It was preferred to :5S: e Part I of the Provinria: Coce complcte irs:ead instructions. of by Chapters and it naturally tock a longer tirre than It would bve taken if issued by Chapters. In order to carryon the wo;k a Circular Letter was issued in the beginning of April dea!ir.g with all surts (if preli:ninary stages of the oper;:J.

tions ~ c.omp:t'te Code in Eng:is.h was issued in ~he end of Septerrber J930 , and COplfS In vernacular were suppbed to the officers cO'lcerred in the seceJlld "elk of November J930. A separate Manual containing instructions for cba.rge Superintendents, Supervisors and Enumerators in English and was also­ issued. In addition to these printed publications a large number of impor:ant Circulars were sent to all Deputy ,Commissioners, Politica.l Agents and District Census 0fti

Printing. 6. In 1931 the printing 0'£ all lithographed forms and instructions was entrusted to the Lakshmi Art Steal!l Press, City, whilst the.Circulars, lnstructions and Report in English were printed oy the Manager, Govemrnemt Printing & Stationery Office, ;\' orth-W-est Frontier Prov.ince, Peshawar. Apart from any cj,angts which may occur in the Province, the nex-t Superintendent will probably be well advised to place his forms and Codes (Urdu) with the- Laks.hmi Art Steam Press, Peshawar, and all other work in 1;:ngJish with the Government Press. The contract which s.hould -be made with the pr'yare press must include special rates for all forms according to si+t-and these rates should vary according as one or both sides are lithograHl'ed. S,ome provision should be made for rates fOf'miscellaneous printing such as that requirt:d for the Codes, Manua1s and correction slips and these should certainly not be based on a Government contract with another firm, nor should they, he. r~es which can only be calculated by ox.perts. The contract should ,be for such work as -the Superintendent places ·with t-he firm and not for all his f.orms. He should be able at any time to transfer his work to another firm or to ..expedite its execution by allotting'portions "of;:;it.to other firms. The contraclt should stat~ that rates for any special work Icag..;l:>e-fixed-by agreement atJess than the r,ates which would apply under·th~ ongtRal cOfltract. The printers should agree to keep all stones needed for forms Iset-:up' until they receive an order from t1; e Supel intendent allowing them to ,deface or distribute them; they should also agree to set apart adequate and suitable storage room for blank paper and prepared forms in bulk. They should further agree to distribute forms by hand, post and rail, correctly counted (ip bundles of 100 each tied with a' string for cOi1\'cnience of counting) and securely packed, withiJl twenty-four hours of rece:ving a distribution order. Sup.print,en,d.e.nt should endeavour to get his forms rr:nted well in advance j as far as possible the total requirements for each form should be printed off in one batch and the whole of the foreseen requirements for Enumeration, Slip Copying and Sorting.should be finished some three weeks before the date for ti·e final 0ensus j h'owev,~r c.aJ:efuRy the estimates are work-ed out it is probable that ur~~nt indents for enumeration forms will come in during the last fortnight and trrat indents for additional slips will be fe€eived after slip-copying hp.s been started.

Oat. of the 7. The 193 1 Census was held_ on the night of tne ;26th February 193J.. Census. TIhe date as far as_ this Province was conce~rned proved' suitable in all respects except that a slight di:ffi,cuJty' was experiem:ed in -rJ-e Slip -Copying work in the Dera Ismail Kh-an district owing to the fact that the Girdawari fell at about the same time.

Elaborate instructions for the formation of Census Divisions are con­ .-census ,Divisions. tained in Chapter III of the Provincial Code of Census Procedure 1931 and t?ere is no nece~sity for further elu~idation sav~ to emphasise that th; Kanungo's Clr.:;le sh::mld form the most convement charge 111 rutal areas. Assistants may be appointed for exceptionally large charges or circles. Towns should be divided by Wards and Mohallas. Charge Superintendents of rural and urban areas should all work under the D:strict Census Officer.::; who generally happens to be Revenue Ehtra Assistant Commissioner. Sub-Divisional Officers, in rural. areas and the Secretary Municipal 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 I and I A 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, z·. 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. [n many cases the Military charges were left out until the last moment. Circles should be numbered by Tahsils, Cantonments and Municipalities irrespective of charges. Numbering of blocks is by circles. Numbering of houses should be by villages, wards or Cantonments.

House 10. The in structions in Chapter V I of the Provincial Code were found numbering. sufficimt and suitab1e.

The Prelimi­ I!. 1 Chapter VII of the Provincial Code deals with the preliminary tnumera­ nary Records. tion and the instructions given therein proved entirely suitab!e. The instruc­ tions regarding numbers of forms to be distributed and the system of keeping smalllocal reserves worked admirably, and very few indents for extra forms were received from districts.

'Inspection of 1'2. The Superintendent visited every Tal: sil and district headquarters once Enumeration at least during the house numbering and again during the preliminary enumera­ records. tion.

Use of 13. In the smaller Cantcnments and Civil Lines house-hold schedules were household dispensed with and regular English schedulf's used, but in all the larger European schedules. residential areas, such as Peshawar Cantonment, house-aold schedules had to be used owing to a lack of trained enumf'rators who were literate in English.

Special 14. Special arrangements necessary for the enulY eration of travellers on .Arrangements. railways, travellers by boats, pilgrims, carters, tour_ing officials, Poli~e .Stations, Jails, etc, are described in chapter. IX and appendIx II of the Prov.mclal C~de. These instructions were found sufficIent and worked successfully 111 practIce. The only criticism received for future use is that passenger tickets should be distribut~~ only to the head of the Railway Ad'llinistration and not direct to stations 5 Non­ 15. The Censlls was synchronous throughout the Province except in synchronous certain areas which were considered unsafe at night on account of the disturbed areas . .condition of the border, or where snow and long distance; involved rendered it impossible for the E'numerators to visit all the houses in their blocks by night. The preliminary record for these tracts was checked either on the afternoon of the 26th or the l1'0rning of the 27th February. The areas so treated included the Kagan Va1Jey in Hazara and certain outlying tracts in District.

16, Arrangements were made for the preparation and despatch by. wire Provisional totals. of provi~ional totals from districts and agency headquarters. All Deputy Com'missioners and Political Agents were requested to take necessary steps to have their totals telegraphed within a week of the taking of the Census. These totals were expected to be wired before 3rd March 193 r. The dates of their actual receipt are shown below.

On the 6th March 193 I the totals were telegraphed and tabular statement sent as well on the same day, which was also kept ready. The delay in the receipt of totals from was due to snow ()n the Lowarai Pass which prevented the pa~sage of mails from Chitra1.

17. The comparative accuracy of the provisional totals may be seen from Their the table below. They compare at first sight unfavourably with the figures for Accuracy_ 1921 when the total error for the Province was + '03 I per cent. instead of the £gure of + '07 for the present year. The individual errors were however considerably larger in 1921, and to some extent cancelled one another ~ut in th~ total. The absolute variations for H.azara. and for Trans-frontier posts, for example, were 3,482 and 2,919 respectively 111 1921 and 481 and 17 in the present census :-

Attitude of the 19. With thtrpoJ:itrcal situation in the North-West Frontier Plovince still public towards Census incompletely restored a.ftE:'r the Ul:}settring events of t930, it might be: supposed operations. that the atmosphere would have been inimical to a:n operation requiring as an ~ssential factor for its success the co-operation of all classes of the population 'Y·hatev.er their political convictions. News was indeed received that the AU India Congress Committee' had instructed its lo.:al bodies to boycott the Census. But no such boycott was for a moment attempted in this Province. Qn the Gonurary, all' communities ·(.and p?-rticulatly the minority communities) in this Pr:ovince were more th~n usually alive to the political sigJ,1ificance of the present Census, and to the necessity for obtaining an accurate record of the strength of their communities.

DJstrict 20. Rules regarding district census charges are given in Chapter IV of the Census Expenditure. Provillc~al Census Code. It may be seen from Statement III at the end of this Chapter that the total district expenditure has been very considerably reduced from that of 1921. The reduction from Rs 2,759-5-2 to Rs. 772 7-6 was produced by reduction in almost every item, but particularly by the elImination of the charges for remuneration of census officers in Kohat and Bannu ~nd by economy in, housewl:lUmbering in Peshawar. Outsta:nding gO'od work in connection with Cens[.;s operations in districts wa rewarded by, Sanads, (Certificates). Three classes of sanad were adopted as·on previous o,ccasions, one printed in gold, one in red and one ~n black. The number of sanads for each district was fixed according to the population figures but was modtfied according to the recommendations of Deputy Commissioners. The ~tatement bdaw shows the number actually issued both in the present census and m 1921 :-

The Census Act lays down that <;ensus 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 COver 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 with a note e~plaining the situation. Lest any thing of the sort may happen in the next few year.s, enumeration books at headquarters have been destroyed as far as column 3 (name) before bein.g sold, and. Deputy Commissioners of districts have been asked to take similar. action. 7 .. I /, 0 I ~ III / 11) " C., I I ,,'" 11) I I bIl" 10 ..... 00 00 0 t-.. ..., .."V I ..C') I I ~.s t-. <:! ~ '"

«)rlanlzatlon. P'-- In the Censuses of 1911 and 1921 slip copying was done in the Central Office at Peshawar. Advantages and defe~ts of this systtm are discussed in paragraph I 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 TahsildarR. In Dera Ismail Khan it was done at district headquarters under the supervision of the Revenue Extra Assistant Commissioner. At the same time the Central Office was opened at Peshawar in which the slip copying f9r Peshawar District and trans-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 copying on the 23rd February 193 I, and returned taking with them the blank slips, forms, registers, etc., required in connection with copying operations 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. ( qO£l

Patwaris and Kanungos were made in Tahsils by the Tahsildars, and in Dera Ismail Khan by the Revenue Extra Assistant Commissioner. The Central Office establishment at Pes]lawar consistp-d of a Deputy Superintendent selected from among the ranks of Naib Tal:sildars 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 graauate on Rs. 80 per mensem . one Record Keeper on Rs. 80 with an Assistant on Rs. So; an Accountant o~ Rs. 75 per mensem ; five Kanungos as supervisors on Rs. 50 and two outsiders on the same rate i 52 Patwaris, mostly supplied from Peshawar District, who were given Rs. 7 per mensem .as. census allowan~e in addi.tion t? th~ir grade pay, 25 others employed on SImIlar pay accordmg to theIr qualIficatIons, and four English copyists at Rs. 35 per mensem. The menial staff attached to the office consisted of two chaprasis only i the sweeper, chowkidar and water-carrier of the Government Mehmankhana in which the slip copying establishment was accommodated 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 Hall a similar allowance was given to the menials of that building. A statement at the end of this report shows details of the establishment in each stage of the work with the period for which it was engaged. The revenue staff deputed for slip copying was required to attend the Census Office on the 6th March 193 I, bot it W::l S not till a week later that all the Patwaris had arrived.

An Urdu. ranslation of the Imperial Ce'1sus Cole, Part II Chapter II, was given to the supervising staff for gUldance in checking copying work, and in filling in b:ank co]umns in the sche.1u:es wherever these might have been accidentally left blank by enumerators. No special slips were devised for infirmities, but as in previOllS census practice the ordinary sli~s were userl. The C:a:~y out-turn of these was less than 150 owing to tl:e time occ~'pied in searching the enumeration books.

The daily -out-turn of slips did not reach the standard rate of 500 s~ips in out offices since the copying was not dOlle continuous:y by the who~e staff. rt was at first mtcflded to pay rpwaros to the Revenue staff who worked in out oftces to enab!e them .to meet the extra expenses inl'urred by them fo:, leaving thf+ circ:es and working .at headquarters. but when ~t was found that the staff had not worked lip to the desired standard. halti:1g and travelling allowances for the journeys to and from copying offict's were pair! on the has:s of the tirr:c within which the work should >have bten fi:1:sl:ed a: the st:~Ilr1ard rate of 500 slips a day.

In the case of o,:t-offices the duties of Record Keener were performed bv ~.re Supervision • .office Kanungo, F:eld Kal11mgos and se:ected Patwaris worked QS SUDervisors and Assistant Supt'rvisors. The checking of the work was dune by Tahsildars at Tahsils and by ~re ReVPl1Ue Extra Assistant Commissioner and District Kanungo .in Dera Ismaii K' an. In t he Central Cffice it was lln(~t'r the direct charge of the Deputy Superir.t( ndent. Mistakes in tre ear~ier stages were about on{' or two .per cent. b:.t soon 2prreased to two or three rer mz'lte. Supervisors arc Assistant Supervisors began by ch~ck;ng every entry made by copyists. but afterwards checked from 5 to 20 per Ctl:t, of tl'e entries according to the standard of the particular (opyist. The Deputy Superinte::1dent and the Inspectors c ecked the work of the Supervisors and Assistant Supervisors. Since the acc-:..rracy of tJoe census tables and all 5ubsequent work depends on the accuracy of the slip -copying, the checking rr:ust be as thorough .3S possib:e. The staff emplo) ed on 'Slip copying is one which is not generally in the habit of sit'ing in offices and is, therefore, anxious to be rid of tr..e work as soon as possible and retu:-n to its own -headquarters. The slips sent to out ofEces were sufficient except in the case of Sikhs. Telegrams were received asking fur more red slips for Sikhs, but the s~lpply in 'stock in the Central Office also gave out, and since no rr.ore red paper coc~d be found at short notice slips p:-cvious;y Interded for M us~ims [lad to be dyed red. The stock of M usiim and Hindu slips was sufficient, but it will be advisable in future to keep sheets of paper in stock for emergency pr:nting for the smaller ..communities. As a rule slips from slip-copying office5 were received in good time. During "the preparation of village tab!f's and the rr>aking up of boxes some difficu:ty was experienced a5 in some cases tota:s by vi::ages were not given in register A and in some cases many mistakes were detected in the tota;s 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 II, Chapter 3. These tables were prepared from register A and provided all material for Imper;al tables numbers 1 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 Secretariat 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 stage,. 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 I II 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 many mistakes in registers A as. received from copying offices. This resulted in the difficulty that the slips when counted did not tally with t~e 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 Centra1 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 he.?ld­ quarters. These persons brought with them a local knowledge of castes and: 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 from 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 193 t. The total number of Sorters wa6 not less than 100 and not more than 110 at any one time.

Procedure in The sorters were arranged in gangs oi-about 10 persons, the whole being' .orting. under two Inspectors. Sorting began on the 18th April and was finished on the 3 I st May. The procedure observed was in all cases that prescribed in the lmperial 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 letters 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 ca£es too Jarge for the boxes provided, and that slips could not be taken in and out of the pigeon-holes 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 also probably prove more satisfactory if sorting were sorting. done by tahsils or districts instead of for the whole office at one time. 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 the 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 avoid{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 Census" as printed, but such a translation would have been of value to sorters and 5upervisors since the instructions on the back of the tickets can not be full enoug h 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 Ill, and are based on recommendations and experience of the Superintendents of 1921. The following rates were fixed for the tables :-

During the checking of the proofs it was f(l, 11,.1, that st'cond and ~hird proofs were freqm'ntly requ:red.

THE COST OF THE CENSUS Statement I and II atpended 10 this chapter srow respectively the actual -ccst of He Census Orerations stage 1: y stage, 'with total e>;penditure up to 31St Dfcember ]932, and an fsfmate of the probable crarges for prinfng, "binding and distribution of the Report. The nett cost of the operations, after deducting Census receipts and .recoveries mare from Mun:cipalities, is approximately Rs. 90,000. Con-pa:-ison with the figures of 192 I is misJeaciog-, sioce 00 the present occas;Qo the pay -and Censl's allowar.ce of the wrole staff has reen dlb:ted to the head Census while in 192] only tre 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 nature, is excluded from the total as was done in 192 I, the increase in expenditure is from Rs. 49,562 to Rs. 53,4 to, ~n increase of about eight per cent. j this compares favourably with the incre lse vf 7"7 per cent. in the population, and gives the same figure as in 1921 of F s. 21'6 expenditure per 1,000 of the population enumerated. In view of the fact that there has been a rise during the decade of some 2S per cent. in the .average pay of all concerned, including those whose pay contributes in a large rr.easure 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 lhe pay of the Superintendent, Rs. 52.366, of Abstraction and Compilation RS.22,925-5-5 and of Printing and Stationery charges RS.18,209-11-1. The amount recovered from M unicipaEties and N ot'rfied Areas rose from R s. 2,:;';9 3.6 in 192 I to R s. 3,950- I I 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 contribut:on was calculated at the rate of Rs. 150, representing three .months' salary of one tabulating cJerk, per 1,000 of .the population concerned.
