Frederick Trubee Davison, the American's new president, and George Herbert Sherwood, its harried director, have found that their available $1,600,000 is $123,000 too little.

They closed exhibition halls in rotation, ten at a time, except Saturdays and Sundays when only four will be shut. The visitor...
