BY WALTER D. HICKMAN THE James T. White A: Cos., publishers. has added another volume to The National Cyclopedia of American Biography, This time it is known as Volume "D’’ 'sls) and embraces the biographies of present day Americans. This is the fourth volume of the series and contains the biographies of contemporary American statesmen, jurists, authors, educators, churchmen, scientists, industrialists, financiers and others who are “doing the work and moulding the thought of the present time.” Under the head of “The Roosevelt Administration,” authentic sketches with discussions of their accomplishments, are listed President Roosevelt, Francis Perkins, Mrs. Roosevelt, John Nance Garner. Cordell Hull, and others high and low in the Administration. These biographies are not political thunder essays but carefully and authentically written accounts of these people. Every biography seems to need another chapter because the man or woman concerned is alive and at work at his or her job. That Is one great advantage of this cyclopedia. It gives one information upon which to judge men

rand women in high public offices ! and also to formulate some opinion of their possible future actions. This series is one of the most valuable collections of our time. Not : only should every public and school library have Volume “D,” but every modern reader who is trying to keep abreast of the march of events should have it. The biographies of every state Governor is in this volume and of course Gov. Paul V. McNutt of Indiana is present. u u o THE completeness of this volume is proven in the biography of Justice Benjamin N. Cardoza, undoubtedly one of the world's greatest legal scholars. This biography j takes nearly two complete pages and includes an analysis of his written opinions as well as his philosophy of the function of law which has made him famous. The publishers announce that the current volume has a comprehensive record of the Roosevelt Administra- ; tion. The biography of President Roosevelt is 9000 wwds and is a review of his entire career and official summary of his Administration. The publishers state that “its voluminous facts and figures were

checked and corrected by the President himself.” Another splendid feature of the biographies is that special attention has been given to the movements, the institutions and industries of the subjects of the biography. The Boulder Dam project is told in the biographies of Walker R. Young, construction engineer, and Francis T. Crowe, superintendent of construction. The story of the Red Cross is told in the 13 years that John Earton Payne was its chairman. All important projects and accomplishments of great institutions are to be found in this volume. Just as complete are those represented in university and college life, judges and lawyers, poets and journalists,, the fine arts, industrialists and men of science. The volume has been splendidly illustrated. One feature is the handy and comprehensive index. It's really a masterpiece. C 0 A L DEALERS ELE CT Logansport Man Named President by State Merchants.
