Prof. Frank w. Taussig, an econ
omist of Harvard University. spoke of
the value of the governmental records
to the study of history. economics ami
politics. He was followed by Gaillard
Hunt of the Library of Congress, who
dwelt upon the value of it's records to
the government itself He pointed out
that without proper arrangement,
classification and housing of the rec
ords it was impossible to carry on the
work of the government rapidly and
efficiently. He also pointed out what
great financial loss to the government
might be incurred through the de-
struction of its records.

Striking Feature of Program.

A striking feature of the program was
an illustrated talk by Leo F.. Stock of
the Carnegie Institution of Washington,
who showed twenty-five orfthirty pictures
of present conditions in the federal ar
chives. In some places he showed valua-
BILE records next to steam pipes or water
pipes, and showed pictures taken in attics
of federal buildings and in cellars. There
were pictures of rented quarters and of
public corridors in the government build
ings, where the departments have been
forced to store their records.

States Have Led the Way.

The next speaker was Prof Benjamin
F. Sham mbaugh of the University of
Iowa. who described what the various
states of the American Union have
done for their archives. He pointed out
that in such states as Virginia, North
Carolina, Mississippi. Alabama and Iowa
the states have far outdlStanced the
national government in this important
matter. He showed pictures of condi-
tionS in many of the state archives eS-
pecially remarkable. among these being
the buildings for the state archives at
Raleigh, \. c., at DeS MoineS, Iowa, at
Toneka. Kan, and at Hartford. Conn.
One of the interesting features of
Prof. ShamDaughs paper was a de-
scrption of the method of record keep
ing employed by various corporations.
He showed several pictures of d model
archive house built by the Canadian
house of commerce and also gave views
of the filerooms of the New York Life
Insurance Company and of the record
storage house of the Provident Life
and Trust Company of Philadelphia.
Prof. Shambaugh was followed by
Waldo G. Leland. secretary of the
American Historical Association, who
showed some thirty or more views Of
foreign archive houses. especially
cities of Belgium, the Netherlands.
Spain and Germany He emphasized
the fact that almost all European coun-
tries are far ahead of the United States
in the matter of caring for their rec
ords, some of the best administered
archives being those of the Dutch
towns and provinces.

Iliary conference of the Pan-American
Scientific Congress was held this morn
ing in Memorial Continental Hall. The
meeting was called to order in the ban
quet room of the hail by Mrs. Robert
Lansing at 10 O'Clock. Mrs. Lansing
welcomed the delegates to the congress

ish. which was followed by a brief ad
dress in English. Following the ad-
dress. Mrs. Lansing turned the meeting
over to Mrs. David F. Houston, who
presided for the remainder of the

modate the many women who had
t1ocked to the hall as delegates or on
lockers to the proceedings. The meet
ing was thereupon transferred to the
large auditorium in the building.
