HOOVER LAUDS SAVINGS.
Sees No Overproduction From II
stallment Selling.

Extension in recent years of Install
ment selling of commodities for gen.
eral consumption has not yet rasulted
in any overproduction, in the view of
Secretary Hoover nor are there in
sight any evil effects upon business
from it.
about the most certain test of the
situation that we have is in the saw
ings bank records for 1926" Mr.. Hoov-
en- said From figures that are now
available the American people have
saved during 1926 a quantity of
money that far surpaSses that which
they have been able to lay away In
any previous year. This increase is in
the savings funds of private indi
viduaIs. In the face of that sort of
accomplishment it is hardly possible
for any one to declare seriously that
people OF average means in the
United States have seriously hampered
themselves or strained tneir credit by
purchasing articles of comfort and
luxury on the installment plan.
"Of course this is only an indirect
means of touching the subject. 1t is
difficult matter with which to deal,
because there are no figures gathered
which represent the results of install
mUnt selling in u direct manner"

Fine Arts Commission officials as in

LIBRARY EXPECTS
INCREASE IN 1927
Steady Gain in Number of Readers
Reported Since Branches
Were Opened.

The prediction that 1927 will be the
busiest year in the history of the Pub
lie Library was made today by DR..
George f. Bowerman, librarian of the
library.
The addition of branches since 1911,
he stated, not only has met the needs
Of the communities in which they
are located, but has brought addi-
tional patronage to the Central Lii
brary at Mount Vernon Square.
Since the first branch was estab-
lished in 1911, the total gain in cir
culation throughout the library sys-
tenn has been 696,6SS, DR.. Bowerman
declared. Before the first branch was
built the circulation was COL III books:
after the first branch was established
the figure jumped to 650,527; with
the addition of the second branch the
circulation became ], 136,222, and now,
with the third branch in operation,
the circulation is ,29S, 405.
Instead of taking trade away from
the Central Library, said DR. Bower
man, "a new branch merely brings
in new business for itself and throws
back even more business on the Cen
trail Library.
This was true when Takoma Park
branch, the first branch library in the
District, was built. New readers
fiocked to the branch for books ana
information, and yet the Central Lii
brary did not lose any patrons, but,
on the contrary, did greater bust
ness than ever before.
''Then came Southeastern branch
and history repeated itself; new read
ers joined the Southeastern branch of
the library, older ones transferred
their cards to the new branch, nearer
to their homes, and yet business con-
tinued to increase at the Central Ii
brary, and at Takoma Park branch.
Then some years later came Mount
Pleasant, the largest Of the branch IL
braries. Mount Pleasant opened to
record number of new and old Dor
rowers, and yet the Central Library
and the Takoma Park branch and
Southeastern branch kept right on
being buster than ever"

New Appeal Discounted.
OIL MEN STAND PAT.
Expected to Make No Request for
Confirmation of Rights.

NEW YORK, December 81 (R).--
With only II hours intervening before
the new Mexican oil law goes into
effect, companies affiliated with the
Association of Producers of Petroleum
in Mexico today were standing pat.
At noon it was declared at the Offices
Of the association that no meeting
was planned for this afternoon for
further consideration of the situation.
While no official comment was avail
able, it is generally assumed that
American oil interests concerned will
permit the time limit to pass without
application for confirmation of their
rights as required by the new law
Theoretically this will mean that oil
lands involved will revert to the
government.
However, it is believed here that
some time will elapse before the
Gales government acts to enforce the
law and that some satisfactory agree
ment may be reached before definite
confiscatory action is taken. 1t is
doubted that companies failing to
comply with the law will be elected
from their properties, as such pro-
cedure would eliminate a large reve-
nue. now received by the government
and throw many Mexican workmen
out of employment.

DRIVER GETS 80 DAYS.
Jumped Out Of Moving Car and
Ran. Police Saw.

Floyd Gray, who gave his address
as 1345 Wiley court, convicted today
by Judge John P. Mcmahon in Traffic
Court on a charge of reckless driv-
ing, was given the maximum penalty
of 80 days in Jail.
Gray, according to Policemen r. F.
Langdon and l.. NJ. Wilson of the
ninth precinct, jumped out of his ma
chine November on Fourteenth
street extended while the car was still
in motion, when ordered to stop be-
cause of speeding. The machine con-
tinued across the street, mounted the
sidewalk and crashed into a tree.
Several pedestrians narrowly escaped
being hit, the police said.
The defendant stated in court that
he jumped out of the car after it had
stopped "and ran because he had
whisky in the machine. A whisky
case is pending, the police said.
In giving the maximum penalty
Judge Mcmahon stated that it was a
case where the penalty should be
more severe, inasmuch as the defend
ant in his endeavor to escape had
given no thought to the lives of
others.
