Growth of student populations is accompanied by growth of gifts for education
By Jtue Bogut

NEW YORK (UPI) -The
growth in the student population
of the United States has been
accompanied by a growth in
allotment of the corporate gift
dollar to education, a new sur
vey disclosed today.
The National Industrial Con
ference Board reported in a re
view ot the corporate philan
thropy of 465 firms, large and
that the names of surveyed
companies would remain confid
ential. One of the firms reported to
tal gifts to educational as well
as other causes, of $15 million
in a single year. At least three
reported donations of $7 million.
New Emphasis
John Watson, who piloted the
survey for the NICB, said that
at least a share of the change
in emphasis could be laid to the
small, that education had taken j work of groups which campaign
over ine numupr one spoi irom tor corporate donations to ed
health and welfare as the ben
eficiary. The board began its
analysis of the corporate gift
dollar shortly after World War
H. and found that for the first
time education had come to the
top among recipients.
Contributions by the survey
firms totaled $154 million, or
about one-tlu'rd of all corporate
giving last year, ine survey

2.9
man-hours of labor. In 1910-14,
the requirement was 4.6 man
hours, and in 1935-39, the re
quirement was 3.2 man-hours.
The man-hours necessary to
produce 100 pounds of live hog
in 1960-62 were 2.2. In 1910-14
they totaled 3.6, and in 1935-39
they totaled 3.2.
In 1935-39. production of 100
pounds of broilers required ex
penditure of 8.5 man-hours of
labor. In 1960-62, this labor re
quirement had shrunk to one.
The department has extended
to April 1, 1964. the deadline
for filing comments on a pro
posed modification of the offi
cial U.S. standards for grades
of carcass beef. The agency
said it extended the initial
deadline from Nov. 18 at the re
quest of many segments of the
livestock and meat industry.
Under the proposed modifica
tion, there would be no change
in the evaluation of beef car
cass quality and conformation.
Their characteristics would be
considered in determining the
quality designation of a car
cass, such as prime, choice,
and good.
The only change proposed Is
that a cutability designation
would be included as part of
the grade of carcass beef. The
cutability designations would
range from 1 to 5. The number
1 would identify carcasses of
the highest retail cut-out yield
and value, and the number 5
would identify those of the lowest.

Although the largest share of
corporate donations went to ed

those surveyed gave to health
and welfare agencies, the NICB
said.
Watson said that in conduct

some cases where stockholders,
at annual meetings, opposed the
amounts of philanthropic aid
from their corporations, but that
generally they realized that it
was an area of mutual benefit.

that education now took about
41.9 cents of the corporate dol
