Its furtker equipment and maintenance will be provided for by subsequent grants. It is estimated that the equip- ment of the observatory will cost not less than $300,000. Dr. George E. Hale, director of the Yerkes observatory of the University of Chicago, has been appointed director | of the solar observatory. In the work he will be assisted bv G. W.
