Hope census push eyed to lift population past ten thousand
City officials expect a special census in 1948 to generate revenue from the state and fund an emergency drive while awaiting the 1950 federal census. Hope projects annexations to bring residents beyond the current corpora tion ring and aims to cross the 10,000 mark by 1950, with 2 percent yearly gains since 1940 and estimates between 10,000 and 11,000. The move promises national prestige and greater business for locals as population growth accelerates.
