BETTER FACILITIES
IN LIBRARIES URGED

I DETROIT, Mich, June 27.-The
creation of new indexes to aid
scholars and investigators was re-
commended to the American L1br-
airy Association at its meeting here
today by Harry Miller Gutenberg,
chief reference librarian of the
New York Public Library We have
no indexes to periodical articles
in the field of industrial art" said
Mr. Gutenberg. "a union list Of
periodicals and a record of bound
files of newspaper available for
investigators are two desirable en-
terprises.
I'm the past the publishing
board had the needs of the smaller
circulating libraries in mind; op-
portant helps for, scholars and in
vest:gators have been neglected.
IF funds are available for ex-
tension of the activities of the
board library annual might prol-
itably be issued, summarizing the
statistics of the various libraries.
Another enterprise might be re-
cord of important books or manu-
scripts, reproductions of which by
photostat or similar process hav.
been collected in this country. NO
systematic survey OF the manu-
scrip to resources of-the larger re-
ference and university Libraries
has ever been undertaken. We
need a publication sum marlZlns
the essential articles on industrial
arts The library world needs in
dexes to the great collections of
reproductions of paintings and
needs indexes to pictures by sub
ject."

MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

Operators in southern Wyoming
held II meeting at Rawlins. March a..
to discuss the excessive royalties de
manded by the L.. S. Government on
federal-owned lands. After cousid-
ring tn" question fully and a free
md full discussion by practically all
present. a resolution was adopted
asking that the Oil Land Leasing Acf
be amended to provide for 10 per cent
royalty instead of - y per cen and
to give the Secretary of the interior
mere Discretionary powers in regard
to royalties. The excessive royalties
in this country have been one of the
stumbling blocks to an amica6lo I'M
derstanding with foreign countries in
making reciprocal arrangements for
L. s. oil companies to operate in 9th
err countries. Most of the foreign ma
tons have shut American operators
out because they say hat orr "x-
cessivc royalties practically make it
impossible for foreign companies to
operate in this country on stat"
and federal : owned lands. This
makes 1t rather inconsistent for the
United States to insist on the open
door for oil in other countries when
our government practically shuts
them. out of this country by demand
ing excessive royalties. At Salt
Creek government royalties on some
tracts are as high as 33 1-3 per
cent. These high royalties will soon
become a burden that will make the
operations of the leases CONNER
cially impossible unless they are re
duced. The operators themselves
are to blame for this condition for
they W ought to have paid such
place. However. because some of
outrageous royalties in the first
them we're willing to pay such large
percentages is no reason why every
body in the business should be pen
alized.-1nland Oil Index.
