Anderson Portrait Ban
Held Due 10 Lack Of Merit

Racial discrimination has abso-
lutely nothing to do" with the re-
fusal OF the Corcoran Gallery of Art
to exhibit q portrait of Marian An
derson, Negro contralto. at its show
next month, according to officials OF
the institution.
c. Powell Minnigerode, gallery di-
rector, today described as false and
absurd" a suggestion by Paul Melts-
ner, New York painter, that his
painting was not selected for the ex-
hibit because of race prejudice
1T is purely a question OF the
merits Of the picture in the estima-
ton of the experts who act as a
jury in selecting the paintings" Mr.
Minnigerode explained. They found
the portrait below our standard re-
quirements and so it was rejected
For the last several weeks group
Of professionals in New York has
been selecting paintings to be in
cluded in the Corcoran exhibition
scheduled to be opened to the pub
lie March 23 A portrait of Phila-
delphia colored pastor already has
been picked for the exhibition, the
gallery director pointed out, adding
that previous exhibitions at the gall
lery have frequently included por-
traits of colored persons.
