Content Description

He offers suggestions which he has already sent to the President. Firstly that artists are allowed three submissions, not two. Secondly, if the Council split into three committees for the selection the work would be lightened, even the porters might adjudicate in obvious cases. He has information that the previous year's selection resulted in one Council member bcoming colourblind, one fast asleep, one in a feint and one extremely cross. Thirdly, men with proven previous exhibiting records be allowed one work without selection.
