New York, Mar, 31.
The launching of a national museum movement, which, for the first time, will enable the art, his tory, science, commerce and industry museums of the country to attack jointly their common problems, has been announced by Mr. Laurence Vai] Coleman, secretary of the American Association of Museums. At the same time, Mr. Coleman made public the fact that a grant of $30,000 has been made to the association by one of the big educational foundations, on condition that an additional $55,000 be raised from museums and their supporters. Encouraging progress already has been made toward securing this amount and the completion of the fund is in sight, the secretary said.—Revter.
