Governmental red tape has been deplored for a long time. Cutting through H takes patience and perseverance. But proper records have to be main tained for the government. library of congress The story is told here in Wash ington about a former Librarian of the Library of Congress. As you know, the Library of Congress was < started by a $5,000 appropriation from Congress in 1800 when the Capitol was established in Wash ington. It took a long time to make purchases and gather all the storehouse of information in the library. In 1814, when the British burned the Capitol, many priceless volumes were saved before the in vasion, but others had to be left for destruction as the soldiers fed the flames with the volumes. Thom as Jefferson heard of the great loss and he offered his entire private library to Congress upon such terms as it might choose. Subse quently, Congress purchased 6,500 volumes from Jefferson for $23, 950. This formed a valuable nu cleus from which the library con tinued to grow until it is world re nowned today. MISPLACED In 1896, shortly before the li brary had moved from the Capitol to its own building across the the street, an embarrassing situ ation came to light. The Librarian, Aineworth Spofford, had held the Job since 1884. Mr. Spofford was completely devoted to his work but he was a poor bookkeeper. He pos sessed a total indifference to the monetary side of his duties. This was his downfall for a time. The Treasury Department dis covered that Mr. Spofford was short in his accounts by $30,000, which he paid in full out of his own pocket. There seemed to be no ex planation. No embezzlement was involved. But what went with the money? When Mr. Spofford's suc cessor, John Russell young moved into his office, so the story goes, long - forgotten money orders, checks and coins were found stick ing in books, coiners or whatever place seemed to be available to the i former Librarian. The entire $30,- i 000 was found! Mr. Spo.Tord was \ reimbursed in full- All I can add to this story is this: Mr. SpofTord would certainly be in one terrible mess if he had to serve in his job today! APPLE TIME Senator Harry Byrd is famous as a legislator and former Governor of Virginia. He is also famous for apples, grown on his great farm at Berryville, Va. Each year, Sen ator Byrd sends his colleagues a supply of apples. It's about thai time of the year, and my office staff has been, anxiously awaiting the arrival of that half-bushel of 'PPles!
