BANK 4IBT “RUMOR"
I John D.’s Publicist Hasn’t Heard of Ril
lion-Dollar New York IngtutlM,
J New York World. T
I A rumor tbat Henry Ford and John D.
i Rockefeller will be partners in a sl,-
| 000,000,000 bank soon to be. opened here
i gained the dignity of print in one morn
' ing newspaper yesterday, was taken up
| by afternoon newspapers and. gave finan
i cial New York a topic of conversation
| for several hours. *
i Confirmation of h was not forthcoin
i ing from trustworthy sources, however.
| No member Os the Rockefeller family
could be reached for a statement, but Ivy
Lee, who is publicity representative of
Rockefeller interests, was inclined tto
discredit the possibility of such a project.
The World reached him by telephone at
the Westcheater-Riltmore Country Club,
where he had gone for the week-end. .
‘•This is absolutely the first mention I
•have heard of it.” he said. “II such an
undertaking had been under consideration
I am inclined to think I would have
heard of it before it reached the general
public.”
It \Cas freely admitted that Mr. Ford
has mouey enough to start a billion dol
lar bank all by himself if he wishes to.
The latest report of the Ford Motor C,o.
i showed liquid assets in cash and securi
| ties totaling $200,000,000. In addition
i there are huge shops and assembling
1 plants scattered all over the world, and
\ a great selling organization that peiie
i trates into every city, town and hamlet
in the United States.and all the larger
cities of Europe, and spreads to every
part of the civilized world.
Mr. Ford controls money enough to
make a negr bank, or some old bank with
which he might affiliate, crowd others
for banking laurels.
Heretofore he has not been friendly to
New York banks. A few years ago when
he needed $l(X),OO0,<)0o he turned all
eastern institutions down and got the
money from Western banks. He had no
difficulty in borrowing all he wasted
there. In fact, he has had more trouble
finding banks willing to accept his huge
deposits and pay him interest on them
than in securing loans.
Once, it is related, he sent several mil
lions to a bank in Windsor, Canada, and
forgot the deposit until the tax collector
demanded nearly all of it for taxes.
Because of his announced hostility. New
Y'ork bankers yesterday found It diffi
cult to visualize Mr. Ford as a colleague.
A minute,'a corclessnces can undo a
whole day's work.

MINISTERS POORLY TRAINED,
CHURCH REPORT REVEALS j
Survey of tfil Seminaries S.iows Many
Untouched by the Growth of Learn-
New World.
Theological semnaries are sharply ar
raigned for the inferiority of their work
and of their teaching and student ma
terial in a report °f 450 pages issued
yesterday by the Institute of Social and
Religious Research.
The report is based on a survey of
161 seminaries by Robert L. Kelly, LL.
D., under the supervision of a special ad
visory committee of churchmen and edu
cators.
The institute which sponsors the re
port had as its o eers Dr. John R.
Mott, chairman 1 Ip. Ernest D. Burton,
secretary - Raymond B. Fosdlck, treasu
rer; Dr. James L. Barton, Dr. W. H.
V. Faunee and Dr. Kenyon L. Butter
field, with Galen M. Fisher as executive
secretary.
“Facts available do not justify the
widespread opinion,” the report says,
“that there'is a falling off ih the num
ber of men studying for the' ministry
of Protestant white churches. There
are approximately 41,000 theological stu
dents in the l " United States, or one for
j every 2,000 church members.
! "The main problem is not one of num-
Ibers but of quality. Less than half
of the 7,500 students whose records were
analyzed hud college degrees. Some
■ seminaries do not even list high school j
J graduation as an entrance require-
I me'nt.
“Many of the men pot only do not
have the previous training usually de
manded; they do not have the native
ability to-'harry on successfully ad im
portant a task as that of the ministry.
They are often mediocre men. In many
raises they are men who have failed at
other kinds of work.
“Stud libraries were sometimes fouud
locked and unheated, with little to in
dicate workshop conditions. The lec
tures he«ril were often rhetorical, ramb
ling sernions. Some of the seminaries
are virtually untouched by the progress
and methods' of science. They are cpn
-1 ducted on the assumption that scighce
and religion occupy mutual exclusive
fields.
' Seminaries as a group do not know
how their money is apetlt. ' If they
know they do not tell. The books of
a large number • need ' overhauling, and
modern methods of accounting need to
be introduced. Many financial reports
are well-nigh worthless because of fla
grant inaccuracies.”
