Aid Extended
Around Globe

New York. July 26.-A review
of the work of the Rockefeller
foundation in 1920 made public to
day showed that the organization
extended its activities virtually to
every quarter of the globe.
The foundation brought TO a
close its participation in the war
time emergency relief by giving a
million dollars to European chill
ren. A million francs were appro-
priated for the Queen Elizabeth
foundation for medical research in
Belgium and an agreement was
entered into whereby the founda-
tion win contribute toward the
complete rebuilding of the medi-
cal school Of the University of
Brussels.
A total of $4,000 900 has been
voted to four of the most strate-
gically situated schools in Canada,
to insure proper distribution of the
three hundred physicians which it
is estimated the dominion needs
each year.
