THE first permanent effort to pro-

1882, when a commodious Office build
ing was erected at 100 Wellington
street, Ottawa. Last year. the United
States purchased the estate Of the
late Warren Young Soper in Rock
cliffe and began at once to adapt 1t
to its destiny as official residence for
the American Minister. The situa-
ton and spread of grounds were ideal,
and the chief alteration thought desir-
able was the removal of the heavy
porches, which deeply shaded the IA.

The addition of the Ottawa Legation
at this time comes upon an apt but
little-known anniversary. Just 100
years ago. the first diplomatic mission
ever sent from the American Colonies
was dispatched to this same neigh
boring country of Canada. Benja-
min Franklin was at its head, and he
and his companions hoped to secure
Canadian assistance against England.
He succeeded only in winning an as
surance Of neutrality. an amicable
state which has continued for a cen.
tury and half.
Although the Dominion was the
setting for Americas first efforts at
diplomacy. the two countries have
only recently been formally represented
at each others capitals. -Four Amer
ican Ministers only have served at
o Ottawa-William Phillips, appointed
in 1927; Hanford MacNider, the late
Warren Delano Robbins and the pres
ent incumbent, Norman Armour. Be-
fore 1927, affairs were conducted
through Great Britain or by specially
named commissions. which, explains

- REAT interest attaches to the
exhibition of Paintings and
Sculpture for Federal Build
ings, produced under the Fed
eral Art Projects, sponsored by the
Treasury Department, which opened
IN the Corcoran Gallery of Art this
week, to continue until December l3.
The entire second floor of the main
building is given over to it, and the
walls are literally covered by great
canvaSes, frescos, cartoons and
sketches, to say nothing of a section
devoted to easel paintings in oil, water
color and gouache. and section given
over to prints. Such an assemblage of
mural paintings is very unusual.
Following the Worlds Fair in Chi
cago in 1893, there was a rebirth of
mural painting in this country To-
ward the latter part of that decade
the artists who had worked together,
20 harmoniously and successfully, in
Chicago were called upon to decorate
the Library of Congress building then
nearing completion. This was the
first Federal building in which mural
paintings were made an integral part
of the design. Others followed in
quick succession, and for Is or 20
years the mural painters, who had so
won reputation. were kept busy depict
ling on the walls of public, semi public
and private buildings, historical scenes
and allegorical subjects, some of which
are still of outstanding merit. But
even in those good days no one
dreamed of such opportunity as the
Government has afforded in the last
two years, through its lavish giving of
commissions, now numbering upward

bered, is in excess of the more than

vas necessary to call into service
many untried and inexperienced
artists About three-fourths of those
who have been commissioned to paint
murals for Federal buildings under the
Federal Art Project we're heretofore
virtually unknown. With this in
mind, none can say that the results
attained are not short of miraculous.

is correct, then it does not take its

Furthermore, it Is the great art Of
the world that has drawn men to-
gether. This does not have to be
explained, it speaks a universal Ian
guaae-it is neither of time nor place.
Such art has lifted men up, has filled
them with joy, has given new meaning
to life. Merely to paint is not enough,
we must paint beautifully, we must
have something to say that is worth
the saying. All of which Is. in its
way, trite enough not to need the
saying Let us turn to the paintings
now on view.
