Jerome D. Greene or New York
is n of the four members Of John
D. Rockefeller's committee which
handles the oil magnate's philan-
thropies. MI. Greene has been
working to get the Peters bill,
granting the articles Of incorpor-
alton to the Rockefeller founda-
ton of 500, O0O, 900 through con
gress. The bill was passed by the
house recently, and the senate will
consider it shortly, Speaking of
the purpose Of Mr.. Rockefeller in
creating the foundation, Mr..
Greene says: This is a founda-
ton of charitable intent. The OBJ
ject is to promote the well being
and to advance the civilization Of
the people of the United States in
the acquisition and dissemination
of the knowledge Of eleemosynary
and philanthropic means Of any
and all of the elements of human
progress.
The question of how the Rookie
Teller foundation is to spend it's
money is a legitimate n for the
public to ask before the charter is
granted, especially In the light of
ignorant forehodings lest a large
sum of money might seek the pro-
lection Of a charter for private
rather than for public ends. This
question is answered, first, by the
uneqnivocal language of the chart
er, pledging the use of the money
exclusively for charitable and hu-
manitarian purposes. subject to the
control of congress, and secondly
by the concrete Illustration of how
these same resources have been
used while under the private con-
troll through the general education
board, the sanitary commission for
the eradication of the hookworm
disease, and the Rockefeller insti-
tute for medical research.
