PROSPECTUS
CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX
OF THE

Nth the session of 1928. They have had such
w;dc circulation, and have been so universally ap-
proved and sought after by the public that we
deem it necessary only in this prospectus TO say tnat
they will be continued at the next session OF Con-
rress, and to state, succinciy, their contents lnc
form in which they will be printed, and the prices
for them. n.-ss =,
The Congressional Globe is made up Of the daily
proeeedings of the two Houses of Congress Ihe
apeeches Of the members are abridged, or condenscd
to bring them into reasonable or readable length
All the resolutions offered, or motions made' are gV
on at LENGTH in the movers own words; ana tne
yeas and nays on all the important questions. II
is printed with small type-brevier and nonPareil-
on double royal sheet, in quarto form' each num-
Der containing l6 royal quarto pages. II printed
az fast as tho business done in Congress furnishes
matter enough for number-usually one NUMBER
but sometimes two numbers week. WehaVe lnVa-
riably printed more numbers than there we're weeks
in 4 session. The approaching session OF Con-
prcss it is expected, will continue months' II so
subscribers may expect between 80 and4o numbers
which, together, will make between SUI and boO
royal quarto pages.
The Appendix is made up of the Presidents annu
al message, the reports of the principal officers OF
tho Government that accompany it and all the
long speeches of members Of Congress, written out
or revised by themselves 1t is printed on the same
form as the Congressional Globe, and usually makes
about the same number of pages. Heretofore on
account of the set speeches being SO numerous and
so long, we have not completed the Appendix until
one or two months after the close or the session; but
in future, we intend TO print the speeches as last as
they shall be prepared and of course shall complete
the work within few days aftcr the adjournment.
Each of these works is complete in itself; but 1t
is necessary for every subscriber who desires tull
Knowledge of the proceedings of Congress- TO nave

gutyn the synopsis of the speech, or any denial OF
its correctness, as published in the Congressional
Globe, the reader may turn to the Appendix to SEQ
