They have been prepared not for the technical experts in the various branches of science but for the amateur student. for those whose interest is mainly that of enthusiasm not that of a career. The books selected, therefcre, are popular though not ephemeral.

Funds for printing the lists have been provided by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and they are to be distributed free, within certain limitations, by public libraries, college libraries, museums, etc. The Free Library has received one set of these lists and is asked to let the association know how many copies of each list the library can distribute without waste. In order to get an approximate idea of the number of copies to call for the librarian requests anyone who is interested in any of the following subjects to notify the library at once. Perhaps some may be interested in several subjects so that the librarian can send lists to those who have requested them. Prompt action is necessary since a small charge for the lists will be made after this first free distribution.

It is probable that the Free Library will not have all the books recommended on these lists. Among books now available are: Science Today, History and Biography of Science, Exploring For Science, Mathematics For the Layman, Wonders of the Sky-Astronomy, Geology, Minerals, Geography, Wind and the Weather, Modern Physics, Chemistry in the Life of Today, Microbes and Microscope, Science of Life- Biology, Botany For the Layman, Wiki Flowers, Ferns, Mosses and Fungi, Trees and Shrubs, Science of Animal Life-Zoology, Our Friends and Animals, Our Friends the Birds, Insect Life, Sea and the Shore, Life of Inland Waters, Fishes Reptiles, Fossils and Their Story Paleontology, Evolution and Heredity, Anthropology and Ethnology, Teaching of Science.

"Unleased of nomic and financial depression, with consequent political unrest, have taxed the ingenuity of those world leaders who have fought and are fighting with great earnestness to maintain the ideal of peace and to achieve the return of normal economic condition.

Sees Depression Breaking "While a break in the clouds is apparent on the horizon, the shadow of depression which weighs down men's hearts has not yet passed away. It remains our duty, therefore, to redouble our efforts to restore commerce, industries and shipping to normality and to inspire friendship, tolerance and peace in the minds of men." Secretary Lamont of the Commerce Department said evidence was accumulating liquidation has largely run its course and that natural up-building forces are beginning to take hold."

EUROPE FACES NEW YEAR WITH CONFIDENCE, HOPE LONDON, Dec. 31 (AP)-As 1932 dawns in Europe the wheels of the complicated machinery of international life are throbbing with new energy for settlement of world economic and political troubles. Associated Press correspondents from Finland to the Mediterranean, from Soviet Russia to the Saorstat, from Ulster to far Turkey have surveyed the continental scene. Instead of despair strong undercurrents and hope for the new year were revealed in many countries.

In Berlin, and Geneva, and Basel, new forces are digging at the roots of problems born of the world war. Italy, despite tremendous financial obligations to American bankers, is buoyant and enthusiastic over the coming celebrations marking ten years of Fascist government. Spain, the newest republic, having dethroned Alfonso and acclaimed Niceto Alcala Zamora as president, rides the crest of a wave of confidence that the new regime will cure her ills. Soviet Russia, which is more than half the continent territorially, been too busy with her "five year plan" of gigantic industrialization to bother with the rest of Europe's trouble. Bent on completing the five year plan in four years Russia knows no unemployment, no depression, no crisis in the European sense of the word.

The tangle of Franco-German relations still persists. Germany confidently expects 1932 to bring a new deal in world reparations. Across the Rhine, the fundamental point of French national policy is the insistence that Germany will continue to make good the damage caused by war invasion. Great Britain's troubles are a part of the larger world crisis. Beset by forced off the gold 1 YOUNG POLICE CHIEF OBSERVING BIRTHDAY HOWARD L.

The present active phase of the European crisis started with the proposed Austro-German customs union, It has spread to cover disarmament, World debts and reparations, currency tariff quesWar, economic problems of all kinds.

Geneva epitomizes the hope and the uncertainty of Europe. The disarmament conference and the reparations conference, scheduled for Lausanne will assume an importance and significance transcending any International gatherings yet held in the opinion cf international observers. SLOAN SHUNS FORECAST, BUT VOICES CONFIDENCE NEW YORK, Dec. 31 -Alfred P. Sloan, president of the General Motors Corporation, is one of many industrial leaders who at the end of the old year are reluctant to forecast the likely trends in the new.

Fundamental bases which provide strongest basis of confidence for the future, he said, are furnished, however, by the "desire to possess and the willingness to work to "To visualize the trends of any new year is diffcult, even under ordinary circumstances," Mr. Sloan stated. "With all the problems that exist today, with their dominating influence on our economic situation, any expression of opinion can have no fact." N. Y. TRADERS SPEED 1931 WITH SONG, CHEERS NEW YORK, Dec.

31 (AP)---A popular radio orchestra helped the New York Stock Exchange speed out 1931 during the traders' a annual celebration held on the floor toward the close of the year's last market today. A favorite tune was "Happy Days Are Here Again." Bulls and bears joined forces on this occasion to sing the refrain. Confetti was thrown by members on the floor, and also from the gallery. While the combination of singing and orchestral music furnished evidences of good cheer, several members remarked that it was the cheer that came from seeing a drab year gone, as much as the hope of a better year to come, that occasioned the rejoicing.

I further believe that changes made, and in process, presage an entirely new economic alignmentsimpler, surer, safer and flexible enough to meet the rapidly changing conditions in world business."

WILSON LINE GANDHI SUGGESTS TERMS FOR 'TRUCE' Informs Viceroy He'll Halt Renewal of 'War' If He Grants Parley Asserts Lack of Response Will Mean Firm Fight to Free India By JAMES A.

MILLS (Associated Press Staff Correspondent) Copyright. By The Associated Press BOMBAY. Jan. 1 (Friday) -Mahatma Gandhi informed Viceroy Lord Willingdon today that he would withhold renewing the civil disobedience campaign of warfare against the British government if the Viceroy would grant him an interview for the discussion of recent restictive ordinances. you think it worthwhile to see me," Mr.

Gandhi said in reply to a telegram in which the Viceroy warned him the government would ruthlessly crush agitators, "the working committee of the all-India Congress will suspend operation of a resolution renewing civil disobedience which, at my suggestion, the committee tentatively, outlined." resolution said that in the absence of any satisfactory response from the government to the contrary, the committee will consider that the government has reduced the Delhi truce to nullity. Parley or Fight Alternative In that event, the resolution summoned the nation to resume not only civil disobedience, but also -payment of taxes, boycott on foreign clothes and picketing of liquor shops, and to begin again the unlicensed manufacture and collection of salt, The resolution also contained a grim command to the followers of the Congress that "if processions and demonstrations are organized, only those should join who will stand lathi (staff) charges and bullets without moving from their places." The resolution rejected Prime Minister MacDonald's final declaration at the recent round-table conference as wholly unsatisfactory and inadequate. "Nothing short of complete independence, carrying full control over defense, external affairs and finance, with such safeguards as may be demonstrably necessary in the interest of India, can be regarded by the congress as satisfactory," the resolution said. It demanded that the government institute an impartial public inquiry into the events leading up to repressive ordinances in various provinces. "You demand cooperation from the congress without returning any on behalf of the government," Mr.

Gandhi said in his message, to, the viceroy. "I can read in no other way your peremptory refusal to discuss the ordinances. Congress is at the government in assassinations and should heartily cooperate with the governrent in exterminating such crimes. "On your own narration of the events on the northwest frontier. there is no warrant for the arrest of popular leaders like Abdul Gaffar Khan, for passing extra-legal ordiprances, insecure, making and life for and shooting property utarmed and peaceful crowds for daring to demonstrate against the arrest of their trusted leaders.

"The Congress must resist with its prescribed creed of no -violence such measures of legalized terrorism 85 have been imposed in various provinces.

CHINESE IN FLIGHT AS JAPANESE NEAR CHINCHOW WALLS (Continued From First Page) the town over, circled and headed north. Most of the railway employes have quit, and one telegrapher who stuck by his post asked anxiously if the Japanese were likely to kill the railroad crews when they took the town. General Yung Chien, whom Marshal Chang placed in command of the Chinchow force was back in town today from Pelping, but he shut himself up with his staff officers and paid no attention to the speculation which his return had caused. Will Defend Chinchow NANKING, China, Dec.

31. (AP)- Eugene Chen. China's new foreign minister, told the Associated Press today that the government is determined to defend Chinchow against any Japanese attack. Manchuria never can be independent, he said, because the 30.000,000 Chinese who produce the wealth of that territory have made it so vital a part of China that it never can be separated. INUKAI ASSURES AMERICA OF EARLY CHINESE PEACE By TSUYOSHI INUKAT Premier of Japan FOOD ORDINANCE TO BE DISCUSSED Council Decides to Give Hearing on Proposed Law On Thursday Night Councilman John P.

Grant Pays Tribute to Work of Mayor's Committee City Council will hold a public meeting on the ordinance introduced recently foodstuffs for the regulation and sale in this city immediately following the regular Council meeting next Thursday night in the Council chambers in the Public Building. Walter Dent Smith, president, will preside. The ordinance has already passed first and second reading by Council since being introduced by Councilman Otto H. Miller, who drew it up in cooperation with Board of Health. Before giving the ordinance last and final reading, Council at its regular meeting last night voted to hold a public hearing on the subject.

Tribute to the work being provided for girls and women of the city by the Mayor's Committee on Employment and Relief at the old telephone building, Sixth and Shipley streets, was paid by Councilman John P. Grant. Mr. Grant said he felt the entire city owed the Mayor's Committee, Pierre S. duPont and the Diamond State Telephone Company, a lasting debt of gratitude for the relief work being carried on at the above agency.

After adjourning, Council met informally with Councilman Arthur Johnson, chairman of the Public Building Committee, and discussed the question of allowing erection of a sign board on the north side of street, on the Mousley estate. Joseph a Walsh, who resides in the house, adjoining the site of the proposed sign boards has ing the at that point, will obfiled a protest, with Council, claimstruct his view.

INSANE MAN CAGED IN BASEMENT TEN YEARS BY PARENTS (Continued From First Page) locked quarters into which light filtered only when members of the family came with food. Action in Case Undecided County officials said tonight they had not decided whether action would be taken against the parents, but that such steps was being considered.

Information volunteered by a former maid in the Litchy home brought the man into custody of the state. The girl, being taken to a state institution for delinquents, told Mrs. Emma Moynihan, Stearns County Welfare Board secretary, because she believed the Litchy family responsible for her commitment. The parents said they fashioned his cage of boards and paid little attention to the son. Physicians said he appeared in good physical condition considering the long period in darkness.

He had not spoken in four years until today in court, his father said. Mrs. Moynihan found the man pacing in the enclosure, wearing simple clothing and barefoot. 5 NATIONS ACCEPT DEBT PARLEY BID OF BRITAIN LONDON, Dec. 31 (AP) Great Britain's proposal for an international reparations conference at Lausanne, Switzerland, on January 18, was accepted today by five nations and the parley appeared to be assured.

These were France, Germany, Belgium, Italy and Greece. The fact that the principal debtor and creditor nations will be represented augured decisive developments regarding what reparations Germany will pay next year. (Copyright, 1931, by The Associated Press) TOKYO, Dec. welcoming 1932 I have many impressions but first of all I want to step into the new world. The present government is confronting two urgent questions, namely Manchuria and the economic problem at home.

Both are temporary matters. The confusion and excitement in Manchuria might be compared with a neighborhood fire which for the time being rouses all local inhabitants. The fire will soon be out and peace and order restored. The more important question at the moment is what is to be done concerning permanent relations between China and Japan. The Manchurian affair is purely a local incident and we hope will be settled in the near future, but of course arriving at a definite agreement generally with the Chinese is a more complicated affair and of necessity will require time for solution.

The real motive of Sun Yat Sen's revolution in China was to bring China and Japan closer together. I believe therefore it is the duty, of the Japanese people to strive improvement of relations with China for the maintenance of peace in the far east. I believe the intelligent class of Chinese people quite agree with me in this matter. Japan is ready to into direct negotiations with enter, whenever a strong government is established on a sound foundation. China and Japan should shake hands for the assurance of peace, not only in far east, but in the interests of the world generally, suffering from economic strife.
