FUND TO END WAR
CARNEGIE GIVES s1o,ooo,ooo TO Es-
TAsLIsH WORLD PEACE AND
ATTACK EXISTING EVILS.
TRUSTEES PUT IN CONTROL
Perpetual Fund Formed by ironmaster
With Taft as Honorary Head and
Prominent Men as Trustees-Lat-
ter Choose EIihu Root as Chief.

Washington.-Sur by II
trustees of his own choosing compris-
ing former cabinet members, ex-ambas-
sadors, college president, lawyers and
educators, Andrew Carnegie Wednes-
day transferred $10,000000 of five per
cent. first-mortgage bonds, value SILL,
100000, to be devoted primarily to the
establishment of universal peace by
the abolition of war between the ma
tions of the earth.
The trustees organized by choosing
as president United States Senator
Elihu Root, permanent representa-
tive of the United States at The
Hague tribunal. President Taft has
consented to be honorary president
OF the foundation.
The method by which the annual in
come of half a million dollars shall
be expended is left by Mr.. Carnegie
entirely to the trustees. The founda'
tion is to be perpetual and when the
establishment of universal peace is
attained the donor provides that the
revenue shall be devoted to the ban
ishment of the next most degrading
evil or evils" the suppression OF
which would most advance the prog
ress, elevation and happiness of men.
The informal trust deed presented
by Mr.. Carnegie to the trustees reads
as follows:

Of international war, the foulest blot
upon our civilization Although we
no longer eat our fellow meR or tor
ture prisoners, or 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 it decides not
in favor of the right but always of the
strong The nation is criminal which
refuses arbitration and drives its ad-
versary to tribunal which knows
nothing of righteous judgment.
Let my trustees, therefore, ask
themselves from time to time. from
age to age, how they can best help
man in his glorious ascent onward
and upward and to this end devote
this fund.
Thanking you for your cordial ac-
ceptance Of the trust and your hearty
approval of it's object, am, very
gratefully, yours,
ANDREW CARNEGIE"
