DEFENDS THE DIARIES.
ID. NJ, Wilson Answers Attack OF Trav-
cling Men.

The petition sent to the governor
by the wichita travelling men IN re-
gard to the poor quality of Kansas
butter has called forth the following
defense Of Kansas diaries by D. M
Wilson, state dairy commissioner.
I'm honest defense Of the honor q
the state and its dairy interests ! am
forced to defend their rights inso-
much as a complaint founded upon
the material furnished by the hotels
ana restaurants as butter would pe
uniust to the dairy interests OF not
onlvo Kansas but of this great COM
monwealth. since the first OF De-
cember. which marked the special
advance in butter prices, ! have no
ticed that a substitute for butter ID
being quite generally furnished. For
the past two months ] have kept .
close check and find that the greater
number of hotels and restaurants are
using oleomargarine or butterine. As
the writer has had occasion to make
the hotels and restaurants his tenn
porary home / can truly sympathiSe
with the commercial travellers.
This department is doing, ana
will continue to do everything in its
mower to Improve the conditions com
MANNED OF. but as there is no law
regulating the sale Of oleomargarine
in this state the first real RELIEF that
we can legitimately expect VIII De
when the fresh spring make Of butter
reaches the markets and the price Is
lowered close to that which Is now
being paid for butterine.
"In regard to the condition OF Kan
sas cream, as complained Of BY the
petitioners, am frank to admit that
great improvement is needed ana
we are hopeful of securing this I'M
movement in the very near future
To some it may be interesting TO
know that not until 1907 did Kansas
lhave any particular legislation gov
erning the manufacture and sale Of
dairy products. While most OF the
surrounding states have had in effect
a dairy law for the past 10 or Is
wears. Kansas neglected this impor-
tant matter. The first dairy law
which was enacted by the legislature
was impracticable, as It did not apply
Ito the actual conditions that existed
This was in a measure due to the sew
eral amendments made at the time
the bill was passed. To make It less
effective only $4,000 was appropriate
ed for its enforcement. Again, during
the session Of 1909 a strenuous effort
was made on the part Of those who
were familiar with the conditions
and who appreciated the necessity
of having the dairy law amended and
a greater appropriation to make pos
sIble its enforcement. Provisions
were made in these amendments gov
lernIng the age Of cream, the sanitary
conditions surrounding its production
1 transportation and manufacture. i
also provides that those who handle
dairy products must have a permit
i granted By the state. These permits
are only granted to those who pAsi

Mr. Murphy explained that he doubted

more particularly the scope Of the foun-
dalton.

Requests for Help.

Mr.. Murphy incidentally gave some in
teresting sidelights on the number Of re-
quests which Mr.. Rockefeller received for
financial help The Standard Oil magnate.
he said, gets from 400 to 500 letters day
of that kind.
Once, he said, he asked the clerk in
charge of the mail to save some foreign
stamps for one of his children. Late in
the afternoon the clerk gave Mr.. Murphy
an envelope full of foreign postage stick
ers, explaining they were off letters re-
,eived in one day.
Interested to see the range of the re-
quests. geographically, Mr.. Murphy
found he had the stamps of twenty-five
different countries in North and South
America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Aus
tralia.
Mr. Dillingham; asked the meaning of
the provision in the bill giving the cor
poration power Ito accept and administer
any trust Of money or real or personal
estate for any purpose within the object
of the corporation"
In response, Mr.. Murphy explained
that some persons desire to use the adj
ministrative force Of the Rockefeller
charity boards for philanthropic purposes.
because it reduces TO almost moth
ing the administrative. cost. The pro-
vision in the bill. he explained. will Al
low the Rockefeller foundation TO do
the same.
The explanation indicated that the
Rockefeller foundation could thus be
made the clearing house for interna-
tional charity work of all kinds.
No Exemption by State.
Senator Carter raised the question
whether or not the provision OF the bill
exempting the personal property of
the foundation from taxation implied
that Congress had power TO exempt the
property from state taxation. Mr.. Muir
ply explained that such was not i'll
tended by the language, as he under
stood that Congress had no such power
AT the conclusion OF the statement Of
Mr.. Murphy the committee, in executive
session, voted to report the bill for favor
able action by the Senate.
One minor amendment was made. To
the clause providing that all personal
property and funds of the corporation
held used or invested for its purposes
aforesaid. or to produce income to be
used for such purposes, shall be exempt
nom taxation the committee added the
words by the United States or any ter
ritory or district thereof"
This was TO meet a possible objection
that without the amendment Congress
would be assuming To exempt the per
sonal property from state taxation-a
power which. il is recognized. it does not
possess.

Devine's Criticisms Answered.

The criticisms of Edward T. Devine, sec
rotary of the New York Charity Organi-
zation, we're next considered. Mr.. Devine
commended in the first place. that Con-
gress should have some power over the
naming Of the incorporators.
Mr. Muhpry pointed out that the m
generators are named in the bill ana
that il gives them power to select thelr
successors. From long experience IN
charitable work, he said. IL mas peen
found that self-perpetuating boaro oi
incorporators is best. 1t insures the ap-
nointInent of men to run the corporation
bv those most familiar with Its needs ana
aims. -.
If Congress were given some power 10
name some of the officials in charge or
the foundation. he said. 1T would propapis
name some public official
IF public officials are appointed de-
cIared Mr.. Murphy, II fear they VIII be
embarrassed with requests for aid
He explained that all the members OF
the boards through which Mr.. Rocke1eller
is now doing charitable work receive
many requests for aid
Senator Gallinger caused a ripple or
amusement by remarking that since he
had introduced the bill to incorporate the
Rockefeller foundation. he has received
more than 100 letters asking help.
for SO he remarked, and ended with
a proposition for a contribution of
100000
That agrees with our experience. re-
marked Mr. Murphy. THE requests
range from an appeal for a set of false
teeth to an appeal for one hundred mil
lion dollars.

EIliott's Denial of Criticism.

Mr.. Murphy next took up some of the
criticisms of the proposed corporation
printed in the newspapers. At first he
asked the committee to receive a letter
written by ex-President Elliot of Har-
ward to John d. Rockefeller, jr., in which
Mr. Elliott declares that there is not a
word of truth in the alleged interviews
with him criticising the Rockefeller fouh-
dation. and that he has refused to discuss
the matter with any reporters.
What provision is there in the bill to
prevent the funds of the Rockefeller
foundation from being used for other
than benevolent purposes? What pro-
lection against the misuse of the funds?
These questions. Mr.. Murphy said have
several times been raised since the bill
was introduced.
The bill gives full protection in that
particular. declared Mr.. Murphy, and he
gave several reasons. As a matter of law
he said. the government had control over
charitable institutions, and the bill rec
ognizes that by the provision that the
foundation shall annually file with the
Secretary of the Interior a report show
ing its operations for last year.
There is further protection in the final
paragraph of the bill. which provides that
this charter shall be subject to altera-
tion. amendment or repeal at the pleasure
OF the Congress of the United States"
That language, when used in other
laws, has been construed by the United
States Supreme Court, declared MIR. Muir
ply. 1t has been held that the hands OF
Congress are not tied by the charter, and
that Congress can put into the charter
at any subsequent time any provision IL
could insert when the charter was 1lrst
granted.
Mr. Rockefeller, he said, is content 10
leave the power over the charter III the
hands of Congress.
