However, the White House said Monday he is holding back any final schedule for his trip to the Pacific coast until congress adjourns. He intends to remain here until the administration program is concluded on Capitol Hill. He is definitely counting on going to the California-Pacific International Exposition at San Diego during the late summer or early fall, probably by way of Milwaukee if congress adjourns by that time. ‘The westward route also is expected to include a visit to the mammoth Boulder Canyon dam on the Colorado pletion. meri NONPARTISAN WOMEN NTERNAL GONTEST/TO MEET AT STEELE MARKS MEBTING OF G..0.

In France, people wor- ship in a magnificent old cathedral, reconstructed since the war. In Africa, black children study diligently in a mission school. In Chicago, a delin- quent boy is rehabilitated for useful citizenship. In an observatory, an astronomer looks through a and finds new worlds. In New York, ® scientist’s hand trembles with ex- citement as he examines a slide that foretells the conquering of a dread disease. Isolated amidst Lakewood, N. J., pines sits John Davison Rockefeller, receiving from all over the world congratulations on his 96th birthday. ‘But there wouldn’t be facilities enough for transmitting to him the gratitude ot all the people who have been benefited by his philanthropies. In- deed, on this birthday, millions of these people will not even think of the parchment-skinned, frail, querul- ous old man in connection with their own material well-being. No Gauge of Stature And so there is no very satisfactory way of measuring the stature of John the Old in the field of world attain- ments. No one can estimate the num- or his benefactions to charity. Health services, research organizations and active armies combatting plague spots and epidemics owe their inception and life to-the fortune he founded and his judgment in spending it. Education, sociological research and crime prevention all are causes im- measurably advanced by Rockefeller millions. ‘The amounts of money he has given away would make one sort of yard- stick, but probably not even the Rockefeller family knows the sum. From 1910 through 1931 it is certain that Rockefeller philanthropies total- ed more than $600,000,000. Since then it has been a custom of the donors to make no announcements of gifts, leaving the public acknowledgements, if any, to the recipients. Scores of “small” donations, ranging from $10,- 000 to $100,000, never have been an- nounced, are recorded only by the Rockefeller bookkeepers, and may never come to light at all. $800,000,000 Given Away It is estimated, though, that John the Old and John the Second by now have dispensed some $200,000,000. This makes them by far the greatest . | philanthropists in history, for Andrew Carnegie, who ranks second, gave the | away a mere $350,000,000, Four major organizations dispose of the money. John D. Rockefeller began his retirement in 1896, and made it absolute in 1911. Then, with the same shrewdness he had demon- strated in business, he began to de- monstrate that the art of giving is just as difficult and diversified as the art of getting. He gathered around him a group of experienced advisors and establish- ed @ group of benevolent corpor: ‘|tions. First of these is the Rockefel- quet will conclude the meeting.

Routine in “golf house” with its 25 servants remained unchanged, with any birthday observance barred. The nonagenarian’s son, John D. Rocke- feller, Jr., spent the day with him. “He hasn't felt better in many years,” the son said. At 96 he is long retired from busi- ness activity, WOMEN’S CLUB HEAD VOICES SUPPORT OF STATE SALES LEVY Mrs. W. C. Taylor Expresses Belief Law Should Be Given a Fair Trial La Moure, N: D., July 8—(#)— Support for the state sales tax law ‘was voiced here Monday by Mrs. W. C. Taylor, head of the North Dakota Federation of Women’s clubs. Although pointing out that the fed- eration would take no stand in sup- porting or opposing any political question, Mrs. Taylor said she feels the tax should be given a fair trial, which it has not yet had. “The sales tax law was passed to meet a specific need—to raise the money required by the increased re- Hef calis and to provide the means for keeping open the schools of our state,” Mrs. Taylor said. “To annul the measure at this time, it seems to me, is indefensible for several reasons: “Because the measure has been given insufficient trial. It should have at least a year’s trial before be- ing judged adversely. “Because no substitute means of raising funds has been presented by the persons urging the law’s recall, “Because a successful recall of the Measure would leave our state in a still worse position for raising neces- sary funds for the maintenance of its institutions and obligations. “Because months of delay in es- tablishing any new methods of fi- nancing our relief work and schools would be entailed.” 14 KNOWN DEAD IN NEW YORK FLOODS Four Others Missing; Property Damage Heavy as Rivers Go on Rampage Albany, N. Y., July 8.—(#)—Upastate New York counted 14 dead, four miss- ing, and property damage in the mil- Hons of dollars Monday in the wake of the most violent rain and electric ler Foundation for Medical Research, | Storm Initial Payment to Be 20 Cents g Bushel, Payable Upon Compliance Check Washington, July 8—(7)—A proc- lamation by Secretary Wallace Mon- day established the minimum 1935 wheat adjustment payments at at least 33 cents a bushel compared to the 1934 minimum of 29 cents. Payments for both years, the AAA said, are subject to slight deductions for country administration costs. Chester C. Davis, AAA administrator, said the increase of four cents a bushel for the 1935 allotments represents additional income to cooperating wheat producers of approximately $14,000,000. Under the new schedules, Davis as- serted, producers will receive adjust- ment payments of at least $115,000,000 on the 1935 crop instead of $100,000,000 on the 29-cent basis. No Change in Tax No change was made in the proces- ‘sing tax rate of 30 cents a bushel. The AAA said the additional adjustment payments were made possible by re- serves accumulated from the tax on wheat produced by farmers not under allotment contracts. The increased payment, it was said, will not result in any deficit in the wheat budget since available funds are sufficient to cover the increase, The 1935 payments are to be made in two installments. The first installment, payable as soon as compliance with contracts is checked, will be at the rate of 20 cents a bushel and the final payment will be made when local administrative costs for the fiscal year, 1935-1986 have been determined and deductions made. Officials said the seond installment marketing than 33 cents a bushel. Officials emphasized that pay- ment on the 1935 crop would Ro connection with new four-year gon- tracts now being prepared, Adjustment payments for 1086 weap established at 28 cents @ bushel and increased last year to 29 cents, Auditing of comp! reports, necessary before the 3084 and first 1935 payments can be made, will begin next week. Payments by states on & 33-cent basis were estimated as follows: Minnesota, $2,224,000; Montana, $7,- 494,000; North Dakota, $17,053,000; South Dakota, $5,995,000, DEATH CLAIMS FOUR HOSPITAL PATIENTS John Olson, House Janitor at Patterson Hotel, Succumbs Here Saturday Death claimed four patients at lo- cal hospitals over the week-end.
