 Statement from United Kingdom
Separate primary legislation for each census was required for censuses conducted in the United Kingdom before 1920.
Under Census and Devolution legislation there were, in fact, three parallel censuses conducted in the United Kingdom: one in England and Wales by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), one in Scotland by the General Register Office for Scotland and one in Northern Ireland by the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency.
The two main issues facing the United Kingdom in the planning of the management of the census were the expected difficulty (and which fully materialized) in recruiting field staff and the impact on the rest of the statistical office of conducting such a huge operation—the extensive build-up and run-down of staff employed on the census.

 immigration
By prescribing that immigration be restricted to 3% of the foreign born as of the 1890 census, the 1924 law prescribed an ethnic status quo approximating the 1920 census.
Although the proponents of the 1965 legislation continued to insist that the bill would not affect the ethnic balance of the United States or even impact its culture, it is difficult to believe that at least some of the proponents were unaware of the eventual implications.
Witnesses opposing the legislation complained that the bill was an attempt to subvert the ethnic balance of the United States established by the 1924 legislation (Divine 1957, p.

 National Park Service: Recreational Use of Land in the United States (Local)
There are 3,099 counties in the United States, but out of a total of 2,955 counties whose boundaries remained unchanged during the last decade (the boundaries of 144 counties were changed) 1,220, or 41.2 percent, had less population in 1930 than 1920.
In the 96 metropolitan districts, as defined by the United States Bureau of the Census in 1930, 247 counties are wholly or partially included, while in the metropolitan region as defined in this report (radius of 50 miles from the center of a central city or cities), there are, of course, many more.
Based on the trend of county recreational development during the past two decades, it is reasonable to expect combined action by counties in the metropolitan districts and regions of cities, wherever the metropolitan district recreational plan is not established, and where State action does not provide all the desirable recreational spaces.

 THE CHINATOWN FILES
Immigration Act passed by Congress excludes "Chinese women, wives and prostitutes." An immigration quota of 105 Chinese immigrants a year is established, based on one-sixth of one percent of the existing Chinese population in the U.S. according to the 1920 census.
What happened to the Chinese American community during the 1950s and 60s was largely the result of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, the unique history of discrimination against Chinese immigration to the United States and the anti-Communist witch hunts.
Diplomatic relations between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America are established.
