OMEWHERE in the Corcoran Gallery of Art is a certain room. Its exact whereabouts are not reveaied—to any one. However, hung on the walls of thet room are some of the worlds rarest art treasures! They were transported to the gal- lery by the method most commonly used with paintings of extreme value—brought by heavily armed, se- cret messenger, on a train, and de- livered at unannounced times to the gallery for which they are destined. This room contains treasures of that sort. A guard hovers about the door of this room day and night, but not too close to excite suspicion or give away its exact location. The door has two locks. The owner of the treasures has one key, Cor- coran’s director, C. P. Minnigerode, the other To enter the room, both men must be present at the same time. This room contains 23 of the 70 paintings belonging to Andrew W. Mellon, which are some day destined, it is hoped, for the National Art Gal- lery of Washington. * ok ok X N. R. A. HELPS G. O. P.
