The report in part says: “The Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorfal was founded in October, 1918, by John D. Rockefeller in mem- ory of his wife, Laura Spelman Rocke- feller. The memorial is incorporated for general charitable and philanthro- piec purposes and is net limited geo- graphically in its fleld of operations. “During the period beginning with the memorial's incorporation and end- ing on December 31, 1922, the sum of $3,361,871.12 has been paid on ac- count of appropriation, made by the board of trustees, Further appropria- tions of 43,486,388.66 are awaiting the fulfillment of eonditions for payment, Admihistrative expense has amounted to $43,861.81. The income of the memorial during this period has been $13,606,048.865. “The past three years have wit- nessed urgent demands for relief from starvation and disease in Europe and in China and $he memorial has been able to make substantial contributions, in these emergoncies. To the China famine fund, $250,000 was pledged. Hungrey Children Fed “For relief in Europe the memoria’ has contributed to the resources of the American Rellef administration tl.-'m be largely concerning her husband 292,916, Of this amount $1,000,000 was applied toward the feeding of children in Europe. ““The balance includes payments on account of two appropriations, one of $500,000 for transporting medical sup- plies from Russia, and one of $100,- 000 for feeding Russian refugees in Constantinople. > “During the past four years the memorial has contributed $3,992,- 501,43 to organizations working in the flelds of social welfare and public health. Appropriations for work in these fields raise important questions for a fund such as the memorial. For it is necessary to discriminate care- fully between tha- responsibility of contemporary society, on the one hand and of the endowed foundations on the other, if really substantial pro- gress in human welfare is to be se- cured. Attacks Basic Problems #Funds such as the memorial are large enough and permanent enough to make it possible, by planning over a period of years, to attack really fundamental problems of human wel- fare and to reach relatively remote ends. It is from the standpoint of this opportunity that the memorial looks in the determination of its policies and in the cultivation of its field. “In 1920 the memorial appropriat- ed $500,000 to the principal fund of the national board of the Y. W. C. A, and in 1921 an additional $200,000 was appropriated to be applied toward a retirement fund for employees of the board. Other appropriations to the board. “To the international committee of the Y. M. C. A. tor its work in this country and abroad $333,997.04 has ¥ been contributed during the period of years represented. In addition to this amount $750,000 was appropriat- ed to the retirement fund of the Y. M. C. A. toward a total amount re- quired of $4,000,000. “The trustees of the memorial have been impressed by the broad national importance of the Y. M. C. A. and Y.|, ‘W. C. A. in promoting on interdenom- inational lines the physical, intellec- tual and moral welfare of the young men and young women of this coun- try. “The Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts have been aided both in their regular work and in special activities. To the Boy Scouts $100,000 was appropriat- ed toward a revolving fund of $350,- 000, which is used to enable ghe or- ganization to take care of the large| inventories which must be carried if the boys throughout the country are to be promptly and economically sup- plied with the equipment that is so necessary for the sucecessful conduct of scouting.” AUTO FATALITY, 1 ARREST.

Divisions of the latter al- ready are in the field. Senator Couzens declared for en- forcement of the Volstead law, but al- 80 for modification of its interpreta- tlon of intoxicating liquor: He holds that beer of less than five per cent aleoholic content is not necessarily in- toxicating. The declaration resulted in a con- troversy between the senator and na- tional officials of the Anti-Saloon league, and the state Anti-Saloon league announced its intention of go- ing out to ‘“beat Couzens.” The or- ganization hopes to do it either by supporting one of the avowed candi- dates who is considered dry, or by put- ting its own candidate into the race, it is indicated in present activities. Dry leaders assert that prohibition sentiment, is stronger in Michigan now than it was in 1916, when an amendment to the state constitution placing Michigan in the dry column was adopted 853,378 to 284,754, Wet proponents counter with the asser- tion that the rapid growth of indus- trial communities has stored up an immense volume of votes favoring re- peal of the dry laws. The drys claim that the farmer communities and the large counties, previously dry, will stay dry. The wets reply that a few precincts in Detroit or the other in- dustrial centers will poll more votes than entire out-state counties, and that if Senator Couzens decides to run he will sweep Detroit and other manufacturing communities. Luren D. Dickinson, former lieuten- ant-governor and an active dry work- er, issued a warning to his forces that the issue must be met in the prim- ary.
