Outlook For
Fair Better

New York, Aug. 31-The New
York Worlds Fair was on the second
half Of its 1889 season today with
growing hope of a full financial sue
cess after receiving an auditors re-
port showing an operating profit of
from $3,000,000 to $4,O0O,OOO for the
first half of its 1889 season after
meeting all interest on bonds.
At the same time, Fair officials
stressed that these figures refer sole
ly to the excess of income over out
go and do not take into considera-
ton the substantial debt left from
the construction period and placed as
high as $12,0OO,O0O in some non-Fair
sources. Fair officials add, however.
that the auditors report ignored
sources of Fair revenue, such as re-
ceipts from the Theme Center, the
percentages on restaurants, conces-
sions, and interest from rentals to
exhibitors. No estimate has yet been
made as to the income from these
sources.

Surplus Book Production:
A Big Libra7iian Problem

Chicago, Aug. 31.-With a world
production of books estimated at
200,0 annually and with more than
ZOO rolling off the presses in the
United States alone last year, the
big problem before American lib
rarians today is "how to choose from
this abundant supply the volumes
which will satisfy people who resort
to the public library for answers to a
multitude of needs"
"Give the people what they ask
for'' was the solution of some of the
librarians attending the Institute for
Librarians in Service held the first
two weeks in August at the Univer-
sity of Chicago. One expert proposed
cutting down on the inferior books
published, while others claimed that
library shelves should hold both
books of the moment and those of
more permanent value.
If folks would rather read "HOW
to Win Friends and Influence Peo-
ple,' than Aristotle's Ethics then it
is the public lbrary's job to supply
them this opportunity, according to
Carl B. Roden, librarians of the Chi
NQ6O OO1lO 1IO1 oily.
Favoring the demand" theory of
choosing books for library shelves,
Mr.. Roden said he was opposed to
the ''value" theory according to
which only books to educate readers
would be selected. He proposed a
core of books of permanent value for
every library around which should
be added marginal collection of
those volumes in current demand.
Giving people what they want in
the way of books, MIR. Roden said, is
based on the assumption that if peo-
pie can be given the habit of read
ing books of any kind, their tastes
will improve progressively. Further
more, he discouraged the present
pervasive custom of book boarding
by which librarians try to build their
collections into the million-book
class.
''It is probable" said Mr.. Roden,
''that there are not in all the world
half million books worth shelf room
in any library, least Of all in a public
library"
Editors, publishers, and university
professors tussled with the question
of how to select books for public lib
raries in face of the fact that the
output was increasing so rapidly.
The complexity of the problem was
emphasized they noted, by the latest
report of the United States Bureau
of Copyrights, revealing production
of 100000 works in the last Al
years. In the book field alone last
year there were 1868 fiction books,
1,O41 jueviles, 1913 books on sociology
and economics, 857 on history, 838
on religion, and 744 poetry and
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-08-31

drama books, it was reported.
A professor of modern history at
the University of Chicago, Louis
Gottschallz, proposed a kind of AAA
program for literature.
"Publishers should be paid for not
publishing histories which are not
scientific, well-written, and signifi-
cant, and which contain no new facts
or no new Interpretation of old facts
jokingly suggested Professor Cots
chalk.
Mandel Sherman, associate pro-
fessor of educational psychology at
the University of Chicago, urged that
librarians study the people who ask
for books and not ignorantly hand
out all types of books to all types of
persons. Some books Of the ''you can
do it if you try type which have
flooded the market since the de-
preston are not appropriate for all
readers, Professor Sherman believes.

WALLACE BERRY,
 MICKEY ROONEY
 ARE CO-5TARRED
'Stab|emafes" Playing Now at Capitol Theafre-
 Tonight and Tomorrow

Wallace Beery returns to the kind of role which won him his greatest fame in the days when he was teamed with Marie Dressler, as the broken-down veterinary in Stable mates,' melodrama in which he is teamed for the first time with Micky Rooney. The picture is fea- tured now at the Capitol Theatre tonight and tomorrow.
 Beery, because of his memorable performance with Jackie Cooper in "The Champ" is given another role reminiscent of the wornout prize fighter in that film. Rooney. rated one of the most popular actors in Hollywood today, has a characteri- zation directly opposite that of Andy Hardy in the Judge Hardy series. It is a dramatic role which tests his versatility in every way.
 With Sam Wood directing, au- thentic race track scenes were made at Santa Anita, Inglewood and the Del Mar layout. Among the famous thoroughbreds used in scenes for the picture are Seabiscuit, Lloyd. Pan. Dauber, Specify and Indian Broom. Most of the action takes place be- hind the scenes of a modern race track with all the details of handling and racing horses carefully filmed
 Authenticity and realism were in- sured by careful research on racing as it is handled today. Various horse men and jockeys cooperated in in surfing proper picturization of these scenes.
 The story is built around Terry, a broken-down veterinary, and Mickey, stable boy. When Ladybird, the horse that Mickey loves, loses continuously, Gale, its owner, is going to have her destroyed. Mickey pleads with him and gets the horse in lieu of his wages He learns from Terry that the horse is suffering from an ailment which can be cured by a dangerous operation. He fin- ally persuades Terry to operate. When the horse starts winning, Gale takes him back. In a dramatic de- nouement, Terry forces Gale to re- turn the animal to Mickey although Tn so doing he sacrifices his own freedom.
