WHAT LIBERTY FUND
| WILL Be APPLIED TO
Is Needed for Buildings al
CantOnments for Librarians,
and for Shipping Books

At the meeting of the board this ev-
ening of the Salem public library, plans
will be discussed for the raising of an
additional amount for the war library
fund. The sum that has been given vol
unfairly during the past two weeks, is
about $425, while the quota for Salem
is $3.50.
Those interested in the work are not
discouraged. In fact, they all are of
the opinion that the collection of $425
thing of which to be proud. All other
cities in the state have solicited for
funds or put on entertainments.
However, in order that Salem may
make a proper showing by the close of
the week, the board this evening will
decide on some plan of action. In the
meantime there is nothing to prevent
any one from sending in voluntarily a
one dollar subscription.
There seems to be some haZy ideas
as to why so much money is needed
for this library fund. According to the
best of information, this 100000
fund is to be used for the construction
of library buildings in each of the can
tonments, and each of the buildings
viii cost about $4,000. But the cost OF
the buildings is not all. Besides buying
thousands of books in order that each
library may be fairly balanced, there
is the expense Of librarians to care for
the books at each eantonment.
To care for library where there will
be probably from 10000 to 10000 men,
will require experienced librarians. In
the smaller camps, such as Camp
Withycombe, the librarians will coop
crate with the Y. NJ. C. A. in the handl
ing of books.
Then books must be sent TO France
and there is much work in the proper
caring and indexing, all requiring ex-
perienced library help.

Buenos Aires, Midnight, Sept. 2S.-
Via London) Martial law throughout
all Argentine to preserve order in the
utter paralysis of practically all busi
ness caused by the general strike was
imminent tonight.
New strikes are occurring almost
hourly The tieup has spread to many
industries heretofore only partially af-
fected.
Some time during the night strikers
again eut the trans-eontinental tele-
graph wires for the second time isolat-
ing Buenos Aires from the outside
world, except via London cables.
1t was understood that President Iri-
goyen is preparing a message to con-
gress, formally stating that Germany s
apologetic explanatory action in the
Luxburg case eliminates all reason for
a rupture with Germany by Argentine.
The Central and South American Ca
BILE company's offices at New York to-
day claimed TO be working without in
terruption to their lines to Buenos Aires
so far as they were aware.

OF $3.50, many of the autosist who
procrastinated have had to fork over
several dollars of additional COSTS In
the majority of the cases no fine has
been imposed, but where the whole
amount has been added it has cost
the owners about twice what the sim.
