A Lewes man makes his rounds
of so to S5 homes every month,
asking all sorts of questions of the
residents.
Is he a nosey busybody?
No, he is John WaIlerstein of 4S
Sussex Drive, Highland AGES,
Lewes, the u. S. Bureau of Census
enumerator in Sussex County, Del
aware and parts of Worcester
County, Md.
Mr.. Wallerstein, who does the
Current Population Survey, works
IL months year in helping the
Federal Government keep tabs on
the soaring U. S. Population.
While the Bureau of Census does
its major job of head-counting
every 10 years, enumerators such
as Mr.. Wallerstein work in $50
areas throughout the nation every
month keeping things up to date.
One of the biggest problems met
by Mr. Wallerstein is that the av-
erage house holder is not aware
that this kind of census work is
carried on constantly In fact, his
work will continue right through
the 1860 census which is now going
on. This helps to explain why he
may have to make his regular call
when the 1860 census taker has
just been to see you.
Working from maps, Bureau of
Census officials in Washington, d.
G. decided upon the homes Mr.. Wal
lerstein must visit All families
are then notified in advance that
the enumerator will call. Mr.. Wal
lerstein visits the same family
once every month for four months.
Then there is a period of eight
months in which the enumerator
does not call. This is followed by
four more visits in the next four
months. All surveys are taken dur
ing the week of the 18th of each
month, except when this conflicts
with major holiday.
Mr.. Wallerstein, who carries out
his work under the Philadelphia
Office of the u. S. Bureau of the
Census, has good word for the
hospitality of the residents of
Sussex and Worchester Counties.
He says that most people are very
cooperative, sometimes offering a
cup of coffee on a cold day while
he asks his questions. In his ex-
perience, less than one per cent of
the people fail to give hearty coop
GRAFTON, though some have rescrva-
tiOns at the start. However, once
the enumerator explains that all
census information is strictly con-
fidential, the reservations usually
vanish. In particular, it is pointed
out by the enumerator, none of the
Information given to census taker
may be given to the Internal Rev.
enue Service.
Many governmental agencies use
the information gathered by the
enumerators. For instance, the sur
vey will at times include special
questions on consumer plans to
purchase automobiles, television
sets, washing machines, refrigera-
tors and houses. This specific in
formation was requested by the
Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve Board. Since this agency
has the responsibility for regulat-
ing the money supply of the u. S.,
the result of this months survey
might mean revision in the Re
serve Board policies in the next
few months.

sues in public education.

The speaker also pointed out
that Senator Kennedy or any
other candidate far out in front
for a presidential nomination
will have an aspect of his life
closely examined, including his
religious aff1liation.
ChicagOan Elected
The Chicago editor called on
newspapermen and women to
bring out to the American
people a realization of the fun
damental difference between
that religion a man carries in
his heart and the frequently
secularly manifested activities
of the church organization to
which he may belong.

The Chicago editor hit
strongly at the view that the
election of Senator Kennedy
would result in any weakening
of separation Of church and
state in the United States.

Senator Kennedy has re-
peatedly stated that he does

Chinese ART
To Be Shown

A priceless group of ancient
and contemporary Chinese
paintings will receive its first
public showing Friday at the
Jewish Com m un ity Center,
Sixteenth and @ streets, NV.
Twenty-six works from the
private collection of DR.. George
Kung-chao Yeh, Chinese Am
basSador to the United States,
will be on display through the
month Of May.
The rare and beautiful collec-
ton is as different from con-
temporary Western art as chop
sticks are from spoons. The
technique is so precise as to
make the average Western alb
straction look as if it were
painted with a gravy ladle.
Nature is used for beauty, to

political satire. The latter ap-
pears in Mice Nibbling at
Fruits" by the 18th century
artist, Ch'ien Hsuan. 1t is a

who were gnawing at China.
There also are two compos-
ite works by groups of artists.
The most famous, Flowers
and Plants" was painted in
1894 by the famed Ching dy-
nasty artist Wang Hui. and
seven of his notable pupils. To
a pine branch painted by the
master, each pupil added a diff
ferent fruit or flower.
There is a painting from
the Ming dynasty by the
famed courtesan, Msueh Su-su.

is one by Huang Chun-pi, tutor

THE adequate financing OF

problem facing school board

vinced that local school board
members will have to resolve
this problem in cooperation

An opposing view was ex-
pressed by K. H. Roberts, a
rancher from Kaycee, Wyo. He
proposed a resolution asking
no further Federal aid pro-
grams for education until a
complete and careful study has
been made, State by State, to
determine if each State has
exhausted its financial re-
sources in support of educa-

His resolution was tabled,

Early Photo Shows
The Mt. City Band

Over the years, Oakland has
supported a number of bands by
a number of names, but the pres.
ent group of music makers can
trace their start to the musicians
shown in today's old photograph
what is believed to be the original
Mountain City Band.
This group was organized under
that name in 1908, the same year
the photograph was taken at Jen-
nings. The building in the back
ground housed a long-disappeared
hotel.
At the time, the band was en-
gagged in a political tour promot-
ing the candidates. of Harvey
Speicher D. E. Bolden and Samuel
Lawton, who were running for
county offices.
Percy Frantz, of Oakland, a
member of the group, identified
the members after some thought
full recollection. He listed them as,

at this time, a newspaper account
