Some Control by Elder Rockefeller.

One condition of John D. Rockefel-
lers gift of s10O.OOO.OO0 establishing
| the foundation was described as stipu-
lating that the sum of 100000 of its
income or as much of that sum as he
might designate shall be applied dur
ing his lifetime to such specific objects
within the corporate purposes of the
foundation as he may direct.
The officers declare that they have nc
expectation Of receiving any further
funds, but that the foundation is en-
titled to receive gifts from any source
The general education board, they say
is an independent corporation with
funds of it's own; but lump sums have
been appropriated for the use of the
international health commission.
The major part of the work of the
foundation consists, it is stated, In
making contributions to other philan-
thropic agencies.
Searching questions were asked by
the commission as to the reasons for
the appointment by the Rockefeller
Foundation of William Lyon Mackenzie
of Industrial relations Replying to a
question whether Mr.. King was au-
thorized to go on with his plans even
if his policy should be divergent from
that of the directors, the foundation
asserted that the conduct of the work
will be left in his hands, subject merely
to conference with officers of the foun-
dation and to it's control as to the ex-
tent of expenditures.
Not to Apportion Blame.
On this subject the foundation de-
clared:
1T cannot be too clearly understood
that the purpose of this inquiry tMr.
Kings, is not to apportion blame in
present or past MISUNDERSTANDING. nor
to justify any particular point of view;
the sole purpose is constructively help
full. In a work conceived and under
taken in such spirit any question OF
divergent policies or of partiality in
the investigation can have no place.
The foundation has felt that If it would
work out sound and substantial i'm
provements in the relation of capital
and labor, it could hardly do anything
better calculated to promote the we'll
being of mankind. for which purpose
the foundation was created"
Mr.. King controls the field. scope and
methods of his investigation, the foun-
dation asserts. and it has not refused
to continue an appropriation for any
piece of work or investigation which
had been agreed upon.

PORTLAND WATER

Attorney Moulton Of Portland,
counsellor for the Portland Water
District, has been in Augusta recently
for a conference with the Public
Utilities Commission in regard to the
proposed 100000 bond issue for the
Water District. One half the amount
to be raised, or approximately one half,
is to be used to retire notes coming
due: the other half is for extensions.
Attorney Moulton, when asked why
a municipal water district was requir-
ed to receive the permission Of the
Commission before issuing bonds, ex-
planned that the law SO provides and
that though on first thought it would
seem illogical to make such a re-
quirement, yet certain favorable re-
suits might come Of the appearance
before the commission, and especially
to the advantage of people living in
communities where the water supply
is controlled by private ownership.

Looks as If the January thaw was on
in good earnest. Many people thought
the mild spell and rain of about week
ago was the thaw, but the weather
which has developed since the snowstorm
of Sunday has every indication of being
the real thing in the thaw line. Sunday 8
snowstorm turned to rain in the evening
and continued we'll into the night, being
followed Monday morning by fog. Just
before noon it began to rain once more
and continued during the afternoon and
evening, the rain coming down at times
heavily Reports from up river stated
that late in the afternoon it was raining
heavily at The Forks. 1t is probable
that there will be some little rise in the
Kennebec river. but nothing OF any
amount, more than enough to keep the
mills running, as the water at the pres
en- thine is very low.
