LAWRENCE J. LKXM’RSE. City Clerk, Census of 1940 Is Called Vital Most Complete Statistical Project Ever Taken in United States. W ASH IN CTO, N. Plan* a* xmmeed by the department of com merce for tile sixteenth decenmal census, to be taken in £940, indicate the most significant and comprehen sive statistical project ever taken ia the Uhitad. States. The census, to cover the continent* al United States,. Alaska, Hawaii, the- Virgin Islands, Puerte Rico, and some small island possessions, will reveal the transitions in na tional, social and economic life in the ID eventful yews since the last census. The records will be broken into four main divisions population, manufacturers, agriculture ' and business—and will afford an inven tory of the humab and economic re sources of the country. The busi ness and manufacture count will commence in. January. The popu lation and agriculture tabulation will begin April L “With the possible exception of the first census taken m 1790, the . sixteenth decennial census will be the most important ever taken/* an official said. “It will be an inven tory of the human and economic resources of the country, since ev ery person, every home, every farm, every factory, and every stone in the United States will be recorded.” Large Staff Needed. Approximately 1000 office work i ers will increese the permanent Washington staff ed 700 to facilitate the reception and tabulation of re ports from the estimated 140,000 field workers in the general census, j Civil service appointments will be necessary for the Washington jobs. The country will be divided into enumeration districts according to population, with each 1,400 residents of a suburban area comprising one district, and 900 set as the figure for a rural district. , In all cases, the census bureau said, district markings will follow, insofar as possible, natural bound aries in rural areas, as mountains, rivers and sea coasts. Preliminary work of mapping the country is in progress and will not be completed until the bureau has, an accurate physical description of? the entire country, with a check, on ail village, town and ward boundt. aries. All hospitals, insane asylurruk and prisons will be located. Conat to Taka 15 Days. Census bureau officials estimate' the average time for completion of city tabulations at 15 days, and. for rural areas, 30 days. Unfavorable weather conditions would, naturally call for an extension. Supervisory districts will; bv shufr fled to embrace approximately 23S enumerators* districts each. An almost universal rale of four cents per name will be paid enu merators, both city an<l rural, buA the rate will be boosted $4 seme ex ceptional cases as in. arKnintainou* country or other territory with ad verse physical factors. After tabulation is completed, »tt identities will be obliterated in the long rows of figures. The bureau repeatedly stressed that no federal or state agency can use the census for investigatiott, taxation or regu lation. This, astringent restriction applies especially to the federal bu reau of investigation, the internal revenue division and. the courts.
