Smarting under criticisms, Mayor
Kern said he did all he could to get

hampered by Federal officials.

AID NEEDED BY
PRIVATE CLASS
OF INSTITUTIONS
Hugh S. Johnson Points Out
Income Lost Because
of Depression.
BY HUGH s. JOHNSON
Times Special Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. ga serious
aspect Of the depression is its eff
feet on educational institutions, hos
pitfalls and other foundation de-
pendent on incomes from endow-
ments, trust funds and on private
donations.
These are being hit BODY blows
from every angle.
The government policy of cheap
artificial credit has pushed rates Of
interest so low that their basic reg
ular income is seriously reduced.
The continued uncertainty and
sterility in the investment market
makes trustees prefer to keep funds
liquid even at the expense of lost
income, and that is another blow.
Taxes are high and gifts are not
sufficiently exempted to leave much
leeWay for great giving, and that
also hurts.
Wrong View Held
But worst of all is the rapidly
spreading and increasing popular
error to the effect that govern
ment is doing the work of private
charity in taking care of unfor-
Inmates and that therefore private
donations are no longer necessary.
Exactly the reverse Of this is true.
The vast relief funds are necessary
to keep life in the bodies of the joo-
less and they are not sufficient for
that. Destitution is much wider
than relief. This leaves less than
nothing over from relief funds to
replace or even supplement the eff
forts Of privately maintained
schools, hospitals and other insti-
tutions to help the sick, the manned
and the handicapped.
Money Buys Less
At the end of a long depression,
the human Wreckagc accumulates at
a far more rapid rate than during
its continuance. Prices go up and
the pennies of the poor buy less.
Savings and reserves are exhausted
and more proud persons are finally
forced to make bravely deferred ap-
peals to charity.
The load on these institutions is
at its highest peak. Their incomes
are at their lowest dip,
Private charity is needed now
more amply and more promptly
than at any time during or before
the depression.

grees south, in 1911 a feat which was duplicated by Captain Scott in
 1912 and by Rear Admiral Byrd in
 1929. The difficulties attendant up on travel to the extreme south are indicated by the fact that although about thirty attempts to reach the Month Pole were made between 1887 and 1928, the record of antarctic ex- ploration does not open until 1774, continued by the annals of less than a dozen exploratory efforts up to the present time. The gasoline engine, radio, flying machines and other in ventionS have made travel in low or high attitudes easier than they were in the days when such explorers as Gen. Greedy had to press forward with a little grub on a dog sled; but that circumstances does not dim the glory of Byrd. He was the first to lay before the public elaborate about the ice-capped south.
