UNCLE SAM'S “BIG BOOK STORE" | TO BE CURBED BY GEN. DAWES From present indications Budget Director Dawes and Public Printer Carter have decided to reduce for economy's sake duplicated or non- essential publications in “Uncle Sam's Big Book Store,” which in recent years has assumed the status of be- ing the largest “book store” in the world, as its output is supplied by the largest printing office on the face of ‘the earth. It have seems that the public printers been powerless in the past to reduce the work of this division of the “big print shop” without con- gressional action, but under the pro- visions of the budget law this can be done. This big store of public documents is not a general book store, sells as it the output of one publisher— the United States government. Many Coples Returned. Public Printer Ford said in 1918, speaking of the waswe of paper n‘nfll printing, and an added expense to the government _printing office: “As an evidence of the faulty distribution of government -publications, 229,624 “#copies were returned from libraries during the vear and about nine out of e sold molete or in excess of demand. ever, very ten were condemned and as waste paper, being either ob- How- without action « by Congress there is no relief in sight, as this dis- tribution is governed by la or book stora" building on G me years this huge government occupied a seveh-story street, known as the Tuion building, in the care of a super- intendent of public documents. cent years “space In re- in the government printing office has been provided for this book ports cialy store.

Mr. Tucker arrived here from | Purcellyille, Loudoun county, where | he addressed a large meeting last | night.

Many in the audience rose and | cheered as the candidate came upon jthe stage to be introduced by R. | Gray Williams, president of the club. | Among those occupying seats near i the .stage were numerous business | and professional men and women | prominent in the social life of Win- i chester. The candidate left shortly | after the meeting for Herndon, Va. ! “The visit of Mr. Tucker to Winches- | ter was not arranged until he had mapped out his itinerary for north- ern Virginia.
