By odd chance (don't ask!) I happen to have that edition, plus the 1929 edition. The earlier is identical.
It appears that the entry went without update for quite some time (the first paragraph cites population statistics from 1903). It may be that the Parisian term had fallen into disuse by the time of the 1929 and 1940 editions.
