Never before-in the history of our educational development has such a large-number of-ififluential people given time and money and definite consideration in a very personal way to the cause Of Negro education. The value of an endowment fund is in its impersonality. Because; endowment funds are impersonal they do not seek to conrroTor dominate?institutions that are the object of their beneficent Very often jwhen_ individuals give large contributions they seek to control policies of the institutions, to wjhicl) they contribute. Not only hav^ white people different shades of groes of all schools of thought representing practically every type of an institution of learning, together with those not catalogued as "school men" as such are-cooperating most pleasingly in all parts of the country. Negro education is getting a boost that it has never had to the ferent angles and so wide-spread in its influence as now.
