NEW FEDERAL CENSUS HERE TO START JAN. 3 The City of Anaheim due to its unusual growth, together with expansion by annexation find it to their advantage to have a special census taken under Federal Supervision, starting on Tuesday, January 3, 1956. This special census is consistent with the Federal census taken each ten years, and further, the state of California recognizes only Federal census for its per capita distribution of tax funds. Our last census taken January 7, 1955, totaled 30,059 a gain of 7,901 persons over the census of October 20, 1953. The cost of the census is approximately $5,500, which will be absorbed by the first quarterly allocation of state monies to the city based upon the new per capita basis of population as predicted upon the new population figures developed by the census count. Applications may be received from the Personnel Officer, Chas. E. Griffith, at the personnel office in the city hall. It will be necessary to recruit about 75 persons from which the Census Supervisor, Mr. Benjamin K. Kundin, will select 42 persons which he will need for clerks, crew-leaders and enumerators, for a total of 108 people.

Some Facts About the Cost of METRO SERVICE Some Facts About the Cost of METRO SERVICE The fare you pay to ride a Metro bus is determined by many things. The public usually sees only the motor coach, the operator and perhaps a station or terminal. But there are a lot of other direct and indirect items that must be paid with the money you drop into the fare box. A few such items include wages, materials, fuel, tires, tickets and transfers, insurance and taxes. In taxes alone, Metro is now paying over $1,600,000 annually for the privilege of providing transit service. In our complex, modern life, even such a seemingly simple matter as transportation to your job or shopping area involves a great capital investment...the service of thousands of specially trained workers...and costs amounting to millions of dollars each year.
