All Inhabitants of the country have been asked to send In any existing relics they may have of such animals, and eye-witness accounts of having actually imn them.

ART IS FORECAST BY NOTED PAINTER PARIS (TJP) Modern painting ts neither better nor worse than the art of the past, sccordlng to Suzanne Valadon, 70 year old French painter and mother of an equally famous painter, Maurice Utrllto. Mme. Vala don. who held an exhibition In Paris In January, says that modern paint ing Is merely another link In che chain which connects ths art of ihe past with the art of the future. "Thus our modern painting must serve as an education for the paint ers of the future, whose work will he something entirely new and unex pected." said the veteran artist. "Much of the fine artistic work of the future will come from America. I am convinced that this young and enthusiastic race soon will produce very fine-art.
