ROGERS WAS SECRET GIVER Hooker Washington Tells of Liberal Aid to Tuskegce Institute. NEW YORK, Mav 31. Booker T. Washington has revealed the fact that for many years H. II. Rogers aided in the support of scores of schools in the South. The Standard Oil official asked Mr. Washington to act as his almoner and Insisted that his benefactions be kept secret. In giving an account of this unknown phase of Mr. Rog-ers" activities, Mr. Washington said: "The first tima I ever met Mr. Rogers waa in this manner: About 15 years ago a large meeting was held in Madi son Square Garden concert hall "to ob tain funds for the Tuskegee Institute. Mr. Rogers attended the meeting, but came late, and as the auditorium was crowded he could not get a seat. He stood in the back part of the hall, however, and listened to the speaking. "The next morning I received a tele gram from him asking me to call at his office. When I entered he remarked that he had been present at the meet ing the night previous and expected the hat to be passed, but as that was not done he wanted to 'chip in some thing," thereupon he handed me ten $1000 bills. In doing this he imposed only one condition thaj the gift should be mentioned to no one. "I cannot now recall the number of times that he has helped us, but in doing so he always insisted that his name be never used. He seemed to enjoy making his gifts in currency in this manner."
