SAN FRANCISCO, November O.
Women's increasingly larger part in
the government was strong feature
of the 1918 election campaign in the
west, comprising the eleven states
generally so termed. In all but two

United States senator. representative

governor. In Utah women were on
county tickets only.
Two women. Anne Martin in Nevada
and Jeanette Rankin in Montana,
were considered serious candidates
for senator. Miss Rankin, the first
woman elected to Congress. was de-
feated on the republican primary
ticket, but ran as the candidate of
the national party al the election.
Miss Martin, given chief credit for
putting Nevada in the suffrage col

LIBR AIRY ASSOCIATION PLANS
TECHNICAL READING FOR ARMY
Postwar Program for Campaign of No.
vember 11-18 Has In View Demand
for Books on Business Life.

Service is the watchword of the
American Library Association. one of
the seven organizations joined in the
of November His.
Believing that men now in the Army
and Navy will come out of the war
with u greatly intensified longing for
books of a technical nature, officials
of the American Library Association
in Washington and other cities all
over the country. as we'll as the vari-
Gus Army camps, are laying plans even
now for obtaining and placing before
the men in uniform books of a techni-
cal nature and those dealing with
business life.
Particularly is this true in the Army
camps about Washington. where there
are branch libraries of the American
Library Association. At Camp Meade,
where an A. l.. A. camp library has
been maintained for more than year,
library officials found shortly after
the branch was opened that the
American Army is an ambitious Army.
The usual percentage of fiction read
ing in city public library is between
60 and 10 per cent of the entire ma
terial read.
Before two weeks had passed at
Camp Meade library officials. headed
by DR.. George F. Bowerman of the
Public Library here. who was in
charge of the Camp Meade library.
found that the percentage of fiction
read was less than as per cent. They
had not anticipated such a demand
for books of a non-fction nature and
at first were unable to supply the de-
mands of the men. Gradually there
was worked out a scheme of inter-
changes whereby the books of all ad-
jacent Libraries became availabl for
men in the camp. and now within a
very short time. after man asks for
book which the camp library has
not on it's shelves it is placed in his
hands.

more difficult. France is not an Eng
disappearing country, and, although
many of the men are interested in
books on the French language and in
French fiction, the call is largely
for English written books.
Burton l.. Stevenson of Chillicothe,
Ohio, editor of a paper there, and a
well known novelist. was appointed
last April as the European repre-
sentative of the American Library
France on his arrival camp Libraries
already in existence, conducted by
the Y. NJ. c. A. Today, six months
after his arrival in France, Mr..
Stevenson has supervised the con-
struction and opening of a number of
branch libraries of the A. L. A., all
of which are being used by Ameri-
can soldiers and are available to the
soldiers of other allied countries.
Enormous Quantity Arriving.
At the time of the A. L. A. drive
for funds last November. Gen. Per
shing had asked for fifty tons of
in France. AS the number of men
in Europe increased the amount of
reading matter naturally increased
until now the amount of reading mat
ter arriving in France is enormous.
But it is not large enough and has
not enough new books and books of
u technical nature. For this reason
the American Library Association has
joined in the drive for funds. Even
now men of the Army in France
are studying afterthe-war business
principles and opportunities.
The greater part of this will prob
ably be due to the American Library
Association, furnishing it's books
through its branch libraries. the Y. NJ.
