F. Evans, Manager T. C. Gladden, Manager Attention Called to | Approaching Census Kock Hill, Fob. 1.-?Mr. A. II. Bynum, supervisor of the 4th 8. C, Census District, which includes York, Chester, hum-aster, Kershaw, u/id Chesterfield counties, states that the machinery is nil set for the work ot taking the Distrklrution and Manufactures census, which is to start in the near future, and to be completed within thirty days from the starting date. He wishes in the outset to stress the importance of the undertaking, as the welfare of our people depends upon business, upon our factories and counting houses, our farms, arid uu<homes. These statistics must be reliably gathered und intelligently compiled that the progress of our country may be wisely guided-. The major questions of public policy are based upon statistics such as we are expected to gather. After careful study, comprehensive schedules have been drawn up to *ocure from every store or wholesale dealer such pertinent facts as sales, inventory, number of persons engaged, salaries, rent and other forms of expense which has to do with the important field of distribution. The census of manufactures is taken every two years, and is a familiar institution to those interested in its findings), I -vfb^k of the census taker should nojt' be considered coercive or m< ddlesorne. There is no disposition ,,n tiie part of those engaged to pi y into private affairs, as they certainly have no personal interest, bu* ?-a<h enumerator is merely a unit in an organization with a mighty task ahead, the accomplishment of which will I )c o! vast benefit to our people to!le tiveiy and individually. I'i most secrecy surrounds every census contact, and under the law anv information furnished shall be used mly for the statistical purposes for which it is supplied. No publication shall be made by the census office, whereby the data furnished by any establishment or individual can be identified, nor shall anyone other than sworn employees of the census office examine the individual reports. The refore, one need feel no hesitancy in answering fully and frankly the questions asked by the enumerator. This is a far-reaching and very important public service; and that it may be successful, the Department of ( < minercr asks that the people themselves be made to realize through the !:ne assistance of the press and otherwise, that they have a responsibility, and urged to join with confidence and full co-operation in the important undertaking. The following is a partial list of establishments to lx- visited: Power laund-ics, manufacturing plants ot all kinds, retail stores of all kinds, commission merchants, whole-sale merchants, all kinds; gasdine filling stations, co-operative buying and selling organizations, butc her* and abattoirs, custom and merchant tailors and milliners, automi bile repair shops, country buyeis and farm products, brokers, facte.r> (naval stores and others), manufacturer's agents, manufacturers' selling branches, supply houses and equipment dealers, restaurants, dyeing and cleani- establishments, sawmills (merchant and custom,) f'ou * and feed mills, turpentine stills, railroad repair shops, steam and electric; wholesale slaughtering establishments, mines and quarries of ail kinds (including washers, crushers. etc.) In fact, this census is intended to c*o\er all commodities bought and sold for a profit.
