Census recount urged to lift Kansas City tally
Civic leaders push for counting 30 000 more people to push Kansas City's 1960 census over half a million. Area supervisor Robert Benson reports only 32 uncounted in one tract and samples from four others, trimming expectations for a full-area recheck south of the river. Chamber president Herbert Wiggs criticizes the method and supports a house-to-house canvass with 125 volunteers to cover areas south of the Missouri River.
