position of enumeration, for the rea-
son that many persons would be in
clined to give information to a tax
assessor or tax collector, especially
information with regard to the value
of property such as is called for on
the farm schedule"
The Department of Commerce has
but one thing in mind relative to the
Census and that is complete and
honest count of population, manu-
facture, distribution, unemployment;
agriculture, mining and drainage.
Thus the ruling.
Residents of Redwood county,
therefore, need have no fears in CIV
ing the Census enumerators all the
information they want. Every re-
port is strictly confidential and that
enumeration who dares to violate his
oath of office and by word or act di-
vulge any information secured in the
conduct of his work, faces not only
heavy fine but prison sentence.
