I am disappointed by its apparent failure to develop a strategy estimating the size of the Spanishorigin undercount. I regard this strategybuilding as an essential step in determining census accuracy. There exists a number of possible sources: the Immigration and Naturalization Service data on the nationality of immigrants. available statistics on the migration of Puerto Ricans to the mainland. statistics on Spanish surnamed from the five southwestern States. and various school enrollment and employment data kept by Federal. State. and local agencies. to mention but a few sources. The Census Bureau has the constitutional mandate to compile and publish accurate data on U.S. population.
