Ave, Phone NA. 2945 There has in recent years been an increasing tendency on the part of the Government to publish material designed to support the projects or proposed projects of the administra- tiop in power, according to & report on: Government publications and their use issued today by the Brookings Institution. Despite this tendency, however, Government publications, ranging from scientific treatises to innumera- ble press releases, have come to con= stitute a great library, touching al- most every fleld of human knowledge and endeavor and probably exceeding those of any other government or any commercial publisher in number and variety, it was reported. In the report, covering studies made by Dr. L. F. Schmeckebier, it is point- ed out that many of the Federal publications are transcripts of origi- pal records and constitute primary source material of the history of Gov- ernment adminisiration and activi- ties. “Yth AND D STS. Measure Social Changes. Other publications, such as annual | reports, contain accounts of execu- tive officers of the work under their direction. Numerous volumes present statistical pictures of conditions and | afford a basis for measuring social | and economic change. An ever-in- creasing group of publications, largely & development of the past half cen- | tury, give the results of researches in | in the social and physical sciences. Government publications, on the ‘whole, may be considered authorita- tive, it is stated in the report, though they must be judged by the same | standards as commercially printed | books. -~ Press releases, it was stated, have become of increasing importance. Even “those embodying propaganda and glittering generalities in support of an undertaking likewise have their value in reflecting the character of | the organization that issues them,” 4t is reported. Congressional Record Doctored. ‘The person who wishes to find what | was spoken in congressional debates | cannot always trust the bound vol- umes of the Congressional Record, however, it was reported. This is be- cause the text is revised and con- densed, and at times many passages found in the daily Record are missing from the bound volumes without any indication of an omission. In order to enable the public to make better use of the mass of Gov- ernment publications, the report de- scribes the guides that have been provided, indicates the use and limi- tations of the indexes, explains the system of numbering and titling, calls attention to outstanding com- pilations n many fields, and indi- cates how publications may be ob- tained. —_ DRY LEADER TO SPEAK W.
