Washington, March 2.-Steps were
taken today to incorporate the Rookie
feller foundation of the District of
Columbia. The bill for this purpose
was introduced by Senator Gallinger.
and was referred to the House COM
mittee on judiciary. The purpose of
the foundation is to provide for a gen.
eral organization to conduct philan-
thropic work along all lines. 1t is un-
derstood that the foundation will be
endowed largely by John D. Rookie
feller, and that he takes this means
to dispose of large part of his enor-
nous wealth.
The incorporators named In the bill
are: John d. Rockefeller, John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., Fred T. Gates, Starr
j. Murphy and Charles o. Heydt
These incorporators are authorized to
select assistants, not to exceed a total
of twenty-five, and it is provided that
there shall not be at any time less
than five.
1t was said by Senator Gallinger to-
day that Mr.. Rockefeller already had
given away s52,O0O,O00, and that he
was seeking a method of disposing of
his fortune that would benefit man.
kind. The Rockefeller foundation will
be authorized to receive and dispense
gifts Of money other than those OBJ
tanned from the original endowments,
the amount of which has not been
| fixed.
The scope Of the foundation is very
broad. although embraced in a. very
short fraction of the bill This Sec
| ton reads:
THAT the object Of the said corpor-
alton shall be to promote the WELL
being and to advance the civilization
| Of the peoples of the United States,
and its Territories and possessions,
and of foreign lands in the acquisition
and dissemination of knowledge, in
the prevention and relief Of suffering
and in the promotion of any and all
of the elements Of human progress.
While drawing generally along the
lines of the Act incorporating the
Carnegie foundation, it goes much
| further, since the Carnegie foundation
| is designed chiefly to provide for q
scientific retirement and pensioning Of
| superannuated teachers.
When asked regarding the bill Sena-
tor Gallinger said:
"I am not authorized to speak for
Mr.. Rockefeller. But there is no
| doubt that Mr.. Rockefeller intends
to give away his money on a scale
greater than any other living man. I
am not acquainted with all of the
details of Mr.. Rockefellers plan, but
it is expected that Washington will
be made the headquarters
