REPORT OF THE SECRETARY. 49 



Arthur W. Meeker, J. Pierpont Morgan, Charles P. Taft, Charles D. 

 Walcott, and Henry C. Frick (deceased). 



That the gift of these paintings to the National Gallery might be 

 thoroughly national in character, it was decided that a group of 

 these portraits, financed by the art patrons of any city, would be in- 

 scribed as presented to the National Gallery by that city and that a 

 representative of that city should become an honorary member of the 

 National Portrait Committee. It was further decided that a tablet or 

 other permanent record in the National Portrait Gallery should bear 

 the names of the National Portrait Committee, including the chair- 

 men of all local committees ; and that there should be a record of the 

 names of each subscriber to the purchase fund. 



Twentjr portraits completed under this arrangement were exhibited 

 in the National Gallery during the month of May, 1921, and these, 

 with such others as may be subsequently completed, will be shown in 

 a number of cities throughout the United States before being per- 

 manently installed in Washington. The exhibition is being circu- 

 lated under the auspices of the American Federation of Arts. The 

 portraits available for exhibition at the close of the year are as 

 follows :
