NY. Fair Statues
 Believed to Herald
 New wArt Standards

New York-As vivid examples of individualistic effort, more than 60 pieces of sculpture are expected to set new standards of art at the New York Worlds fair.
 This forecast has been made by Grover A. Whalen, president of the fair corporation, who, in a recent interview, detailed the sculptural program of his enterprise for the first time. Then ne stressed its implications.
 "Our sculpture" he said, twill re- fleet, above everything else, the spiritual independence of the true artist. It will also reflect a democrat ic America which is clinging more tenaciously to it's individualism than at any other time in history. The exposition in 1893 gave to the easy- going nation of that era an exag- gerated taste for the classical-for the conventional and initiative. I now believe that the New York worlds fair will stimulate both artists and laymen to express them selves freely, without formulation, but with greater imagination than ever"
 All the fairs sculptors, MT Whalen reported, are creating in heroic pro- portions. James Earle Frasers statue of George Washington, alone, will be 65 feet high and mounted on a 30-foot pedestal. At least two artists have eschewed plaster for entirely new media. One of them, Robert Poster, has wrought hls symbolic statue. Textiles" In steel according to c newly patented pro. ees.
