An Appeal for Books

UNIVERSITY OF TOKIO'S LIBRARY

Paris, Dec. 10.

On the motion of the Japanese representative, Professor Nitobe, the International Commission for Intellectual Ca-operation is appealing to universities, liter-wry and scientific bodies and pri-vote persons throughout the world to give books to restore the foreign collections in the library of the Imperial University in Tokio, which was destroyed by fire after the earthquake. The Commission suggests that books should be sent to the Japanese Embassies in the respective countries.—Reuter.
