PRICELESS RELICS ON' EXHIBITION National Museum at Washington Has Many Treasures Washington, April 17.—Priceless art treasures are jostiing invaluable examples of man's progress in other | fields into places of obscurity in the National Museum, and in quence the scientists of the country have come to the support of the American IYederation of Arts in its campalign for a national art gallery. Bills providing for the construction of a national gallery are being pre- pared for introduction in the senate and house should funds for the struc- conse- | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1921. special design in which the treasures which are being preserved for pos- Iterity could be suitably displayed for study by scientists, artists and his- orians.” CHANCE OPERATED UPON Pilot of the Chicago Club is Operated Upon For a Sinous Growth—Hopes to Be Well From Now On, Chicago, April 17.—Frank Chanc ! manager of the Chlcago Americans, underwent a sinous operation yester- |day and said he felt immediate re- lief from the asthmatic condition | troubling him since an attack of in- | fluenza several months ago. Chance expressed the belief that “they have at last discovered what is the matter with me.” He will be able to leave the ho: pital in a short time, surgeons sal ture not be raised by gift or bequest, and Charles A. Platt of New York, has been commissioned to design the building by a group of art patrons who have subscribed $10,000 for this purpose, Meanwhile, however, the situation is described as acute, Art was one of the subjects to be cultivated under the bequest of James Smithson, with which the Smith- sonian Institution was founded in 1846, but science and history claimed principal attention for many years. The archeological exhibits that have been gathered are recognized by scientists and historians as being among the finest and most important in the world, Vapansion Necessitated. The steady growth of the scientific and historical collections has resuited in the expansion of the Smithsonian oup of buildings into four, of which | New National Museum is one. When they were planned, art occu- pied only an incidental place among the exhibits, and no special provision was made for its preservation, In recent years, however, the go\v- ernment ,which has a hand in financ- ing the institution, has been given art collections of great value, including works by Tittan, Luini, Rubens, Rem- brandt, Maes, Gainshorough, Rey- nolds, Turner, Romney, Racburn, Ho- garth, Constable, and other masters, ‘Ihis store of created beauty, already valued at something more than ,000,000, will be increased by numerous other gifts and bequests, it | is said, as soon as the priva are assured of adequate ar for the care and display treasures. Freer Pravided Special Gallery Charles 1. Freer of Detroit, who yecently gave the government the owners ngements of such most extensive single art collection it | has received, provided a special gal- lery for it at a cost ‘of $1,250,000, but it is pointed out that few con- noisseurs are ahle to make gifts, and many of them are willing to have their most possessions put on display in shift quarters, Charles D, Walcott, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, who has charge of the national art collection as well as the scientific eXhibits, has emphasized the need for a separate, especially designed building in whieh 1o house the former, Not only is the U'nited States the only great nation in the world that has no national art gallery, but the existing buildings have become so crowded that expan- slon of the historical and scientific as well as the art exhibita is being re- tarded, The government has granted the institution a site on the Mall of the capital for a gallery, but funds have not yeet been made available for its construction despite the fact that scienee and art—as Dr, Wolcott puts it—"ghould Loth have buildings of END RHEUMATIC ~ PAIN WITH NEW POWDER FROM ITALY Shake It lnr\’our Shoes, Medicine To Take lessandra Ve the well-known Italian siclst for wh the electrl med, has discovered & powder t sut the agoni thousands of riready bro that it seems m This ama a fine pawd. not prized make- No tism country it h lief from pain so quickly aculous, otery 18 in the form of when shaken into the whoos, secms to 4 fmniediately o the hiood st kh the myriad rbs of the feut due, no doubt, | the fact that in the fect tyere are timies as many pores to the in any other part of the body. tended to ast at once on the Urle | which causes rheumatic pain.
