Beginning April 1 an army of 140,000 census enumerators will start calling on people in every city, town and farm community to find out the nation's 1950 popula- tion and obtain housing and agri- cultural information. ..THE CENSUS Bureau already has prepared the basic questions for the 17th 10-year census. Agri- cultural census forms will be mailed to farmers in most states in advance of the population enum- eration, and the completed forms will be picked up when the enum- erators come around. Hundreds of high speed tabu- lation machines will sum up the millions of facts collected by the census field forces. Basic population questions which will be asked each person lnolude name, relation to head of household, race, sex, age, marital status, state or county of birth, citizenship status, and employ- ment status the preceding week of every person over 14 years old, and the occupation, industry and class of worker. r EVERY FIFTH person the gov- ernment will ask what state and county he lived in a year earlier and whether he lived on a farm. It will ask country of birth of father and mother, highest grade of school attended and school attend- ance. Every fifth person 14 or over will be asked the duration of employment and number of weeks worked in 1949, income received in 1949 from various * sources, income received by rela- tives in the same household and whether men are war veterans. Every 30th person 14 or over Uncle Sam will ask occupation, in- dustry and class of work of rer- sons who worked the previous year but were not working or looking for work the previous week. It will also ask whether he was ever married or married more than once, years in present marital status and number of children born. a *x.& *~ * FOR EVERY dwelling unit the enumerators, will ask type of structure, condition, number of persons in unit, number of rooms, water supply, toilet facitNties, bathing equipment and whether it is occupied by owner or tena.jt. They will note if the house or apartment is vacant. Value of non-farm owner- occupied units will be asked, number of dwelling units in the property and whether mortg- aged. Non-farm renters will be asked their monthly rent, any amount paid in addition for electricity, fuel and water and whether the rented unit is furnished. For every fifth dwelling unit the enumerators will get information on the year it was built, heating equipment, heating fuel, cooking fuel, refrigeration equipment, kitchen sink and whether there is electric lighting, radio and tele- vision set. The basic questions to be an- swered by farmers will include name, address, race, age, acres in farm, acres owned, acres rented by farmer, acres rented to others, name and address of landlords and acres operated by hired managers.
