SIR EDWARD
CROWE'S RETIREMENT
"Valuable Services To
British Trade"
LORD NUFFIELD'S WORRIES INCREASED
BEGGING LEtters from ALL PARTS
OF THE WORLD
Lord Nuffield, who confessed that he had not the fogglest notion" of the extent of his gifts to charity.
Sir Edward Crowe retired from the office of Comptroller-General | except that they totalled more of the Department of Overseas Trade recently.
Mr. R. B. Dunwoody, secretary of the Association
British of Chambers of Commerce, wrote to Sir Edward Crowe on September 18. expressing the regret with which the members of the execu- tive council of the association had heard of his intended retirement. The letter continued: "They re- call the many valuable services which you have rendered to Bri- tish trade, not only in the Far East but in the department from which you are now retiring, and they desire me to convey to you the very best thanks of this asso- clation and to its affiliated cham- bers in their efforts to promote British trade."
In a letter of thanks, Sir Ed- word-Crowe-saldi-"During-the- whole of my service abroad, and later on in the Department of Overseas Trade. I have received nothing but kindness and help from the members of your asso- clation and from individual chambers of commerce. It has been of the greatest benefit to me to be able to rely on the valuable advice so readily given, and "trust that you will be good enough to continue to extend to my suc- cessor. Mr. T. St. Quintin Hill, the same kind treatment, which you have always shown to me.
I
"May I. in conclusion. thank you for the very generous help his which you have given, to. Majesty's Overseas Services by "means of your Consular Scholar- ship Scheme? I know how great ly it fias been appreciated.":
Sir Edward Crowe has been presented with a radio set from the Department on his retirement after 40 years' service. In 1897, at the age of 20, he was sent as a student interpreter to Japan where latterly for seven years he was Commercial Counsellor to the Embassy at Tokyo. Sir Edward Crowe has been Comptroller- General of the Department of Overseas Trade since 1928. The presentation was made by Mr. E R.

He was discussing the announce- ment of his latest benefaction, his £1,000,000 gift to Oxford Univérsi- ty for the creation of a new college and the endowment of Fellowships.

for his
Explaining the reasons. announcement that he could not consider any further benefactions at present, he added:
"The worry from giving is too great: it passes all understanding. One can do so much harm by giving money away in the wrong direction.
WORLD-WIDE REQUESTS
"After
the announcement of any gift, I am written to from all over the world. The requests for money come from individuals and organisations alike. I have had letters from Central Africa and from the East, many of them obvi- ously, written by professional let-
ter-writers.
"When you have made a gift, you are the man to be shot at by every- body who thinks he would like some money. People with stacks

"I never answer a letter from my own private address, and I never open a letter at home unless I ́re- cognise the handwriting. For the past 12 months, I have been gel- ting an average of 200 letters a day, nearly all of them asking for money.
"I make a point of rejecting these inopportune applications. Frankly. I am rather short with people who stop me in the street. I have been stopped many times by people who should know better. "For these reasons I must em- phasise that from now onwards I cannot acknowledge these requests, or answer correspondence which my present gift may provoke."
Lord Nuffield explained the mo- tives which prompt his generosity. "I just feel that it is up to anyone who has more than he requires to help those who are less fortunate,"
He said.
"In particular, I like to help those health is not such as I myself possess.
