Small Circus Shows In Anchorage

ANCHORAGE, (P) It worked out we'll all around. especially for Alaskan kids who had never seen an ocelot or eaten cotton candy.
 And Mir and Mrs. John Beck, operators of the Pacific Northwest Shows which opened here Satur- day, have realized an ambition to see Alaska. We always wanted to visit the Territory, so we just packed up the carnival and headed north" said Mrs. Beck.
 It didn't have the animals or acts to compare with major cir cuses, but Anchorage kids found it completely satisfying. The show, which came up by truck, has ap- peared at Fairbanks and White horse. Its stand here is sponsored by the Lion Club. with profits to be used for improving swimming facilities at Lake Spenard.

Census Of Business Houses Started

The federal census of business got under way in Nome Saturday when Paul Solka, Divisional Su- perviSOr for the Second and Fourth Divisions in the business cenSuS began the enumeration of Nome businesses. He expects to complete his work here TuSday and will then return to his headquarters in Fairbanks.
 While a census of business has been conducted in the States since 1928 when Herbert Hooven, then secretary of commerce inaugurated the fact finding survey, this is the first time that Alaska mad Hawaii have been included by Congress. The census of business is prelim- mary to the population census which will get under way some time after the first of the year Solka reported. Since the census of business is being conducted on g limited budget, only the larger cit | ieS in Alaska are being enumerat- ed by personal contact, and the outlying areas will be covered by mail.
 The population census, oi course, will be conducted on g much larger scale.
 Solka reported fine cooperation by Nome businessmen in render ing the necessary information for the business census.
 Information gathered by the survey will be used only to com pute totals for the various busi- nesses, and under no circum- stances will figures be published which might reveal the individual identity of a business. The individ- ual reports are not available to any other branch of the govern ment, Solka emphasized.
 According to information re- ceived by Solka, it is expected that the first general compilation of re- suits of the business survey will be published about the first of the year.
