Last week, it was decided to reserve $100,000 for landscape gardening, $100,000 for an endowed upkeep and to proceed at once to build with the balance. The design will be selected by Andrew W. Mellon, John W. Weeks, Charles M. Schwab. Mr. Mellon is an art collector, has Rembrandts and Cazins in his Washington apartment. Mr. Weeks and Mr. Schwab are not known to be extensive collectors.
