Census plans begin
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The project coordinator of a special state census to be conducted next year said yesterday that administrative headquarters for the headcount would be located in Topeka. The operations office might be here, or in Wichita or Johnson County.
Brent Anderson, legislative counsel for Secretary of State Bill Graves, said there also would be regional offices of the census in Topeka, Wichita, Iola and Johnson County, probably in Olathe or Prairie Village. Graves is doing the preliminary planning for the census.
Anderson said that western Kansas probably would not have a regional office because it is so far flung and that individual contact people will be placed in each of the 53 counties in the western part of the state.
"We will probably have someone in each county, probably a county official, who will be responsible for completing the count for that county," Anderson said about the arrangement being planned for western Kansas.
Anderson said that he had looked at 10 potential sites for the census headquarters in Topeka. He plans to seek lease proposals from the owners of those properties next week and wants the state office open by June 1.
The administrative headquarters will be the main office of the census, including the director, payroll personnel and administrative and data processing people. The operations officer is responsible for point for the population data, including census enumerators and data gathering and entry personnel.
Location of the operations office will be dictated by such things as
available postal services, central location and availability of personnel. Anderson said
The Legislature passed a bill this session and Gov. Mike Hayden signed it into law April 15, creating the one-time census to be used to reapportion the state's legislative districts in 1989.
It calls for Graves' office to conduct the census, counting people where they are living next Jan. 1 and certifying the figures by Nov. 1, 1988, so the Legislature has them available for the redistricting task in the 1989 session.
Graves' office has placed the cost of the census at $3.36 million, of which $47,000 is being sought for the current fiscal year so that an administrative headquarters can be leased in Topeka. Another $3.31 million is sought for fiscal year 1988 to pay other costs of the census, including those associated with the operations and regional offices.
The money has not been appropriated, but is expected to be included in the omnibus appropriations bill that the Legislature will vote on next week when lawmakers return to Topeka to conclude the 1987 session.
"Until the Legislature appropriates the money, we're not going to make any final decisions," Anderson said.
He said that present plans were to mail out, either from Topeka or Wichita, one million census information cards to every household in Kansas about Feb. 1, 1988.
Those receiving the cards will be asked to mail them back to one central office, where computers will be used to sort out the returns, which then will be processed to count all Kansans at their home residence.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Star Co. won a jury verdict yesterday in a libel suit filed by a former city building inspector who said he was defamed by an editorial cartoon.

McMillan's lawyer, Craig A. Strayer, argued yesterday that publication of the editorial cartoon by cartoonist Lee Judge amounted to "McCarthyism" and urged the jury to award damages of up to $5.5 million.
