American Intervention might pre-
vent a further Russian encroach-

which was of great assistance to
her during the war. But there are
many cynics in official Washington

the American note courteously and
assure us that it is keeping aloof
from any Intervention in Iran.

Chalcograbhic Museums

Founding a photographic museum
was major provision of the will of
Joseph Pennell, who died in April,
1926. He left nearly the whole of
his estate to the Division of Prints
of the Library of Congress; income
was to pe used to add to the collec-
tion of Whistleriana, which he had
given in 1920; to augment the Pen
nell collection; and to found an
American Chalcography, and buy
etched plates and photographic stones
by artists of note, from which prints
would be made and sold for a NOM
inal sum.
There are three national chalco-
graphic museums in existence, in
Rome, Paris and Madrid. Before the
war, they issued original prints,
pulled from noted artists plates or
stones, but marked with a govern
ment stamp, in order that unscrupu-
lous dealers might not acquire and
resell them at fabulous prices as
artists proofs" CThe Smithsonian
Institution has marked the Dahl
S1Cch CeCiihiSo, DtG oO illl1iutCly
that one needs a strong glass to de-
tect it,
The Pennell collection at the Lii
brary of Congress has grown an
nually; but nothing has been done
about the chalcography, because no
provision was made for the costs of
printing and marketing. One may
be able to demonstrate the possibil-
tty Of covering these costs by sales.
The Artist and His Work
Charles w. Dahlgreen, who is now
81 years old, was born in Chicago,
and has continued to be associated
with that city. He studied at its

plates, which had been used only
slightly will be sold to the public at
nominal prices, and that the pro-
ceeds will make up the Charles W.
Dahlgreen Fund for the improve
ment of the Smithsonian graphic
arts collections.
Prints for this first exhibition
have been made from 40 of the "a
plates in the collection. They have
been printed upon handmade paper
by professional printer, and their
quality is excellent. They are on
sale at the Division of Graphic Arts,
Smithsonian Building, and also at
the information desk in the Natural
History Building, of the National
Museum. With Christmas only three
weeks away, the Division of Graphic
Arts could not have chosen a better
time to inaugurate the Smithsonian
Institution Edition of fine prints.
They would make admiral gifts.
Mr.. Dahlgreen, who was present at
the opening of his exhibition, said
that in making this gift of his plates,
he contemplated only the building
up of the Smithsonian Institutions
graphic arts collections; that he did
not specifically envision the estab-
lishment of chalcography. How
ever, Mr.. Tolman, curator of the Di-
vision of Graphic Arts land acting
director of the National Collection
of Fine Arts said that if other print
makers followed Mr.. Dahlgreen's
lead. their plates will be used in the
same way.
