bid employment of undeclared
aliens in many departments, has
not yet been determined, but it
is certain that lots of private en-
ployers are scanning their pay
rolls and wedding out the foreign
born who have not taken out
papers.
An even greater number of
letters fall into the Census Bu-
reau mail baskets from persons
trying to find out how old they
are. Most of these came origin
ally from persons seeking old
age pensions. But the draft
swamped the bureau. The COM
pulsory filing of birth certificates
is comparatively recent and even
where it has been a practice for
years, hundreds of communities
have seen their records lost
through careleSSneSS and indif-
ference or destroyed by fire,
floods or winds.
Validity Established
Through the courts, validity
of the Census Bureau statistics
has been established. It has been
proved that army papers, pass
ports, civil service records and
other official papers filed under
cath sometimes lie, but Census
Bureau records. checked and dou-
ble-checked over the years, rare
ly fail to disclose the truth.
Private employers, the govern
ment and the courts all have
come to recognize the authen-
ITCHY of Census Bureau reports.
accounting for the demand.
To meet this demand, the Cen
sus Bureau has prepared regular
forms for answering these ques-
tiOns-but don't try to get one of
these just by writing in for it.
Census Bureau information on
individuals is available only to
those individuals. The bureau al
ready has had its round and
around about the secrecy of its
information on individuals. and
not even J. Edgar Hoover and his
G-bOys could get it without the
permission of the person involv-
ed, which is sort of tops in
