S. Records. Plans for a great national archives building, to be erected on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue between 14th and 15th streets, were exhibited by Dr. W. G. Leland of the Carnegie Institution at the meeting of the || District of Columbla Library Asso- | ciation at the Public Library last night. The preliminary studies have been made in the office of the supervising architect, and call for a building oc- cupying the entire block, extending back into the mall. Leland showed pictures of buildings used for the Storage of state archives of various - states. If the archives of France, Great Britain and Spain were in the same situation as the archives of the United States in Washington, he said, \ it would be impossible to write the early history of the country. More than 7,600,000 books and || pamphlets are stored in libraries in the District, according to an elab- orate study presented to the asso- | ciation by W. 1. Swanton of the reclamation service. Mr. Swanton said that in the Li- | brary of Congress the District pos- | sesses ome of the three largest li- braries in_the world, and one which, with its additions of 10,000 volumes a month, soon bids fair to be the greatest library in the world. Herbert Putnam, librarian of the Library of Congress and president of the District Library Association, ||| presided. .
