its annual Auction.
Total receipts: from all other
sources, including School District
and Dallas Borough Council appro-
priations, plus income from inves-
ments and contributions from Dallas
Woman's Club, Book Club and others
amount to slightly less than $6,000
per year.
While the Library Association has
built up a sound endowment fund of
slightly more than $66,000 during
| its sixteen years existance, the in-
come from these investments
| amounts to less than $2,000 annually
which can be used for current oper-
ating expenses.
The importance of the continued
success of the Auction cannot be
too highly stressed. One year of
failure due to bad weather, com-
munity indifference or other causes
would present a serious problem for
the Association. It is for this reason,
and to assure the continued expan-
sion and enlargement of its service
that the Library Association must
eventually look to other sources of
income, possibly taxation.
THE DALLAS POST, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1961
1960 Financial Report Shows That
Ruction Income Is Vital To Library
The finaneizl report presented by Homer B. Moyer, treas-
of Back Mountain Memorial
Library Association, on Thursday night shows that the Library
would fail to meet its current operation expenses by more
| than $5,100 per year if it were not for the income derived from
Few libraries in the country in,
communities of similar size, are in
as strong a financial position for
growth as Back Mountain Memorial
Library but this has come about
because of appreciation in :nvest-
ments and a wise use of funds.
Only two special funds other than
those established from Auction re-
ceipts have ever been given to the
Library from private sources. They
are the Dr. Sherman Schonley Mem-
orial Fund, established from the
memcrial gifts of his friends and
patients, and the Bertha Hutson
Fund, established under the will of
the late Bertha Hutson of Frankiin
Street, Dallas.
This points up the necessity for
others who are interested in the
advancement and continued success
of the Library to remember the
Association in their wills and
through insurance polices. Presently
the income from the Schooley and
Hutson Funds amounting to $155.02
is earmarked for the purchase of
books.

Has Treasured Letter
From Richard Nixon
Carol Ann Williams, 19, the Dallas
girl who kept up with her class at
Westmoreland, though never attend-
ing sessions, and graduated with the
others two years ago, treasures a
letter which she recently received
from former Vice President Richard
Nixon. -§
The letter graciously acknowledges
good wishes of the writer to a de-
feated candidate for the presidency.
Carol, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
G. Stewart Williams, Parrish Street,
appeared on the front page of the
Dallas Post in February of 1959, a
glowing example of what can be
done by parental care and therapy
given by the Crippled Children’s
Foundation. Carol suffered a crip-
pling attack of encephalitis when she
New Statistics Handbook
Lists Vital State Data
The 1960 edition of the Pennsyl-
vania Statistical Abstract, a hand-
book of up-to-the-minute facts on
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
was released today by the State
Department of Internal Affairs.
Described by Secretary of Inter-
nal Affairs, Genevieve Blatt, as
“a publication without equal among
State government compendiums of
this kind in the United States,” the
Abstract was compiled by the De-
partment’s Bureau of Statistics.
The book’s 264 pages of statistical
tables, graphs, charts and maps is
an expansion of the previous edition
with several new categories and a
wider range of subject activities.
The variety and scope of the in-
formation in the Abstract make it
an invaluable time saver for busy
people in immediate need of such
data. It discloses, for example, that
the number of physicians in Pennsyl-
vania increased from a total of 16,-
500 in 1950 to 19,536 in 1959; that
out of more than 10,000 lawyers in
the state only 165 are women; that
the rural farm population has
shrunk from 705,207 in 1950 to an
estimated 557,000 in 1960. Pennsyl-
vania’s court system is described,
how many members of the minor
judiciary there are in all 67 counties
and their political affiliation, and
never-before-published data on local
elections and registration of voters.
Sources of the state's revenue are
shown,
This year’s handbook is larger
than the 1959 edition by six sections
and 95 statistical tables. There are
269 statistical tables in the current
edition, 21 maps and 14 graphs and
charts. Ready reference to all sub-
jects is facilitated by a table of
contents, an alphabetical index, ex- |
tensive informational notes, and
reference to other sources of data.
Miss Blatt said the new Abstract,
because of its broad coverage of the
factors involved, “is a guide to in-
creased knowledge of the dynamic
forces that are shaping Pennsyl-
vania’s present day society’ and
The book includes data
on population, education, govern-
mental finances, manufacturing,
agriculture, and other aspects of the
life in Pennsylvania.
