Our museum buildings are open, attendance is increasing, educational work is being restored, construction is going forward, debt is being reduced, and fine works of art have been acquired. Many of these gains are still precarious. What we need now is to establish them on a solid footing which will end hand-to-mouth financing and permit the resumption of our remaining public services. For this we need the cooperation of the City government as well as private support. Philadelphia has in its Museum a reat civic asset which draws visitors from all over the country and rom abroad. It should recog nize the worthiness of Its own Civic possession. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
