PLAzADELAY NETTLES
HOUSE Committee
Press Department of Justice O&eia
for Reasons for Withholding
Money.
WANT THE WORTHY ONES PAID

Evidently nettled over the long-drawn-
out delay in settling with the owners Of
the Union, plaza properties. members of
the House Committee on Public Buildings
and Grounds yesterday piled Attorney
Morgan Beach, of the Department OF
Justice. with questions bearing upon the
hitch in the department that has tied up
for still longer period the savings Of
many years of some of the people con-
cerned.
Representative Summer. of Texas. asked
him IL the Presidents refusal to affirm
the awards nullifies the entire proceeding
Mr.. Beach replied that a matter of that
character is now In one Of the courts
to be ruled upon. Replying to Repre-
sentative Post, he said the fact that an
appropriation for the condemned prop
erty had been made in form different
from that authorized by a previous act
would not affect the condemnation in the
least.
Representative Lenergan. Of Connecti-
cut, asked whether the President could
not select certain properties to be paid
for and reject others. Mr.. Beach begged
not to be pressed on that point He in
timated that there were internal rum
blings over that point in the Department
Of Justice at present.
Representative Kreider, of Pennsyl-
vania, who is not a lawyer, made the
observation that to his lay mind the
committee could get speedier action II II
went to the Department of Justice and
asked for the reasons why the President
cannot select a part of the awards for
approval and reject others.

TO DISSECT new

Miss Agnes Van valkenburgh
Promises Treat to the
Librarians.
TO SHOW aFOOLISHNESS"
Benefits of Circulating Library Are
Pointed Out by Charles K.
Bolton. of Boston.
TO SHOW ''FOOLISHNESS"

.'Foolishness" in many Of the best
sellers in fiction will be pointed out to
the Librarians attending the annual con-
vention here of the American Library
Association tomorrow afternoon by Miss
Agnes Van valkenburgh, of the New
York Public Library School.
Miss Van Valkenburgh has one Of the
most interesting parts in the whole con-
vention. All visiting librarians look for
ward to tomorrow afternoon with. anxiety
as Miss Van valkenburgh's opinion upon
such matters usually carries considerable
weight, II is said.
She will simply read extracts from the
books, the titles of which were not an
nounced, as Miss Van Valkenburgh hopes
to surprise people The secrecy has only
intensified the curiosity of the librarians,
and a large attendance is assured.
1 hope to show, by simply reading
some few extracts from the best novels.
lust what people have been paying good
money for" said Miss Van Valkenburgh
last night THE extracts must speak
for themselves, and I feel confident that
after 1 have finished reading tno COM
ment will be necessary, that those who
have bought such books will be con-
WINGED they might have spent time and
money to much better advantage.
There is a large number of trashy
books on the shelves that have got by
the publishers and captured the reading
public in a manner and to an extent
that amazes me"
Speaking of ''The Present Trend,
Charles K Bolton. librarian of the Bos-
ton Atheneum, read the review Of library
progress in the last half century. To
George Tichnor, historian of Spanish
literature, Mr.. Bolton gives credit as
the master mind that saw the benefits
derivable from a great circulating library
for the people. with popular books of the
day, purchased in sufficient numbers, so
that they might be read and discussed
while still a factor in the life of the
time. He declared 1t was to Tichnor
that We owe the governing spirit Of the
public library of today.
Robert W. de Forest, president of the
Museum Of Art and Of the
American Federation of Art. spoke upon
the exhibitions of art in libraries. He
the importance of art exhibit
tions and the advisability of showing the
best art available.
Miss Leila Mechlin spoke on the educa-
tional work of the American Federation
