5 80, 19: OCEAN FREIGHT RATES SCORED IN REPORT Advances in Some Instances Have Reached 1150 Per Ceat. Washington, Jan. 25.—Ewvidence of extraordinary advances in Atlantic fréight rates since the out- break of the European war, amount- ing In some instances to 900 and even 1,150 per cent., was presented to the | menate today in a joint report from Secretaries McAdoo and Redfield. “While this report is being written,” the statement says, “information is received that rates are higher than those given in some of the tables pre- sented, and that even at these extra- | ordinary figures it is difficult to obtain +€argo space for earlier sailings than March and April.” Contains Numerous Tables. The report contains numerous tables of rates on various commodi- tles from American to European ports and summarizes the principle ad- vances since August 1. The report declares that year, If American exports maintain the December, 1914 level, the in- creased rates will make a charge of $216,224,400 on American shippers and that the imports be included on the same basis of calculation, the amount would reach the sum of $311,864,400 or 141.6 per cent. over the usual cost. If normal rates are taken in conjunction with the ab- normal on the December basis the &leight charge on both exports and ports in- a year would make the grand total $582,110,000. Unable to Get Bottoms. The report contains several score Jetters from business men over the eéountry declaring their inability to get bottoms for their freight, and charging discrimination by such car- riers as are in business against freight ‘that pays a low rate and the break- dng of contracts by at least one of the big trans-Atlantic steamship com- panies. The report concludes with an argument in favor of the ship pur- chase bill in which the senate is re- minded that such unusual freight charges, if continued, may result in 7 creating a big balance of trade against this nation. It points out that of American ships in all trade worth | ®mbout $600,000,000 the Bureau of | Navigation says that only ships valued at $69,000,000 are in the forelgn | trade. By some the argument is made, report says, that the gov- ernment should not do anything to cause competition with this $69,000,- | 000 of private capital invested in | ships, although foreign trade is left - thereby entirely at the mercy of foreign shipping interests:- and the relatively small amount of American capital invested in ships engaged in the foreign trade.” The nation’s combined exports and imports for the fiscal year ended June the report says, totalled 25, Yromptly Secured. “It has bee:. itated that if the shipping bill is passed, additional tonnage for our foreign trade cannot be quickly obtained., This is incor- rect. While we have made no effort » to test the markeét for ship offerings, we have been assured by no less au- thority than Bernard N. Baker, of Baltimore, a man .of the best charac- ter and standing, who developed to a high degree of prosperity the Ameri can Transport line, of which he was for many years president, and who is thoroughly familiar with the ship- ping trade, that many suitable and s admirable ships for the purpose can “be promptly secured. “‘Some of these ships are already completed and can be had immediate- 1y, some -are partially built and can be finished in a few months, and others can be bought and transferred from steamship lines or routes where the demand for accommodations is not so great, to the service of Ameri- ' can commerce. Others can be secured in a reasonable time from American ship yards which are well equipped in one $3,785,3 Can .. THREE REASONS Each With Two Legs and Fingers.

Among other things she says: “Three chubby, rosy-cheeked boys, Bob, Jack and Dick, respectively, are three of our reasons for using and recommending the food, Grape-Nuts, for these younsgsters have been fed on Grape-Nuts since infancy, and often between meals when other chil- dren would have been given candy. “I gave a package of Grape-Nuts to a neighbor whose 3-year-old child was a weazened little thing, ill half the time. The little tot ate the Grape-Nuts and cream greedily and the mother continued the good work, “‘and it was not long before a truly wonderful change manifested itself in the child's face and body. The re- sults were remarkable, even for Grape-Nuts. § “Both husband and 1 use Grape- Nuts every day and keep strong and well and have three of the (finest, healthiest boys you can find in a day's march.” Many mothers instead of detsroy ing the children's stomachs with can- 1y &nd cake give the youngsters 1 handful of Grape-Nuts when are begging for something in the way of sweets.

Period of Prosperity. “We are satisfied that the removel of the oppressive restraints now ex ercised by foreign steamship com- panies upon our export trade will give it an extraordinary impetus. and bring to our country a period of enlarged and unexampled prosperity. “The fact that our expandng trade shows, at the moment, favorable bal- ances is an argument that our com- merce moves freely and without in- jury, or undue burdens.

This deprecia- tion on the ships owned by the com- pany is 6 per cent. per annum which is the practice of the best private lines and is in excess of the depreciation charged by many privately ownead lines.” TELLS CONNECTION Robert Hunter's Story Satisfies Pros- ecutor and Houston Man Leaves Madison for Pittsburg.

New York, Jan. 25.—The Rockefel- ler Foundation today made public its | replies to questions asked by the Uni ed States comunission on industrial relations as to the reasons for the es- tablishment of the $100,000,000 foun- dation, its purposes and methods of operation. One of the purposes of the inquiry | now being conducted in this city by industrial commission is the investiga- tion of the Rockefeller and Sage foun- dations. The information given out | by the Rockefeller foundation today already been forwarded the | commission. In addition John D Rockefeller, Jr., president of the foundation, will be called before the | commission as a witness. Divided Into Two Parts. The replies by the Rockefeller foundation are divided into two parts, the first of which is signed by Mr. Rockefeller, Jr., as president and by Jerome D. Greene, as secretary. Complying with the commission's | request the foundation has supplied the commissioners with copies of the foundation’s charter, constitution and by-laws. Replying to other questions the foundation stated that it was not a consolidation of pre-existing organ- izations but a distinct creation with its own funds. Total Funds $103,£30,8 The total funds of the foundations on Dec. 1, 1914 are stated as $103.- 930,817. Its holdings of stocks and bonds are given in det: The chor- acter of its investmen controllcd by the finance committee composed of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Starr J. Murphy and Jerome D. Greene. Ap- | propriations are made by the board of directors or the executive commit- tee. The amount of its holdings is not limited by its charter. No part of the principal is to be distributed except by two thirds vote of all mem- bers. One condition of John D. Rockefel- lers's gift of $100,00,000, establishing the foundation was described as stip- ulating that the sum of $2,000,000 of its income or as much of that sum as | he might designate shall be applied during his lifetime to such spacific ob- Jjects within the corporate purposes of the foundation as he may direct. Entitled to Gift. The officers declare that they have) no expectation of receiving any fur. | ther funds but that the foundation | is entitled to receive gifts from any source. The General Education Board, they say, is an independent corporation with funds of its own; but lump sums have been appropriated for the use of the International Health Commission. The major part of the work of the Foundation consists, it is stated, in making contributions to other philan- | thropic agencies. Appointment of King. Searching questions were the commission as to the the appointment by the Rockefeller Foundation of William Lyon Mac- kenzie King, of Ottawa, Ont., to make a study of industrial relations. Re- plying to a question whether Mr. King was authorized to go on with his .plans even if his policy should be divergent fram that of the directors, the Foundation asserted that the con- duct of the work will be left in his | hands subject merely to conference with officers of the Foundation and to its control as to the extent of ex- penditure On this subject the Foundation declared: Industrial Relations Division. Explaining why the Industrial Re- lations Division was created, the Foundation stated: ‘“While the gen- eral subject of economic research was under consideration the industritl dis- turbances in Colorado impressed the president of the Foundation with the great need and public importance of finding an effective means of prevent- ing such conflicts and caused him to | urge a far reaching study of indus- trial relations as the most important immediate inquiry to which the Foun- dation could direct attention. In view of the passion aroused in Col- orado and the many divergent inter_ ests involved there, it was felt that the Foundation itself should not inter- fere in that situation, but that it was of the utmost consequence that the root causes of that and similar distur- bances should be ascertained, and, if possible, removed, not only in Col- orado but elsewhere. “The Rockefeller Foundation is, moreover, a large owner of corporate securities, and in that capacity is it- self directly conterned in maintain- ing harmonious relations be- tween the companies in which it is interested and their em- ploves. It was therefore felt that if the Foundation could work out, on a basis compatible with sound econom- ics, a substantial improvement in the relations between capital and labor, it would not only discharge its ob- ligation as indirectly a large employer of labor, but would also perform for the general public a greater social gervice than It could render along usual philanthropic lines.” Asked if the work of the industrial relations division will be limited to investigation, the Foundation replied that it has purposely avoided assign- ing definite limits to the method or scope of the work, It is not expect- ed, the Foundation states, that Mr, King will prepare formal plans, but will proceed along lines that offer | the greatest promise of practical re- sults. to asked by reasons for Hookworm Disease. international health commis- sion, a subsidiary of the Foundation, Tas confined its activities almost en- The that are real.—advt. tirely to the eradication of hook- | Morgan Kingston, STOMACK UPSET.1 Get At the Real Cause—Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets That's what thousands of stomach suf- ferers are doing now.

They have no power to elect officers, to employ labor, to | make contracts or to intervene direct- 1y in the management of the business. A large stockholder, however, is able to exercise considerable moral in- fluence over the directors and officers and is responsible for exercising that influence properly. ‘““The directors are responsible for the general conduct of business, they have the power to elect officers and to determine the policies of the bus- iness, All large business has to be organized.
