RETURN OF DAVIS LIBRARY GIVES
MICHIGAN BEST ROAD COLLECTION
~~-~~~-
Value of Collection Estimated
at $250,000.
The Davis library of highway en-
gineering and highway transport is
once more a part of the Transpor-
tation Library of the Engineering
school and its return after a five
year absence once more gives Mich-
igan the most complete collection
of books and pamphelts on high-
way engineering in the world.
The Davis library is named for
its founder, Charles Henry Davis,
who financed its beginning at the
Columbia University in 1910. At
Columbia the library was develop-
ed by Prof. Arthur H. Blanchard.
When Professor Blanchard trans-
ferred to Michigan in 1919 the li-
brary, which is officially owned by
the National Highway Association,
was transferred to Michigan also.
In 1926 Professor Blanchard re-
signed from his position here and
the library was moved to Chicago
where it was stored in preparation
for use by the Highway Associa-
tion. Since it was never used by
that body, Prof. Roger L. Morrison,
of the Transportation department,
recognizing its worth, arranged by
contacts with Mr. Davis, president
of the Association, to have the li-
brary loaned to Michigan and it
arrived in Ann Arbor yesterday.
The library consists of more than
5000 bound volumes and 5000 pam-
phlets on highway engineering. In-
cluded in the various items also
listed as part of it are 200 pictures,
a desk set, and a full-size traffic

yearly pledges from active and

Prominent alumnae members of
Alpha Delta Pi include Jessica

Tapp, president of the National
Panhellenic association for eight
years, Dorothy Richardson Duell,
notable journalist, Mildred Ophner
Peterson, noted for her work in the
field of library science, and Nadine

self in grand opera.

light in good condition.
The value of the Transoprtation
library is such that it can not be
accurately determined, but Prof.
John S. Worley, curator, expressed
his opinion that it might reach a
total of a quarter of a million do-
lars.
The Davis library alone has been
termed the "most complete collec-
tion of literature on highway en-
gineering in the world" and its ad-
dition to the splendid university
collection makes the Michigan li-
brary outstanidng. The Library is
equipped with eleven comprehens-
ive indexes covering its books, re-
ports, specifications, p amphlets,cat-
alogs, of materials and machinery,
and literature on highway trans-
port. The collection could not pos-
sibly be duplicated in modern times,
since many of the books date back
to the 18th century.
A corps of a half dozen men was
engaged yesterday in uncrating the
library where it will be maintained
as a separate entity, and it should
be ready for public inspection in the
latter part of this week.
'COLLINS DISCSSES
IDEAL IN -SOCIETY
Wisconsin Pastor Would Abolish
Racial, Sex Discrimination
in Filling Jobs.
The problem of building a new
society was the subject of a lecture
last night by George L. Collins,
pastor at the University of Wiscon-
sin, who concluded a series of ad-
dresses given under the auspices
of the League for Industrial Demo-
cracy, in Natural Science auditor-
ium.
Maintaining the present form of
government, Collins would have in
his new society jobs with no race
or sex discrimination, interesting
jobs with leisure hours, worker's
control, adequate pay, and security
from interruption by war and un-
employment.
He suggested as a means of meet-
ing the problem of insecurity

taxes, furtherance of co-operative
movements, n a t io n a 1 economic
planning, solving the race problem.

international debts and disarma-
ment measures.
