OF an money borrowed by all national

port says in part:
lheir present strong and well-for-
clneo condition, and the fact that their
aggregate borrowings on rediscounts
and bills payable amount to only about
10 per cent of their total resources is
partlcularly gratifying when we con-
Sloer that our people in the last three

American Women
Plan a Life Income
For Mime. Curie
University of Paris Salary
To Be Reinforced With
Surplus of 500, 600 From
Fund Raised for Radium

Nine. Marie Curie is to be provided
with life income with the surplus of
the 100000 fund raised by American
women for the purchase of gram of
radium for her last spring.
The fact that 100000 was left on de-
post with the Equitable Trust Com
pany after Nine. Curie had been pro-
vided with gram of radium and S22,
600 worth of mesothorium was made
public yesterday by Mrs. William
Brown Melonev, chairman of the Marie
Curie Radium Fund, in letter to sub
scribers.
eve are holding the surplus of $780,
0OO," said Mrs. Meloney, pending the
completion of the fund suggested by a
prominent American gentleman, who
offered to collect $4,000 for equipm ent
for Nine. Curie's laboratory if the
women on the executive committee de-
sired to establish an American trust
fund with the money remaining in the
bank, which would provide Nine. Curie
with an income as long as she lives. It
was proposed that after her death the
income from this trust be used to pay
the expenses of two American students
in chemistry and physics at the Sor-
bonnie"
Nine. Curie carried back with her to
Europe gifts of metals which brought
the total value of her Specimen bag"
up to $4,000. She also had in cash
from awards from scientific societies
in this couatry $6,S84.51. This latter
sum she intends to use for the pur-
chase of a house for herself and her
two daughters.
In spite of her exalted position in
the scientific world, she draws a hum
BILE salary from the University Of
Paris, less than $4,000 a year, and all
her experiments with radium have
hitherto been carried on at her own
expense.
Mrs. Meloney received a, letter
from Nine. Curie yesterday expressing
her thanks for all that American
women had done. She was taking a
brief vacation in Brittany and ex-
pected to return to her laboratory
soon.

of the work to date has just about kept
