GENERAL NOTE:
Weight variable VCF0011/VCF0011A must be used if
distributions including 1970 data are desired:  see VCF0011.
Note that use of VCF0011/VCF0011A as a weight reduces the
1970 total N for this variable:  form 1 whites who should appear as
code 0 INAP cases are excluded from the 1970 total N.
1970 NOTE: 
If range of 2 adjacent numbers was given by respondent
the value coded was the one towards the center of the scale (for
