Jr., to the Metropolitan Museum of Art has made possible the building of the structure pictured here. The "Cloisters" and surrounding grounds will occupy four acres In Fort Tryon park overlooking the Hudson.

It is hoped the new buildings will be ready for public inspection in 1038. a, rV -- JflrVi Here are John Iltys Hammond, Jr., and the Diamnntina, converted which he lits refiitted and on which he proposes to sail around the world. Hammond will try to discover the locality and cause of certain dead spots at sea where radio waves are inactive, and also wilUpromote the development of faster and more efficient sailing craft to compete rum-runne- r with power vessels. The project will supplant the present Cloisters built by George Grey Harnard, noted sculptor, to house the statuary and art objects he has acquired. He sold his art collection to the Metropolitan museum In 1925, and lent its trustees the property and building that the collection might not be moved. With the construction of the Rockefeller building, the original building will revert to Mr. Barnard. The building pictured above will be one of the most beautiful In America, and will rank favorably with notable European museums.
