GIVES §1.000,00 TOMOUNTAINEERS Kentuckian Also Donates| 16,000 Acres for Education of Hill Peoples. By the Assoclated Press. FRANKFORT, Ky. April 17.—A gift of $1,000,000 and 16,000 acres of rich timber lands from E. O. Robin- son, Fort Thomas, Ky.. capitalist, to: be used in the educational, agricul- tural and economlic development of the mountains of eastern Kentucky, was announced here today by Ed C. O'Rear, president of the board of, trustees of the newly incorporated E. 0. Robinson Mountain Fund. i The University of Kentucky, Lex-| tngton, will take active charge of the work of development, according to. Judge O'Rvar, who with other mem- bers conferred with the board of : trustees of the university as to the best methods of carrylng the state’s, largest institution of learning Into; the mountains of Kentucky. The progrum, now only In embry- onic form, calls for development of the entire mountainous section of the * state on a scale hitherto undreamed of, uccording to Judge O'Rear. Im-. mediate plans, discussed at the joint | meeting, contemplate the seiting | acide of 15,000 acres as a reforesta- tion project and the ultilization of the remaining 1,000 acres for experi- | ment station farms similar to those in operation at the University of Kentucky. AMembers of the board of trustees of the E. 0. Robinson Mountain Fund, arc Mr. Robinson, Judge O'Rear, Le- land G. Banning, Cincinnatl; Fred W. Mowbray, Cincinnati; C. N. Manning, Lexington; William H. Hyden, Clay county, and Menifee Wirgman, Louls- wville. The board is self-perpetuing. The land included in the gift is lo- cated in Breathitt, Perry and Knott countles, according to Judge O'Rear. The timber has been removed from a large part of the land, and it is planned to begin immediately on the reforestation program, gradually ex- tending the.work to other sectlons of the mountains. Plan Model Sche Maintenance of one or more model hools by the University of Ken- tucky in this territory, with exten- sive work in horticultural subjects, is outlined in the development pro- Robinson, characterized by Judge O'Rear as a man of great modesty, sought some meth®d of dis- posing ‘of the money and lands v the greatest good could be and the greatest number of helped. ~ He outlined the formation of a corporation of out- standing men of the state, and the matter of development of the mountains, through the University of‘ Kentucky, was taken up with the board of trustees of that institution. Two farms. of 500 acres each, were set aside to be used in experimental work. These farms are located near Quicksand, Breathitt county. “Mr. Robinson has caused the arm of the unlveristy to be extended into the mountains of Kentucky,” sald Judge O'Rear. “In all the history of Kentucky, no Individual ever has given such a sum for charitable pur- poses. No institution of Kentucky ever has been endowed at the begin- ning with anything approximating $1,000,000. The fine people of the mountatns who have suffered for lack o ac! es and privileges will the benefit of this gitt." e No Strings to Gift. No “strings” are tled to the gift, according to Judge O'Rear, and the trustees are at liberty to spend it as they see fit. If it is found advisable to put the money up 5o that state or federal funds may become available, that can be done. Mr. Robinson owned considerable property involved in the recent Henry Ford deal, and, it is reported, he dis- posed of approximately 42,000 acres when Ford took over the Peabody holdings in Kentucky. LAND WORTH $150,000. Partner of Donor to XKentucky Hill People Tells of Big Gift. CINCINNATI, Ohio, April 16.—Fred W. Mowbray, business partner of E. ©. Robinson of Fort Thomas, Ky., sald tonight the donation made by Mr. Robinson consisted of a trust fund, the income of which would not be avallable for the use of the University of Kentucky until after the death of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson. During their lifotime they will receive the Income from the fund, but Mr. Robinson has arranged to pay the expenses of de- veloping the land for agricultural purposes, Mr. Mowbray sald. The cost of such development probably would not exceed $20,000 a year, he added. “The 16,000 acres was a gift from the Mowbray and Robinson Com- pany,” said Mr. Mowbray. “I would place the value at not to exceed $150,000.

Extremely difficult to carry out most tire manufacturers consider its expense pro- hibitive.

By this process the cord fabric is dipped in a heavy solution of liquid gum or rubber. ‘When thoroughly saturated it is removed and ellowed to dry. Thin coats of sheeted rubber are then pressed upon each siéc of the cord fabric in a process called “calendering.” Thus there is double assurance that each sepaxcte cord is completely submerged in live, springy rubber.
