The auction of a Renoir, the gift of an anonymous donor, has provided $30, 000 for the United Jewish Appeal of Greater New York.

The painting, “La Fete de Pan, ” was purchased at auction by Mrs. Robert Gurney, wife of the textile industrialist. The donor had directed that the profits of the sale be divided among the UJA of Greater New York, the New York Herald Tribune Fresh Air Fund and the Colonies de Vacances, a Swiss agency for underprivileged children.
