CIRCULARS DISTRIBUTED
TO AID CENSUS TAKING
Provided for Foreign Born by
Citizenship Training Division
of Labor Department.

To avert confusion on the part of
the foreign born in connection with
the taking of the census. 100000 cir
culars have been printed and dis
tributed by the division of citizenship
training of the Department of Labor
in cooperation with the bureau of
census of the Department Of the In
terror. These circulars have been is
sued to show the real purpose of the
government in taking the census ev-
cry ten years. Ignorance of the pur-
pose. officials state offers excellent
soil in which antiAmerican and revo-
lutionary propagandists may SOW
false reports which may result dis
astrously.
Uncle Sam Is Counting on You to
Help Him." is the slogan contained on
the pamphlet. 1t carries a simple
statement of the director of citizen
ship. Raymond F. Christ. which ex-
plains that the census has been taken
every ten years since 1870; what
questions enumerator will ask; warns
that the represe ntative of the govern
ment Will carry card which he will
show to them. and denies that the
census has anything to do with the
war or taxes. 1t also urges the man
who receives it to tell his friends
about the census. so the true ideas
concerning it may be disseminated
among all the foreign-born people in
the United States
Copies have been distributed among
teachers who handle the foreign born
population. Industrial concerns which
have been working with the govern
ment in forwarding the preparation
| for citizenship of their employees have
been distributing centers for the cir
| culars. as have the naturalization ex-
aminers who have given them to all
with whom their activities have
thrown them in contact
1t is thought that this preparation
will make the taking of the census a
! much easier and more satisfactory
process than it has ever been before
! The question concerning alienage
which was included at the request of
| the director of citizenship. will place
new and vital facts at the dispoSal of
