Every Person
Counted, $50
To Treasury

City officials, alarmed at an
apparent slump in Tacoma's
census total, were prepared to
join Tuesday afternoon in a special
census meeting called by the
Tacoma Chamber of Commerce.
Every person counted in this
federal census means $50 to the
city treasury" Controller Thomas
A. Swayze asserted. I've figured
the state apportionment from the
liquor and gas tax funds amounts
to approximately SIS per capita
annually and for the 10 years the
census of 1910 governs this APP
portionment, that's $50 for every
man woman and child. 1t is ex-
tremely important to city finances
that we have everybody counted"
Works Commissioner Bergersen
likewise pointed to the Importance
of the census in the gas tax APP
portionments, upon which city
street improvements depend.
The chambers conference with
census officials was set for 4:30
Tuesday afternoon.
