Clinic For Saving
Ancient Volumes
Set Up By Italy
Saw Entire Libraries Are
Periled by Vast Inva-
sion of Termites
BY FRANCISCO REA
United Press Staff Correspondent

ROME, June 25. (UP)-A
clinic for sick books, hailed by the
Italian press as the first of it's kind
in Europe, has been established
here.
Various ailments, some of which
are deadly, such as mold, bacteria,
oxidation, ruin the books. Lately,
as far as Italy is concerned, new
and no less destructive enemy has
been added. 1t is the termite, a
voracious white ant which is at
tracted by the ligneous part of
the paper.
During the past year, millions
of termites, leaving from Sicily,
have been invading continental
Italy, doing havoc in the libraries
of south Italy and even boring at
the vital parts of valuable old
choir stalls in certain churches of
central Italy. The outstanding and
most recent case of these devour-
:, ing attacks is the beautiful choir
OF st. Peters church at Perugia,
whose stalls have been almost pull
verified internally.
IN TOBACCO LEAVES
It seems that the termites APP
peared at Palermo and Catania
mingled with tobacco leaves from
the Near East, and from those
two cities started their invasion
northward.
Alarmed at these various threats
to ancient documents and struc-
lures, the Italian government de-
cided to face the problem in a big
way and with adequate financial
means. From this decision the idea
originated of creating a national
clinic for the treatment of printed
and engraved matter menaced by
destruction.
The clinic, entrusted to the care
of Prof. Alfonso Gallo and main
tanned through special item IN
the budget of the ministry of ma
tional education, has been made
an annex to the Botanical lnstl-
tute.
1t is composed of two sections
the pathological and the thera-
i peutic, each supplied with mod
ernly equipped laboratories. In
the former section the experts, or
clinicians, examine the causes and
effects Of the various ailments.
} Morphology has a great part IN
this work. In the latter section
the remedies are applied after pre-
vious application of microscopy,
spectroscopy, fluorescence, ultra
violet rays, photography, cheml-
| Gals. etc.

TRADE FLEET
Admiral Land Will Direct
z Billion Expenditure
in 8-Year Period
BY JULIUS c. EDELSTElN
United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June rs. CUP.
The man in charge of efforts TO
rebuild the American merchant
marine, entailing the expenditure
of more than $4,000, 100000 over
the next eight years, is retired
naval admiral who believes pas
sionately in the use of the mer-
chant marine to enhance the pres
tige and potentialities OF the
navy.
Admiral Emory S. Land, who is
pledged to carry out the mari
time policies laid down by his
predecessor as maritime commits
sion chairman, Joseph P. Ken
nedy, will lead a party of gov
elnment officials down the east
coast of South America this fall
on a tour dedicated to maritime
goodwill. =,
He also in intensely interested
in building up maritime services
in the trans-Pacific routes, to
Hawaii, the Philippines, China,
Japan and the East Indies. Con-
struction of adequate merchant
passenger cargo liners to South
America and to the Orient, in
Admiral Lands opinion, will en-
nance the nations diplomatic and
commercial prestige, while assur-
ing a speedy auxiliary to the ma
tional defenSes on the high seas.
KNOWN AS SHIP BUILDER
Admiral Land is rimarily a
builder Of ships, an organizer and
an expert in the technique Of
keeping the merchant marine in
physicall yperfect condition, and
in maintaining its morale at a
high standard.
The maritime commission chair
man is a firm believer in disci-
pine in the merchant marine, but
, he has roundly condemned Amer
lean ship operators for washing
their linen in public" and for eX-
aggerating the lax morale of
/ American seamen.
As chief of the bureau of con-
sctruction and repair Of the navy,
Admiral Land for some years was
| in charge of all the work on the
to light by the excavators of Her
cuianeum, waxed tablets, decayed
parchments and incunabula, books
bored by insects or damaged by
must or by World War fires and
bullets.
Perhaps the most illustrious sick
publication on this list is the gor-
geously illuminated Bible of Bor-
so d'Este, which Sen. Giovanni
Treccani. the well known textile
industrialist and liberal contribu-
tor to national learning, purchas-
ed in 1928 at a public auction in
Paris, where it was hotly contest
ed by international art lovers.
Treccani paid 100000 lire for
it, and then donated it to the
nation.
The Bible, restored to its orig
inal place, the Este Library of
Modena, has been taken to the
Rome clinic, where its malady has
been diagnosed as mold, however,
not in serious form, for the pres
ent at least.

He considers his responsible
ties as chairman Of the maritime
commission as even greater than
those he had in the navy. The
work of rebuilding the merchant
marine, he thinks, is one Of the
gravest problems facing the gov
eminent.
FOLLOWS KENNEDY
PROGRAM
For the broad policies Of gov
eminent substituting, construction
and operatio nof privately-owned
ship lines, Admiral Land follows
the outlines set down by Kennedy.
Although naval admirals are gen
orally considered to be opposed
to government operation Of the
merchant marine, Admiral Land
has proved to be liberal in his
outlook on government participa-
ton in maritime activities.
He has pledged the maritime
COllllllSSlOn " give ttifoIS i''SS'
ests the fright of-way" in the OPP
Grafton and construction of mer-
chant lines. Where satisfactory
private operation is not available,
however, Admiral Land has de-
clared himself in favor of direct
government assistance and parti-
cipation in merchant marine ac-
tivities.
Of all the accomplishments
which have been credited to the
maritime commission chairman
through his years Of active life,
he is secretly proudest Of a feat
I of his collegiate career.
