CENSUS SPECIAL AGENTS Applicants WUI be Given Practical Tests of Qna.Utlcations November s--The Requirements. Cep.sus Director E. Dana Durand announces. Navember 3 next as the date far making a practical test of the que.llfi~tlons of applicants for app9intment as special agents for the collectllon of the lllth census statis- tics or manufactures and mines and · quariea. Blank applications may be· obtained now by writing the Bureau of Census. No applications which· are received after the close of busi- ness October 26 will be considered. In :a. circular of] instructions rela- tive to the subject the director states that about January 1, '1911), the bu. reau will employ from 1,600 to 1,800 special agents. As far as possible. It is desired to obtain for this work per- sons who have had college or uni- versity· courses in statistics or eco• nomil!ls, and persons wha have had serviee in the accounting depart- ments of some manufacturing or oth- er busineBB establishment. Whel). an application is complete In every particular It should be mail- ed to the Director of the crensus; 'Washington, D. C. Care· should be taken to amx sutnclent postage to the envelope containing the application .. · If the applicant's statements as to business training and experience and.' education are satisfactory, and the appLicatio.., is complete in every re- · spect, a e,ard will be mailed to the app]lcant advising him when and where to appear to complete the pre- scrilbed practical test in filling out a schedule such as is ;-equired in the actual work of a special agent. ApplicaJ:l,ts must be carMul to state In their applications ·the place select- ed for taking the practical test. In this State examinations will be held In 13 cities, amon~ them being Utica, Syracuse and Ogde.Isburg. The ap- plicants must· be citizens of the Unit- ed States, between the ages of 20 and 6 0 Years, in good health and physic- ally able to perform the required duty and of ·good character and habits. These facts. must be vouched for by at least two persons who are person- ally acquainted with the applicant. Applications will be accepted from women having the required experi- ence and education, but the opportu- nity for t~elr employment in this wark Is slight, and but few, if any, such appointments will be made . Director Durand states that, gen- erally speaking, the ctllt!es of special agents will consist . in o btainlng in person, from manufacturing estab- lishments and mines and quarries, the stat!tstics require·d by law as in- d!lcated In the prlnt~d · schedul~s with which they will be rtirnished. These statistics cover investment. quantity and· value of products and of raw D:!a- us&4, number of employe& baste . The chief special agents will be employed from six to fifteen months and the assist~nt< special agents from three to six months . Applicants who have bad satisfac- tory experlenoo -4n the collection ot statistics in census work will be ex- Q:ilsed from the, practical tests and placed on the <eligible register. Also those who have passe!} the civil serv- Ice examlnatjon tor special agent and examiner, bureau of labor. Persons coming within these exceptions. bow- · ever, will be required to file the ap- plication iA completed form. Selections lrom the eligible regis• ter will be made as the needs of the service require. Ell~bilitx_ Is not of itself a guaranty of appoint- ment bnt selections will be made solely with reference to equipmen,t and availability for appointment. There will be no geographical ap- portionment of appointments as such. It will be by the policy, how- ever, as far as practicable, to assign appointees to duty in \the localities in which they reside, and It therefore follows that the number of agents to be appointed from a. given 13tate or loca}lty will depend largely upon the '\mount of work to be done iu that ftate or locality.
