New County Census
Areas Established
For Statistical Data

In a joint program with the
State of Montana and each of its
counties. the Bureau of the Cen.
Sus is establishing areas known
as Census County Divisions" for
use in statistical reporting. These
areas will be used TO replace the
hool districts. election pre-.
cinc;s. and townships previously
used as census reporting units.
Marvin Gordon. q member Of
the Census Staff. Is here from
Washington. ID. {. to consult with
county officials and TO ask for
their advice in regard to the pro.
posed areas
Census County Divisions should
be particularly useful for local
statistical purposes. For the most
part. they are based on the popu.
lation ccntcrs which serve as 4
focal point Of each division. The
boundaries for each division are
visible features. The statistical
data collected for these divisions
IN coming r,nsuscS will serve to
measure the sphere of influence
exercised by the population cen.
tiers. II is believed that the Cen.
sus County Divisions will be q
handy tool for the use Of county
officials. local newspapers. and
business organizations.
Mr.. Gordon has assured officials
that the county divisions set up
by the Bureau Of the Census will
not interfere In any way with
existing governmental units Of
the State or counties.
Glacier County has been di.
vidcd into five Census County
Divisions as follows:

CANCER FUND
DRIVE BEGINS
Campaign Plans Mapped Out
by Society for Annual
Public Appeal
ISSUE JOINT APPEAL

Cooperating with the United
States Government, the American
Cancer Society will conduct its
campaign for funds among all
federal employees between Janu-
airy l and February Is along with
seven other health agencies.
In making this announcement,
Franklin B. Drumheller said that
the Society would make no furth-
er solicitation within Government
establishments during cancer con-
troll month in April.
Drumheller said that the So
ciety's joint appeal with other
agencies is the result of a new
White House approved policy of
permitting only three solicitations
a year within any Government
establishment, including the mill
tary. There will be separate So
licitations for the Community
Chest for United Fund type of
appeal, and the Red Cross.
The ACS spokesman pointed
out that the policy was worked
out after year-and-a-half's care
full study by high government Of
ficials and leaders in the volun-
tary health and welfare fields.
The new policy has been called
the best solution possible to all
groups concerned" and it embod-
les President Eisenhower's wishes
for preserving true voluntary
giving" It preserves the right of
the voluntary contributor to Sc
lect the agency or agencies he or
she wants to support.
When the government policy
was formulated in cooperation
with the health and welfare agen-
cies involved, President Eisenhow-
er said
I'VE who work in the govern
ment want to assume our full
citizens share of voluntary sup
port of the many worthwhile pri-
vate health and welfare organiza-
tions. True voluntary giving is
based on the personal desire of
an individual to make a private
donation to a specific agency for
a purpose with which he is fam
iliar and which he wants to sup
port. The new program will make
available to everyone in the gov
ernment the opportunity to give
his full measure of support to
these efforts"
Also, Drumheller explained that
the new policy protects the right
of an agency to conduct an edu-
cational program in connection
with the Embarrassing drive. This
is very important to the success
of the American Cancer Society's
program" the spokesman added.
Plans for the drive among fed
eral workers in Delaware have
been worked out by representa-
tives of the agencies involved.
Other agencies participating in
the federal service campaign for
national health agencies are:
American Heart Association, Inc,
The Arthritis and Rheumatism
Foundation, Muscular Dystrophy
Associations of America, Inc, Ma
tional Society for Crippled Child
rem and Adults, Inc, United Ger
ebral Palsy Association, Inc, and
the Mental Health Association.
