What the Census Takers
Will Find in U. S.
The Census Bureau expects
that when all the figures are in,
they will confirm this flourishing
picture of family life in thG
United States:
1. Our population has .increased
more in the las 10 years than in
any 10-year period in history. The
reason: a sharp rise in the birth
rate, and continuing low death
rate.
2. A higher proportion of
younger people and older people
than ever before. The reason: im
provement in health at both ends
of the scale.
3. An unprecedented increase in
the number of married couples.
The reason: couples are marrying
younger, living together longer.
4. Fewer persons in the average
household, even though the num
ber of children in a .family has in
creased. hTe reason: more older
folks, because of better economic
conditions, are living by them
selves, instead of with their
children.
5. More private homes, apart
mens and trailers to accommodate
families.
6. The number of people living
on farms is continuing to drop.
7. More women working at ou
side jobs.
Job Requirements
Since most of the census takers
will be women, here’s aninkling
• of the requirements: A U. S. cit
izen of at least 18, and able to
devote full time to the two weeks
or so that the job will take.
Enumerators will be paid on a
piece-work basis as a rule (some
will get hourly rates) and should
be able to earn $12 or $13 a day
for eigh to 10 days, and some ad
ditional time for transcribing
