ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION

The Rockefeller Foundation, be-.
sides taking care Of its large welfare
work and general humanitarian OBJ
jects, which are charges upon its boun-
~, gave nearly sS,O0O,Oo0 10 war work
in the past year. This is d notable
sum when the income Of the Founda
ton is taken into account. In re.
view Of the work of this philanthropic
institution for 1917. it is made plain
thai if the Foundation were to con-
tinue during 1918 to support war work
at the present level of appropriation,
almost the total income from invest
ments accruing would be required for
this purpose alone. This means that
unless gifts for war activities are
sharply reduced there will be inroads
upon the principal fund.
The trustees Of the Foundation have,
within the provisions Of its charter.

institution, for instance, could select
the worlds leading authority on a.
certain disease. provide staff and all
necessary funds and send him 10 for
eign countries in order To eradicate
from the world one Of the deadliest OF
infectious maladies. 1t would be d
mistake, therefore. for the Rockefeller
Foundation 10 hamper itself by adopt
ing intiexible rules, or 10 tie its own
hands with red tape. Yet there are
things which it cannot successfully or
wisely do. 1t cannot, for example, give
money or make loans TO individuals, o.
invest in securities which have phi
lanthropic rather than a business ba-
sis, or assist in securing patents or
aid altruistic movements which in
volve private profit. II must refrain
from supporting propaganda which
seek TO influence public opinion about
social and political proposals, however
disinterested and important these may
be.

are being made at home and abroad

gained cooperative undertakings.

cies. The aim always kept in mind is
not 10 assume governmental or social
functions, but TO show that certain
things can be done successfully, and

pie are beginning to wonder II this ad-
minis,ration has intended its "pitiless
publicity" exclusively for enemy eyes.
Just recently Senator Orerman, OF
North Carolina. declared that he would
raise his former statement that there
were 100000 German spies in this
country, made rat the time the esplon-
age bill was pending. 10 100000. y

the enemy. Another German subject
has Just been caught having in his
possession a secret code. diagrams OF

These two spies will doubtless be
given a vacation in Atlanta at govern
ment expense. a gentleman who was
fred from the National Museum for
his pro-German utterances was
promptly employed BY George Creel
in his official publicity bureau. These
are instances which could be multi
piled over and over again. II is time
