New York, December 31, 1916 



* The annual appropriation of the City can be used only for the maintenance of 

 the Museum and is inadequate for this purpose. It cannot be used for the purchase 

 of specimens or for the expenses of exploring and collecting expeditions. The de- 

 ficiency in maintenance for 1916, amounting to $65,000, has been met from the Trus- 

 tees' General Account.
