Census by Electricity Aims for 1900 Count
The 1900 census will be conducted under the 1899 act with a defined command chain, overseen by a director and statisticians to ensure method and timeliness. Some 308 supervisors and about 2,200 special agents will recruit enumerators for June first, employing Hollerith machines to process 75 million records as a national push to complete four census reports in two years. The plan emphasizes precise organization, clerical staffing of 32 hundred, and the use of punched cards to tabulate data on vast scales across districts.
