The augmented sample of size was determined so that the 95-percent tolerance band (two relative industrial research laboratories and small business concerns contained standard errors) for the estimate of the total number of scientists and about 750 establishments. engineers for all industries combined would be about 3 percent.

This information provides a basis for evaluating the country's current scientific and technical manpower, resources and serves as a guide in develop ing programs to strengthen the Nation's scientific potential. Gentlemen: This survey is being conducted, as in 1961, on an establishment basis. If your company is mad e up of several plants or establishments you m a y receive more than one questionnaire. Each establishment for which a report is requested has been selected in a carefully drawn sample. A reply i 8 needed for each designated reporting unit, even if the unit does not employ any scientists, engineers, or technicians. However, if it is not feasible to send in a separate report for each unit, please follow one of the alternative reporting procedures described o n page 4 of the questionnaire.

We wish to thank you for the questionnaires which have been returned to us. However, we have not received reports for some of the units for which we sent questionnaires. Implicate questionnaire(s) for these units are enclosed, Including a copy of each for your files. It is of great importance to the success of this undertaking that we receive reports from all of your establishments.
