League of Artists Acts
TO Project Profession
H;gh Charges for Materials and
1'hc'is of Product Among
Evils Complained of

Efforts to learn the nature of con-
dtions confronting the artist profess
sion with a view to providing greater
protection for it's members. were be-
gun yesterday when the League Of New
York Artists sent out questionnarc
to painters, sculptors and other graphic
artists.
The printed paper incorporates four
teen queries. They seek to know
whether the artist has ever had pic
lures or other works of art stolen by
fictitious dealers; whether they are
experiencing difficulty in collecting in
surancc on damage cases, and whether
eXorbitant sums Of money arc being
charged for artists materials. The
artist is asked also whether he would
be willing to support movement to
throw trade into the hands Of manu-
facturers who treated the artist mos
favorably. And would he be willing
to join with the lea . in placing an
order to buy materials abroad in guam
tty, and therefore mucN cheaper?
ut is a we'll known fact that for a
long time artists have been paying cx
orbitant prices for Materials said
Julian Bowes, managing secretary Of
the league. at is also a matter for
serious investigation" he continued,
whether materials sold to artists are
really the materials advertised. Our
technical bureau is working on the
chemistry Of paints and will have
some interesting facts to present in
the near future"
He said also that there had been nu-
merous complaints from artists of
thefts of pictures and small sculpture
and that it was the purpose of the
questionable to learn the extent and
source of these conditions affecting
artists that proper measures might be
taken to correct them.

part in connection with the Broadway

their former positions, bat will be

salary of about $4,000. Elijah NJ. Nor
ris, formerly received 50 4400 as super
intendent of mails, and Henry Lipmann
and Walter S. Mayer $4,000 each as su-
perlntendents of registry and money
orders, respectively. All three have
been in the postofficc service for nearly
forty years. They will have until
Wednesday to decide whether or not
they will continue work at the reduced
compensation.
AT the time Of their suspension bv
order OF DR.. Hubert Work, First AS
slstant Postmaster General, the latter
declared that the robbery could have
been prevented by full observance of
obviously proper precautions pre-
scrlbed by the department rules.
There has always been a no-man's
land IN the New York Postofice,' ne
said, "in which no one assumes rc
sponsibility. This s2,o00.O00 holdup
has revealed absolutely inexcusable

three superintendents will be forward
