carried for all periods, exclusive of those carried to suburban points.
