The Fruits of a Fortune

toward the accomplishment of their
aims.
1t was for the carrying out of these
purposes and for these ends that the
Carnegie Corporation came into
existence, holding the undistributed
portion of Andrew Carnegie's great
fortune. A majority of the original
Trustees were the executive heads of
the separate benefactions which have
been named, and, had they chosen to
do so, they might have divided the
entire residuary estate of Andrew
Carnegie among their own several
Trusts. Fortunately. they pursued
wiser and a more far-sighted course,
and while the primary moral obliga-
ton upon the Carnegie Corporation
remains to see to it that the separate
Trusts are adequately endowed for
the accomplishment of their several
purposes, there is also opportunity
for still broader and more varied use
of the income of the Corporations
endowment fund which, if wisely
directed, may well make Andrew
Carnegie's name famous and beloved
throughout this land not only for
generations, but for centuries to come.
If one wishes to know what Andrew
Carnegie's benefactions have already
accomplished, let him turn to the
elaborate reports of the several Trusts
which are published year by year and
which set out in fullest detail just how
every dollar of income is spent, and
with what result. The causes of ad-
vancement of scientific knowledge, of
the protection of the college and uni
versity teacher and of the education of
the worlds public opinion toward that
international cooperation which alone
can establish international prosperity
and peace, have gone forward nightly
year by year, Subtract the effect of
Andrew Carnegie's benefactions from
these noteworthy objects. and their
history during the last quarter r-century
could not be written.
Andrew Carnegie's faith in his
fellow man and his lofty idealism are
nowhere better shown than in his
letter, dated December ID, 1910, to
those whom he first chose as Trustees
of the Carnegie Endowment for Inter
national Peace. In that letter he wrote
these words:
when civilized nations enter into
such treaties as named, and war is
discarded as disgraceful to civilized

the final distribution of his vast accu-
mutation which. of course, was
only after the sale of his property to
the United States Steel Corporation
- his mind moved along certain very
definite but different lines. He in
tended from the first to do for his
native land and his birthplace some
thing that would testify his affection
for them both; therefore there came
the Carnegie United Kingdom Trust,
the Carnegie Trust for the Univer-
sites of Scotland and the Carnegie
Dunfermline Trust, the names of
which indicate their aim and purpose.
To testify to his regard for the city
of Pittsburgh. where the foundations
of his fortune had been laid, he
brought into existence the Carnegie
Institute, the fine work of which for a
long generation is well known every
where. Acting upon a chance sugges-
ton of the late Richard Watson Gil
der, he established the Carnegie Hero
Fund in order that there might be
recognition of heroic acts performed
in the peaceful walks of life and that
pensions might be granted to heroes of
civil life who had been incapacitated
through some fine act of their own,
and to their widows and dependents.
There remain the three great dom
mating intellectual interests of An
drew Carnegie's later years. These
were the advancement OF scientific
knowledge, the better protection of
the academic teacher against the
needs of dependent old age and illness,
and the abolition of war by the es-
tablishment of international peace on
a firm moral and political foundation.
In respect to all these proposed
benefactions, Andrew Carnegie's mind
thought in terms of unit of $10,-
100000. His practical sagacity led
him to protect his chosen Trustees
and his ideals by the provision that If
the endowment of $40, ,OO0 600 proved
to be too much for the designated
purpose, his Trustees might apply the
income of their capital fund to some
allied object of their own choosing.
On the other hand, he repeated
again and again that if the sum OF
SlO,OOO,OOO should prove insufficient
as an endowment for the purpose
which he had selected, then recourse
should be had to the Trustees of his
residuary estate, the primary purpose
of which was to protect these specific
Trusts and to see to it that they re-
ceived enough support to go forward

The store was a bedlam. Loud
speakers poured out the exciting It'd

been sighted in mid-ocean; that if the
record time he was making meant
anything, the entire flight would be
made in less than thirty hours! He
would arrive that afternoon.

She was very quiet as they drove to

The airport was crowded. Airplanes
droned and capered aloft. Station

the little group that had gathered be-
side the radio truck.

Steve's brain whirled. His mouth
opened and closed again against the
dryness of his throat. All around him
was space - blue with sky and white
with sunlit clouds. Then queer sort
of exhilaration filled him, and words
began at last to come. He felt sud-
denly no fear of anything in the world.
A crazy optimism possessed him and
gave his voice note of hopeful excite

Once, in a pause, he sent a swift
glance at Lynn, who sat in bucket
