Many Nose-Counters
Several Give Up Their Jobs
Br United Press International
Many ot the nation's noses
remained uncounted today
because some census takers
got tired of counting.
Census Bureau spokesmen
around the country reported
that up to 10 per cent or more
ot the counters had quit be
cause of low pay, bad weather
and too much work caused
by the population explosion.
One Frankfort, Ky., count
er ran into an unexpected
hazard when a man chafed at
the questions and punched
the pollster in the eye.

with the normal selge of mid-
April foul weather, slowed
nose-counting In many areas
by as much as a week.
Chicago District Director
James O'Neill said he had
lost 300 counters, mostly
through bad weather.
"If people have to fight
rain and snow on a strange
Job, they aren't as likely to
stay as they are if there is
pleasant spring weather," he
said.
"After we trained the crew
chiefs, some of them looked
out at the rain . . . and called
in to quit, even before start
ing to work," he said. "I had
to order Jeeps to get them
through the mud."
Plenty To Go
Low pay and the popula
tion boom also were factors,
O'Neill said.
He said Chicago - area
counters had . already can
vassed 102.S per cent of the
estimated population and still
had plenty to go. Forms were
running low. "I've had as
many as 60 sitting idle at
one time waiting for mate
rials." "We had a girl in an In
dustrial section working on a
piecework basis," O'Neill said.
"She canvassed the area and
made 47 cents. It took her
four hours."
In Conroe, Texas, a spokes
man told about a counter
who "drove the wheels off her
car for two weeks," and made
$38. Two other counters and
a supervisor also quit at Con
roe. A Louisville, Ky., director

they had to work."
At Hopkinsville, Ky., a
counter was stymied by five
families who found questions
on flush toilets a "mite too
embarrassing" to answer.
St. Louis officials reported
that several owners of un
licensed rooming houses re
fused to let the counters in
for fear the data would go to
the city building department,
despite strict Census Bureau
rules against such action.
One-third of the St. Louis
crew leaders were fired in a
reorganization to speed the
count.
Denver officials reported a
school vacation problem com
mon to many communities.
The city's schools were on
vacation the week before
Easter, they said, and many
families took short trips,
leaving no one at home to
help the counter when he
came to call.
In Spokane, Wash., a di
rector revealed "great un
happiness" among counters
assigned to cover huge, sparsely-settled
areas.
Director Mrs. Beatrix Mc
Elroy told about the Okano
gan City, Wash., census taker
who had to travel 600 miles
to count 50 persons.
In Louisville, 45 of 870
counters had quit since the
count began April 1. Thirty
of 800 dropped out in Wash
ington, DC., and another 30
quit in Columbus, Ohio. Phoe
nix, Ariz., reported the loss
of ."many" counters.
District of Columbia cen
sus supervisor Louis Alexis
explained that "some didn't
understand this work. Some
came In Just for the excite
ment. . "It's a tough job," Alexis
sighed.

Some Fish Sleep,
And Some Don't
Miami -IUP0 Do fish sleep?
The answer, according to
Capt. Bill Gray of Miami's
Seaquarium, "Some do and
some don't."
Gray listed the razor fish,
pudding wife, wrasse and
bluehead (species on which
few people could dispute the
captain) as among those that
do.
Marlln, swordfish, tuna and
all members of the mackerel
family are counted among
those which never get a wink
of briny shuteye. Another
ocean insomniac is the shark.
"They keep swimming from
the moment they are born un
til they die," he said. "Move
ment forces water through
their gills and permits them to
breathe. If movement is forci
bly stopped, they soon die."
