Mr. Duke's fund embraces properties now valued at approximately $46,000,000 and will ultimately amount to $86J)00r 000. By Mr. Eastman's plan the beneficiaries will gain $1200,000. This brings bis public gifts to a total of $58,602,000, These gifta are Interesting and Important in themselves and also aa they touch various phases of American Ufa. Both millionaires began Ufa at the bottom of the ladder which fact again emphasises the fact that this la a land of equal opportunity, even if aU men are not created equal. Neither millionaire has a college education, yet both have made the bulk of their gifts to collages which fact would eeem to have a bearing mi the ttueh-vexe- d question of the mission and value of the American college la the Twentieth century. Both million elree have mads their gifts while they are alive and can eee the results. Both millionaires have made their fortunes largely through frankly monopolistic methods which fact raises the question: What has become of the "tainted money" Issue that balked so Urge a few years agoT It looks as if the American people have decided that there la no such money. To bo sure. Rev. Dr. John Roach Straton of New York recently declared before the Baptist Bible Union of North America that the Rockefeller money was the greatest curse that rests today upon the ItaptUt denomination. But other Baptist ministers criticised Doctor Straton severely and declared, "Not since the apostolic age has the world had two greater benefactors than John D. Rockefeller and hla win." Anyway, the Rockefeller benefactions now amount to nearly $600,0(10,-00- 0 and are continuing works The Rockefeller foundation, for Instance, hoe Just given Yugo-Slavl-a fiVi.OOO for educational The son lias Juat given $1,000,000 to purposes. the Mctniiolitan MuReum of Art in New York. lie la nlao ejiendlng several million In an effort to construct homes in New York city wltliln the Incomes of working people. The Duke and Kastman benefactions top off a long list which brings the total for 1924 in excess of $130,000,000 and the total for the last ten or twelve years to nenrly two billions which facts seem to Indicate tlmt the Inspired American millionaire Is a real rather than an imnginary personage. One of the must notable gifts of the year was that of J. Plerpont Morgan, w ho put Into the hands of trustee, to be incoriioruted as a library, the famous collection gathered by his father. Its nominal value la $8,500,000, but It la literally priceless. George F. Baker, who has been chairman of the board of the First National Bank of New la at his desk every day, Tork and at elghty-fon- r gave $5,000,000 to the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration. Among the securities set aside by Mr. Duke are about three-fourt- h of hla holdings In the Southern Water Power company, making available an Income of about $2,000X100 a year. Pointing out that he has for yean been engaged In developing water-powe- r resources of North and South Carolina, Mr. Duke, in a statement, says that my ambition Is that the revenues of such developments shall administer to the social welfare; aa the operation of such development la administering to the economf-- welfare of the communities which they serve." He then commends to the trustees the securities of the Southern Power company ae the prime Investment for the funds of the trust and advises the trustees not to change such Investments unless urgently necessary. The Duke trust will be administered by IS trusbody ; ho him-e- lf tees, constituting a la one of them. The trusted are directed and empowered to expend not exceeding $0,000,000 In acquiring lands and equipping buildings in North Carolina "to be known and operated aa Duke university," with thle provision : If Trinity college at Durham sees fit to changs Its nama to Duke university thle sum may be expended In expanding and extending Trinity. (The trustees of Trinity have made the change in name.) The trust provides that 20 per cent of the Income shall be retained each year and added to the principal until a total of approximately $86,OOOXXX) la reached. The other 80 per cent of the Income la to be divided as follows : APBH to-Stati- on sraff: tarn Eu Bel! System Office t&S&&2gS5 JbJvi Z? The Mountain States Telephone & Telegraph TfacAefellsr Jr. .

The following complete list of hla benefac lions to date la approximately correct: Five par cant to Davidson college, Davidson, N. a Presbyterian Institution. Flvo per cent to Furman university, Greenville. 8. C., a Baptist Institution. Four per cant to Johnson C Bmith university, Charlotte, formerly known as Biddle university, a negro school.

(value at data of delivery, July 1, 1114), abou1 CH I recognize that education, when conducted along sane and practical line, as opposed to dogmatic and theoretical linen, la, next to religion, the greatest civilizing Inllucnce," says Sir. Dukes statement in giving hla ronsuns for creating Duke university. He asks that a faculty assuring the university a place of real leadcndilp in the educational world" be secured and that courses be arranged primarily for training preachers, teachers, lawyers and pbyslcluna. Hospitals have been selected aa another means for distributing the income of the trust, because, according to the statement, they not only minister to the comfort of the sick, but increase the efficiency of mankind and prolong human life. Mr. Eastman's new gifts of $12,5jn,KK) follow a recent announcement of a gift of $2,500,000 In the Greater University of Rochester campaign. Those to benefit under the latest gifts of Mr. East man are: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, $4,500,-00which la added to a previous gift of $11,000,-00University of Rochester, $0,000,000; Hampton Institute, $1,000,000, and Tuakegee institute; 0, 0; Of Mr. Eastmun's total of $5, 002,900, the sum of $23,578,500 has been given to the University ef Rochester. Despite the fact that these new gifts mark the disposal of the lust large block of hla personal stockholdings in the Eastman Kodak company, Mr. Eastman makes It dear that he will continue to direct the affairs of the company and hopes to as long as he lives Gifts made and not announced before are nnder terms similar to those made to employees. Stock la sold to benefiting Institutions for $12X500,000 less than Its actual value. While provision la made that It may be paid for In Installments dor-lothe life of Mr. Eastman, It la given without any restriction regarding the time for sale. It may be sold at once If the beneficiaries desire to part with It. Explaining the motives actuating gifts, Mr. Eastman said: On of tho rsaaons why I welcome this disposition of ay kodak stock la that It separates mo from monoy-makin- g for mysolf and will give mo tho benefit of a somewhat mors datachsd position In rasped to human affairs. I look forward wits Interest to finding out how much tho changed condition will nffoet my slant on current affairs. Th reason I selected a limited number of Institutions wos because I wasted to oover certain kinds of education and felt that I could get results with tbs Institutions named quicker and mors dlrsdly than If tbs money was spread. Under the host conditions It takes considerable time, sometimes years, to develop the wise oipendlture of money In any line, no matter how well prepared on may ba I am now upwards of seventy years old and faal that I would like to see results from this mousy wllbln the natural term of my remaining years.

Its president is Dr. William 1. Few. Trinity has been for many years the center ef higher education for Methodist of the state. Some of the state Methodist leaders were frankly against the change In acceptance of the Duke gift, saying It would bang crepe on the door of North Carolina Methodism." The alumni were divided. President Few, however, favored the change. The trustees met, accepted the gift and made the change in name. James Buchsnsn Duke was born In 185T on s little farm near Durham, N. C Uls father, Washington Duke, returned from the Confederate ranks after the Civil war to find a ruined farm. The father and his sons, Brodle L, Benjamin N. and James; cured tobacco In s log barn, granulated It , by besting it with flails and peddled It about the countryside.
