Primary The primary purpose of the census is to make a count, of the population of each state to determine representation in congress. The constitution provides that the seats in congress be apportioned among the states every 10 years.

It is certain from sample estimates that one effect of the census will be a shift westward in the political balance of power. When congressional representation is reapportioned according to the latest census figures, probably in 1952, population gains should give the three Pacific coast states 10 new seats in the house. Since there are only 435 seats, the increase in congressional power of the western states' will be at the expense of the southern. enclosing electric motor controls, i A special invitatioh has been extended architects, architectural The Red Cross fund goal of is in sight and should be reached by the end of this week, it was reported today by the Rock Island chapter, Charles Fiebis Son.
