Mauzy. with 17 points, led Webster’s scoring and Archer scored 18 points for Cromwell. Steel milts in United States used 112 million tons of soft coal last year. Gals who live alone seldom do.

Capitol Report By CHARLES HALLECK Ranking hign on the list of places of interest for visitors to Washington is the 60-year-old Library of Congress Building across from the Capitol. An average of more than 2.000 persons a day wander through the. ornate galleries, inspecting priceless documents of the past- or peering down from a balcony on what has been called the world’s' largest reading room. Probably few visitors realize, however, that they are surrounded by a collection of books, pamphlets, music, photographs, maps and other items that are estimated to be worth two and a quarter billion dollars. What is’ more, the value increases from year to year. Congress started the institution 157 years ago, when the, Library was • established as a “collection of books.” to be used as reference material by Members of the House and Senate. Today the Main Library Building and its much larger Annex — the latter opened in 1938—are bulging with collections, and the Librarian of Congress is wondering what he is going to do for more space. An annual report for fiscal 1956 puts the number of pieces owned by the Library at more than 35 million, with roughly a million pieces being added each year. Some of the collections are bought with money appropriated by the Congress or with funds made available to the institution by private individuals and groups. Many valuable items are donated by public-spirited citizens or foundations. Biggest category of the entire collection is manuscripts, with some 15'million on file. Pamphlets and books number nearly 11 million. But the Library is especially proud of its two million pieces of music, described in the report as the “most comprehensive body of musical literature known.” One of the notable achievements of the past year listed in the report is the establishment of a National Union Catalog which lists books owned by hundreds of other libraries all over the North American continent. With this card file, the Library of Congress can tell a patron who may live on the West Coast the location of the library nearest to him that has the book he wants. While there is no charge for most of the services offered by the Library, the institution does do a "business” which approached two million dollars in receipts during the past fiscal year. One source of income is the sale of Library of Congress printed cards to other libraries. Income from such sales reached the million dollar mark in fiscal 1956. In addition tlie Library took in $883,269 in registration fees for issuing copyrights on 224,908 items during that same period. This income is all turned over to the U.S. Treasury. While the original purpose of the Library—to serve Congress—is stilS maintained, more than a half million people, from casual readers to scholars engaged in research, availed themselves of the Library’s facilities in a 12month period. What was once just a “collection of books” housed in a small room in the Capitol Building has grown in volume and value through the years until now provision is made for 76 guards to stand duty, protecting what in all probability is the greatest establishment of its kind on earth.
