NEW LONDON QUARTERS PUBLIC INTEREST INCREASED British Wirelesß RUGBY, Sept. 13 The removal of the Geological Museum from its former cramped quarters in Jermyn Street, off Piccadilly, to a spacious new building in South Kensington, where the League's international monetary and economic conference was held in 1933, has been justified already by the increased interest; shown by the public in the exhibits now attractively set out. These provide a fascinating introduction to what hitherto had been one of the less popular of the sciences. Since the opening of the new premises two months ago there have been daily attendances of 10Q0, compared with the former annual total of visitors of under 21,000.
