At least"that's the experience that Uncle Sam has had-in 150 years of Census-taking according to a letter just recently released by the Bureau of the Census asking college students to cooperatein making the 1940 Cen- sus as accurate as possible. Uncle Sam, says the letter, is ask- ing college students to write home during March and request some- thing besides the traditional check. He wants the young men and women who are living temporarily at school to remind their parents: "Count me in when the Census-taker comes to the 'family mansion' in April." Students Will Benefit Feeling that college students, like every other section of the popula- tion, will benefit from a reliable na- tional inventory,-the Bureau of Cen- the letter continues, wants college students to help make it a success by first, making sure that their par- ents will report them.to the Census enumerator, and second, supplying' their parents with certain informa- - i Arab Society Viewpoints To Discuss Of Near East "The Geographic, Social and Cul- tural Aspects of the Near East as Viewed by a Modern Arab," will be the subject for discussion " at the first open forum to be held by Al- Thaqafa, Arabic cultural society, at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Union. tion they will need in order to re- port on them accurately. Affhand, the letter declares, it might beethought that parents would know everything about the student which would be called for in the Cen- sus. But the questions which are be- ing asked in 1940 are somewhat more complex than those of previous years, reflecting the need for facts bearing ,on the many problems which have arisen in the United States- during the eventful decade just closing. Questions To Send The queries on which pareits are most likely to be uncertain aIre those relating to employment status. Stu- dents are asked to clip the following questions, answer them, and send the information on to their parents; 1. Number of weeks the student worked in 1939 equivalent full-time weeks. 2. Number of hours he worked dur- ing the week of March 24-30, 1940. 3. Present, or if seeking work, last occupation (exact nature of duties performed.) 4. Present or last industry (kind of factory, store or other place of business). 5. Present or last class of worker (wage or salary worker in private work: wage or salary worker in gov- ernment work; working on own ac- count; unpaid family workers). 6. Whether at work in private or non-emergency government work during week of March 24-30. 7. If not, whether assigned to pub- lic emergency work (such as NYA) during that week. 8. If neither, whether seeking w rk. 9. If not at work or seeking work, does the student have a job or busi- ness, from which he is temporarily on vacation, sick leave or lay-off? Residence Of Student The only other question which par- Mititary S tu dents Used For Statistics, They will be used solely, for statis- tical purposes. For example, it will be possible to ,determine from the 1940 Cexisus figures the number of college graduates in various occupa- tions, the number of unemployed col- lege. graduates, and great. deal of other important information never before available. Not . only will the Census produce material of this type,.the letter con- eludes, which bears directly on the student's pdospects, but will furnish sociological data of considerable value to students doing research. Thus cooperation with the 1940 Cen- sus will pay the student dividends. mittee sponsored meeting 8 p.m. Wednesday in the Union.
