Olson, director of the Census Bureau's regional office in Chicago. Census Bureau representatives will visit each home chosen for the Quarterly Household survey, and will inquire about any plans to buy a house, car or major household appliance during the ne*t year. Questions about home repairs and alterations will concern those made during the past three months, or planned , for the near future*. The Census Bureau conducts surveys of buying expectations and home repairs every three months, and these surveys are important guides to the growth of the national economy. The Bureau points out that houses, repairs, appliances and cars account for a substantial share of the more than $500 billion which consumers spend each year. The siirvey provides both - a current measure of the amount of consumer spending on these itenis and advance information about future trends in spending. The advance information provided by consumers has been very accurate to date. For example, on the basis of surveys late in 1967 and early in 1969 the Census Bureau has forecast 9.9 million new car sales for all of 1968. The number of new ear sales forecast for the first six months of 1968 was nearly identical to the number actually sold. Answers given by all families and households in the survey are confidential, and are protected by federal law.

Those who would be ineligible to sign such a petition would be people who voted in either primary election or in any party caucus. Bill Strip of Crystal Lake was appointed chairman of this project.

Hare of Crystal Lake will lead a team into a precinct and canvass it for registration purposes. Information gained will be made available to the precinct committeeman for follow-up.
