Census Questions Are Confidential

By Editor

The Census Bureau of the Federal Government have requested us to say to our readers that there need be no fear whatever in answering the questions which will be asked by those officially appointed to take the census of the United States. These questions are for purely statistical purposes, and the answers will not be used in any way in the matter of assessments, taxes, or in fact by any other person or persons. The matter is wholly confidential, so that none need be afraid of answering in the fullest, frankest possible way the questions that will be propounded by the census taker.
