The original manuscripts Of a
large number Of the operettas
written by Victor Herbert have
been placed in the keeping Of the
library by Mrs. Ella Herbert Bart
lett, only daughter of the famous
American composer.
DR.. Putnam declares that the
music collection is surpassed by
only one or two European IL
brarieS; that its collection of docu-
ments of the Federal Government
is equaled only by that of the Su-
perintendent of Documents.
He adds that in the library
there are probably more books in

of Russia and more books in Chi

Assurance that the congestion
which has handicapped proper
presentation of the treasures
filed in the Library Of Congress
soon will be relieved, was given to-
day by DR.. Herbert Putnam in his
annual report on the condition OF
the National Library.
DR.. Putnam calls attention to
the fact that an authorization
for a $2,866,000 increase to the
money provided for the annex to
the library has been approved
and that a $6,300,000 contract
for the annex has been let and
the construction work started.
The collection If books, maps,
music and prints now total TO-
100000 items, not including an
uncounted. mass Of manuscripts.
The number of books has risen
to more than 5000, 900. The annex
will house twice that number.

Commissioner Urges
Careful Study Of
Local Problem

Commissioner George e. Allen
stepped out Of the role of relief
administrator for the District to-
day when the District Commits
Sioners adopted his recommends
ton that the entire relief program
of the District be placed under
the Board of Public Welfare.
In taking this action, Commits
sioner Allen told his fellow city
heads:
"The Federal Government il
Withdrawing from relief, leav-
ing the financial burdens and
administrative problems with
the local communities. As the
Federal Government withdrawS
its financial support, these local
communities must assume full
responsibility for relief prob
lens. This should be under the
administration of a regular de.
partment in the local govern
ment, rather than in temporary
emergency agencies. A permar
nent organization is necessary
to plan and administer a relief
program economically without
Federal financial aid.
URGES CAREFUL CHECK
Improved economic cOndi.
tons make it imperative that
the local communities carefully
consider the best available plans
for the humane reduction Of re-
lief roles. Such reduction should
not be carried out indiScrimin-
ately by curtaiIment of funds,
but rather, by careful check on
the actual needs of individual
cases."
Since the start of relief in the
District, the program has been
carried out by a temporary agency.
Named and renamed, the agency
is now known as the Public AS
SiStance Division Of the Board Of
Public Welfare.
Since the Federal Government
began withdrawing it's support in
the local relief field, the public
assistance division has been oper'
ating since November Is as the

manning of the 100000 relief
fund allited to the District for the
current fiscal year.
The Board of Public Welfare has
made repeated efforts to have the
public assistant division made a
permanent organization. The step
today by Commissioner Allen lends
support to this plan.
Funds insufficient
In taking this action Commits.
Sioner Allen did not go into the
needs to carry o nthe local relief
program. He is convinced that
the funds now on hand are in
sufficient to carry the program
through the remainder of this
fiscal year, which ends June 80,
and that the 81, $50 900 allotted for
relief by the budget bureau in the
1887 fiscal year budget is just
about half enough. He favors q
deficiency appropriation of $780,,
900 or more for the remainder Of
this year and a 1887 appropriation
