(By the Asioctated Press.) Chicago, Dec. 25. An apparent increase of reading throughout the nation in 1938 was reported today by Carl H. Milam, secretary of the American Library association. Milam said his statement, prepared for the association's holiday week convention, was based on information from thirty-five cities of more than 100,000 population in the United States and Canada, all of which reported greater library use in 1938 than in the previous year.

Factors accounting for the increase were determined to be chiefly less employment in many cities and more books available where library budgets had been raised.

That's A. P. headline news of today," said the announcer, news thats gathered by a hundred thousand reporters throughout the globe. The next scene dropped back ninety years to the beginning of the A. P.

Another scene was in 1893 when a little group of serious faced Associated Press publishers met in Chicago. The announcer continued: Led by Victor L. Lawson, Frank B. Noyes and Melville Stone, the A. forces waged a war to the death on the grasping news trust.

Out of that epic struggle emerged tlie A. P. of today. America's only non-profit, co-operative news gathering organization, a champion of tlie ideal of truth in news. A TOAST TO THE MAINE.
