How vast q business is carried on by
Government Printing Office may be gath
cred from the fact that more than 5000
operatives are employed, at wages ag-
gregating about $a,9Go. 900 year that

more than 100000 pounds OF book
printing paper were required. The
statement frequently made that this is
the most extensive printing office in the
world is borne out by its operations, al
though by no means true oi its building.
The latter is to the last degree unsuited
to so vast business, being old, over
crowded, and notoriously unsafe. The
rapid development and increase OF gov
ernment printing Is shown conspicuous
ly in the figures OF its annual cost. In
1910, all the printing and bsncing of the
Government required an expenditure Of
only $1,000. In a Report made to Cor
gress in 1859, the whole cost from 1910
to 1853 was stated at $s.574,S4S. while
the printing for the ak years 1853 to
1850 cost S., ,462, ,655; or about as much
in six years, as in the previous thirty.

the final Establishment of the Govern.

expanded business OF multiplying books
and documents ever since is shown in

They should receive TO more considera-
