CHICAGO UNIERSITY WILL
SPEND MANY MILLIONS
FOR NEW STRUCTURES
CHICAGO, 111., Dec. 13.—The de
velopment program of the University
of Chicago involves obtaining $17,
500,000 during 1925, which will be
spent principally for new buildings
and in creating an endowment fund,
it was announced today by Harold
H. Swift, president of the board of
trustees and Ernest DeWitt Burton,
president of the University.
In securing this sum for its im
mediate needs, Swift said, the in
stitution must rely largely upon its
^ alumni, citizens of Chicago and the
middle west. John D. Rockefeller,
who has been the university’s larg
est benefactor, made his final con
tribution in 1920.
Tne most pressing need for the
university, the statement said, was
for $6,500,000 for endowment ofj
teaching and research. It is the in-'
tention to accomplish within fifteen;
years, if possible, a doubling of the,
present resources of the university—
approximately $54,000,000.
“We do not aim to create the
wealthiest, nor the largest, of Amer
ican universities,” said Swift. “What
we seek is to build the best possible
university for service in the region
and in the particular fields where its
/ opportunities and responsibilities lie.”
The building program under the
$17,500,000 project includes $4,600,
000 for instruction and research; $3,
000,000 for development of the col
leges, and $3,400,000 for service
buildings. A commitee composed

STONE TO PUT TAX PUBLICITY UP TO COURT IN TEST CASE
United States Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone at his desk in
the Department of Justice, working over the tax publicity tangle just;
before his announcement ,on October 28, that he would file suit in a test I

of many of the prominent men and j
women in this section has been ap-!
pointed to superintend the compaign.;
“It has been apparent for some j
time that the university could not
carry on its work, meeting the con
tinually growing demands of the re
gion it serves, without greatly in
creased funds,” Swift asserted. “It
desires to pay to members of its
faculties salaries commensurate with
their services; it desires to engage
some of the world’s best teachers
anil research workers. Hence its am
bition to obtain new endowment and
then to provide new buildings to
meet some of the most serious needs
as regards facilities for work.
“The university is determined to
maintain its Jiigh standards, but, de
spite its fine educational equipment,
it finds difficulty in maintaining
these standards. Our responsibilities
to advanced students are greater
than those of many universities
which have a greater preponderance
of college students and also that
some of those institutions, particul
arly state universities, operate on
budgets, that are much larger than |
that of the University of Chicago.’'j
