BIG FUND TO END WAR
Mr.. Carnegie Gives $11, 800, 900
TO Promote Peace.

Washington, ID. c. Especially -
President Taft has consented to be.
come honorary president of the $10,-
100000 International Peace Founda-
tion, which was presented to board
of 20 trustees composed of men of
international reputation by Andrew
Carnegie.
The gift is in the form of $10,0O0,-
600 in 5 per cent. first mortgage
bonds which have a market value of
$11,500,00O.
The transfer was made at meet
ing in the rooms of the Carnegie Re
search Foundation. The trustees
chose Senator Elihu Root, of New
York, as their president. Senator
Root is also permanent representa-
tive of the United States at The
Hague Tribunal. 1he purpose of the
foundation is the abolition of war.
His Plan World-Wide.
While Mr.. Carnegie refused to dis
close his entire plan, 1t is known that
he expects to see worldwide organ
ization which will be created by this
vast gift
The distribution of 100000 a year
which the $10,O00,00O endowment
will yield, is to be left entirely in the
hands of the trustees. 1t is consider
ed possible that the trustees will CO.
operate with Secretary of State Knox
to propote the proposed peace court.
While Carnegie's gift was unex-
pected, 1t caused no great surprise
among the promoters of the world
peace movement in Washington, as
in recent years he has shown an in.
creasing interest in the work. 1t is
known that he has been putting aside
other activity to devote himself al
most wholly to the cause.
Carnegie's Purpose.
In the trust deed Mr.. Carnegie
says:
Although we no longer eat oui
fellowmen nor sack cities, killing
their inhabitants, we still kill each
other in war like barbarians. Only
wild beasts are excusable for doing
that in this, the twentieth century OF
the Christian era, for the crime OF
war is inherent, since 1t decides not
In favor of the right, but always OF
the strong. The nation is criminal
which refuses arbitration and de.
ceives it's adversary, which knows
nothing of righteous Judgment"

Exchanging professors with Ameri-
can institutions of learning is an in
)creasing practise among educators
abroad. For several years the inter
change has been going on between
this country and Germany. and some
of the ablest of our teachers have
served in Berlin and elsewhere, while
Terman professors have done similar
work in American universities and
colleges, says the Troy Times. Now a
prominent business man of Copen-
hagen has given 500 900 to the Scan
'dinavian-American Society to pro-
mote the interchange of professors
between American and Danish univer-
Bities. The Rhodes scholarships.
Through which American students re-
ceive the benefit of advanced courses
at England's great university of Ok
ford, furnish another illustration of
the solidarity of learning which Incl
dentally must tend to draw nations
nearer to one another.
