Libraries Must Have
Public Support
AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIA-
TION PROMOTING BOOKS FOR
EVERYBODY MOVEMENT

A critical period confronts
library service in the United States
in the opinion of library leaders, the
Redwood Falls Public Library declares.
More than half of the nation is depriv-
ed of access to free public Libraries,
and existing libraries in many cases
are crippled for lack of financial sup
port. difficulties are increased by
widespread designations Of liberty
workers because of low salaries Many
large city Libraries are now forced to
give service with greatly depleted
staffs and in numerous small towns Ii
braries have been obliged to close their
doors.
Public library service will stand still
or go backward unless greater pub
brarians and friends of libraries fight
for the profession, American Library
Association officials declare. At a
time when Libraries are barely able
to meet the routine demands made
upon them, the nation needs more Ii
brary service than ever before. Ig-
norance and lack of understanding I'M
derby the present industrial and social
unrest Libraries are among the
most potent forces for removing this
dangerous condition.
The local library has received en-
couraging reports of progress from
the American Library Association re-
garding the Books for Everybody"
movement, which seeks to-raise a ST.
100000 fund for promoting library ex-
tension and development. Prominent
men and women of the nation now rea-
lie the need for standing behind Ii
braries.

BERLIN REVOLUTlONiSTS
RIOT; TWENTY ARE SLAIN
Mob of About 10000 Persons Attacks
the Reichstag Building-Shot
Down by Machine Guns.

Berlin, Jan. 14.-Minister of Defense
NoSke showed his teeth to the radicals
again when machine guns were turned
on a mob of communists and independ-
ent socialists who attempted to storm
the rechStag.
4 furious battle on the very steps or
the reichStag was the climax to DEM
onstratiOn of a mob of radicals estl-
mated at 10000 who had left factories
and shops at noon and poured through
Inter den Linden and the Tiergarten
to the parliament building in order to
protest against the sO-called "Betrieb-
sraete-gesetz," bill that would place
the workmen's councils in the various
industries on a legal basis
Twenty of the mob are dead ana
more than one hundred wounded.
The occasion of the demonstration
was the second reading in the upper
house Of the act creating factory coun-
ellis in the reichstag. Independent So
cialistS declare that the act does not
meet the demands of the worlSmen,
and Die Freiheit, a radical socialist
organ, published an appeal in the
name of Is uniOns-some unions say
without authOrity-tO all workmen to
stop work at noon and assemble in
front of the reichstag at three o'clock.

IveStlsNNOn or the conduct or the navy
'departlpent throughout the war.
. If Mr.. Daniels and Admiral Benson
appear before the full senate commit
tee SUCH action will obviate the neces-
sity ofa statement from the navy de-
partment.
Some of the members of the advi-
sorry board discussed what they termed
reasons for Admiral Sims attack,
first on Secretary of the Navy Daniels
In the awards controversy and then
on the navy generally.
Politics Charged.
In short, the reasons given are
these:
1. 1t Is supposed to be political.
z. Giving due credit to Admiral
Sims for his ability as a naval officer,
they nevertheless say the personal
equation now dominates the matter.
.. In substantiation of the personal
feature they point out that Admiral
BENSON, when he went to Paris to con-
clude the terms of the armistice, found
Admiral Sims there and ordered him
'Dack to his job" at London.
4. Admiral Sims was reported to
nave desired to become a member of
the British admiralty, but dropped the
matter after he learned Of the OPPOSE
tion of Admiral Benson to such a
step.
D. mat 1T was well-known bv the
members of the advisory council that
Admiral Sims possessed strong feel
ings for friendship for the British
as demonstrated by his now famous
"biood is thicker than water" speech
IN London--and that his tendency
would be for a closer cooperation
than was desired by the advisory
council.
One official recalled that Admiral
Sims was born in Canada. and while
this was not set forth as anything to
his discredit, it was argued that II
might have affected his naval policy.

1t is understood that Attorney GenSS
eral Palmer, on the strength of the\
scope of the alleged discoveries OF
graft, has ordered the United States
shipping board to hold up claims an
proximating $37, 100000 to await tive
outcome of the investigation.
Silent in Washington.
Washington. Jan. 16-DeRartment
of justice officials admitted an in
vestigation of financial transactions in
Pacific coast shipbuilding had been
ordered, but declined to indicate the
nature of the evidence obtained. Of
ficials of the shipping board likewise
were silent on the reported disclos-
ures of fraud.
The investigation, 1t was recalled,
was instigated by former Chairman
Hurley of the shipping board. 1t was
the intention of the board, about
eight months ago, to go into the
books of the shipbuilding companies
itself, but plans later were changed
and the entire matter turned over to
Attorney General Palmer.
There was no intimation at that
time. however that the alleged fraud
would attain any such preparations as
government agent snow believe they
have uncovered.
Names Of Suspects Yelled.
Information which came out piece
meal here tended I show that at least
seven large shipbuilding corporations
were involved in the alleged fraud.
Their identity was not disclosed and
probably will not be until federal in
dictments have been obtained and exc
cuted.
The government was said to be pre-
pairing its case with view to avoiding
certain legal technicalities which have
led to long-drawn-out fights in at
tempts to recover illegally paid funds
on certain other wartime contracts.
The opinion among officials here
seemed to be that the alleged fraudu-
lent transactions were limited to yards
ON the Pacific coast. 1t was said that
no reasons for Investigating Atlantic
and gulf coast yards had been pre-
scented thus far.
Although several Illegal transac-
ions were discovered in some of he
Eastern yards shortly after the sign
ing of the armistice they were cleared
I'M without resort to courts.
