tivity Of the Red Cross magnified
beyond all proportions because of
the foods and disasters which
struck the northeast and far west,
taxing the capacity Of the organi-
zati0n's personnel and pocket
books, Governor Boggs asserted.
The chief executive pointed ont
however, that the Red Cross had
arisen to every emergency through
sheer viii power and faith in

services to such an extent that
funds were exhausted.
Governor Boggs said, Il sincere
ly hope that during this month our
citizens will recall the services
rendered at home and throughout
the nation by our Red Cross" and
called for everyone to generously

National Gallery Displays
New Kress Collection

With the help of some of the
Nations notables, the National
Gallery of Art last night cele-
brated its 18th anniversary and
prepared to open its doors today
upon a display of priceless paint
ings and sculpture from the
Samuel H. Kress Foundation.
A group of $50 distinguished
persons assembled at the, Gal
lery last night for a preview of
the impressive exhibit.
Beginning this afternoon. the
public is invited to view the 10
paintings and "a pieces of sculp-
ture. The Gallery will be open
from 2 until 10 pm. today, and
on weekdays from 10 am. until
5 pm.
There was no formal cere-
mony to mark the anniversary Of
the Gallery. Most of those in
vited to the preview. however,
had been dinner guests of the
director and Mrs. David E. Fin
ley at the Sulgrave Club.
In honor Of the occasion, three
Marine bands played. These were
stationed in the rotunda and the
garden courts, ablaze with the
color Of azalea plants.
For Andrew Mellon, whose
forethought and fortune gave
the Gallery to Washington, the
18th anniversary would have
been an inspiring event. The
late Secretary of the Treasury
wanted this Capital to become
one of the great cultural centers
of all the world.
He acquired as many great
masterpieces of art as he could
Then he commissioned Architect
John Russell Pope to draw plans
for a museum. 1t is said Mr.
Mellon placed no limit on the
cost of the structure but speci-
fed that it should not look ex-
pensive. This is because he des-
pissed ostentation.

now the National Gallery of Art

Virginia and several Other
States have found a way to cope
with the identity probelm-at

These States conduct the per-

His official permit is mailed to

Permits Mailed
If police or an aggrieved mo-

have a starting point in a bona
f1de address-even if the permit
holder has since moved.
In Virginia, inspectors are I'M

further Identification If they
have any suspicious about the
permit seeker. They also use
other methods of trapping a
suspect into revealing his true
