註釋

Speech in conjunction with H.R. 6147 which would appropriate $1.5 million to allow the Library of Congress to purchase Vollbehr's collection, which included 200 unique titles and a superb copy of the 3-vol. Gutenberg Bible printed on vellum. Provides some history of past allocations for other special purchases. Collins' efforts were successful and the 3,114-volume collection was acquired by the Library of Congress later in 1930.
