REPAIRS TO Be MADE =
TO LIBRARY BUILDING

Repairs greatly needed because Of
leakage will probably soon be made
in the Public Library in Jefferson
street, as a result of the report given
at the meeting of the Library Board
on Thursday night. The directors
will make their annual inspection
some time next week, when damages
as a result Of storms will be investi-
gated.
The report Of the librarian. Miss
Helen M. Grannis, was received and
showed that there has been a total
increase in circulation for this year,
as compared with> the month Of
June, 1920. The increase in adult
circulation was particularly large,
probably because of the new ar
rangement of shelves by which nom
fiction is more easily available.

LEATHER Betting STOLEN
At FACTORY; GIVE WARNING

Thieves entered the establishment
of Windman and Goldsmith, manu-
ufacturers of electrical supplies at
500 East avenue last night and
made off with nine sections of leath-
er betting taken from the machin-
cry of the factory.

indebtedness can be liquidated.
One considerable means at band

however, is now nor Of an econom-
ic than . political question, which
must be dealt with in such q way
that differences in cost Of produc-
ton will not prevent the competi-
ton in foreign markets Of our
goods with those from other coun-
tries.
The only other considerable
means by which foreigners can pay
their debts to US is by our continued
export Of capital on q large scale.
It is likely that we will continue to
reinvest in the bonds Of foreign gov
ernments, municipalities and corpo-
rations and that interest on our
government loans will remain sus-
pended for several years.

that the enormous excess which is
characteristic Of our present trade
will be considerably diminished.

Such a condition cannot continue

weighted, and foreign countries are
having great difficulty In paying
