Selfish MOTIVE
BEHIND BIG GIFT
MAYOR TOM |. JOHNSON, or
CLEVELAND, SEES A DEEP
SCHEME IN GENEROSITY OF
ROCKEFELLER.

Cleveland, O., Feb. 9.-The gift q
1872 100000 to the General Education
Board by John D. Rockefeller Is con
sidered in the light Of a protective
measure by Mayor Tom l.. Johnson.
The mayor b licyos that the mojya
Of the Oh King III making The dgna.
ton was a selfish one. The gift, he be
Ilieyos, IS expected at some future time
to act as check upon The onslaught,
that may be mada on Rockefeller's
public service corporations.
They mayor al. o ntimaed that no
educa,i ,ional institution in which the
principles of political economy are
taught would be recognized in the dis.
triluticn Of the benefits Of the enor-
nous donation. He said that the
board In charge Of the funds would see
that no such institution was bene
flied.
"What sort Of eift was it any
way?' the mayor asked. II was not
cash, as I understand it, What was
1t, then? Let us suppose the case.
Was it Standard Oil stocks? Hardly
Was it the bonds of cities states
or perhaps railways? Most lik ly it
was ralroal securities.
Mortgage on the Future,
"Eeyery one of these is a mortgage
on the future. They total $32, 600 000,
sufficient to have bought he Cleye,
land electric and to have made the
city of Cleveland handsome dona
tion But that would not have answer
ed his purpose, There would have
b. en- no future effect
Some day It will develop, perhaps
hal The special privileges hat these
enjoy ard that the people
are becoming educated more and mors
every year to curtail and withdraw
will be threatened. This will result
in a sudden squeezing out of the
water in these stocks.
Great Cry viii Go Up.
Then there will go up cry that
the great educational interests de
pendent upon the return from these
5ecuriti are threatened. There will
be ak also Of what the widows and
orphans are in danger Of losing. May
be a condition will be presented that
may have protective effect for the |
involved.
Il understand that a board in the |
asst will have sole charge of the dis
ribution Of The funds. Right here
predict that this board will not bestow |
lne dollar of these securities upon any |
Institution ntaining chair of polit-
cal economy that teaches the truth Of
What wealth really is or of what these |
securities are.
