ro,sus Enumerators Prohibited From
MAILING Their Information Public.
Special Correspondence of Gazette and Journal.
Washington, June lin the in
structions to enumerRtors OF the census
who are TO gather information in June
tho following sentences are found: II
YOU are asked what is the population
Of your district, or of any portion, reply
that you are forbidden by tho law to
answer. All such requests whether from
newspapers, local officials or individuals,
are to be referred 10 the director OF the
| census." Some printed criticisms upon
| this instruction indicate that IT'S object
| ia misunderstood. The census Office has
no othor desire in the matter tnnn to
secure accuracy and rapidity in publish
ing the population returns, But the
| experiences Of past censuses has shown
that local officials often make serious
errors in the results reported to the
census Office at Washington. and these
errors cannot be detected and corrected
until zach schedule is examined and
tabulated by the methods and with the
mechanical aids in use there, but not
elsewhere If returns were to be given
out from two sources, differ enSes would
frequently appear between the first
statement and the result of tho final
tabulation at Washington. Hence the
census law declares that an enumerator
who communicates to any unauthorized
person the information he gains in the
performance of his duties is guilty of a
misdemesnor and liable to tine OF not
more than 500.
To carry out the spirit Of this rio-
vision the instruction quoted has been
included in the pamphlet sent TO each
enumerator. 1t is hoped that by the
. Census Bureau that the newspapers,
local officials and individuals. although
= naturally eager to get the population
returns in which they are Interested at
, the earliest possible moment, will yet
appreciate the expediency and neces,
9 sity of this rule and will quietly submit
TO the delay it entails before the census
i returns can be published. 1t will a'so
