2. Captain Mallam to(lk over charge of his duties as Superintendent, Census OpenIng Oper3.tion~, !\( rth-Vl~est fr?ntier Province, on the IS.t ~f April 1930, and iSSUt:d remarks and Establish­ his first CIrcular of mstructlons to all Deputy CommIssIOners on the 12th Apnl. ment. In d,e Jr.lddle of May owing to poEtical disturbances r.e was deputed as Assistant Commissioner, Charsadda, in addition to his duties. He remained there until 6th September and during tre period of depl;ltation could rardly find any time to devote to the Census work. He was agam dc:puted as SpecIal rv:agistrate at Dera Tsmail Khan from the 17th September to 9th November 1)31, and as Additional Di.strict Magistrate, Peshawar, in January 1932. On the 8th Apnl 1932, he was appointed to. Kabul. From the. 8th April to 27th July K. Sultan Muhan:rrad K}lan was III cha.rge of operatIOns. en th.e 28th Juiy Mr. A. [). F. Dundas, I. C. S , was appolI1ted to complete t he writing vf the report. In the beginning the office staff consisted of a Head Clerk deputed from the

Revenue CO" miss:oner's OfficeJ one Jamadar and one Ordlfly. The Head Clerk was during tre first year paid at the rate dRs. lOS per' mensem which was raised in the following) ear to R s. 126 per mensem. One typist was employed on Rs. 50 per rrcnsem with effect from th.e IS! of June 1930 and was discharged on the 31st May 193 I. The above establishment was the only staff entertained for the Office of the Surerintendent during the whole operations.

3. Most of the fi;es awl papers relating to Accounts and Printing of the The record of Census Report, etc., preserved at tl:e 1921 Census were not found and the 1921 Census. Superintend\~nt in c"ns quen-::e suffererl considerable inconven~ence and un­ necessary 1ahotlr. In most of the districts the Censlls Regist('rs and Maps of 1921 had bt'cn preserved quite safsfactorily, but in the Peshawar District in spite of repeatcd requests from the Census office most of the valuable records had bcen destroyed. Owing to this tIle work of preparing Census Maps in each ~ub- Divis:on. the formation of Census Divisions etc I. took much longer than wou;d have been tl.e cafe had the records of the prevIous Census been avail­ able.

4- In the first instance a permanent advance of Rs. 75 was sanctioned by Permanent Advance. the Government ot India but in December 1930, this was enhanced to Rs 2(10 sub;cct to the con,.l:tion that the enhanced limit ,'"ould be reduced with the diminution of activities.

5. The first thing to be done in ~onnection with the Census was the draft­ Drafting and translation of ing of the Provincial Census Code on the lines specified in the Imperial Census forms and - C(Jde. It was prrferred to :ssue Part I of the Provincial Code complele instead instructions. of by Chapters and it naturally took a longer time than it would have taken if issued by Chapters. In order to carryon the work a Circular Letter was issued in the beginning of April dealing with all sorts of preliminary stages of the opera­ tions A complete Code in Eng~ish \yas issued in the end o(September r030 and copies in vernacu1ar were supplied to the officers concerned in the sc~oJ1d "Cl'k of November 1930. A separate Manual containing instructions for charge Superintendents, Supervisors and Enumerators in English and Urdu was also­ issued. In addition to these printed publications a Jarge number of impor~ant Circulflr::; were sent tQ all Deputy Commission'er-s', Polirica~ Agents, and' District Census. Q'tf!·ct!rs. The correspondence of the l':ol\th-West Frontier Province Census Office: being small in' the initial stages, the Head Clerk was.- employed as Translator in acdition to his cle.ticat worki. Most of th'e translations·- were read over to the Superintendent who insisted on the langu~ge used being, as simple a-s possible, the words heing those in common use. I A doubtful translation, it was found, can be tested 1>ettet by referring it to a few Patwaris than to linguistic experts. The only sugge:,tions) to he made- foo the improvement of tr.e forms are noted below ~- (a) All forms should be sE!1I1a]~-y nurnbetecf. (b) Miscellaneous forms -have hitherto beet! printed on papers of varying size, but the forn;s constituting the enurr,'eratioIi books are on paper' of prescribed quality and dimensions which has to be obtained specially for the Census under the Census Commissioner's orders). It will sa.ve a great deal of trouble if every miscellaneous form is also abridged or spaced out so as to occupy an exact fra-etion of a sheet of the papers presc~bed for- the Gegeral ScheduleS'. No,1({emands for vernacular forms in any langllage other than Urdu were received from any quarter.

Println!,. 6. In 193 I the printing of all lithographed forms and instructions ,wets entrusted to the Lakshmi Art Steam Press, Peshawar City, whilst the Circula-rs, Itlstructions and Report in English w-ere printed oy the Manager, Government Printing & Stationery Office, ]': orth-W-est Frontier Province, Peshawar. Apart from any danges which may occur in the Province, the next Superintendent will probably be well advised to place his forms and Codes \Urdu) with the L.akshmi Art Steam Press, Peshawar, and all other work.in English- with the Government Press. 1he contract which should be made with the pr:vate press must include special rates for all forms according to size: and these rates should vary according as Otl'e or botr sides are lithograplied. Some provision should be made for rates for miscellaneous printing sueh as that required for the Codes, Manuals and correction sEps and these should certainly not be based on a Government contract with another firm, nor should the¥ be rates which carr only be calculated by ~xperts. The contract should be for such work as the Superintendent plac-<:!S with the firm and not for all his forms. He should be abJe at any time to ti'ansfer his work to another firm or to expedite its execution by allotttng portions 'bi'it,to other firms. The contract should state that rates for any special work Can 'be fixed by agreement at Jess than the rates wh;ch would apply under th:: oh'gi'n'al contract. The printers should agree to keep all stones needed 'fot forms set-up until they receive an order from t1-~e Supel intendent allowing them to d~fAce or distribute the\n; they shQuld also 3gree to set apart adequate and sttifa>ble storage room for blank paper and prepared forms in bulk. They should further agree to distribute forms by hand, post rl11d rail, correclly counted (in bundles of 100 each tied with a string for convenience of counting) and securely packed, within twenty-four hours of rece1ving a distributio'\1 ordet. S~ReFintendent should endeavour to' get his forms rr:nted well in advance j 3S fat as possible the total requirements for each form should be printed off in one batch and the whole of the foreseen requirements for Enmneration, Slip Copying and Sorting should be finished some three weeks before die date for tl'e fil1al Census j however careful1y. the estimates are \Yorked out it is probable tJ-r.at lirgent- indents fer enumet'atioR- forms will come in during the last fortnight.and th'at indents for a.dditional slips will be received after slip-coRying has been stafted.

Elaborate instructions for the formation of Census Divisions are con­ ·:Census ·Dlvlslons. tained in Chapter III of the Provincial Code of Census Procedure 1931 and there is no nece~sity for further elucidation save to emphasise that th~ Kanungo's cir..::1e shJuld form the most convenient charge in rural areas. Assistants may be appointed for exceptionally large charges or c:rcles. Towns should be divided by Wards and Mohallas. Charge Superintendents of rural and ~rban areas should an work under the D'strict Census Officers who generally happens to be Revenue E~tra Assistant Commissioner. Sub- Div:sional 0 fficers, in rural areas and the Secretary M unicipa1 Committee in an urban area, are the persons best fitted for the work. The nature of the Agency employed as Charge Superintendents, Supervisors and Enumerators, is shown in tabular form in Statements 1 and lA appended to this Chapter. It is important to insist on a proper numbering of charges, circles, blocks and houses. Charges, to be numbered by distr:cts, must include military charges, i. e., the Deputy Commissioner of each district must allot to each Military Station Commander one or more charge numbers and include them in his charge registers with all the civil charges.- In many cases the Military charges were left out until the last moment. Circles should be numbered by Tahsils, Cantonments and Municipalities irrespective of c;harges. Numbering of blocks is by circles. Numbering of houses should be by villages, wards or Cantonments.

-The Prelimi- I I. Chapter VII of the Provincial Code deals with the preliminary c:numera­ -nary Records. tion and the instructions given therein proved entirely suitable. The instruc­ tions regarding numbers of forms to be distributed and the system of .keeping small local reserves worked ad'01irably, and very few indents for extra forms were received from districts.

The preliminary record for these tracts was checked either on the afternoon of the 26th or the Trorning of the 27th February. The areas so treated included the Kagan Valley in Hazara and certain outlying tracts :n Bannu District.

16. Arrangements were made for the preplration and despatch by wire Provisional totals. of provis~onal tota's from distric:s and agencv hearlquarters. All Deputy Commissioners and Political Agents were requested to takl:! necessary steps to have their tota;s ~elegraphed within a week of the t:tk;ng of the Census.

News was indeed ·receiveo. that the All India Congress 'CO'mmittee had instructed its lo.:al·bodies to ~boycott the Census. But ·no such :boyco,tt was for a moment attempted in this Province. On tire cQntrary, all communities (and particularly the minority communities) in this Pr.ovince w.ere more than usually alive to the political significance of the presen~ Census, and to the necessity for obtaining an accurate recoid df the strength -of their communities.

District 20. Rules r.egarding district census charges are given in Chapter IV of the Censlls Expenditure. Provincia} Census Code. It may be seen from Statement I II at the end of this Chapter that the total district expenditure bas been very considerably reduced from that dt 1921. The reduction from Hs 2,7j9-S- Z to Rs ..772-7-6 was produced by reduction in almost every item, but particularly by the ~limination of the chalges for remuneration of census officers in Kohat and Bannu and by economy lu house ... numbering in Peshawar. Outstanding good .w.ork in connection with CenSLiS operations in districts wa rewarded by Sanads \ Certificates). - Three classes of sanad were adopted as ion previous occasions, one printed in gold, one in red and one ,in Black. The number of sanads for each district was fixed according to the population figures but was modified according to the recomm endations of Deputy Commissioners.

The Census Act !a)fs down that census records are not open to inspection or admissible as evidence in a Court -of Law. In the present census a note to th:s effect was printed "on every caver and ·on every general or household schedule. In spite of this some Courts -sent summonses to Census officials to present the census records as evidence. The summonses were returned unserved w.ith a note explaining the situation. Lest any thing of the sort may happen in the next fe~v years, enumeration books at headquarters have been destroyed as far as co~umn 3 (nalle) before being .sold) and Deputy Commissioners of di~tricts have been asked to take Similar action. 7 I I I ...01 ~ ~ ~ M ~IMI I ~ ~ t') .... ~I~I I I I

·Organization. In: the Censuses of 191 t and 1921 slip copying was done in the Centra! Office at Peshawar. Advantages and defects of this system are discussed in paragraph 1 of the Imperial Census Code, Part II, Chapter 2. On the present occasion slip copving was for the first time carried out in districts. In Kohat Bannu and Hazara slip copying was done in the Tahsil under the supervision of Tahsildars. In Dera Ismail Khan it was done at district headquarters under thQ supervision of t he Revenue Extra Assistant Commissioner. At the same time the Central Office was opened at Peshawar in which the slip copying for Peshawar District 3Hd tr.ans-frontier posts was carried out. The opening of this Central Office was of advantage for the subsequent organization necessary for the work of sorting and compilation. The District Kanungo of Dera Ismail Khan and Tahsil Office Kanungos from Hazara, Bannu and Kohat were sent to the Census Office, Peshawar for training in slip copy!ng on the 23~d February 193 I, and­ returned taking with them the blank slIps, forms, registers, etc., required in connection with copying operat:ons on the following day. They were paid their actual expenses. These Kanungos then gave similar training at their own headquarters to the Patwaris and Kanungos who were to do the work or supervise it in Tahsils and districts. '18 'Staff and Arrangements for the accommodation of copyists and supervisors who were accommodation. Patwaris and Kanungos were made in Tahsils by the Tahsildars, and in Dera Ismail Khan by the Revenue E~tra Assistant Commissio~er. The Central Office establishment at Pesrawar conslstpd of a Deputy Supenntendent selected from among the ranks of I\'aib Tahsildars and Naib Tahsildar candidates at Rs. 180 per mensem, two Inspectors, one of whom was a field Kanungo from Peshawar District on Rs. 90 per mensem and the other a graduate on Rs. 80 per mensem . one Record Keeper on Rs. 80 with an Assistant on Rs. 50; an Accountant o~ Rs. 75 per mensem ; five 'Kanungos as..5upervisors on Rs. 50 and two outsiders on the same rate; 52 Patwaris, mostly supplied from Peshawar District, who were given Rs. 7 per mensem .as. census allowan~e in ~ddi.tion t<;> th~ir grade pay, 25 others employed on similar pay accordmg to .thelr qualIficatIOns, and four English copyists at Rs. 35 per mensem. The memal staff attached to the office consisted of two chaprasis only; the sweeper, chowkidar and water-carrier of the Government Mehmankhana in which the slip copying establishment was accommo'dated were given small allowances according to the requirements of the different stages of work. When the office of the Superintendent was in the Victoria Memorial Han a similar allowance was given to the menials of that building. A statement at th~ end of this. report sho",,:s det,ails of the establishment in each stage of the work With the penod for which It was engaged. The revenue staff deputed for slip copying was required to attend the Census Office on the 6th M arch 193 I, but it W;JS not till a week later that all the Patwaris had arrived.

Material About 70 feet of wooden shelves two ~ were fixed in one room to required make a Re~ord Room f~r the copying bo?k f?rms, slips, ~tc. Each copyist was before the provided wlth a box of pigeon. holes for h.ls slips, a pencil, some .threa? and a receipt of the books from sufficient number of blank slips or all kmds. One hundred and sIxty mne boxes districts. containing 24 pigeon hole.s, six .horizo~t~l1~ and f.our vertically, were required. Some difficulty was expenenced ill obtamnlg these In a hurry and in future it will be advisable to make all such arrangements as long as possible before-hand.

Instructions The method of tabulation is to be found in Chapter I of paragraph 2 of the ·to staff. Provincial Code of Census Procedure.

Christians and yellow for others. The symbols used for sex and cIvIl condltlon are to be found in the

;Provincial Code, Part II Chapter I Paragraph 2. The abbreviations used are to be found in the same chapter. An Urdu Iranslation of the Imperial Ce:1sCls Co~e, Part II Chapter II, was given to the supervising staff for guidance in checking copying work, and in filling in blank c,)lumns in the sche lules wherever these might have been accidentally left blank by enumerators. No special slips were devised for infirmities. but as in previoBs census pract:ce the ordin:try slips were used. The daily out turn of these was Jess than 1'50 owing to the time occupied in searching the enumeration books.

The daily out put fixed for copyists was the copying of 500 slips as in 192 J • Calculation 'Gangs of 10 ITen under one supervisor and an assistant were formed. The of rewards and lines. method of calculating rewards and fines wa" to pay Re. I for every 500 extra slips copied in the course of a month. Copyists employt:d on tl:e slips of rural areas Wt'H:' more easily able to earn rewards than those doing slip copying of towns and cantonments who fcund it difficu:t to reach the daily s~andard of 500 slips. S:ip· copy;ng started on the 12th March 193 I and finis bed in the Central Office on the 15th April 143 I . A s!atement at the end of this chapter gives details of slip-copying offices in the districts and tahsil headquarters, The daily out-turn of slips did not reach the standard ra~e of 500 s'lips in out-offices since the copy:r:g was not done continuously by the whole staff. It was at first intended to pay rpwards to tl:e Revenue staff who worked in out offices to enable them to meet the t.'xtm expenses incurrt'd by them for leaving their circles and wo:-king at headqllartt-rs. but when iL was found that the staff had not worked up to the desired stanc1ard, l,alting and travelling a:lowances for the journeys to and from copying offices were paid on the hasis of the time within which the work should have bten finished at the standard rate of 500 slips a day.

In the case of out-offices the cuties of Rer.ord Keeper were performed bv the Supervision. office Kanungo. Fie;d Kanungos and selected Patwaris worked as SupE'r~;sors and Assistant Supervisors The checking of the work was dvne by Tahsildars at Tahsils and by ~ he Revt'l1ue Extra Assistant Commissioner and District Kanungo in Dera Ismail Khan. In the Central Office it was under the direct charge of the Deputv Superintfndent. Mistakes in the earlier stages were about one or two per cent. but soon decn~a5ed to two or three per mille. Supervisors aru Assista.nt Supervisors bf'gan by checking every entry made by copyists. but afterwards checked from 5 to 20 per Ctnt, of the entries accordin~ to the standard of the particular copyist. The Deputy Superintendent and the Inspectors c' ecked the work of the Supervisors and Assistant Supervisors. Since the accuracy of H'e cenSllS tables and all subsequent work depends on the accuracy of tl'e slip copying, the checking must be as thorough as possible. The staff emp!o) cd on slip copving is one which is not generally in the habit of sitting in offices and is, therefore, anxious to be rid of the work as soon as poss:ble and return to its own headquarters. The slips sent to out offices were sufficient excc-pt in the case of Sikhs. 'Telegrams were 'eceived asking for more red sEps for Sikhs, but the s!.lpply in stock in the Central Office also gave out, and since no more red paper could be found at short notice slips previol;sly intended for :\1'uslims had to be dved red. The stock of Muslim and Hindu slips was sufficient., but it will be advisable in futme to keep sheets of paper in stock for emergency printing for the smaller communities. As a ru:e s::ps from slip copying offices were received in good til1'e. During the preparation of village tables and the making up of boxes s~me difficulty was expenenced as in some cases totals by villages ,vere not given in register A and in sotre cases many mistakes \vere detected in the totals that were given. Such errors and omissions are most disconcerting.

A special gang was organized under a supervisor to prepare village tables in Village tables. accordance with paragraph 7 of the Imperial Code of Census, Part I!. Chapter 3. These tables were prrpared from register A and provided all material for Imperial tables numbers J to 5 and No. 16. The village registers were afterwards bound and sent to their respective districts and Tahsils for record. They are not 'printed but office copies of them are preserved in the Civil Stcretariat along with .other necessary census records. 12

SORTING.

Making up of After the slips have been received from copying offices and the work '0 boxes. slip- copying in the Central Office is complete, there is the intermediate stagef before sorting can be begun, of making up the boxes and counting the slips put into them. Detailed instructions for this are contained in the Imperial Code of Census, Chapter III paragraphs 5 and 6. The slips received and copied were in the charge of the Record Keeper, and for this reason the making-up of the boxes was entrusted to him under the immediate supervision of the Deputy Superin­ tendent. As already noted, there were a great mallY mistakes in registers A :as­ received from copying offices. This resulted in the difficulty that the slips when counted did not tally with the totals in the registers, and no sorting could be undertaken until the totals of the slips and the totals in the registers had been made to agree.

Sorting staff. The copying-staff of the Central Office was not sufficient for the sorting operations of the whole Province, but was supplemented by revenue officials from each of the districts who had been employed on copying work in their own head­ quarters. These persons brought with them a local knowledge of castes andl occupations, and were therefore of greater value than any who could have been employed casually on similar rates of pay. In this manner eight Patwaris were brought in irom Hazara, five Patwaris and one Kanungo candidate each from Bannu and Kohat, and seven Patwaris and two Kanungo candidates from Dera Ismail Khan. They worked as Sorters and Supervisors from the 15th April 1931. The total number of Sorters was not less than 100 and not more than 110 at any one time.

Procedure In The sorters were arranged in gangs of about 10 persons, the whole being Borting. under two Inspectors. Sorting began on the 18th April and was finished on the 31st May. The procedure observed was in all cases that prescribed in the lI].perial Code of Census, Part II, Chapter III, paragraphs 8 to 39. Translations in Urdu were printed on the back of all the Sorter's tickets for all the tables for which sorting was required. Later instructions received in the form of circular

I lette.rs etc. were explained verbally to the staff. Each sorter was given two boxes containing altogether from 2 ,000 to 35.000 slips. It was found by experience that the number was in some cases too large_ for ..the boxes provided, and that slips could' not be taken in and out of the pigeon· ho;es without becoming twisted.

Lessons It was found advisable that slips for males and females should be put in learned in the course of separate boxes. It would a~so probably prove more satisfactory if sorting were sorting. done by tahsils or districts instead of for the whole office at one t!me. As soon as the slips of one tahsil or district are ready, sorting for that area should be begun. The compilation section should also be started as soon as sorting is undertaken. In this way tbe irregularities reveaJed by the checking of the compilation staff can be quickly rectified, and the difficulties experienced in one table of a tahsil can be avoidt d in the same table of another tahsil which is slightly behind the first. No Urdu translation of Chapter III of Part II of the Provincial Code of Ce~sus "as printed, but sue h a translation would have been of value to sorters and supervisors since the instructions on the back of the tickets can not be full enoug b to cover all the points dealt with in the code. The standard daily tasks for sorting main tables are given in paragraph 18 of Chapter 11 I, and are based on recommendations and experience of the Superintendents of 192 I The following Tates were fixed for the ta:bles :- Table No. VI {Rural 20,000 Urban 15,000 VII 4,000 " VIii 6,000 " IX 4,000 " X { Rural 4,000 " Town ... 3. 000 XI 4,000 " ••• Xii I { Males ... ••• 9 000 " Females ... 15,000 13

Rewards and fines for sorters were worked out in the same way as in the case of copying. The time spent and required to finish the sorting of a table were calcu­ lated, and the difference of the time saved or extra spent was taken as reward or fine after deducting six hours as a day's working period. The task fixed was reasonab!e and it was difficult for a sorter to earn a reward unless he worked before or after office hours.

COMPILATro~ AND TABULATIO~ Instructions for compilation and ta'-1ulatioll are to be found in Charter IV of Stall. Part II of the Imp£'ria1 Code of Census. The whole work of cO'11pilation from the chfcki.ng and posting of sorter's tickets to the preparing of the final. tables for the press was done by the COl1lpilation Staff, undei the immediate supervision of the Deputy Superintendent. The compilation office was divided into two sections viz. (1 I that in \vh:ch the tables were compiled and prepared for the press and (2) that in which the tables were checked independently of the compiling section. The subs:dia;y ~ab1es were prepared by a se1ected staff working with the Deputy Superintendent. The best English-knowing sorters were employed as Compi!ers and two or three Supervisors were also engaged during comiJilation and tabulation.

The diffeicnt stages of compilation were :- Method of compilation, (I) Checking of sorter's tickets. tabulation and Section I (2 CO'llpiEng of tables. ~ checkin~. f (3) Prepar;ng of tables in fi~rm for the Press. Section I I {(4) Special checking. (5) Printing_ The work of the checking branch was to check the circle numbers and totals in the sorter's tickets, so as to ensure that all the tickets for each table had been received and that the tota1s were correct. These sorter's tickets were then c hcckrd by the special check:ng s~aff, who brought all the errors and irreg:'larities to the notice of the Dtputy Superintendent so that, if necessary, further investigation m:ght be marIe. The compi!ing staff posted the so;:'ter's tickets in L e compilatiun registers according to the instructions given in the Code. The" unal tables Jl branch then prl'p!}rcd the final tables from the compilation registers. The final tables were scrutinised by the special checking staff, who decked all t he totals and app1ieG the tests and cross references laid down by the Census Commissioner, for India in his Memo. No. 3')-Comp., dated tLe 2nd July 1931. The Deputy Supf'rintendent compared the final tables with those of 1921 and all striking changes were noted.

The :11131 tables along with compilation registers were then submitted to the Preparation Of Superin~el1'!('nt for a!Jproval and IJrders. ]n tl e case of unexpected variations final tables. fUlm the figures of 192 I, a further enquiry was ordered. Fair copies were prepared for the press and for the Census Commissioner for India for approva1. The proofs on rcctipts fran: the press were again checked by the Deputy Superintendent aVId tIle Superintenrlent. During the checking of the proofs it was found that second and third proofs were frequently required. Besides this it was also found that it was not suffic~ent to check only "those figures in a second or third proof which had been correcte-o in t he first proof. Figures which had been corrected in a previous proof were frequently found altcrei in a later proof, so that every figure in each proof had to be checked. Final orders for printing were given, when the tables had been fina~ly approved by the Census Commissioner for India.

The preparation of tbe Occupation trtble is a lengthy and comp1icated Special process, and three compilers under a Supervisor were separately employed for difficulty or certain tables. .the sta..;:ti\lg_of the Compilation work, to prepare the classification sheets from the sorter's :ttckets, before taking in ~and the actual compilatian. The occupa­ tion tables were prepared by this staff. The PH!paring of the language tables also requires sp2cial attention. The entries in the sorter's tickets before their being posted _in the compilation registers'should be classified carefully according to Sir George "Grierson's scheme. The language classification made by the general public and the enumerators can nott-easily be made to correspond with Sir ..George Grierson's scheme. 'The cOIVpilati.on.anc\- preparatioR of the remaining tables r~quires no special comments j they an; .prepared accorning to the instructions laid ,dO,wn in the €ode. ' ,

THE COST OF TH E CENSUS Statement I and II appended 10 this chapter s1-ow respectively the actual cost of the Census O}erations stage by stage, with total expenditure up to 3]st DEcember ]932, and an estimate of the probable charges for printing, binding and distribution of the Report. The nett cost of the operations, after deducting Census receipts and recoveries ma('e from Municipalitles, is approximately Rs. 90,000. Con~pa';ison with the figures of 1921 is misleading, since on the present occasion the pay ano Census allowance of the wI-ole staff has been debited to the head Census while in ]92] only the allowances were debited to Census and pay was debited to the departments from which personnel was borrowed. If the pay of the Superintendent, the heaviest item of this natm e, is excluded from the total as was done in 1921, the increase in expenditure is from Rs. 49,562 to Rs. 53,4[0, ,qn increase of about eight per cent. i this compares favourably with the lucre,\se vf 7'7 per cent. in the population, and gives the same figure as in 192 I of F s. 2 I '6 expenditure per 1,000 of the population enumerated. In view of the fact that there has been a rise during the decade of some 25 per cent. in the average pay oLall concerr:ed, including those whose pay contributes in a large rreasure to printing charges, a much Jarger increase in total expenditure might have been expected. The cost of enumeration was Rs. 756-4-0, of Superintendence, including the pay of the Superintendent, Rs, 52,366, of Abstraction and Compilation R s. 22,92S-S-S and of Printing and Stationery charges Rs. 18,209-11-[. The amount recovered from M unicipa lities and Notified Areas rose from Rs. 2,5493-6 in ]921 to Rs, 3,95°-11-3 at the present Census. The increase is due both to an increase in population and to a rise in the rate of contribution. The contribution was calculated at the rate of Rs. 150, representing three months' salary of one tabulating clerk, per 1,000 of the population concerned.
