which is considered a good sign.
There were other reports from
the steel industry. The price of
steel scrap rose again in Chicago

ly we'll discounted already The
Edison Electric Institute report
ed that electric power production

ed 2,298,005,000 kiloWatt hours,
the largest week in history. This
was a gain of 1872 per cent over

active on the market today and at

tracted more market attention

BILL WOULD RENAME
LIBRARY FOR JEFFERSON

Dedication of the Library of Con-
eress as the jefferson Memorial
Library is proposed in a bill intro
duced yesterday by Representative
David ]. Lewis of Maryland lin mem
ory of the life and achievements of
Thomas Jefferson, scholar. statesman,
philosopher and friend of man"
The bill carries an authorization
for a $4,000 appropriation for ex-
penditures under the direction of the
Joint Committee on the library for
appropriate ceremonies of dedication,
commemorative markers. inscriptions,
publications and other expenses Incl
dental to the proposed dedication
Explaining his bill, Mr.. Lewis said
L really believe this method would
be his own choice. He was a scholar
and, in fact, his own library consti-
tuted the first collection of the present
Library. Moreover, no other sufficient
ly unique memorial seems possible
in Washington We have used up the
great shaft idea in the monument to
Washing on; so. too, we have eX-
hausted the idea of the temple in the
monument to Abraham Lincoln ANY,
how, the great spirit of Thomas
Jefferson would hardly be adequately
expressed in massive erections of stone
or marble. What satisfaction would
the neutrality-suspicious. soul of jefferson
find if the greatest of the Pyramids
were dedicated to him? Meanwhile,
will not the Library be living, grow
ing organ for the advancement of
knowledge, to live as long as our insti-
tutions may last?"

An exhibition of rural arts repre-
sentlng practically every State in the
Union now may be seen in the patio
of the administration building of the
Agriculture Department. The occa-
sion is the celebration of the 18TH
anniversary of the founding Of
the department. The collection. COM
prising approximately 1000 items. was
assembled and installed by Allen Eaton
of the Russell Sage Foundation. who
for some years has specialized in this
subject
The patio of the Agriculture De-
partment Building lends itself admir-
ably to such purpose, with its central
fountain, broad walls, upper arcade
and glass roof. and every advantage
has been taken of the opportunity
offered for effective display. In
stantly upon entrance the visitor is
attracted. then enthralled. for the art
of display was never better employed.
On the wall opposite the entrance
hangs very large hooked rug of
floral design made in New England
over 100 years ago. This and a very
old patched and quilted bedspread
are the only pieces shown which are
not contemporary. They were intro
duced as witness to tradition. Other
wall decorations are woven fabrics,
