sThe Commissioners have felt that il would be
desirable, MS far as possible, to prevent any per-
sons fron sending hither articles which cannot be
admitted rather than To- reject the articles after

delicate and responsible task Of deciding on the
admission or rejection Of articles destined for ex-

possible -nputations of national partially They
acccv .ingly propose to admit to exhibition such
foreign articles only as may be forwarded TO them
