RIVAL CROESUSES.

Steps were taken to incorporate the
Rockefeller Foundation in the Dis
trict of Columbia The bill for this
purpose was introduced by Senator
Gallinger and was referred to the
Committee on Judiciary. The pur-
pose of the foundation is to provide
for a general organization to con-
duct philanthropic work along all
lines. 1t is understood that the
Foundation will be endowed largely
by John d. Rockefeller and that he
takes this means to dispose of a
large part of his enormous wealth.
The incorporators named in the bill
are John D. Rockefeller, John d.
Rock efeller, Jr, Fred T. Gates,
Starr j. Murphy and Charles o.
Heydt. These incorporators are au-
thorized to select associates. not to
exceed total of % and it is provid-
ed that there shall not be at any
time less than five.
The Rockefeller Foundation, &C
cording to the bill, is organized to
promote the well being and advance
the civilization of the people of the
United States and its possessions in
foreign lands and for the acquisition
and dissemination of knowledge for
the prevention and relief of suffer
ing and promotion of any and all
of the elements of human knowl-
edge.
While drawn generally along the
lines Of the act Incorporating the
Carnegie Foundation. the Rockefel-
Ter bill goes much farther, since the
Carnegie Foundation is designed
chiefly to provide for scientific re-
tirement and pensioning of super
animated teachers.
1t was stated by Senator Gallinger
that Mr.. Rockefeller already had
given away $50, 100000 and that he
was seeking a method of disposing
of his fortune that would benefit
mankind. The foundation is organ
lied on lines similar to the Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement OF
Teaching. AS in the case of the
latter institution the Rockefeller
Foundation will be used to receive
and dispense gifts of money other
than those obtained from the origi-
nal endowments, the amount oil
which has not been fixed.
Senator Gallinger said:
II am not authorized to speak
for Mr.. Rockefeller. But there is
no doubt that Mr.. Rockefeller In
tends to give away his money on a
scale greater than any other living

withdraw the postal funds from the
banks in time of war or financial
panic and invest them in some $780,
100000 worth of Government 2 per
cent. bond now held by bankers.
As it goes to the House, the bill

Withdrawn by the President in case

of this withdrawal the funds are to
be invested in Government securities
but with the proviso that such Sc

the funds is invested in a board of
trustees composed of the Postmaster

gregate balance allowed to any de-
