Title: Social Security board goes into the census reports. Washington, D.C., Jan. 12-37. Anticipating heavy demand for proof of age in connection with Social Security benefits, the Census Bureau began today to film [?]26,000,000 names that have been recorded in the last two censuses. These two censuses will contain facts which will be of value in ascertaining the age of persons attempting to qualify for benefits of the Social Security Act. R.R. Hopkins is shown in the picture with the machine he invented to film the pages of the Census Bureau reports as he films them. Watching him is Census Bureau Director William L. Austin
