You don't have to speak the language to know that olal
word of praise for this delicious Mexican fiesta,
is the right
Vital records ate just that. . vital.
In this age o f bureaucratic docu­
mentation, everyone has need o f
copies o f records o f birth, death,
marriage or divorce. An application
for benefits from the Veterans A d­
ministration or Social Security or for
a passport or marriage license must
have the inform ation contained in
these records and sometimes copies of
the records themselves.
Under the alien amnesty program
now in Congress it w ill be important
to prove U.S. birth or residence in this
country for the past few years.
These records are stored perman­
ently by municipalities, counties,
states and the f ederal government.
The Consumer Education Research
(. enter (CERC) found that there was
little uniform ity on where the records
were available. In some states birth
records are kept by the city and some
by the county. To further complicate
matters, often older records are held
in a different place than current ones.
The non-profit consumer group
found many people had great d iffic u l­
ty in locating the records they needed
In many cases it was necessary to
make expensive long distance tele­
phone calls just to find out where to
write. For that reason CERC is pub­
lishing a book entitled Guide to L o ­
cating Vital Slalistics. This book
contains a staie-by-state listing o f the
addresses and telephone numbers o f
where each record can be found, the
cost o f a copy o f the document and
sample form letters containing all the
inform ation needed to get these and
other vital documents.
For those whose records are in for-
eigh countries, there are instructions
on where to write for birth and death
records o f U.S. citizens as well as
birth records for alien children adopt­
ed by U.S. citizens.
To obtain a copy o f this useful
Ixxik, send $4. including postage, to
