By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 20.-Secretary
Perkins asserted last night there was
a real danger" that old people were
being led to expect the impossible by
visionary" old-age pension plans.
Small, steady allowances built up
by regular contributions during early
and middle life are a definite possi-
bility for u.s." she said.
Miss Perkins did not mention any
Scheme" by name. She frequently
has said, however, that the Townsend
plan was impossible
Unemployment insurance and the
other provisions Of the administra-
tion's social security bill also were re-
indorsed by the Labor Department
chief.

tenn of unemployment insurance" she
said, "in which there is a systematic
and cooperative saving toward the

himself over periods of difficulty.
mo one believes for a moment that
unemployment insurance will take
care of all our troubles. The best cure
for unemployment is, of course, en-
ployment.

everything else and the efforts of the

painting from the Hermitage Gallery
in st. Petersburg seems sad to him,
he replied, "Yes, you are so rich in
such treasure here, and we shall need
them by-and-by." In other words,
while Iacovleff is one with the cour-
age to adventure, in some ways a
modern, he is one who respects tradi-
tion and knows its worth, an artist
whose quest primarily is beauty in
strength and power.
At present Alexandra Iacovleff is
teaching drawing and painting and
design in the School Of Art conducted
by the Museum of Fine Arts at Bos-
ton. He is completely absorbed in this
work, enthusiastic over his pupils and
their potentialities. But he has prom
ised to stay only another year. 1t
was because of his Boston classes that
he spent only day in Washington,
attending the luncheon that was
given in his honor yesterday by the
president of the National Geographic
Society, and leaving after the formal
opening of his exhibition.
From today for fortnight this ex-
hibition will be open to the public.
It contains not only the portrait
studies to which special reference has
been made, but also group of 26
paintings Of scenes on the Asiatic
journey elaborated from memory

route. Among these. most notable is

kind. They are essentially outstand-

kind. They are essentially outStand-
ing.
Among the most interesting of these
is one of the Sarikoli guide and hunter
who served Kermit Roosevelt and the
Morden-Clark expedition in their hunt
for the Marco Polo sheep.
Another is of Baba Daria, the chief
of the boatmen on Afghanistan's
great River Helmand, under whose
direction the seven tractor-type cars
were ferried across.
A third is of Chaldean woman of
Baghdad whose face might well be
that of a saint capable of martyr
dom. What Malvina Hoffman has
done in sculpture ia recording the
races of mankind, Iacovleff has done
in drawing.
African Art Published.
But this expedition was by no means
his first adventure. About 10 years
ago he crossed the African continent
with the Haardt motor expedition and
brought back valuable collection of
drawings of African chieftains and
types from little-known tribes, which
have been published in book form. He
also has travelled extensively in Asia,
and has published. in limited editions,
works on the Chinese and Japanese
theater. He processes disinclination
to stay long in any place and has in
born the spirit of the explorer.
Alexandra Iacovleff is a man in
the late 40s; alert, wirey, with clear
cut features, betokening breeding and
sensitiveness; also keenness of per-
ception. His education in art was OBJ
tained in st. Petersburgh, before the
revolution, when the great Russian
Ballet was making history. He had
no connection with the ballet, but he
and his colleagues met and mingled
with the artists who made it in the
Art Association, of which all were
members. His training was of the
austere type-his associations were
with those of epoch-making creative
ability which he doubtless shared.

The artist is Russian by birth and
training, but the majority of his pro-

French auspices. When the Citroen-
Haardt expedition crossed Asia from
Beirut to Peiping by motor car it was
accompanied by Iacovleff, who made
a remarkable pictorial record of the
trip.
This trip took nearly a year and
was achieved under the greatest diff
