Rockefeller, Jr., fol- lowed his father’s example and in the 1910-1928 interval, made gifts totalling more than $60,000,060. Be- fore that period, the Rockefeller gifts had been numerous and gen- erous and they continued after- wards. One of the largest later Rockefeller contributions was $1.- 000,000 to the New York City Em- ergency Unemployment Committee in December, 1930. Early Conrioutions Mr. Rockefeller's earning and giving always over-lapped. He started his contributions as a boy —5 cents a week to foreign mis- sions, 3 cents a week to the poor. And many years later—whether at Pocantico Hills, Lakewood, N. J. or Ormond Beach, Fla.—he spent a certain amount of time each day keeping up with business af- fairs. Although it was frequently said | that he was much more actively concerned with business than most people thought, Mr. Rockefeller, the founder of the Standard Oil Company and pioneer in modern business organization, had become something of a legendary figure. He was much better known as a whimsical old gentleman who spent his days in peaceful monotony at his three country homes, passing THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, MAY 24 Some of the Hi ghlights in the Life bfA As a Groat-Grandfather, With John and Elizabeth DeCuevas at Lakewood, N.

Mr. Rockefeller began his re- tirement in 1896, but retained the title' of President of the Stand Oil Company of New Jersey untii November, 1911. That wa after the Standard Oil combina- tion had been dissolved by Federal Court decree. From Retirement In 1929, nearly 20 years later, he publicly émerged from his retire- ment on two occasion. Early that year he announced that he would support his son, John D. Rocke- feller, Jr, in an effort to prevent the re-election of Col. Robert 'W. Stewart as director and chairman of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana. He was then 89 years old. In October, 1929, when there was a crash in Wall Street, he from Pocantico Hills a r statement in which he s he and his son did not believe there was' anything in the business situation to warrant the destrue- tion of values recorded in the pre=- ceding week, and announced that they were peoth buying common stocks. The market rallied. At the time of his accounts of the simp! n which he lived and the frugality of his diet led to a popular belief that he was in poor health, a chronie sufferer from indigestion. Mr. Rockefeller many years later said that this was not true, that _.he bhad always enjoyed rugged health, rement, just | @ possibly because of that very regi= men. Plays Gelf As a matter of fact, Mr. Rocke~ feller's life at Pocantico Hills and th John D., Jr., in 1930, his other homes did not differ so very much from that which he had always lived pt that, instead of spending three or four after- outdoors, he spent , motoring en a he 90's, he continued to play -gdlf every sunny morning, ex- | cept Sundays. | At the height o1 his business career, Mr, Rockefeller directed the affairs of 33 oil companies and| influenced indirectly the policies of | hundreds of corporations, including ! many forms of modern industry. Their combined capitalization ran | into the billions, and they employ- ed hundreds of thousands of men and_women. | For several years his companies controlled four-fifths - of the oil; business in the United States.

Effner. adv.-24 SEE FEMMER FIRST For all kinds of feed, Phone 114, Over $1,000,000 in Annual Taxes QUESTION: //%at does a stable market for Alaska’s Canned Salmon mean for our school children? ANSWER: Alaska’s schools are high in educational standards—their graduates are accepted without examination by leading American universities. To maintain these high standards the Territorial Treasury spends more than a half million dollars a year. Alaska’s Canned Salmon Industry pays more than 70% of the taxes collected by the Territorial Treasury. In addition, the Industry pays taxes to the Federal government, a large portion of which are returned to incorporated towns of the Territory and used for school purposes. A stable market for Alaska’s Canned Salmon will enable the Industry to continue its annual tax payments of more than $1,000,000—a large part of which goes to the support of Alaska’s educational system.
