Frederic A. Delano, chairman of

ming Commission. emphasized that the
Mellon Gallery is exclusively for rec
ognized European artists and their
masterpieces In oil paintings and
sculpture. The proposed gallery would
exist to encourage contemporaneous
and future artists. especially OF this
country. but would not exclude older
art. To 1t would probably be trans
ferred some $4,000, 900 to 10000, 900
worth Of noted art collections now the
property of the Government In a Ma
tional Gallery OF Art, but most of
which Il stored in the basement of the
New National Museum.

nsent u asked to contribute the site
for the proposed supplemental art
gallery. and to maintain the gallery
under the Smithsonian trustees after

he gave his word to the Library Com
mittee, that there is no intention Of

propriate for the building. and that he
feels confident the funds for the

that there are two sites under con-
sideration-one on the south side of

ward the building. He said the Gug-
genheim Foundation also is consider
ing an important contribution.
Miss Leila Mechlin, secretary of the
American Federation OF Art and art
critic of The Star, told the committee
