Ing of the Rockefeller Foundation In

Schools Itecieve Funds, i
Existing medical schools and hos
pitals at various places in China have
been receiving contributions and aid
from the foundation. The two moft
important enterprises of the organ
ization in China are the Peking Un
ion Medical College, uider construc
tion at the Chinese capital, and the
Shanghai Medical College, the erec
tion of which is expected to be au
thorized at the annual meeting. -
The main purpose of the Institu
tions is to train Chinese as practi
tioners of medicine, according to the
standards of American schools of the
best class. The development of an
indigenous medical profession of a
high order and the ultimate transfer
of htis form of education to Chinese
hands are the announced aims ot the
foundation in China. Three of the
main buildings of the Peking Union
Medical college will be opened this
fall.
College Building Exported
The project to build the Shang
hai Medical College has been under
consideration since 1915, but the dif
ficulty of obtaining materials from
abroad has prevented the beginning
of building; The Rockefeller foun
dation is expected to decide at its
December meeting when- work will
be started on the Shanghai institu
tion. -
Pending the completion of the new
schools, in addition to its other ac
tivities the China Medical Board has
been granting fellowships and schol
arships to medical missionaries for
study in the United States and has
been aiding native physicians, nurs
es and students to pursue courses In
American schools. The expenditure
